Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: Karin

I was walking across water with Sasuke and Suigetsu when Suigetsu turned to Sasuke asking, why he was creating a team.

Sasuke turned to him as he said, "Because I have a goal and having a team will help me reach that goal faster. Ever since I joined up with Orochimaru I've been preparing for when this would happen. I've been carefully selecting the most powerful shinobi who catch my eye."

 

Suigetsu paused before saying, "Ok but I'm still not sure why you would choose Karin. You could do better like choosing Kiyoko instead. I mean unlike me she was one of Orochimaru's followers she's the warden on the whole south hideout where Orochimaru kept his test subjects locked up. Though she claimed she was only following Orochimaru's orders. She personally experimented on me many times."

 

I paused before asking, "So what's she like?"

 

Suigetsu turned to me as he said, "She's got long red hair, is annoying and always act's stuck up… I wonder if the two of you will get along."

 

Sasuke continued as he said, "They may be many shinobis that are just as strong and far easier to handle however she has a special ability one that no one else I know of possess."

 

"Well, that's true. Guess she's got that going for her."

 

I glanced at Sasuke as I thought, "A special ability?"

 

After a while we arrived in front of a metal door and Sasuke turned to Suigetsu. Suigetsu paused before asking, "What? You know you have a sword to Sasuke."

 

Sasuke turned back to the door as he said, "Yours is better suited for this."

 

Suigetsu sighed before screaming, "Open sesimi!" and cutting the door to pieces.

 

Just as they walked through Sasuke turned to me as he asked, "You're not coming… Kiyoko?"

 

I looked at him before saying, "I think I'll just wait here. Since Karin doesn't know me and all it may be better."

 

Suigetsu turned to me as he said, "She may have a point."

 

Sasuke looked at me before he continued walking.

 

After they were out of view, I bit my hand performing hand signes before placing it on the ground as I said, "Summoning jutsu."

 

There was a cloud of smoke before a tiny back lioness about 10 inches appeared as they started rambling, "Oh, it's you Hinoka! How are you?! What have you been up to?! Do you need something?! You can ask me for anything?! Just tell me what you need me to do, and I'll do it no matter what! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me…!"

 

I sighed before saying, "Kagehime if you would stop talking, I could tell you."

 

"Okay!"

 

"I want you to go to Orochimaru's lab and get any document on Dōjutsu's."

 

"Dojutsu's? Why do you want that? Oh, will I have to fight anyone…?!"

 

"No don't fight anyone… Wait can you actually fight?"

 

"Nope!"

 

I sighed before asking, "Can you do it or not?"

 

"I can! See you soon Hinoka!"

 

Just as she said that she disappeared.

 

*Third person POV*

 

As Sasuke and Karin were talking, the door was suddenly broken into pieces by Suigetsu as he said, "Come on Sasuke. I assume Karin turned you down."

 

Sasuke turned to Suigetsu as he said "Not quiet. Seems she's coming with us after all."

 

Karin put on her glasses as she exclaimed, "What who said I'm coming! I just…! I mean…! I just happened to be going in the same direction as you and that's it! Yeah, that's it! That's why I'm coming along!"

 

Suigetsu smiled as he said, "Well isn't that nice now we can travel part of the way together."

 

"That's right only part of the way!"

 

"Alright then let's get Jugo!"

 

"Hold on you want Jugo to join the team."

 

"Why should you care your only coming part of the way."

 

"Your right I don't care but I can still ask!"

 

Sasuke stood up as he said, "Let's go."

 

As they were nearing the exist Karin turned to Sasuke as she asked, "Sasuke did you come with someone else?"

 

Suigetsu spoke up before Sasuke could as he said, "Yep!"

 

Karin turned to him as she exclaimed, "I wasn't talking to you!"

Before adjusting her glasses as she thought, "There chakra it's the chakra of someone strong. On the outside they seem harmless but the deeper you go the more secrets you'll find, the scarier it gets. I wonder… I wonder what there like."

 

Karin turned her attention to a figure as Suigetsu said, "Hey Kiyoko were back!"

 

Kiyoko/Hinoka turned to Suigetsu but before she could say anything Karin screamed, "She's a girl?!"

 

"Yeah, I guess she is."

 

Kiyoko/Hinoka paused before asking, "Is she ok?"

 

Suigetsu laughed before saying, "I still wonder that?"

 

Karin suddenly punched Suigetsu as she said, "Shut up!" before glaring at Kiyoko/Hinoka as she thought, "I wonder what relationship she has with Sasuke-kun?"

 

As they were walking Karin turned to Kiyoko/Hinoka as she asked, "So how do you know Sasuke?"

 

Suigetsu interrupted as he asked, "Why do you care your only coming part of the way?"

 

"Yeah, but like I told you before I can ask questions! And I don't want to travel with someone who I know nothing about! Not even there face!"

 

"Oh yeah come to think of it Sasuke and I have never seen your real face."

 

Just then Kiyoko/Hinoka felt Sasuke's gaze when she said, "Yeah well is it really that important to see my face?"

 

Karin grinned as she said, "I'm guessing your ugly so you're using that mask to hide your face."

 

"Yeah… no. I wouldn't say I'm ugly considering how many boys have asked me out plus I'm definitely ten times prettier than you."

 

Karin started fuming as she tried to punch Kiyoko/Hinoka's mask screaming, "Then let's see your face!"

 

Kiyoko/Hinoka dogged her punch as she said, "No."

 

Suigetsu laughed as he said, "I guess the both of you will get along just fine." When Kiyoko/Hinoka jumped behind him and Karin ended punching him instead.

 

Karin's hand went through Suigetsu and Kiyoko/Hinoka chuckled, continuing to run backwards, when she bumped into Sasuke.

 

She turned her head and they both looked at each other, just as Kiyoko/Hinoka was about to say something Sasuke seemed to disappear.

 

 Kiyoko/Hinoka turned around as Karin was about to punch her in the face when Sasuke appeared in front of Kiyoko/Hinoka catching Karin's hand as he said, "Karin, try to get along with Kiyoko, we are a team now."

 

Karing blushed as she said, "But she started it, Sasuke-kun!

 

Kiyoko/Hinoka was still in shock as Sasuke let go of Karin's hand and stared at Kiyoko/Hinoka before he continued walking.

 

Karin glared at Kiyoko/Hinoka as she caught up to Sasuke.

 

Suigetsu walked up to Kiyoko/Hinoka as he asked, "You ok?"

 

Kiyoko/Hinoka still trying to get her thoughts in check nodded before walking off.
