'Tsk, she's moving again.'

I couldn't help but get angry, I was so close to finding her. Ohh, my mistake, I found her. I dashed through the wood, after many hours of running there she was….with humans, solders. FUCK! Where there are solders there should be hunters too, what are they doing! She has no experience they could easily take her down. It doesn't matter, I will shoot anyway. My eyes stuck on her shoulder, I don't wish to kill her, just to scare her, to make her run so I can catch her and lock her up, seal her powers, keep her for myself, nothing bad…right?

I waited for the right moment and shoot, my arrow was going to miss her shoulder…ugh I haven't missed in months and my bad aim had to come back now didn't it, anyway the arrow should at least scratch her cheek, this will have to do for the time being, I know where she's going now. The Capital.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

On the way to the Capital Sakura insisted that I share a horse with her, therefore I was away from Naruto which was actually good I'm grateful to this girl , I got what I wanted from Naruto, now I have to stay away as much as I can.

"So Hinata, how come you wanted to leave Nagashi ? Wasn't your family there, friends ?"

"…Not really, my family died a while ago…and I lived there only for the past couple days I was heading to the Capital as well, it was just my luck you came and took me with you, I am very thankful for that Sakura-san."

"…No problem."

Before leaving with a couple hours a drunken Naruto came all of a sudden to ask me to take this….girl with us. At the beginning I didn't get it, then I saw her. Wide lavender eyes, dark hair it almost seems like the night sky with all the starts is down her back, small figure, petite arms, long and slim legs, slender neck and a wonderful feminine face. She was perfection. Then she started to say the things she can do, not only is she the perfect wife, she can cook, and has some nurse knowledge, but she is an erudite as well, she can read and write! Where did he find her…? There was no way I could have said no. Somehow…I don't regret it, she's not just really feminine but she's polite as well. I kind of like her, I might keep her around to help me in my laboratory.

The wind was pretty fast and it was making a lot of noise, maybe this was one of the reasons I didn't hear anything suspicious, not until the girl behind me started to scream in agony. I looked back to see red blood dripping from her shoulder…an arrow was stuck there. I got off the horse to help her. Probably the strong wind took it off its course. I saw Naruto and Sasuke coming our way.

"What happened ?"

"…the wind redirected an arrow, it hit her, good thing it's only her shoulder and nothing that could have created serious damage. "

"ugh…where is the arrow ?"

"…I took it out and dropped it, why does it matter ?"

" Did you look at it ?"

"No Naruto! She's hurt, there is no time for this!"

"…right, sorry."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

He shot me, Gaara did it I could always tell his arrows apart from the others, his arrows are very sharp ,it feels like he makes them really thin so it goes dipper and it hurts more, he shot me in front of everyone. Sakura didn't seem to understand, Naruto proved to be so much wiser not drunk…and this person was looking at me with black eyes, like a dark void with no end. I couldn't hold his gaze and let my head down just to notice a sign on his leg, Uchiha. I couldn't help but smile. He wasn't a hunter, he was a fighter of justice, one of the strongest person but in a weak position, he would make a perfect target. My smile faded soon when another arrow priced through my back, the inhuman scream I left out was the last thing I heard.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I woke up in an unknown room, probably in the capital, an attend to move reminded me of the arrow that priced my back. If Naruto didn't know that I was a soul eater before he sure does now. Yet he was dumb enough to leave me in this room, alone, I don't sense anyone inside. I tried to move despite the pain in my back, even so I couldn't my legs and arms refused to move.

"It's not worth trying"

A voice broke the silence, I looked up and was absorbed in endless black eyes, Uchiha. He came closer and took off the sheet, only to find myself tied, cuffed and on my right wrist a small silver bracelet, the reason I couldn't sense him, they sealed my powers away.

"tsk…What's the meaning of this ? "

"… They wanted to kill you ,Narut insisted to keep you alive through. Of course they locked you up, tied, cuffed and sealed you, but that was just something to expect. "

"If I told you I'm not…whatever they think I am, would you believe me ? "

"No"

"I see… Why would they put you to watch me? It's such a shame. Wasting such a powerful person for such a trivial matter, what are they thinking ? "

I looked at him to see if he was buying anything I said, cold eyes watched me and my every movement.

"you don't even know me, how come you're so sure I am strong? "

He was rational, more than the pink haired medic or the blond hunter. It would be hard to fool him, especially without my powers.

"I know you are strong, you survived a war and….you're from a highly classed family, aren't you Uchiha-san ? "

"…how'd you know ? "

"ehh…by chance I saw your tattoo fan. You're wasting such a great potential in easy tasks anyone could complete, they must be joking"

" I wanted to be a hunter as well"

" but you're not allowed to, if you did become one anyway, they would have registered you as a run-away. "

"yes"

"in the past the hunters were just as...mistreated, frightening as the monsters they tracked. Uchiha is a honorable family, yet their thrown back mentality will cost them big time. Even if being a hunter nowadays is something very common and respectful they say they can't, what would their passed ones think ? "

"I hate it when people know too much about things they aren't supposed, like this. Let's say you're not…a creature, then know do you know all of this ? "

"Before my I left I was part of a high family as well, my mother and was killed and my father never seemed to care so I left. "

I sighed and looked at his emotionless face, he was looking at a window I didn't even notice till now. He would be the death of me. I closed my eyes only to see the real problem, the real person whose fault is this, red hair, teal eyes, face showing nothing but pain, Gaara.

"why do people that you care for the most hurt you ? "

I didn't realized I said that out loud until I got a response

"because we let them, we trust them and let our walls down when they are around, that's why a normal hit does so much more damage than usually…"

Heh…I had a few choices now, try to escape and probably fail and die, listen to him and go insane, waste a lot of time in him, trying to make him help me get out…none was really… convenient for me. He would be the death of me.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It didn't really work out as I wanted, they got her, I know where she is but I have to go past many obstacles to get to her now. The Capital is a busy place, people shouting everywhere, moving, yet I feel dead alone.

"But Naruto! How long do you intend to keep her around, she's a monster! You said it yourself! "

"Shh, not so loud Sakura-chan. I just feel like there is a reason to keep her alive. "

"ugh!"

They were planning to kill her…I should have known better. There was no other way, I had to create a distraction….and I have the perfect idea. I ran down the street and into a tree. I still had the pink haired woman in my sight. Perfect. I took my arrow out, aim and….shoot. The arrow went perfectly through people and up to the woman right in her arm. A scream made people turn their eyes towards the source of the scandal.

"A hunter arrow…just like the one that hit Hinata."

"…w-what are you waiting for take it out! "

"no, it will hurt more, come with me"

I watched as the man took the woman away, the scandal wasn't big, I knew it wouldn't be. But now he's doubting that Hinata is a soul eater, he might even set her free, push her out of her hideout right into the aim of my arrow. Things finally, after a long time, started to look brighter for me.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This hunter was a joke, he wasn't even targeting monsters or his aim is horrible, this might be a mistake actually. He hurt Sakura for no reason, Hinata might just be a normal girl with bad luck.

"Tsk"

"…w-what ?"

"The arrow, it's identical to the one that hit Hinata"

"so..? aren't they all the same ?"

"no, this ones are strangely done, they are so thin almost in an attend to price the body on a part and get out the other…they are awfully more painful, faster and more accurate. This hunter knows what he's doing."

"…What are you talking about! He hit me ! I am not a monster!"

"I know that…so does he"

"t-then?"

"He just messes around…Ugh, Hinata might actually not even be a monster, this is a nightmate!"

"…can't you check if she is ?"

"I can't, not now. If she really was she's sealed so I would feel nothing and if I break the seal and she is a monster, she'll get away."

"…what are we going to do ?"

"first of all, get that arrow out of your arm, it starts to get blue."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

She's not quite like I imagined a monster to be, I don't even know what monster she is…demon ? if I were a hunter I'm sure I would know.. if I were …

"Sasuke!

'Ugh…the dobe again.'

"what ?"

"how is HInata doing ?"

"well…she's not up so I don't know, you tell me. She seems perfectly fine to me"

"….stop the sarcasm it's important, we might have made a mistake"

"…wait I'll open the door, are you alone ?"

"yea…"

'Mistake ? what mistake ? ugh this is bullshit' I opened the door just to see a very pale Naruto.

"what mistake ?"

"..she might just be a normal person"

"…what ? but she's been freaking shot! Twice!"

"…I think, the first one was meant for Sakura, but it missed so instead when he saw that he just hit her again, today in the town Sakura was hit by an arrow, exact same one.

"even so, don't you think they checked before locking her up ?"

"they might have checked, but might have not as well, I want to break her seal and see for myself"

"ugh very well, I'll lock up….just in case"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

So Gaara wants to help me get out…what is he thinking ? he's the reason why I am here in the first place. I could hear Naruto slowly moving closer, even without my powers it is so easy to tell Naruto from Uchiha, he's so bright even with my eyes closed it hurts, perfection while 'Sasuke', he's dark, mysterious and dangerous, well at least that is the feeling I have around him. Naruto took out a small silver knife and cut the bracelet while saying a few words.

Freedom, I could get up and just take both of their souls, hearts, it would be so easy, yet I chosen to mask my powers, I knew Naruto would set me free if he didn't feel anything.

"tsk…she's normal. Wait here, I'll go talk to them."

Everything will go just as I planned. I felt my senses come back and this...person, Uchiha made me feel so strange…secure. His scent was so wonderful…how didn't I feel it before. He was coming closer and with each step his smell was stronger. I felt so safe…which was so strange.

See you next time!
