There’s a line that people knew not to cross around her, it was perhaps the only thing that was completely taboo about her – nobody mentioned her family, and nobody mentioned her clan, everybody avoided it like it was the dam plague.
The young Uchiha frowned behind his mask, he knew why they avoided it better than anybody though, and judging by the wide eyes silent stares that the rest of his companions were shooting towards the two women, that seemed to be in the middle of a stare down, it was the same for them as well.
“Look kid, maybe you should stop now before you find out something you might regret …” it was Hidan who broke the silence, receiving a few raised brows at how remarkably calm and considerate that sounded. “What ? “ he frowned and looked around . “ Stop staring you bastards, you know as well as I do, that if she opens up that can of worms none of us will sleep well tonight!”
Ahh yes, back to the screaming- the Uchiha mentally hisses, allowing his mind to ponder for a second as to why his uncle would choose this particular character as a Akatsuki member, and better still – how in the name of god was he overlooking thelevel of … volume the man projected .
“ Look captain, its obviously a gag of some sorts …” Suigetsu chuckled slightly before removing his mask completely and stepping closer towards the two .” I mean, everybody in the leaf knows about what your father ordered you t–“
‘Shit, no ! ‘ came the inner mantra of a very startled Uchiha. That fucking idiot
“Toooday my darling left me again …” the forest exploded with the off-key singing and of a very nervous looking, smiling, Uchiha that seemed to attach himself to Suigetsu’s back “ Come on sing with mee! Eeeverybody – toooday my darling left me again, the sun shines but rain pors down like hell “ what in the name of god was he doing ? this wanst like him, and by the shocked expressions most of them probably figured out that this was a bit out of character. But at least he stopped that line for coming out of the idiots mouth.
“Dude … wtf … “ the white haired man struggled out of the Uchihas headlock type
grip. “ Get … off …”
“Enough !”
S**t.
A pair of emerald green eyes shot towards them – so cold and calculated that perhaps even Madara would find them terrifying, Sasuke thought . It was perhaps this that the village feared most, not the violent outburst, not the physical damage, no. They feared the calm in which she dealt with it, the ease that she spoke of it, the terrifying smile that came with it. True to her clan the young captain controlled her every reaction – and to the villagers this was like a ticking time bomb
============================10 years ago NZA academy ==============================
“How can a child that was found covered with her father’s blood be so calm and collected ?” a voice chimed over the already loud room, silencing most but not all. The man that spoke was old, accompanied by his sister- they were the elders and everybody respected their decision. However, the decision they would have to take next was proving to be the hardest one yet.
“The girl was in shock for over a week sir- we found her shaking, half frozen from hypothermia in the middle of the snowstorm. “ A white haired shinobi with a half hidden face spoke up .
“What was she doing ?”
“She was … “ the pause, this wasn’t going to be easy to explain . “ She was rocking back and forth,crying and washing away her hands with the fallen snow. She was … mumbling.” The man trailed, looking away fro a second .
“What was she saying …?”
“She was saying – it wont come off .” the man breathed out, fixing with his one good eye the shocked reactions he was about to receive . “ She said and I quote :
Help me sensei, it wont come out, the red wont come out “
If silence could kill, them perhaps most of the people in the Leaf council could have been declared dead at the scene. In the corner of the room however, the Uchiha’s smirked – Fugaku silently patting his own back while his sons frowned in confusion. This was their first time when their father brought them to the council, he said ‘it was going to be a good one ‘. Sasuke would latter find out just what his father meant by the word ‘good’
“And from that she got to this ….” The man sighed ,sliding forth a few folders which apparently held more information about the girl. Sasuke frowned – ‘Catatonic like state’ was written in bold letters .
“So …she’s catatonic, she doesn’t respond and when she does she addresses me formally “ a long white haired man finally rose from the table. “ This is Kinonai we’re talking about, she used to ruin out gardens and prank the Uchiha’s – formal isn’t what she does !”
“Calm down Jiraya .” the elder urged
“No ! I will not- she’s my god dam goddaughter, she just lost her parents because the Uchiha’s couldn’t handle the competition” a silent ‘hn’ was herd from Fugaku as a small smirk stretched his lips. “ And now she’s acting as if nothing happened- and you people are asking me to keep her on active duty ?” the rage that pored out of the man seemed to silence the table .
“Need I remind you…” Fugaku began, earning a deep frown from Jiraya .”She was and is an anbu captain – despite being 13 she managed too. That is an accomplishment that only a skilled shinobi could fufill” another smirk “Itachi here made captain two years ago, at the age of 11. She’s not as skilled as him but she comes close “ the man smirked, while his two sons seemed to sink into their chairs – how much he hated when his father put him on display .
“You just want her back out there so she would end up dead – then it would truly be the end of the Takamura clan .” Jiraya spat out .
“Perhaps … “ the Uchiha smirked, “ but my logic is flawless…”
“Then its settled .” the elder nodded .” Though I do fear that her controlled and cold self would one day be the end of us – but until further notice she will be kept a close watch on, even when she is eventually returned to active duty”

“That’s enough …” the woman spoke slowly, making Suigetsu freeze in his tracks . “
It’s alright …” she smiled over her shouler.
Oh …no .
“I don’t know who you are, but judging by your body shape, facial features and eye color, you are not related to me . “she began “Even if you still claim you were, then know that I indeed killed every last one of my family members. The reasons as to how, or why are none of your business. I did it, they are dead – and I’m alive to tell the tale “ she smirked sadistically before turning around . “The Takamura’s are gone-good riddance I say … ohh and one more thing .” she chuckled over her shoulder . “ Before you point out and scream ‘ murderer’ think about this – I just admitted to killing over 100 people in one night, infront of five people . Obviously the NZA chief knows and as well as … most of the country . So next time you call out murder, ask yourself why I’m standing here with captain stripes and anbu gear “
