Konan pulled on some clothes Pein gave her. It was a blue t-shirt with black jeans.-Pein wouldn't let her wear her regular clothes because the blood wouldn't come out- She wore her hair down this time. Pein wore a white loose t-shirt, with a black leather jacket, his pants were ordinary, with a hole in the jeans. He put on sunglasses to cover his eyes, and wore a cowboy hat to cover his mess of orange hair. He didn't bother pulling out his piercings.

"Ready?" He asked, looking at Konan, immediately causing him to blush from what happened this morning.

"Yeah." Konan replied.

Pein took Konan into a very expensive shop, that thrilled Konan with its fashionable clothing. "Here." Pein gave Konan alot of money. "I'll be back. Dont leave this store, Kay?"

Konan thought for a moment. "O-okay."

Pein looked at her for a moment, wanting to give her something for goodbye, he went with a hug and quickly left, leaving Konan standing there daffled.

He turned a corner and walked into the alleyway, ignoring all the drunken bums. He went to the back of the store which had a large window that showed inside of the store. A man was peering into the store, staring straight at, you guessed it, Konan. Pein clenched his fists. "I really hate guys like you." He said, causing the man to turn to him.

Pein immediately pushed him into the opposing wall, and held the man up by his neck. The man squirmed, but Pein tightened his grip, staring at him through his sunglasses.

Konan turned when she head a bone-chilling scream, she saw Pein killing that man. Nobody else paid any mind to it, Odd Konan thought.

She raced into the same direction that Pein had, and ignored the catcalls and whistles. She reached Pein soon.

He hadn't known she'd arrived, Pein let go of his grip around the man's neck, and he dropped to the ground, lifeless. "That'll show him." He said, squatting down next to the man.

"See ya' in hell." Then he stood up and slightly kicked him, smirking at his 'deed'. Konan gasped and he turned toward her. "K-konan...W-when did you get here?" He asked.

Konan took a step back. "P-pein, Im done shopping...I wanna go home..." She said, her voice with the obvious hint of fear in it.

"Please, Konan. I-Im sorry." He said. She turned, but Pein grabbed her wrist and pulled her close. "Im sorry."

"Dorry doesn't stop you from killing someone." She said, struggling to release his grip. "Konan. He was looking at you." He said, his grip still held.

"Well, why did you kill him?" She asked. "B-because...Im just, really protective of women and children. R-remember that day in the subway. I d-didn't want that girl to die, or get hurt. So I sent her mother and her into the subway."

Konan nodded. Pein hugged her, and she cried into his chest. One hand was held at her waist, and the other was on the back of her head. His cheek was rested on the top of her head. He didn't know why, but he kissed the top of Konan's head. "I'm sorry." He mumbled.
