Small post

Heys, I just wanted to say that I'm gonna post another finished fic here real quick. I want to see what you all think. I have this fic up on Fanfiction.net so I wanted to post it here.
It's a side story to my friend Devyn's (AKA Hellraiser on YouTube) ( I use his name cause he uses it...)fanfic that he's writing. I thought I'd let you all know that I only used the name Chero Aoyama in this story cause he wanted to use my real name in his fic for the character I created. I was like NO WAY!

Kabuto's trick

She found out her hands and feet were tied. She was leaning up against a tree. Kabuto was sitting in front of her reading a map. Ayame struggled against her ropes to see if she could possibly escape. The ropes binding her got tighter causing her to gasp in pain.

“The more you struggle,” Kabuto said not taking his eyes off the map, “The tighter the ropes will get.”

She glared at him.

“You were talking in your sleep.”

Ayame’s face turned red.

“Yelling out for your parents, worrying about some monster and about how you had no where else to go. Then you started to talk about the leaf ninjas and talked about Rai a lot. You were screaming when you woke up.”

Ayame said nothing.

Kabuto looked up from the map, got up and walked over to Ayame and leaned in real close to her face.

“So, Ayame.... Where is it?”

“Where’s what?” she asked innocently.

“You know what.”

She gave him a puzzled look.

“The scroll!”

“Oh! Like I’d ever tell you!” she said spitting in his face.

He whipped off his face.

“You little brat!” he shouted slapping her across the face, leaving a red hand print on her right cheek, “I tired being nice at first by just asking, but I see I’ll have to go to more drastic measures.”

Ayame rolled her eyes.

Kabuto pulled out a small vile filled with a black, lumpy liquid like substance.

“What the heck is that?!”

He grinned as he uncorked the vile. What happened next happened so fast Ayame had no idea what hit her. Kabuto knocked her over onto her back and held her nose, forcing her mouth to open. He poured the substance in her mouth and forced her to swallow. Ayame choked and coughed as the lumpy liquid slid down her throat. It tasted horrible!

After Kabuto was sure all the black stuff was gone he sat her back up against the tree.

“What was that?” she asked.

“A fast acting truth serum I created. If I ask you a question you have to answer it truthfully.” he said grinning at his proud achievement, “For example: What’s your favorite color?”

“Purple.”

“Darn it!” she thought, “ There’s no getting around this....”

“It’s already working. Where’s the scroll?”

“There has to be someway out of this....”

Ayame then noticed a scroll sitting by Kabuto’s map.

“By your map.” she answered.

Kabuto turned around to see the small scroll sitting by his map.

“I guess I’ll have to be more specific...” Kabuto thought.

“Where is Lord Orochimaru’s red scroll that you stole from him?”

“I didn’t steal it. It belonged to my village, and as the only survivor the scroll belongs to me.”

“Ok, where is the red scroll that belongs to you that Orochimaru took from
your village that you took with you to the Hidden Leaf Village?”

“Crap.... There’s no getting around this very specific question...”

She bit her lips hard, trying not to let the words escape her mouth. She bit harder causing her lips to start to bleed. She couldn’t take it any longer, the pain of trying to stop the inevitable was too much. The words spilled out of her mouth.

“Tsunade-sama has it!” she shouted, tears pouring down her face.

“Where did Tsunade put your red scroll?”

“I don’t know.... She took it and put it in a safe place.”

“A safe place huh? Well now that I know who has the scroll it wont be to hard to figure out where it is...”

“I’ll need to be in two places at once.” Kabuto thought.

“Clone jutsu!”

Um... that's it for now!

Lost in Memories

Ayame was dreaming. Dreaming of a time that seem so, distant now.

5 year old Ayame was sitting on a large rock in her back yard, swinging her bare feet back in forth in the small pond. She was dressed in a pink dress and was grinning as a young woman in her late twenties with black hair and green eyes pulled her hair back into pigtails with pink ribbons. The lady was dressed in a purple tank top and skirt, smiling at her little girl.

“Mommy?” Ayame asked.

“What is it Ayame-chan?”

“My first day of school is tomorrow. Are you going to walk me there?”

“Only if you want to. I bet if you asked him, your dad would come too.”

“I want him to come, but doesn’t he have to work?”

“I’m sure he can come.”

Akina Hattori pulled the pink bows tight so they wouldn’t fall out.

“I’m home!”???? said.

“Daddy’s home!!” The little girl cried quickly putting her shoes on.

She ran up to the house, removed her shoes and ran to greet her father at the front door.

“Where are my two beautiful ladies?” he asked as she bounded around the corner.

Train Hattori embraced his daughter as she ran into his arms. He held her out and spun her around causing her to laugh with glee. He brought her back in safely into his arms and held her close.

Train was the one who gave Ayame her deep blue eyes, but he didn’t give her his dark brown hair that he liked to keep short. He was in his early thirties and cared about his daughter and wife more than anything else. He was dressed in purple as well.

Purple was the Hattori clan’s color and when a child graduated from both normal school and ninja school, they adopted the color purple as their own. In theSorottazousho village there were two main clans, the Hattori clan and the Kaku clan. Both of these clans were filled with ninjas who protected the village. The two clans never really got along, but they had peace because of how hard Ayame’s father as the leader of the village worked to keep the peace. These two clans have the ability to write messages that only someone from either clan could read. Ayame didn’t know how this worked, but she only knew that it happened and when she finally went to ninja school she would learn how to write and read these messages.

Ayame was happy.

That night she was tucked into bed and given goodnight kisses.

“But I can’t sleep. I’m too excited about school!” she told her parents.

“It’ll come faster if you sleep.” her mother told her.

“Yeah, besides if you don’t sleep some monster who takes sweet little girls when they aren’t sleeping will come and take you away. Then your mother and I will be very sad....” he father teased.

“Monster?!”

“Don’t scare her!” Akina said smacking her husband for his stupidity.

Akina pushed Ayame’s lose hair out of her face and started to hum an old lullaby. Ayame’s eye lids grew heavy as sleep overcame her. Before she drifted off she heard her parents say goodnight and that they love her.
When Ayame was young she was a sound sleeper, but this night something woke her up. She wasn’t sure what it was, but she had to find out.

“Mommy? Daddy?” she called out.

Not getting a reply her thoughts flew back to the monster her father mentioned . What if he forgot to tell her that the monster liked to eat mommy’s and daddy’s?! She crawled out of bed dressed in pink pj’s. She crept out into the hallway and wondered around the empty house. Where where her parents?!

She put on her shoes and left the house. Outside it was eerily quiet. She walked around for a bit before stepping in something. She looked down to see that she was standing in a pool of crimson blood. Inches away lied the candy shop keeper who gave Ayame freebies when her mother wasn’t looking. Ayame covered her mouth to prevent the scream that formed on her lips from escaping.

Now she was worried. Her parents were nowhere to be found. As she continued to search she found more and more dead bodies of people she grew up knowing. Not only adults, but some of her best friends. Tears started to well in her eyes as she realized everyone in her village was gone. But that couldn’t mean her parents where gone too......Could it? She ran to the last place she could think of. The village leader’s building. Her father worked there and she knew some of the village’s most important documents where there.

In front of the old building were two figures lying right next to one another holding hands. She couldn’t hold back the scream this time as she saw her parent’s lying there dead. She ran over to their bodies, tears pouring down her face. She fell to her knees and started to shake.

Her family, and friends! All gone! All the happiness she had, and looking forward to school seemed like a distant memory now.

A shadow towered over her. She gasped. The monster had returned and was going to either kill her or take her away. She slowly turned to see Orochimaru standing over her, leaning on a large red scroll. The scroll that caused all of Ayame’s troubles.

“It’s such a shame that I couldn’t make it in time to help. I could have saved them.”

Ayame was shaking in fear now. Could she trust him? There was something not quite right about him. She could feel it. How could she be sure he wasn’t the monster here to take her away.

“Mister.....”She said choosing her words carefully, “What should I do? Where do I go?”

“Well, my dear, you could come and stay with me.”

She hesitated.

“I’m a ninja, I’ll train you and I’ll try to track down whoever did this.” he said trying to give her a reassuring smile.

She had nowhere else to go, she was desperate.

“Ok.....”

“I’m Orochimaru.”

“I’m Ayame Hattori.”

“Well then, Ayame shall we go?” he asked reaching out his free hand shifting his weight.

“‘Kay...” she said grasping onto his white hand.

Other memories flashed in her mind. From meeting Naruto to training with Ino to meeting Rai. Rai catching her, Rai teasing her, and taking off his mask
and smiling at her.

Rai and all her friends vanished. All that was left was Orochimaru laughing.

“When the time is right Ayame Hattori will read the scroll to me and when I no longer need her....”

He picked up a kunai that was laying on the table and threw it at Ayame.

His chilling laugh surrounded her as she slipped into darkness.

She woke up screaming realizing then that the nightmare wasn’t over yet.

More later. ^.^

More Paper Work and a Drinking Problem

Tsunade sighed. She had soo much paper work to do. She was also worried about Team Kakashi. It was their first mission in two years and they were up against the Akatsuki.

“Naruto and Sakura will be fine. Kakashi is with them and they have Team Gai (Guy?) For backup. So, I need to stop worrying.” She thought.

“Lady Tsunade!” Shizune exclaimed rushing into the office.

“What is it Shizune? I have a lot of paper work.”

“Almost all of the Anbu Black Ops watching Ayame Hattori have turned up dead. The few that survived are seriously hurt!”

“What?! Who was the cause of it?”

“We asked one and he said Rai Kabau did it, but then we got a call from Rai’s
sister saying she found Rai on their door step knocked out cold.”

“Where do you need me?”

“You need to go to Rai. It seems he’s been poisoned, but we cannot identify the poison.”

“Before I go I need you to bring Ayame here.”

“Uh.....We can’t do that.”

“Why not?!”

“It seems no one has seen Ayame since last night. Ino went by this morning to pick her up for training, but Ayame was missing. There was a note that told Ino that she went for a walk with Rai and would be back soon. But as we know Rai is here....”

Tsunade’s eyes went wide.

“Gather up any high ranked ninjas you can, fan out and find Ayame! I have to go get the scroll.”

“Alright. Where did you hide it?”

“In the one place no one would think of!”

“It’s not in an extremely obvious place, like under your bed is it?”

“.......No! I would never put it there! .......It’s in my closet.”

“Lady Tsunade!!!”

“What?!”

“Where you drinking sake when you hid it?”

“......Maybe....”

“We’ll discuss your drinking habits later....”

Sorry it's sooo short, but the next part is kinda long so I didn't want it to be combinded with this one.

The Cloaked Figure and Ayame's Distress

Rai awoke early that next day. He had to get up early to switch places with one of the other Anbus watching Ayame. He walked into the kitchen to see that his sister was already making breakfast.

“Kiko-chan, you didn’t have to wake up early to make breakfast.” he told his little sister.

“It’s ok. I wanted to. Now sit down and eat.”

His sister, Tsukiko, was beautiful, with brown hair like his, but she had their mother’s deep purple eyes. She was three years younger than him and had only just joined a ninja team not long ago.

“Kiko-chan?”

“Yeah?”

“Do you have any daisies growing in your garden?”

“Yeah. Why?”

“Well, I met this girl and her favorite flowers are daisies.”

“Oh! I’ll go pick you a bunch! What colors? I have all sorts.”

“Purple.”

“Ok!”

A few minutes later Rai had finished eating and Tsukiko had returned with a bouquet of dark purple and light purple daisies. She handed the bundle to Rai.

“Thanks. See you when I get home.”

He hugged his sister and walked out the door. A figure dressed in a black cloak was standing outside of his door.

“Who are you?” Rai demanded.

A low eerie laugh came from the figure as it disappeared. The next thing Rai new was that he felt a prick on his neck and instantly Rai fell to the ground.

“Give my regards to Tsunade and don’t worry Ayame is in good hands now.” the figure said laughing before Rai passed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile Ayame awoke and decided to go for a walk before Ino came to get her. She headed out the door and stopped remembering what Rai told her.

“Rai-kun? You there?” she asked loudly, “I want to go for a walk.”

Almost instantly Rai showed up. He was wearing his mask, but today his hair was pushed back and covered by a black cloak.

“What’s with the weird outfit?” Ayame asked.

When she didn’t get a reply she frowned.

“Rai-kun? Did I get you in trouble? ...I’m sorry....”

She started walking, and Rai followed behind. A few minutes later Rai grabbed a hold of her hand. Ayame blushed.

“What are you doing?” she asked.

He motion for her to come and pulled her along. He started to go faster.

“Slow down Rai-kun!”

A few minutes later he stopped causing her to run into him. She muttered an apology and looked up seeing where they were.

“What are we doing by the gate? You said I wasn’t allowed to go near it.”

The gate at the moment was open and Rai started to drag Ayame towards it.

“Rai-kun! What are you doing?! Stop! RAI!” she screamed.

He stopped and turned to face her. She closed her eyes and slapped him across the face forgetting about the mask that he wore. The mask fell off, but before Ayame could see Rai’s face he turned away from her picked up the mask and moved away. As he slipped the mask back on Ayame swore she saw something glint from behind his mask. He turned to face her once again. This time she really studied his mask covered face.

“Wait....” She thought, “Rai’s mask has three strips on each side.....this one has only one!”

“You’re not Rai!” she exclaimed.

An eerie laugh escaped from behind the mask as the figure removed the mask. Ayame gasped.

“Kabuto!” she cried.

“It took you long enough to figure it out, Ayame.”

“What- What did you do to Rai?!”

“Oh, don’t worry about him. He’s just......sleeping.”

“You better not have hurt him!”

“It’s time to go home Ayame. Lord Orochimaru misses you very much.”

“I’ll never go back!” She spat making three hand signs.

She gathered chakara in her mouth and started to pull her whistle out of her kunai holster. Kabuto vanished and reappeared behind her.

“You may say you wont go back, but I’m not giving you a choice. I know all of your tricks Ayame.” he said pressing a pressure point on her neck. Ayame
collapsed instantly and fell into a deep sleep.
