THIS MAN UP THERE IS SEIJURO!

Isn't he a beauty?

So I've removed the mature tag from my story because... well I realize my story wouldn't be ranked that way.

And if there are any of those 'scenes' coming up, I'll let ya know!

My little toddlers.. GIVE ME A NAME TO CALL YOU GUYS!

Also if you guys don't know already Imma update the FUCK out of this book! That means my update schedule is literally every three days at an average.

If I don't update then that means I have an exam to study for or I hit a writer's block.

Or I don't 'feel' like updating.

Also Im not going to be doing double updates anymore because I've noticed that the views on the second chapter drastically drop. For example, my first chapter could be at 90 views, but the second would only be at 50. 

I don't like that..

Anyways,

Enjoy reading!

Akina's POV

Your precious comrades will all die unless you stay away.

Well no problem, you bastard. I crumpled the note in my hand, seething. 

"What do you mean my team is coming for me?! I specifically told them not to!" I shouted at the poor bird in frustration.

"Fuck!" I swore and picked up the Bingo book.

Kokomi shivered a little before disappearing.

I saw my name and a few details mentioned about me.

"Hn. Seems like Konoha didn't waste any time. Sasuke had at least 3 years to be declared rogue. Also B rank? That's... adequate."

I fell on the bed and Seijuro entered my room hurriedly.

"Kono-"

"Shinobi are after me and are heading right here because like a total idiot, I told Sasuke where I'd previously lived. I know."

He stared at me for a few seconds before speaking. 

"You really are a psychic."

I cracked a small smirk. 

"Well I can't let my reputation fail me now."

We headed down the stairs to see Mirai mumbling to herself her eyes closed.

"Um is she always like this?" I asked the red haired boy beside me.

"Yeah, whenever she gets a vision she goes into a trance. Once it happened during dinner and she fell right into the food." Seijuro chuckled along with me.

Mirai's eyes snapped open and she got up, hobbling towards us as fast as her little feet could take her.

"Quickly! They are reaching the village within a few minutes."

"Who are they?"

"Your genin team, a team with shadow boy and another team with two boys wearing green spandex."

"E-eh?!"

Shit, that's more than the Sasuke retrieval squad!

"If they find me, I doubt I'd be able to fight all of them at once. They're pretty strong."

Not to mention I wouldn't stand a chance against Lee and Gai. Those two alone could crush me.

I made my team strong, stronger than they were in the anime.

"Yes, the odds are not good. They also have morning wood with them."

"M-morning wood?!" I squeaked, face red. Beside me Seijuro spluttered.

She rolled her eyes at me. "Not that, you silly girl. That man who taught you your mokuton. He can trace your presence in trees, apparently so you can't hide there."

"Please call him Yamato."

"Enough chit chat! We need to hide you now."

Seijuro frowned. "Can't she just transform?"

"They have ninken. They'll trace me to here- shit! I need to run." I scrambled towards the door, opening it.

I stepped out into the sunlight and looked at the empty streets before running towards my home.

"Akina! Where the hell are you going?!" Seijuro called after me.

"Somewhere they won't be able to track me! My own home. My scent will be all over that place."

As I turned the corner I let out a small squeal and hid behind a house.

All the Konoha nin were there. Pakkun was sniffing the place and Sakura was getting ready to punch it all down.

Pakkun barked at Kakashi. "She's not here. But her scent is nearby." 

Pakkun started running right at me, others following and I panicked. 

"Kuchiyose no jutsu!" 

A large hawk appeared before me.

"Kisho! Get me out of here, away from Konoha shinobi!" I screeched at his distracted form as I heard the footsteps getting faster.

"AKINA CHAN!"

"AKINA!" 

Sasuke and Naruto's voices called out for me as I was getting on Kisho.

I turned around to see Shikamaru crouched on the floor, as his shadow began travelling towards my summon.

"Leave me alone!" I shouted at them frustrated.

I sensed a person creep up behind me and without wasting a second I kicked the shi- no kunoichi off. 

Sakura.

"Mind transfer no jutsu!"

Suddenly, I lost control of my body as Ino fell onto the ground, Choji holding on to her.

My consciousness got sidelined as Ino took control, her little avatar in my mind space.

"Its a success! I got control of her body!" Ino jumped in joy.

My words. 

My body.

But, not me.

"GET OUT, INO!" I roared at her, anger fueling up my determination but to no avail.

She walked freely towards the Konoha shinobi, her hand outstretched.

"She's fighting strong inside. Restrain her quickly."

Sasuke immediately hugged me. 

"Akina.. why?"

The sadness in his voice dimmed my anger and I felt like crying.

Ino hitched, tears falling down her face. 

"S-Sasuke san, you managed to calm her temper. But now she's horribly sad. I can't stop crying in her body."

"Can't you read her memories?" Neji asked.

She shook her head. "Not in this form I can't."

"Ino.. please tell Sasuke that I'm sorry but it had to be done, for the sake of Konoha. Danzo was a corrupt man." I spoke in my mind.

"Akina says she's sorry but it had to happen and that Danzo was a co-"

"A FRYING PAN WILL ALWAYS DEFEAT YOU NINJAS!" A familiar voice screamed out loud.

THWACK!

A frying pan was stuck to my face.

Again.

But thanks to that, Ino left my body and held her bleeding nose as I regained my self.

Sasuke was staring at my face in absolute shock.

It was pure silence for a whole few moments as the pan fell off my face and onto the ground.

Eyes shifted towards Seijuro and he smiled nervously.

"Hi! I'm Seijuro and Akina is actually my partner so I'm just going to take her back for a sec-"

"YOU BASTARD!" Naruto roared and sent kunais in his direction.

Kakashi shouted at Naruto to stop, saying he was a civilian but Seijuro screamed like a girl and somehow managed to dodge the three kunais, panting heavily.

"AKINA FUCKING RUN BEFORE I BECOME A HUMAN DART BOARD!" With that he screeched and began running as TenTen began chasing him.

I shunshined to Seijuro and began running beside him.

"How did y-"

"A shunshin. Hold on to that tree there!" He looked at me as if I was insane but did as I said.

"I'll bring your grandmother." I promised him and before he could say anything, I transported him.

TenTen stood behind me and readied her weapons.

"You know, honestly I wish I was Temari for a second." I drawled out lazily as I dodged her attacks and jumped on the roofs. 

I began running towards Mirai, the others following me.

"Akina stop. Its enough. Tell us the truth and return." Kakashi, Asuma and Gai were on par with me.

I can't.. Neither of you are strong enough to take 'him' on.

"No. Not really in the mood to tell my sob story."

I heard a whir of chakra encoated weapon fly past me and I acted by going inside the wood.

"Call Yamato!" Kakashi shouted.

I looked around for Mirai.

"Mirai! We need to go, like now!"

"Oof youngsters these days.. Take your bag." I caught my belongings and stared at her holding up other bags filled with scrolls. 

Everything had been packed.

"Wh-what?"

"Close your mouth or else a horse will get in. I'm a psychic. I've been wanting to leave this shitty town for months now. Today's the day! Take me to Sei chan."

I touched her hand and encased my chakra around us both.

The door banged open with Yamato leading the team.

"I found her!"

My eyes widened as my team burst in.

"Stop Akina!" Sakura called out for me and Naruto jumped towards me, an angry look on his face as he screamed my name.

"Sorry.." With my transport, we vanished.

7 Months After Pain's Offer

"Seijuro! Where the hell is my outfit?!" I yelled out, annoyed that he'd stolen my daily wear outfit again.

"Its out drying in the sun! You should thank me for washing that filthy excuse of a cloth!" 

I grumbled and made my way out.

I swear to Kami, he's such a mother hen sometimes.

"Oh Mirai san good morning." I wished the old lady drinking tea.

"Ohayo. Akina, sit and have some tea with me. I wish to tell you something."

I sat down and grabbed the cup of tea already poured out.

"My end is near."

I stilled. 

"I'm going to die of natural causes, not the masked man so don't worry."

"That doesn't make it better." I said too tired to shed any tears as I set my cup down.

"Well, I did see the future of my family, Sei chan included. Akina, please do me a favor and keep him safe." She held my hands and pleaded with me.

"I don't know, Mirai san. I'm too weak and I am losing hope within myself. All of this, has taken a toll on me." I smiled sadly at her.

"Well, I shouldn't be telling you this, but I foresee your future to be a bright one. Please, don't lose hope."

I looked at her, dully. 

"I.. don't know. I just want to stop."

She smacked me and I hissed in pain, holding my cheek. 

"Ouch!"

"Have you forgotten all about your revenge plan? About how you'd kill him?! I don't see Sasuke giving up any time soon, so why are you?!"

"Because Sasuke and I are different."

"You both are one and the same in this situation." She huffed angrily.

"I did not decide to take you in for you to give up."

"I'm sorry, Mirai san, but I have lost all my motivation. The best thing for me to do is send information to Konoha regarding the future and let them deal with it." 

I stood up from my seat.

"Mirai san, Hiruzen san, I'm sorry to disappoint but I quit the shinobi life." With tears in my eyes I walked away back to my room.

"Ak- Woah, are you fine?" Seijuro asked worriedly.

"Do I look okay?"

"No need to get all snappy. I need to cheer you up! How about some dorayaki?"

"I'm not in a mood for any food."

He frowned. "You've been saying that every time we make dorayaki. In fact, you barely eat. Look at you, looking like a twig. The wind will blow you away you know."

I chuckled. "No it won't." I opened the door to my room.

"Let me take you out."

"What?" 

His emerald red orbs bored into mine. "Let's go to the village festival tonight."

After wearing the red yukata and applying slight makeup, I stepped out of the room to see Seijuro in a matching one as well.

"Isn't red on red a little too much?" 

He chuckled. "It makes all of them think of blood and that I'm a force, not to be messed with!"

I poked his cheek. "Obviously. With me there, senbon in my hair and weapons strapped to my legs no one will dare to trifle with you."

He smacked my hand away, eyes sparkling with mischief. 

"Come on! I have an amazing night planned for us."

"This is your idea of amazing?" I snickered slightly. 

He beamed brightly. "Yep! But better ones are yet to come."

I took the net from the shop keeper's hand. "Seems cliche."

He shrugged. "Its the beginning."

We both looked down at the large glass aquarium, filled with a variety of goldfish. 

"Whoever loses, becomes the other's slave."

We rolled up our sleeves and I smirked at him. "I was a ninja. You're going down, Seijuro!"

He smiled. "We'll see."

"Kage bunshin no jutsu!" Three clones stood next to me, each holding a net in their hands.

My smirk became wider at his shocked expression.

"Now, we start!"

"I-I lost..."

"That was expected! I had you completely tricked from the beginning." 

"Damn you, Seijuro."

He poked his tongue out at me. "If you could use your ninja techniques, I can easily go and buy three packets of fish next door! Its an equal trade."

I looked at him, pretending to be annoyed but in reality it was quite logical and hilarious.

"You ninja overthink way too much. Just be logical!" 

"We are logical!"

He snorted and shook his head. "Whatever, slave. Now, come with me to that little store selling clothes."

"B-but that's a cosplay store!"

"Come on out, Akina!" Seijuro teasingly called me out.

"No way! I look like.. a weird blue creature!"

He chuckled. "His name is Happy!"

I stepped out in a weird neko costume with wings attached. 

I was wearing a small blue colored dress with poofy sleeves. It had small fake, white wings coming out from its back along with a tail.

I was also wearing a neko headband with a fake blue wig and stockings underneath my dress.

"Maybe I should say her name is Happy!"

I gave him a glare. He was wearing a fake pink colored wig with a white checkered scarf around his neck. There was no shirt on his body and had on a sleeveless, gold trimmed, black waistcoat showing his bare chest. He was wearing a similar designed pant underneath.

"And what are you supposed to be?"

"I'm Natsu from the manga Fairytale!"

I blinked. 

Fairytale sounded familiar but I couldn't remember where I'd heard it from.

"Doesn't Natsu have a better partner? I'm not even human!"

He frowned. "Well, he does have Lucy. You can wear her dress, but I don't think you should." 

"Why not?"

He blushed and pointed at a display outfit. A simple brassiere along with a skirt.

"That outfit isn't right but perverts in the world designed it like this so.." 

I smiled at him. "Not your fault. I'd rather be Happy." 

He beamed. "Now, onto the fun stuff!"

"You're kidding me. This is so stupid, Seijuro!" 

He flashed a grin at me. "Its meant to be stupid!"

I looked at the paper and bottle of ink in front of me, holding a brush in my right hand.

"I suck at drawing." I groaned.

"And so do I! Let's suck at drawing together!"

I burst out laughing. "Sure, so we'll draw each other then. Whoever is the best-"

"-gets to feed any food of their choice to the other." He interrupted me.

I narrowed my eyes at him. "No way, Seijuro! I told you I don't like dorayaki any more."

He frowned. "Sobo told me its your favorite food just like Doraemon!" 

"Doraemon? You really like mangas don't you."

"No changing the topic, baka!"

"Fine. I used to like it but not anymore."

He set down his paper and brush. "I smell some gossip and an interesting story." He pretended to sniff the air around me like a ninken. 

I giggled at his childlike behavior, loosening up.

"I had liked it from the start, dorayaki. Then Sasuke, even though he didn't like sweets, bought one for me and ate it. He said he liked it even though I knew he despised it with every fiber of his being. Now, every time I look at dorayaki, I can't help imagining Sasuke and how he must hate me." I smiled faintly at the thought of Sasuke but then saddened immediately.

He remained silent and gave a small sad smile. "This Sasuke seems like a very special person to you."

"He is. He is my first love."

"Is?"

I nodded. "I can't forget about him, no matter how much of an asshole he is or even though he is different from what I imagined my lover to be like. He treats m-"

"What's so special about Sasuke?" I looked at him slightly confused just to see a hint of curiosity on his face as he leaned forward, interested to hear my answer.

I shrugged. "Well for starters, he looks good. His attitude towards everything may suck, but I know he secretly cares about everything. He never underestimated me, not even once. When I lost my parents.. he was there for me, asking me if I was alright even though he acted as if he never cared. Sasuke can be really sweet at times to me, privately but I just.. love the way how we understand each other you know? Our connection.. our ability to understand one another.. Its like, we're friends and lovers at the same time. He's there for me no matter what and most of all, he trusts me and believes in me." 

There was silence for a few minutes after that, as I began tugging out the grass next to me. 

"He seems like a good dude." Seijuro finally spoke, a small smile on his face.

"He is."

"You know, I think that's the first time you've shared something about your past with me." He looked happy.

"It looks like it. I take time to trust, Seijuro. I'm happy you're my friend, no you're more like a brother to me."

He laughed loudly. "And you would be my younger annoying, perverted sister."

I poked my tongue out at him. "I'm not a pervert, I'm a super pervert!"

"How's that better you hoe?"

I gasped. "Don't call me a hoe, Seijuhoe! Or else I'll tell that boy how you were eyeing him like a piece of meat."

He turned a bright shade of red. 

"I'M NOT GAY!"

I gasped. "You aren't?"

"N-no I am not! Last time I checked, I was interested in girls, not guys." 

I smothered my laughs by turning to the side and coughing. "Panicked -cough- gay."

"Damn you, Akina! Once I win this contest, I'll stuff your mouth with dorayaki and create a new memory for you!"

"A new memory?"

He nodded, a determined glint in his eyes. "I will be the reason, why you love dorayaki once more instead of hating it."

I couldn't help but burst out laughing loudly, holding my stomach.

"Are you aware how much of cringe was packed into that sentence Seijuro?!"

He gave me a look. "I'm serious, Akina. You need, no- deserve to be happy."

My laughter slowly died out as we stared into each other's eyes. His eyes held so much of affection and warmth for me, I made myself and Mirai a promise.

I will never let anyone hurt you, Seijuro.

At that exact moment, firecrackers lit up the sky in a bunch of colors and he pulled me into a half hug, wrapping a blanket around us as the wind blew on top of the hill.

"This is so cliche." I murmured.

"That's what makes it all the more fun. It is cliche, but there's a reason everyone loves this, even if they don't want to admit it."

Two months later, Mirai died due to old age. Since Seijuro and Mirai had said their goodbye's, it wasn't as hurtful as it was supposed to be.

However, he was extremely depressed for a month and I never left him alone during that crucial period. 

Even if he'd scream at me.

A month later, I began teaching him some basics of ninja training and I began to train as well after months of not touching my kunai.

I had almost turned into a civilian, leading a peaceful life in a small unnoticed village.

Those months I stayed with this family, was the most peaceful I'd felt in a long time. 

The day Seijuro took me out for the festival changed everything for me.

After a long time, I felt happy. I wasn't chained like a bird anymore.

I was free.

I slowly got back into my eating habits and tried to convince myself to send a letter to my teammates to apologize, or even tell them I was fine. 

But I couldn't, too terrified to find out that they hated me.

I was a coward, too afraid to face the truth and it was fine by me.

My dark circles were slowly disappearing, but I later realized I had gotten very faint stress lines under my eyes, not as large as Itachi's but still noticeable.

Seijuro and I were now closer than ever, but I was still very hesitant to leave him all alone at home.

Things were finally peaceful for me.

Hey!

A filler chapter! This was kinda important to show how their relationship grew even though I kinda rushed it.

What do you feel about Seijuro?

He's good in your books or a threat?

And how do you think his behavior is towards Akina hm?

And what do you think about that man from the Akatsuki? (I forgot his name n now I'm too lazy to check it...)

This chapter felt wayyy too dramatic.

Okay, so the next chapter will be slightly short and probably the last chapter for PART 1.

I promise.

If you guys don't have mixed emotions by the end of the next chapter, I have failed you as an author.

Anyways, thoughts on this chapter?

To all my fellow BTS fans out there, I'm planning on writing a BTS Zombie AU fanfic. Would anyone be interested in reading it if I do publish it?
