My Frozen Heart
Chapter 3: The Power Of The Hatsuya Clan
Kanna sat in her prison, her breathing was quite heavy and she was feeling a bit dizzy. She didn't understand why this was. "This feeling...is weird...", she murmured, leaning back against the wall and starring up towards the ceiling, "It's like something is slowing down my entire system...". She gasped slightly as she felt a sudden shock from her heart. She reached up to her chest, grasping at it. 'What's going on...?', she thought as her gaze shifted to the door, watching as it opened. She looked away from the Akatsuki member as they brought in a small trey of some food. The member set it down in front of her. Kanna looked towards the food and then up at the member, seeing it was a female. "Eat..", she simply stated before turning and heading back out. Kanna watched her for a moment before looking back at the food. Maybe that was why she wasn't feeling well. She hadn't eaten in a while. She reached out, picking up a bun and beginning to eat. She wasn't feeling any different as she ate, actually she was feeling even worse. She let out a growl and kicked the trey of food away before feeling that same jolt from her heart again. "Aghh!", she clutched her chest, gritting her teeth. What was going on?! Was this some kind of torture to get her to talk? She shook her head. According to that stupid masked guy and Itachi, they didn't want any information on Konoha.
Kanna closed her eyes, trying to figure out what was wrong. 'What has changed since I got here..? What can I not do that I could before? Well fighting isn't an option. I can't go outside at all, I can't go home...Uugh, there is lots of stuff! Shit, I wish...Satsu was still here...', she wrapped her arms around her knees, laying her head on them as she starred at the floor, trying to figure out what was wrong here. Why was she feeling like shit?
Itachi sat in a dark room, alone, starring into the darkness. "What if she isn't one of them?". "Then she dies". He closed his eyes, placing a hand on his head, now regretting that he brought Kanna there, but it was too late now. He couldn't change it. "How long will the process take?". "It will be quick. She'll die before the weeks end if she doesn't break the seal". Itachi let out a soft sigh. She was going to die.
Kanna looked up at the ceiling once more. How long had she been in there? A few days, a week? She couldn't remember. She was unconscious most of the time. She let out a growl, "God damn it! It's all that jerk Itachi's fault!". She slammed a fist into the wall behind her, cracking it slightly. She looked over, blinking a few times. She...cracked the wall..? She looked back at her hand, just catching a glimpse of a silver colored chakra as if faded away. She held her hand. It didn't even hurt, and that chakra. The jolt suddenly went into her chest, this time more painful than the other few times. "AHHHH!!", she cried out, falling forward onto the ground, grasping her chest. Her breathing began to speed up as she began to roll around on the ground, seeming to be fighting with something. 'What...What the hell is going on?!', she thought, screaming in pain on the ground. What was happening?!
Itachi looked up as he heard Kanna' scream. 'Is she...!', he got to his feet, heading out and down the various halls towards the prisoner area. Was she dying? He wasn't running, mainly because if he ran the Akatsuki would probably suspect something, so he merely walked, trying to restrain from running as he heard the screams. And then...it went quiet. 'She can't be...!', he thought, now forgetting all about not running and taking off as quickly as he could towards the cell, as he neared the door though, it suddenly blasted open, the door flying completely off its hinges. Itachi slid to a halt, looking at the door and then towards the cell. It seemed like minutes before she finally emerged from the cell, her form encased in a silver chakra. She looked...demonic in a way. But she wasn't a Jinchuuriki. "The Hatsuya clan's ability may appear demonic and out of control, like a Jinchuuriki, but don't be fooled. If the user learned how to master and use these abilities, they could be far more powerful than any Jinchuuriki or bijuu. If the user does not know how to use this power correctly, and goes out of control, the user will die once the ability has no more chakra to rely on". 'I can't let her get too far out of control..', he thought as he ran at Kanna. She didn't even seem to be there anymore, Kanna. This chakra was in control, not her. He had to get her calmed down.
"What's going on...?", Kanna murmured. She was sitting in the darkness, no light around anywhere. "Where am I...?", she starred around at the darkness. She was feeling drained, feeling weak. Like something was taking her power. A figure then appeared in the darkness. "I...Itachi..?", she asked rather weakly. She got no reply. Itachi stood before her as a young boy, what he looked like when they had first met. The form of the boy began to grow as he got older, soon he was standing before her in his ANBU clothing, and then now in his Akatsuki cloak. "Itachi...", she lowered her head, "Something isn't right...". She placed a hand on her head as it began to throb with pain.
Itachi had managed to knock Kanna back into one of the walls, causing a large dent in it. She let out a loud, in-human growl, her glowing silver eyes glaring at him. "Itachi! We have to snap her out of this before she ends up destroying this place and killing herself", a voice came, but Itachi already knew who it was. Zetsu. "I know...", he simply replied as he watched Kanna now running at him, forming blades of silver chakra in both her hands. He dodged her attacks as she came at him at a rather quick pace. She was starring at him right in the eye, not even focusing on where he attacks were landing. "You still look me in the eye even though you know my power..", he murmured, ducking down as she swung at him and then reaching up and grabbing her neck, pinning her against the wall, now choking her, but holding her there as his eyes flash to his sharingan. "Always a fool...", he whispered as the three small spirals in his eye began to spin. Kanna gasped slightly, the chakra beginning to fade away.
"You still look me in the eye even though you know my power...", she heard Itachi's voice murmur within the darkness. She looked up, now noticing Itachi's form had faded away. She shook her head once more, confused by those words. "I...I don't know what's going on..", she placed a hand to her neck as she felt some sort of pressure there. She didn't feel anything, but she knew something had to be there. Her body suddenly froze. It was as if time had stopped. "Always a fool...", she heard Itachi murmur once more. She closed her eyes as the darkness began to fade into light. Was she...just dreaming? Was she...waking up..?
Itachi loosened his grip and then released Kanna when the chakra was gone and watched as she fell to her knees before him. She was coughing. Maybe he had held too tight. "'Always a fool..'..", she murmured his words, smirking slightly as she sat back, looking at him, "I'd rather be a fool and face my opponent instead of running and trying to hide. I don't fear your Sharingan. I didn't then, and I still don't...". Kanna leaned back against the wall, taking in a few deep breathes before looking around at the mangled hallway. "W-What happened here...?!", she questioned, directing it at no one in particular. "You did...", Itachi simply replied as he turned from her and began walking down the hall, "Come..". Kanna quickly looked over at Itachi as he said that she had done this. She looked back at the destruction and then got to her feet and began following Itachi. Of course, she didn't really want to, but she did want answers, and maybe she would finally get them now. As she walked down the hall though, she could see some sort of...plant thing sticking out of a wall. "Uhm..What the hell is that..?!", she questioned, stopping as she looked at the thing. "You're nightmare...", murmured Zetsu. She jumped back, holding up her arms as she starred at the plant thing. "I-It talks!!", she pointed at the plant like man as he looked towards Itachi. "Leader-sama wants to see you...", he stated before merging into the wall and disappearing. Kanna shuddered. That man...gave her the creeps. "Let's go..", Itachi commented as he continued to walk. Kanna starred at the wall for a moment and then looked at Itachi, quickly following after him. "What the hell was that thing?! A talking plant?!", she questioned, glancing back. "Zetsu. A member of Akatsuki, and he's a man...", Itachi stated. She shook her head, just thinking about that thing actually being a MAN was giving her goose bumps. She then thought about what the creepy plant guy, Zetsu, had said. "Leader...sama...?", she murmured aloud, thinking for a moment before coming to a realization that she was going with Itachi to see the leader of Akatsuki! She came to a stop, looking towards the ground. Itachi stopped as well, turning slightly to look at her. "Walk", he ordered. "I don't want to...", she glared at him, "I am not spending another second here...". 'If I did that damage while I was unconscious...that means I have chakra!', she thought as she quickly formed some hand seals and placed a hand to her mouth, "Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu!", she exclaimed before a large flame shot from her mouth. It may not had been a powerful technique, but at least this would distract him as she made a break for it. She would get out. She would escape!
END:~ Sorry for the crappy ending and this chapter didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it to...but I was being distracted by my friend, and since I promised to get this Chapter out by the end of this weekend, I quickly finished it. Sorry it's not that long either. Oh, and I will also be having a new story up soon. I'm not quite sure when...but I'll have it out soon!!
