Outside in the open air, Ryuu took a deep breath as she felt heat rush to her face. It was a bad thing to start having a crush on a man like Pein. She headed back towards her hotel when she heard the whistle of a kunai from behind her. She dodged it and spun, seeing the two man from the club. She figured something like this would happen, especially when the man who's hand was now broken remembered her from when her village in the Water Nation.

"I'm surprised you ain't dead," Ryuu snorted as she felt more chakra's appear around her. "But then again, I was a child, guess I missed your heart."

"An inch higher and I would have died bitch," the man laughed as he healed his broken hand. "The moment I saw your eyes, I knew it was you. Why would a Water child be in Amegakure?"

"Waiting for the Black Fang to rear its ugly head. Tell me, why did you chose the Valley Hidden by Rain?"

"What does it matter? Considering, you'll be dead in a moment."

"Oh so now you're threatening me with death, not just kidnapping," Ryuu giggled. "Did you think that this would be easy? I'm not afraid of you anymore."

"Obviously otherwise you wouldn't have been drinking in a club, waiting."

"You wanna dance, big boy?" Ryuu grinned darkly as she summoned her two bladed scythes connected by a chain. Ryuu's only hope was that Pein didn't decide to come out and realize how much she had been lying to him, especially when he was trying to track down the gang that had been trying to hunt her down her entire life. "How about I lead this time?"

All 20 members of the Black Fang attacked at once. Ryuu managed to keep on the defensive while slowly diminishing the number of shinobi around her, but they were tough. Their only goal was to kill her at this point, they were ruthless. Her body was slowly starting to glisten with sweat blood with each wound they gave her and she knew she was tiring. It wasn't like in ANBU where there was some morals while attacking someone, these men around her didn't even care if they died. As long as their mission succeeded.

Ryuu managed to defeat the last attacker but then felt something dig into her lower back and stumbled. She turned her head and saw the man who had haunted her dreams grinning as he stood less than a foot from her. He twisted the kunai he had dug into her back and she cried out as her scythes fell to the ground and shatters into crystal shards before disappearing. He pulled her against him as the kunai dug deeper and laughed as he started choking her with his free hand.

"Not going to use your Kekkei Genkai against me this time?" He whispered as he licked her ear as the hand that had dug the kunai into her started to run across her stomach. Ryuu almost wished for Pein to appear instead of this sick man who was feeling her up as he choked her. She couldn't lose what control she had just because this man was pissing her off. She had worked so hard for both Sarutobi and Minato to gain their trust to remain in the Leaf Village, she couldn't lose that now even if they were gone. "Or are you too scared to lose control in a foreign village? What happened to the blood thirsty child who didn't hesitate to kill her enemies in seconds?"

...

Pein frowned as a woman entered the club and immediately came to him to describe a bloody battle not far from the club. He was even more confused that one of his brothers hadn't even senses the fight on their patrols. He followed the sounds of the clash of blades and grunts of pain. When he reached the source of the battle, he frowned seeing Ry against the man whose hand she has broken at the club, her face laced with pain as the man choked her as well as feeling up her body which was covered in sweat and blood from over a dozen wounds across her body.

"...What happened to the blood thirsty child who didn't hesitate to kill her enemies in seconds?" The man asked as he licked Ry's ear and Pein saw Ry flinch at the contact.

"I have no reason to use my Kekkei Genkai," Ry spoke coldly and Pein saw the silver band on her right hand glow slightly before a kunai appeared in her hand and she shoved it into the man's thigh, making him let go of her as she stumbled forward gasping for air and collapsed to her hands and knees. She ripped a kunai out of her lower back, crying out at the motion.

"Ry...?" He hadn't meant to speak allowed, wanting to know if she had been the one to take out all these men but her cry of pain changed his mind. Her eyes locked onto his and he saw relief was through her before she collapsed to the ground, breathing hard.

"I will kill you, you little bitch," the man groaned not far from Ry as Pein came to her, but he was struggling to move as he ripped the kunai out of his leg.

Pein helped Ry sit up slowly, attempting to avoid her wounds, but there were too many. She cried out as he helped pull her to her feet, pressing her back against his body to put pressure on her lower back. The man finally pushed himself into a sitting position and his eyes hardened as he finally saw Pein. Pein summoned his brothers and the five surrounded the sitting man.

"It was an idiotic move to attack anyone within Amegakure," Konon spoke as she appeared next to Naraka and right in front of the man.

"You would protect that demon?!" The man hissed as he forced himself to his feet. "Obviously you do not understand how dangerous she is."

Pein glanced down at Ry and saw her narrowed amethyst eyes glowing faintly in the dark. Her body shook against him and he brushed it off considering how many wounds she had. Konon glanced back at Pein, suspicion evident in her eyes.

"Who are you?" Hira asked darkly.

"Buku Kytsu, Leader of the Black Fang from the Valley Hidden by Water." Ryuu's voice was cold and laced with anger.

"So you did do research," Buku laughed and clapped his hands. "I am clearly at a disadvantage here, surround by the Guardians of Amegakure. You have won for now Demon, but don't think you are safe."

"Go to Hell," Ryuu hissed and Pein tightened his arms around her waist as she tried to move closer to Buku. "Let me go Pein."

"No," Pein replied. He almost did let her go just because of the venom in her voice, but forced himself to not show her any weakness.

"Fine."

Purple Crystal suddenly appeared around Buku's feet and encased him within seconds as he laughed manically. A wall surrounded the encased man before the crystal shattered, splattering the crystal wall with blood. Then the wall disappeared leaving nothing left of the man except a circle if blood.

"I'm sorry for lying to you, Lord Pein, but that man has done too much to me personally for him to be allowed the thought of living," her voice was quiet and he could barely hear her as her legs gave out and he supported her full weight. "I have been hunting him down since his gang murdered my family and entire village. I didn't think he would actually attack me within your village. I had hoped...that you hadn't found out. Being able to act...like just a common traveler...had been a relief after 10 years...of hunting down the Black Fang..."

He watched as her head fell forward as she lost consciousness, blood streaked tears rolling down her cheeks. He pulled her into his arms bridal style with her head on his chest and frowned. His brothers worked on dispatching of the rest of the Black Fang and ignored Konon's confused look as he started carrying Ry towards her hotel since it was closer and she needed healing, any interrogations could wait for now.
