It all comes down to this..
Between Life and my sanity, Which was hard to get back.
Humming heard outside the bathroom door, Sweat dripped from my face.
There is only one escape.
"We meet again.. Window" I cocked an eyebrow as I stared at the window, It mocked me with it's invite to the outside. I ran over to it and gazed out of it..
"Crap" I muttered, It was high up.. Too high to risk it, Kakuzu would not be pleased if he had to heal me again. "Pet-chan" The voice of terror sang outside the bathroom door "Is Pet-chan done?" Tobi asked knocking on the door loudly.
I gulped as I stared at the door, I looked to the window.. Back to the door then the window..
..Broken bones or bleeding ears.. Broken bones, bleeding ears.. bones or ears.. What's more important?
I slouched over with a whine "Gah, I guess I'm over reacting.." I looked to the door and took a deep breath as I walked over to it.. Be strong..Be strong.. Be strong, Be strong!
I slowly opened the door..Be strong, be strong be strong be stro-AH!! THE HUG OF DEATH!!
"Ack!" Tobi tightened his grip around my poor sore body, He hummed happily "Pet-chan! Tobi wants to play! Play With Tobi?!?" He yelled right into my ear, Which left a ringing that causing a MAJOR headache.
"T-Tobi-sama, I-I.." I swallowed my weakness "..I'll play with you" Just saying that left the worst taste ever in my mouth, I felt as I was dropped onto the floor "Yay! Tobi thinks we should play outside first!" He yelled out happily and cheerfully as if there wasn't a wrong this in this world.
But there was.. and I was staying with them.
..As a pet.

Kisame entered his room and sighed heavily, He didn't feel the least bit good. He flicked on the light and looked to his bed. "...Damnit! HIDAN!!" Kisame rushed out of his room, He slammed his fists onto Hidan's locked bedroom door.
"Open The Damn Door!!" He yelled out hearing thumps inside, Followed by loud curses. The door swung open "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT?!?!" Hidan roared glaring heavily at Kisame.
"Where The Fuck Is Misaro?!" Kisame yelled back, Hidan growled before rubbing his head that he had hit multiple times on his way to the door "Why the fuck are you asking me? You just fucking woke me up!!" Hidan glared at Kisame with pure hate.
Kisame returned the glare "Tell me now, Bastard" Kisame said lowly as he stepped closer to the Jashinist daringly, Hidan cocked an eyebrow before smirking "Why are you wanting to know? Wanna be the first to fu-"
He was met with a fist in his face, Hidan fell back onto his ass. He stared shocked up at Kisame as the blue man seethed "If you hurt her in anyway, I'll rip out your spine from your fucking throat" Kisame turned and walked down the hallway leaving a shocked Hidan.
"What the fuck.." Hidan jumped to his feet and glared at Kisame's retreating back "Hey! Get The Fuck Back Here!! I'LL FUCKING BEAT YOUR BLUE ASS!! BASTARD!!!" Hidan stomped his foot angrily.
"GAH!! I CAN'T GET ANY SLEEP!!!" Deidara roared as he opened his door, He glared at Hidan "Shut Up And Take A Freakin' Chill Pill!!" Hidan glared back at the blonde who continued to yell "Dammit!, un!!" Deidara turned back to his room and slammed the door shut, Hidan grumbled as he went back into his slamming the door shut aswell.

I jumped as I heard yelling from a distance, I couldn't make out what they were yelling about.. But.. It was sure yelling, Men voices too.. But who would be yelling so early in the morning?
"Tobi picked flowers for Pet-chan!" Tobi chirped as he shoved a handful of beautiful flowers infront of me, I stared at the various colors.. red, purple, blue, yellow and white.
"Tobi-sama.. I.." I looked surprised up at him "..No one ever got me flowers before.." I took them slowly, I smiled warmly "They're beautiful, Tobi-sama.. Thank you" I sniffed them, Their scent just as wonderful as their beauty.
"Pet-chan is so pretty, These reminded Tobi of Pet-chan" He chirped once again, I blushed slightly "Thank you.. Tobi-sama, I-I.. Thank you" I smiled up at Tobi warmly, Despite him being so loud and annoying.. He was cute and sweet.. Like alittle kid, Maybe Tobi isn't so bad.
"Pet-chan wanna play with Tobi now?" Tobi asked tilting his head to the side, I nodded "Sure Tobi-sama, What do you want to play?" He clapped happily before he placed a finger over his mask where his chin would be.
"Ah! Tobi wants to play Hide And Go Seek!!" He cheered pointing upwards to the warming morning sky, I nodded "Okay, Who goes first?" I use to play this with my little brother all the time.
"Pet-chan can go hide first, Tobi will count to fifty" Tobi said happily, I smiled "Okay Tobi-sama, Start counting" I said as I ran past him, He stared at me as I ran further away from him through the tall grass. I heard faint laughing before I could faintly hear him start to count.
I chuckled as I ran through the tall beautiful grass, I had my leash in hand. I enjoyed the wind through my hair, The way my heart beated rapidly from the excitement. Tobi reminded me so much of my brother.
Is that why I'm playing? Is that why I'm not sulking in a corner? ..Is that why Tobi can make me smile, A true smile? ..Is that why Tobi brings back memories? Because he acts like my brother?
Whatever it is..I like the feeling I have right now, The adrenaline pumping through my veins. I was still laughing, I don't know why. It's just going to tire me faster, I'm laughing unconsciously. Is that normal?
It's been a while since I laughed this hard.. But, I like it. I like the pain in my sides, The way my heart just lifts in my chest. The sound of my laughing was terrible, I almost forgot how awful I sound when I laugh.
I turned and jumped down a small hill, As I landed I stared into the forest. After several seconds I smiled, I ran into the forest darting to avoid hitting the trees.
Whoever said that playing is a waste of time, Was wrong. Talk about working out! My legs burnt and my chest tightened from my swift running. I had my back to a tree while I was breathing heavily but tried to keep it from being too loud.
Soon, My breathing was in check and I scouting my surroundings. My eyes widened.. Someone was heading this way, I looked around me quickly for somewhere to go. I looked up into the tree..That'll do.
I climbed the tree with experience that I thought I had lost, I soon was seated onto a branch. I stared down at the direction the sound had came from, My ears twitched as I focused my long forgotten chakra onto my hearing distance.
..Those footsteps.. It was a man.. Around a hundred and.. twenty three pounds?.. Wow.. I must be getting my skills back, I'm not weak anymore. I guess Pein had planned this out as well.
"Pet-chan! I See You!!" I jumped and fell out of the tree, I yelped as I my head made contact with the hard unforgiving ground.
Ow..
I fell over onto my side and sat up rubbing my throbbing head, I looked up at Tobi as he clapped "Pet-chan hid good! It took Tobi awhile to find her! Pet-chan's a good pet!" He cheered causing me to frown.. So close.
I sighed as I stood, Ignoring my pulsating head.. I forced a smile at Tobi "Tobi-sama, I tried my best" I replied sad, Sad that I wasn't nearly as good as I remembered.. But I was twelve when I was put into my mental test, My body hasn't trained since then.. I guess I haven't fully gotten back my strength yet.. I wonder if Kisame would train me?
..For my own self defense, Of course.. Not for the aid of these criminals.
"No! Tobi had fun! Atleast Pet-chan plays with Tobi, Pet-chan's Tobi's Friend!!" Tobi cheered again clapping rapidly, I watched him then smiled softly.. So much like my brother.. My brother would even speak in third person to either get out of punishment or try and get on my nerves. I always saw it as annoying but now.. I see it as cute.
I stared at Tobi, I felt different emotions bubble up in my chest.. sorrow, anger, fear, regret, loneliness.. But, I just simply pushed them down and ignored them.. Tobi was the one who reminded me of my brother..
I have to get away from him, He's making me feel those useless emotions.. I must go.
"Tobi-sama.. I.." I placed on a stoic face "..I'm hungry, I'm going to go back and find something to eat. I'll see you later" I said turning my back to him, I began walking clearly sensing his confusion.
"What..why? Tobi wants to play some more! Pet-chan! Please play with Tobi!! Tobi's A Good Boy!!" I simply ignored him as I quickened my pace, I was trained mentally.. I was trained well to ignore pity and guilt. It didn't bother me at all to leave Tobi alone, Pein-sama wanted it that way..
He wanted me emotionless, Well he succeeded. I need to thank him, Without him putting me through that agonizing test..I'd still be mourning over my family.. If I hadn't killed myself yet.
Maybe.. Just maybe.. Being a criminal wouldn't be so bad.
For me not to kill, I'd have to have to feel.. Pity and remorse.. but no.. Those emotions are useless to me, My family.. Was slaughtered and forgotten, I don't need to prove to them. They're not here, If I feel anything..
It's loyalty to whom opened my eyes.
Pein..
