[There's some voice mail and it's from Ai Thao! She sounds apprehensive...]

Hello, this is Ai Thao Kha. Rock Lee, if you've received this message, could you contact me by video soon? Thank you.

[There's that matter of memory exchanging that needs to be talked about...]

[Within the hour, Rock Lee responds, and in video form as requested. He looks excited.]

Ah... Ai-san! I hope that I contacted you in a timely manner! Hello!

How are you, Ai-san? What a delightful coincidence to hear from you!

[There's that unusual optimism at work again... Ai is able to greet him with a smile though.]

I'm fine, thank you for asking. In light of what's been happening to a several others though, it could be a lot worse.

To several others? ...Ah, yes, others do seem to be troubled, but I am not sure why.

You know, I should tell you sometime about the dream I had last night! You, of all people, were involved in it, Ai-san!

[Oh, no...]

That's actually what I wanted to talk to you about. Something similar has been occurring to a few other people and I believe I also had a dream that involved you in it.

Ooh! Is that so? What was I doing in it? [It's nice that everyone's dreaming about their friends!]

Mm... I say it's a "dream," but honestly it felt too vivid to be one.

What I saw was you, when you were... younger? You looked younger at least.

Vivid? Ah, yes my dream was very vivid and intense as well... very unusual!

So you saw me looking younger... It must have been very pleasant! Was I working hard?

You could say that! So you were always diligent weren't you?

That's right! When I was younger, I often got in over my head... but to make it as a ninja, I've always had to work hard! That's how I became strong.

Is everyone a ninja where you're from...? It looked like a whole group had gathered together for a huge even of some sort.

[~~what's with the dorky metal bands i mean~~]

Not every person, but a large number of our village! Most villagers know at least the basics...

A huge event, you say? Was it a celebration or a competition?

I think you were all being tested...

... Er... I apologize for changing the topic slightly, but you said I was in your dream. What did you see?

I wonder if it was like the chunin exams!

Ah, yes, my dream. The dream was... very intense and action-packed. You had your comrades with you and fought an fearsome foe! In this dream, you had unusual powers, too... and your comrades were all hurt very badly.

[Oh.

OH.

Her expression falls and his answer makes her silent.]

... I see.

I... I am sorry if my dream bothers you...

It's no trouble!

[They don't even know each other that well, but now he's seen a facet of her memory of her most hated moment. Not that he seems to realize it was an actual thing that happened... But Ai still feels guilty, as if she had been caught red handed.

In any case...]

Um, if it isn't too much to ask, there's no need to bring that up again. It was a dream after all, right?

Er... of course! [He says with ignorant bliss.] The action in it was very intense, so I would not want others to feel disturbed by it...

I can let it remain forgotten, like the many dreams of youth!
