Aoiharu's post

Her last screams faded into the dark, pale night. The moon that shined through the trees as Aoi fell down, tear- striken face flushed and wide-eyed. Her head pounded as the blood rushed through her exposed body; breath ragged and short. Panting loudly, she lay still as the dark figure behind her stood up to his full height. His sadistic chuckle filled the night air as he reached down and pulled Aoi's head up, sneering into her face.


" Bitch. Think you could of screwed me over? Looks like the tables got turned. " Chuckling darkly, he, as like before, Bit down on her neck roughly. It'd brusie later. The un-named figure pushed her down, leaving her in a broken heap on the forest floor. Tears fell from her eyes as she lay there, still as night and the man jumped away.

Grimincing, she sobed quietly as she slowly pulled herself up. Bare, she wobbled over to where her clothes lay, deathly still on the ground. Silently, her blood-shot eyes dimly blinked as the water still flowed from them.

Once she was covered her muscles became sore and hard. Aoi's abdomen ached from it's violation and her legs stung from stress. Sniffling quietly, she stumbled over to a large tree, a hollowed out space between its roots was big enough to fit her; but small enough to hold her in. Quietly, she huged her knees and hid her head, cring, tring to erase the mental scars from her brain...

The Scars of a Mistake. Scars of this..rape.

Three months later, after she had returned. Her first months were spend in reclusion, recouperating from her mission gone wrong and the other situation.

It now seemed like every morning she'd wake up sometime late at night (or very early morning) and throw up. Her stomach would be emptied out of the non-exsitant food that she had eaten the day before. She'd gained alot of weight, even her usually small belly starting to bulge. She didn't get it. Aoi was never a big eater, but since her mission, she'd taken a leave from the ninja world and started eating like crazy.

Not to mention, the odd cravings she had. Stuff like, Chocolate covered pickles, Peppermint Strawberries, and even Corn mixed with Sour cream. Talk about nasty, but she had found it sooo good. One day, she decided that enough, was enough. Walking into the clinic, she awaited her appointment with the medic nin.

A tall, brown haired nurse called her in, getting Aoiharu to do multipule tests.

A week later, they called her back, with urgant news. The nurse, who's name turned out to be Asoko, told her to wait in a special ward and wait for the doctor. He was a tall man, a gruff beard lining his angular jaw line. First, he shuffled through some papers on a clip board then looked at her closely.

Aoi grew nervous. The Doctor's black eyes piecred through her, and made her nervous as hell. Swallowing, Aoi eyed him warily, wondering what this was all about.

" Your 3 months pregnant. " He said, voice even and uncaring. Sighing, he turned and left, leaving a shocked Aoi in the chair at his office.

Aoi's ears filled with whails of a cring baby. " shh.... Alya...its okay, baby..It'll be over soon..." She tightened the 3 week old bundle closer to her as she walked at a brisk pace through Iwagakure. She knew this would be the best place. Far from Kirigakure.. and she'd never have to see Alya.

It wasn't that she didn't love her. It was the oppisite. She loved Alya dearly. But she knew, that if anyone found out, that she wasn't supposed to be born, she'd never be able to protect her. Another thing..is that she didn't think she could take care of her. Aoi was too young. Barely scratching the age of twenty, she had a whole life time infront of her.

Looking down, at teh small baby girl, she smiled wearily. One day. One day she would find Ayla again, and they could get to know each other. But looking at her know, she knew that Ayla would become a powerful and headstrong girl. Just like her.

Hugging Ayla, she stopped at a nice looking home on the outskirts of the city. A tear slipped from her eyes, as she slowly set down Ayla on their door step. She pulled her black hood on her head, and sliped the note on Ayla's stomach as she lay there, looked wide eyed at her mother. Aoi smiled and bent down, kissing her forehead.

She almost re-considered her decision when Ayla laughed and smiled brightly at Aoi. Looking down, she knocked on the door rapidly. Then she jumped away, into the dark dense woods. And never turned back.

Blinking tears back, Aoiharu came back to the presant. It had been over 13 years since Ayla-chan and the memory of her was still freash. It haunted her all the time, like an emotional tatto on her wrist and she was forced to stare at it. Gulping back a pile of bail in the back of her throat, she stood up from her chair in her house. Happily married to the Mizukage, she still missed her Ayla-chan.

It would of been her birthday today. She turned to the cupcakes she had been making. Picking up a lone candle, she blinked back tears and struck a match and lit it up. Aoi stuck it in a cupcake and blew it out.

" Happy birthday, Ayla-chan.."

The light from outside glared out of her window, mocking her dour mood with it's happy atosmesphere. Flinching, she stood up and walked up to the window above their kitchen sink. Huffing lightly, she pulled the curtains closed, diming the room slightly.

But only to a non-existant point.

Sighing, she sat down at the table again, fishing fingers in her pocket. Twisting around a small half of a locket. It was silver, half of a heart... The charm's other piece is or..was with Ayla. She tightened her grip on it. Everyday, she worred about Ayla. Was she safe? Was she alive? Did she do the right thing?

Even if Ayla was with her for 3 weeks, and she came from a horrible memory... Aoi couldn't help but love her daughter that she'd never see.

She sighed and lay her head down. Missing Ayla with all her heart.

Aoi blinked, lifting her heavy head up. Sighing, she stood up and looked around the empty house. Shuura was out; on a mission to meet with another kage for some national buisness. Rain was out training with some friends.. He'd been gone for a week. Grimincing, she realized she had done nothing that week except hang around the house and mope about this day.

Huffing lightly, Aoi lightly trampled around their house. Living with two grown boys was more than messy, but she didn't care. Reminding herself mentally, she made a note to clean up. The living room was a mess; with soda cans and pillows tossed around. It looked like Shuura and his son had had another Xbox 360 challenge. She sighed. That was diffinately it. The controllers lay dejectively next to the couch; which had two permenant indents where they both sat. Everytime they ever came into the room. Aoi just shook her head and chuckled. She loved them both dearly. Walking quietly to the front, she sat down at the set in the front and pulled on her boots. They were black and were made of a thick leather.

She had gotten them right after she had given away Ayla.

Flinching slightly, she sighed and walked out the door, careful to lock it. Jumping down the steps, two things at a time, she started a brisk walk to the woods. Stepping onto a well-beaten path, she started down in the depth of night. Closing her eyes, she kept walking, closing off her senses, and walking idly.

Then.. she felt it. Aoi opened her eyes and stopped. Glancing around, she thought silently toherself. '...what the...? Is someone else here..?' Aoi tensed alittle as she slid closer to the chakra signal. She couldn't help but feel that it was familar... but.. how? Feeling it closer, Aoi could feel that it was weak.. Like the person was hurt. Looking to the left, she spotted a body. A girl? She looked to be younger than Aoi herself. Inching closer, she saw that the girl was badly hurt and weak. Gasping lightly, she rushed over, and picked the girl up. Aoi pulled her onto her back and poofed back to her house. Laying her on the couch, she rushed to get teh first aid kit.

Flinching, she started to clean up the girl, and couldnt' get rid of a sinking feeling that she knew the girl. Glancing down, she noticed a silver chain on her neck. curiously, Aoi blinked and pulled it up from under the girl's shirt.

Sucking in a deep breath, Aoi's eyes widened as she held the heart locket limply in her hand. Shakely she looked at the girls face, pushing back a layer of bangs.
