Somebody Help Me Chapter 21
"Who's Neji?" Aina asks, looking at the man limp form curiously. Hanabi shakes out her shock and stares at the man with disbelief.
"He's my cousin," Hanabi answers, running her fingers through her hair. They crawl up next to Neji, and Aina pokes him to make sure he's real.
"He's cute," Aina says, aweing at the man's face. Hanabi glares at Aina then quickly turns her attention back to her cousin. "I wonder what type of mess he got into to get caught up in Kabuto's web," she says, flipping the man on his back. The two girls carefully studies Neji's injuries.
"He has a few scars, nothing real damaging," Hanabi states, caressing her cousin's face. Aina looks at the man skeptical.
"Hanabi, are you sure this is your cousin?"
Hanabi looks back at Aina offended. "Of course I'm sure."
"We thought that 'Obito' in the woods, were really Obito the policemen. It turn out to be Ukon," Aina huffs, folding her arms. "I just think we should check."
Hanabi rolls her eyes frowning. "How do you suggest we do that?"
"Remember how we found out that 'Obito' was a fake," Aina says, quoting Obito. Hanabi tries to think back to three hours ago, but a major headache came on.
"No I can't," Hanabi says, holding her head in pain. "Ukon pulled off his mask when I threw the rock at him, so maybe this isn't your cousin." Hanabi lets her tears fall and looks at Aina in pain.
"This is my cousin." Aina glares at the body and Hanabi.
"Fine, but I'm not speaking to or saying anything in front of him until I'm convinced. I can't trust people easily anymore." Hanabi sighs and touch the bump on the back of her head the gun hit. She hisses in at contact.
"I understand your point."
"So what are we gonna do?" Aina asks, poking the man again.
"Stop poking him and we'll just wait until he wakes up," Hanabi replies to the younger girl.
Sasuke drives around looking for his cousin. 'Where the hell is he?' he thinks making a left turn. 'Obito's not in his house, his favorite coffee shop, or in his car.' Sasuke takes out his cell phone and try calling him again. Sasuke grunts, throwing his phone in the back seat.
"Stupid piece of junk," he mutters, shaking his head. 'I can't contact Obito,' Sasuke thinks sinking down in his seat. A dark green car speeds pass him out of nowhere. The car was going seventy in a thirty five speed zone. Sasuke speeds after the car
"Today is not the day," the Uchiha grumbles, turning on the siren. The green car tires screeches loudly as it makes a sharp left turn. Sasuke does the same, making the car jerk as he accelerates faster. The chase finally stops in ten minutes, after making four left and three right turns. The green car pulls over and Sasuke do to right behind it. Sasuke surveys the neighborhood realizing its abandon. 'It must've been years since someone occupy this neighborhood,' he thinks getting out his car. Buildings were broken down and gray, overgrown plants and weeds, there are absolutely no windows in the house, just wood covering it. The gray steel gates are turning rusty brown and crows are on electrical lines. Sasuke gets out the car suspicious as why the car pulled over in this dead area. He takes out his gun, cautiously walking to the vehicle.
'This might be a trap,' Sasuke thinks, observing his surroundings. He stares into the vehicle seeing no movement or figure. 'What the hell?' he thinks, going to the driver seat.
"The car is empty," he says, surprise. Sasuke quickly turns around, pointing his gun and Mama and Kyra. Mama, cool and calm, keeps her hands to her side, putting her hand on Kyra's shoulder.
"You don't have to point ya gun at us," Kyra say, putting up her hands. Mama looks and shakes her head at the child, who is still holding her hands up high.
"Is this him?" she asks her granddaughter. Kyra grins, nodding her head.
"Yep, this Uchiha Sasuke," Kyra confirms.
"Who are you two and how do you know my name?" Sasuke says in a stern voice, not putting down his gun. Mama smiles at the young man, then glance down at Kyra. Kyra looks up at her grandma and smiles.
"We know of you because of Hinata and we are Aina's family," Mama explains. Sasuke lowers his gun but does not put it away.
"I do I know-,"
"My auntie has been contacting you, Hinata, Hanabi, and Obito spiritually. She said that Hanabi is now with her but she hasn't have clue where Obito is at," Kyra says putting her hands down. Sasuke puts away his gun, believing them.
"What about Obito? Do you two know where he is?" he asks hopeful. Mama shakes her head sadly.
"Unfortunately, no we don't. Aina told us that she had contacted him earlier-,"
"Wait earlier?" Sasuke asks, confused. 'She contacted him again?'
"Yes, she and Hanabi had escape and where running to a town called 'Blue Creek.' Before Obito had arrived, two of Kabuto's goons captured them again."
"Blue Creek? Obito lives near that town so he's either in the town or been captured," Sasuke ponders out-loud. "So those two are near Blue Creek? It's only an hour drive but where are they in the forest?" He looks back at the two female, still questioning them.
"You two said you are Aina's family. I remember you said she's your auntie," Sasuke says to Kyra, "but who are you to her?"
"I'm her mother and Aina told us to contact you and Hinata because she trusts you two," Mama says tiredly. Sasuke looks at the green car and motions at it.
"Is this your car?"
"Hai. I thought speeding will bring you attention which it did. Before you ask, I needed to bring you to this area because there aren't people around here," Mama responds. Mama rubs her forehead and takes out a piece of paper and pen. "Listen, after you pick up Hinata for lunch, come to my house. I need you and Hinata to help locate my baby," Mama says, writing down her address, then hands it to the Uchiha. The two females walk towards their car.
"How did you know about that?" Sasuke asks, raising his eyebrow. "Oh I popped in the car for a second to see where you were head," Kyra says grinning. Sasuke sweat drops as the girl laughs then get in the car. 'How did I not notice her?' he thinks as they drive off. Sasuke gets in his car, driving back to the police station to talk to Itachi.
"Hanabi, I say we should make sure his face is not a mask," Aina says bored. Hanabi sends Aina a looks that quickly makes the younger girl shut up.
"We'll ask him questions later," Hanabi says. They are sitting back against the wall, with Neji's head propped up on Hanabi's lap. The door creaks open and in pops the freaky twins; Ukon and Sakon. They snatch up Neji roughly despites Hanabi plea to leave him alone. They begin dragging the Hyuuga male out the door.
"What are you going to do to him?" Hanabi yells before they close the door. Sakon smiles, "We're just going to…wake him up." He blows a kiss at Hanabi then closes the door. Aina gives Hanabi a small smile.
"Don't worry Hanabi, they won't kill him," she says consoling the older girl. Hanabi sighs, putting her hands on her lap.
"I hope your right." "I know I'm right," Aina says confident. Ten minutes later, Sakon comes in smiling evily.
"Hyuuga, we demand your presents," he says, yanking the girl up. "No!" Aina yells, jumping up, latching onto Hanabi's arm. Sakon growls and knocks Aina harshly against the wall.
"Oopf," she says, on impact. "Hanabi fight back!" Aina yells as Sakon drags the girl off. Hanabi looks at the teen with sad, tired eyes.
"I'm too tired to try and fighting now will get me nowhere," Hanabi replies looking back.
"I don't want to be alone!" Aina says using the wall to get up.
"Aina stop. He will only hurt you," Hanabi commands.
"Hn, the girl is smart. You should learn from her," Sakon sneers, opening the door. 'I'll be okay,' Hanabi mouths to the teary girl. 'I hope so too,' Aina mouths, as Sakon closes the door. Aina slides back to the floor, crying. She's all alone with no one to talk to.
