Hey new chapter :) Here's where things begin to happen a bit more, but hopefully you like it :)
Chapter 3
The men in the other cells could hear the torturous screams coming from cell 11. It was hard to believe some of the toughest men were in there, being ripped into shreds. Renji smiled at the sound of the sickening screams whilst others around him quivered, she was a weapon and if used possibly a way out. But for now the men slept, the hauntings shouts and screams sticking close in their restless sleep.
By the time they awoke it was cold, too cold. The bone chilling draft that occasionally swept into the cells gave away an impression it was snowing, that and the miniscule white flakes that had moved their way onto the bars and doors of cells. Renji could feel the cold in his fingers, this numbing sensation, it made things unbelievably hard to hold onto. And the stone floor only attracted more of this winter chill making the entire cell a freezing cold chamber. Men all over the cell were coughing spreading disease and the vile fluids inside their altered bodies. Soon more would die, and if one of them was him, so be it.
Within seconds after being greeted by the freezing cold, he was taken away from the cell and to the laboratory.
2 hours earlier
Enoki waited patiently for the others to return, slowly chewing on the end of the senbon (needle) as if it were a mere strand of straw. The forest around him was quietly intriguing; it shrouded a mysterious aura. But this green and quite seemingly luscious forest was home to many hidden dangers; already the elite squad had encountered 5 hidden traps in this forest. It seemed the final trap had separated them.
After an half an hour of waiting Enoki gathered they weren't returning, if they did, it would be at his exact location, to represent this Enoki buried a kunai knife into the side of a nearby tree. For now he would have to complete the mission for them.
Enoki continued through the winding treetops to the location of the hideout. This mission was specifically intended to be dealt with by Konohagakure (Leaf Village) but their slow and lazy approach to this mission had caused trouble between Iwagakure (Village hidden in the Rocks) and the land he was now in; Otogakure (Village hidden in the Sound). Quite specifically their mission involved them assassinating Otogakure''s leader.
Enoki abruptly stopped. He could feel a light chakra presence hanging in the air. Immediately a deep cut began to form in the side of his body. Spinning around Enoki kicked out towards the enemy, directly aimed at his head. The enemy jumped back just in time to dodge the blow.
"You're quick on your feet," exclaimed a smiling Enoki. "Let's see if you can dodge this." A sudden power exploded in Enoki as he jumped towards his attacker, his attacker again retreated and began to dodge, punch after punch after punch. Enoki was as quick as he was strong, nobody ever dodged his shots. He enemy took one step forward. Enoki could make out the shapes of a dark purple t shirt, dark purple gloves and long white hair that was tied up at the back. Yet he had no weapon on him.
"You could come with me and save us the trouble," the man stated in an intelligent voice. As he approached closer Enoki could make out the large circular frame of glasses and a hinting smile of mockery.
"Where is this hideout? It is all I am here for."
"Well then," the man began, "I'm sorry your time here will be of waste." Incredibly a blue aura immediately gathered around the man's hands, forming a deadly chakra scalpel. Enoki swore, it explained the cut. Enoki again charged with his kunai. 1, 2, 3 swings the man was dodging them all. Enoki stepped back and all too quickly shallow red cuts began forming all over his body. Enoki screamed, the man was too fast for him.
He hadn't wished to do this so early but it had to be done.
Enoki backed away from the enemy's attacks, giving him enough time to bullet a variety of quick hand seals. Enoki breathed in a large sum of air as though it were his last, and whilst exhaling it a jet of lava shot onto the man, the man tried to dodge it but the lava chased after him, eventually catching up and burning him helplessly. Enoki sighed as the man's flesh tore apart on his arm, creating vile bruises and burns. Enoki turned around, saving himself the pain of watching the man die.
Enoki froze. The man had him around the neck. Enoki twisted his vision to the man's arm, he watched silently as the flesh that he had lost slowly restitched itself together. Medic nin, shit.
The man spoke, "Nice kekkai genkai you have, I'm sure it'll prove useful to my master."
Blisters had begun forming on his lips a while ago, now they were bleeding, soaking his bindings in crimson red as they rubbed on the now callused surfaces that were his ankles, wrists, lips and neck. They were only getting tighter. Ankles tied together, wrists together behind his back, as well as having his lips and neck strangled helplessly, all Renji could do was struggle; kick out in an array of anonymous directions hoping to find a weakness in the ropes bind. But even he knew that would be hopeless. With bindings tighter than he had ever felt, he knew there was no escape from these wicked restrictions.
The loss of blood circulation in his hands and feet now were becoming irritating; going limp and ghostly white shade, giving him limited control in their movements. The frost only increased this paralyzing numbness. The only way he was staying alive was by placing his blood and oxygen cells into his chakra system and moving them around his body using his chakra. Of course, this wouldn't last forever. Even the most skilled shinobi ran out of stamina. Soon Renji would ultimately 'black-out.' But the 'Snake' would have to keep him alive; after all he was to be used for testing, wasn't he?
