The boys woke up the next day, feeling pretty good. They couldn't explain this feeling, they had never had it before. Nobuyuki went into the kitchen and got some breakfast. A few bites of his breakfast, and he felt like he was going to be sick. He didn't even like the taste of his favorite food. He kept trying to eat it, but eventually he ran to the bathroom and puked up everything that he ate. He went into his room and found Yori, munching on one of the bones of their father. He couldn't explain it… but he felt a irresistible pull from the meat, he was hungry, and just the smell of his father's flesh made him drool. So he let the urge win and sat next to Yori, getting another one of the bones and tearing the remaining flesh off.

After breakfast they cleaned up and were getting ready to go train in the woods. knock. knock. knock. Nobuyuki looked at his brother panicky, but Yori calmed him.

"Don't worry," He said in a strange voice, "Everything will be fine. There's nothing for them to be suspicious of." Yori patted him on the shoulder and Nobuyuki answered the door.

A man looked down at him.

"Excuse me, can you get me your father?" he asked.

"He's not here." Nobiyuki chymed. He was talking so strangely. It was eerie. The man rose an eyebrow, sensing something was odd.

"He left last night." Yori said grimly. He was talking in the same way.

"I see…" the man said, shifting uncomfortably. "Well if you see him, tell him…" The man paused and stared at Yori. There was something red stuck in his teeth.

"What is that?" The man asked. Yori picked it out from his teeth, it was a piece of muscle.

"Oh, sorry. I guess some of my breakfast got caught in my teeth." The man looked confused and a little scared.

"What? It's just fish." Yori lied.

The man looked around and saw the slight stain on the floor from the blood. A light brownish color.
"We spilled tea all over the floor last night." Nobuyuki lied, in a sad apologetic voice. "Dad's gonna kill us for that." Too late. thought Yori, chuckling a bit. The man sniffed the air, and he knew something smelled very foul. He smelled something metallic… he smelled…

"Blood…" the man whispered.

"What was that?" Yori crooned.
"N-nothing. Just let me know when your father get's home." He said, right before quickly leaving.

Yori and Nobuyuki looked at each other.

"We need to leave." Yori said. Nobuyuki was sad, but he knew Yori was right. They got their things, a few clothes, weapons, the scroll, and what was left of their father, and left. They used their jutsu to leave the village, out into the forest.

_a few days later_

"So where are we going." Nobuyuki asked.

"Away from the village."

"Yeah but where to."

"I don't know yet. We just need to get away… and try to find Aunt Emi."

"You don't think she forgot about us, do you Yori?"

Yori stopped. He looked back at his brother, who was walking behind him.

"Of course not. Aunt Emi could never forget about us. We're like her children."

"But we were father's children, and he… he hurt us a lot."

"I know… but Auntie is different." He said. He turned and kept walking. Nobuyuki started imagining what it would be like to see Aunt Emi again. He imagined running into her arms, her ruffling his hair and saying she missed them. Apologizing for what Uncle Hayato did to Zetsu, and telling him to go away and leave them alone. He smiled at the thought. Yori had a similar idea of what it would be like. Only they ended up eating Hayato.

Suddenly a kunie flew past Yori's head and almost hit Nobuyuki. The children automatically went on guard and scanned the thick forest that surrounded the Hidden Grass Village. When the one who threw it appeared before them, they couldn't believe their eyes. It was their Aunt Emi.

"Auntie!" Nobuyuki yelled, completely overjoyed. She didn't open her arms as he ran to her, and Yori stopped him on his way there with a grim expression painting his face.

"Yori. Nobuyuki." She said to them. "How have you been." She said. "I'm glad you're doing well." It didn't look like she meant what said by the look on her face.

"We're fine, Aunt Emi. I can't say the same for dad though." Yori said darkly, smiling at the last part. Nobuyuki was finally starting to realize what was going on too. Normally he would want to cry, but right now, he honestly didn't know what to feel.

"Yeah, I heard. I heard you killed him. Is that true." She said. Yori nodded. A scowl grew on her face.

"Auntie…?" Nobuyuki said, dearly wanting this all to be nothing, for it to be an act. He didn't want it to be true.

"I could get over what happened to Aina." she said. "Neither of you could help that, being born. So I raised you like my own, just as Aina would want me to." They listened carefully, as the woman who had mothered them talked to them with a disgusted voice. "But then you killed Hayato." She spat.

"He was trying to kill us Aunti!" Nobuyuki said desperately.

"Which is why I could pardon that, and leave you two on your own. I could go without avenging him, because it was you two. It was just self-defense. I could forget about it if I wasn't anywhere near you." She paused. She really did leave us… Nobuyuki thought, his eyes welling up with tears.

"But." Yori said.

"But." She said. "Now you've killed Katashi." She hissed. She took out a sword. Hayato's sword. "To kill your own father!" She spat. "I could excuse the other murders before, but not this one. This one just proves that you are murderous demons, who are meant to do nothing but kill those who love you, those around you that you should trust. And now I'm going to wipe you out and take the scroll Hayato died for, I'm going to exterminate you before you kill anyone else!" She charged at them, a cold glare darkening her face.

Yori readied himself for battle, he had already accepted that the dream of being with their Aunt was gone, and now she had betrayed him. However… Nobuyuki was frozen to the spot. He didn't know what to do. Emi had betrayed him, her and Yori were the only ones he had faith in anymore. Maybe she would stop, he thought. Maybe she wouldn't be able to do it, because she loved him too much.

"Nobuyuki!" Yori shouted, tackling him to the ground before Emi could lunge the sword into him. "Nobu! Snap out of it!" He yelled, rolling around while still holding onto me to avoid her stab attempts.

Nobuyuki finally snapped out of it and came to the realization that his Aunt didn't care about them anymore, that she hated them even. He knew he had to fight back, or else he would die. Both he and Yori would die. He looked at his brother, and finally he had the determination to do it. They would kill Aunt Emi for her betrayal.

"Stay still!" She shrieked. The two boys melted into the earth beneath them. She looked around desperately. She wouldn't die the same way Hayato did, she was determined that wouldn't happen. She heard dark, demented laughter echoing through the trees, silhouettes appearing here and there.

"Demons!" she shouted. "Show yourselves!" They both appeared before her, standing side by side with a dead, grim look, staring her right in the eye. She started to tremble and she didn't know why. She had raised these too, they should never make her feel fear. She tried to force the image of them as young children, Nobuyuki crying and his brother trying to cheer him up, into her mind. It did nothing. She saw nothing but malice, as if they had seen some great, evil secret.

"Aunti." Nobuyuki chimed with a sickly smile. She stared wide eyed. She was too busy watching Nobuyuki to notice that Yori had sunk back into the ground.

"Do you want to join daddy." Yori whispered in her ear from behind her. She turned around quickly, swinging her sword wildly in fear. She had felt sharp pain in her ear but she didn't realize what it was until she saw what was hanging out of Yori's mouth. He smiled demonicly as he chewed on her ear, slowly savoring it.

"You taste even BETTER than daddy!" He said. She couldn't move, paralyzed with fear. "Now part of you is already with him."

"I want a taste!" Nobuyuki whined from behind her and she whipped around, pointing the katana at him. He laughed and melted into the ground. Yori followed his example and she heard the laughter again. She felt she was slowly losing her mind. Did Yori just EAT her ear? She decided the best thing to do was to run.

She seemed to have gotten away, running through the forest clutching her head where her ear used to be. And then she saw something in the middle of the road. It was a green scroll. She thought it could be a trap. But… that was the scroll her husband had died for! She had to get it!

"When a fly or a bug goes into that mouth," Nobuyuki whispered to his brother.

She walked over to it, scanning the area first. She didn't see any sign of them. She reached down to get it.

"the two leaves that look like a mouth clamp shut" Yori whispered back with a sick grin.

As soon as she touched it, a rope went around her feet and she was strung upside down, dropping her sword.

"Look, the little fly fell for it Yori."

"Yes. She did." Yori said, a toothy smile showing his pleasure at that fact. Nobuyuki and Yori stared at their Aunt dispassionately. She looked desperate and scared out of her mind. Wondering what monsters she had raised.

"The two leaves have to work together to trap the enemy." Yori said darkly

"Once they do they gobble it up" Nobuyuki sounded after him.

"And that's what they do to survive."
