Kouga's Return!
I lazily got up from my sleeping position on my bed. I yawned loudly and scratched my head. I looked around the room. Everything was the same. I sighed. Nothing exciting ever happened in this village. I got up and went to shower. I changed into my same outfit and pulled on my fan. As I walked out of my bedroom, everything felt normal. I slowly walked down the stairs and outside. I locked my doors. Nothing. What was with today? It seemed peaceful but why did I have this feeling? Something bad was going to happen today. I could feel it.
I slowly walked down the streets of my district. All of this and more was all mine now. They had left. And they were never to return. I was a Monteshyro and proud of it. I had everything I needed. But why did I have this empty space in my heart? What was I missing? Oh yeah. A family. I laughed at the thought. When I had a family, I didn't want one. Now that I don't have one, I do want one. Weird how life is.
I made it out of my district only to come face to face with Yuka. He was finally back from his mission, as it seemed. I walked over to him and greeted. He greeted back and we both began walking over to the Mizukage's tower. Just passing my home, I felt that feeling again. Something bad was going to happen. But I'll make sure nothing does. This village is my home. I'll protect it with my life just as my mother had. We soon made it to the office. Misumi came with us.
"Lord Mizukage?" We asked as we walked in. We saw the old man looking out the window again.
"What is it?" He asked back.
"Is something wrong, Lord Mizukage?" Yuka asked.
"I got that strange feeling." He answered. I clutched my stomach.
"Tell me about it. I got it too." I told him. He looked back at me.
"So you have it also?" He asked. I nodded.
"Maybe all you guys need is a good cup of tea. I'll go get some." Misumi said. I smirked.
"Bring some pizza while you're at it!" I yelled.
"Very funny!" She yelled back and we laughed.
"So have you met the guards I sent out for you, Lady Koyuki?" The Mizukage asked me.
"Yep." I responded. Yuka looked confused.
"Guards? What guards?" He asked.
"I got me some more body guards from Konoha." I told him.
"Lord Mizukage, you can't be serious. Konoha?" He said.
"We need more guards after what happened. You must understand, Yuka." The old man said.
"I'm her only guard after what happened. I've done pretty good so far so why do we need more?" Yuka said.
"You're going to need help protecting her." He said.
"-sigh- Fine." Yuka said. Misumi came in with the tea.
"Oh come on! I wanted pizza, not tea!" I yelled. Misumi laughed and I began serving the tea.
"You do it like a professional." The old man told me.
"Yeah. I've had years of practice." I said sarcastically. Misumi laughed.
"I've heard from the Konoha nin that you were hallucinating again yesterday, Lady Koyuki." Mizukage said.
"I wasn't. I was sure I saw him." I said and sipped my tea.
"How did it feel?" Misumi asked me. I looked at the tea for a long while.
"Like he was doing it all over again." I answered softly. I put down my tea and just looked at the ground. I felt Misumi hug me like she always did when I got that feeling.
"None of that will ever happen again, Lady Koyuki. We promise that." Yuka said. I smiled softly at him.
"We can't find her anywhere!!" Someone yelled from outside the office. Naruto then bursted in with the others.
"There you are!!" Sakura yelled. I noticed that Yuka was on full alert for some reason.
"Ah, glad you could make it. We were just talking about you all." The Mizukage said in his cheerful way. They sat down with us.
"Why the long face, Lady Koyuki?" Sakura asked. I looked at her and smiled.
"Oh nothing." I said. I became my cheerful self again. I could sense Misumi's sad eyes on me. She would always look at me like that.
We all began talking about nothing in particular until it was night time. Like I had wanted, we had ordered a pizza to eat as dinner. It was night time now so I began wlaking home. It was dark but I was used to it. I walked down the roads of the Mist village quietly and slowly. To me it was too quiet. I carefully watched around for any signs of an ambush or attack. No one in the village would attack me but just to be sure. I then made it to my district where I quickly headed to my house. I locked myself in my room. As soon as I entered my dark room, I no longer looked emotionless like always. I was terrified. I walked to my bed and soon sensed it again. I became alert but was pushed to the wall by something or someone.
This person or thing had their what seemed to be hands around my neck, pinning me to the wall. I clutched this person's hands, trying to make them let go. They didn't. I could still breathe and all but I was too terrified at what I was looking at. It then began raining. There was a storm outside. I was looking straight into glowing brown eyes. Those same brown eyes that had caused me so much pain and suffering. This person was the person who hurt me badly, Kouga Kaguya.
Kouga noticed that I now knew it was him and he smirked. He used his other hand and punched me hard in my abdomen. He let go of me and I fell to the ground. I saw his form towering over me. How? I began wondering. How was he still alive?
"Long time, no see." He said in the voice I despised so much of.
"K-Kouga." I managed to say from all the pain. I could see that he was smirking.
"Poor thing. You're already so badly hurt and I still haven't even had my fun yet." He said and laughed. Blood began dripping down my lips.
"How?" I asked. He looked happy for some reason.
He grabbed me again and pinned me to the wall. His hand was once again on my neck. Lightning flashed and I got a quick look at him. Still the same. Those eyes were still as horrifying as always. His long black hair was even longer than that day. And now he was in a Sound uniform. He must have moved there then.
"So tell me. How have you been after all this time?" He asked. He was still smirking.
"H-How?" I asked again. He frowned.
"I'll tell you how. Kabuto did it. All thanks to him, I'm still alive." Kouga answered. I shrieked when he pushed me harder against the wall. Lightning flashed again.
"What are you d-doing here?" I asked him. He loosened his grip a bit but not enough for me to break free.
"I came back to look for you." He answered. I began to panic. What did he want from me?
"Wh-what for?" I asked. He smirked again. I saw his hand come up and he caressed my cheek.
"Isn't it obvious?" He asked. I tried to get away but couldn't.
"Get away from me." I managed to say. He frowned.
"What's wrong? Aren't we friends anymore?" He asked sarcastically. He struggled to get out of his grip but he just wouldn't let go.
"Let go." I told him. He smirked again.
"Why should I?" He asked. He came closer and I panicked again.
"Please, let me go, Kouga." I pleaded. I didn't want anything to do with him after what he had done.
"You shouldn't beg me. You already know what happens when you beg me." He said. I swallowed hard.
"Let me go." I said again. I closed my eyes from the pain as more blood dripped down my lips.
"I have no order to." He said. I could now feel his breath on my neck.
"I'm telling you to let me go. You should leave now or I'll be forced to call the Mizukage to arrest you." I said almost sure of myself. I knew I wouldn't be able to though. Kouga was still too strong for me. I wasn't able to beat him. I couldn't even land a scratch on him.
"What big words. All coming from the same little defensless girl I knew so long ago." Kouga said mockingly.
"I'm not the same girl." I managed to say. I opened my eyes. I saw him right in front of me. He was so close to me. I began to panic again. What did he want me for anyhow?
"I know you aren't. But you still are like back then. The only difference is probably your age." He said. He was so close that I could even feel his lips moving on me. I struggled again.
"What do you want with me? Why did you return to this village?" I asked.
"I want you to come with me. That's all I'm asking." He said. I closed my eyes again as I remembered all the things he had done to hurt me.
"Not after that happened last time. I'm not going anywhere with you." I said.
"You have no choice. You only have one. But I'll give another just to be fair. You either come along quietly or I can do what I did last time right here." He said. My eyes widened.
"No. Not that." I muttered. He smirked.
"Yes. That." He said and laughed softly.
"No Kouga. You can't." I said.
"Oh but I can. I'm allowed to. Now, tell me your answer." He said. I stayed quiet for a long time.
"I'd rather die than leave this village again." I said. He was still smirking.
"Suit yourself." He said. I placed my hands in front of me to stop him. He did but he glared at me.
"You can't do that and I won't leave with you. Now you have to leave." I said. He pulled back his hand from my neck and starred at me. I still had no way of escaping since one side was a wall and the other his hand was blocking it. He continued starring.
"No. I gave you two choices. You either come with me or I do it again. You chose that you wouldn't leave the village so that means I get to have the other choice. And besides, you lose either way." He said.
"You should get out of this village now. Yuka is probably coming over and he'll kill you if he finds you here." I told him. He glared.
"Who's Yuka?" He asked. He was always like this. Posessive.
"Yuka is my friend and body guard. If he finds you here, he won't hesitate to kill you." I said. Kouga caressed my cheek again.
"Why is he your body guard?" Kouga asked.
"Because I need protection from people like you." I said. The storm had finally subsided. He once again came close to my face.
"I don't like that. I don't like that one bit." He said. I glared at him.
"You shouldn't. Now leave." I said harshly.
"I'm staying until this guy comes." He said. I was surprised.
"Why?" I asked.
"I need to know something." Kouga said.
"What would that be?" I asked. Kouga was looking right in to my eyes.
"How long has this guy been around you?" He asked. I was confused now.
"Since what you did." I answered. Kouga looked at his hand.
"So that was about three years back." He said.
"Got better at simple math?" I mocked him. He looked back at me and continued starring.
"Has this guy touched you?" He asked. I looked at him.
"What do you care? And you're acting like my father would." I said.
"Tell me." He ordered. I thought for a few moments.
"And what if he did?" I asked. Kouga glared. He once again pinned me to the wall with his hand on my neck. This time it was even tighter than the first time he did it.
"I'll kill you." He said in a low tone.
"What should you care?!" I yelled out. He was sufficating me. He punched me again and I fell.
"I care everything!" He yelled. I looked up at him and saw him glaring.
"Why would you? You killed everything precious to me." I muttered out.
"Why do you think I left you alive?" He said. I looked at the window.
"I wasn't worth killing..." I muttered as tears slid down my eyes. He grabbed me again and pushed me to the wall. I coughed up blood again.
"That's not it." He said. I looked at him with a confused look.
"Then wh-what was it?" I asked. He looked at me. I neared my face again.
"Because I needed you back then." He said. My eyes widened.
"You n-needed m-me?" I stuttered out.
"Like your family was to you, you were to me." He said. I was shocked.
"W-what?" I asked.
"You were the only thing precious to me. I had no mother or father. Your clan took me away from them. When I met you, you changed everything. My whole existence revolved around you." He said. I was still in shock.
"I had no idea, Kouga." I managed to say.
"That is why I didn't kill you. That is why I took you with me on my journey. That's why I want you to come with me again." Kouga said.
"I can't leave this village. You'll have to find someone else." I said.
"That's impossible. No one is precious to me at all. None but you." He said.
"I can't leave this place." I muttered.
"If you will not come with me on your own will, I'll have to take you by force." He said.
"I can't leave, Kouga. Understand that." I said. We looked at each other.
"I never will. I never did. And I never could." He said. He pulled away from me and I just looked at him. He then disappeared. I fainted soon after with only hearing the sounds of running footsteps at my bedroom door.
