Drip. Drip. Drip.
Cold, it was cold.
Cold and uncomfortable.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
Cold. Uncomfortable. Alone.
Alone. Someone had managed to kidnap her from Konoha all alone.
A shinobi village and managed not to get caught.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
Pain, she felt an awful piercing pain all throughout her back and head.
Maybe a concousion.
Wait… Dirt? She was laying on gravel, not an actual floor.
Drip. Drip. Drip.
She could feel something moving around her, scratch that many things. Oh Kmi. Something just squeaked! Finally opening her eyes and getting up she noticed 3 things.
One: It was dark. There was no light source and from the looks of it wherever she was couldn't reach natural lighting.
Two: There was dirt everywhere and water dripped from the ceiling.
Three: Those things from earlier making that sound were rats.
All these things meant one thing. She was underground. She got up to feel out the walls and of course they were made of rocks and dirt. Then something cold. Awesome. What could be worse than being underground with rats? Being trapped in an underground rat infested cell. As the daughter of the T&I Chief Ino knew she was being held hostage for whatever reason and they were going to interrogate her. But since she was Inoichi's daughter it meant she knew about the tricks they were going to try.
They were going to torture her first before interrogating her. She had never been tortured but had been taught (when she was in the Academy) that you only give away your last name and rank. Everything else was confidential and to be kept a secret for the sake of the village. Unfortunately, she was no ordinary kunoichi prisoner but a Clan Heiress which meant she couldn't give away her name either.
She had to think of an alias. A name she could give them that wouldn't give away her Clan and village associations even though they knew her village and her appearance alone gave her away. But it was a matter of discipline and loyalty to ones Clan and Village. Kasumi! She had heard it back when she was in Shimo visiting the Daimyo.
Kasumi. Kasumi. Kasumi. She thought to herself like a mantra. She had to survive through all this until someone came to rescue her or she could escape. Sitting down she began to concentrate. She was still unable to use Chakra and get in contact with Wolf but as a Yamanaka her mind was essentially made for situations like these.
He father had told her stories of how Ibiki sometimes 'took care' of prisoners to make them squeal. He liked to make them wait so that they could psych themselves out before he went in with torture devices. She had to remain calm and try to memorize anything that stood out to her that could possibly help her escape when they finally came and got her. All she could do was recite her 'name' and patiently wait
'============================================================================"
Hours Later:
It was difficult to tell time much less whether it was day or night since it was pitch black where she was being contained. She hadn't known how long she was out earlier so that also affected her sense of time. She was growing impatient of this waiting game. She wanted to yell at whoever had her and tell them to just start and fuck off but knew that was what they wanted.
So, she would either pace around her miniscule prison or sit and try to remember anything distinguishable about the man that had originally taken her. No matter how hard she tried nothing would come to mind. She continued to wait until finally she began to fall asleep.
"============================================================================"
Back in Konoha:
Tsunade had been trying to keep busy with paper work before Inoichi arrived and later Shikamaru. She wasn't sure it Shikaku was going to be there for it but she hoped he would since only he would be able to trick his son. She and Ino had agreed that Shikamaru needed his memory of her being in the village erase but she had tried to hold it off as long as possible.
Using the upcoming Chunin Exams and all the work he had to do for her as an excuse for him not to 'visit' Ino. It had worked for the first two days but she could see he was growing impatient and weary of her tricks. He had started to work more diligently and was finishing paper work faster than she could dish out. Something she normally would have been over joyed to see but right now it was only making her stress out.
It had been 3 going on 4 days since Ino and Kakashi left. Though it was odd the way they gone, well Ino at least. Like she had vanished out of thin air and Kakashi seemed rather jumpy when he bid his goodbyes to her. She had expected to see them both off but wasn't able to. Kakashi seemed so on edge but nervous, no not nervous maybe scared of something?
"Tsunade-hime you called for me?" Inoichi had knocked on her door before slowly entering. He went and stood in the center of the room and bowed before standing at attention. "Yes, I did. You see what I am about to ask of you is of the utmost importance and I hope you will comply." She stated trying to leave all emotions out of her voice. Inoichi looked at his Hokage somewhat confused but nodded his head unable to refuse her.
"As you know Shikamaru was made aware of Ino's presence in the Village because of her encounter with Danzo's men." At the mention of his daughter's attackers his stare hardened but he merely nodded keeping him anger in check. "As Shikaku's teammate you know how curious and smart a Nara can be. Well Shikamaru has been asking questions. Ones that he doesn't need to know. Ino, Shikaku and I agreed that Shikamaru's memories should be erased. At least of him seeing her because if they aren't when she comes back he could end up jeopardizing any future missions of hers. Not that we don't trust him but he is very 'protective' you could say of your daughter and could take it upon himself to step it. We cannot have that. Do you understand what I'm getting at?" She stopped and looked at him hoping she wouldn't have to explain any more than necessary.
Inoichi looked out the large windows that showed his beautiful village and sighed. If Shikaku and Ino both thought it was for the best he would trust his best friend and daughter. He didn't like it but he knew how important it was to do it. He always hated going into family or friend's minds because it made him aware of many secrets most wished to be hidden. He didn't like knowing everything about someone so close to him but if he had to he would do everything in his power to make it as quick as possible for both parties. With that in mind he looked back at Tsunade and said, "I understand Tsunade-hime. When will we do this?" His head slightly tilted to the side.
"In about 5 minutes, he's on his way now." She said trying to hide her concern with a sheepish smile. Inoichi could only let out an exasperated sigh, "Of course. You knew I would agree." Tsunade became serious once more and shook her head, "No I didn't but I knew you valued Shikaku and Ino's opinions." He nodded his head and looked away trying to find anything else to say before Shikamaru got there. Tsunade understood his discomfort and offered him a drink which he graciously denied. Something about mixing alcohol and mind jutsu's just didn't sit well with him.
After a few more awkward minutes Shikaku and Shikamaru came into the room. Both fathers nodded at each other wordlessly conveying their thoughts. "Shikamaru, you have been working very hard lately and I have taken account of it." Tsunade said getting Shikamaru's attention. He was already trying to figure out why his father had accompanied him and why Inoichi was there. "Thank you Hokage-sama. But why is Inoi-" Suddenly he felt his body freeze and his father mutter behind him, "Shadow Possession Complete." Before he could ask anything Inoichi swiftly went to him and placed a hand on his forehead. As his eyes fell he could vaguely hear both Inoichi and Tsunade say something like, "Forgive me."
Shikaku had caught his son as his body went limp under Inoichi's jutsu. He looked at Tsunade and only nodded his head as she looked on behind closed hands at his son and best friends. Inoichi had first put Shikamaru in a sleep induced genjutsu, one he had perfected and tried on Shikaku when they were children. Once he was fully asleep he dove into his mind and went straight for his memory bank. Like his father, it was a filing room and was heavily organized and filled with traps but because he was his father's son he knew all his tricks. Like how their memories were in the most obvious place. Not in the Cabinets but in the desks left hand drawer.
Opening it up all of Shikamaru's memories came flooding out and displaying in front of him. His infancy memories and school memories. Ones with his father and others with the deer they raised. Personal memories that weren't meant to be seen so he sifted through them quickly and landed on his most recent ones with Ino. There! He saw when Shikamaru had found his daughter out in training ground 10. Completely beat and passed out on the floor a few feet away from her assailants. As he was beginning to modify the memory he was able to feel what Shikamaru had felt when he had realized it was Ino.
Fear, worry, confusion, heartache, relief that she was home, love, con- wait love? Inoichi kept looking at his memories of when Shikamaru visited Ino at the hospital and wanted to just hug her and comfort her and his heart broke because he was going to have to take away all hope and love this boy had for his beautiful daughter. Not wanting to stay longer he modified all of Shikamaru's recent memories with his daughter and made it so she was no longer in them and all feeling he had were gone. He omitted him ever going to the hospital as well and the meeting they were having. He would wake up and be back in his home in his room waking up from what he thought was a well-deserved nap.
Leaving his mind it took him awhile to steady himself but after a few second he stood up straight looked at Shikaku and Tsunade and muttered out, "Put him in his bedroom. Its complete." And walked out not wanting to expose Shikamaru's secret. He himself didn't even know how to feel about it but he was happy his daughter was at least loved dearly. He just needed to leave before he thought too much about what the future would hold for them.
Tsunade looked at Shikaku somewhat shocked and confused but he understood his best friend and merely excused himself with his son on his back. Kami I hope you both forgive me after this Ino, Shikamaru. Shikaku thought as he left the tower in the dead of night. Tsunade could only bite her lip and pray to Kami that this all worked out.
"============================================================================"
In the Underground Labyrinth:
Being kicked awake was not pleasant in the least. She had been startled but immediately began to punch, kick and scream with all her might. Desperately trying to fend off her attacker. A swift punch to her temple caused her to freeze up and cause her eyes to water and blur. Grabbing her by the back of her shirts collar, a white masked man began to drag her out of her prison cell.
The back of her legs and butt were getting cut up from the rocky ground and made it difficult to keep fighting. Her eye sight was too blurry for her to see clearly but it didn't stop her from trying to memorize all the twists and turns they did in what seemed to be an underground labyrinth.
Finally, she was thrown into an empty pitch black room. Once inside the masked man spoke, "Sit cross legged with your hands under your ass. Do not, I repeat DO NOT get out of that position." His voice was deep and ominous. When she didn't immediately comply, she earned a beating. After instructing her a few more times and her defying him and earning some more beatings she begrudgingly followed directions.
Her face was a bloody mess and her limbs ached. Once the man seemed content with her he left. She waited a few minutes to make she he was gone before she slowly got up and tried to explore the room. She didn't get far in her search when a loud demanding voice began to boom throughout the room. "Detainee, you are to get back in the position you were instructed. If you cannot we will take the necessary measures to make you understand. This is your only warning."
Choosing to ignore them she stayed standing and tried to feel her way around the room. A few minutes later another man with an owl mask came into the room and gave her a thorough beating. Once she was a crumple bloody lump he pulled out a black burlap bag from his pocket. "Now you've done it you little bitch." She heard Owl say before putting the back over her head and putting ear muffs on her.
She could feel him moving around her and had to use all the strength she had in order to stay calm and not let her fear show. Suddenly she was lifted off the ground and roughly thrown down. Before she could fight let alone move she felt a small gust of air hit her face then nothing. Frantically she tried to move but found she couldn't. She was laying on her back with her arms underneath her body and couldn't get up.
She lifted her head and it hit against a rough surface. She tried lifting her legs and the same thing happened. She was stuck in what seemed to be a box. They had taken her sight, hear hearing and mobility. Sensory deprivation. Shit! Shit! Shit! Okay fuck stay calm! They are doing this to try and break me. It won't work on me! Think happy thoughts, remove yourself from this situation. She tried to think of her father, family and friends but that only made her heart ache.
Feeling the hot tears gather in her eyes she tried her hardest to wish them away but they began to over flow. It set in. Whoever had her was torturing her and it was only the beginning. She was alone defenseless and helpless. Silently she cried her eyes out not wanting to give her captors the sense that they were winning. She continued crying until she knocked herself out from sheer stress and exhaustion.
"============================================================================"
Elsewhere in the labyrinth:
"31 hours. Phase one complete." A masked man covered in black clothing whispered to himself. He studied the monitor that showed the interior of the detainee's room.
"============================================================================"
In the box:
She had dreamt of home and going to eat with her boys and Asuma. It had been so nice and they had such a lovely time but the whole time in the pit of her stomach she felt a heavy dread. One she couldn't quite explain and as the dream progressed the heaviness grew until out of nowhere their faces contorted in pain and melted off. Her village burned all around her and she was engulfed in flames.
Jolting out of her nightmare her body hit the same hard surface it had hit earlier. She still couldn't hear or see anything. Her arms were numb and her shoulders screamed in agony. Drenched in sweat she bit her lip to stop the screams that wanted to erupt from her throat out of fear and frustration. That's right. I'm being held captive. The sweat and lack of clothing made her body tremble uncontrollably trying to generate any heat it could to fight off hypothermia.
Kasumi, my name is Kasumi. I don't know anything else. Just my name. I have no village, not family, no ties. Just Kasumi. It was all she could tell herself. Thinking of home reminded her of her nightmare and homesickness. Be strong. They can't break me. I am Kasumi. I'm not afraid of anything. Don't cry. Suddenly the stuffiness from the box was gone and she was being yanked out by her collar.
Far too weak to put up a fight she allowed whoever had her to drag her body. The cuts from being dragged didn't bother her as much since her whole body was already aching. After a few minutes, she was brought into a dimly lit sterile smelling room. She was forced to stand and her arms where held above her head. Her legs where shaking barely able to hold her weight. Something cold and heavy was put around her wrists.
Hand cuffs or shackles. Her head hung low since she was too weak to keep it up. The ear muffs and burlap bag were removed from her head. When she finally cracked an eye open she realized she was alone. As she looked down to assess herself she saw just how mangled and dirty her body really was. She used all the strength she had to stay standing knowing that if her legs gave out she'd be hanging by her wrists and it would result in possible shoulder dislocation.
Ino tried to count the minutes that passed but after around 4 hours it became too tedious, mind numbing and depressing. Her left eye was swollen shut and she knew her other eye wasn't faring any better. Unexpectedly white blinding light lit up the room and burned her retina. Closing her 'good' eye in an attempt to shield it from further damage she was unable to see another masked man enter the room. He walked slowly to her and stopped when he was directly in front of her.
Reaching out he forcefully gripped her chin, "Open your eyes." A velvety voice commanded above a whisper. Resentfully Ino did as she was told and was met with a sparrow mask. Every other part of the man was covered, "Listen closely, I will only ask this once. What is your name? if you chose not to answer or answer incorrectly and we find out you will be severely punished." The man said emotionlessly.
"Kasumi" Ino hoarsely mumbled. It strained her throat to speak since she hadn't had any water or over used it when screaming earlier. "Good girl." The man said letting her chin go gently and reaching for something behind him. Too afraid to see what he was going to pull out she shut her eye tightly closed. She had expected him to pull out a weapon or some torture device and was waiting for a blow but instead something was pressed against her lips.
When she peered to see what it was she was surprised to see a canteen. "Drink." And she did greedily. After a few moments of letting her get her fill Sparrow spoke again, "What Clan are you affiliated with?" For a split second, she froze but hit it and let her head fall. A long period of silence stretched then with a force she hadn't expected was punched in the gut.
The blow was so strong that she not only coughed up blood but lost control of her bowls and urine. Covered in her own filth, blood and dirt she shut her eyes now too terrified and embarrassed to look at Sparrow. "Wrong answer." Sparrow whispered before ripping her black shirt off effectively leaving her naked and leaving. Once she was alone she began to sob uncontrollably.
What had she gotten herself into.
"============================================================================"
Hours later:
She had been hanging there for Kami knows how long and her legs had given out long ago causing her body to hang excruciatingly. The shackles had dug deep into her wrists and they bled for some time. Now the bleeding had stopped and began to coagulate causing it to harden and set. She smelled, felt repulsive and was beginning to lose hope than anyone would come and rescue her.
The lights would come on and off at random intervals making sleep impossible. She was so sleepy, exhausted and in pain that her mind stopped working and jumbled all her thoughts together. She didn't know how long she was in that room but finally Canary went in. She hadn't seen him since he had kidnapped her. "Shower time." He sneered and did the hand signs for the water style, Raging Waves Jutsu. The force of the water was so powerful Ino couldn't help but scream in agony.
When Canary was done 'washing' her he went and released her. Catching her before her body hit the floor he carried her out of the room. Tunnels, they were going through a maze of tunnels with doors randomly placed on either side. Ino couldn't stop her body from pressing as hard as it could to Canary trying to steal as much body heat as possible. Once they reached a jail cell she was carelessly thrown in.
Pulling out another black shirt he threw it at her, locked the door and left. Hurriedly Ino went to pick up the shirt and put it over her trembling body. Her teeth were chattering and her hands were numb. Going into the corner of the room she balled herself up putting her arms into the shirt to try and preserve any heat she had. How long has it been since I've been here? I'm starving. Kakashi-sensei are you looking for me? Please find me. She desperately thought to herself as she rocked herself to sleep. Sleep, her only sweet relief.
"============================================================================"
Much Later:
Again, she was jolted awake but this time from a dreamless sleep. Looking around she was relieved to see that at least this time there was a light source. Although it was dim the flames from a wall torch across from her allowed her to inspect her cell. Still dingy, wet and muddy but the rats seemed to be gone. Probably warded off by the light of the flame.
Slowly she stretched her arms and legs out to assess what was bruised, bleeding or possibly broken. "AGH! FUCK!" She screamed as an immense pain shot from her left shoulder causing it to throb and sting simultaneously. Definitely a dislocated shoulder. Fuck.
Her scream seemed to have signaled her captors because a few moments later Own came out of nowhere. This time with a poor excuse of a sandwich and water. He slid the food through the bars not caring when they destroyed the sandwich and scrapped across the dirt floor. "Eat." He said before leaving.
Ino was way to hungry to care that the food now had dirt and mud and shoveled it down her throat with her right hand. She was starving! Her arm hung by her stinging in utter discomfort but she ignored it choosing the food over the pain. Especially when she didn't know when she'd be getting her next 'meal'. After she finished she went back to her corner, cradled her left broken arm and tried to use her mind telepathy jutsu.
Anyone?! Sensei! Please if you can hear me say something. Anything to let me know it's working. Please. I'm so tired. I don't want to believe that no one is looking for me or I'm too far away to be found but my ability to hope is slipping. I just need a sign. Answer me if you can hear me. ANYONE! PLEASE! Don't leave me alone to die here. I can't die here.
Waiting for a couple of hours she figured that either she was too far away for her jutsu to reach anyone or it just wasn't working because or her inability to use chakra. I'm alone. Was all she could think as the tears streamed down her face and she lulled herself to sleep.
"============================================================================"
Days later:
The days went on in that fashion until she finally stopped crying. Stopped feeling and lived meal to meal. She had tried to fight it but just as her tears had ceased so did her will to fight. She still couldn't contact Wolf or anyone else for that matter and eventually stopped trying. She was asked the same questions over and over. 'Where are you from? What Clan are you in? What secretes can you give us?' and every time she answered with silence. She would then either receive a beating for be put in the box with sensory deprivation or in the sterile room with the bright light.
She hated the sterile room the most because she would always end up in her waste bleeding and naked. She hated it because she knew they were watching her and she couldn't do anything but hang there praying in her head to be let go. It never happened and it would stop with Canary hosing her down taking her to her 'room' and her falling asleep with a broken shoulder, wrist or rib.
By know she felt dead inside. No one would save her so why didn't she just give in and sell out her Clan or Village? Because she was and would most likely die loyal to both. As Kakashi had taught her, 'anyone who disobeyed the rules was scum but anyone who left a comrade behind was worse', she used this as anyone who sold out their village and clan as leaving a comrade behind. Even though technically she was being left behind in a sense. But she tried not to think that way since it was just what they wanted her to think and feel.
Then one day instead of being taken to the sterile room or the box Owl brought her to an interrogation room. Finally! After all this time! If I don't give them any answers they'll most likely kill me and I can be free. Owl sat her down on a metal chair, tied her legs together and her hands behind her back. The table in front of her had a tank of water in it. Owl left and shortly after Canary went in and sat across from her. He looked to the side once he was all comfortable and nodded his head.
Another second later a new man, with a raven mask, entered and went to stand besides Ino quietly. "Now my little bird. Today will be the day you finally sing for me." Canary said sweetly. For some reason that had made Ino snap. Maybe it was the fact that she knew she was going to die or the way he seemed so smug with himself but Ino the real Ino Yamanaka was not going to let him have the last word. She was beyond pissed and honestly wasn't afraid anymore.
Looking defiantly but at him she gave him a sick smile and spat out, "FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!" It had felt so good to finally say what she had wanted to and was going to continue and rip him a new one but was grabbed by the back of her head and slammed into the tank of water. Her body thrashed violently to get out and have the oxygen it needed. Her lungs burned as water entered through her mouth and nose. I'M SORRY DADDY I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO SUCCEED YOU AND MAKE YOU PROUD BUT I'M SO DONE AND TIRED!
Her head was released and she pulled her head out of the water gasping for all the oxygen her lungs could get. "Let's try this again. What Clan are you affiliated with?" Canary asked anger lacing his voice. "I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING YOU GODDAMN PIECE OF SH-" Again her head was jammed into the water and her body jerked and shook trying to break free from Raven's hold. Asuma-sensei, Kurou-nii, Kakashi-sensei, Jiji I tried my best. I recall all the words you all spoke to me. I wish I wasn't miles away from the ones I love!
Her head was pulled out of the water and her lungs felt like they were dying. Gasping for air she heard Canary ask, "Tell me about Konohagakure! About Uzumaki Naruto!" In between coughs she aggressively screamed at him to fuck off. Back her head went in the water and her body was growing so very tired. Choji I miss you and love you so much. I'm sorry I wasn't kinder to you. There's nothing here for me anymore. Shika I'm sure you'll be glad to be rid of such a troublesome woman. Kami I love you! But I'm so so tired. Don't be mad at me for giving up.
Once her head was above water Canary said with an exasperated sigh, "This is the last time I'm asking you anything. After this if you don't respond correctly I'll kill you." He paused and let her breath in enough air, "Tell me about your village and about your Jinchuriki, Uzumaki Naruto!" Ino looked up and with a sweet smile. Fear no longer in her eyes and her body no longer trembling from terror she said as calm yet certain as ever, "Kill me."
Canary shooed Raven away and waited for him to leave and close the door behind him. He slowly stood up and walked around the table to stand behind her. He leaned down and whispered with finality, "As you wish." He shoved her head in the tank of water and held her down. In the mist of her body thrashing around her let undid her arm ties and leg ties. After a few more seconds he let her go and poofed out of there.
As her head rose from the water she coughed and gasped for air when she opened her eyes she was ready to scream some more but was met with an empty room. Her arm and leg ties were undone and she was confused. Is this another trick?! Are they going to play cat and mouse with me and let me try to escape before they kill me?! Ino looked around trying to decide what to do. She hadn't expected it. She knew she didn't really have a chance considering she was way too beaten and weak to make it far plus she didn't have her chakra. But was it so wrong of her to maybe have just the smallest bit of hope and faith in herself to try and escape. FUCK YEAH!
So, with as the strength she had left she walked out of the room and was in a tunnel. There were torches illuminating the way and she retraced her steps back to her cell. Using the walls for stability she made her way and kept going. She didn't know if she was going deeper into the labyrinth or the opposite way but she kept going. It was odd that she hadn't been confronted by any of the masked men she had met but just chose to ignore it and cheered herself on to keep going until she either made it out or was killed. No one would be able to say she didn't try.
After what seemed like hours she had gone passed her cell and down a narrow tunnel. But she could feel it… even if it was faint a breeze! Oh kami! Please let me at least see the sun or moon one last time! The adrenaline in her started to boost and she felt her legs running carrying her further towards the breeze. She didn't care that every joint in her body throbbed she just kept going. Suddenly she started noticing the dirt change into patches of grass and the air becoming less murky.
There she could see the light at the end of the tunnel and for a minute she wasn't sure if she was dying for had died and this is the moment many spoke about but she was going towards it with full force. Tears streaming down her face, tears she didn't know she still had until finally she was out! It took a while for her to notice she was out because of the blinding light but she kept running until she hit something rather hard and sturdy. When her eyes finally adjusted to the light she realized she was hugging a large oak tree. There was foliage and a beautiful forest in front of her just like home! I'm dead I knew it! She thought as she hugged the tree with all her might and cried.
In her moment, she didn't hear or sense the person behind her until he cleared his throat. Ino spun around quickly thinking Kami himself was going to greet her but was immediately devastated when Canary stood behind her. No no no no no NO NO NO PLEASE NO! she thought as she looked at Canary and he reached his hand up to his mask. Ino was mentally dying not really knowing what to expect when he slowly slipped his mask off.
What. You? She thought before she somehow found her voice and croaked out,
"You? Why, I… I don't understand?" and fell to the ground in a crying mess. The shock had been too great for her and she passed out. Slowly Canary went and picked her up as gently as he could, moving the hair that was in her face and tenderly kissing her forehead. "I'm sorry." He whispered as tears streamed down his own face.

Lol Escrever esse momento com Kakashi foi importante para mim porque ele é alguém que ela tem vindo a confiar e amar. Seu mútuo eu acredito e mostra como ele a valoriza. Sim, vai ficar ainda mais difícil para eles e eu tentei mostrar isso neste capítulo. Eu amo Shika também, mas isso tinha que acontecer, confie em mim.
