Maybe your not so bad. Maybe. (Sasuke Uchiha) Book 2

Chapter 12

                                                  It had hit....another kunia.  I glared up at Itachi, waiting for his next move.  I then felt something strange, at the pit of my stomach and I gave in to it.  I felt my mind become stronger.  I then activated my kekkei genkai. 

       I looked down to notice my body didn't have any bruises or cut.  I felt stronger and I was no longer out of breath.  What?  What the heck happened?  Itachi noticed my confused look as he said," Your beginning to learn to control it."  I glared up at him.  He made everyone feel below him, which he had a reason to but it still ticked me off.

   I jumped at him moving faster than I had thought myself capable of.  We both began moving each trying to get faster than the other.  I noticed the others just watching.  Why weren't they fighting?  "Your battle is with me."  I felt a stinging sensation as I realized I hadn't been paying attention to Itachi.  That was a dangerous thing to do.  I looked at my shoulder as the blood slowly dripped down. 

   I turned my attention back to Itachi and ignored the others.  I could not take all of them at once.  Maybe if I started using hand to hand combat, I could let him hit me.  Then when I flew far away enough, I could run.  I decided that was the only thing I could do.

  So I threw my kunia and he threw his right at mine.  I quickly began punching and aiming kicks.  I left a small opening pretending I did not realize it.  And he quickly took advantage of it.  His leg slammed into me and I flew back.  I winced but I knew I needed to  put my plan into action.  I began running again, until I got to my house.  I slammed the door open and locked it.  My breathing became heavier as I looked through the small peak in the window.  I let out a gasp as I saw Kisame walk by.  I covered my mouth and controlled my breathing.  Please don't find me.  Please.

   I felt a hand on my shoulder and I screamed as I flipped around.  It was Kakashi.  "Ryoko?  What's going on?  I heard you scream?  How are your wounds healed?"  I took a deep breath and peeked through the window again.  The darkness was all I saw.  "Kisame, Deidara, Sasori, and Itachi.  Chasing.  Kekkei genkai."  He nodded as he understood.   "Where are they?"  I shrugged my shoulders.  "I don't know. "  "Run to the Hokage's office and inform her.  She'll notify the Anbu.  Then you come straight home do you understand me?!"  I nodded my head.  I didn't have to like it but he was my father.

    I watched him leave and I got a quick drink of water.  Then I ran to the front door and opened it.  My breath was caught as I saw Itachi with people that were unfamiliar and familiar.  I tried to slam the door but the leaders hand quickly reached out and grabbed it. 

   I ran fast and didn't look back.  I reered and made a sudden move for my room and I slammed the door shut.  I locked it and ran and locked the window.  I heard poundings and knew I had a matter of seconds to figure out something.  The vents!

   I ripped it out and jumped up just as the door opened and the window broke.  "Crawl up and get her."  I knew someone was behind me so I crawled as fast as my legs would.  I looked down and saw people in the room so I crawled to the next one.  I listened carefully.  Nothing.  "Found you."  I turned and saw a figure.  I slammed down and fell to the ground.  I caught myself and looked around.  Kakashi's room.

    I locked the door and looked out the window.  Nothing I could see.  I tried to open it but it wouldn't budge.    I ounched it and the glass broke.  I whimpered as I felt the glass cut my hand.  I was about to jump out until someone jumped in.  I grabbed a kunia and stepped back.  Leader.

      He was behind me faster than I would have thought possible.  I winced as I felt something hit the back of my neck.  I fell slowly into the darkness.  How did he move so quickly?

                          I woke up to a dark cellar.  My wrists and ankles had chakra cuffs on them.  I pulled and winced as my wrists screamed in protest.  "Your awake."  I looked up to see Leader's eyes.  They were more terrifying than Itachi's and that was saying a LOT.  "You cause me a lot of trouble Ryoko."  "I'll be sure to cause more."  I felt a sharp sting in my face as it flew to the side.  "I don't think you will."  I looked up and that's when he turned the light on.  There was a little boy.  He was 5 and he was apart of the Leaf Village.  "Let him go!  Please!  Don't Don't do anything to him!"  I watched as his chilling smile appeared.  "You will learn."  I watched as he cut the boy's throat and tears began to pour out of my eyes.  "Help him!"  I watched as the little boy's terrified eyes slowly became dull. 

    My head fell down and I felt my heart ache.  This was my fault.  I would have to be the one to tell the little boy's parents that their son was killed.  I might as well should have been the killer.  His hand slipped under my chin and ripped it up.  "As for your other punishment you will stay here for a week.  If the members want to hurt you they shall.  You will learn not to disobey me or you will face dire consequences."  "I hate you."  My head flew sideways as I felt that familiar sting.  "Good." 

          He had left and kept the light on.  The little boy was still laying there.  Unmoving, unfeeling,dead.  I looked away and tried to do anything to not look at the boy.  I felt my eyes burn with tears.  NO!  I would not listen to them.  I would not cry.  I was stronger or atleast I would be.

          What felt like hours later someone came down.  I didn't look up until I heard the voice.  "Here's your lunch,un."  I looked up to see Deidara.  I read about him in the bingo book.  He used deadly clay.  I didn't say anything as he unhooked one hand for me to eat with.  I kicked it away.  "I don't want it.   You can tell them, that I'll starve myself if that's what it takes."  His eyes saddened as he sat beside me.  "There not going to kill you, so what makes you think they'll let you kill yourself hmm?" 

   I didn't answer and he attached the cuff back to my wrist.  "I didn't want to come here at first either but you'll get used to it un."  He cleaned up the blood and took the body.  I laid my head down and slowly fell asleep with thoughts of my dad.
