Darkness. This is all that I knew. For hours upon hours, screams of terror and pain echoed through the darkness that I.. I wished that I could escape from. There were on several occasions, small shuffles of feet almost too quiet for me to hear over the screams, but the darkness that I had grown to despise aided me in my hearing. How I found this overbearing darkness, I do not know, nor do I remember who I am. Who I was. Over time I had learned that a cloth was the reason for the everlasting darkness I was in. A loud creak of a metal door being opened came from my right and I stiffened as the sound of footsteps followed soon after, but unlike the countless others it had heard, these were headed straight for me.
"You say this child is child of an ANBU?" A voice asked calmly, but there was a deadly intent hidden within his voice.
"Yes, Lord Orochimaru." A voice replied almost.. Distastefully. I frowned as I zoned into their conversation. Orochimaru? ANBU? I paid attention to those two words deciding they might be useful to me later on.
"This child is quite small Kabuto.." The man, I'm guessing Orochimaru, hissed almost impatiently.
'Who are they talking about? Hmm maybe me? That would make me the child of an ANBU. Is that really who I am? If so.. Why am I here?' I snapped out of my thoughts quickly as I leaned back against my chair abruptly to avoid the kunai that was thrown towards me. A dark chuckle followed soon after the kunai bounced off the wall to my left.
"This'll be fun Kabuto.." I could imagine the grin on this guy Orochimaru's face. An audible sigh came from this "Kabuto" as the sound of feet shuffled closer to me and soon the ropes were cut from my hands and feet. I reached up to take off my blindfold, but my hand was slapped away from it quickly.
"No. Kami, you are forbidden to see the world for you do not deserve it." Kabuto stated emotionlessly and I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.
"Kami?" I signed confused which caused the boy to sigh irritation.
"That is what we shall call you, understand?" He stated annoyed and I nodded unsurely.
"Kabuto.. Can this child speak?" Orochimaru asked curiously.
"Kami is selectively mute, Lord Orochimaru." Kabuto spoke, once again emotionlessly as I stood up, almost falling over in the process.
"Then I can't wait to make it scream." This was the day my torture started.
