I haven't told you about Sironar, have I? He's my cousin, an energetic one too! Back then, when everyone was alive, he was the most cheerful and recognizable, at least, in my opinion. He was always confident and determined in his academic trainings, no matter how harsh or difficult they may be. And, always with a smirk on his face and a gimmick up his sleeve, but I guess that's natural for a thief.
When we were young, he always pulled some sort of prank on me, I guess he likes for me to chase him, right? Well, the same applies here, but, only he didn't pull off a prank, he survived. But I suppose I'm his guardian now, so I have to reassure his safety, and boy, he was FAST, for a ninja one year younger than me! I was a bit tired, it was like a maze he was leading me through, a maze of the forest, I stopped at a nearby tree, but, still with my eye on him. I was a bit too exhausted, and yet, he didn't even break a sweat! Just for a few seconds I sat on the ground, laying against the tree, but until I heard something.. Something that sounded like a thump.
"Ne--!" I heard, sounded like Sironar, but... He's screaming, and he didn't have time to finish pronouncing my name. That... Wait, this is not right, he's probably in danger, I have to help him! I immediately followed the direction the voice came from.
". . ."
"Dey-Deyanira! L-Let him go!" I could not believe my eyes... My own sister... Holding a kunai on Sironar's neck, and her other hand covering his mouth.. This isn't happening, this must be some sort of genjutsu!
"D-Don't kill him! N-Not him!" She's trying to test my emotions or something? My own sister, why him? Why?
". . ."
She stayed at the same position... W-Wait! Calm down Nen, calm down, just, just think of something.
". . ."
Wait, Plyden! I looked away, hesitantly, and quickly activated Plyden and returned to look at her, now I'll know what she'll do!
"Clever of you, Nen." She quietly murmured.
"Siren here is not as worthless as you." She chuckled softly.
"Why don't.. Why don't we have some fun?" I stood there, in shock, unable to react... But, something came to my senses. Plyden showed me something; Sironar just, passing out, and, and Deyanira charging at me.
Just exactly that too! She released Sironar from her clutch and he just, fell, lifelessly... But, he's alive, I know it. And Deyanira charged at me, throwing her kunai toward my direction! Just as I predicted, too...
But, I came to my senses, and I quickly unsheathed my Huqe Sword and positioned it exactly so that the blade would block the kunai from piercing me. And so it reflected; and gravity pulled it down to the ground. It isn't over yet, she's just a yard away, with another kunai gripped in her hand! I predicted every move of hers, attempted to block as long as I can. She's fierce some, swift, and agile, I didn't even find an opening to counter-attack!
I jumped back, and she did too, her fighting style.. It's... It's unique, I can't swing my katana as fast as she swiftly swings her kunai! Just as she sprinted toward me, I saw Plyden in her eyes! I quickly performed Lunar Clone just before she can strike again! A few milliseconds later my clone jumped down from the sky ready to slice Deyanira in half! But, unexpectedly, she took the kunai in her off-dominant hand and reacted to her instincts, and pierced my clone! My clone vanished instantly.
What could I possibly do, there's no opportunity to attack her, and she's rapid as any powerful shinobi! My Plyden worn out, and my eyes returned to normal, NO! Not now, not when I need it! I could no longer predict her movements and her hits. I stepped back, in exhaustion, but she took that chance and went for my legs.
"Shhhhii--!" I growled, the pain! ... Dammit! T-Two kunai a-at my upper-legs! Argh!
...
...
...
S-She covered my mouth so no one could hear my groans and tears of help and stepped behind me; kunai touching my neck this time.
I-I'm done for...
...
...
T-This is i-it... She's going to kill me, j-just as she m-murdered our c-clan...
...
...
Tears s-started rolling down my face, how p-painful it is to die, i-in battle. W-With your own s-sister...
