Pain. Mind numbing, unbearable pain.

My entire body felt like it was being torn apart slowly, limb by limb. And no matter how hard I tried I could not move to ease it, nor could I make any sound of protest or to call for help. The blackness around me was suffocating, choking me; it prevented me from being able to breathe right. Was I drowning? That thought alone caused my chest to close up, only causing more discomfort.

Just as I was beginning to get used to the pain within myself a wave of fresh new pain washed over my body, taking me down deeper into the black abyss; then I felt nothing once more.


It was hot. Too hot. I felt like my entire body was on fire, and the heat was suffocating me, smothering me. Choking the life from me... But it wasn't. The heat receded a bit and a breeze floated around me. I wasn't so hot anymore... As my senses fully came around, I noted that the pain was gone, or numbed, I really didn't care at that point. I couldn't feel it. I was happy.

I opened my eyes and I saw white... Lots and lots of white. No. It wasn't white it was tan, only looking white in the glare of the sun.

I took a deep breath, which hurt like hell, and I turned onto my side. That's when I noticed the color red among the tan. And it wasn't just a little red. It was a lot. With a sickening feeling growing in my stomach I realized it was blood.

Where did the blood come from?

I was now sitting up on my knees, staring at what I saw. A mini village and it was all covered in a mix of red and tan. Blood and sand; sand and blood.

Why was it covered in blood? And the smell... Ugh... As I was questioning the amount of blood an ungodly terrible smell drifted over me, shocking me. I turned my head slowly, and that's when I saw most of the bodies. They were in a large pile near the gate... And they were on fire. Burning dead flesh.

I'd never smelt anything like it before... It was terrible. I don't think I would have been able to describe the smell even if I wanted to. Before I was really able to analyze anything specific about my situation about twenty Konoha Nin surrounded me.

"Who are you?" One of them demanded. He had graying hair, but that was all I could tell about him as he was in the Special Ops garb... And it completely covered his body. Wasn't he hot?

Before I got a chance to answer the grey haired man another one chimed in, "What business do you have murdering all these people?"

My eyes widened, "Excuse me?" I meant to sound loud and angry, but my voice came out as a tiny frightened squeak.

"I know you killed these people—"

"No!" I interrupted. "I had nothing to do with this! I just—"

"If you had nothing to do with this then why are you covered in their blood?" the grey haired man sneered.

"I don't—"

"You don't know, do you?" a female laughed. I didn't know what was going on and I was getting frustrated.

"I didn't—"

"Shut up!" the grey haired man snapped. "Just come with us..."

I narrowed my eyes and shook my head. "I'm not going anywhere with any of you." I attempted to stand, but my legs didn't agree with me and as soon as I put any sort of pressure on my right side, sharp pain shot all the way down my spine to my ankle. A gasp of pain escaped my lips and I fell blackness dancing across my vision until it veiled me completely.

But as the darkness swept over me one thing matter to me; one thing I needed at this precise moment. One person, rather, that I needed to know was safe. Onee.
