Akatsuki Daughter
I've spent most of my life as I know living an ordinary life in the village. I've never made many friends. I find it hard to trust anyone. If I do then I always end up hurt. The only person I've kept close is myself. Another problem in my life is fitting in. No matter what I do it never works out. I'm not strong enough or pretty enough its always something wrong with me. Sometimes I just sit and think to myself, I don't fit in or do I belong somewhere else? And I think on those thoughts, wondering if there is somewhere else I belong. There must be a better life. Even if life is stressful I keep the couple of people I know close at hand but not too close.
In another part of the world in a lair hidden far, far away a meeting was being held amongst several dark cloaked figures. They stood in a circle silent until one decided to speak. "Seek out this girl and bring her here. You'll find her approaching the forest. Cut her off there." Quick as a flash the other members vanished.
Just as the shadowy man had said I approached the forest for whatever I was going out there for soon was forgotten. Something didn't feel right. Then I saw one of them and then surrounded. I could feel unfriendly faces all around me. His face shadowed by the forest coming at me before I could say a word of defend myself he grabbed me up clamping a hand over my mouth and with his other hand made a sign. In seconds we were transported from the forest to a base.
Still in darkness I found myself in a dim light. I wasn't alone,. Eyes shone from the shadows and voices surrounded me, terrible voices. I could vaguely make out their whispering. "Who is she?" "She looks weak." "Should we kill her?"
"Whatever the reason," One said to the rest. "One of us has to take her to him." "This is such a waste of time." Another complained. "Do you want to be the one to do it? Let's get this over with." A silence before one took a step forward. "Welcome to the Akatsuki Base." I stared at the dark figures as they appeared to be circling me the hushed whispers starting again. "Why am I here?" I asked. "Leader wishes to see you." he replied. "Who's going to take her?" "I'll take her." There were no arguments. Strange how these members of an organization who call themselves Akatsuki don't want the mission of taking a girl from one place to another.
A member a little taller than I lead me down a hallway. He had long dark hair pulled back in a low ponytail, a cold face and red eyes. "Who are you? Why did you take me here?" He glanced over at me not saying anything other than, "Hn." I decided that he wasn't going to answer any questions so I kept quiet with my worried thoughts. "Hurry up." he said. I looked up at him picking up my pace keeping by his side. I wished I knew where I was, all I knew is this this was the Akatsuki Base but that didn't tell me much. This could be anywhere.
After a short time we stood in front of a door. He knocked. "Enter." Came a voice from the other side of the door. He opened the door nudging me inside. "You can go." He nodded then closed the door. I didn't know what to do. I had been kidnapped, standing in a strange place with strange people. "Come closer." Came the same voice from behind a desk. I took a step closer. "Don't be afraid, come a little closer." I took another step forward. "Hmm…. How you've grown. It was time you came here. And I can see you've already met one of the group. I am Leader of the Akatsuki." I stood there with a blank face. "I thought you for the talkative type. But then you are, aren't you when you want to be?" "How did you know that? Have you been spying on me?" I finally let words come out. "Not really. I've been looking for you."
The first thought that comes to anyone's mind when taken away to a strange place has to be, what are they going to do to me? "I'm not going to hurt you. I'll make sure the other's don't either." he continued. "Why am I here?" I grew more worried. "There has been a secret lost with the time. I hope you consider this your home. You are of most importance to me. You, yourself are a long lost secret. You are my daughter."
The reason for bringing me all this way was finally reveled. He spoke the words I never in my lifetime expected to hear coming from the Akatsuki Base. Leader of the organization that calls themselves Akatsuki. I am the long lost Akatsuki daughter.
