A single drop

Kabuto

After a little while, Sasori returned to us and we kept walking to the base. I sighed trying to figure out when I should depart. After all, I wasn't needed for the sealing and I had to go make friends with the Naruto brat.

I then looked up at the Kazekage and I again sighed. Those two were friends meaning that brat would probably come to help his friend.

Now o could use this to my advantage and help Naruto get Gaara back or I could wait. I would most lovely end up waiting and kill some time training. Yea that should be good. I really didn't want to get myself involved with the sealing because if I was them the leafs suspicion would only grow.

After a few hours of walking, we got to the base and the sealing was set up. All the Akatsuki appeared and prepared for the sealing.

I turned away and began walking away only for my father la voice to stop me.

"Be careful my little guppy." He called out.

I turned around and smiled at him.

"When am I not." I said with a smirk.

He went to speak but I ran away giving him a wave before he could speak. I ran out of the base and kept running to where I usually trained. It was a day or two walks away from here. It was pretty evenly spaced between all the bases.

After a day and a half of sprinting, I was at my training area. I was kept updated on the sealing situation and they were still sealing it.

I sighed. I looked at my hands as guilt filled me. Why do I feel so ducking guilty? Is it because I know that boy won't survive. Dammit, Yoshi get your shit together. Your not a kid anymore. Stuff like this shouldn't bother you. You're 18 you need to start acting like it.

I shook my head. Okay now is not the time for this. Focus. I pulled out my two katanas. I closed my eyes and imagined dad in front of me.

I stepped forward and brought my katanas down on the image in my head. I kept moving as if dad was in front of me. We have fought so much that it was like he was here.

However, I stopped and opened my eyes as I turned to some trees. My eye narrowed as I suppressed a growl in my throat.

"How dumb do you think I am, dick?" I spat with venom.

"You sure have grown Yoshi." A familiar voice said.

"Why don't you come down here and I'll show you how much I've grown." I said as a dark aura radiated off of me.

Soon the white-haired boy with four eyes was in front of me. He was about to stand from a kneeled position but I held my blade to his throat as I glared daggers onto him.

Nyuko slithered down my blade and bared his fangs. Kabuto looked up and met my gaze and I felt myself go rigid. My heart started pounding. Dammit, I haven't seen him in years I should be past this.

He stood up pushing my blade away from him. He got right up in my face so we were millimetres apart. I watched his eyes narrow.

"It seems your still apart of the Akatsuki. Such a shame really." He said.

His hand made its way to my chin. I grabbed his wrist and bent on back. I watched as he tried to hide the pain.

"And it's such a shame you're still alive." I said.

we just watched eachother carefully. he only smirked. 

"to think you can't kill me because I said a few fake kind words to you." He said smugly. 

anger bubbled up in my stomach as well as sadness. I looked down at my fist clenched. 

"I hate you. those things you said made me feel- forget it." I said. 

my hands tightened around my katanas and I leapt forward and he narrowly dodged me. I was panting as tears stung my eyes. I shook my head.d no calm down. push your emotions away, you're an Akatsuki member. you can't allow yourself to taint their reputation. 

I went to turn around but a force came to the back of my neck and I felt my vision blur. I began to fall but arms wrapped around me before I hit the ground.

"screw you Kabuto." I mumbled before passing out.
