And:
A person note to LOSGAP: I know- i miss Sandaime too :( - and maybe... we'll have to see about that, wont we?

I had no clue exactly how long I had been gone- how long it had been since I left the only place I had felt safe; the place I had called home, after I had lost everything as a child- Konoha. It was probably close to two months. Walking along, I continued on- only stopping briefly when elderly insisted I do. Apparently, I looked ill or fragile- I probably did. At nights, I could barely get any sleep- I was to afraid I'd wake up to find out that someone somewhere had gotten attacked. And I didn't have any money on me to buy any food- so I ate what I could find along the paths in the forests: berries and other edible plants. After a while though- I finally reached my dreaded final destination. Orochimaru's hideout- I knew he was here. I could feel it deep within me. Don't ask me how- I just did. It was almost as though it was how Tsunade-sama explained it; a connection between father and daughter. Dropping through the hole in the ground, I landed and looked around the darkened corridor. Taking a deep breath- wondering how this was going to end- either in me running for my life- or me actually being allowed to stay here- I began walking towards him. I knew he had to be somewhere within this maze of rooms and corridors- and after aimlessly wondering, I felt myself getting closer to him. Shivering, I took another deep breath- as I felt an almost unbearable pain shoot through me. Hunching over in agony, I was some how able to keep from crying out- but someone else someplace else didn't- and I listened to them scream out in fury and agony. I kept walking, despite the pain, and followed the pain, as it grew- worse- to a closed door. Finally- the pain was gone- and I took one final breath; then I reached out, placing my hand on the door handle, and opened the door. Standing in the doorway, I stared at the person on the bed.

"Well well, this is a surprise," he smirked.

"Kameera." My eyes roamed away from the bed and to the person standing beside it.

"Kabuto." Our eyes stayed locked for about a minute before I looked back at the bedded person.

"Orochimaru."

"What do I owe this wonderful visit?" he asked, smiling.

"…" I was thinking of some things to say- but they all ended somehow in me getting myself killed or seriously injured for saying them. So, instead I kept silent.

"What's the matter? Speechless?" Orochimaru smiled.

"Go to hell," I spat.

"I already have," he sneered. We stared at each other for a little while longer- then I used a technique I had- and shoved all that had happened to me recently because of him- all the memories of the attacks- I made him watch them inside his head. As they finished, he smiled- actually smiled!- at me.

"Looks like you've had quite a horrible time recently," he smiled evilly.

"Bastard."

"Now- watch your mouth," he continued," Just because you're my daughter- it won't stop me from killing you. In fact- after I take Sasuke's body… I'll probably take yours as well."

"Fine with me- I have no other reason to live. You've done destroyed my life back in Konoha," I sneered.

"How long has it been since you've seen your old friends?" he asked out of no where.

"Almost two months- why?"

"Not that long ago- some came here- after Sasuke-kun…" Orochimaru said, and my eyes widened. Naruto- it had to have been Naruto… and Sakura… and Sai… Just thinking of them made my heart slightly ache. But there was nothing I could do- they were in the past now.

"Kabuto- show Kameera to her room- she looks like…" Orochimaru began.

"Hell- I know. The Devil himself is my father," I finished for him. He glared at me, and I glared back. Kabuto wordlessly left Orochimaru's bedside and came towards me. As he passed me, his arm came out towards me and I moved. My glare turned towards him, and we stared at each other. His arm dropped, and he began walking away. With one last glare at Orochimaru, I turned and followed Kabuto. After a little while, I began feeling bad for how I had just treated Kabuto. After all- he had been my first love… my first boyfriend… my first kiss… and he probably would be one of the only friends I would have here.

"Sorry." I managed to say, my jaw barely moving- as though it was trying to refuse speaking.

"For what?" he asked, glancing back at me, confused.

"For how I treated you back there…" I told him," It's just with all that's happened to me… I am finding it hard to trust anyone- finding it hard to get close to anyone."

"Ah," he nodded once, looking ahead- he didn't want me to see the evil glint that passed in his eyes, but I didn't need to see it- I felt it. He didn't care about me- he would take any opportunity to turn me into one of Orochimaru's test subjects. Just like I thought- another wasted relationship. Great- just great.

"I never stopped caring about you- you know?" he told me. At first, I began rolling my eyes- but then I felt it, deep inside. He was telling the truth. This was a side of him that he barely let show- the side of him that he kept hidden away, locked up inside. I kept the gasp inside- not letting him know I was shocked. Composing myself, I looked at the floor- allowing the blush to travel across my face, as he sneaked a peak back at me as we walked. He smiled softly as he looked forward and we continued on. Finally, we came to a stop at a door; he opened the door for me- and stepped back.

"Here you go. I guess I'll be seeing you around," he said, and before he left, he continued," I wouldn't go wondering around too much if I were you- if you do, be careful on where you go and what doors you open. You might open one and it be empty, and then open the next and die the next second. Just a warning." I nodded, and he walked away.

{KONOHA- Normal POV}

"I hope she's alright- wherever she is," Rara whispered, looking out at the night sky from the rooftop she was on.

"Even with what she done to you? And to the others?" Neji asked from beside her, studying her.

"Yes- it wasn't completely her- according to Tsunade-sama. It had been Orochimaru," Rara said," And besides- I know Kami. That look in her eyes before she attacked me… her eyes were pure white- and I saw a tear travel down her face. She was possessed and I know it."

"Alright- but I still can't completely forgive her," Neji said," Not only did she attack you- she attacked my younger cousin, Hanabi."

"I know- and Choji- and Kiba… why she attacked them, I don't know. That's still a mystery to everyone," Rara said softly, pondering on why Kameera had attacked them. Thankfully- everyone was 100 percent again- and everyone had survived the attacks.

* Later on *

"Alright- ready Shikamaru?" Asuma asked, and the younger shinobi nodded. With that, they set out on there mission.

"Think they'll be alright?" Calael asked her older sister.

"I believe so- I mean sure they're going after Akatsuki members who are killing the people that Asuma sensei used to work with- but they've got brains on their side. I'm pretty sure they'll be alright," Rin said, and Calael nodded. Rara though- had a bad feeling about their mission- as though something bad was going to happen.

I hope everything will be alright, she thought, as she and her sister turned and walked back through the village

{BACK AT OROCHIMARU's HIDEOUT – Kameera's POV}

"Holy crap…" I whispered, as I watched Sasuke's training from a distance. He had certainly changed. No longer was he the young shinobi I knew from Konoha. Now, he was more deadly, lethal… and- in a way- evil. In mere seconds he had laid out a complete field of opponents- not killing a single one. They all lay there, unconscious though, and he left them there. Deciding to leave, I got up and went back to the hideout. Though as I jumped in, and began walking, I heard someone jump into the hideout behind me. My hand would have traveled to my kunai- but I didn't have time. The person behind me already had a blade pressed against my throat. It was then I realized who it was.

"Relax Sasuke-kun," I said, raising my empty hands," It's just me." The blade kept its position for another couple seconds or so- and then lowered.

"What are you doing here Kameera-chan?" he asked me.

"This is where I have been for a good couple days now. I left Konoha on my own- I didn't want to risk accidentally attacking anyone else I cared about," I explained.

"So the attacks around here- of experiments being found attacked in their sleep- it's you?" Sasuke asked me.

"Yes," I said sadly, and he saw that I hated doing it," It's kind of a long story."

"Make it short."

"I'm Orochimaru's daughter- and I have empathy. So, when he feels the need to kill someone- that feeling travels to me through my powers because of the family-bond me and him share," I told him, shuddering at how that sounded," And instead of killing the person- I just keep attacking people till the feeling of wanting to kill disappears."

"Uh-huh." Sasuke shrugs- and walks away, and as he walks away, he says to me," If I find you trying to kill me one night- you wont live another day." My eyes widened in shock as I watch him walk away.

Did he just?.... He did! He just threatened to kill me! I thought, shocked. Then, shrugging, I continued on to my room.
