I do not own Naruto
"Ni-san. Where are we going?" I looked to my brother and noticed his hands were balled into tight fist.
We had been traveling for some time now, and the silence was beginning to make me nervous. I waited for my brother to answer me, but I got nothing. I waited for a little while longer and then decided to repeat myself.
I spoke a little louder this time. "N-Ni-san…." My sentence was cut short.
"We're here!" I heard Tobi's voice from in front of us.
We landed to the hard ground below and I took in our surroundings.
'Where are we?' I thought to myself as I looked around.
I hadn't noticed that my brother and Tobi had already made their way towards the village in front of us; until I heard my brother's voice.
"Yin. Come." He demanded.
I jerked my head towards him and soon followed.
The streets were cramped with people walking and small children weaving in and out of the crowds. Giggling and chatter filled my ears and broke any train of thought I had. It was a completely different sensation; walking in front of people without my usual mask and cloak attire. My face and body was available for them to gaze at. Strange.
"This way Yin!" I heard Tobi yell at me and waved his hands for me to follow him.
I made my way through the crowd of people and began walking to Tobi and my brother. We made our way to a rather large building and began to ascend the stairs towards the door. Tobi stopped and turned to look at my brother.
"Pein will want to know about this." He said in a very serious tone. "Before we put this mission into action, he will have to see the girl."
'The girl?' I thought to myself and looked towards Tobi.
I felt my brother's eyes glaring at me. "Yin. You're going to have to behave yourself, understand?"
I jerked my head up to meet my brother's eyes and slowly nodded my head.
Tobi reached for the door and grasped the knob in his hand. He turned it, and walked inside the dark room ahead. My brother took big strides until he was inside and turned back to make sure I was following his lead. I advanced towards him and let the darkness engulf my entire body. Tobi closed the door behind us and motioned for us to continue walking forward. There were small windows that let a small sliver of light grace the floor. It was cold and smelled very metallic; almost, like blood. Shaking. It started in my hands and up my arms; soon I felt my stomach twist into knots.
"Pein-sama." Tobi said in an unusually dark tone.
"Tobi. You have brought Yang and the girl." I heard a man with a very deep voice speaking to us from behind the darkness.
Steps. Whoever was speaking was coming closer.
I saw him emerge from the darkness. A woman followed shortly after. They were amazing.
My brother bowed. "Pein-sama, Konan-san."
'Ni-san knows these people?' I thought to myself in shock.
The man had so many striking features; his hair was a bright orange, piercings were lined on his face, and his eyes. Mesmerizing. And then there was the woman; beautiful. Her hair was a shade of blue that made her amber eyes shine. She only had one piercing though; under her bottom lip.
"Yin." My brother looked at me through heavy lidded eyes.
I turned my head to face him and noticed that he bowed his head over slightly. I caught on to his meaning quickly; and then facing the man and woman in front of me, I bowed deeply.
"This is the girl then?" I heard Pein say as I straightened my back.
"Yes, this is Yin." I heard my brother say.
"If you don't mind showing the both of us, what is causing her ailment." Pein said, and held his hand out in front of him; waiting.
I saw my brother nod his head and then he turned to me.
My eyes grew wide as I saw his hand reaching for my arm. He clutched my arm in a death grip and pulled me towards Pein and Konan. My heart was beating so loudly that I could hear it inside my ears. I couldn't think. I couldn't speak. I felt my body get hotter with every step we took. Soon, my body just froze. My feet stopped moving and I felt my brother pull my arm in an attempt to move my body forward. I wasn't budging. He looked back at me and I saw his eyes; his blood thirsty eyes. He yanked my arm forward and I fell below Pein's feet.
"Ni-san!" I shouted in his direction.
He bent down in front of me; never looking at my face. I felt him grab the back of my head and push it towards the floor beneath me.
I yelped and tried to wriggle my way out of his hold.
His grip tightened on the back of my head and I felt his hand run down my back. I stopped.
"N-Ni-san, p-please…." I started to beg him.
He stopped when he reached my lower back and grabbed my shirt in his hands.
I could feel him peeling my shirt off of my back and my eyes started to sting with tears. He let his hold on the back of my head just long enough to rip the shirt over my head, and then it was back again. I didn't know what to say. My body started to shake and the tears were beginning to create a small puddle under my face.
"Release." I heard my brother say quickly.
Burning.
I could see smoke. I could smell it. I could feel it. And I screamed.
My brother swiftly pulled me into his chest and pulled my arms around his body. I was sweating and shaking so much from the pain; I leaned into his body for some type of support. I felt someone's cool hand on my back running there small finger's in a soothing circle. I quieted my sobs a little and took in a deep breath, trying to focus on the gentle hand on my back.
"It is a seal, but I've never seen one used like this." Konan spoke softly behind me.
"You know who did this to her correct." I heard Pein's deep voice following Konan's.
"Yes." My brother said.
"You've tried removing it before." I could hear Pein shifting behind me.
"Yes." My brother answered quickly. "I've tried everything."
"And what about the other girl?" Pein said calmly.
"I'm unsure." My brother said.
I could feel the pain searing through my body. My lids were beginning to get heavy and I gave into the darkness.
