Question! Is Lee the Green beast, Blue beast or Azure beast of konoha? (I don't remember, and I'm too lazy to check...)
I AM SO VERY SORRY!
A special thanks to all my readers and reviewers! You rock!

My Trust in You
Chapter Twelve- Nice to meet you
Chikako twirled a leaf between her fingers slowly. She sighed quietly and looked up at the setting sun.
'…Forgive me if you can,' she thought sadly.
"Chikako, it's time to head back"
Chikako got up slowly and followed her subordinate in silence. She let go of the small leaf and allowed it to hit the ground in silence.
"Akemi-san-!"
Akemi turned her head and smiled faintly as she noticed someone walking towards her.
"Keiko-San, how are you?"
Keiko grinned slightly.
"I'm fine, thank you. Yourself?"
Akemi shrugged.
"I'm alright, I guess. I just got back from another mission," Akemi replied, pointing to her dirty clothes and showing her hands which had dry blood on them.
"I see… Hey, if you're not busy at the moment, do you want to get a bite to eat?"
Akemi smiled again and nodded.
"Sure," she said as they turned towards the Ichikira ramen stand.
Keiko and Akemi took a seat on the stools and watched their food getting ready.
Lee sighed slightly and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He glanced over at the ramen stand and smiled as he noticed a familiar face.
"Akemi-San!" Lee said happily as he walked over to the chatting jounins. Akemi raised her head and grinned.
"Lee-San, how are you?"
"I'm fine, thanks- you?"
"I'm fine," Akemi began. "Ah, Lee-San, this is Nakashima Keiko." Akemi replied, motioning to Keiko, who looked at Lee curiously.
Keiko got up from her seat and blushed lightly as she extended her hand to Lee.
Lee's mouth was slightly opened for a few moments before realizing that Keiko was looking at him.
"H- Hi, I'm Rock Lee- Konoha's very own-,"
"Green beast," Lee and Keiko ended in unison.
Lee grinned sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck.
"Right!" he said, continuing to grin.
Akemi looked at Keiko to Lee, then back to Keiko. She raised her eyebrow slightly and grinned.
"Lee-San, why don't you join us?"
Lee blinked and smiled, showing his white teeth.
"Sure," he replied.
Lee and Keiko took their seats on either side of Akemi and they all began chatting.
"Mommy-!"
A young girl ran through the streets, holding back tears. She sighed and stopped in front of her house, turning the doorknob quickly.
She walked inside and took off her shoes, locking the door behind her.
"Mommy-! Mommy, I'm home!"
After hearing no response, she turned on the lights and looked around curiously.
"Mommy…? Mommy, where are you?" she called out as loud as she could.
A scream emerged from a room upstairs. The young looked at the door on the top floor. She began running up the stairs quickly.
"Mommy, what's wrong!"
"Aya, run away! Get away, go get help!"
The young girl, Aya, continued to run up the stairs. She stopped in front of her mother's bedroom and heard her mother's muffled voice from inside.
"Get away from me! Leave, please!"
Another scream was heard from inside, followed by silence.
Aya tried to turn the doorknob to her mother's room but found it locked.
"Mommy, what's going on! Mommy- open the door, please!"
The doorknob turned slowly. Aya stepped back and looked up to see a shadowed figure.
"W- Who are you? Where's my mother?"
The shadowed figure smiled menacingly and stepped forward.
Aya turned and ran down the stairs quickly. The shadowed figure jumped down and landed in front of her, blocking her way of exiting. She held up her hands in front of her.
"P- Please leave…Please-," Aya was cut off as the shadowed figure took out a kunai knife. He reached forward quickly and wrapped his hand around Aya's neck, making his grip tighter.
Aya's face changed from its normal pale color to a slight hue of blue. The shadowed figure held up his kunai and drove it through the left of her chest. Aya's eyes rolled back as he dropped her to the ground.
He licked the blood from the kunai away and pocketed it as he walked through the front door.
Chikako jumped down from the roof of the house and sent a kick to the shadowed figure. He stumbled back slightly as glared at her.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Chikako asked angrily. "We have a mission, the last thing we need is for you to draw more attention to us!"
The shadowed figure shrugged.
"I have my hobbies and you have yours," he muttered.
Chikako growled and punched his nose. He stumbled back again and held his nose. He glared at her, knowing that he wasn't allowed to hit her back.
"You're fucking sick….You're sick! How could you kill-?"
He held up his hand.
"You've killed before… Why are you so mad now?" he asked calmly.
Chikako growled angrily.
"Shut the Hell up… Go back; get the Hell away from here…Now-! Go," Chikako shouted angrily.
The shadowed figure shrugged and walked away slowly, glancing at Chikako hungrily.
'You-… you will be my next target…' he thought darkly.
Chikako walked inside the house slowly and looked down at Aya while the blood poured out of her body. Chikako looked away and covered her face with a mask. She ran up the stairs quickly and walked to Aya's mother's room. She turned the doorknob and quickly walked in to see Aya's mother tied up in the corner of her room with her mouth taped. Chikako sighed inwardly and she took off the tape from the mother's mouth.
"Who are you? W- Where's Aya!"
Chikako untied the mother and allowed her to run down the stairs.
Aya's mother screamed and held Aya close to her. Aya's mother began begging Aya to speak to her. Chikako walked down the stairs slowly and dropped down to her knees beside the hysterical woman.
"I-… It's too late," Chikako said quietly. "I-….I'm sorry, I can't save her now…" Chikako got up slowly and walked out the door, leaving quickly.
Aya's mother began sobbing.
"Aya…Please…!"
She held Aya closer, and continued sobbing as people came to the front door. They began talking and calling for help.
Chikako looked down from her spot on the tree branch and sighed. She got out a kunai knife and held it against her arm. She took in a deep breath and cut her arm deeply. Chikako looked at the blood oozing out, her eyes distant.
'How many people… have I left to die now…?'
Ok- chapter five is done! You've learned a bit more about the enemy (I think). I'm putting my ideas in order so I don't get confused a lot and hopefully my other updates will be quicker too!
Anyways, thank you for reading and review please!
