Chapter 2
"DEIDARA!" I hear someone yell. I hope they don't plan on stopping us from kissing, 'cuz they didn't. Deidara lets me go and I turn around to only find Pain. SHIT! I think. "Deidara, what the fuck do you think you're fucking doing?" he asks angrily. "Um,uh,I,um..." "Pain,stop, he didn't do anything. I-I talked him into it, I promise." "Really, I wouldn't have thought that. This Deidara is a pretty good guy when it comes to little defenceless girls, aren't you DEIDARA?" he says even more mad.
"Pain, he didn't do it. Please listen to me!" I say, getting angry myself. "Myo, stop trying to cover for me. He won't listen." "But it's true and you kno-" "It won't matter. Let me handle this. Keep walking down the hall until there's a split. Take a left and go to the first door you see, okay?" "Yes." I start to walk away, but Pain yells,"Myo, where the hell are you going? Get back here!" "Myo, run!" I turn around before I run. Pain didn't look like himself. I hear screaming, which sounds like Deidara.
I go to the split and run to the left. There isn't a door for a good two or three minutes. When I see it, I stop and open it. I was blinded by the light that came out. I had been in the dark for so long its scary. I walk outside and close the door behind me. I keep walking 'till I come to a road. He never said it'd lead me to a road. which way do I go? I ask myself. I take the right and find it lead to a forest. I kow right then and there I should have taken the left road. It was the village, or what is left, where Pain and I first met.
FLASHBACK
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed. A building was falling and I didn't have time to get away. Crash. Wait, I'm still alive. But how? I thought. Just then I looked up and saw a man standing there, infront of me. He leaned down and helped me up. I looked around him and saw there six otheres there with him. They had apparently stopped the building from falling on top of me.
"Hello, my name is Pain. Are you alright little one?" he asked me. "Um, yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for saving me Pain." I nodded in gratitude. ''Where is your family?" he asked. "Dead," I said looking him straight in the eye. For a minute, it was like we had connected. "Dead you say. Hmm, that's no reason you should be out here where a war is going on." " I have no choice. I was kidnapped and told to fight. If I didn't, my little sister would die."
"Where is she?" a girl asked. "Oh, this is Konan," he said pointing to her. "What's your name?" she asked me. "Myo," I said. "Why do they have you fighting?" she asked. "My power. I'm not normal like my parents had hoped for. I'm the reason all of them are dead and Akane is in trouble," I said trying hard not to cry. "It's not your fault, Myo. This counrty, like all the rest, have problems. Thats why we are here. We try to help solve these problems any way we can. It doesn't always work, but we do our best," she said.
I was happy that someone was finally here to help. "Then can you help me save my sis?" I asked. "Yes we will," Pain and Konan said together.
FLASHBACK GONE
"Oh, why did you have to leave me mother and father? I miss you so much. And little Akane, where are you?" "Myo, you okay?" someone behind me asked. "Ah! Who the -" I say while turning around. "Oh, its you Konan. You scared me." "Sorry. I was just walking and saw you standing here. Did you not know that your village was close to our hideout?" she asks. "If I did, I don't remember. I just wish we had found Akane." "Me too Myo. It isn't easy when your family dies. It takes time for it to heal."
I nod and look down remembering what i promised Akane, "I told her I would find her and we would move somewhere we could be loved." Konan looks at me with sympathy in her eyes, "We all wish for that, Myo, but most are unable to do that. I know your sister is out there somewhere and I'm sure we will find her." I look up at Konan and a sense of peace comes over me and all I can do is smile, "Thank you so much, Konan." She nods and starts to walk back to the hideout while I go and sit upon a tree.
While sitting up there I think of my family and of how Akane seemed to be the normal one out of us both. She used to watch as I practiced controlling my power and being able to make it into a lethal weapon to protect us both. Knowing that one day they would come for us and I would have to stop them. "I failed, I couldn't stop them and they took you... I'm so sorry..."
