Chapter 6
Kanda sat on a chair beside a bed. On the bed was the one person who could make Kanda cry. She hadn't woken up in seven days and counting. Not only did she get cut and lose a lot of blood, but she also caught pneumonia from the snow and the cold. She was me.
"Kanda, you've been sitting here for a week now. You need to eat something," Komui said quietly. He put his hand on Kanda's shoulder and was surprised when Kanda didn't shrug it off.
"Will you watch her for me?" Kanda asked in a voice hoarse from crying.
"You got it," Komui smiled. Kanda stood and walked to the door. He took one last glace at me before silently closing the door behind him.
Komui sat there for awhile, wondering whether or not he should have sent only two people on this mission.
"I'm sorry," Komui whispered.
"You should be," a gruff voice said from behind Komui. Komui turned around quickly and found Itachi standing there looking fierce.
"W-who are you?" Komui demanded.
"I want the girl," Itachi growled. Komui's face went from flushed to pale in .0027 seconds. His eyes rolled towards the back of his head and he passed out.
"Well that was easy," a blue shark-man said stepping out from the shadows, "I didn't even have to come out and scare him half to death."
Kanda came back to the room where I was. Or at least where I was supposed to be. When he entered the room, the first thing he noticed was the fact that I was gone. The next thing he noticed was that Komui was passed out on the floor.
"Komui! What happened? Where's Ai?"Kanda shouted, shaking Komui awake.
"A guy with red eyes came an-" Komui started.
"-and you protected her but they were too strong for you and you were defeated?" Kanda added, squeezing the life out of Komui's arm. Komui, seeing that he had to make a decision, decided to go with safer choice.
"Yes, that's exactly what happened," he said, "they defeated me, but I fought back bravely!"
"I understand," Kanda said before taking off and running out of the building.
"Who did she call out for the other day?" Kanda asked aloud, "does it Uzumaki and Uchiha?"
A loud crack sounded and a pink-haired girl fell from the sky and came crashing down to earth.
"Which one are you? Uzumaki or Uchiha?" Kanda demanded
"I'm neither," the girl said, standing up and brushing herself off. "My name's Sakura, that's all you need to know."
"Do you know where Itachi is?" Kanda asked hurriedly.
"I don't know his exact location, but I can show you the general location," Sakura said in a bored tone. Sakura turned around and punched the air. A bright flash erupted in the atmosphere and Sakura lunged for Kanda's hand.
"Hold on!" she cried as a gigantic force pulled them into a black-hole-like substance.
The world spun and spun around Kanda and his new companion. Sights and sounds whizzed past and millions of animes could be seen for miles.
"Here we are," Sakura said, soaring into a strange looking anime. The two landed softly and the ground before Sakura took off running.
"Hey! Wait up!"Kanda called after her.
"Naruto! Sasuke! Come out of there! Itachi's gone and done something evil again!"Sakura yelled , barging into a random house.
After Sakura finished explaining the situation, Naruto and Sasuke were eager to help.
"She was a nice girl. I wonder what the Akatsuki would want wither," Naruto wondered.
"Knowing my brother, it's either lethal or perverted," Sasuke sighed.
"I'll go get Kakashi," Sasuke said, starting to go outside.
"No!"Naruto yelled. "We can do this on our own without him scolding us!"
"But…" Sakura started.
"He's right," Sasuke interrupted, "besides, if we tell him we might be told to stay here."
What kind of freak anime is this? Kanda thought. This is beyond freaky
"Well then, let's go!" Naruto cried, leaping for joy. And so the four of them took off in search of the Akatsuki.
Meanwhile, near the border of Fire Country, was the Akatsuki. They were all gathered in a room surrounding a bed with me on it. At least all the guys were.
"Seriously, I don't see what you guys see in her," Konan sighed, twirling her fingers.
"Shut up wench!" Pein cried, chucking a glass vase at her. The vase missed her by an inch and shattered against a nearby wall.
"Fine, if that's the way you're going to be then I'm leaving!" Konan shouted. Then she stripped off her cloak, threw it down, and stormed out.
All the guys stared from the door to the cloak on the floor. Hidan walked over to the cloak, picked it up, and brought it back to the bed. Glances were exchanged and nods were made before Hidan placed the cloak over me. Cheers filled the room and could be heard for miles.
"This mud is really thick," Naruto complained as the group of four trudged through a swamp. "How much longer are we going to torture ourselves?"
"We're almost there," Sasuke said. Kanda followed close behind the trio, not wanting to get lost. No matter how hard he tried concentrating on moving forward, he couldn't keep his mind off of me.
"We're here!" Naruto cried jumping over the border into Fire Country. Immediately the group took off at a run, running faster and faster towards a distant shadow.
Suddenly they stopped. They couldn't move. They were surrounded.
"W-where am I?" I asked in a sleepy voice. Eight squeals were heard from somewhere around the room. I looked over to the side to find Itachi and seven other guys wearing the same cloak staring at me.
"You're one of us now," they all said in unison.
"I'm on of what?" I asked. My head spun a little and my vision blurred. I held my head to steady it.
"Are you okay?" a guy with orange hair and a ton of piercings asked me. I nodded as I rubbed my temple.
"Who are you people?" I asked. One by one they introduced themselves to me. After the introductions were made we sort of sat there for a little while, staring at each other.
"So what's your name?" Sasori asked after awhile of silence.
"Ai Kin," I yawned.
"You slept for a long time ," Deidara said.
"Well I did lose a lot of blood," I stated.
Just then, a loud rumbling came from outside. Pein opened a window and everyone gasped. Outside was an army of Fire Country citizens storming towards the Akatsuki's headquarters. And at the front of the stampede was Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kanda, running just as hard.
"Kanda?" I questioned aloud. I pulled the Akatsuki's cloak tighter around myself and went outside.
The sight was absolutely astonishing. We were surrounded in every possible angle.
"Give Ai-san back or we'll overtake you completely!" Uzumaki-kun yelled. The Akatsuki lined up behind me and stared at the large mass of people.
"Aahhh! You've defeated us," they yelled suddenly, falling to the ground. I covered my face with my hands.
"Even though we surrendered, she's still one of us! She's on our side!"Kisame yelled at the crowd.
"Well actually we're more on her side," Tobi said.
"Shut up!" the rest of the Akatsuki shouted at Tobi.
"Well, I guess I'm leaving now," I said, walking towards Kanda. Kanda walked towards me and hugged me tightly. It was the tightest, warmest hug I'd ever had in my entire life. I couldn't help it. I threw up.
"Oh! That's gross!" Kanda cried.
"You hugged me too tightly!" I said, wiping my mouth.
Out of nowhere, a puff of white smoke appeared and a tall guy showed up in the smoke.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura all said in unison.
"I thought something was going on when I saw that the entire city was deserted. What do you three think you're doing?" "Kakashi-sensei" said.
"N-nothing," Naruto said backing up as Kakashi-sensei took a step forward.
"Obviously you've been doing something. I mean, why else would an entire country be out here with you?" Kakashi-sensei said.
"S-s-seriously Kakashi-sensei, we didn't do nothin' at all," Naruto whimpered. It was clear that he was scared out of his mind.
"Maybe we should leave," Kanda whispered to me. I nodded and together we stepped into a random open portal and traveled through the anime abyss.
Somehow we made it back to our anime and back to Komui who was proudly demonstrating his epic battle with Itachi.
"But Itachi didn't have any scratches, bruises, or scars. And my room doesn't look like any fight was held there. Are you sure you're not just lying to cover up for the fact that you didn't protect me at all," I said blankly.
"No…no, I really did try to protect you. It just didn't turn out the way I wanted," Komui whined.
A little afterwards, we made our way back to the Black Order. On the train, Kanda and I fell asleep. As Komui passed by us, he couldn't help but smile.
"She's the only one who can make him look so peaceful," he smiled.
