"Give that back thief!"

A store manger chases me down a street waving a broom above his head. In my hands I held a small bag of gummy bears. I dodge barrels of wheat and jump over tables with fine silks and jewelry. People stared at the muddy clothes flying past them. None of them bother to help the fat baker try to ketch the thief. They all knew me and my actions all too well. The land of mist wasn't the friendliest of places but at least we had good food. I dash into an ally but something grabs my shirt before I'm able to make an escape. I thrash around even dropping the sweet gummy bears onto the ground.

"Let go jerk!"

My voice is raspy and tired. Sure I can run but even I adventaly run out of breath. The hand holds firm onto the back of my clothes. Finally I slump in defeat. It's not the first time I've gotten caught and gone to jail. The cubby baker turns the corner huffing and gasping for breath.

"Tha...n....k y..o.u so much sir. this thief has been stealing from me for weeks."

The baker reaches down and picks up the bag of gummys. Once again he thanks the man then turns and leaves walking back to the store. I hang their by the grimy shirt a little annoyed we were still standing there.

"Well are you going to take me to jail or not?"

The stranger doesn't say a word for a long time. By now I'd normally make my escape but something inside me feels like I know this guy from somewhere. I turn and look at his face. The biggest mistake I could make in my entire life. My black lifeless eyes meet the red sharingan. The strangers eyes bore into mine. My body becomes overwhelmed with exhaustion. I can't fall asleep no matter what. I continue to stare into the red abyss fighting the urge to black out. After what feels like days my body can't strain anymore. My head slumps onto my chest as I'm flung over the strangers shoulder. My eyes shut and all turns to darkness.
