REVIEWER CORNER OVER

Sol: Happy chapter ten!

Raingirl: Trust me, this is an accomplishment for me. My Nabari No Ou story was I think 18 chapters and it took me a year and I believe a month to finish.

Sol: Anyway we're aiming bigger numbers if we can!

Raingirl: Hopefully. Anyway Hidan/Creed isn't here this fabulous morning that I'm sick. Blah.

Sol: So on with the chapter!

It was another hot day and Rini was stuck in the same outfit as yesterday (look at chapter 9) and exactly in the same place. Worry was her emotion, the night before Creed had been so stupid. He sacrificed a ninja which means people are going to be looking for their missing comrade. Sometimes she wondered how they haven't been caught yet with his big mouth. Haru remained oblivious to the weird way Creed acted which made her wonder.

The sketch she was drawing was of some koi fish she saw in Haru's backyard. He had a little pond with a few regular fish but three koi, one was silky white with pink and purple patches so she named it Tama. The other was golden with a few black patches near the snout/mouth so she called him Gin. The last one was all black on one side but all pale on the other, after much debate Rini named him Yu.

The three fish were so cute and always swam together but Yu sometimes was left alone. When that happened she liked to talk to Yu so he wouldn't be all alone. It may seem weird that she was talking to a fish but she found it calming and some times she would just sit in her chair and draw the fish.

It was afternoon when a shadow blocked her light, looking up she saw Rei. This guy was fifteen with black hair that was like Pein's hair only longer and more annoying. Rini had met him a week before and he claimed the bridge area was his, that unless you needed to just pass through you weren't allowed.

Rini glared up at the guy and wished she could punch his face. He loved that she was short and never stood up but she had a mouth. He snatched her sketch book and looked through it briefly.

"Koi fish? What idiot wastes time drawing Koi fish?" He replied and tossed the book down.

"The same type of person who is telling you to get a life." Was the reply.

"That's your comeback?"

"Sorry, my brother told me not to do that with strangers." Rini replied with a half smile on her face, Creed had taught her that one.

"Whatever, just get off the land!" He said, "You're not using it for anything important."

"I am actually. I have to wait for my brother and his friend." Rini stated and went back to drawing with her left hand. "They should be here in a few hours."

"Hours!" He said.

"Are you deaf? Yes, in a few hours." Rini restated. "Is that a problem?"

"Hell yeah it is!" He yelled, "You are in the way. My friends and I want to go swimming."

"Ok, then why don't you? Me being here isn't stopping you."

"We don't own swim clothes."

"Boxers were invented a long time ago."

"Were not going to leave spares for you to see."

"I live with guys. I sometimes have to do laundry. I've seen boxers and if you want to swim go ahead, I'm drawing."

"You're a weird chick." Rei sighed then suddenly smiled, "Maybe you should cool off." Rei pushed her into the river then as she screamed.

On impact she felt the cold through her clothes and furiously moved her left arm but couldn't swim up. She tried to move her right arm as panic got the best of her. She wasn't fond of the cold since it was like being frozen in the ice again, the numb feeling as you slowed and froze over. The ice caused her pain, headaches and memory loss that was slowly coming back.

Before she was ever able to move anything it hurt, her neck had cracked when ever she moved it suddenly, her spine had gotten stuck and she had to will herself to move it, and during training she went through pain to get feeling back in her left arm and hand. Each time it hurt more and if she wasn't careful she could shatter the bones that were still frozen. That pain was back and she couldn't tell from where, it all seemed to just blend in as she choked for air.

Rini was aware that something was in the water and pulling her up to the surface but all she felt was the burning pain. Her eyes were closed as they broke the surface and she choked on the air after spitting up water. She heard her code name over and over along with shouting voices in the background. She recognized the voices, Shikamaru who must have pulled her out, Kiba was yelling at someone, as Ino and Hinata huddled around her.

Then she heard that voice, the same one who always did such stupid things. His voice was loud and angry, his footsteps heavy as he ran forward. Rini knew something was wrong and didn't open her eyes as she said, "Creed, I want to go home." Her voice was small but easily heard and no sooner was she picked up bridal style by him. Creed was saying something about her things and one was a threat to Rei about slowly killing him. They were walking then but it seemed like a blur of colors.

"How'd you know?" Rini asked in a small voice.

"You have one hell of a scream, heard you all the way over." Creed stated, "Konan and the others are going to kill me for this."

It was then he noticed she was shaking. "Hey what's wrong?"

"My right arm, it burns and my right leg is in pain." Rini stated, "Is anyone around?"

Creed closed the door of the house, "No."

Rini opened her eyes and Creed frowned as he saw that her eyes were a fiery color with small lines of white with small blue and ice white drops, five in total around the black pupil. "Your eyes activated, shit."

"I don't know when they could have but look." Rini stated and slowly moved her right arm and her right foot but nothing else budged. Creed set her down on the couch and left the room, came back, looked around, and said, "Holy fucking shit, this is fucking screwed up! I can't fucking believe this happened, god I want to fucking sacrifice him!"

"…Creed." Rini said as Creed went on his mini rant but suddenly stopped, "Haru's behind me isn't he?" Rini nodded as Haru started yelling about cussing but at the end told Creed that he was a good person to be threatening Rei, then walked out of the room after making sure Rini was okay. Thankfully her eyes went back to normal only seconds before Haru showed up.

"Ow." Creed groaned from the floor as he slowly got up, "Da..rn that hurts."

"Well I guess its karma getting back at you for swearing." Rini replied and snuggled into the couch, "Hey will you teach me to use my right hand."

"You're right handed naturally; it was hard teaching you how to use your left hand." Creed said as he got off the floor, "You better hope it's not as difficult or I'm out."

"You should help her anyway!" Haru called from the kitchen, "If not I won't even let you say a PG cuss substitution without getting beat up."

"Grr! FINE!" Creed called back, annoyed at the brunette. As Rini fell asleep to their arguing, having a dream with a field and voices calling her name, her real nickname and she turned to the two voices, one had black hair.

Sol: -looks around and see's no one- Uh...Review?
