[[Ohhhh... >.> DAMMIT INDI. Dx -gasp- ... Kai finally has something to do. = w= ]]
Nami somehow had made her way directly to Itachi's room. She had zoned out practically the whole walk, how she got to where she wanted to was beyond her. She looked up at the door. It seemed so intimidating now that she was actually there outside of it. "Uh..." Just like that, the English language seemed to leave her. She made a pouty face at the door. Well this was uncomfortable.
"Huh?" An unfamiliar chakra was extremely close to where Kai was. Now, ya see, Kai is not one for meeting people, especially people with freaky auras. He took a step towards the nearby forest, hoping he wouldn't have to go in there. "Hello? Hellooooooo?!"
Kira shook her head slowly. "There are quite a few others, though there's just a bit of drama currently going down. You two will probably meet the others soon, but for right now many of them are on the edge of insanity, a massacre, many things." She looked at both of them, a smirk making way across her lips. "I don't think you'd want to get so involved just yet." She took a step back, giving them both the space to relax. "Is there anything either of you would like?" Why was she so... not... UGH. Forget this. Kira decided she'd just go along with it; it couldn't last too long.

Itachi slowly got up his feet. He knew who was out there. One of the only people who bothered with him. He smirked to himself, just to test it out. It felt normal. It felt how it usually felt. Itachi's footsteps were quiet as he walked towards the door. He stood just to the side of the door knob, waiting for Nami to make the first move.
Kurai could hear a voice calling out. Finally someone had noticed her. Someone who could maybe help ease the physical pain. She breathed out, not realizing that she had been holding on to it to begin with. Kurai's mouth dropped open, attempting to speak the words, "I'm here." Nothing came out. Not word nor sound. Her hands wobbled as she held a few kunai. Kurai's aim shouldn't have been affected but as she threw them, they also seemed to wobble off the target. A few went past the tree beside her and onto others but hopefully the one who spots her can figure out where she was from that.
"As I said earlier," Akane smiled, "My welcoming should've had some food included. Mind showing us the kitchen?" It was a bother how the villages that hired her didn't offer them food, requiring them to have to force some food out of them. It wouldnn't have hurt as bad if they just gave them some food.
[[You could clone except cloning would seem a little weird to do in mid-battle]]

[[True... But yea, that would be weird to do mid-battle. xD BUT I AM SO TEMPTED. :0 ]]
Nami shifted uncomfortably. There was no way he wanted to converse with anyone right now, let alone her. She raised a hand up to rub at the back of her neck. "I-...Ita-kun?" She poked the door with her free hand. "Ya'in there?"
Kai faintly stumbled back. He noticed that none of the kunai that were thrown didn't go directly near his body. His eyes lowered as he started walking into the forest, following the scratches the kunais had made on the trees on their way by. He glanced around in the direction he felt the chakra. Surely someone who was supposed to be a threat would've had better aim, right? So... maybe it wasn't a threatening person.
If saying what he saw shocked him, that would've been a big understatement. "Kurai?!" A bloodied Kurai sat in the tree above him, badly injured, but not dead. He jumped up onto a branch beside the one she was on; he didn't want to cause her any unnecessary strain. "...Do you think you'd be ok if I carried you back to the base....?" Why was he so worried? Just seeing the sight of her made his brain and heart hurt.
Kira chuckled quietly; of course she'd want food. "This way." She turned slowly and began walking, only to stop abruptly. "Or," She turned her head to look behind her, a Cheshire grin on her lips, even mocking a quote he'd once said, "I prefer... the short cut." She kept her gaze on the two, silently asking them what they wished to do.

[Yeah... Sorry about that. I basically went all detailed martial arts. Sorry. ^-^;
He basically just made a couple hand signs with some fancy footing. Then lunged at you and swong. Thats where I left it, didn't it, or miss, or anything. xD I left that all upto you. He's kind of big on eye candy. He likes to look good with whatever he's doing. It's nothing but a regular swing of his scythe. Mwa ha! xD]

[[Almost posted in BROWN D: Anyway, I'm really confused now]]
Itachi was quiet for a few moments, pondering on his next choice of words. 'Yeah' seemed much too casual for his 'normal' self. There wasn't much else to say, really. Yes, yep, yeah, sure. Nothing seemed to suit him the least bit. With a deep breath, Itachi had found his choice of words. "Where else would I be?" He asked as sarcastically as he could manage. Maybe even over doing it for the small encounter.
A faint smile lingered on Kurai's lips as Kai approached and came. "It can't hurt anymore than it does." Her voice sounded dead which she surely would've appreciated more than her current state. Of course Kurai was happy when she figured Kai was coming, only because he could help her, nothing more, nothing less.
Kurai said once before that she had yet to be scarred from battle. True it was but she did have scars. Not only emotional scars but scars from herself. While 'training' her emotions, the leader had somehow put on a strange jutsu that maybe he himself, or she assumed was a he, had made. It was one that had negative emotions create wounds on the body. Positive emotions seemed to only make ninjas go farther, or so the leader thought. Kurai was about to be the reason for her own death.
[[Don't worry! Kurai-chan won't actually die. I'm having too much fun with her >.<"]]
Akane arched an eyebrow. She usually did perfer shortcuts, but what did Kira have in mind? Akane knew her limits; she could not poof into a place she did not know. "What is this short cut you speak of, Kira?" The spark in her eyes returned, enjoyment shone through.

[[ Eh? Why're you confused? D= ]]
Nami sighed in her mind. She should have expected that. She shrugged, despite the fact that neither of them could see the other. "I dunno. Maybe at... a... cupcake factory. Or a petting zoo." She smiled; she didn't want him to know the reason she was there. Sure, she went to see him because of Kurai, but she probably would've at least wanted to see him soon anyways. She started rambling again to stall, muttering things about Tasmanian Devils and why they looked so adorable but were said to be so mean, even muttering things about the cartoon they made about one that truly looked nothing like a real Tasmanian Devil.
Kai managed a weak grin. "Of course." He reached an unsteady hand behind her back and under her knees, deciding that carrying her 'bridal style' would be best. He jumped down to land on ground level as gently as he could possibly manage, gapping it back to the base. He knew how it felt to be injured and your carriers take too damn long to get to actually helping you, so he wasn't an enemy to time. [[ That made no sense. xDDD ]]
Kira smirked, the smirk even staying in her eyes as she spoke. "Oh, you know... just walking through a black hole. Heh. Don't get lost." Just like that, a none too welcoming blackish-purple hole spread across the floor. Kira had a sick urge to push them both into it, but waited for a few words from the two.

[[You and Indo confused me but I understand now. He cleared it up for me biggrin ]]
Itachi sighed loudly. Hopefully loud enough for Nami to hear from the otherside of the door. "Nami," he called out quietly. "Why are you here?" It wasn't one of those, 'Why are you here? Leave me alone and get out of me face,' kinds. This one was gentle in both tone and choice of words. Attempting to sooth Nami even. Itachi did not want to be pitied if that was why. That would've been the last thing he would ever want to received from someone: pity.
[[Sort of made sense razz ]]
"I don't mean to be picky or anything Kai-kun," Kurai groaned. "Mind slowling down? I don't do so good with this speed in this state." Even more so than before, she could feel every single bump, every rock he stpped on.
Akane walked without into it without a second thought. "Make sure you lead me to the kitchen, kay? I don't want to end up metting the demons of hell." The thought made her chuckle. Meeting the demon of hell, eh? Maybe she could strike a deal with it.
Katashi was hesitant to follow. Who knew if we could even trust the little girl. She could be wanting to kill them, like others. When Akane stepped through he quickly followed. Her fate would be his.
[[I know, I know that took forever and it barely had any detail in it. xDD Some people came over. My classmate. >.>" I'll still be posting but just not as thoroughly. ^ ^;]]

[[It's ok~ 8D I'm just happy you're posting at all. ^ o^ ]]
Nami quickly thought of a reason to actually be there, coming up with a rather pathetic one. "What's your favorite color? Aaaaandd... what's your favorite kinda food? And... do you... like... squirrels?" She stuttered near the end, having run out of questions. Maybe she could just say she wanted to draw a portrait of him that why she could stare at him for a long period or something, either way, that would have definitely been a better reason than asking him stupid questions.
Kai stopped short, one leg still in mid-air. "Uh, sorry. I was trying to hurry." He gave a nervous laugh. "Sorry if that hurt you. :C " He continued on much more slowly, muttering rants of "sorry's."
Kira hadn't expected the girl to be so fearless. The boy acted more like the girl should have. He seemed clingy... She shrugged and walked into the portal, it immediately closing right after. She stared into the black and purple swirls, letting it lead her to the kitchen. "Don't try to walk there yourself, let it guide you." She didn't speak loudly, for it echoed into the darkness anyhow. She had decided to be vague in her sentence, saying "it" instead of the shadows, otherwise known as the dead.

His eyes were glued to the door. Really, Nami was the most confusing girl on these grounds. Slowly, Itachi turned the door knob opening it saying, "Nami, you don't pity me do you?" His voice was hard 'cause of the effort he put into sounding disgusted by the thought of it. Somehow Itachi didn't want to say, "Do you pity me?" It was almost as if he could've said, "I know her better than that.
[[o; Kyaaa!]]
Kurai ignored the rants. She was tired. She was hurt. She was... well, lonely. Who else had kept her sane but the demons that kept her company? No one. Who else, now that she realized it, created issues among themselves to rpevent her from thinking about negative things? Who else? No one. "Kai, I am sorry."
"Sure, sure Kira. S'not like I know where I'm going anyway.." Akane hadn't much to fear for afterall. Her steps were sure and certain in some random direction....
Katashi's eyes were on Akane's back the whole time. He slowed his pace till he walked next to Kira. "What exactly is this 'it?'" Of course, it couldn't have been something that could kill them all.. could it have been? "You sure this 'it' won't kill her?"

Nami smiled at the opening of the door and slowly she began to think about her answer to Itachi's question. She thought about it seriously, meaning it took a minute for her to answer. It seemed almost like she had to lie. But, maybe it really was the truth. Finally, after too much thought, she looked up at him, shaking her head. "No." Her smile was weaker this time; did she even have a reason to smile this time?
Kai looked down abruptly, staring at Kurai as if she were insane. They were outside the main entrance to the base now, a place hardly anyone went. "...Why?" He tilted his head. Surely Kurai hadn't done anything to him that needed an apology. "What for?"
Kira looked to her left, not having to raise her head since all three of them were floating. "Ghosts. Zombies. Spirits. Poltergeists. It is many things." She looked at Akane, staring at her silhouette as she spoke next. "Not unless I tell it to. And, honestly, I don't have a reason to do that." A bright dot appeared ahead of them; slowly it grew bigger, the light growing even brighter. They had arrived. ... So much work just to get to a kitchen.

Itachi's solemn eyes stared at Nami, giving her much thought. She was nice. A word that was much overused by people. She was cheerful or so she led everyone on. Itachi knew pity, he knew when people lied, he knew when things were wrong. Itachi knew all of it. He had enough experience in such things that he would know. Itachi hadn't planned to force anything out of her. The time would come when she felt comfortable enough to announce what she thought. "If, if I answer your questions you will not leave." It was not a question. It was a fact that stared him right in the face.
Kurai shut her eyes. Why did she apologize to Kai? Why did she? She didn't know. Kurai lyed there in Kai's arms not moving or breathing for a while. She let out of a breath of stale air and breathed in needed air. "I'm taking advantage of your kindness." 'Taking advantage' It was a term she was familiar with. Before she hadn't thanked or apologized anyone or anything for taking advantage. Like.... like her long gone demons.
Akane was disappointed. For the most bizarre reason as well. She was disappointed because she couldn't stay longer in the place the three of them were drifting along. Akane wouldn't admit it outloud but it felt good to be in there. She stepped out of the dark portal thingy, a small smile plastered on her face. The same exact smile she had when she walked in.
Katashi, honestly, was delight to leave the dark. Where the little girl named Kira had control of whatever happened in there. He glanced at Kira and then to Akane. He had thought things couldn't get any weirder but, oh good God, was he wrong.

Nami's smile grew as she again shook her head. "I probably won't this time. Not soon, at least." She decided that wasn't the way she wanted that to be worded, quickly adding, "At least that's what I hope. You seem to hate me, so I'll probably be kicked out soon." She shrugged. "Besides, those questions were lame. But, I do wanna know your favorite color. I might wanna draw a picture later. 8D " She stayed where she was, waiting to see if Itachi would kick her out before she even got the chance to go in, or see if he magically allowed her into the room. [[ It's magically delicious! <3 LUCKEH CHARMS. >=D ]]
"Kurai, believe me, you're not 'taking advantage of my kindness.' If I didn't want to help you, I would've left you there to possibly rot... I'm not even sure if I have any kindness in me." Kai spoke without much of a tone, getting his point across as firmly as possible. "I'm sure that you couldn't take advantage of anyone, really. If they didn't care about you, they wouldn't be there. Right?" He nudged the door open with his leg, being as quiet as possible. He didn't much want anyone to notice she was alive. Not that he was mean, or anything! He just didn't like stampedes.
"Fly, be free!" Kira announced, tossing her arms into the air carelessly. She didn't much favor the Akatsuki's food supply; she wouldn't care at all if Akane ate every bit of their food. After her deed was done, she looked back to Katashi. "I take it you don't like me very much." She spoke too innocently for comfort.
