Now, second…
Here's the next chapter!
The Journal of Kimberly
(Konan's P.O.V)
"Who are… the Akatsuki?"
That was the first thing Mrs. Amber asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"The Akatsuki are the main S-rank, criminal organization in the ninja world."
That was my response.
"… What ninja world?"
That was the second thing Mrs. Amber asked.
"The ninja world is not of this world… It consists of shinobi, such as I, Konan, as well as lands, ninja villages, and leaders."
That was my second response.
Silence.
"So, you aren't my daughter?"
Her third question.
"In short, no."
"My third response.
Another silence.
A long one.
I waited.
And finally, she spoke.
"Okay then… If you aren't my daughter… please do what you can, Konan… was it? To bring my daughter back."
And that was the end of our discussion.
After that, Mrs. Amber got up and left, leaving me alone, sitting on the couch.
To be honest, I felt bad for that woman but this wasn't my fault and I, just as much as she did, wanted to switch back.
The next morning, seeing there was nothing else to do, I met Axe at the playground again. We had our usual laughs and folded origami together. That was, until, out of the corner of my eye, I spotted Kimberly's friend, Pauline I believe it was, peering into bushes and looking around the park with another boy who I didn't recognize. I was curious, but then again, I didn't really know the girl too well so I didn't have any business with her.
When I returned back to the Amber's house late that evening, Mrs. Amber didn't talk to me much. She glanced up from the dishes that she was washing and asked in a bland tone,
"Did you have fun hanging out with Axe today?"
"Yes," I said, nodding and heading upstairs. For some reason, she seemed to be mad at me. To be perfectly honest, I didn't understand why, I mean, it wasn't my fault! She could at least be a little kinder.
The next few days passed along quietly with me being with Axe most of the days, David being obnoxious around the house, and Mrs. Amber with her household chores.
Late one night, in my bedroom, I was looking through Kimberly's drawer for some different origami papers when I stumbled across an orange, spiral notebook. Taking it from the shelf, I sat down at the desk and leafed through the heavily penciled pages, my eyes scanning each one briefly. Then, it struck me. This must be… It has to be! This is Kimberly's journal.
WOW… this chapter now has the record for the shortest chapter ever… TT^TT
Ah well, hope you guys enjoyed it nonetheless!
Please please review! I'm begging you!
(do it for the rhyme that I just said :P)
Until next time, bye bye!
