Reborn as Karin Uzumaki {naruto fanfic} Discontinued

chapter nine

I stood there still staring at him, dully. He flashed me one of his weird grins and i tried giving him one in return though it looked more of a grimace than a smile.
you could say it's the after-effect from the wonderful surprise of a person before me.

"hello there my child" he said with that snake-y voice of his. Strangely enough i wasn't that much distressed in fact i felt a rushing feeling in my core to which i had now realised it's adrenaline. Maybe the shivers running down my spine? Why do i suddenly feel numb? I think I'm slowly losing my sanity. The fact that this guy could literally end me right now no more than one second was really weighting down on my brain capacities.

I said nothing, not like i could anyways, but he continued speaking,

"I'd have to say I'm quite impressed that you found me back there, few people are actually able to locate me, little girl." He drawls out.

"I'm flattered..?" I don't think I'm yet understanding the situation as of now... why the hell is he here?? At least why now?! It's still too goddamn early tf actually happened?! Was i too rash on my decisions?

"Well you must be wondering who i am?" He grins.

I shook my head because let's face it, me saying that i don't know him despite the blatant shock and fear that i expressed more openly than anyone could to the same said person that i don't know and apparently seen for the first time would be pretty much the most awful lie in the century, so i decided to play it safe and not lie to the sannin before me.

"Oh so you know me~?"

Why dramatic? It's obvious that i know you...

"Yes." I nodded slowly in confirmation at this point if he tried to kill me I'm just gonna spill the beans and tell the future. Dying was definitely not what i was going for.

"And who might i be, little girl?"

I pursed my lips, why'd he has to talk like this?

"Orochimaru.....-san?" or sama? I answered awkwardly. So this is it? My second death? I'd have to say that I'm quite dissapointed. First death by a snake the second one by their master hah, the irony.

His grin stretched wider and i didn't know what to do?

"I have an offer to make little girl" he said with that grin of his.

I was feeling uncomfortable.

silly me assuming that talking to orochimaru was somewhat easy, i mean the guy could easily pass as a pedophile, sue me for being worried.

"Yeah...?" I answered him feeling unsure over the whole thing as i made a mental note to go over my plans that is of course if i can go home.

"If you join me I'll protect you and will provide a place where you will belong unlike this village that's mistreating you~," he drawls out, his squinting eyes shining brightly with mischief.

"What do you say karin-chan?" he hummed his eyes shining.

I already planned this so like............
sure?

I acted like i was thinking really hard and all and then i nodded at him.

"Good choice."
