It had bin a while since Ritsuko last had visited the forest. She hadn't bin here since her last encounter with the two older shinobi who told her she shouldn't play here. After that she told her uncle about it, and he forbid her to come in the forest. He had watched her a lot since that, making sure she wouldn't sneak out into the forest, so it had bin near impossible for her to come here. But today he didn't pay much attention to her, it seemed like he trusted her when she said she wouldn't near her the forest again. She had gotten the opportunity to sneak out here, after her uncle left for work. Her brother was at home, but he was swallowed up in his training and hadn't noticed when she went off. She was going to get so much trouble if her uncle found out she was here, she just had to get home before lunch and then tell her brother she just went off to play with some friends, and he was to busy training to notice she left. If he would believe that, he probably already knew she didn't have any friends, other than the boy Daisuke she met last week, but her brother didn't know about him. She just hoped that she could get away with sneaking out this once, this forest was like her second home but her uncle just didn't get that.
This was were Ritsuko would be, when she wanted to remember her mother. The only thing she remembered about her mother was them walking in this forest together, and she wasn't going to let go of that, not even if her uncle told her not to come here. If he could just understand how much this forest meant to her. She kicked a tree. "Stupid old man, whats dangerous about this forest anyway" she mumbled in anger. Well she hadn't come out here to be mad, she wanted to have a nice time, maybe she could even find her little friend too, not the squirrel, it was pretty dead, but the little bird. Ritsuko cheered up by the thought, she was going to the place were she encountered the two shinobi, and were she before that had bin playing with the bird.
she jumped eagerly through the forest, and hit every leave she could reach at her way. She arrived at the little lake, it was just as pretty as last time and she couldn't even see were she had bin laying, rolling around and crushing the flowers. She leaned up against a tree and enjoyed the view. In front of her she saw images of her and her mother on a picnic, surrounded by animals. Both her and her mom, had something with animals, they really liked each other. Another image went through her mind, her playing in the lake and her mother sitting at the edge of the lake, with only her feet in the water. She had some pretty good memories from this forest.
As she stood and got overwhelmed with old memories she almost forgot about why she had come here, to see her friend again. Maybe if she lay down the same place as before, the bird would appear. So that was what she did. Almost like no time had passed, playing in the flowers like a month ago, the encounter with the two shinobi hadn't happened, and her uncle hadn't forbidden her to be in the forest. Though it was just fantasy it was a nice though, just wishing it all away.
