ok well not much i can say about this except for the fact that it was spur of the moment and i'm not all that sure how everything's gonna go but enjoy nonetheless =P btw this is not a yaoi and it's teen for the language my OC uses.
It was warm outside as always and the breeze was usually wonderful but now the air felt thick. It was thick with anticipation and I was hesitating with what I had to do. I could only stare at my hands folded in my lap. It didn't last long though because I felt him staring at me. I think he knew something was wrong. I think he knew I was about to hurt him. And I knew that it wouldn't be good for either of us. We would be alone forever after this moment.
I looked up with tears forming in my eyes. It hurt to do this but it had to be done. It was to protect him. Or maybe I was being selfish. I didn't care at the time because we were only ten years old. I averted my eyes again to look at my lap.
I heard sniffling to see that Gaara was now crying. I didn't know if he knew what I knew but he was crying anyway.
"Gaara. Never forget how much I love you. Okay?" I held his face in my small hands wiping away the tears streaming down his face. Then I kissed him on the forehead before getting up.
"Why are you leaving me? You're the only one here who doesn't run away."
"Gaara I have to."
"No you don't…..you just hate me. Like all of the others!"
His sand was whipping around me ready to strike.
"Gaara," I looked straight into his eyes. "Gomen."
I had managed to hug him before he got too out of control, which seemed to calm him down and then I ran trying to hide the tears that were now streaming down my face. I tried to run away as fast as I could without looking back but I just couldn't help it. I looked over my shoulder to see Gaara yelling. Yelling for me to come back. Yelling my name.
"Tch." I always woke up at that part of my dream. I angrily looked up at the sky. Silently cursing it. "Ugh. I haven't had a good night's sleep in forever."
I was sitting on a hard bench unable to feel my butt. It went numb again, go figure. I stood up trying to shake it off looking at everyone that passed by. They were all staring at me. I guess I looked funny trying to literally shake off the sleep in my body. The whole staring thing only served to piss me off even more.
"What the hell are you freaks lookin' at! Huh! Do I look funny to you!" My little outburst only served to earn a few chuckles from my passers-by.
"I think for most of these people it's strange just to see a girl as beautiful as you are." I only responded with a snort and I guess it gave this...boy the idea that I wanted to talk to him. "What? You act as if you don't know how beautiful you are."
This time I responded with a glare. I also took the time to take in this boy's appearance. He looked maybe 18 or 19 I couldn't really tell. He had black hair that stopped at his neck with deadly looking golden eyes. He was taller than me by a few inches and I was 5'2 (158.5 cm). I also noticed he had a smirk on his face. From what I didn't know, but I was about to find out.
"What do you want boy?"
"Do you really think you should speak to me like that?"
"I'll speak to you anyway that I please so back off," I stopped to give him a menacing look. "Before I get nasty." He only chuckled at that statement and moved closer to me. I didn't like the feeling I was getting from him, but I knew I could handle him. "What do you want from me freak?"
"My name is Toushi."
"Like I give a fuck what your name is." He was about to respond but was interrupted by a screaming man. Thank the heavens.
"It's you! You stole from my shop yesterday!" I looked up to see a big guy running towards me and sure enough I had taken some food from his shop yesterday.
"Humph." I started running, but not before I flipped him the bird and of course I had to look over to my little friend and flip him one too, which earned me a nice little glare. Honestly I had no idea where I was going all I knew was it felt good to be running.
I ran for a mile or so before I looked over my shoulder only to see the man had stopped chasing me and that the boy was no where to be seen either. I was just too fast for them. Hehehe I always was the fastest in Sunagakure. Well I was the fastest in my class that is. I stopped running after that thought. I didn't like thinking about my past too much. It hurt. It only made things worse.
Thinking about my past was the last thing i wanted to do so I found an empty area near the edge of the village and I slid down the trunk of the tree. I unsheathed my katana and held it up to the light. It was beautiful. It also held a lot of painful memories like my dream. The handle was beautifully carved and the blade had a red fox-like design on both sides. I sat and watched the sun bounce off of the blade and my thoughts wandered to its origin.
I shook my head before I got too deep in thought though.
I sheathed my katana and closed my eyes to let the heat soak into my skin. I loved the warm air. I hated any place that was cold, but that could've come from growing up in Suna. I exhaled a nice long breathe and relaxed. I hadn't been able to feel this relaxed in ages.
"I wouldn't get too comfortable if I were you." Crap. I recognized that voice.
"What do you want Toushi?"
"You remember my name I see and my voice. Interesting." I furrowed my brows while keeping my eyes closed. The irritation I felt only got worse.
"It ain't hard dumb-ass."
"Hm. You sure it isn't because you felt something between us?" I felt him get closer to me and he brushed his hand against my cheek.
Did he just…touch me? On my cheek? The fuck!
"Tch. Don't touch me." I brushed his hand from my cheek, but the minute I did so I felt my face become ice cold. My eyes flew open as I got up into a defensive stance with my hand on the handle of my katana. Toushi was chuckling at me again and I didn't like it one bit.
"Did I scare you little girl?"
"I am NOT a little girl!"
"Maybe not but you are a fool to think you can defeat me."
"I am also not a fool. Perhaps you're the fool. No?"
"Don't play games with me. I know you are weak! You don't have the chakra to fight me."
"Like hell you know me!"
I barely know myself.
"I've had enough of this talk. I think it's time to move on to business."
"What business?" I had only met him today so there was no way we could have any business. Instead of answering me verbally he held out a poster. It was a wanted poster. It was for me.
WANTED
(Ok no picture but I can give you a description.)
(Burnt orange shoulder length hair, with eyes the same color.)
Name: Unknown
Age: 16 or 17
Sex: Female
Bounty: 25,000 ryo
I didn't see a reason why they wanted me and that was fine with me. My picture was also very lacking. They forgot my whiskers and my fox like pupils. This made me frown. Truth be told if the hunters knew the reason and what I really looked like no one would come after me. Also my bounty wasn't that high and the only reason I could think of someone coming after me for this was because they were desperate or they thought I would be an easy catch.
"I see. I have a bounty on my head. Interesting."
"Don't tell me no one else has come after you?"
I decided to play dumb. It was going to be more fun that way.
"Sorry to disappoint you but I haven't."
"Hm. Interesting."
By now we were just staring each other down. He had rolled up the poster and put it back in his pouch that I just noticed he was carrying. It was a weapons pouch. It was also hidden from view because of his jacket thing which is why I hadn't noticed it before now. I on the other hand had my weapon fully exposed…sheathed but you could clearly see what it was. I wasn't really into being sneaky, I did let people underestimate me though. It's not like i told them I was weak or anything, they just assumed.
He smirked at my look of surprise. Then he lunged at me with a kunai. I was slammed into a nearby tree. My head was knocked against the trunk several times. I felt dizzy. I could feel him smiling at me thinking I was down for the count. He then decided to pick me up by my shoulder length hair and slam me into 2 more trees. By now I was close to passing out…or at least that's what I let him believe.
"HA! You can't even use that blade you wield! What a waste!"
I was supporting myself on my arm trying to get up and I grunted. "Shut up! You don't know a damn thing about me!" I felt my anger flare and I charged at Toushi. I rammed him right in the gut with my head.
I left him on the ground gasping for air. He looked like a fish out of water actually. It only made me laugh and that was obviously a stupid thing to do because he got even more angry with me.
"Tch." He wiped the blood from the side of his mouth with the back of his hand. He continued to glare at me. "You bitch! If you think I'm gonna take mercy on you now then you've lost it!"
"Come on. I wanna have some fun." I gave him a cocky grin and drew my katana.
"Cocky bitch."
He did a few hand symbols and we waited. It was strange.
He did the hand symbols but nothing happened. Why was that?
He started to laugh and that made me look at him, except…only my eyes moved. I couldn't feel my face. It felt way too cold to be normal.
"What have you done to me?"
"Simple. Do you know what my name means?"
"Well it means a lot of things."
"Yes it does, but I was named because of my power. My name means 'freezing to death'."
"So you plan on freezing me to death? But how? I didn't see anything."
He grinned at me…that sick, twisted grin.
"It's simple really. Most of my abilities are activated by touch."
"Damn it!" I was seething, my face was burning…but not from embarrassment. I was pissed and that meant it was time for him to die. It was time for me to go all out. I was chuckling now lowering my head as the feeling of being frozen wore off. "You bastard." I was cackling to the sky. "It's time to diiiiie!"
My laugh was nothing short of maniacal.
"What the hell?"
"Aaaaaah! You think you can defeat me? HA! You've lost your mind bastard!"
Another psycho laugh escaped my lips.
I lunged at him with my katana in hand. I didn't go for any area that would kill him in an instant. I wanted him to suffer. I wanted to toy with him.
I slashed his stomach and watched the blood gush out. He screamed in agony. Next I went for his legs and hacked them off. He screamed some more. His arms were next. More screams of pain and agony. More pleasure to my soul. He was on the ground with only a torso, neck, and head left. He should've bled to death but he froze his wounds in hopes of staying alive. Too bad I wouldn't let him. This was too much fun.
I walked over to him and stood over his…hacked apart body and smiled a gruesome smile. I knew the feeling of that smile well and I knew it struck fear into those who saw it.
"W-what a-are you?"
"Your worst nightmare!"
My smile became even more gruesome if that was at all possible.
I stabbed his shoulders with my blade and twisted it as I stabbed him making him cry out in more pain. I laughed again. I was filled with feelings of ecstasy. I wanted more! I stabbed him in the chest and then sliced open his stomach even more watching as the rich red blood poured from his body. He cried out some more.
"By the way I feel I should you this before you die you pathetic worm! There have been others after me and they all have the same fate as you. They all perished by my blade!"
"A-at least tell me the," He flinched in pain, "name of the one who defeats me! Please!" he winced.
"Tch."
"You deny me my d-dying wish?" he was fading fast.
I took my katana and placed it in the ground. I was angry with myself.
"I'm sorry but….I don't know my name."
My anger flared again and with one final strike his head came flying off. His body now limp and unfrozen. He was dead and I was satisfied.
