Welcome to Gaia! ::

Megami sat up, "Suigetsu. You are rediculous. You got me soaked!" She said ringing out the parts of cloth on her that she could. She looked over and saw what was going on. "That's not Saseito..." She said quietly to herself. She walked up to Belinda," Shh! Quiet." She said. "So who exactly is this here, Suigetsu? You know him?" She asked. She stared at him. She adjusted her glasses with her eyes still throbbing from earlier. But she knew that wasn't Saseito. He was dead, for sure.

Suddenly there was a pulse on Megami's chest. She held her hand to it. "Owe..." She said quiet, but enough to where it was present. She tried to ignore, but the pain, and burning seemed to be worse then the time before.

Megami sighed in almost sadness," Belinda, don't make me knock you out again. Saseito is gone. And I'm neither sad nor happy. Remember what his did to my family? Is that ringing a bell. It might just be good as well that he is gone. He was a threat and he was planning on joining the Akatsuki as it was. Listen, Belinda, Saseito is gone. And he Isn't coming back." She said pulling him back off of the attack that he was giving Suigetsu. "You know It's true. Don't let rage blind you. Got it?" She said.

Megami felt the sting on her face. He slapped her. Megami was shocked. Not angered, but shocked. She could probably, at that point, distroy him. Kill him, but she didn't want that. What he just did, ended everything, she wasn't to talk to him, and she wasn't to associate with him. Whatever Megami and Belinda were, was no more. Megami looked at her Mom," I we need to find out who the rogue Akatsuki member is..." She said in a lifeless voice.

Kody was in disbelief, no one recognized him, he thought someone would for sure; if not because he was an Uchiha, because he had ditched the village and had let someone from the village be murdered. Perhaps he was giving himself too much credit, maybe no one cared, the Uchiha were repopulated again, and there were many powerful Shinobi. More likely, however, was that it was Kody’s drastic change in appearance that made the group believe it was someone else. Though, why hadn’t the Hokage noticed?

Within minutes of his appearance, the group had once more begun to feud. Kody’s eyes moved from person to person as they spoke. It seemed Suigetsu had known Kody, which was odd as he (Kody) had never met Suigetsu before in his life.

Midori (name change again, woo-hoo, after this I’m goin’ to name change in and out without sayin’, so don’t think I’m messin’ up) raised an eyebrow as Suigetsu began to examine the teen’s face. He felt like a bull being inspected before he was purchased, and when his mouth was opened it took a great deal of strength to resist chomping down on the alien fingers that had forced their way into his mouth.

The feuding continued, the girl was yelling at the boy who had mistaken Midori for someone else completely. It was ridiculous, had Kody been a member of the Akatsuki the entire party (y’know, like, ‘your party gains X experience’) would be dead by now, luckily for them, he wasn’t.

Then it happened, the guy, Belinda, had wound up and swung, nailing the girl in the face with a loud clapping sound. The Uchiha flinched, in spite of himself. The one on the giving end of slap ran off quickly, Kody didn’t blame him, he’d have run too had he just nailed a girl in the face with an open palm slap, only because real men punch. Yeesh, what the hell is up with these people? Yellin’, threatening, hell even infighting. If this is what’s left of Konoha, maybe it’s a good thing I left here.

Midori was amazed; the girl who had been slapped had changed drastically. Her comment wasn’t too loud, so he had to strain to hear it, but her voice; it was hollow, empty and distant. Either the two had been close friends, or lovers, maybe even siblings, but for a single slap to do something like that, they had to be close.

“I..” Midori paused, and looked at the remainder of the group, “I didn’t mean to cause any trouble. I just heard that Akatsuki was to arrive here later today, so I showed up intending to ambush them. Turns out they beat me. I should be goin’ then, as they’ve got a couple on my trail, too.”

Using the palm of his right hand, Midori pushed the conical hat down, once more covering his face.
((Sorry, the post was kind'f forced.))

Suigetsu looked at Megami as she knew him much more then Suigetsu had. "No." He said to Megami. "I'm not the detector type of person, that would be Karin." Suigetsu said to Megami sitting on the ground.

Belinda unable to move, closed his eyes and began thinking deeply. "I'm a monster... that's all I ever will be..." He thought opening his eyes looking at the sky as the sun began to set. "I'm to weak to escape this... I might die here... maybe it's for the best." He looked into the bright sun for a couple of seconds then looked down. "Where did I go wrong dad?" Belinda asked himself trying to squirm out of the remains of the building, it was crushing him harder every second.

Midori shook his head, of course, as his face was covered, the only thing to show for the movement was the round hat, or rather, the paper draped down from it, waving gingerly. He wasn’t lying or trying to protect the village; they knew who he was, Uchiha Kody, the Black Flame of Konoha, sent on S-Class missions due to his ability to use most every element, with the exception of Light and Darkness.

“We may be distant cousins, dating back to when my grandpa was cousins with your dad, but, we don’t share anymore blood than that,” the Uchiha’s voice was dull and lifeless. All he had to live for now was the destruction of Akatsuki, for them to have fled the scene already, meant he’d lost their trail.

I don’t see how I can be valuable to the village. I would’ve been 6 months ago, not now; I’ll just lead more Akatsuki here to take out the rest of the village. Won’t that be grand! ‘Hey there guys, we’re here to kill the rest of you.’ ‘OKAY! SOUNDS AWESOME! LET US JUST FINISH OUR MEAL.’ I wish they’d just kick me out’f the village already, I’m getting’ antsy, I’m not from here anymore.

“Can I leave now?” Kody wasn’t really asking anyone, instead, he was sort of stating his demands, in question form. “I may’ve been from here before, but I’m not who I was then. I’m Naoki Midori (last name first, as is Japanese standard) the missing-nin, who has a personal vendetta with the Akatsuki. When Murrue was killed, I’d have been happy to be welcomed here with open arms, as a deserter, and former Konoha shinobi, I don’t want to be part of this place ever again.”

He began to fidget, ever so slightly, the hands hidden in the Akatsuki robes wiggling, waving the sleeves as a small gust of air might. Perhaps he should just turn around, that’d work, how could they stop him? Beat him down? They probably could, but would they risk it? The girl, who thought they were cousins, claimed he was important; they wouldn’t damage their valuables, would they?

Belinda laying there closed his eyes slowly thinking deeply. "I didn't want to do that Megami... it was not me..." Belinda said as he groaned in pain a bit and coughed out blood and eventually his head rested upon the debris and he didn't say another word talking in his final yet short breath.

A little girl around the age of 13 looked up at the sky with a smile. "We might have been attacked, but we are still here and we can repair the village to a better state then before the war started!" She said sitting on a rooftop and looking around. "Hmm..." She said seeing a small fox running right past her, she quickly caught it at the side of her eye grinning. "Foxes sure are rare around here..." She said jumping off the roof and running after the fox.

She eventually caught up with the fox that had suddenly taken a stop at some debris. With a grin she slowly walked to the fox and tried catching it, but her hands went right through it and she felt a cold chill going through her body. "Errr..." She said shaking as she looked at where the fox was, but he was gone. "What just happened..." The girl said still shaking for some reason.

She grinned knowing how she could find that fox. "Byakugan!" She said making a hand seal and her veins around her eyes popped out and looking around, but as she did she spotted something near her and she quickly fell back against the wall scared at what she saw. "A... A... A... dead body..." She said hugging her knees and shivering a bit she wasn't used to seeing people die which is why she was cheerful most of the time.
