Chapter Two

A new (forced) journey....

"Last time I left a place I called home, I didn't get to say goodbye. Looks like it's happened again"

:::

DAICHI AND TEAM 7 FINALLY MADE IT TO THE SMALL RUNDOWN PLACE MIWA CALLED HOME,after endless alleyways and shortcuts in the seemingly small distance back from the village hall. Team 7 grimaced at the sight of Miwa's home for the last three years, Kakashi stopped Sakura from making her thoughtless comments. Daichi walked right through the crumbling doorway, muttering under his breath something about Miwa saying she had it fixed. He walked through her small sitting room, or rather the room with three chairs and a table in it with the kitchen off to the side.

He made it to Miwa's small room and placed her gently down on her makeshift bed and gently rested her head down on her stiff pillow before pulling her rough blankets over her body. He moved out her room until her door away and looked at the four man squad who had made themselves home in Miwa's sitting room/kitchen.

Daichi sighed heavily and rubbed his face, "Go on then" He breathed heavily "Ask away" Sakura's face light up when she heard that all of her questions could be answered, Daichi noticed Sakura's expression and held in a groan. That child was a nosy one.

"She's from a hidden village" Sakura bluntly stated with an innocent look on her face "Which one is it?" Naruto gaped at Sakura.

Daichi stared Sakura down for a moment before gesturing to her Hitai-ate "Konohagakure, that's what the file said when we rescued her, but she dosnae see that way" Kakashi frowned when Daichi mentioned the file, while Sakura was deeply confused.

"What? Konoha? How come we don't know her?" Naruto spoke up loudly with a frown on his face.

"She hates your village, naebody went lookin fur her, she was in a horrible place. I'm glad she dosnae remember it."

"What happened?" Kakashi asked, Daichi looked over at him, Daichi was about to respond but stopped when Miwa made a noise which made him glance back and stare as she curled herself into a ball before he turned back around.

"We found her three years ago" Daichi began slowly as he closed his eyes, the images from three years ago still haunt him. "We'd been after that bastard fur a wee while now, the shite bag had taken Marg's wee boy an' a few orphans. When we finally caught up an' raided his base, he was long gone an' Miwa was the only one alive. The base was like an underground labyrinth, all the room were filled with dead bodies."

Daichi paused, it killed him to bring back the boys body. It's the reason why Marg took Miwa under her wing "Once we got tae da last room, that's when we found her. The poor bairn looked like she'd walked the path tae hell thrice. She was sat in the corner of one of the cells in the room, surrounded by bodies. She was cowering as a walked closer, she was covered in bruises and cuts. She didnae have much on, just what was once a white patients gown"

Daichi nearly choked up "Her eyes looked so empty an' tired, once she realised we werenae a threat she relaxed before she passed out and we realised she was injured. We found Marg's wee boy, his body was close to where Miwa was. It wasn't until later that we found out that she was only alive because Marg's wee boy hid Miwa under him after one of the workers went nuts and killed all the prisoners" Daichi finished as he opened his eyes, Sakura lets out a horrified gasp.
