Chapter 4

Konan looks at Pain then back at me. She notices and remembers that I'm only 15. She looks at Pain as if she is trying to negotiate with him. I take it that they are a couple because I hear her calling him things like babe and sweetie.

Konan~ Could you wait out in the hall until I call you back in here?

Natalia~ Yes ma'am, I can.

Natalia walks out the door and is confronted by the big, 19, silvered hair man.

Natalia~ What is it? You aggravating jerk.

Hidan~ Nothing, just going to my room. Well about to, I have to go get something from Kakuzu then I'll be on my way to my room.

Natalia~ Oh okay then. See ya around.

~While in the office~

Konan~ Babe please, you know we've talked about children. You know I can't have any of my own. I know she's a teenager but still. Can we please adopt her and treat her like our own? Please. She says with puppy eyes.

Pain~ Fine. Once we're done here, I'll go and get the paperwork for the adoption.

Konan~ Yes. She says smiling, but soon stops and regains her composure.

Konan peaks her head out of the door and motions for me to come into the office.

Pain~ So first things first. Me and Konan are going to adopt you since you are still a teen and grew up without parents. Secondly I need you to tell me all that you remember from that day. Because from what I know is that the beast insides you, contacts you. Is that correct?

Natalia~ Yes it is. How did you....?

Pain~ The ninja erased your memory but did they have a way to erase the beasts memory when they did it to you? So I'm going to need you to contact the spirit of the beast inside of you and ask it if it remembers anything from that day.

Natalia~ How do you know that my memory was erased though?

Pain~ Because those two ninja worked for a person by the name of Orochimaru. He sent them to gain intel on you and ordered them to erase your memory once they gathered the intel they needed.

Natalia~ How do you know all of this?

Pain~ Simple sweets. A jutsu that lets me see, visually, what that one person is doing. I keep a very close eye on Orochimaru. A very close eye to see his every move.

Natalia~ But how did you know of me though? Was I on a poster or something?

Pain~ Yes actually. You are originally from the village hidden in the leaves. You and another person by the name of Naruto Uzumaki are the prized possessions of the leaf. You are their prized possessions because of the beasts that lay inside of you.

Natalia~ That makes sense I guess.

Pain~ So now can you please contact the beast that sleeps within your body.

Natalia~ Yes I can.

Natalia sits down and crosses her legs. She starts to meditate and concentrate on contacting Keita.

Keita~ What is it woman? You know how I get when I'm being woken up.

Natalia~ Yes, yes I know but my new supposed dad is asking if you remember anything from that day. You know when my memory was erased.

Keita~ Yes I do know stuff. Keep in mind that my memory can never be erased and when I sleep, my visual sight never cuts off which leads me to see everything.

Natalia~ And you couldn't say anything earlier Kei?

Keita~ No, no I sure couldn't Nali. I was just wanting to sleep for once.

Natalia~ Stubborn damn dragon.

Keita~ What can I say, I learned from you Nali. What did you expect? Haha.

Natalia~ Jackass. Anyway can you tell me what happened that day and make me remember?

Keita~ Yea I can but what do I get from telling you?

Natalia~ A weeks supply of food. And during that time I'll let you out of my body. Well half of you can leave the other half, ya know, it is kinda made to stay there.

Keita~ Make it two weeks because if you let one half out one week you could let the other half free the next.

Natalia~ Deal.

Keita~ So what happened was that you were walking along the path, the one you traveled with Hidan and Kakuzu here on but a few days before then these two ninja, one calling them self Matati and the other calling their self Utako.

They came from behind, you glowed up and you couldn't fight two people on your own because you and I were both restless and we were both losing energy. They took that chance and attacked you and a small fight broke out but we could barely do anything.

So one came from the front, the other from the back and yeah that's what happened. They ganged up on you while you were tired and losing energy. You still had enough to somewhat fight them off but not fully. They then knocked you out, erased you memory and then left you in that open field.

Natalia~ Thank you, Keita.

Keita~ No prob and don't forget about our deal.

Natalia~ I won't.

Natalia comes back to her senses and looks around and then stands up.

Pain~ What did the beast say?

Natalia~ He said that I was losing energy, meaning I was followed for awhile and the two ninja jumped me when I had my guard lowered and when I didn't have enough energy. I had a little to fight back but it wasn't enough. One was called Matati and the other was called Utako. That's all I know of.

Pain~ Thank you Natalia or can we call you Nali?

Natalia~ Nali or Natalia is fine.

Pain~ Okay, you can return back to your room and get ready. There is a shower in your room and clothes to.

Konan~ We are playing games tonight. So be prepared my sweet angel.

Natalia~ Okay.
