Chapter 2- Ryyu Koori
I looked away from the Kazekage, sorting the thoughts in my head. "They attacked me last night at about eleven. I had just gotten home from a long day of work and I was weak from hunger and chakra use. I ran as fast as I could towards Sunagakure, but I knew I wasn't going to make it by just running. I turned around to fight them and ended up backing into one of them. He kicked me and I lost consciousness," I said, a hand moving to my broken ribs.
The Kazekage noticed my injury with a frown, "So how did you manage to get away?" He looked at me suspiciously.
"Kazekage Yondaime, you know what a jinjuriki is right?" I said.
Yondaime frowned at me and nodded for me to go on. He was looking at me differently now and I didn't like it at all.
"Well," I said with a smile, "I'm not a jinjuriki."
The Kazekage stared at me for a while then said, "What the hell?" the anger was building up visibly on his face.
Before he could get any madder at me, I interrupted, "I am something just as odd as a jinjuriki. Maybe even more odd, at least everyone knows what a jinjuriki is right?" I smiled.
He looked at me calculatingly for a bit. "What are you then?" he seemed interested again. I understood why he would be interested, it was the very reason I kept my secret from Pain so well. I never would have gotten away from Amegakure if he had've known. This was different though, Suna wasn't evil like Ame was as far as I knew.
So I decided to tell him, "I am a mutant of sorts," I said. The Kazekage was quiet and I knew he wanted me to explain more. I sighed. "There was a man named Ryyu Nosuke. He was a genius and he once knew Orochimaru," when I said the snake man's name, Yondaime almost looked…guilty. "Nosuke got the idea from Orochimaru really. Whenever Orochimaru would go on some rant about how one day he would make mutants and change the human race, Nosuke listened.
"Nosuke came from a family line that had a fondness for dragons. His life's ambition was creating a human dragon hybrid," I paused in my explanation to see an intrigued looking Kazekage. I wondered if he could see where this was going. "Nosuke studied and experimented for most of his life. When he wasn't experimenting, he was looking for a dragon. One day he went to one of his family's estates in the Land of Snow. According to legend, the Ice Dragon or Ryyu Koori lived there. He found her and was able to use one of his family's secret jutsus, Tougyo Ryyu (dragon control). Nosuke made the Ice Dragon fly him to his home in the Land of Earth.
"Once there, his plan was all ready to fall into place. My parents were poor, they allowed Nosuke to morph me with a dragon because he promised them it would make me a splendid ninja," my voice almost cracked as I talked about my parents and Yondaime waited. "The evil man slowly mixed our DNA…he did all sorts of terrible things I'm sure. In the end, he sealed Koori inside of me," I looked at the Kazekage.
Yondaime was very good at keeping his emotions a secret. Anyone would have been shocked by my story, but he just sat there. The man sighed, "So I am still left asking, how did you get away?"
The answer was obvious to me and he probably understood already, but he still had to ask, "Koori took over my brain and got us out of there. We kind of share a brain, though I am still in control. I actually haven't heard from her since the attack last night," I said frowning. I searched for Koori again and could feel her on the edge of my consciousness. She could hear me but wasn't able to talk to me just yet.
The Kazekage looked at me weirdly at the last part, "You share a brain with it? The dragon demon doesn't try to take control of you?"
This man was starting to worry me. He believed every odd thing I said about the dragon being sealed in me, all the mutant stuff, listened to everything I said with no comment at all, but when it was about us sharing a brain he got weirded out? What a strange man.
"Koori isn't a demon," I said, "She is actually pretty nice, well when she isn't angry. She doesn't like you by the way," I added with a grin.
I wasn't sure if the Kazekage was ok. He looked kinda pale from our conversation and a little stressed. Only one thing was for sure, this man would probably never let me leave his village after learning my secret. Joy. My heart sunk as I realized that my freedom was gone again.
Yondaime called for my nurse. "Satomi," he said when she entered the room.
The nurse or 'Satomi' as I had just learned bowed, "Yondaime Kazekage," she said respectfully.
"I need this girl moved to a more secure room," he said. "She is more than I imagined. Please let me know when she is fully healed," the Kazekage said.
Satomi nodded, her black ponytail bobbing slightly, "Yes sir, I understand." She bowed again as the Kazekage left the room. Satomi walked up to me, "Sorry, but moving you will be easier this way," I understood her a little too late. She pulled a needle from behind her back and stabbed my arm with it. My scream was choked off with an overwhelming tiredness. The last thing I saw was a fake frown plastered on her evil little face.
I know these chapters have been pretty short but hey, at least I updated one day after the other right? Lol, hope you enjoy! :)
Please review, it would be much appreciated. What do you think about Nikkaya so far? Is her story too unbelievable? Let me know what you think, and thanks for reading!
