Ch 22

The Sounds New Leader

Kin woke up in pain. The seal on her stomach was burning like a red hot iron. In this pain she felt a flow of chakra. This chakra was not her own, but then it was. When the pain was over she looked at the seal that Kabuto had given her. It was a dead seal. Kin took a couple deep breaths before collapsing into tears. Kabuto had told her that he cared for her. Finally she had had someone who cared.

Flashback……..

Kin was a young girl again. She was running through the village that was the new sound village. She had just finished a day at the academy. When she got home she made herself a snack because her parents were on a mission. Then she heard a knock at the door. She jumped up to answer it. Two ninja stood there.

"You have to come with us. Your parents were killed on the mission."

Another Flashback……………

She was standing there at the training grounds. No one would train with her. Her sexist Sensei would not send her to the chunin exams. She started throwing her senbons and the targets. She hit them almost every time. Missing only by millimeters.

"Want a tip?" Kin spun around. Standing a few feet from her was Kabuto. Orochimaru's right hand man. There was no one else there. He was talking to her. He walked up to her.

"What would you know about throwing senbons?" she asked.

Kabuto smirked in response took two out and threw them. They hit the mark perfectly.

"How'd you-"

"I work with senbons as well."

"Show me how."

"Alright."

The rest of the day he stood behind her and held onto her arm showing her how to throw more accurately. She was a fast learner and he was a good teacher.

Present………………………

She was heading back. She had failed the mission, but she knew the village still needed her. What she didn't know was that she was now the leader of the sound.

The guards at the gait welcomed her back with a bow. She went to find one of the sound four, but they found her first. They immediately told her that the elders wanted to see her. The elders were ninja's who could no longer fight.

"Kin do you know who Lord Kabuto named successor in the unlikely event that he would die?"

"I would not. It was not my place to know."

"It was you."

Kin stood there looking at the elder who had told her this. A woman who could no longer walk. This had to be a prank. No one in the village would listen to her. One of the council members must have known what she was thinking for the next thing that was said was, "This is no joke. Kin you are Lord Kabuto's successor, the leader of the Sound."

"Well then, does any one know exactly how he could have died?"

"We were hoping you would have an idea."

"Thank you."

Kin left the room. Leader of the Sound. The title sounded wrong with her. It belonged to Kabuto not her. "Lady Kin," said a voice. She turned around it was Tauya of the sound four.

"Tauya how did he die?"

"You mean Lord Kabuto?" Kin nodded. "It was Shikamaru Nara that killed him. Some sort of shadow sword technique."

"Thank you. Go find the others I have to speak with them as well."

"Yes Lady Kin."

Okay so it was a Kin chapter but I don't know what else to write XD. I might do a sequel when this is done. If not then this chapter is a filler. See the pretty purple button? Press it and review. You then get candy! .
