Hi! sorry about the late update. I was stuck at my mom's office. You guys enjoy it, mkay?
Kimiko's POV
For some strange reason, it was already painted in my favorite colors. It was dark gray, with splashes of pink and black here and there. I figured that Blue Haired chick painted it, but decided to move in some where else. It was the only explanation I could come up with.
Over the next week, I made a few friends. On Monday night, I got a little scared from a nightmare I had. When I awakened in a panic, I glanced at the clock. 4:30 am. Holy Crap, I'm weird… So, I wandered out into the corridors, as I just wanted to go for a walk. It was 4:30 am, and I didn't wanna wake any one up. So, I simply wandered up and down the many dark, spooky, lonely corridors for an hour or 2. I was having a thought war with myself, asking why they took me in and recruited me, just like that because it was still bugging me. That's when I noticed someone was there with me. Just in time to be grabbed by the shoulder.
Out of reflex, I spun around and kicked whoever it was in *clears throat*'The forbidden fruit.'
It must have been a 'he', because he collapsed on the floor and moaned in pain.
"Aw crap… AWWWW crap…" I muttered, watching whoever it was roll around on the floor.
"A-are you okay?" I asked in my shy, concerned little way.
"Not… likely" The figure muttered as he rolled around some more. After about 20 minutes of moaning and rolling around on the floor, he finally stood up and gave me a death glare.
"Don't EVER freakin' do that again!" He said coldly. Now that I had a good view of him, I didn't recognize him. Maybe I didn't see him at the meeting or something, but he didn't have a nickname. I decided to give him one. Jashinist Dude. He had a Jashinist necklace, so I figured he was a Jashinist.
"W-well, I wouldn't have done that if y-you hadn't snuck up on me." I said.
"I didn't sneak up on you." He denied.
"Y-yeah, you did." I said.
"No. I was… Uh… W-what are you doing out here?" He quickly changed the subject.
"I-I had a nightmare…" I muttered, kind of embarrassed.
"About what?"
"… A big s-spider…" I said quietly, looking down. He chuckled a little.
"Go to bed." He said, a smile still stuck on his face. I nodded and turned, acting like I knew where I was going.
"D-don't sneak up on m-me." I muttered jokingly. He smiled just a little bit more. I turned and acted like I knew where I was going. Eventually, I found my way back to my bedroom. It was 6:30am, so I just laid there listening to Ghost and Shadow talk quietly. I thought Jashinist Dude would be WAY madder than that, especially since I probably diminished his chances of ever having children, but he seemed okay it was like he couldn't stay mad at me or something.
On Tuesday, I learned everyone's names. Shark Dude's name was Kisame Hoshigaki.
Scary Guy's name was Kakuzu.
Blonde Dude's name was Deidara.
Red Head's name was Sasori
Plant man's name was Zetsu
Uchiha kid's name was Itachi Uchiha
Blue Haired Chick's name was Konan
Ichigo Dude's name was Pein, but I was to address him as Leader or Leader-Sama
Mr. Orange Swirly Mask Man Who Thinks It's Okay to Scare People's name was Tobi
And how did I learn this? Remember Monday night? Well, that turned into Tuesday morning. I got up because I just couldn't get back to sleep after Hidan sent me back to bed. Plus, my cuts were still fresh, and they were oozing a fresh amount of blood. I got up to change them in the bathroom, but I zoned out and ended up going to the dining hall. I didn't expect any one to be there. I mean, who gets up at 6:30 am? But when I got there, the universe made one of its famous contradictions. EVERYONE was there. Just barely, but they were there. I sat down and watched everyone else eat, because I wasn't hungry. I kept getting weird glances from Hidan, but I never met the glare directly, as I said before, I'm very shy. Pein-Sama decided to introduce me to everyone, so that's when I learned what to call them. Tobi, of course, had to shatter the silence.
"TOBI IS A GOOD BOY!"
I screamed and once again, tipped back in my chair.
"I'm okay…" I said from my position on the floor.
"Tobi is sorry again." Tobi said, once again looming over me. I fake cried again, and it worked. He walked away, with that same chibi sad cloud above his head. I sat back up. My cuts throbbed, which then reminded me what I was supposed to be doing instead of coming to the dining room. I acted like nothing happened, not wanting to go through the previous situation in the meeting room. I pretended to eat by using a trick Kazuki taught me. You hide the food under other food, or bunch it up to make it look smaller. We called it, 'hide in plain sight' or HIPS. Which I was against, but it was code, so we went by that. I used it, and it worked quite effectively. Everyone believed it.
"I-I'm done…" I said standing and leaving the room. No one stopped me, so I kept walking. Besides, what good is food if you're almost never hungry?
I wandered into one of the many bathrooms hidden all over this now questionable hideout. Then, I realized something. I'd need bandages to replace the ones I already had. When I found some digging through my bag, I quickly applied them. I knew from years upon years of experience that one of them was bound to get infected. Maybe it's because they weren't cleaned…?
On Wednesday, I found out that this… Tobi… creature… thingy… liked watching the Disney channel.
On Thursday, I learned that I was quite popular. And one of my cuts started oozing puss… *pokes cut*… So cool…
On Friday, Konan found out about the cuts. I was wandering down a random corridor, poking an exposed cut which was bruising. It was purple with pink and white centering it. I was so absorbed in my own injuries, I didn't notice Konan coming. She would have walked passed me if I hadn't groaned in pain when I pushed on it a little too hard. She spun around and looked at me.
"Are you okay?" She asked, examining me closely with those blue eyes of hers. I nodded promptly and tried to get away, but it was too late. She grabbed my upper arm and spun me around.
"Let me see."
"…" I stared at the floor, and showed her the cut in shame.
"Ow… That looks like it hurts…" She said, trying to ignore the urge to poke it.
"Is it cleaned?" She asked, looking at me, trying to invite my eyes to hers. I shook my head slowly, my head still down.
"Well, come with me." She said, finding a bathroom in the vast labyrinths of doors. I followed her, and she somehow obtained a bottle of Hydrogen Peroxide (cleaning alcohol) and a few wads of cotton balls. She ended up finding all of them on me… every single one. I was on the verge of crying by the time she was done. She gave me a smile and patted my head. A thought crossed my mind. 'Is this what moms are like?' I didn't know. I never had a good mom. I hoped she wouldn't tell anyone, because I didn't want anyone walking on eggshells around me.
On Saturday, Konan told people. I guess the universe had nothing better to do than to contradict people like me.
On Sunday, I drew a picture. A pretty one.
Yay, Kimiko drew a pretty picture! PLZ review! I know you're there. (That sounded scary...) Just review. Or KONAN will come and clean all your cuts! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
