It was around 6 a.m. when Hotaru finally made it to the Villiage Hidden in Steel. It took them about a day to get get there, Hotaru and many others were exhausted. There were a lot of empty houses, she figured they were vacant since the villiage must be new. Hotaru jumped when an announcer came up, "'''Welcome to the Villiage Hidden in Steel, to acquire a house, you must sign here and we shall assign you one. The houses are all furnished and ready for you to live in. Please form an orderly line here." '''The announcer gestured infront of him where he wanted the line to be formed. Citizens scrambled into the line, trying to get the good houses before anyone else did. There was shoving, kicking, pushing, anything but nonviolence. Hotaru managed to get near the front of the ling; near being about 600 people infront of her.

As indiviuals began to try and cut, she merely eblowed them and glared. "Don't you dare cut." she'd growl, glaring at them. How could adults turn into children in mere seconds? They were all going to the same place, the houses were all furnished too; so what was the problem?

The line moved forwards slowly, one family by one gaining their brandnew house. She wasn't surprised by how many young adults there were, most of them hated the new Hokage anyway. How does she know? She hears it at night. Hotaru shuffled forward, there was about 300 infront of her now, and it was already 8:00. Hotaru began to tap her foot impatiently as she crossed her arms under her chest, such was a price to pay for moving.

To pass the time, she began to think about how she'd be able to get to Obelisks hide out. She did say she'd go, but she didn't think it was an option anymore. There were bound to be Anbu watching out for an attack. She figured she'd just write a letter, but she ddin't know how the postal service worked here. "I could ask the albino..." she thought to herself, shuffling forwards slightly from the shortening of the line. She felt somewhat ashamed, she still didn't know the guys name. If she were to meet him, how would she even go about it? 'Hey albino man! What do I do about this letter?' She shook her head, that'd probably be the worst introduction. 'Hello sir, I'm sorry to bother you since you're most likely busy but how does the postal service work here?' She nodded in satisfaction, perfect -- wait. Why bother him in the first place? She figured she'd just ask the front desk or something.

Hotaru sighed to herself as she shuffled forward once more as her thoughts wandered again. This time landing on Obelisk. She was still upset that he had to leave her again, but she knew he had to do this; curiosity killed the cat, satisfaction brought it back. She hoped he knew how to get to the village, she didn't like the idea of him getting lost. Hotaru shifted her weight onto her other leg since it was beginning to fall asleep. What would she do if he did make it? Celebrate? She figured she'd cook for him..or give him the cold shoulder. "No...that'd be harsh..." she thought to herself. Thought, he kind of deserved it for being gone for so long, but hey, he came back didn't he? She wasn't going to be alone anymore if he made it to the village. Hell, maybe the bags under her eyes will go away and she'll get more sleep with him back. She did feel more relived, less stressed. It was a miracle she didn't get gray hairs from how much she was worrying. Hotaru yawned, a good nights sleep did sound good.

Another 3 hours passed, making it 11:00. She was now in the top 10. She began fiddeling with her ninja band unknowingly, as she stared off into space. Once she snapped back to reality, she looked down at her ninja band. "I should probably take this off..." she thought, reaching behind her head to untie the band. Hotaru looked down at it and started to reminise when she first got it. Her father had been so proud of her. "My little Nana, a shinobi! You're going to make me proud, right?" he had said. She wondered what he was going to do about her absence. She was the clan leaders daughter afterall, so of course he already knew. Her brother Niko on the other hand was a different story. He most likely didn't care, her absence secured his position for clan leader.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Next." called the announcer, Hotaru shot her head up; it was finally her turn. She quickly walked up to the desk where the realators were, they looked exhausted. "Name, and how many of you are there?" they asked. "Hotaru Hyūga, just me." She replied, holding up her satchel. The realator nodded and wrote the information down before handing her a set of keys. "Walk over the bridge behind me, head down 3 blocks. You're right next to the woods, a one story house on the right. Also, take this map." The realator handed her a map of the village. Hatoru nodded, and took the map and keys. "Thank you." she said, bowing in appreciation. She walked out of the line and towards the bridge that was behind them, finally, she has somewhere to sleep. She decided she'd go shopping for produce after her letter and slumber.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">In no time, Hotaru found her home near said woods. "Looks like a good place for hiding...or training." she said to herself. She walked up to her new, one story house. It was quaint to be honest, small but detailed. Hotaru opened her front door and stepped in, getting hit with the smell of fresh house. She looked around the room, a few steps in she'd be in the living room with a kitchen behind it. There was a hallway straight ahead to indicate her room and bathroom. "I like it." she stated, taking off her sandals and setting the map on the small counter next to the door. Hotaru locked the front door as she walked towards her room, once in there, she saw a desk; something she's never had before.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Hotaru sat at her new desk and pulled out a pen and paper, as well as an envelope. "Better start now if I want to catch the post office.." she muttered, beginning to start on her letter to her beloved. She wrote the basics: How she was, where she was, and why she can't meet him at his hide out. As she wrote her letter, she couldn't help but wonder how comfy her new bed was. <ac_metadata title="Settling in, Hotaru&#039;s new life."> </ac_metadata>
