Sarathstra: Woo! One more chapter to fix then it's all brain power! :D

Chapter Five: Might Bug One

There was something different about this place... indeed, it was nothing like Shino's house. No, it was a lot darker then she remembered, so it couldn't be. But, she couldn't see anything anyways. She kept her eyes shut tight, until she finally opened them to see where she could be. Her assumtions were right, all she saw was darkness, and through that darkness, not even a hand could be seen. Sakimi just stayed on the ground, since she was laying there to begin with. She wasn't chained or anything, but she didn't want to move... she didn't want to breathe. She felt a new feeling, something she hadn't felt or ever felt before.

Fear...

Feeble...

Vulnerable...

Sakimi looked around her to see if there was any means. No... of course not. That'd be too easy. Sakimi got a good grip on herself and breathed for a while. She missed the comfort of her father and the stupidity of that dog boy... Why? Because she was Safe. Sure, Sakimi was strong. Why wouldn't she be? She's an Aburame and probably a Yamanaka. But strength, with all its power, does not do much when you're afraid. She took one last breath and thought of what her father might do. Then she remembered that book. That book. That very one that trashed the Yamanaka clan, what she might be. Screw this fear and loneliness. She stood up and tried to focus. Sure, she didn't have the Hyuuga bloodtrait, but maybe there was something she could do that would help her in this situation. She couldn't figure out anything she could do and didn't want to send Kujo for safety reasons. So, she decided that she was going to wing it and search around blind. First she lifted her foot up and tapped around for anything that might trip her in her path. When she knew she was safe, she searched for a wall, that she wasn't too far away from. Sakimi hugged the wall as she walked. It didn't take her too long to find the stairs, she wasn't that far away. She crept up the old wooden stairs and saw that there was a dim light from the bottom of the door. There was a hidden smile on her face as she quietly patted the door for any sign of a knob. There was none... how odd. Well, that wasn't going to stop her from stop her from getting out of the darkness.

"Hang on Kujo."

Sakimi placed her hands on both sides of the door frame and gripped it tightly so she could successfully break down the door with her foot. A loud crack echoed the room as the old piece of wood flew from the panel. Sakimi, not seeming to care about breaking down the door, looked around and saw that the room was more like a training area. She was confused, but walked out to have a better understanding of where she was. There wasn't anything 'out of the blue' about this place, it looked real normal to think about it. She took a deep breath and moved forward, but it wasn't a normal walk.. it was a careful pace; she didn't trust anything 'Where the hell am I?' She looked at her shoulder and saw that her bug friend was still there; that takes one worry off of her mind.

"Hello?"

She needed to know that there was no one here so she could make a run for it, although... she didn't trust that there wasn't any security either. Otherwise, why would she be locked into a closet? The young girl heard a voice from behind a door... how could they not answer her. She walked up and heard a conversation that had her name involved into it. Sakimi pressed her ear up to the door and heard a woman's voice and then soon a man followed. She heard things like 'powerful' and 'strange' and connected them together once she heard her name. Sakimi knew that she had a good way to keep her emotions clear, but she wasn't going to stand for it once she heard her father's name and her grandfather's name. Sakimi made a low growl noise and kicked through that door as well, which seemed to surprise the two.

"Speak of the devil."

"Where am I?"

The red-haired woman was scared shitless as she stared upon the young girl, she wasn't that scary... get a grip lady. The blonde man looked at her and laughed as he looked upon her angry as they spoke. He took a step closer to her, but she took a step back.

"Back off buddy."

"Why is that?"

"Where am I?"

The man didn't bother answering her, there wasn't a good use to answer such a bratty, angry kid anyways. He kept stepping closer to the child as if she were fresh meat and he was the lion. And, of course, his attack was going to be better then hers. Sakimi had taken a defensive stance and saw that the man laughed.

"Why do you laugh?"

"You remind me of that dog."

She growled. No one compared her to Kiba, even though he was a good friend to her. She pounced at him, just like she'd made Kiba do to Naruto. She wasn't a match for him, nor was she even close to becoming one. Sakimi was stopped almost on the spot and was taken to the ground.

"Let me go!"

"I am not done with you Sakimi."

"How do you know me?"

He looked familiar to her, of course... a lot of people had. There was something strange about him that made her spine tingle. The woman looked to be not enjoying what he was doing and once she heard the Yamanaka, she was finished. The last thing she heard was, 'Let's go Yamanaka... I don't want to play around... we're here for business.' then he replied with something about prey and that's when things went dark... The last thing that she remembered saying was, "Papa..." Sakimi fainted. Kujo soon left left her, he had is own thing to do and knew that he wasn't safe where she was... He was a smart bug and was very close to the young Aburame, but he needed to act fast. Maybe bugs weren't that smart, but he was going to outdo those other bugs and save his best friend. Kujo flew and flew as fast as he could, he knew that Sakimi was in trouble and there wasn't much time to spare. Kujo knew where to go because of the sent the other bugs left, especially the females. Being of a small stature, it took Kujo a while to get to the Aburame household where he found Shino was sitting on the couch with Kiba, Naruto, and Akamaru.

"I don't know where she could be guys..." Shino said worried.

"Don't worry Shino, we'll find Sakimi, believe it!" Naruto said smiling.

Kiba nodded to them and tried to make Shino feel better in this time of need. Kujo just watched them and fluttered near Naruto to see if he'd notice him, but Naruto only brushed him away without a care. Then he tried Shino, but he was too busy to care. Finally, there was Kiba. Kujo began to fly around Kiba which made him scream and make a scene. He kept talking about a bug being near him and wanting Naruto the squish it. Shino wondered what Kiba was yelling about and soon saw a bug flying about. He heard that Kiba wanted Naruto to squish it and screamed for him not to. He knew who that was and he needed to know why he was here and where Sakimi was.

"That's Sakimi's bug, Kujo!" Shino said cupping his hands so Kujo could land.

"That thing again?" Kiba said moving away.

"Shush, he could tell us where Sakimi is," Shino said looking from Kiba to Kujo. "Please, tell us what happened to Sakimi.

Kujo wasn't able to talk because he was a bug, but he could buzz and the certain pattern of buzz was all Shino needed to understand. Kujo talked about how Sakimi read what Shino wrote in his journal and how she ran to the gates of Konoha crying. He told him how she sat under a tree to calm down, but was soon taken by a man and a woman and woke up in some basement. He explained how Sakimi knocked down the doors and found out that someone from the Yamanaka clan was fighting her and made her faint and she could be in big trouble.

"This is WHY I hate the Yamanaka clan!" Shino screamed.

"What happened?"

Shino explained the story to the others and they understood why Shino was so upset. Shino told them that they had to go there now and Kujo needed to take them there pronto! They didn't have much time...
