Rikka: Chapter 2: Blacklings

♥♥♥♥♥

"Ok so packing and walking straight out wasn't a good idea," Sakura said under her breath while holding the door closed,

she had done the stupidest thing ever, she had forgotten that Aoba had gone out to find food for everyone, every time someone opens the hatch door a Shisou gets in, sadly about five of them wiggled their way in, Sakura was now cornered and didn't know how to get out of the hatch, she would have to fight them, but what made her stomach churn was the sounds of woman and children's pleas for survival, the Shisou were horrible creatures that if they got to you they would tear you apart first starting with the innards then your flesh would fall apart.

Just thinking about that time made Sakura weak kneed, she had fallen to the ground in hopes to get the horrible images of her first patient that died out of her mind.

♥Flashback♥

It was the most sickening thing she had ever seen, the Shisou had been inside of him, she worked as hard as she could but as she searched for the area where he was injured most, his intestines had been devoured which meant he had no hope to live, his left kidney was now torn apart, now on his left arm the flesh started to deteriorate just like acid.

Luckily Aoba, which was now her closest friend and partner, had taken her away from the room and gotten rid of the body.

♥End Flashback♥

She finally gained her composure back and held onto the ice cold handle, she opened the door kunai at her side.

It made her gag, she looked at five people two woman three children, their flesh was deteriorating, one woman's cheek was free of skin, Sakura looked away and started to run over to the hatch where Aoba had left it open, she knew this was bad since now she knew Aoba was in danger, she climbed the stairs seeing next to her a man with a deteriorated arm to the point of seeing bone, she looked away trying not to throw up.

She lost her grip on the bar and started to fall back into the hatch when she felt a hand grab her wrist, she looked up as she dangled in the air, and she smiled and started to cry as she saw Aoba smiling back at her.

"Hey kid, you ok?" he said in a humorous way,

"Yeah I'm going to be scarred for life with deteriorating flesh images, but other than that I'm fine," she said trying not to gag again,

"I know what you mean, seems those damn blacklings are getting stronger every day," Aoba commented.

Sakura giggled as she loved it when he called them blacklings, it always made her happy, the creatures were basically shadows that could blend into other shadows and into the ground and can go inside of your body, and well eat you alive, "Yeah well if you don't mind I would love to stop dangling in the air," she said as she smiled, "Oh yeah better give you ground huh? Well back to the subject at hand, looks like we have to stay out of this hatch which has obviously been destroyed and contaminated-" Sakura cut in at that point and held a finger up to Aoba, "Thanks to you and your wanting better food," Aoba scratched his head which made Sakura remember about Kakashi-sensei even more, "Yeah I know I'm sorry but they were beating down the door either way, they were coming in either way," Aoba said while holding her finger, "Aoba we need to get going now," Sakura said in a worried voice,

"Yeah I know, we need to go to this little-"Sakura moved her finger out of his grasp and held onto his wrist while running into an alleyway, "No I mean that three Shisou were just behind us and we need to go now!" Aoba was struck dumb at that point, "Damn blacklings are pretty quiet, looks like they gained stealth too!" he said trying to calm down an angry kunoichi, "Right now isn't the time to mess around Aoba, we now have no place to protect us and we have no communication with the other hatches!"

Sakura yelled while ducking into a broken window and landing in the used to be hospital with Aoba now beside her.

"Looks like we might get more images to scar us cotton ball," Aoba said pointing at the many beds with decaying corpses occupying them, Sakura gagged as she hit Aoba for not only pointing out those horrible corpses, but for calling her cotton ball, he had always made nicknames for his friends and enemies, (Obviously) he always called her cotton ball because of her hair, it would have been cotton candy he said to her one day, but he decided cotton ball sounded better, she ran to the door, but to her surprise was pulled back by Aoba just in time before a Shisou almost slit her throat, Aoba laid her down on the marble floor and went into action, the Shisou grew a knife like arm and slashed at Aoba, he jumped back and summoned his crow spell to make things dark enough for the two to escape, Aoba picked Sakura up and ran out into the dark halls of the hospital desperately trying to find an area to hide from the blacklings, "Hey cotton ball that was pretty close," Aoba commented as he latched a door closed and put Sakura on the table next to the sink,

"I know, great job sunshine!" they both laughed at her comment, Sakura had decided to make a nickname for him and found one for his shades that he always wore, he hated it but couldn't help but laugh, after all, they were almost devoured by a Shisou.

"So Sakura," Aoba said in a serious voice, "Looks like we have to try and find another hatch, if we don't were going to be Shisou meat for sure," Sakura nodded, "I know and if I don't start being an actual kunochi soon I'm dead for sure, I'm worse than I used to be," Aoba patted her on the head, "Kid your not useless, hell look at your medical skills, I may not have been ordered to protect you, but your one of the most important people in Konoha, lat alone the world."

Sakura cried from there, she knew that he was protecting her because she was important to him; they had been like father and daughter.

"Cotton ball come on lets try to find some place to rest, then we can search for another hatch.

♥♥♥

"I thought you said you knew where you were going Deidara!" Kisame yelled, "Well this place is a dump, not easy to maneuver around, I have a map of when this place wasn't a black dot on the map…yeah" Deidara said while looking over his shoulder, and seeing a hatch with the number 4 on it and dead corpse laying on the ground around the opening with a look of terror that made you feel lucky to be alive and healthy, "Damn those Shisou must do a lot of damage, looks like we can count hatch 4 out of inspection…yeah." Deidara said while looking at Kisame,

"Well we know hatch's 4 and 5 are dead ones, now we only have 6, and 10, to take care of," Kisame said while looking at a sign ahead with only a few words to be made out, he could only see the letters: p-I-t-a-l, he looked at Deidara and nodded.

♥♥♥

Shikamaru and the rest of the team gasped as they saw what had happened to their hatch, "Oh my god, Aoba, and Sa-," Inos mouth was covered by Shikamarus hand, "Inimo, shut it you know we aren't supposed to talk about you know who," Shikamaru looked at Naruto and Sasuke who were eyeing him,

"Shikamaru, why did you just call Ino, Inimo?" Naruto asked in curiosity,

"It's a name he calls me sometimes, I call him Shimaru sometimes," Inimo said in a hesitant voice,

Neji and his team had joined them not to long ago while searching for food for hatch 10, Neji activated his Byakuugan and gasped, he turned to everyone but then was clouded by a dark fog surrounding everyone.

He felt as though someone tried to take hold of him his head was aching,

before he went into total darkness he heard Ten-ten scream his name, he looked over and saw them as they darted away, Lee holding her back and running back to the hatch, he looked up and Shimaru and Inimo, he was lifted up by a person he recognized, it had been Chouji, his mind didn't have much longer till he was unconscious, he heard Shimaru say something to Chouji, he could only make out a few words, "Chinji, go Anuko," Neji felt himself hit the hard cement as Inimo hovered over him she whispered words to him, "It's ok Neji you wont feel a thing." Inimo chuckled.
