A young shinobi stopped at the gates of Iwakagure. His long hair was matted, but his eyes focused on the gate. He walked through the gate, the guards not on duty at the time. He managed to dodge the people, running into their blind spots; a shady corner of a house, an alleyway, a deserted street. He ran into a shabby part of the villaige, where the Rock Rebels lived. The ninja smiled; this was where he had grown up, with his two sisters and his brother. He knew that he wouldn't have to hide here
A young woman walked by him, not taking any notice of him. "Psst, Marisa," he called. The woman stopped and turned around.
"Kimmel?" she asked.
The man smiled, "It's been awhile little sister, hasn't it?"
The woman gasped. She walked slowly over to him and put her hand to his face, as if to see if he was real. When it rested on his cheek she sobbed, putting her head on his shoulder. "Kimmel, Kimmel, Kimmel," she repeated, I'm so happy to see you. Where have you been?" she asked.
The man laughed, "That is a story for another time my dear sister, could you take me to Yochi, Shina, & Kaze are, and for the record I no longer go by the name of Kimmel."
"Then wha-," Marisa was cut off.
"Another story, another time," he said. "Take me to them please."
Trembling, the Kunoichi did as she was told. She walked up to a shabby, rundown little cabin. Opening the door, she walked in.
A short brown haired man, a long haired blonde woman, and a guy with spiky blue hair looked up from the table.
"Marisa, you're back, and you brought company," the blue haired man spoke.
"Kaze-," she began.
"Brother," Kimmel finished.
Kaze turned to him. Then with a wide smile screamed out, "KIMMEL, YOU HAVE RETURNED,"
The girl was reduced to tears, while the other man ran up and punched his brother in the shoulder.
"Where have you been?" They all asked at once.
"I cannot stay, I am sorry. This is not the last time you will see me. I just came by to check on you. Kaze, I see you are holding the fort down nicely. Also, when you address me, I no longer go by my birth-name.
"What should we call you, and again, where were you?" Shina asked.
"I will answer one question, I am a little pressed for time, so the rest, I will have to write down."
Shina cleared her throat. "Did your eyes ever heal?" she asked.
Kimmel looked down, "They did not. However my other senses are heightened. I am more aware of my surroundings then I ever was with my sight. Okay, that was your one question. The rest I will write down."
Kimmel grabbed a sheet of paper, and, using the pencil near him, drew a picture. Beside it he wrote few words and handed it to Yochi.
"I hope this answers your questions. I will see you again. Continue the fight; Mother and Father would be proud. I will watch over you." He ruffled his siblings' hair, reaching down since he stood many inches taller than them. Smiling he walked out the door.
The three ninja stood over the piece of paper, and read who their brother had become.
The man walked into the Iwakagure prison.
"Can I have a name," A receptionist asked, not looking up.
"Yes you can." Kimmel smiled.
My name is Kimmel Nara. I believe that you are looking for me." He stared at her, the receptionist screamed. Shinobi & Kunoichi leapt on him, bounding him & gagging him. Lifting him up, they carried him to the Tsuchikage's palace.
As he was hauled out the door, the receptionist continued to scream. For in that brief glimpse, she saw everything about herself; her birth, her life, and finally her impending, gruesome, death.
