ペイン Part 3
"Shouldn't Anbu's be dealin' with this?" Kiba asks Naruto as they gather and pick up their supplies from last night while Kai is sat with Akamaru and his wolf, looking and watching the other's doing the work. "Oh yeah?" Kiba shouts as he looks over to Kai with a sweat-drop, "What?" Kai asks Kiba as he grins, Kiba hated the fact that Kai was too laxy to help with gathering used supplies from last night, though he is kicking ass in battle constantly, gotta hand it to him. The team moves on and now they have reached the hidden mist village entrance, "Not bad, got here in 3 days." Naruto says to the team as he turns his back on the entrance and smiles, "..." Kai and Kiba are left silently as Akamaru and the female wolf is whimpering and looking at their masters, "What?" Naruto asks Kiba and Kai as he turns his head slightly around himself and sees a bridge they need to pass. "This is nothing more then a mere-death trap." Kai states to Naruto and Kiba as he walks fore-ward and pass Naruto. Kai picks up a small plank and throws it on one of the planks on the bridge, further away more in the middle. When the plank hits the other plank on the bridge in the middle, the bridge plank snaps into half and it falls off with the plank that hit it, Kiba and Naruto both have sweat-drops on their faces and have a scared look, Kai turns around to Kiba and Naruto, "You guys go with Akamaru." Kai tells them, and when he does this Naruto looks at Kai, "What are you going to do?" Naruto asks Kai concerned. "Don't worry about me, Naruto. I'll find a way." Kai attempts to reassure Naruto that he'll get across safely, Naruto is left wandering why Kai cannot pass. His weight is perfectly fine, it's not like he's the same weight or near as Choji, so why can't he pass? Kai looks at the bridge and gulps as the mist covers it from time to time. "Look guys, just go." Kai tells the team sternly as he looks away from the bridge and from his team, Kiba nods as he walks across the bridge slowly with Akamaru, watching their every step . Naruto watches Kiba as he shakes with fear, "Did they know we were coming?" Kai thinks to himself as he looks at the bridge and closes his eyes and than Kai raises both of his hands to his chest and claps them together once, he than encloses his fingers on each knuckle except for the index finger and the middle finger and the thumb, Kai than concentrates on his Chakra as he chants a mantra. "Birds in the sky, let me see through your eyes." as stupid as Kai sounds while doing this, this is one of the many techniques he was taught by his father for special op missions such as infiltration of enemy bases, when chanting this mantra and focusing on his Chakra with peace & quiet, he can see through the birds vision of which is close to his objective. Kai suddenly gets a blast of blue light in his sight as he sees through a birds eyes point of view, the bird looks down and Kai can see five Jounin's and a Hokage. Kai gasps and opens his eyes and breaks off the Chakra, after he does this he shakes his head and wipes his fore-head with his right hand to get the sweat off of his fore-head from being surprised. Naruto looks at Kai raising an eye-brow in concern, "Hey, Kai. You sure your alright?" Naruto asks Kai again just to make sure, "Yeah..yeah I'm fine Naruto, just get going." Kai tells Naruto with confidence and sternly as he crosses his arms to his chest and looks to his left side away from Naruto and the bridge. Naruto walks onto the bridge as Kiba and Akamaru are on the other side, as soon as Naruto gets further into the bridge and away from Kai and his wolf companion Kai looks down to his sitting wolf companion and than commands her, "Kasumi, I command you to get over that bridge and wait for my arrival." Kai points out to the bridge, the wolf companion gasped as soon as Kai mentions her name, "I told you to-!" Kasumi gets cut off by her master, Kai, "Listen! There's no time for your games of "name calling"! Okay?" Kai is at this point shouting in anger to Kasumi which frightens her, however she passes the bridge fast and fine without her master, when she arrives with Kiba, Naruto, and Akamaru they all look at her, Naruto kneels down to Kasumi and strokes her with his left hand, starting from the head down to the neck, "Hey girl, where's-?" Naruto gets cut off as there's a thunder sound and than there's a blue light figure running across the bridge fast, the planks break immediately by each of the character's footsteps, the figure than jumps up in the air and lands on their feet as the mist and smoke clears from the heavy landing and the blue lighting stops and so does the thunder, Kasumi turns around and looks at the figure as Kiba looks at the figure and so does Naruto along with Akamaru. Once the smoke and mist clears, Kai is revealed as he is chuckling, "That was fun." Kai says as he is out of breath, panting heavily, and drags out half of the words before falling onto his back, Kasumi walks over to her master, Kai, and licks his cheek, this looks like a normal and ordinary lick, but it actually helps to regain Chakra, again another Technique everyone is taught once they have a companion in the Fearsome Blood Wolves, as Kai sits up and strokes and cuddles his companion, five Jounin's and a Hokage shows up behind the team. The Jounin's are in defensive positions around the Hokage. Naruto stands up and turns to the Hokage, as he was about to talk to him Kai covers Naruto's mouth and hush's him, "Lemme talk to him." Kai says to Naruto quietly, Kai is just guessing the Gender because no one can see the Hokage's face, or any clothing giving their Gender away, as always most of the Hokage's have the long dress with the hat on as-well, the Hokage clears their throat, Naruto walks by Kasumi's side and Kiba turns around with Akamaru. Kai approaches the Hokage slowly and than stops in a distant, and than Kai bows respectfully before talking with the Hokage.
"Hokage of the hidden mist village, I and my team are from the Konoha village, leaf village. We came to look for a friend whose last seen here." Kai tells the Hokage, the Hokage tells Kai, "Your "friend" isn't here, he's come and gone already." Kai and Naruto and Kiba are surprised that the voice seems to be more...feminine, "Did he say where he's going?" Kai asks the Hokage, the Hokage shakes their head as a no response, Kai growls to himself, "Well, just my fuckin' luck, Kankuro is going to be so pissed. So does this mean that Taekai has already gone back home to Kankruo? What the fuck is going on?" Kai is confused as Kankuro did report his little brother here, and now Taekai isn't here? This doesn't make sense to Kai, something is up. Kai slightly turns his head to his team with a confused expression before looking back at the Hokage, "Well, thank you for your help in clearing things up. And thank you for not striking us down." Kai nods to the Hokage as he turns away, "Hmp. No problem. Kai." the Hokage says as they giggle to Kai, Kai stops in his path and turns around, "Wait what? How did you-?" the Hokage knows Kai's name? Ah, she must of known they were coming, "Sorry, I mean, Katsumi Kai." Kai immediately blushes, because now his team knows his full name, and his last name, Katsumi, is a girls last name. Naruto and Kiba burst out laughing on the floor as Kasumi and Akamaru smile at Kai. Kai claps his hands together as he attempts to look confidant, "How do you know my last name?" Kai asks the Hokage, "Easy, I remember you." Kai vividly remembers the voice, and as the wind blows on the Hokage's dress, the scent of a woman he once fought side by side with comes to mind." Kai smiles and nods at the Hokage, "I'll be sure to come 'round when I can, sorry, for; ya'know." Kai scratches the back of his head as he turns around again, "Catch!" the Hokage shouts out to Kai as she throws a scroll to his way, Kai turns around and jumps up in the air and catches the scroll with both of his hands. As Kai lands on his feet and opens the scroll, there are contents of a position where Taekai maybe at. Kai focuses his Chakra and uses his eye sight focus technique again, and he see's the name, "ペイン, ". Kai gasps as he drops the scroll. Kai looks up to the Hokage as she removes her hat and it is her from Kai's past time in the camp, his favourite teacher and his best friend. "Go." the Hokage tells Kai, Kai drops the scroll as he is surprised and nods as he picks the scroll up and runs to the location with his team.
As they are running at full speed, at-least over 300 MPH, Kiba and Naruto are having a hard time keeping up with Kai, "Kai! What are we doing?" Naruto shouts out to Kai, "We're about to bust open Pein and his fucked up team!" Kai states to Naruto and Kiba as they arrive at the Akatsuki's hide out and Kai pulls out his right hand in the air and than focuses his Chakra and chants a mantra as he has his left hand infront of his face, with the fingers enclosed except for his index finger middle finger and his thumb, his thumb is curved however. "Thunder Storm." Kai chants, than a ball appears in Kai's right hand and it swirls around in a blue and grey like dull colour. And than Kai runs straight into the cave's wall, and it busts open with debris flying everywhere and than Kai steps into the cave with his companion and Naruto and Kiba and Akamaru all in defensive mode, Kai walks straight in and stomps his feet in anger and screams out in fustration. "What?" Naruto asks Kai as Kai falls to his knees hard and he has both of his hands on his hair and Kai looks at the ground. "He's not here..." Kai says in a cold, distant, and sad way. Naruto and Kiba walk into the same room and they sigh. Kiba kneels down to Kai as he puts his right hand on Kai's back attempting to reassure him and to calm him down, "Kai, he'll be fine, I'm sure." Naruto kneels down to the ground and than picks up a broken piece of rope and than passes it to Kai, Kai grabs it slowly and than looks at Naruto, "What do you want me to do with this?" Kai asks him as he feels abit better, and stands up as he sniffs and wipes his eyes, "You told me before we went to the bar that you can imagine how situations went with certain objects." Naruto says to Kai, Kai nods, and than Naruto continues. "So, imagine what happened with that rope." Naruto tells Kai, Kai nods as he looks at the rope in his hands, and than Kai closes his eyes and chants another mantra and focuses his Chakra from the Throat. "Sequel." Kai chants. Than vivid sight appears in Kai's eyes as his eyes are shut and he sees Konan and Deidara guarding Taekai as he is tied up in the same exact way, and he has the same exact clothes as he had on. Kai opens his eyes and drops the rope before looking down at the ground while he shivered and gags, "Wow, Kai you alright?" Naruto asks Kai as Kai keeps gagging as if he's going to puke but cannot, Kiba and Naruto keep their distant but are concerned about him, once Kai stops gagging but is shivering with fear and disgust, "They...they tortured him." as Kai tells the team this, Naruto and Kiba look at each-other as they sigh, Akamaru and Kasumi look at each-other as they whimper at each-other. Than Kai pukes on the floor as thoughts run through his head. Kai and the team look around and search the cave for anymore clues or anything else to help them, they cannot and in result they leave.
Once Kai and the team are out of the cave Kai continues to constantly wipes his mouth as his Silvia runs out of his mouth as if he is about to be sick again, "Kai are you sure?" Naruto asks Kai, Kai turns to Naruto and shakes his head, Kai stops trying to hide his weak side, he needs help and he knows it. "Does Sakura still work at the Konoha Hospital, Kiba?" Naruto asks Kiba, Kiba turns to Naruto and shakes his head, "She works at the animal clinic now." Kai coughs heavily before asking Naruto, "Whose Sakura?" Naruto replies to Kai "The second best med-nin in the Konoha village, you'll need her to check you out." Kiba hears this and slaps Naruto at the back of his head, Naruto rubs his head, "Ow! What was that for, Kiba?" Naruto asks as he is in slight pain. Kiba looks at Kai and tells him, "This may be hard for you to get past my compound, but I am the leader of the clan so you shouldn't have a problem." Kiba tells Kai, Kai looks down as he hears this, "What's wrong now?" Kiba asks Kai, "...Your the leader of the Inuzuka, Kiba?" Kai asks Kiba, Kiba nods to Kai. "I don't need help, I feel better." Kai lies to Kiba, he doesn't want to get checked out now, Kai doesn't want to be humiliated infront of Kiba and his clan, well, Kai is afraid Kiba will humiliate him since their clans are enemies. "Kai, you are going to get help." Kiba states and tells Kai, Kai groans and than coughs again.
Taekai is on his knee's as Konan is on his left side, and Deidara is on Taekai's right side, they are guarding him once again as Taekai's hands are chained together from the wrists, infront of him. Taekai still has the same clothes on. Tobi approaches Taekai slowly, and once Tobi reaches to Taekai, he kneels down and speaks with Taekai. "Your one hell of a stubborn fuck aren't you?" "Yeah! So what if I am, Tobi!" Kai raises his voice at Tobi, Tobi takes off his right hand glove and puts his hand on Taekai's cheek, as he does this Taekai gets a short but powerful zap of electric. Taekai groans out in pain and Tobi than asks Taekai, "How long do you think you'll hold out?" as Tobi says this he puts his right hand on Taekai's chest and than goes to zap him, and as he does, Taekai groans out in great pain and his heart is racing, "Another shock should do the trick." Tobi says to Taekai, Taekai than raises his voice at Tobi, "Wait! Wait! Stop..please...alright I give in.." Taekai says as he looks down and he can feel his heart almost jumping out of his chest, Tobi slips on his glove and than chuckles before standing up and walking off leaving Konan and Deidara and Pein to deal with Taekai. Taekai just realized what he had done, he's now accepted to handle the tenth scroll, he looks down and chews on the chains that are connected to his wrist. Taekai is ashamed of himself and he's feeling anxious, depressed, and full of hate for himself. Pein approaches Taekai and he kneels down to him to release him from the chain cuffs, Konan and Deidara kneel down to Taekai as well as they both put their index finger on Taekai's top tip spine, this is a move to subdue violent and people who aren't trusted just yet. And it works in their favour for Taekai.
