My body was buzzing as I came to. Feeling warm and massive pressure like I laid in a pile of heavy blankets. It was hard to breath when I opened my eye's to darkness. Something got into them so I closed them again.
Dirt?
I moved my mouth around feeling like a little wetter then normal dirt.
I felt like I was upside down in water, unsure what way was up as I tried to roll I dug and clawed and rolled when a small light came into my closed eye's and I ended up lightly digging my way out of the dirt. A small panic filled me but it was not hard to climb out of the ground once I knew my way up.
I sat with my legs still covered and I was sitting in a real shallow grave. Two dirt piles next to me. Using my mind I could not find a sense of a working mind inside. I finished climbing out seeing I was alone and sat on the soft grass looking up at the thick tree's surrounding me not understanding what was going on. I could not remember where I was, how I got here.
Last I know I was in my home. I had just noticed Kakashi wore the same socks always when I wanted to steal one of each pair but instead left a few unmatched ones slightly different around his home a little to small for his feet just to confuse him.
Looking down I was covered in mud and dirt and a little blood from small cuts that were no longer bleeding. How was I buried alive and left here? Did they think they killed me, I can not remember a fight let alone a person.
Looking at the two dirt piles next to me made my heart sink and give more questions. I could see from here no one was alive. I dusted away some dirt but they were in a grave much deeper then mine.
I stood up on shaky legs like I had been down there for some time. Finally noticing I was missing my scroll, my weapon pouch and forehead protector. My hair tie then broke as a mess of dirty messy matted hair came falling across my face and back making me sigh.
I stood up and strolled slowly pressing on passing tree's. After a minute I was still lost in woods with no road. I looked up and jumped high into the tree's as far as I could. I came to the farthest I could safely stand on the highest tree around and peered into the large forest in every direction no distinction to the direction I can even go.
I had nothing on me, food, water, not even a bush of edible berries near me. I was starving and my mouth dry.
At least my main power was inside my head that was pounding in pain.
I bit my finger and smashed it onto the ground, out popped a small Koala chewing a leaf in his mouth. It looked up at me startled before it gave a nod and I slid my mind into his.
"Whoa man." His small high pitched words and tone made me smile.
"Where am I?" I asked.
"I don't know." He sniffed a fallen leaf. "No where tasty my man, what on earth is this." He used his back leg to shove a small stick with strange leaves away like it was poison.
"Where do I go?"
"I don't know." He looked up with squinted eyes before shoving the leaf back in its mouth. "Try that way." He pointed behind me. "Or that way." He pointed in front of me. I just sighed and held back from smacking my head. He sniffed the air. "Well I smell something that way." He pointed to my left.
"Your a lot of help." I sighed with a small amused smile.
"Ya well I am just hungry." And he disappeared in a puff of smoke.
They have never been remotely helpful.
It took a while walking in the direction he smelled something when I came to a dusty town. I found a well in the heart of the village. I picked up a rock and dropped it. Took a second when I heard it hit solid ground.
Walking through it was old and broken and abandoned for years. I feel I should not wait even if the sun was setting and headed out quickly down the overgrown but obviously old road.
The forest was pitch black around me when I finally found a path that looked normal, used and headed east in hopes I am going the right way. Then I almost missed the trap laid on it. I skipped over the wire awkwardly just to land on another, I got ready for a log or an array of weapons but nothing so I continued on confused and watching the world around me more carefully.
I heard the crack of sticks, the mumble of hushed voices and I was not surprised when screaming men came flying out of the forest with swords and fancy sticks surrounding me. I counted about nine as I paused.
They looked me over like I was an easy target as I slid my hands into my shorts pockets and looked around slowly. A large man stepped forward to my left with a creepy smile as I heard someone on the other side say he wants me first while another cat called me.
"Hand over all you got little lady." His deep and unsettling voice spoke, I checked him over and he was dirtier then me.
"I got nothing." I spoke back calmly pulling my pockets out and then sliding them back inside. A few stepped forward. "Back off you all stink." I blankly spoke to them but the smell was overpowering they really smelled bad. A few laughed some got offended the leader stepped even closer.
"You do not talk to a man that way, a small weak girl like you should only speak when spoken to." I used my hand in my pocket to shock his system angry inside but unshowing. He fell forward with a scream and then they all backed up looking at us confused.
He sat on his knees and wiped drool of his face confused and suddenly smelled a little like pee making me smirk down at him. "So you are nothing." I spoke.
He was getting on his feet fast to attack me but I was behind him, I kicked him hard in his ass as he stumbled forward. Gripped the wrist with the sword and tossed him at his friends. One blocked the sword but it sliced his arm as he barreled into another two.
They all ran at me so I jumped into the sky, with a flip I pulled kunai from the earth throwing them at four of them. Most dodged barely but one fell backwards deeply cut another I made them shortly chase another running away and I landed on my feet bringing up more like a halo around my head as my kunai hit him in his leg making him fall down and cry in pain.
I dodged a sword in a flip gripping the mans leg and making him fall on his ass while I got on my feet with a low duck before slamming my foot into the balls of the one who wanted me first for revenge and I kicked him hard, his scream was so loud in the quiet forest.
It was fast as I punched dodged and kicked them all away until I stood alone over them all on the ground.
I walked over gripping the neck of the shirt of the main man pulling his face to me in a squat. "Where am I?" I spoke calm and threatening.
"You are on Ouza Island." I was confused as I don't know it. "A large island south west of the Land of water." He stuttered out with big eye's. I dropped him as I few were trying to get up before pausing and watching me walk away. "Not a lot shinobi come this way." I heard.
"At least not from the docks." Another spoke I heard faintly, I then moved fast out of the area at top speeds.
I have never been here before.
How did I get here?
I was careful until I found my way to a small trade town along the ocean. People here looked normal. A spotted a few mist shinobi making me glad I did not carry around my own symbol in this place. I feel they may kill me on sight, we are not friends and I heard horror stories from that place.
Boats scatted the docks as people moved things to and from them.
I stepped into the town casually walking, a few strangers looked at me and I assume it was because I was so dirty but sadly there was no hot spring or clothing shop to change that here. I walked, leaned and eavesdropped to find a boat heading towards the land of fire or at least the land of waves.
I snuck onto one from under the water climbing into a porthole cleaning the dirt off me, I also snuck into the packed kitchen stole food and water and hid in a closet for what felt like ages before we even started to move.
The waves on the boat made me feel sick I have never been on one before. To not puke on food and wood I walked out slowly checking for people and walked up the steps like I belonged. Coming to the deck it was packed of men worrying me as I would stand out I almost ran back but I spotted a women.
She looked badass and tough and made me feel safer.
Then another drinking beer on a barrel with two men.
They looked like what I was told pirates would. The outfits, the attitude. I peeked up to see the flag but there was nothing. I wonder what that means.
I was drawn to the open sea, the mid day sun still made the water look black as wave after wave knocked us around. A man with an overly large midriff but thick arms stood next to me eying me over.
I stayed blank and looked out into the water.
Shit.
"Do I know you?" He spoke sticking a smoke in his mouth and lighting it.
"I am Kei." I spoke coldly to blend in. "I feel flattered to not be known, who are you?"
"I am the captain." He gave this I caught you smile as he puffed in. I was still as I watched him exhale. "Ah I girl like you is always welcome on my ship. Stray." His eye's scanned me down to my feet and back up with an approving smile. He landed back into my eye's and looked my face over cautiously like he knew me.
I just stayed still but he seemed to size me up and he almost looked worried. "Why is a girl like you hiding out on my boat." He leaned on the rail and looked out as I did. "I have a feeling you could destroy it in a short minute."
"I don't know what you mean." I said back pressing my tongue to the top of my mouth in a flirt, that made his eye's crinkle and smile. He nodded at me looked around. "I got some hot heads, let's say I just added you." He winked at me and walked away. "Watch out for Caady." He looked back and pointed at this tall and lanky man pulling on some rope. "He can be a little handsy, I am sure nothing you can't handle."
He then looked back and paused looking me over before he waved me down below deck. He handed me a tiny towel, an outfit and shoved me into a tiny bathroom that smelled so bad and into the shower so small I could not turn in it.
But man it was nice to get cleaner even in here.
He did not seem to care where I was going or why.
The outfit was more normal for this ship, it was so cool and I am stealing it with its belts and cleavage.
I was unnoticed by the rest after that as I enjoyed the ocean, come the sunset I climbed up the sail with the ropes like a normal person to not show my hand and got the best view. It was breathtaking like the sun would never set as it faded into the dark waters.
The quiet and the darkness once it set was a memory in its own. It was never-ending with no light, I heard a noise to look down and spot a dark figure was climbing up.
"Hey I thought it was my turn on watch." He climbed into the small bucket like area, he swung with the waves like it was normal showing off his muscles. This man was drop dead gorgeous. His light brown hair stuck up. Not as high as Kakashi but a little close. His deep blue eye's were stunning but that smile.
Bright perfect teeth and the way his mouth moved was so hot. He looked maybe twenty as I caught him checking me out as well. I was strangely silent, he had this air that pulled me in.
"I saw you earlier." He smiled as me knowingly as he shoved into the basket pressing into my side due to the size. "Don't worry." He did a handsign and a bright ball floated in his hand lighting up like a flood lamp. He tossed it towards the front of the boat where when it hit the water it shinned bright illuminating the path. "I am not one." He smirked at me as he stared into the abyss.
He looked at me like it was so amazing to have such an ability that I should be impressed.
It was interesting and useful on this boat it seems so I just smiled.
He sat on the tiny edge of the basket and placed a leg behind me to the other side blocking me in as he smiled at me looking over my clothes. I still could not speak. "You seem green." He stunningly smiled at me in a kind way, my eye's on his mouth again.
He waited and it was getting awkward.
"I am, I am not used to the ocean." I spoke before I felt maybe I should have not said that so I side eyed him worried I outed me.
"Feeling sick huh?" He looked out with a chuckle. "Well it is almost a week ride passed the land of waves to the south of the land of fire, you picked the wrong boat to start. The water is rough newbie."
"Good thing I have such a nice view." I looked down to his half open chest and back to his face in a flirting hint. His laugh was deep and exciting making me give a small awkward smile. Why does this man make me so nervous.
I was pulled into his eye's and laugh and I wanted to flirt more when someone yelled and he looked down from the post. His face blanked and looked calm bringing Kakashi's face into my head.
They are alike.
Is this what he could look like? What is his smile, is it bad?
He made another ball and tossed it to the side as a large wave hit us and gripped the basket tight. He tossed it into the water where the light showed the largest shark I have ever seen swimming beside us and then bashed into the ship.
So that first one was not a wave?
They all scrambled and I stood curious at what I could do.
Even if I could use power I noticed I was weak to a enemy in water. No earth, a little wind. No weapons. I slid down quickly as no one was watching and moved to help the best way I could as a person.
Once the beast swam away I found my way into a small room where most women slept and laid down for a sleep. The first one in two days.
"You can not beat me." The pretty but wasted women screamed as a thick man and her were in a arm lock for an arm-wrestle in a room designated for drinking made like a bar. She was winning but it was tough. I smiled and watched in the back sipping a beer feeling a little tipsy loving the atmosphere of a ship.
"She always wins." Mr pretty known as Kuro leaned next to me watching. "She fakes it to make it seem like they have a chance but nope. They never do." He smiled. "Girl is a freak." There was cheers and yells and people chugging when she won.
I just giggled and sipped my drink when the man flipped the table and yelled that she must be a Shinobi masquerading as girls are weak. She just counted her money and smiled ignoring him.
He looked ready to really brawl when the captain laughed placing a hand on his shoulder, the man froze, unsure if he was scared. Perhaps that man is some form of terrifying.
"She is strong." I heard to my left.
"Please anyone could beat him." I joked to my barely new friend but the man heard me and snapped his eye's on me. "Oh no." I joked again and he nudged me.
"Oh boy." He spoke at the same time.
He called me out as people got quiet. I chugged what was left sat down as he fixed the table and gripped his hand. I waited for his strength. He was strong but please. I pressed lightly holding us in the middle unsure if I should just let him win.
I pretended he got me and faked pain but then would push him back. Everyone was on the edge in silence when I almost won but he shoved all into me and I let him. He slammed my hand so hard.
Cheers and woo's erupted, people patted me saying I did great as he was strong.
I grabbed another large mug of beer and walked into the calm air of the deck. I heard steps after me and I ignored looking out into the most darkest dark there could be. He stepped next to me and it was that guy Cody? Cony? He wrapped his arm around me sending creep slivers rocking my body and my hair stood up. I held back an urge to knock him right off the boat and just stepped aside.
"Please don't" I sipped.
"Come on baby." He came closer grabbing my ass and again it took a lot to hold back and stepped away with a glare. The tiny amount of light hanging off the ship illuminated his face and made him even more creepy looking.
I was about to speak when Kuro yelled that someone was searching his bag in his room and he ran off. I looked him over as he took his spot. "Thanks'." I spoke softly and we stood there quietly.
We hung around sitting on the deck talking swaying over the pitch black waves, no moon tonight but the stars were so bright and vast it was peaceful and a little romantic.
He was cool, from the land of rain and left before the war. So he was older then I thought and was stranded younger then he should have been. He was charming and funny and he was so much fun. He barley uses his chakra, just a normal person with sword skills and loved the ocean as it was free unlike a Shinobi nation.
That night I had a dream.
I was tied up as yellow wolf like eye's stared into mine and I could not move from the hand on my shoulder. He was trying to get into my head I could feel it, almost like my own jutsu. Due to the fact I also had that ability I could keep him out as we battled each other that way.
The pressure of our minds I could hear a few words now and then. Most meant nothing one was saying something about finding out and another about breaking in. He shut his eye's and the pressure lifted. He then stopped touching me and my body could move again.
He glared down at me as I brought my hands together for the wind when he smashed his fist into my head as a long sharp weapon came towards my neck.
I woke up startled the boat weaving I felt a little sick. I sat there pulling down the blanket and rubbing my head my feet dangling off the top bunk. That felt real. Is that what happened to me? Who was he, what did he want and then why am I even alive.
I could not sleep trying to remember. I sat there and focused inside my head, if I can get others memory's can I get mine?
"There is three of you." I heard as a fuzzy picture came, the mans yellow eyes on me again and then my mind got seared with light.
I feel horrible, I am called skilled with my mind powers yet I was taken down? Who is this wolf man.
It was still dark when I walked on deck. There was a women and man playing shogi at a small table and that was all.
"Kei." I heard and looked up as Kuro waved me up. I nodded with a small smile glad to see him and climbed up after.
"Do you not sleep?" I joked climbing into the basket with a laugh.
"Unless a cute women is next to me." He smirked and then looked away. "Don't need a lot." I think he was flirting with me.
"I fight in my sleep." I lied.
"Ah, it is the fighting before hand." He smiled leaning on the rope. He did not look away but it hit me what he meant and I blushed looking at my feet before he laughed deeply and called me cute.
"Where are you from, the land of waves?" He squinted at me.
"I um am from um." I rubbed my hair. Oh I can not say, if I say land of fire he might notice I am here for only a short run. I don't think I can out me as a shinobi as the words about them I have heard on this ship were not that great. "Yes, the land of waves." I nodded. "I lived alone and wanted to adventure."
"This is the best adventure." He smiled looking out. "The ship is my home."
"It is pretty decent." I spoke softly. He leaned back and looked into the blackness, the moon hovering over nothing lighting up the sky. "I have never been on another land but my own." I spoke with truth. "The last time it was close enough to be somewhere else I was not free to roam." I said about the war without saying.
"There is nothing more free then this. We have no ruler, we do what we want, go where we want, take and sell what we want." He stood up on the edge of the bucket and pulled on a rope flying almost sideways and I was enthralled at how free he really did look.
So they might be pirates.
Curious I followed. I stepped up unafraid as he eyed me curious and on the opposite side I gripped the rope and fell backwards. I then Shoved off my feet hard and he squeaked for me as I swung around the basket and him, tying the ropes together. He gripped mine and pulled me in but I wanted to impress him.
I flipped and grabbed another before swinging around the sails and landing on top of one on the heavy wood. Letting it go as I stood there watching him, I waved him over. He smiled at me and looked around before he laughed and shook his head.
I ran along the wood grabbing another and swung back towards him. He moved catching me in his arms and we fell into the basket his back hitting the side in an awkward way.
I was weirdly so excited and full of energy, his warm hands touching me making me notice how long it has been since anyone really has, Itsuki.
He pressed his lips into mine, his hand landing on the back of my head. I was startled and froze all thoughts cascaded out of my head and it was just him. I gave in and kissed him back. It was hot, passionate and so good. This man knew how to kiss and it was so much fun that I lost time. His hand ran down my shirt making me notice what was going on and jumped up startled.
He laughed looking up at me giving me a head shake like I was too sweet. I am all bark I see.
"You don't know me." I spoke pulling my hair.
"Please, everyone here has something no one knows, we are seamen." He stood up. The sun was rising over the water. I felt embarrassed and kind of wanted to do that again.
I looked down in thought on if I should.
"Best part about this this ship is we don't get in the way of the shinobi and their issues." He looked out as my eye's glanced over at him worried. "Don't you just hate them?" He was blank and calm.
I laughed I could not stop it. A small short laugh but I was stunned and I could not stop it. I shook my head and when he looked confused I just pressed my lips into him lightly thinking you are going to hate me. So I am stealing a good kiss under a bad pretense but whatever.
Then again that is probably what he means.
I pulled back and I ran my hand into his spiky hair and pressed it around. He looked at me confused and entertained as I squished it. "Stop it girl." He joked. "You might make me try more then a kiss." I pulled back with a laugh and slid down the rope to go back inside. "Goodnight." I heard as I slid and bit my lip excited.
Damn that felt nice. To feel wanted, touched. I really liked that.
Come late morning after a short sleep I walked into the sun, the deck filled with joy and loud voices. I could see the land passing by. Maybe hit land within the hour, I was both excited and sad. He is right, living on a boat is something interesting but I wanted to go home.
This week with that hot strange man gave me a boost in confidence I needed. It is a memory I will never forget and I hope when he thinks of me it will not be for what I am about to do.
I also need to find out why I 'died', How long it has been. What mission I was even on. My home, my bath.
"This is the best dock, the land of fire is very wealthy." Kuro spoke leaning up next to me along the rail. "We sell our stuff, drink our hearts out, gather more and head on down towards the land of wind." He turned around looking down on me. "The next section between fire and wind is the best view."
"Really?" I spoke softly kind of sad I wont see it. I looked at his pretty smile again when a guilt hit me. I looked down. The dock in view, the cliff side and tree's we passed were tall as the water bashed into the rocky shore.
"You look scared." He spoke looking down on me. "Hiding from someone?"
I stood up with a smile. "You." I scanned his pretty eye's and then his hot mouth. "You made my trip amazing." I faked a smile that reached my eye's and he stared down confused. "I hope you don't hate me."
He started to speak as I looked around not being paid attention to. I hopped over the rail as he squeaked out a 'what are you doing'. I landed on the rocky waters and ran towards the cliff side.
I jumped up landing sideways on the cliff and finally I looked back at the boat. He stood leaning over the rail staring at me. I blew him a kiss before I ran up the wall and headed into the forest.
I stole food and water from a town on the way back now knowing where I was.
What felt like a non stop couple day run I walked into the village through the large gate tired, thirsty and hungry but glad to be home. There was Kotetsu and Izumo at the gate. "Kei?" One of them asked. I never knew them enough to know who was who as they were always together.
"Ya hi." I said calmly. "I don't got an id." I walked towards them in the booth.
"Oh, I thought you were here." The other spoke. That confused me but his eye's glanced my outfit and he smiled at me like I was being funny making me forget what he said. Pirates and ninja's have way different styles.
I walked to go talk to the Hokage like one does after a mission but he was not here right now and the assistant told me to come back in a few hours. I headed home to shower stopping by a ramen shop. I stuffed my face with drink after drink.
I felt so sleepy as I slowly walked up the steps to my apartment. Moving to open my door I peeked at Kakashi's wondering if he was home when I heard the laugh of girl. I small smile crossed my face.
Does Kakashi have a girl in there?
I bit my lip and pressed my ear to the door.
"Ya so what is the Anbu doing these day's?" She asked, she sounded familiar and strange at the same time.
What an odd question.
"I forgot that I needed to talk to someone that watches over the archives, who should I talk to?" That made me furrow my eyebrows. Is someone trying to play Kakashi? Please. I almost laughed. Wrong man my friend.
His deep voice made me happy to hear it again after a week or so. "Ask the Hokage for that, I don't know." He sounded normal like it was a casual conversation. I pulled up my hand and slid into his mind.
"Do you need bad date night help?" I asked with a smile. "I can say I need you to come clean my shower."
"Kei?" His voice sounded stiff. "But I am talking to you right now, and this women is obviously not in my head."
I heard the women just talk his ear off trying to sneak him into saying some kind of information. A style of talking and conversion I know well.
"What?" I stepped back and ran down the steps not leaving his head before I climbed up the side of his house and into his big bedroom window. "I knew something was off." He spoke but I moved fast. "Never would think this, she has a familiar style to your power. I felt her try to get into my head when I first saw her in your home with the door open. She failed I thought it felt off and I was right."
She was in my home, who is this person?
I quietly peeked out the bedroom and seen they were in the part of the kitchen that I could not see from here so I snuck to the wall and pressed my back to it. "Is she facing me?"
"No."
I peered around, Kakashi sat there with food on his plate. He could see me but did not look. There I sat across from him. My hair up, my forehead protector around her neck. My scroll and weapon pouch on her thigh as she talked a lot and then I looked away.
"She has been here four day's." He spoke. Well if this person buried me it would take a bit of time to get here from where I was. "I heard her destroying your home like she was looking for something."
"Ah smart Kakashi."
"I also followed her as of the last two day's while she walked along oddly. Not leaving her alone." He spoke.
"So what is this, a date?" I joked.
"Kind of, just trying to pry out what was wrong with you. I think this person learned a lot from your home."
"I think I know his face. I think he has the same mind power I do. He tried to get into mine I think but I can not remember and I woke up in a grave."
Kakashi then spoke back to her, she tried to get her him to speak but he then turned it on her. The air then changed and she stopped blabbering. "Oh, look at the time." She spoke. "I needed to go talk to Itsuki."
I was stunned as I paused she even said is name wrong, she stood up as the chair squeaked and I ran hiding behind Kakashi's bathroom door. So, she read my love notes. Even if I was not here, that would have outed this person.
Once his door slammed from the wind I ran out pressing my ear to the door as he walked towards me doing the same. "She is going into your home." He whispered and I dropped our link. "Who is she?"
"I have no idea." I turned my head our faces inches from each other pressed to the door. "I can not remember what happened. But I woke up so far away."
"What was your mission?"
"I have no idea."
"How does this person know who and where you live?"
"Again unsure." I spoke sadly. "Well it wants serious information on the village, that I know."
"Ya I noticed that." He spoke back before standing up straight. "Looks like I will be stalking the fake you, got to know why this person is here before we lock them up." He looked me over. "The transformation is top notch. She smells like you, speaks like you.
"Don't let it be known Itsuki is dead." He nodded at me. "I don't think they got into my head very well if they don't know that." I stepped back. "Don't let them touch you." I looked at him. "The basic memory I have is that he can make you stiff and unable to move."
He pushed me behind the door and opened his. "She is leaving." He walked out leaving me alone in his home. Confused I waited before I chased them down to stalk.
She walked around the town alone, unsure where Kakashi was as I peeked from behind a chimney, she was slow and walked everywhere not sure how long I stalked her for.
Pausing in front of the library she looked around and headed to the door when someone came out as she slid to the side.
That was when Kakashi was casually walking book in hand looking lost in it. His hand in his pocket when he paused. "Kei." He sounded shocked I smiled at his acting. "Guy was looking for you." She paused looked at the door and back to him as he stood there his one eye bright like nothing was wrong.
I do know there is a back room in the library made only for the few that knew so it was best not to let him search even if the door was hidden by genjutsu.
That was when Guy came rushing by giving his large smile. "There you are Kei." He waved at her and she looked at him confused before faking like she knew who this one was.
"Well sorry I need to go find someone." She spoke letting it known again she knows nothing as Guy stood right there. I think this person steals identities and uses a mind skill like mine to get it down. Someone from far off.
I slid my mind into both of them. "I think it is a mist shinobi." It was the area I was closest to so.
"Come, you said you would help me." Guy waved at her, she looked confused.
"Can we postpone." She pointed at the door. "I really need to get something."
"Come." He grabbed her hand and dragged her off.
I landed next to Kakashi hiding in the tree's as Guy made her hold the undies of the larger old man and women that lived in this shack.
"They needed help to clean." Guy started hand washing a dress in the small man made pond like it was years ago with water and a rock.
She looked down like she was either gonna faint or be sick dropping them on the floor and glaring at Guy from behind. She looked around and moved to reach out and touch him. Kakashi and I got tense ready to fight.
Her hand moved to his shoulder when he jumped up suddenly knocking her back. "I forgot the soap." He bumbled off to the left and picked up a large container making me chuckle. He then looked at her as she got her balance. "Here." and tossed it at her making her trip again and catch herself she almost could not hold it up.
"Another mind skill avoiding the physical." Kakashi spoke.
"With her powers I can understand why." I mumbled back.
"How was your mission?" Guy asked with that smile and moved back to rub the dress on the rock. Yes make him tell me what it was please.
"Fine."
We need her to fill in the blanks, my family however good might have real issues getting in deep. This persons mind took me down in some way.
"Where did you go?" Guy asked her.
"You know, around." She shrugged picking up a large old and holy pair of tighty whities with her fingers and cringed glaring at it.
"Tell me all about it." He was so loud and so innocent looking. "I was told you went near the land of water?"
"Um ya." We were getting no where as she looked at Guy again, around and moved behind him casually before diving at him reaching out with her hand. We got tense ready to pounce if she hurts him. A small blue glow on his head not making his body stop moving.
Guy did look out straight for a second as I squinted my eyes confused.
"Sorry, forget I was here." I heard her say. So no information. I then shot my chakra into hers, making her legs stop working and she dropped more gracefully then me.
Guy stood up and looked down as we landed next to her. She looked up at me started and confused before glaring at me. "How are you alive?" She stood up not looking away before she glanced around. "He said he killed you."
"Who?" I asked looking at me. She did not speak. "Who is with you?" I tried to look threatening.
She shut her mouth and glared up at Kakashi. "Should have known, I just figured you liked her, my mistake."
"Who is with you?" Kakashi spoke calmly but scary.
"Kakashi!" Guy yelled startled and we all looked at him. "My... wait, why is there two Kei's?" He got serious. "What one is Kei." He was ready to fight. His face moved between us before he grabbed his head looking around. "Where am I?"
"Save me." She cried and pointed at me. "She also took over his mind." She used him as a shield, I rolled my eye's at her but he stood in front ready to save me, kind of sweet.
Kakashi just placed his arm around my shoulder making me smile. "Guy, remember that day." He looked down and back to him. "Well maybe to much of a secret." He looked down at his lower half and back up again. "Your pant's."
Guy froze and his face went bright red confusing me. "Do not stop." I spoke at Kakashi moving slightly to drop his arm. "You can not not finish that story." I was scanning his masked face with interest and big eye's.
Guy noticed me and then shifted for her to be in the open again. Guy looked at her and her face dropped pissed, then we all just stared at her and she just seemed butthurt blowing a bang out of her face.
"Who was with you?" Kakashi asked again.
"His name was Kuro." She looked away. "Some pirate that wanted money." My whole body froze as I stared at her unbelieving.
They all looked at me confused on my shocked face. I ran over it all again and again, did he know me?
They tried to get more out of her but nothing and she still looked like me, glaring at the dirt sitting on her ass with her hands now tied up. Not a word.
I snapped out of it. "Well, time to meet my family." I spoke reaching out and pulling her to her feet from her tied wrists. She looked up at me kind of worried.
We started to walk her when she spun fast and ran away. Guy was faster shoving her back towards us. She tried to run two more times but we needed her alive to really know if she was alone or not.
She tried to fight and stood no chance.
"We get it from your head and you may die or you talk to us and we lock you up." I casually spoke like it was nothing. "Sometimes the people we get into never get all there brains back, you know."
We walked her into the building, dark walls, creepy echo. It even fills me with fear and I am not the one being interviewed. She stopped moving. "Okay." He breathed. "I know this is not going to be nice." The look dropped and there he stood.
A short blonde man with yellow eye's that looked wolf like. Long nails and packed body. "I did not stand a chance with you." He looked at me. I saw the leader of the interrogation force not far off hidden in the shadows.
Damn he is creepy.
"I needed information on the hidden leaf. I know the Yamanka is similar to my clan. The best I could do was take over one." We all stood there as he spoke. "I am famous for my clones, we can get into heads and learn how to be them, very rarely is it noticed."
It is a good one.
We got him in a chair and he continued the talk. He made a mission asking for a lone Yamanka for the land of waves. Showing off the similar skill could bridge the gap if someone needed my skills.
I was not alone he said, I was with two other girls that were dead before me making my heart drop for them and worry. He then needed to get into my mind and it started a war of the minds. Due to the force the best he could do was accidently wipe my memory trying to get into my memory.
I was stronger then he figured.
He hired pirates to help because he was a lone ninja and wanted to sell information on the fire to the mist, mostly because they stole his son and made him do it, if he got good information he would also get paid and set his kid free.
The way he said that sounded fake unsure if he was lying or he holds money over a child. I mean who would not put kid first in a sentence like that.
He payed the pirates to help take us out and burry us. Unsure how they beat two female ninja's and did they know who I was?
He must have known, the captain sure did didn't he?
He made that man freeze at the arm wrestle didn't he, it was him.
Did Kuro snake a kiss like I did under false pretenses. Honestly I just smiled making them look at me funny. I feel less guilty. That smile. Maybe they are the reason I was alive and in a shallow grave. Okay, I like them more even if I am still so confused.
After dealing with that mess my family took over. They started talking about how to help him but also they could not let him go. He lied about a kid, I was not wrong. He just wanted money.
It got switched into a higher section in the interrogation and something about protection of the village.
Then the Hokage and the information on the poor women I was with.
My family unlocked all the information from my mind. With the help of the pirates, Kuro, the Captain and two more I did not talk to took us down.
They took down my teammates fast and quick and silent, I had not been next to them at that moment and then when he got into my head and the captain snuck up freezing my body in place. We then had a war of minds trying to break the other.
It took a while but not that interesting. He wiped the memory of the mission completely by accident trying to get into my head. The pirates then knocked me out with the blunt of an ax.
After the drama I headed home for a long bath and shower. I slept in the softest bed that I missed.
A crash woke me up.
I groaned opening my eyes smushed into the many pillows. "What now." I sighed. I could not move before I slowly rolled out of the bed my feet landing on the floor and almost rolled off like I had no stomach muscles.
I grabbed my shit on the way out and for speed just hopped out my window.
Outside was a fight between two ninjas startling me. I jumped up on a roof as one tossed fireballs at the other one. I was not alone confused and watching the fight between them no one coming to stop them.
Then again that was the police's job before.
With a strong fist the taller one missed his head, his fist hitting the roof below them shattering it in pieces. I moved fast snatching up some poor old slow women and darting her out of the way of shingles and wood.
Many people were running away but most pausing to watch.
"Thanks'." I nodded and mumbled okay as I ran back.
I got in range and rubbed my messy hair with a moan unsure what to do, do I do something?
The stupid flame guy was getting his ass handed to him with Tai.
"Go back to sleep." I looked over at Kakashi that stood next to me casual and calm.
I rolled my eye's. "I wish." I sighed looking back as he was getting his footing. "What do we even do?" I pulled up my hand signs to do anything but he grabbed my hand and pushed it down.
"Anbu will deal with it now." He spoke back, I looked him over like 'hey, your Anbu, do something'.
"You tried to kiss her." The man yelled his fists combined together he brought them on the fire guy's head, he barley dodged this time I gripped Kakashi's hand as he shifted and it was still on mine.
"Wait." I whispered, he looked down. "It just got interesting." He looked over rolling his one eye but I just smiled at the drama his hand between mine.
"Please I saw her first." He yelled back wiping blood off his face.
"Ya, two years ago." He yelled back and I was stunned with interest as they moved around. "She was mine."
"Oh my." I said.
"She did..." The one who kissed his girl spoke but the man's fist hit him hard cutting him off and his body rolled away.
"She did what?" I pressed my tongue to the roof of my mouth. "Oh Kakashi, what did she do?" I gripped his hand tighter not noticing.
I never got an answer, they did not speak again and then Anbu came. "Damn." I said sad about the drama not getting an answer.
I just slowly walked home needing coffee, Kakashi was next to me quickly and walked along at my slow pace. The night air felt nice with him by my side.
"What do you think happened?" I smiled. "Was she mad, did she rat, were they friends?"
"I don't care." He spoke back making me shut up, ya he is not the person to ask. I walked next to him quietly, peering at his masked face. I wonder what is under there, that pirate's hair was similar, could his mouth be?
"What?" He looked down on me annoyance in his eye but it just made me smile.
"Your just such a drama queen." I looked out straight. "Just wont shut up." We walked silently. "I got so much popcorn and some movies, want to have a girls night?"
He looked down on me confused saying, I am not a girl, with his eye.
"We can put your undies in the freezer and play truth or truth."
"The freezer?" He sounded startled.
"Ya I hear that is a thing, I don't know why I never had one before." I sighed.
"What movie?" He spoke like he felt sorry for me.
"Ah it is some chick flick." I smiled up at him.
"No." And he was gone.
A small amused noise came out of me. "Ah well, back to that wonderful bed." I almost skipped home.
