Taken
Angel of Anime
Prologue:
She hung her head lowly, clutching her left side with her right hand. It wasn't until she lifted her face that they realized just how badly injured she was. Thin lines of red liquid streamed out of each corner of her mouth. Wary eyes marked that the girl had pushed herself more than half-way past her limits just to deliver the message that had been nagging at her since yesterday.
"They've taken him," she whispered so low and raucously that most of them in the room had to read her cracked lips or lean forward to understand. "They've taken Keitaro…" After uttering those last words, she collapsed onto the green tiled floor.
Upon closer inspection, the six rather appalled people in the large room could see a crimson-stained hand, from holding her bleeding side. Her dark hair was a ratted mess and her pale complexion was even paler from loss of blood. Numerous deep cuts and scratches covered her flesh, as well as bruises and dirt on her clothing; which also had many rips and holes in them. However, no one saw the greatest of all wounds until the young girl was picked up to be placed on a stretcher and her hand fell limply to her side. The young and inexperienced Medic Nin holding her form gasped and nearly dropped her. In her abdomen was a clean-cut void, three inches thick, in front of her left kidney and ending a mere centimeters from her right.
That was when a very important-looking man with blond hair ordered loudly and urgently, "Get this child to the hospital immediately!" His command was obeyed without any further delay, and when everyone that was there had gone, his hands were behind his back as he let out a rueful sigh. I thought she could handle her mission, he thought, gazing out the window at the night sky.
A/n: I really like my prologue. Next chapter Naruto and the team come in! I really might sort of have to modify some personalities, such as Sai's and Yamato's because I don't know what they'd say exactly, but I'll try my best. Thanks for reading!
