Life and Death

Chapter 1

I watched the black haired man with red eyes pacing backwards and forwards as he waited for his blue companion, my green eye darted to the door as he stepped out,

“Took you a while,” the man stopped pacing,

“Sorry, I was finishing off this.” the blue man held up his large sword,

“Did it brake again?” the mans red eyes eyed it carefully,

“Yeah, the handle snapped off,” the man traced a blue finger across the yellow handle,

“Well, we’d better go,” the black haired man muttered, motioning me forwards, I stood up and ignored the stiffness in my legs as I walked behind the large blue person. They stopped in front of their leader and bowed, the redhead mumbled something gruffly and swooped past us, turning into his own room,

“Shall we go, Itachi?” the blue man asked, raising an eyebrow,

“We shall, Kisame. Come Aya.” he replied, I nodded as they opened the door, the breeze caught strands of my brown hair and sent it wast my shoulders, the men put on their straw hats,

“This should be fun,” Kisame smirked, Itachi ignored him and moved a strand of black hair out of his face,

“Lets just get us that Jinchuriki quickly, Deidara and Sasori took at least three full days on their’s.” Itachi grumbled, rolling his red eyes,

“The only reason they came late was because Deidara wasn’t prepared,” Kisame sighed, lowing his voice as theyjumped upwards and away from the base, I followed after them, hanging onto every last word. Deidara-sempai was skilled in his capture of the Junchuriki of the Sand, and managed to get the nine-tails here, although it costed Sasori-sempai his life it was worth it,

“Just be quiet, Kisame, we’re on a mission,” Itachi frowned, he looked to me, “Aya, I want you to stay here, I’m waiting for Zetsu and Tobi. They should be here any minuet now.” Itachi whispered, looking up at the sun,

“We need her, Itachi.” Kisame muttered, leaning on his sword,

“No we don’t, this Jinchuriki capture should be easy, and besides I have the Mongekyo.” Itachi smiled,

“What ever, can we just go?” Kisame asked, swinging the sword over his shoulder,

“Might as well,” Itachi shrugged, following Kisame. I sighed and leant against the tree, although the black cloak I wore was thick it did little to protect me from the wind. Zetsu appeared in front of me, emerging from the ground, Tobi followed soon after

“Hello Aya!” the masked man chirped, I sighed,

“Itachi-sempai told me to wait here for you to arrive, apparently you were going to meet him for something,” I muttered,

“Yes, I would’ve done the same with leaving my assisstant, but Tobi had other ideas” Zetsu’s venus-fly-trap head muttered, tilting to towards the masked man,

“Tobi would never leave Mister Zetsu!” Tobi sung, Zetsu shook his plant-like head,

“As you can see,” he mumbled to me, I nodded slightly, “Itachi gave this to me a few years ago, and now I’m returning it.” Zetsu said, handing me a thick scroll with old paper,

“I’m sure Itachi-sempai will acknowledge this.” I bowed,

“Very well, I’ll be leaving Tobi with you,” he raised his eyebrows, “I’m sorry,” he said quietly before vanishing,

“Mister Zetsu?” Tobi spun around,

“Come on Tobi, lets go.” i said, pushing myself off the bark and peering over the side of the cliff,
