[001] Accidental Audio

[redhotmama]

[There is a book laying on a near by table that Kushina doesn't see as she rushes toward the window. The first rustle of wind doesn't even jostle the pages, however when she flings the window open, the book flies open with it. There's a moments pause as Kushina takes in the contents of outside, the chill in the air, the foreign feel. The first thing she deems to greet Luceti with is:]

WHERE IS MINATO!? This isn't..!

[But then her angry heart-felt cry stops, the words dying mid-sentence as a wave of emotion tears into her. Whatever anger she felt quickly faded in lieu of grief. A loud bang against the window's frame and the rattle of glass.]

Naruto... Minato...

[It's quiet and sounds as though Kushina is on the verge of tears, if not already crying.]

This isn't the afterlife, I know it. It doesn't feel right. It's too real. I shouldn't be able to feel pain, y'know!

[Kushina slumps to the floor, the sound reverberating softly in the near-empty room. What was she supposed to do here? What was this place, even? It wasn't where she was supposed to be. Nowhere had ever felt more wrong in her life.]

[Good thing Naruto is amazingly manly enough to save his tears... for when his mom actually gets to the door. All bets are off once that goes down.]

Alright, alright! Lemme try my best! [Naruto falls quiet for a moment, trying to figure out how to relay directions to his mom when he has no idea where she is. For all he knows, she could be upstairs.

Let's try it like this.] Uh... mind steppin' outside so we can figure out where you are? Unless you're already in the first community building, 'cause that's where I'm stayin'.

[There's pretty much no hesitation as she turns swiftly and makes her way to the door. There's a pair of shoes - her's - lying on the floor that she slips quickly into, before she practically yanks the door open. She takes a moment to note the door she came out of, notices the number on it being '12', before she's hauling it closed again.]

Wherever I am, my room's 12, if that helps?

[Then she's descending one flight of stairs, then another, and soon she's on the landing of the last flight, three floors down. She's out the doors before she realizes, much too excited to not rush. What mother wouldn't be?]

The building said 2, I'm not far! ...Am I?

[jinchuuriki]

No way, seriously!? That's real close! Closer than I thought you'd be! [Naruto's laughter comes out of nowhere. Mostly from the excitement because... well, he's about to meet his mother. For real. Not like before at home, however short that was and however awesome she was.

No, this is for real.] Okay, this'll be a cinch! You're right across the river, so you've gotta follow the road across the bridge, and the big building's where I'm at!

[Oh! Almost forgot.] Second floor, room six! [This gives him ample time to tidy up. Since he's got a ton of garbage and old ramen stuff and... crap.]
