Chapter 4: 12 Years Later…
Part 1: Sasuke's back!
"Glad to see that you've decided to come back," a blond-haired, blue-eyed ninja with a loud personality said. "And Sakura, I told you I would bring him back. It was a promise of a lifetime!"
"Thanks, Naruto," Sakura said. She wasn't as overjoyed as she had thought she would be. Sasuke is going back to Konoha, which means that her childhood crush is back. Of course, Sakura is older now, and will not fling herself in Sasuke's arms every time they meet; she saw the folly of her past ways. Perhaps, her annoying attitude only strengthened Sasuke's irritation with Konoha, and had helped him decide to go to Orochimaru.
"Aren't you happy to see Sasuke?"
"Of course," Sakura said, and put on a smile. However, inside of her, she still has doubts about her happiness. It seems that three and a half years without Sasuke made an impact on her, as though she enjoyed a security from a life without Sasuke. If she wasn't so happy about Sasuke…
"What will we do back home?" Sakura asked.
"What?" Naruto asked.
"Naruto, you idiot. Sakura is clearly asking about how I will not be accepted back in Konoha. Everybody will just think that I am a traitor, who nearly endangered the lives of seven people in my attempt to gain power. I may even be rejected from the village. Even Sakura rejects me."
"No! I don't… I don't reject you! I'm just a little…"
"Downcast since you can't decide if you should be happy, even though your spirits are clearly downcast," Sasuke replied, almost mirroring Sakura's exact thoughts.
"Don't worry, Sasuke," a man with white hair and a mask stated. The man's forehead protector, with the Konoha symbol on it, was covering his left eye. "Tenzo and I will talk with Tsunade."
"Kakashi, please don't call me Tenzo. We don't know who is listening, and you have to refer to me as Yamato." This man was about the same height as Kakashi, but with short spiky hair, and the sides of his face were covered by his forehead protector, also with the Konoha symbol.
"Tenzo, hehehe." Naruto said.
"Idiot! Don't make fun of other people's names! Look at your own, Mr. Whirlpool!"
"Sakura-chan!"
"Let's not spend too much time. Kakashi has to get back quickly before he collapses," Sasuke stated.
"Oi, I'm not that weak, and you still can't beat me Sasuke-kun."
"We'll see back at the village," Sasuke replied with a smile.
Despite what he stated to the contrary, Kakashi felt that Sasuke was right. He had used the Mangekyo too much, even though it was far less than what he had done to Deidara back when they were rescuing Gaara.
It was a fine morning, and Kakashi and Tenzo had just completed their missions. They were about to call a break when they were summoned to Tsunade's office. Tsunade appeared very angry.
"That Naruto! I swear I'm going to kill him when he comes back. Right after this mess with Hidan and Kakazu, along with Asuma's funeral, Naruto disappears! And not only him, but Sakura as well! All I found was a statement telling me that they are going to Rice Field country to get Sasuke back, and they brought Sai along too! Kakashi, Tenzo, you two are assigned the mission to bring Naruto, Sakura, and Sai back. Since you could meet with armed resistance, both against those three and any Sound ninjas, this mission will be an S-rank mission. Tenzo, you will go without ANBU attire, and your codename will be Yamato, as last time. Go, now!"
Tsunade had been extremely pissed. Not wanting to be in the way of Tsunade's brute strength, Kakashi and Tenzo had left quickly.
If Tsunade was pissed off when they left, she would have exploded if she saw what happened when Kakashi and Tenzo caught up with Naruto, Sakura, and Sai. Instead of bringing them in, Kakashi and Tenzo joined the three in their quest to get Sasuke back.
Apparently, Jiraiya had tracked Orochimaru down once again to the old abandoned Hidden Sound Village, and having gone there before, Naruto and Sakura knew the way. They also were able to avoid the traps that awaited them inside the mansion. It was too good a chance to miss, as they may never have another bout with Orochimaru without hundreds of ninjas in the fray.
In the fight that ensued, Sakura and Sai were fighting against Kabuto, Naruto was fighting Sasuke, while Kakashi and Tenzo fought Orochimaru. Despite her medical training with Tsunade, Sakura was still no match for Kabuto, who was quite surprised that Sakura attained Tsunade's strength. However, Kabuto had been able to disable Sakura, cutting off the Achilles tendons in both her legs, as well as deal decisively with the animals Sai summoned from his book.
Naruto and Sasuke had fought, and just like three years ago, they had launched themselves into a contest of Rasengan vs. Chidori, only more powerful than ever. Nobody knew, but when the two of them had fought the last time, they really didn't try to kill each other, as Naruto had stopped his Rasengan to scratch Sasuke's forehead protector, and Sasuke stopped his Chidori before it impacted with Naruto. This time though, they had gone their all.
Tenzo was able to trap Orochimaru with his Mokuton abilities, and Kakashi was able to teleport Orochimaru's arms away. Raikiri had missed Orochimaru by inches, but was able to deal enough damage to Orochimaru, who unleashed jutsu after jutsu, the result of 40 years of jutsu collecting.
However, the damage was felt when Orochimaru got too close to Sakura, who landed a critical hit on Orochimaru. But by that time, it was clear that the leaf ninjas were done. Orochimaru was critically injured, but Sasuke and Kabuto, though nearly depleted, could have easily killed the five leaf ninjas.
"Game over!" Orochimaru cried triumphantly in his coarse voice. "Kabuto, Sasuke! Kill them now!"
Naruto had closed his eyes. "I tried my hardest, Sakura." However, nothing happened.
"What are you doing!" Orochimaru cried desperately, realizing what Sasuke and Kabuto had in mind. "Kill them now!"
"Why?" Sasuke asked. "What have you ever done to earn my favor?"
"What have I done?" Orochimaru grinned evilly. "I gave you power. The power to destroy these people, your teammates, your sensei! You have become more powerful than what you would have been with them!"
"But they are not my target," Sasuke replied coolly. "My target is Itachi, and you have brought me no closer to killing him. Instead, you want me to kill the only people I ever considered my friends. I was a fool to believe I could defeat my brother when you cower like a snail at the mention of Itachi's name!" Sasuke spat.
"Kabuto. You must… help me."
"I must say you have poorly repaid my devotion to you. Look at you! You look pathetic! I am ashamed to work for you! You've done nothing but mistreat me, and treat my devotion with contempt. Yet now you ask me for help? You must have changed your mind with that of a rat!"
And so, when Orochimaru was weakest and needed help the most, Kabuto and Sasuke turned on him. Despite all the jutsus Orochimaru knew, he could not even raise his arms to defend himself from a simple slash.
Kabuto quickly healed both Sakura and Sai. He plans on becoming the next Otokage, and will treat his subjects better than Orochimaru. Sasuke decided to come back, only after Tenzo and Kakashi promised him that he will get stronger, and training under close supervision without malice is better than what he got from Orochimaru.
And now, the six of them were on their way back to Konoha. The initial exhilaration from the fight had disappeared, and a gloom settled when they realized the task they had to accomplish when they arrived.
"We'll manage, Sasuke," Naruto said. "Somehow."
--
Tsunade is at a loss for words. She didn't know if she should reprimand, congratulate, or act neutral. Here he is, after nearly four years, a slender boy with sleek black hair, wearing traditional Sound ninja attire, and the Sword of Kusanagi at his side.
On the one hand, everybody carried out insubordination; on the other hand, Sasuke was back, Orochimaru was dead, and the threat of another Sound attack is virtually gone.
"Just this once, just this once, I congratulate all five of you on a mission complete."
"What about me?" Sasuke asked. "Are you going to make me go away, or what?"
"Hmmm, good question. Personally, I believe that your old group of friends may accept you back readily, though they will understand that you were a traitor. The adults, however, will be tougher to deal with. Generally, the old are cantankerous and snobbish, and won't forget things that quickly, even if it is out of anybody's control." Tsunade said the last sentence with a scowl on her face.
Everybody knew what she was talking about. Despite all that Naruto has done, many people still call him the Demon Fox, the prankster, etc. behind his back. Hyuga Neji himself informed Tsunade that in one day, he heard the words "Demon Fox" no less than 77 times. Tsunade had been so angered as to actually demand the council to ban the words "demon" and "fox" from the village under pang of death. The scene she caused would have actually been funny if the situation wasn't so grave.
"Anyways, I will try to get you accepted back into the village. There shouldn't be too much trouble, as the village does not want the Uchiha clan to disappear and they should be thankful you have returned, unlike…"
Tsunade stopped short. Any mention of that name may cause Sasuke to revert back.
"…the…way…how…they used to treat others." Tsunade had saved herself at the last moment using Naruto, though Kakashi and Tenzo were able to catch Tsunade's slight pauses. All three adults breathed a sigh of relief, and Tsunade continued.
"I believe your old apartment is still unoccupied, and you can remain there. A few changes have happened in the 4 years you were gone, so I think a week will be enough for you to get used to everything here. Your friends have changed as much as you have."
"They are not my friends."
Once outside of Tsunade's office, Naruto and Sakura took the time to introduce Sasuke to the new village. Sasuke met his old "friends", though he didn't interact much back then, and he still doesn't. Teams 7, 8 10, and 12 gathered together, and even though everybody tried as hard as they can to act as though nothing happened, there was a hint of bitterness.
Sasuke didn't blame them. He would do the same if it was him.
Naruto and Sakura realized that some time would be needed. They then went on a tour of the village, as well as pay their respects to the tomb of Asuma. Sasuke was most surprised that Hidan and Kakazu were brought down by Shikamaru and Naruto.
"Infinity is only God's illusion," Sasuke whispered.
"No. Hidan's still alive. His head is buried under my family's forest. As long as we're around, we'll make sure he never comes out, nor finds his body."
"And Kakazu wasn't all that bad. My new Rasengan was able to destroy all the hearts he carried on his back. Besides," Naruto put his arms behind his head and stretched hard, "It was Kakashi who got the finishing blow."
Part 2: The Hunt
At a clearing in River Country
"Well, well, well, our meetings are becoming quite frequent aren't they? As you all may know, Orochimaru has been killed, and his former subordinate Kabuto has taken over as leader of the Hidden Sound village. Apparently taking over a body as powerful as Kabuto's isn't very effective. Anyways, Sasori had told us that Kabuto had a block on him, but given that a fight had taken place when the Kyubi and Shodai's legacy met him, there is no reason to believe that Kabuto will be loyal to us. Moreover, Orochimaru has lost the sharingan back to Konoha."
"All that is left is the Kyubi," Zetsu said excitedly.
--
It happened a couple months ago. A girl about 20 years old had been dragged into the room. She was the last Jinchuriki Akatsuki could get its hands on. She was wearing the headband of Kumogakure. She was kicking and screaming, fighting desperately to get out of Zetsu's grasp. One time, she kicked Zetsu's Venus Fly Trap crown. Zetsu hated having his crown kicked.
Zetsu took a bite of Yugito's arm, ripping out her bicep. Yugito let out a scream that broke a nearby bottle.
"I've never tasted female flesh before. I must say, it is most delicious. Now, you'll be a good little girl, or I'll eat you to death." When Yugito continued to struggle, Zetsu took a bite of her right breast."
"Zetsu, we'll extract the demon first, then you can devour the body."
"But leader, she won't scream in agony then. This is my perfect lunch you're taking."
"And this is my perfect demon you're weakening. I won't tolerate any more."
Yugito was chained onto a giant statue. Hidan performed the rites, not just for the ritual to work, but also because it was so similar to the Jyashin cult's ritual of what to do when an enemy is caught. Stakes were driven into Yagura's abdomen, and she began to bleed and scream profusely.
"Let the power of the Nibi arise, and feed thy soul O great deities."
An apparition of a large cat with two tails appeared above Yagura. It screeched, opening its mouth wide as though trying to swallow the nine Akatsuki members alive. It was truly an impressive sight, as a blazing fireball was let out of the mouth and sped toward the Akatsuki. Though only an apparition, one could feel heat and intensity simply by watching the fireball.
However, a magical barrier seemed to be in place, as the fireball appeared to collide with an invisible wall.
The nine members gathered in a large circle around the giant statue. Each person took off a ring that they wore on their finger, made some hand signs, and pressed their palms on the seal surrounding Yagura. The seal intensified, as a black circle could be easily seen on the ground.
-
"Yes, Zetsu. Fond as you are of devouring female flesh, that is the least of our worries. Itachi, you should have killed Naruto when you had the chance. I never thought I'd see the day, but Kakazu has been killed. Naruto was the culprit. Though Hidan is still alive, he is of no use to us. Even if he manages to chew himself out from the ground, his body has been destroyed. What's worse, Konoha has taken their rings."
"But there are no more Jinchuriki left," Zetsu replied. "And they were of use…"
"No more Jinchuriki alive?" the leader's voice hissed, his voice becoming evil incarnate.
"I'm… I'm sorry, sir. I forgot myself."
"Our operation on the Kyubi will take 3 months now, if we even manage to catch him. Nothing short of an invasion is necessary to stop him. We will need more allies than those wandering ninjas we recruit all the time."
--
A man wearing a large, black cloak was traveling in the Northern Mountains in Earth country. He wasn't extremely intimidating – a little over five and a half foot tall, no bulging muscles, and hunched over as though bearing a terrible albatross – but he appeared quite insidious. The way he moved, the way his breath became water in the cold, and the way he appeared gave every sign of a fiend.
At the base of the next mountain, the man stopped. In front of him was a large tiger, composed completely of light-brown wood. Behind the massive beast lay five tails, prone on the ground. Though dormant, one would be a fool to tickle this cat.
The man lowered his hood, to reveal a face. Though still young, the signs of adulthood and stress were shown clearly on this man. Though appearing quite healthy, the grave look, the redness of the face, and the tough skin clearly meant that this person was full of experience, full of power, and full of responsibility. He was Jyashin, the current Mizukage of the Hidden Village of the Mist.
Jyashin had a black band covering his eyes, which he removed. When he opened his eyes, it was clear that his eyes were no ordinary eyes. Red in the background, with a thick ring around the pupil. It was the Sea Mangekyo Sharingan, the bloodline limit of the Uchiha clan.
Jyashin pulled out a shuriken, and levitated it above his palm. Then, he did two hand signs, and the shuriken multiplied into large masses, as thick as swarms of locusts in a plague. The shuriken flew toward the Tiger, and made such a large impact that quite a few trees in the vicinity collapsed. Crows suddenly flew into the sky, cawing loudly. The tiger seemed to come to life suddenly, and began to shriek, both from rage and from pain. Yes, though the Tiger appeared quite durable, the shurikens had implanted deep into the monster's face.
"Mighty tiger! Let your rage flow into your body! I, Uchiha Jyashin, the Mizukage, challenge you to a duel, with you being my servant should you lose!"
This only agitated the beast more. And finally, it began to move. Being a biju, it possessed monstrous strength, and Jyashin had to move extremely quickly. A large black flame, followed by a swift taijutsu, was unleashed on the Five Tailed Tiger.
The Tiger retaliated by large gusts of compressed air, intermixed with immense chakra. The full power of the Five Tails was upon the man.
"You may be powerful, but you cannot overcome my natural abilities!"
Snake, Dragon, Ox, Tiger, Snake. Five hand seals performed in fluid rapidity. Two large seals, each with strange characters written on the rims, appeared. One appeared from the sky, one from the earth. Both were spinning slowly. They met each other in midair, and the spinning increased. The combined seal suddenly hit the ground with an extremely large force, sending ample amounts of snow into the air.
In fact, an avalanche was started, as the force loosened up the snow. More snow was sent into the air, and the air was thick with snow, so much that a person could not see his own hand, even if he held his hand inches from his face. However, the seal seemed to protect the man and beast, as everything was clear inside.
"The full power of the Orichalcum is upon me! You have no chance now!"
--
"Mighty Tiger, you have been a worthy opponent. Had you any experience among the humans, I would have no chance of victory."
"Why do you keep me alive?" The tiger asked in a low, booming voice. "I have lost an honorable battle. Yet you make no commotion, you treat me with respect. You are unlike the other humans I have dealt with."
"I defeat you, you defeat me, what good can come over that? One must defeat oneself, then one can find true happiness, and one's dreams can come true. Why should we succumb to worldly pressures, or the opinions of others? What good comes from doing what others want? If one truly wishes to become great, one must do what oneself wishes."
"I wish to return to my home, but I have been banished. How can that fate be reversed? I am doomed to roam this world for all eternity, to haunt the humans who dominate this world. Death and rebirth, an endless cycle that I am bound to, is my destiny. I am an incarnation of wood."
"Strive for what you want, even if it costs you your life, and you will have a life with purpose. Your mindless destruction, your brute strength, your great power, all of those have been misused to the point where you have become a mere tool, vied by the humans who dominate."
The Tiger closed its giant eyes, and let out spasms of breath. Though it bore the unmistakable signs of pain, his breath gradually began to soften and turn periodic. Its face began to change to one bearing peaceful sleep. Its form began to disintegrate. Finally, the wood all fell off of the tiger, revealing nothing more than wisps of chakra.
"May you have peace, in your home in the ethereal realm."
"Thank you, Uchiha Jyashin. Should you ever need my help, I will come to your aid."
"Thank you, Mighty Tiger." Jyashin could have made the Tiger obey every one of his commands, as well as the commands of his successors, but that is too much power. No man should ever have such power. No matter how much control he thinks, no matter how many vows he swore, the lure of power is greater than any man could overcome.
--
A woman was standing on a precipice, overlooking the recently transformed Kirigakure. How much it has changed in ten years! She mused. Once synonymous with the very words of "crime", "poverty", and "unrest", Kirigakure has now become the epitome of order and peace.
This woman was holding a picture in her hand. The picture had two people on it, perhaps the only one of them in existence. One was a large man with bandages wrapped around his lower face. He had short black hair, and was carrying a humongous sword that would have weighed over a hundred pounds.
The other person looked remarkably like this woman. However, it was her brother at age 15. He was fanatically devoted to the adult, sacrificing his life in the process to save his master. But what good came out of that? The Swordsman still perished in the battle at the hands of Kakashi.
Two ninjas appeared next to the woman.
"Kira-san. The council demands…"
"Ahem," his companion cleared his throat.
"Uh, requests your immediate presence."
"What is it?" Kira asked irritably as she followed the two. They arrived at a large building with a water kanji on top of it. Kira briefly remembered sitting on that very sign 12 years ago, attempting to sneak inside. Now she simply walks in through the front door, up a set of stairs, and into a dangy old room where the 12 members of the Kirigakure Council sat.
"We are terribly sorry to disturb your solitude." Unfortunately, the man sounded anything but sorry.
"My entire existence is to serve Kirigakure, and its council."
"Very well then, we have a mission for you ... and you alone. A band of Cloud ninja were spotted crossing the border at Cape Landers, in the Northeast quadrant of Water Country. No word was heard from Hidden Cloud, and the ninjas have been reported to settle as ordinary peasants. Their transformations and their daily activities have been documented." He dropped a large folder containing said information, as well as the mission details.
"And why couldn't the Seven Clans handle this?"
"We wouldn't dare risk any bold moves, not without the Mizukage here. We don't have any permission."
"Do you doubt Jyashin-sama's authority?"
"Never in my dreams. But we really cannot afford to do anything related to foreign relations without our dear Mizukage here. The council's power is limited to internal affairs, though anything drastic is left to the Mizukage."
"You do realize your entire existence is to aid the Mizukage, right?" Kira replied with a hint of anger in her voice. "You have the power to assign missions, and pretty much have full autonomy in the little details, which, though small, are nevertheless vital to Hidden Mist's survival. In short, yes, you are to do the dirty work, as you may call it. I'll observe these ninjas, and I report back to the ruling party when I finish with all deliberate speed. Good day."
With that, Kira took the papers lying in front of her, and left the room briskly. When she was gone, the council member murmured "I hate her uncanny ability to understand people so completely."
Kira realized what was going on. There always was a certain friction between Jyashin and his council. Power is extremely luring, and the council, which had once dangled the Mizukage like a puppet, suddenly faced a strong, assertive leader. They would never deny that Jyashin has been a great asset to the Mist; even his most ardent opponents dare not remove him from office. However, they still have a grudge against what they deem as an unfair power balance.
However, despite her loyalty to Jyashin, whom she treats as her own brother, she has had doubts about him many times. At first, she was glad that they might have a good life together, making Kiragakure a prosperous village and they may perhaps even get married … NO, she can't think such thoughts! She is not worthy of Jyashin-sama's attention!
Kira rapidly gained speed, hoping the excess energy would take her mind off such impure thoughts. It worked … about five minutes later.
Anyways, Kira mused, Jyashin seemed like a dream come true, until he reached the age of 14. It was then that the news of the massacre of the Uchiha Clan reached his ears, despite Kira's attempts to cover it up. But then, how could she? Jyashin is a wanderer, and sooner or later, he would have found out. But in her folly, Kira tried to delay the inevitable. Perhaps that fact increased Jyashin's anger, so much that he actually used Tsukuyomi on Kira, torturing her for the full 72 hours. Kira had to stay in the hospital for three weeks, but Jyashin did visit her and say that he was sorry. Had it not been for Kira's natural talents in mind-related jutsu, she would have died before Jyashin finished the second hour. However, after that day, Jyashin changed drastically, and was never again cheerful.
Even though Jyashin claimed that he hated the Uchiha Clan with all his might, and vows to kill them all, he was deeply concerned when it became a reality.
Kira reached the place in no time. The place was inconspicuous, and had it not been for the Mist's excellent system of surveillance, Cape Landers would probably be deserted. After all, the place looked more like a beach resort than a strategic place for enemies to come in. Looking at the mission descriptions, Kira began her mission.
--
Jun was finished with today's tasks. He hated this particular job he was assigned. Of all things, he had to be a garbage man. Jun was sure that Ryo was behind all of this. They were enemies from the moment they met, but Ryo was in a position of power. While Ryo was the superintendent of all covert missions, Jun was stuck as the dirty-work man, doing all the bad things that Hidden Cloud wanted, and getting all the blame and retributions if Kumo was ever caught.
However, Jun succeeded in one thing: he had rallied all the dirty-workers together and claimed that this mission was too large and important to be handled by scum like them, and so, everybody up to the superintendent himself – Ryo – had to come to Kirigakure and infiltrate the village. Jun laughs whenever he remembered Ryo's face as he read some of the bogus excuses Jun wrote. "This mission is of such a vital importance that the immediate presence of all ninja of equal caliber must participate" and "scumbags and superintendents alike are bound by the duty to assist the country, and to each other" made Ryo's face light up like a flame.
This was all part of the massive project of the Alliance, the alliance between Cloud and Rock that is. The recent alliance of Leaf and Sand upset the power balance, and can go unchallenged. Iwa and Kumo, to counter this threat, decided to ally as well. However, as always, the Mist opted to stay out of such meddlesome situations, and the Raikage decided that it was time to annex Kirigakure.
Not only would this increase the Alliance's power against Konoha and Suna, but in case the Alliance breaks down, Hidden Cloud would have an edge over Hidden Rock.
As Jun was walking home, he had to pass a large festival. Jun decided to crash in, hoping the festivities will erase his stress. He partook in a couple games, watched a couple of Kabuki plays, and even bought a couple of souvenirs. Soon, Jun was engrossed in fun, and didn't even notice that a stranger had bumped into him, nor the strange angle at which he was bumped, nor the abnormally confused state of his mind.
As Jun finished the festivities, and had to report to headquarters that night, a woman was smiling. She had put a tracking device on the idiot, and covered it with a simple genjutsu so nobody could see it. Kira was ready to see just what this " Alliance" was all about.
-
Jun walked into the room. It was dark, and cramped, and there were 40 people in there. Everybody turned to look at him, each brandishing a kunai and seeming on the verge of killing Jun. However, they instead relaxed, and turned back to their businesses. All but one.
As quick as lightning, Ryo was on top of Jun. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!!!" Ryo demanded.
Ryo was about to strike Jun's neck with his kunai. Everybody was shocked, Jun especially. Surely that photograph of Ryo half naked in the shower didn't reach anybody? That was only a joke, Jun never intended for his blackmail threat to be real.
"Ryo! Stop it! Okay, it was me! I didn't mean it, and I really hated that unfair promotion, but nothing major! Really!"
However, Ryo didn't stop. "Everybody, SCRAM!" Ryo was not the superintendent for nothing. The other hooligans did not realize it, but Ryo realized that Jun was tracked.
A large explosion rocked the building. Jun was relieved, he was saved. However, his relief suddenly turned to shock. A woman was standing in the room, and had the Mist forehead protector on her right arm. Moreover, she was holding the head of Ryo, which she had cut off in less than a second.
The room went into panic mode, as everybody got ready for a fight. However, no sooner had the quick ones stood up, that they fell down, lifeless.
Now, everybody was REALLY panicking. In their confusion, Kira had no trouble killing them. In less than 30 seconds, Jun was the only person in the room, still not recovering from Kira's sudden appearance. Kira walked toward Jun, and put her hands on his head. Quickly, she had Jun under duress, and had access to all his thoughts.
Kira was stood in a dark alleyway. Images flashed by her, as though on invisible screens. She would pause to take a look at a few pictures, but most went zooming by without her caring. There were also words floating around, and Kira brushed them away whenever they would appear.
Ten minutes later, Kira had everything she needed. Jun was fatigued from his mind being attacked, and Kira realized that she was dealing with a simpleton. She shouldn't have gone too hard on this group, but it was her mission, and she had to do it, especially since Jyashin was not here. Kira put a kunai to Jun's heart, ending his pain.
"Well," Kira said, "it looks like the hunt is on."--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
