Chapter 2: Escaping is always better in two's
My heart was racing, any harder and it would break my chest. The corridor seemed endless, I had come to an intersection but I had continued to run down the same corridor. I had been running for about 20 minutes. Great; so if they didn't capture me, I was going to collapse of exhaustion and pain from my headache.
After what felt like half an hour of running the corridor broke off into a rock like cavern. Panting heavily, I stopped frozen. I heard a voice; I pressed myself up against the wall.
A red headed girl with glasses was examining over a boy strapped to a table, turning her back to fill a needle with some purplish liquid. She replaced the needle back on the table, replacing the needle with a scalpel.
I scanned the room; it looked like they were the only two people in the cavern, there was no way out here. I looked over at the black haired boy tied to the table, he swore and threatened her.
I had to leave, but could I leave the boy with her? It's not like I could help him, I wasn't even strong enough to protect myself. I couldn't leave him like this, I needed a plan. She seemed to ignore him his threats, her head snapped up and she looked straight at me.
Adrenaline coursed through me, I sprang up and ran at her. I tried to recall any justsu's but nothing was coming to me. I threw at punch at her head, she slipped to the left. Missing her by an inch I slammed my elbow into her face. She fell to the ground cupping her nose with her hands, blood covering her fingers. My elbow was aching from the impact.
"YOU STUPID BITCH!, I THINK YOU JUST BROKE MY NOSE" she screamed at me
"That's not the only thing I will break, if you don't answer my questions" I warned her, my voice sounding really hoarse
"Where am I?, why am I here? And where's the exit?"
"How did you escape?" she whimpered
"Answer me!" I yelled at her
"KAB...!" I broke off her scream with my hand covering her mouth.
Keeping one hand over her mouth and her head rested against my forearm, I reached for the needle.
"Tell me what I want to know or I will inject you with this, scream again and I will kill you" I warned for the last time.
I removed my hand from her mouth and wrapped my arm around her neck, resting the needle slightly pressed into her neck. The blood from her nose running down her face, she looked paler.
"You are in Otogakure; you were here being studied because you have the kurama clan's kekki genkai. The exit is about 20 minutes walk and left at the intersection at the end"
Who is the kurama clan? And what is the kekki genkai?, so many more questions raised themselves in my head. I didn't have time for this now.
"How many people are here now?" I asked
"Just me and Kabuto" good, so there was only two of them here.
"Kabuto, is he the grey haired man? And what's my name?" I demanded
"Yes. I don't know, my name is Karin. All I know is your last name is kurama" she replied
"Can you untie me?" I looked back at the black her boy lying on the table
I looked down at Karin
"I am going to release you, you are going to untie him and if you try anything I will inject you with the needle"
A small cry escaped her lips; blinking back tears she murmured agreement.
We both rose slowly I released my hold on her but left the needle pressed against her neck.
She wiped her nose, the blood staining her purple sleeves. Watching her movements carefully, my exhaustion became to kick in with my left hand holding the needle I rested my right against the table, holding myself up. I looked over at the boy he closely he had longish black hair cut into short and long layers and had deep amber eyes; he looked older than me and taller.
He was half untied; he began to untie his left side while she finished the right. Black spots began to flicker across my vision; Karin began to sense the pressure of the needle decrease.
She twisted out and grabbed a scalpel stabbing me in my right shoulder. I slammed the needle, injecting the liquid into her neck. She had another scalpel in hand ready for attack, the guy pulled her left arm back and that was all the opening I needed I punched her face as hard as I could. She fell to the ground unconscious.
He stood up from the table, walking over towards me.
"Thanks" he smiled
I nodded and returned his small smile. I felt really light headed trying to grip the table for support, I knees gave way and I fell to the ground.
He wrapped his arms under my shoulders and pulled the scalpel out. Pulling me into his arms he began running to head towards the exit.
Could I trust him? So many problems now faced me. I tried to fight my exhaustion but darkness over took my vision and I black out
