Maybe some of you can leave criticism in the reviews? Anything to help us along, lol.
"Well...what do we have here?"
Kamryn quickly pulled Olivia beside her and away from the two strange figures. Looking them over, she still couldn't quite make out faces.
They were wearing large black cloaks that had red clouds outlined white on them. The collars were large, large enough to cover the bottom of their faces. Big straw hats covered their heads and were tilted at just the right angle to hide the rest of their faces. The larger one seemed to have something big strapped to his back.
Slightly disturbed by their outfits, she couldn't help but make a face, "Who are you?"
The females in front of the two men were strange. Neither of the men seemed to detect any chakra from either one. They obviously didn't have weapons because their clothes surely couldn't hide anything.
The shorter of the two had short dark hair and a round face, and the taller, older one, had wavy white blonde hair, which fell just above her shoulders. They were both wearing rather revealing swim suits. The shorter one was trying to cover herself with a towel that she clutched onto.
The dark haired girl stood with wide eyes, filled with fear. While the blonde had much more composure. She stared down the men as she held onto her friend.
The blonde spoke up, her nose scrunching up as she looked the men over, her voice tight, "Who are you?"
The larger of the two men let out a low rumbling chuckle, revealing to the women who had spoken previously, "I believe we should be the ones asking that"
The brunette answered, voice shaking a bit, "Why should we tell you who we are?"
Another voice spoke out, obviously the shorter man, his voice was low and smooth, not quite as deep as the taller of the two, "You're the ones trespassing." He squinted his eyes at the two, "Just tell us who you are and why you're here."
The both stood quietly for a moment, before the blonde answered. "We don't even know where we are. We had no idea we were trespassing."
The shorter man let out a grunt, clearly dissatisfied with their answer, but the taller man spoke up. "Alright." He paused. "Well where did you come from?"
"Well," the timid girl started, taking a deep breath before continuing. "We were on a cruise ship, and then it was really weird. There was this huge flash." She motioned with one arm, being sure to keep her towel up. "And then, this is the weirdest part, we just wake up in the forest. Like, this doesn't happen right? How can we be on a ship one minute and the next be way out in the wood?" The girl barely paused between sentences as she spoke.
The larger man let out a laugh as the girl finished talking, "That's a good question."
The shorter man let out an annoyed sigh before speaking. "Enough." He was clearly very aggravated by their short encounter. "Tell us who you are and where you're from."
Olivia gulped, her eyes shifting between the two men, and then to Kamryn, who met her worried gaze.
"We're from the states." Kamryn spoke up, she was trying her best to not sound too intimidated, but failed. Her voice shook as she spoke again, "I'm Kamryn. This is Olivia."
The two men shifted uneasily. "Any idea what 'the states' are, Itachi?" The tall man spoke to his partner, who shrugged.
"It doesn't really matter," Itachi stated. "They do not appear to be a threat to us." He removed his hat, staring the girls down with his red eyes.
Both of the girls took a step back when Itachi moved. Olivia made eye contact first, stumbling backwards again when his eyes widened and started to change.
"W-what the hell are you?!" Olivia exclaimed, tripping over the foliage on the forest floor while trying to back away, closing her eyes tightly.
Itachi quickly got into a fighting stance, drawing out a kunai and his partner followed suit. "What's wrong?" He barked out, getting ready to draw the massive sword that was on his back.
"She resisted my sharingan."
Grabbing Olivia by the arm Kamryn started moving them back as quickly as possible, stumbling slightly as she spoke, her voice breaking a bit as she stared at the weapon with wide eyes, " What the hell?! Why are you taking out weapons?! Didn't your parents ever teach you that violence is never the answer!?"
Looking at his partner and irrupting in a fit of barking laughter, Kisame's arm fell from reaching for his sword as he slapped his knee.
Itachi's eye twitched unnoticeably at his partners stupidity before moving behind the two women quickly, seeming to disappear to them for a second.
Olivia spun around with a gasp, trying to find the man. As she moved to turn Itachi quickly knocked her out using the grip of his kunai, catching her limp form.
Kamryn, who was in front of Olivia, turned at hearing her friend gasp. Seeing her friend limp in the strange man's arms made her go in full panic mode. Lunging thoughtlessly at the two, she forgot about the other man that she had turned her back to.
Kisame, quickly and easily grabbed the frantic woman and ended her struggling, knocking her out as well.
The full moon reflected off of the calm stream that the man called Itachi sat by. His eyes were closed, his hands lay flat on his lap, the only sound was the quiet trickling of the water and an occasional forest animal. He sat for several minutes before speaking, seemingly to himself.
"Pein," his eyes were still shut, "we've apprehended some strange rouges. We're taking them back to the base in rain for questioning. Our main mission will be delayed, but this seems important. They seem to have some special ability…" He trailed off. His face scrunching in what could be mistaken as disgust at that last part.
He did a few more quick hand signs before opening his eyes again. He rubbed at his weary red eyes, before deactivating his sharingan. He looked over to his partner, who had become increasingly annoyed with the wait. The two girls sat slumped up against a tree, still unconscious, and bound with chakra ropes.
"Took you long enough," Kisame's voice was gruff, obviously annoyed by them stopping. He didn't understand why they couldn't just let Pein know when they got to the base, they were just a few hours away. The large man turned from his silent partner, hoisting one of the women up and over his shoulder. The blonde girl let out a grunt in her unconscious state as she was thrown about. Itachi followed suit just moments later, though a bit gentler.
Once they had their captives in tow, they disappeared into the tree tops, zooming off to their destination. To an untrained eye, they would have appeared invisible in the dark night. Their large black and red cloaks but a flash in the tree tops.
An hour passed and the larger of the two men came to a stop on a large branch. His captive had started to awaken. His partner stopped a few branches ahead, turning to look back at him. "What's the delay?" He rose a dark brow, adjusting the girl on his shoulder. Kisame just tilted his head towards the now squirming woman. He thanked Kami that they had put chakra seals on their mouths, even with them, she was making quite a noise, scaring a few crows out of the trees.
"Just go on ahead," Kisame nodded to his partner, who complied and disappeared immediately. Kisame let out a sigh and hoisted the girl off of his shoulder, furrowing his brows as he stood her up on the branch in front of him. Her legs were wobbly, but he steadied her with his large hands. She stared up at him with wide eyes, still not being able to see his face, going silent.
"Look," he started, "We can do this easily and you can just stop being a shit and stay still." He shrugged, as she made a noise of incoherent protest. "Well, if you want to do it the hard way that works too." He rose a brow, and the girl shut up. "Good." He nodded, throwing her over his shoulder again. "Hold on." He let out a chuckle, making the slightly dazed woman grunt and close her eyes tightly.
Kamryn had been very dazed when she awoke on the man's shoulder. She could hardly move, and somehow, couldn't open her mouth. It seemed as if she was bonded by invisible ropes and her mouth taped shut by thin air.
She thrashed about however, vision blurry, and disoriented. Then the man removed her, her head spinning as he placed her on her feet. She almost felt sick as she stared up at the terrifying mysterious man. Their encounter was short and to the point. Although terrified, Kamryn played it cool and just agreed to not be knocked out again. Her body hurt enough as it was.
He threw her back over his shoulder, dizzying her once again and took off. Her eyes couldn't even focus on the ground below her, it was moving so fast. She blinked, squinted, and then closed her eyes tightly. She must be in worse condition than she though.
To have this blurry of vision was bad. Or maybe they were just moving that fast? She brushed it off, despite being thrown over a man's shoulder, the ride was surprisingly smooth. So much so that Kamryn drifted back off.
Itachi reached the rainy city before his partner, as to be expected. The downpour soaked his cloak, and the girl over his shoulder, but he kept moving in the thick rain. Finally his steps came to a stop. He stood outside of the tallest tower in the grim city. He pushed open the large wooden door with his free hand and entered the warm, dry room. Without a second thought, Itachi lay the unconscious, now soaking, girl on the cold stone floor. He placed his cloak and hat on a hook behind the door. Thanks to them, he had come out of the rain without a drop in his actual clothes.
He grimaced as he looked down at the girl on the floor, who stirred. Somehow, she had stayed knocked out the entire way, unlike her friend. If he could, he would have just left her there on the floor, but he knew Pein wouldn't accept such a thing, neither would Konan. He let out a sigh before he picked up the soaked girl, carrying her below ground to their holding cells.
The large metal door of cell creaked open. It was somewhat medieval looking. Chains hung from the walls, there were some small cages, all sorts of torture devices hung around. They didn't use them much anymore. In fact, the cells down here hadn't seen anyone in quite some time.
Itachi placed the girl on the floor, this time, the cold tile awoke her. Her eyes groggily opened. She slowly blinked before staring wide-eyed, and silent at Itachi, who had reactivated his sharingan. Silently, Itachi reached for a chain and clapped it around her ankle. Making a few hand signs and releasing her from his chakra ropes. Her body relaxed as the invisible bonds disappeared.
A sigh blew out through her nose, unexpectedly. She still lay in silence, eyes locked on Itachi's, who glared down at her. "Keep quiet down here, girl." His voice was smooth and monotonous. He did another hand sign and the chakra binding her mouth shut was released. She again felt the invisible pressure disappear. She inhaled deeply through her mouth, adjusting herself for the first time since he had released her.
Her body was sore all over, her muscles stiff. She sat up as he turned to leave the room. "What's going to happen to me?" Her voice was low, barely audible, but it echoed through the large, barren room. He stopped before the door. He didn't have an answer, and if he did, he wouldn't give it to her. He proceeded to open the door and leave. The loud sound of the door closing hurting Olivia's ears.
