Deiara-
"Damn D. Damn him to hell," I said as I was struggling to get out of my chains.
"Having trouble, my friend?" a familiar voice asked.
I looked up and was greeted by a smile. "Hello Tobie(Toby), how are you and the others?"
"Just fine," she said, smile faded and looking at me with her head to the side, "You look like you're in a bind. Too bad you don't have your clay pouch."
"Yeah, D. and Da-" I paused and looked at her surprised, "How do you know about my clay pouch? I never brought it with me when I was around you, Rin, and Tori."
"Whoops, cat's outta the bag," she said, looking at me, "Well, you don't remeber, but you were an Akatsuki member."
"What?"
"It's true, you know Naara's a member of Akatsuki and you are too. Tobi-sempai told me to come and get you."
"I don't believe you. I'm not an Akatsuki member, Tobie," I replied to the cat-girl.
"I just need Tori to restore your memory, she has them all," she said, getting the locked chains off.
"No thanks, I'm fine as I am."
"You've gotten weaker though."
"I'm not weak."
"If you're so sure, then why couldn't you get out?"
I looked away. "By the way, here's your clay pouch," she said, tossing the pouch, "I found it in a closet out there."
"Thanks un," I said, slipping in over my shoulder.
"Come on fox-girl, they're waiting."
I looked at her and sighed. "Fine, but you try anything and I'll go to fox mode and alert my friends."
"Nothing'll happen. Now come on, I don't wanna keep my sempai waiting."
Kyuubi-
It was surprising to See Suki again, but my gaze was still locked on Dark, who was on the ground, holding his head, and curling himself up. I gave no reaction to Hahimata's struggle. He knew what was eating him up, he knew the reason he killed himself.
My eyes shifted to the forest surrounding, but still made no move until Francis and Tora came. I stood up steadily. If someone just took a look at me, they'd think I was helpless, but even though I never moved from this spot, I'm not pathetic. I don't know the reason, but somehow the shift in my movement caused Suki to look behind her, but she met Francis's gaze, not mine.
Then in a split second, she looked paralyzed and started to fall to the ground, but in a swift movement, I caught her in my arms but didn't move my gaze from Hachimata's. And Francis fell to the ground out of the pain of sending Suki into a feverish state. Hachimata needed to find his way again though. This should help him out...
My black, dull eyes turned their bright red as I stared at Dark. "D. Kyuubi, sssave me..."
"He won't help you. He's not that kind of demon. Either you will find what you are lacking or this place will be your burial ground."
"Kill me then damn it!" I yelled, as he twitched, "I want thisss I don't care anymore! I killed Hachimata becaussse I hated him! Do any of you hear?! Kill me! I hurt you all! I sssslayed Hachimata! I killed hisss family! Take hisss revenge! Kill me!"
I closed my eyes and turned from him as he went to talk to himself. I opened my eyes and turned to the spider demon on the ground. "So, you're Nekomata's brother... A spider demon as well..."
He coughed, holding his heart and stomach. "You shouldn't have tried harming her, especially since I don't know you or Tora well enough."
I looked at Francis's pain, but knew I couldn't do anything. I turned and looked at Suki. I need to find a way to help her.
"Tora, you need to keep an eye on Francis right now, I know we can't do anything, but you need to try."
I turned to Dark. "Hachimata, you should go back to D. you should know what to do. I've got to take care of her right now, so I don't have the time anymore. Sorry you were all involved," I walked to the nearby lake.
"I can help you out though," Tora said, supporting Francis onto his feet.
"No, it'll be fine. I know what to do."
"Are you sure?" Francis questioned weakly.
"You should wait here. If you are cruel, Nekomata's children should know and not come, but they are blood of your sister's, just make sure not to hurt them. I hope you wouldn't dream of it," I said, sitting down, still holding Suki and getting my scarf wet.
I looked at the sky for a moment and sighed. "Hachi should know what to do, but Shukaku needs to hurry," I looked back at the wolf that was on my lap, "Sorry you were dragged into this too."
-Well, anyone can continue
