My head rested against my hand as I sat watching with bored eyes as people swept across the floor dancing to some song that was drowned out by the thoughts in my head. I subtly watched my family target one of the Makatashi family as they attached their string of manipulation to make them their puppets. It's true we do work for the greater good but were still tainted, considering we still have the urge to create havoc. Of course we hold the urges in and instead let them out in other vices we've gained.

Like an old saying I was told, a wolf in sheep's clothing is still a wolf no matter what it looks like and these people who willingly celebrate us as heroes in their own chosen obliviousness are fools. I can't stop the chuckle that escapes my throat and I don't bother acknowledging the people who nervously shuffle away. In the end we the wolves have are own chosen obliviousness, we believe that what we're doing now changes what we are but we are demons no matter what costume we put on.

"Kaze-kage may I speak freely?" I was brought out of my reverie by the voice that had found itself past Haijime and in front of me.
It was a small balding man who looks much too small to be in his kimono, he made it worse by sinking into the clothing when my full attention turned to him.

"Hmm, why not?"

" I am from lightning country, from a village that no longer exists. It was taken out by the Meshikakae two years ago and I remember the White Demon watching while all the innocent people of my village were slaughtered! These people may be tricked by her charming cover but I know that she is a true demon!" The room was silent as they watched what would happen next as the small man was standing right in front of me shaking.

"So? I've never claimed to be anything other then a demon. So don't you think expecting me to remember you or your village or even having any remorse for it a little high ended? You stand there shaking not in anger but in terror, in cowardliness and not in courage so go home little mutt before I get angry."

He looked at me in shock before he banged his hands against the table in front of me and people around us backed up.

"I'm not afraid of death; you took everything worth living for so in my last moment I want to face my demon with out reservation, that is courage!"

I looked at him before a grin made its way across my face and I sat up to face the man before my eyes narrowed in annoyance.

"Courage? I think not. Courage is having the will to live after everything's gone not finding your way into an early grave. Heh, you really piss me off you know? You're pathetic excuse for a man and you have the nerve to say I'm your personal demon? No you little fuck; your demon lies with in you from the moment you chose to run away when I gave you the choice to trade your life for your family."

I stood up and started walking toward him and down the stairs but for every step forward I took forward he took one back till he tripped on the last one and ended up sprawled out on the floor.

"But since you think you can only find courage in death I'll grant the honor of dying by me hands but it won't be slow. That I'll promise you gladly."

"Stop oneesan!" I looked at Aoki and a pain went into my heart when I looked at her pleading face but I know I couldn't back down anymore.

"Shun hold her."

"Hinata-"

"This has nothing to do with you Kazekage-sama, this man wishes to die by my hand then I will not refuse him. I have reached my limit so if any one can not handle it then leave."

I walked past Gaara and the Meshikakae right to the man who was trying to get up, when he was on his knees I kicked him in the stomach and he went to the floor howling in pain. The pleas to for me to stop and Aoki loud crying was particularly heart breaking but no one moved to physically stop me.

I got tired of him trying to get up so I flipped him and broke his legs in the process and a part of me took joy in his cries. He started to crawl away but I pulled him back as I crouched over him. His frantic cries came to stop as he sucked his breath in and held it as he stared into my eyes as it was the last thing he saw before I exploded his heart.

I feel a pounding in my head and I realize the commotion gave me head ache so I get up and I walk out of them room and the building leaving the dead mans corpse as proof that I was there. I trudge my way up the stairs before I lock my door and make my way to my bed. I take off my clothes leaving me in a navy robe lying on my bed staring out through the doorway of my balcony. I hadn't realized I had been sleeping till a shift pulls my out of my sleep and I find Ren staring at me from the balcony with accusing eyes.

"I didn't have choice, she couldn't have remained in the dark about what I am and she had a right to know. And as far as doing it that way… It benefits me for my plan. If Suna remembers what I am then they'll be more inclined to get frightened and send us off. You know I didn't really want to kill him but he would be the type to target Aoki if I hadn't responded to his remarks. Are you angry?"

I looked at from my spot to see the full moon highlight Ren's full body but shadow his face. I slid off the bed to land on my ass in a panic to get up.

"You can't be angry at me, I can't handle it if you hate me too like she does, like they all do. You're the only one who knows me Ren so please I'll do what ever you want but please don't hate me too, I need you."

He moved then and I frowned since my vision was blurry but soft lick on my face made me recognize that my face was wet because I was crying. I wrapped my arms around the bulky soft fur as my hands gripped handfuls of it in desperation. He leaned his head on top of mine as I took comfort in my oldest and truest friend. Later I let go and he stared down at me with sad eyes before he put his giant head in my lap while I stroked behind his left ear.

"You'll stay near me right?" In a sudden movement he gets up and I reach out for him but he's already gone. I rush onto the balcony but he's gone from my sight and I sigh in defeat.

"Hinata?" I blink before I turn to look at Gaara who's standing inside the room staring at me concern before he takes in the rest of me and his eyes turn hungry. I look down to see my robe had opened in my mad dash to catch Ren and Gaara had a nice show. I closed it and crossed my arms while glaring at him.

"I'm not in the mood, go find some noble bitch, I'm sure they'll open up easy enough." I say the words as I walk past him and open the door of my bedroom trying to give him the hint I didn't want him here. Of course Gaara never does what I want him to and instead slams the door and locks me in place between the door and him.

"What the fuck is wrong with you tonight? I don't like you acting this way."

"So? Why the hell do I care what you want? If you have a problem then beat me into submission because it's the only way I'll be what you want."

"Fuck, that's not what I meant so stop twisting my words Hinata! I don't know why you killed that man when I know you didn't want to and I don't know why you made everyone think you don't remember or care about your past when every one of those faces of the ones you've killed haunt your vision. Hinata why can't you let go of your past?"

"You and every one else in this place has forgotten so easily what I am then it's your own doom. I am what I am and the girl needs to realize how much danger she's in with the company she keeps and the one she idolizes."

He growled at me before he punched the door near my head and then disappeared in a tunnel of sand leaving the door way covered with it. I sigh before I crawl into bed and try to forget tonight's events.
