Disclaimer I don't own Naruto only my oc's ( Edited on 1-9-2017)
I was in the bathroom looking at my reflection. My hair was a wreck and clothes were a mess. I was just staring at myself, I pulled a part of my yutaka to expose my shoulder and noticed that my pale shoulder was now red with a purple hickey mark was starting to form. Recovering my shoulder I hugged myself really tight everything that happened tonight was starting to hit me. Pulling on the black cloak I wrapped it around me. Turning on the sink so my cries could be muffled. I walked back till my back hit the wall, letting my body slid down I hugged my knees all while letting the tears fall. Trying to be quiet as I can be with my face pressing against my thighs. Tasting the salty tears going down my cheeks. I could have been raped they were so close too. My body being violated by some people I didnt even know and one I thought was helping me. It was all a trap and like a naive, weak little animal I fell for it. Rocking myself I am forever thankful for that masked man. He was still creepy, but I don't care he save me he was my savior. I didn't care how he found me or that he was stalking me because, he saved me from losing my innocence. His cloak is really warm and big on me. Lifting my arm examining it I noticed it was made our of really durable material like the ones made for shinobi wear. I just realised that he had to be a shinobi how else would he be able to knock out 3 grown men out so easily. That ment he was actually watching me all those times, so i wasn't losing my mind, but what does he want from me. I never had any kind of a relationship with a shinobi before, besides the ones that are passing by and stop to eat at the restaurant. Something told me I was going to see him again and I will demand some answers, I don't think he will hurt me since im no threat and if he really wanted to kill me he should have done it by now. He could also be trying to build my trust, so I can put my guard down. That means I have to be careful around him. Wiping my face with the sleeve I got up from the floor. I think I'll wash his cloak I got all my tears and mucus on it, I think you myself whilelooking down at the fabric. It smells a mixture of an earthly, iron, and burning smell. I guess it would for someone who always travels. Turning off the running water I gave myself one last look at the mirror noticing that my eyes were swollen and bloodshot from all the crying. I turning towards the bath and turned on the water. Taking a big breath I quickly got out of my clothes and stepped in to the tub. Grabbing a washcloth I made sure I rubbed my skin with soap until my skin was red.
The next day I head into work tired, I didn't get any sleep with nightmares. I keep waking up crying and shaking they felt so real. Changing my thoughts I noticed the sun was shining today, I look up at the sky making me reminisce of a familiar blue eyes. A small smile made its way onto my lips. I wonder if he still thinks of me and I started humming the small tune he played when I first heard him play. Not paying attention I felt a big force hit my left side making me almost lose my balance.
"Good morning my Cute little nee-chan!"
"Good morning onee-chan" I say regaining my balance. Manami giggles and gives my check a quick pinch.
"So how was the night shift."
"Oh, it went fine." I begin to walk again, but she grabbed my shoulder turning me around and looked at me straight in my face with frowned brows.
"You have been crying haven't you. What happened?" My eyes quickly widen and I looked at my knotted fingers.
"I had some bad dreams last night and I couldn't sleep they felt so real."
"What about?"
"Just my worst fears of being completely alone." She pulls me into a hug and tells me
"Come on, I'm here you'll never be alone Rina."
Walking into the restaurant lady chouko walked up to us.
"There you are, I am glad you girls are ok especially you Rina." She sighs in relief. Manami and I give each other with a question look?
"Why, something wrong?" Manami asks while crossing her arms.
"You haven't heard, this morning three men where found on the edge of the town beaten and killed beyond recognition. From what I heard it was very grusome." My eyes widen when I heard that. My first thought was lollipop man had something to do with this.
"I'm so glad to kami you are safe Rina." Lady chouko tells me.
"You don't think that it is going to happen more frequently. Because if that's the case I don't want you working so late." Manami points at me.
"What!?" But wh-"
"I agree with her, but I also knew how much you need this job, so give it some time I'll arrange a shift for you, so you don't have to leave so late at night. Till then here I'm giving you these for now." Lady chouko explains. I noticed she has a black bag she reaches in and pulls out what looked like a knife in a leather pocket. She also had 3 small paper balls.
"These are a kunai and smoke bombs." Both Manami and I eyes widened.
"What, how did you get this lady chouko. I thought only ninja could get these weapons and there aren't any shops around here." Manami asks.
"I know some people and it's for protection here Rina just hold it properly and they will just assume you know how to use it. These are little smoke bomb use these to get out of any emergencies." Lady chouko explains taking out the kunai showing me how to hold it then giving it to me to try, and picking up one of the paper balls. The kunai was heavier than what I expected in my hand. Shaking my head I hold it back to her I say,
"I can't accept these they are yours." Chouko pushing my hand back replies,
"It's fine I have more, take it or else I won't let you take the night shift." Giving me a look that brought chills to my spine I pulled my hand back. I put the leather cover back on the kunai and tuck it in my secret pocket along with the smoke bombs.
"Wait a minute you said you had more things, what else do you have." Manami questions raising her brow. Giving an dark chuckle lady chouko replies,
"Let's just say you don't ever want to get on my bad side girls." Making us frightened Manami and I grabbed each out for comfort while nodding out heads rapidly. Giving a sweet smile lady chouko says,
"Good now let's start a new day." After she went into the back Manami and I look at each other.
"I don't think I will ever be late again." I say
"Yeah and I won't fake being sick anymore." She says.
After work as soon as I got the feeling of being watched grabbing the kunai in my secret pocket. Looking left and right making sure no one was around I called out,
"Come out, I know you are there" There was no response I looked around me until a familiar voice spoke.
"How did you know I was fallowing you." Making me jump I pull out my kunai and try to slash him. He quickly grabbed my wrist pulled me in closer and whispered
"You shouldn't be handling things you don't know how to use,you can get hurt."he takes the kunaii from me and examines it.
"This kunai is dull and worn from fighting. where did you get it."
"I found it" I quickly say.
"Your lying skills are more terrible than this kunai,"he says in a unimpressed voice. I got red knowing I have been caught. I look to the floor and quietly whispered,
"Did you kill those men"
"Yes" he answered without hesitation. Even if they were going to rape me to be able to take someones life without a second thought frightened me.
"Why" I look up at him.
"They were trying to hurt you and you don't know if there were more before you, but they sure do look like they would do it again isn't that a good enough reason." He pointed out. He did have a point there.
"I-I want to thank you again for you help shinobi-san, but why are you fallowing me." He stiffen for a bit and grabbed my arm, before I could blink we were behind my home by the bamboo forest.
"W-woah what-t h-how we were just...now we are here." I say out of breath. My head was spinning, so this is what a shinobi is capable of. I wish I could do this so I could sleep in a little more for work pulling me out of my thoughts he says,
"Ok you want answers, I want answers, but first i want my coat back." He holds out his hand. Chucking nervously I answered,
"Umm I kinda got it dirty from crying the other night, But I am going to wash it." Nodding my head.
"It's alright." He sighed
"Why are you fallowing me"
"Who are you?" we both asked different questions at the same time.
"Who are you?" he asked again
"Wouldn't you know who I was since your the one fallowing me?"
"I want an answer." He asks again
"So do I." I cross my arms.
"I am trained to kill, so I'll ask once more who are you." He says in a deeper voice than before, it made me straighten my posture and answer without a second thought.
"My name is Rina Hiroshi daughter of Katsu and Hanae Hiroshi. Now I answered your questions and you answer mine why are you fallowing me." He stood quite for some time then finally answered,
"I suspected that you were a spy."
"Why do you think that?"he ignored my question and asked.
"My turn to ask a question. How did you know I was fallowing you if your not a shinobi." He asks. Making me think to myself for a sec. How did I know, I just felt being stared at and thought it was all in my head.
"I didn't. I just felt like something was looking at me " I whisper.
"Hmm very interesting ...why did you keep quiet, why didn't you turn me in." He tilts his masked face.
"I-I knew that you had to have shinobi skills to be able to knock out those men and if I said something I knew you would come after me or worse go after to those I care about." I then realized he asked two questions in a row
"HEY! Last time was my turn now I get to ask two questions. Why did you think I was a spy and what's your name."
"You just looked like this konichi and I suspect you were sent to spy on me, so I fallowed you around. I thought you were really good at your job, acting like an innocent girl, but seeing you are just a weak little civilian I'll be leaving you alone now. I'll come back for my coat after you wash it." He voice sounded as if there was disappointment in it. It made my heart ache does living a life of killing that lonley. I wondered why he wore that mask. I saw him starting to make his way into the forest making my mind up I ask
"Your my hero you know and I'll be always in you debt for saving me." He didn't say anything but stopped for a sec and keep walking.
"Wait, I want to ask I favor please teach me how to defend myself." I bowed at him hoping that made him stop. Even if he was a lollipop mask wearing stalker I want to help. I know the feeling of being alone and I dont want someone else felling it even if he was a stranger. I realized that he ignored my question and I never got him name. Looking up I saw he was standing in front of me.
"Why" he asks
" I don't want to be the weak little civilian girl and I want to learn to protect myself and those I care about. So please teach me and I never got your name." He didn't say anything but turned around and said over his shoulder
"There is no point of protecting your self or those you care. In this hell world it takes away everything we care for. The sooner you learn that the better." He started walking away I walked after him and called out
"Hey wait I never got your name!" Stoping one more time he says
"I am nobody and I dont want to be a somebody." Before I could ask what he ment in a blink of an eye he was gone.
