"Such a sick twisted world we live in"
(LineofDoom!)
Silence.
Complete and absolutely silence.
Hohenheim just stood there watching the shinobi.
Edward was getting very impatient. Wasn't his father supposed to ask the strange people questions? Why the hell was taking so long?! He would have already been interrogating them if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't understand them and they couldn't understand him either. As Edward was about to say something, his father decided to speak.
"Do you remember how you got here?" Hohenheim asked carefully.
"No, we don't remember. At least I don't." Shino replied. He looked to the ground. His memory was by far the best of all Konoha! How come he could remember what happened 2736 days ago, but he couldn't remember why he got there? Ahh, mysteries of the world…
"All I remember before passing out was…well…I remember I tried to stop my teammates from killing each other. That's all I remember. Sakura said. Then thoughts of her teammates flashed through her mind. Had she saved them?
"I see. What are currently your ninja ranks?"
As Sakura was about to speak, Shino held up his hand, showing that he was going to answer that question. Sakura couldn't help but let out a small growl. She was tired of this! First, they were in a world where they didn't understand anyone and there were no shinobi, then the blonde guy kept watching them all the night like some creepy stalker or something! And finally, they were being asked questions (really stupid ones) and that was just so frustrating! Sakura felt like pulling her hair, but since she was ANBU she kept a cool façade.
"I am a jonin, Ino made it to chuunin before she retired and Sakura, as you can see, is an ANBU". Hohenheim was impressed. At such a young age and one was a jonin and the other was an ANBU. That was just…impressive.
"Hey old man! What are they saying?!" Edward finally asked after losing his patience.
"Well, I asked them their ninja ranks and if they remembered how they got here, but it seems that they don't remember"
"Ninja ranks? What are those, father?" Al asked while eyeing the ninja.
"Well Al, there are 5 ranks. Genin; which in their language is "Low ninja" are the lowest level of ninja and also the ones that display the most difference in power. When they become Genin, they are sent on missions that their village gets paid for. They are typically sent either on D-rank missions, which are almost entirely risk-free jobs of manual labour, or, rarely, on C-rank missions, which are cut above that and begin to verge on real "ninja" work that have a very low possibility of risk to the Genin involved.
Chuunin; which can translate to "Middle ninja" are ninja who are qualified to guide other ninja and lead missions. Chuunin have reached a leved of maturity and ability that primarily consist of leadership skills and tactical prowess. They must take an exam (which I've heard it's really difficult) to become a Chuunin.
Jonin; which means "High ninja" are generally highly-experienced shinobi with great individual skill who serve as military captains.
Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Butai, also known as ANBU and translated to our language is Special Assassination and Tactical Squad, they perform special high-level missions, such as assassinations and torture. The ANBU are picked by the Kage.
And lastly, we have the Kage who is the leader of one of the five most powerful hidden villages and are generally acknowledged as the most powerful ninja in their respective villages. " Hohenheim finished, as he watched that Shino and Sakura as good shinobis, just stood there waiting for a command. The Blonde girl, what her name again? Ina? Inne? Ino? Ahh yeah, Ino, was just waking up and apparently Sakura was explaining the situation they were currently in.
Winry, Al and Ed observed the newcomers. They looked about their age, or a year younger.
"So they are Genin?" Winry asked
Hohenheim couldn't help but laugh, at this, Winry, and Al looked at him with confusion and Ed just glared. These kids were a year younger or maybe even the same age as them, but the world they lived in was a dangerous one. They lived in such a sick twisted world…They had no idea.
"No Winry, ahh I almost forgot the introductions. Winry, Al, Ed; these are Shino, Sakura and Ino. " The shinobi, at hearing their name being mentioned just bowed, taking the clue that Hohenheim was introducing them. "These are my sons Edward" Hohenheim pointed at Ed who just stood there with a scowl on his face. "Alphonse " Alphonse gave a slight wave with his right hand. "And this is our friend Winry". The shinobi bowed at them again but said nothing.
"So what are their ranks, old man? They look to be about our age, so if they're not Genin they must be Chuunin, ne?" Edward said while Winry and Al nodded in agreement in the background.
Hohenheim chuckled.
"Ed, the world they live in is different from ours. Their current ranks are Chuunin for Ino-san, Jonin for Shino-san and ANBU for Sakura-san" Edward couldn't help but widen his eyes. He couldn't believe that the creepy cat girl was really strong! She looked so fragile behind her creepy self.
"Ano, father…why does the girl has a mask on?" Al asked confused by the fact that, well,the weather was extremely hot and the girl hadn't taken her mask of
"Because ANBU wear their mask even in their own village, for their identity as an ANBU agent is to be known only by the Kage and village elders." Al nodded. "Sakura-san, you might take your mask off. You are not on enemy territory, I can assure you, besides we need to get you back to your world, so your identity is safe during your stay here"
Sakura seemed to consider this. Ino put a hand on her shoulder and Shino nodded at her. Sighing, she slowly started to take off her mask. As soon as she did, gasps filled the room.
(LineofDoom!)
"Ugh"
"Fucking teme"
"Shut the hell up, dobe"
Both Shinobi were on the ground, facing the sky. Tears leaked out from their eyes.
"What have we done, Sasuke? Why were we such idiots?" Naruto closed his eyes, wishing all of this had been a nightmare.
"Shut up dobe, we will find her"
"Sasuke we have searched around the area for 45 minutes and there is still no sign of her! HOW CAN YOU BE SO CALM ABOUT THIS?!"
"I'M TRYING TO BE CALM BECAUSE I KNOW WE WILL FIND HER! SAKURA HAS REALLY BECOME A STRONG WOMAN, SHE CAN'T DIE THIS EASILY!"
"…" Naruto stayed in silence. For once in his life he had to admit that Sasuke was right
(LineofDoom!)
The Pink haired creepy cat girl started to take her mask off, really slowly, but she was taking it off. As she did this many thoughts flew through the other teens' minds.
"Is she ugly? Oh please! Let her be ugly! Because Ino-san is really pretty, and what would I do if Ed falls for Ino? Sakura must be ugly so I can still have a chance with Ed!" Winry thought desperately.
"Does she have a deformed face or something? Why doesn't she hurry the hell up?! Is she really that creepy?" Edward, impatient as always.
"Oh, I wonder what he looks like" Good guy Al.
But what they thought couldn't compare with the reality. As soon as she took off her mask, they were met by emerald fiery eyes.
The girl was really pretty. Her face was heart shaped and it had very delicate features, her big forehead was, well, big, but it looked good on her. Her pink hair reached above her shoulders. And oh god, her green emerald eyes, they were just amazing.
Edward forgot how to breathe for a moment, but being a macho he caught again his breath. He didn't need unwanted feelings, he didn't need a woman, he just needed to bring his brother back to normal, and then he would travel and die because of age. He would not get married nor have kids.
"Ino-san, Sakura-san; you must want to shower, since yesterday you couldn't because you were exhausted" Sakura and Ino nodded. " Winry will guide both of you to the bathroom, please follow her". Then Hohenheim turned to face Winry. "Winry, please take these two young ladies to the bathroom so they can take a shower" Winry took both girls by the wrist and ran to the bathroom, leaving behind a chuckling Al and Hohenheim and a confused Shino and Ed.
"Father, so have this people killed anyone?" Al asked. Hohenheim stopped chuckling and turned to face Al. "Yes Al, they probably have" At seeing his son's alarmed face he quickly added "But it is because they are defending their people, not because they had wanted to, remember this, son" Al nodded and Edward just looked at Shino as if he was the most wanted criminal in the world. Fortunately, Edward was more mature about this, so he did not blame him for the kills, if he had ever killed someone.
"The world they live in….Such a sick twisted world they live in" He muttered quietly and went out of the house.
