Everyone has a secret or two. Some sadder. Some darker. Some embarrassing. But mine are none of those. They are just secrets. Little alone Rin has her back to the wall of people sneering and whispering around her. Her cut, short hair lightly blowing in the wind. Fists clench, teeth gritted. My secrets aren't really secrets. Don't misunderstand. I HATE short hair.

Sakura laid on the ground, bruised, barely clinging onto consciousness. She looks at the slightly bruised Kyo give the finishing blow to Tenten, who had weapons stuck all over her body. She struggled to look at the guys, who were breathing hard, bruised and hurt.

They both struggle to stay up as Rin had scratches and bruises all over her but the cuts soon close up. Sending a groan in Neji's throat, while Sasuke glared at her. She was strong. Her tentacle like darkness sinks into their skin, shooting pain through them. They didn't scream but gritted their teeth. They didn't scream, they couldn't. With the little dignity they had, they clasped their mouths shut. Neji fell to the floor as a series of kunai pierces him from the back, his blind spot exposed. Neji fell to the floor with half closed eyes.

Sasuke grits his teeth as he slides away from the duo. He was alone. His hand charges up with his lightening orb in his hand, glowing his face in blue. Kyo smirks, "Rin. Guess this is one is yours." Sasuke runs up to Rin, Rin also had an orb in her hand.

Wind? Sasuke's eyes widen a bit as their elements clash, sending Rin and Sasuke back. Rin digs her feet to the floor while Sasuke slides next to Sakura, who sees his eyes close. "Oh." Kyo walks to Sakura, looking down at her. "Lookie here hime-sama! Seems like the medical ninja is still awake!" Rin walks over to Sakura, giving her a stone cold stare.

"W-why? N-naruto a-and e-everyone t-trusted y-you!" Her anger blazing in her blurry eyes. Rin looks around and gives a hate filled glare to her before kicking her, full-force, in the face. Sakura had blacked out with that blow. Kyo looks calculatingly at Rin, curiosity getting the better of him.

"Why'd you go easy on them?"

"I didn't."

"Ya you did." Rin glares at him.

"How would YOU know huh?"

"'Cause I'm always watching you." Always. Kyo answers smoothly, he was hiding something.

"I didn't go easy on them. Master doesn't need them dead yet. We need to do the mission right. Give me a kunai." Kyo hands her a kunai, she bends down to Sakura and begins to carve and dig in her forehead, writing something. "We'll send them a message."

Kyo watched over Rin quietly, doubt residing in his gut. Are you really sure you can go through with this mission?

Shikamaru walks around, his thinking expression doubled. He comes across a slightly open door. He looks to the side then walks in, seeing the dead bird slowly rotting. His eyes widen a bit at the sight, he examines it closer then his eyes sharpen.

"S-she had a blue bird with her!" Naruto yelled, anxious to find Rin. His words were fast and flustered as he continued on to tell the rest of Rin's unusual actions.

"I don't like this…" He sighs, muttering, "Troublesome." He lifts the cage and walks out, heading toward the others. Not too after the arrival of the badly injured team that was sent after her. They looked terrible. But what got his attention was the letters on their body parts. He rushes to them, glancing from their written bodies and the dead bird. "I REALLY don't like this." And I think the others won't either.

Rin stumbles a bit, her vision getting blurry. As she falls forward, Kyo catches her with one arm around her waist. He grits his teeth and puts Rin upright. His arm had a cut or two but it was inside that hurt him. They aren't that bad. The boy with the long hair was a tough one, the other boy with Sharingan. The girls were just pathetic compared to my Hime-sama. "You ok?" She probably burned out all her chakra.

"Ya, just need some food." Kyo smiles a bit then lays her gently against a tree.

"I'll be back." Kyo rushes off, his eyes serious as he knew how she looked as soon as his back turned. She had a blank expression with tears streaming down her face. Her insides were aching, the darkness consumed her. Ate at her. Laughed at her. She hated using it but she had no choice. She can't be the smiling, stubborn, laughing, hurt, betrayed, ignored little girl she was before. She's running away from herself. The only thing that causes you to be imperfect is your feelings and mindset…the only thing that I can't forgive you for is letting yourself rot in your own sorrows…and the only thing I wish you would do is…notice and love me.

The coding team wasn't needed to see the message on their bodies. It started at Sakura's forehead, then to Sasuke's face, Neji's arms, and stops at Tenten's legs. Everyone looked at their mangled bodies with sad expressions, reading the clear message "Watch out. We are. Coming for. You next." Each person had their two words in big size, blood covering their bodies.Tsunade and the others rushed to them, trying their best to help them. Shikamaru looked around at his friends.

Naruto watches over his teammates with his hair covering his eyes. Hinata watching Naruto sadly. Lee watching over his teammates lifelessly. Ino, Chouji, and Temari walking to him. Seina running her hand through her hair, standing next to Hinata. All the sensei's lining next to each other against the wall, looking over their distressed students. The Hokage walking around, watching everyone closely. Gaara sat in the corner, his hands together, eyes closed. Shikamaru closed his eyes then spoke up, "I found another message." Everyone's stares aim at him now, everyone's eyes having a different expression at the sight of the dead bird.

The Hokage's eyes fill with pain and hurt but he closes it. "She has made her choice." Naruto's eyes fill with anger.

"She isn't evil! We just need to find her and try to-!" Naruto started but Ino interrupted.

"Open your eyes Naruto! She made you guys trust her and then betrayed you! She attacked our friends! Your teammates! She's our enemy!" Ino yelled, anger blazing in her eyes.

"No! She isn't like that!" Hinata yelled, her eyes serious and unwavering. This isn't the Hinata they know. "If she was evil could she have such a smile?" She screamed her lungs out, her eyes closed in anger, she breathes heavily, her head down.

"I don't know her much…but I know she isn't evil." Chouji commented, remembering Rin and him eating dinner together with eagerness.

"I only met her once...but i felt like…she had respect for me." Lee commented.

"She's not evil. We all should know that…but she is challenging us. For the sake of the village's protection…we must stop her at all costs." The Hokage spoke wisely, despite his own pain, examining everyone's expressions. "I know she isn't evil! Believe in her. If not, then go out and stop her yourselves!" Everyone agreed in their own way. In frustration, in anger, in sadness. They all agreed. Rin please don't make the same mistake as your mother. Come back to us. Please. Please…

"You called master?" the same shadow as before bowed humbly.

"Yes. I want you to send the twins out." The shadow looked puzzled.

"Sora and Riku master?" The shadow's voice was confused and curious.

"Yes."

"If I may intrude, why my Ouja-sama?" One of the shadow's eyes shined a no-pupil bright orange, the other a no-pupil bright yellow, his fiery burning red hair falling cleanly over his eyes. A scar running down his yellow eye from the top of his head till his chin.

"They will be needed, Aden. That place must have powerful ninjas, even if they're kids. They are probably older than Rin in age. The top ninjas must be stopped. To fulfill the destruction of the Leaf village." The face comes to view, one eye is a red Mangekyō Sharingan while the other is a light purple Rinnegan. His face covered in bandages, his alluring spiky jet black hair going in all directions, his wicked and scary eyes. Meet the head of the corrupted village. Bow down to him! Our precious Ouja-sama!
