Twenty minutes later, I found myself sitting under a tree and laughing at Haruka's attempts at catching a butterfly. I had been reading a favorite book of mine, Don't Laugh at My Romance, and I looked up to see him chasing after none other than an orange butterfly.

Haruka, my dear, you are quite the catch.

"Haruka, hon, just leave it alone." I called out to him, returning to my book.

No sooner did I turn the page then I felt a strange presence. Looking up I saw the two strangers from the other night. They were questioning Tori and Haruka about something. Forgetting about my book, I ran up to them.

"What are you harassing them about, and who are you people?" I asked as I gathered Haruka into my arms and let Tori hide behind my legs. I felt Haruka shaking and leaned my head closer to him.

"The man with the long hair has scary eyes." He whispered to me as I narrowed my eyes at the pair.

"I will ask once again; what reason have you to be harassing mere toddlers?" I repeated my question through gritted teeth. I guess you can say I'm easily angered.

The taller, and obviously more submissive, one's eyes flicked to the other one before he grinned maliciously. I didn't like that smile, or the promise that it held. I couldn't really see his eyes, or face for that matter, so I settled on looking at his cloak.

"The name's Kisame, and we're here for a woman that escaped." Was all that he voiced before pulling a picture of a woman out of his sleeve.

She…looks like me!
