The Prisoner of the Leaf

Chapter 27: Unforunate truths

Konan looked shocked as Ino fell asleep after muttering his real name, Shikamaru must have told her- lying bastard. No he thought, shikamaru was a good man and would never break a promise like that but how else would she know. Konan needed to get to the bottom of it and decided to swap places with a clone and leaving Ino there in her room before jumping out the window and onto the street.

Konan was dedicated to finding out, looking for the Nara clan complex before successfully sneaking in and into Shikamaru's room- looming above his bed and waiting for the sheer uncomfortable feeling of someone watching you to wake up the shadow boy. Shikamaru eventually begain to shuffle awake, rubbing his eyes as Konan stood over him; glaring into his tired eyes before covering his mouth to stop him screaming. Konan could feel the panic moving through Shikamaru since he knew what he was now and knew what konan could do.

Konan: " You told her didn't you Shika~ "

Shikamaru shook his head, looking up at Konan as he tried to move his hands but felt they were too heavy to try and lift- Konan was using gravity chakra to hold them down. Shikamaru tried to pull away but Konan lifted him by the mouth and slammed him against the wall- the larger boy was holding Shikamaru against the cold bricks by his jaw.

Konan: " You told her didn't you! "

Shikamaru: " No! I didn't tell her! "

Shikamaru managed to wiggle and get his mouth free, he shouted and woke up the rest of the Nara clan- his dad rushing into the room to see Konan holding his son up to the wall, he attempted to weave jutsu to help Shikamaru but was suddenly pinned to the ground by the crushing force of gravity.

Konan: " Ino called me Jashin! How does she know Shikamaru?! "

Shikamaru: " I don't know! I never said a word! She must have found out some other way I swear! "

Konan: " I've got no choice now, You're no longer allowed to know. I will erease all memory of that event and today from you and then I'll leave and find out how INo discovered the truth! "

Konan dropped the black haired boy, weaving a strange hand sign that didn't use the regular ones ninja have been using for centuries- Konan finished weaving and a bell sound rung out throughout the town before everyone was suddenly back asleep in their original places like nothing ever happened. Konan was sat in bed with Ino, she hugged his waist and snuggled into his chest as she mumbled in her sleep, drooling a bit which Konan wiped away with a tissue.

The morning came soon after, Ino woke up and saw her boyfriend was already awake- she had no memory of what name she said before she fell asleep and smiled at him like nothing happened; she went in for a hug and latched onto him but began to worry as she didn't feel his arms around her in return.

Ino: " Babe... What's wrong? "

Konan: " Hmmm, oh nothing my love, Just a bit out of it. "

Ino: " What's on your mind my dear? "

Konan: " Love, tell me.. What name did you call me by when you fell asleep last night? "

Ino: " I don't remember, I was far too sleepy and just muttered words, I didn't think you would hear me "

Konan: " You called me Jashin... "

Ino: " Oh... so you found out that I know... "

Konan: " Yes, I did.... How? "

Ino: " You're kinda bad at hiding it, your room at the Uchiha compound had a small drawer in it that was full of symbols or symbol jewellery and when I recently saw it on the bastard that killed Asuma I knew you were either in the same religion or connected to it which was when I began to think... You were born of two clans but your story didn't make sense, the Uchiha and Kurama clans never met so how could you be born of both; plus whenever you got injured, the wound would magically vanish and you could do things no one our age should be able to do, you have a nonchalant attitude to things and certain things that should bother you don't "
