Time: 3:00.
Finally asleep. The nighttime has always been your favorite time for many reasons. It's calming, mysterious, and the perfect time for stealth missions like assassinations. This night, in particular, is abnormally calm, abnormally silent. That is, until a soft noise wakes you up.
Lying on your right side for the past couple hours had made your arm numb, so sitting up is rather challenging. You hear a faint shuffling noise under your bed. Sharing a room with Konan, you don't want to wake her up so you left the noise alone... until 5 minutes later when you hear shuffling again. You look down on the floor and see something slithering out from under your bed.

Holy shit that's a snake!

You kill the snake pretty easily and inspect it.

What the hell is a snake doing in here? I haven't seen one in like a year.

You quietly laugh at yourself, thinking about your friend again.

YN: *sigh* "I wish I could see him again."

While looking over the snake—or what was left of it after you were done with it—you found something that looked like a camera.

What the hell is this?

You set the camera in your closet, planning on showing the Akatsuki tomorrow just in case they know anything about it.

There's a wolf at your door
There's a hound at your heels
There's a snake in your bed
Tell me, how does it feel?
