Its been a week since the whole accident with Scarlett happened. Snake Eyes would come at night and check up on me and we'll talk for a few hours. For now I can say that I might have feelings for him,but he will never go for a girl like me. Would he?
"So no more Kimiko VS Scarlett?" Duke said as looked at Scar and I. Scarlett shook her head. "How did that happened?" Rip said not fully convinced "Muffins" I simply said. "We have muffins?" He said in a cheerful voice, Duke gave him a 'What the fuck' look. Rip cleared his throat "I mean.. We have muffins?" He said with a deeper voice. We all laughed, I felt a hand on my shoulder I looked up and saw Snake, he jerked his head towards the door and walked towards it. I got up and followed him.
"Whats up?" I finally said after what seemed forever. He didn't answer "Snake?" He pushed me towards a room and locked the door. The lights went on and I saw a bunch of worned out katanas hanging, pictures of old dojos on a board, then a picture of two kids one in black and one in white. I felt Snake behind me I turned around but he didn't look at me he looked straight at the picture. "Is it you?" I asked.
He looked at me and signed "Guess." I looked back at the picture "This one" I pointed at the boy with black, I looked at Snake and he nodded. I smiled then I noticed another picture, it was an old man with Snake Eyes. "Who's this?" I sensed him tense up as he walked next to me.
"This is was my master, I trained with him and my sword brother, Storm Shadow" He signed as he ran his fingers on the picture. "What happened to him?" He clenched his fist but then relaxed.
"Dead" He signed. My eyes widen "I'm sorry...how did he died?" He turned to face me "I was young and homeless. One rainy day I was looking for food, I ended up sneaking in his kitchen. That's where I met Storm Shadow. We fought,with me taking every hit of course, but I got him a few times" He stopped then continued "When we were fighting he kept pushing me towards tables filled with food, and every time he did that I'll quickly take some food and shove it in my mouth" I laughed and he chuckled. After a few minutes of silence, he continued,"The Hard Master came and made him stop. He welcomed me to his temple and soon became part of the Arashikage clan. Storm Shadow was never happy that I got in his clan mostly because the master always favored me, at least that's what Storm Shadow always said." He stopped but soon continued "It was a normal day, everything was relaxed until I heard the Hard Master scream, I ran towards him but it was too late. There was a sword on his back I looked around and saw Storm Shadow running away I tried to stop him but it was too late he was gone. He never returned, everybody blamed him for killing the Hard Master. That day I took a vow of silence to honor him"
I didn't know what to say, I was out of words. I found myself hugging him, my arms around his waist. I could tell he was surprised due to his body tensing up. He soon relaxed placing an arm around my waist and his hand going up and down my back. "Thank you for telling me. I know you didn't want too." I looked up at him my arms still wrapped around his waist, he looked down and signed.
"I promised" I felt his arms wrap around my waist pulling me closer to him. The moment was just perfect until the room started making beeping noises and there was red lights flashing. He quickly pulled away and grabbed two guns he took one and gave one to me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me out another door which lead to a room but not just any room, his room. He opened the door revealing the hall with everybody running towards the elevator and some towards some stairs. We quickly got in the elevator and headed towards the jets.
