I don't own Naruto… if I did, Hayate would be happily married with kids.

Dance of the Crescent Moon

We are the dark ones who walk the night alone.

Life is too short to be spent in the shadow – so I elected to stand as the light – dear heart – now looking back – I see how dim I stood – weak, faltering – as dead as the moon – yes, dying – no hope of a legacy – except what you will carry forever in your heart – the midnight is taking over – we are the dark ones who walk in the shadows – but even there – the blackest hell – our united hearts stand – is found the comfort of a fire – fire of love and of friendship – the flame of the leaf which burns forever – that's why I'm here, isn't it? – standing frozen, looking into dark eyes – fighting for hope – I give it and hold none for myself – I only pray that this weak vessel will be a warning – a dull light – but a guiding flame – after all, am I not the moon? – and this is my dance – so – let us dance then – to the death – and I have no fear in that last second – I see your face, dear heart – no longer my opponent – but your dark tresses and rosy lips – and the mask you have to wear to hide your heart – there is cold – there is dark – there is -

We are the dark ones who walk the night alone.

I am the moon.

I am the cold.

I pass through the door.

And light fills my soul.
