I began getting dressed, readying for another mission. I tied my slashed leaf headband around my waist. As I slipped on my shoes, a thought popped into my head. I suddenly started thinking about my childhood. I don't know why I started thinking about this; it usually knew its place, buried in my mind.

A tear trickled down my face, down the scar across my check. I heard the jiggling of my door; I quickly wiped my face, so there was no trace of my sorrow. The door opened and out peered Kabuto's face. I was a little shocked; he very rarely just walked into my room, usually that was Orochimaru who was that rude. He said," Hello, I like your new hairstyle. The bangs over the right eye are really going for you." I chuckled at his sarcasm; I asked bluntly," What do you want?"

A grin appeared on his face. He said," I have another mission for you. And before you complain, it has to do with one thing you hate most." I immediately caught what he was saying," The Hidden Leaf Village, huh?" His grin grew to an evil smile," Oh, yes it does, but there's another thing you have to deal with. Naruto Uzumaki." My eyes widened, he could tell I wanted details. He continued," What you have to do is pose as a princess, returning to her homeland, and she needs security. Naruto, for example, would be a perfect bodyguard.

And your 'homeland' is here, in the village hidden in the Sound." A smile appeared on my face, I said," So, we're going to put Sasuke to the test, are we?" He nodded, I took the scroll from him and he left my room, and then I got re-dressed for my mission.

I wore a long, flexible, red-ish skirt. With a flaming red, wing-looking, bra-type shirt with netting to go with it, around my stomach. I put my really long hair up in a ponytail, I tied it with ribbon, red of course. I wore heeled shoes that had ribbon strapped up my leg. No makeup, I didn't need it. Thanks to my sleeping problem I already look like I'm wearing makeup. On my walk to the Leaf, I started to think. 'What if this is all a trap?'

I said to myself. 'Kabuto has always been the one for mischief, especially if it was for someone that was stealing his time with Orochimaru.' Those thoughts were stuck in my head until I reached the Leaf Village's gate. I erased my thoughts away and let the view fill me with anger. I wasn't nearly ready to come back to the place I left when I was about thirteen. I started sweating a little, not enough to be noticed. The two ninja sitting at the desk next to the gate noticed me walking by. One of them called me over. I hesitated before I walked over. When I reached he desk, the cute guy asked," New here, huh? "I nodded, the girl said," Can we help you with anything?"

I gulped; it felt like I couldn't breathe. This hasn't happened before, I was freezing, nearly making it visible that I was…scared? They both had a look of sympathy, he said," Look; can you point where you're headed?" I lost eye contact with them when I turned my head to the ground. I closed my eyes, I took a deep breath, and slowly said," I-I, need to get to…the Hokage's Mansion." He was a little surprised to see me finally talk. He said, "I'll take you there, so you don't get lost." His partner understood and he led me towards the mansion.

He had no attraction towards me if that what you're thinking. He was just being nice. The Mansion was now in view. I started to glare at it, not caring of who sees. He glanced at me a few times, after a while he asked," So, you don't quite like the Hokage, yet you want to see her." "Her?" I asked. He looked at me in confusion," Yeah, Lady Tsunade is the fifth Hokage, you didn't know that?" I stared at the ground, I almost felt sad, almost. I questioned," W-what happened to the third Hokage?" He looked forward, obviously not liking the conversation. He answered," The third was killed a few years ago." I suddenly stopped walking, looking at the five faces on the mountain.

He noticed I wasn't following him so he stopped walking too. I asked while glaring at the last face," How?" He took a breath before answering, "A rouge; from this village, named Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sanin, murdered him while the Chunin exams were going on." A voice started saying 'What are you waiting for? This is your chance, go and kill your rival. All will be well, and you won't have to deal with the fighting either, take her by surprise. Do it! NOW!'

I said while trying to ignore the voice," I think I can go from here." He smiled and nodded, then patted me on my shoulder when he walked by me to go back to the gate. Tsunade was one my greatest rivals, when I was younger, I always envied her. I used to idolize her, for her ingeniousness, her beauty, her talent. Now, I hate her, I despise looking at her. And if she remembers all of those times we had together, then she will recognize me. Luckily, as you get older, your memories slowly disappear. There's a possible chance she won't. I started walking again, looking at the Hokage's mansion with a smile. Screw my mission, if I had a chance to get what I wanted, I took it.

I was at the entrance doorway. I was about to step in to go upstairs until this idiot ran into me. We crashed to the ground; my head hit the wall on the inside of the building. I looked around, trying to focus on something, but I couldn't, my head was throbbing. I grabbed my head with my hand, when I pulled my hand away, I could see red, and it was warm, at first. My hand began to feel heavy, I let it fall. I could hear voices coming from the hallways above the stairs. The kid that ran into me came up to my face and asked," Are you okay!? Oh geeze, I'm so sorry!"

My eyes felt heavy, and it was getting dark. He kept on saying "No! Stay awake! Stay awake! Help! Somebody!" A voice said," Don't worry we're coming to help!" Their voices started to blur out of my head. I could feel that the others had arrived; they picked me up and started running. I woke up in the Hospital. My eyes grew wide. There was a blonde kid standing at the window. I sat up straight, then I asked," Wha- where am I?" He quickly turned and he looked relieved. He said," In the hospital. Sorry, I kind of ran into you." "So I've heard." I said.

Then there was something familiar about his face. I took the blanket off, he quickly gestured, no! Then he sprinted towards me and gently pushed me down. He said," The doctor said not to let you get up yet." I let out an impatient sigh. He smiled. I asked," How long was I out?" He answered," A couple of days now. You're not from around here are you?" I smiled and nodded. He said," I thought so; your clothes gave you away. What did you come here for?" I turned to look outside, past him.

My smile disappeared, I said," I, can't remember." He said "Oh. Well that sucks." Then the doctor walked in, he asked," Feeling better?" "Yeah, when can I get out of here?" He answered," Not for a couple of days, okay. You took quite a pounding." I raised my voice," Another couple of days!?" I turned to look at the kid," Geeze, how fast were you going!? What, did you miss a meal!?" The doctor said," Now listen, you need to calm down-" "I will not calm down!" I shouted," You have no right to tell me what to do! Why don't you listen and let me out of here!"

He called for his nurse and she came rushing in. People outside the doorway were staring. I yelled," What are you people looking at!?" Then they quickly turned their faces away. The nurse grabbed a syringe. There was some kind of medicine in it, probably to put me to sleep. I said with eyes wide open staring at it," Get that away from me. I don't do needles." She quickly rubbed a cotton ball on my arm where my vein was visible. She was ready to stick it in me. The blonde kid held my right side down, the doctor held the other half. I started squirming; the needle was so close, too close. I finally broke my hand free of the doctor's grip and smacked her hand away from me. She dropped it and the glass around it broke, spilling the medicine.

I got free from them and jumped out of the bed. My clothes were different, they weren't mine. I wore I plain dark blue shirt with matching pants. They came closer to me, wanting to calm me down. What was wrong with me today? I couldn't control my actions or my temper anymore. I backed away, all the way to the wall. I felt the cool glass of the window. Then I quickly grabbed the end table right next to me and smashed it through the window. I threw the little table back towards them and I jumped out. My arms were wide open, embracing the wind that brushed across me.

I was about three feet from the window, in mid-air, but something caught my feet. I started to hang from it. I look to my feet and the blonde kid has a hold of them. Little pieces of glass were falling from the broken widow. When a piece was near, I grabbed it, tightly. It started drawing blood, and then I lifted my torso so I could reach him, and I cut his hands. He let go, unwillingly. I flipped backward so my face was facing the ground. I landed silently, one hand with glass, the other feeling the gravel of the Earth. I stood without a sound, it was dark out, and people were asleep. I looked up at my room, he looked shocked. I don't know why, doesn't everybody do that, when they don't want something? I dropped the piece of glass and my hand started healing, rapidly.

I looked at my bloody hand, and I brushed my other hand's fingertips along the slices. Blood gushed out when I put pressure on it. I looked forward, not paying any attention to my wound. I didn't even think of the trail of blood that I left behind. I was walking to my previous destination, the Mansion. I started walking up the stairs, no sounds were made. It was dead silence. There wasn't even a breeze outside. I reached the Hokage's office. But when I opened the door, it was empty. I invited myself in; I caught sight of the bingo book lying on her desk. It was open on a certain page, she left in a hurry. I walked around her desk, to where her chair was. I moved it aside to get a clearer picture of the person.

It was me, 'Kakina Kishy, former ninja of Hidden Leaf. Released of her duties as a shanobi for she is mentally unstable. Many murders and the number is increasing. Bring to Leaf Village, Dead or Alive. S-Rank criminal.' I read it out loud. Then I whispered to myself," Mentally unstable huh? They always put that into perspective when you start killing people for fun." A smile appeared on my face, and I don't know why. I tore out that piece of paper and shut the book; my blood was all over it, good. Hopefully she still has that fear for blood. "Taking something?"

I looked up and there was the kid. I said," Maybe, why would you care anyway?" I crumbled up the piece of paper; the voice said 'He can't know about this! Waste him!" "Oh shut up and let me make my own decisions!" I screamed. He looked frightened," Ugh, no one was talking." The sight of this kid was annoying me.

I ran up to him and punched him in the face. His head pounded on the hallway wall. I ran upstairs even further, clutching the book in my hands. I got to the rooftop. I ran to the front of the roof's floor. I looked down, calculating my chances of surviving. I turned back to go down the stairs instead, but I was blocked by that stupid kid again. I stepped back, eyes wide and mouth slightly open. I said quietly," H-how? Y-you should be knocked out, if not worse!" I pointed to the redness on his face. He touched it with his hand, "Oh this? This is nothing."

I frowned and gave him an anger filled look. I quickly sprinted towards the railing, grabbed it with my free hand, and swung over it down to the ground. I hit the ground with stealth, not a sound was made. And I landed elegantly. I looked up, seeing his shocked and scared expression. I turned forward; wanting to run but a boy interfered. He crossed his arms and gave a fake smile, "Where do you think you're going?" He had short black hair, and on his forehead . . . he wore the headband of the leaf. I growled at the sight.
