Pain entered the Hot Topic, this had been his goal, his dream, he gazed upon the store, that would soon be his, and...the squid man was back.
"I found another squid, its name is mid-"
"Amaterasu." Black flames engulfed Killer Bee, burning him to a nice octo crisp.
"Cool," said Pain, staring at Itachi in admiration.
"It's creepy when you stare at me." Itachi held his hand to his eye.
"Well, it's creepy when you bleed from the eye, so we're even."
Itachi turned away dramatically. "I don't have time for this, I must rid this place from the world."
Pain furrowed his brow. "Hey guy, this is my new apartment."
Itachi turned around again. "No, this is a land of infinite evil."
Pain scoffed. "You just say that, cuz you're a poser."
"Enough of this, you'll find out soon enough." Itachi waved Pain away, but then disappeared from the Hot Topic.
"Excuse me?" Pain surveyed the area, finding that everyone had disappeared from the store.
"I guess they finally learned their lesson." He stacked up trendy tee shirts, and laid back on them. "This new apartment, rocks." Looking down at a shirt next to his face, something seemed weird about it; Pain inspected it. As he lifted up the shirt, a book fell out. "Fifty Shades of Grey!?" He scurried away. "Ew no, please, no."
All around him now, the shelves were filled with erotica for middle aged women. "But, I'm not a middle aged woman!" He tried to shield his eyes, as the sheer volume of books seemed to increase. Feeling overwhelmed, he hurried to the door. He rattled the doorknob, it wouldn't budge. The world turned gray around him, as the books encroached. They bombarded him, slamming into his face, with their pages open. The door, grew roots, and held him in place. Years passed, by the time it finally ended, Pain had every word of Fifty Shades of Grey memorized.
He woke up, Itachi still stood in front of him, brandishing his ring.
Pain throthed at the mouth, Itachi fireman carried him out, and tossed him out on the street. Pain was laid out, just in time, for an ambulance to arrive. Danzo was saved, life alert had done its job.
As the world spun around him, Pain knew he would never see his local Hot Topic again. But he couldn't fathom why Itachi wanted to destroy them, he was also devastated by thoughts of his potential hospital bill, if they picked him up, which it seemed like, that's exactly what they were doing.
With sirens blaring, Pain was transported to the hospital. As they carried him in on the gurney, he turned to see someone who had been drowned in butter, and on his other side, rested Choji, having tried to commit suicide, due to a lack of chips, or friends.
But he wasn't destined for this place, as they carried him down the hall, they threw him into the psych ward. What kind of monstrosities could await him there?
