Akatsuki's New Medic [Naruto Shippuden Fan Fiction]

4. My First Sealing

My concentration was broken suddenly as I heard a loud voice echoing in my head, but this voice was unfamiliar, it was not Jashin, no, it was someone else. It startled me, and then the voice addressed me, which just freaked me out.

'The two tails has successfully been gathered, everyone, the sealing will commence immediately, Deidara you shall briefly inform that Haruka girl of what I meant by this before you arrive.' The voice vanished suddenly, leaving me confused and stunned.

I heard Deidara sigh loudly, ''Dei-'' I was about to ask if he had heard that too when he stopped me abruptly, changing course. ''We don't have time to go back there... Well, what you just heard was the leader, he communicates to us through a telepathic link provided by the rings we all have. Now we need to find cover of some sort to establish a link to the sealing area.''

I just stayed silent, we landed in the middle of nowhere halfway up a huge cliffside, there was a recess. ''This should do... Question, how much chakra do you have exactly?''

I was a little confused by this but I explained that I had not used a lot and have quite a large amount to begin with, plus the fact that the stuff I used is almost all replenished by now.

''Okay, so would you erect a barrier hiding this cave, we don't want to anyone attacking us while here.'' I slowly nodded, ''Oh, and put your cape on quickly, before I connect us'' I put it on and quickly erected a barrier both shrouding our chakra and blocking the entrance to the cave.

''Right, now prepare yourself. It takes three days to perform a sealing, and it ain't the prettiest sight either..'' He trailed off, I sat down leaning against the wall, next thing I know I am in a darkened room, surrounded by many cloaked silhouetted figures.

I then noticed three figures that were not mere silhouettes, one was Hidan and the other must be Kakazu. They were standing upon the statue of two hands. On the fingers corresponding to their rings. ''You're up there,'' Deidara pointed before jumping up to his space. I wandered towards my spot, leaping up.

I looked to the third normal figure, a Kunoichi, no cloak... Lying unconscious and badly beaten in the middle of the two hands, why is she here? Why is no one helping her? Just as I was about to leap down to her aid, two further silhouettes appeared.

One was the lilac-haired female from before, Konan. My attention was ripped away from her when the male spoke, it was the voice from before. ''Okay, everyone is here, be silent and let us begin the sealing.'' He spoke. Konan whispered something to him, he cleared his throat, hushing Hidan's loud protest to the sealing taking too long.

''As you have all realised we have a new member, she is Deidara's new teammate and our organisations new medic. Haruka,'' My ears perked at the mention of my name, I turned away from the unconscious girl to listen.

''The sealing's last for three days and three nights, you shall funnel your chakra alongside everyone else's' into the process." I nodded slowly, not really sure what was going to happen... ''Good, let the sealing begin.'' I focused my chakra, the body in the centre belonging to the kunoichi slowly rose from the floor.

Her body soon became shrouded in an eerie pink as it began to seep from her body through all of her orifices, what the hell is going on here.

Then the horrible sounds of pain and bloodcurdling screams began as the eerie pink glow slowly travelled away from her body and towards the statue's mouth... it was disgusting and lasted for three full days.

After the third day was coming to a close, the pink aura grew weak around the Kunoichi, her screams and cries faded and as the last of the aura left her body, she dropped to the floor. Her body was limp, unmoving. I had exhausted half of my chakra between the sealing and the barrier.
