It is officially my first day in the cell. I wake up, my back is hurting, I'm sleepy, but can't found the force to sleep, not with my back.

I dealt with it, stretched my limbs and started my routine.

It's around 8 A.M right now.

4 hours later, food had arrived, though it's really just a piece of bread, soup and water. There was enough for me and Tayuya.

I was slightly disgusted by it, Tayuya just gulped her portion down as quickly as she could, making a weird face when she did.

"This shit is getting worse everyday I eat it." She said.

"How long have you been in here anyway?"

"Around 2 Months. And I cant wait to get out." I feel bad knowing that we're stuck her for at least another 7 to 9 years. Until Orochimaru decides to to create the sound Four.

Oh god the sound four! Does that mean I'll have to kill Tayuya? I can't remember how they were chosen. I think a giant brawl.

Deciding to not think about it, I grabbed my bowl of soup. I was about to eat whatever that soup was when a stomach growled, not mine or Tayuya's though. It was the old man's one. If I recalled correctly, tayuya had said he hadn't eaten in the last 3 days.

I silently stared at my food, before sighing inaudibly.

I got up and went to where he was chained on the wall

Tayuya reacted, "Don't! The guards told us to ignore him! You'll end up like him."

I looked at her and put my finger on my lips, "I can't be bothered to have flying fuck about what the guards want. If you don't say anything no one will know." she huffed, but turned her around and pretended to be sleeping.

The old man spared a glance at me, "Eat it kid, you'll need it more than me." he said, His voice was raspy and weak.

"I'm not hungry, I can survive a day without eating." I said simply. He tried to stop me, but I lightly whacked him, not that it hurts in my opinion, I'm only 5 after all.

The man lightly smiled, I could see a small tear forming in his eyes.

I fed him the soup, God I look like a mother feeding her child! He gulped it down. He wasn't even fazed by the taste it seemed like.

I'm probably gonna catch hell for it, but I don't care.

I went back to grab my portion of water and drank half, Giving him the other half.

A small thump was heard, before Tayuya appeared next to me, handing over her piece of bread. A silent 'I'm not hungry either.' leaving her lips, she hoped back to her bed.

"Thank you. Thank you very much you two." His smile was still here, He had tears in the corner of his eyes. "I won't ever be able to repay you two."

I smiled. "No Problem old man."

"I'm Gisei. You should quickly get away, before the guards notices."

"Well then Gisei, glad to meet you, I'm Jin."

Mom always told me to help people that needed it.

Thinking about my mother wiped the smile off my face. I wonder how she's doing now? Knowing his son died in an explosion at the age of 19.

"You Okay kid?" Gisei Asked me.

I shook my head, locking that train of thoughts away. "S'okay, just thinking of my family, wondering if they're sill alive, somewhere."

"Ah. I have a daughter, it's been 10 years since I saw her. I hope she's doing fine." He told me.

"You've been here for 10 years?" I said surprised, 10 years in a cell, With Orochimaru experimenting on everyone.

"Yes, I may not look like it right now, but I was a ninja before this, A Jonin of Konoha actually. I've been on more dangerous mission than I can count."

An Idea bloomed in my head.

"Hey, can you share some stories with me then? To pass time, and after that give me a few pointers?" I tried the puppy eyes on him, hoping it would work.

I could hear Tayuya shuffle in her bed, probably to listen no doubt.

"Sure, I'll start from when I became a genin, I became a genin at the age of 5…"

the hours passed, the sound of Gisei voice resounded in the room as he told us his life story.

---Break---

(Later that day)

"...My teammates died on the mission, and I was unlucky enough to be found by Orochimaru, who found in me a new test subject."

I silently listened as finished his story of how he was captured. I was sitting in front of him, Tayuya at some point joined us and sat next to me.

It was around 7 P.M, now, we've been listening to him for the past 5 hours.

"You fought in 2 wars?"

"Yup Kid, I really hope that I'll never have to fight a 3rd one. The first two were horrible enough."

"You're pretty good for an old geezer if half those things you said are true." Tayuya Said.

"I was not a Jonin for nothing, I did more S rank missions than you have fingers you know." He grinned, before looking at me. "Now, if I remember correctly you wanted help to train?"

I nodded, "Yes, I'd rather know how to fight if I am unlucky enough to fight someone else here, I'm pretty sure not everyone here is as nice as you or Chibi-yuya."

We both ignored the way Tayuya told me to fuck off, It was fun riling her up sometimes."Well, They should liberate me today, I'll be able to teach you both a thing or two."

"Do you know a way for us to discover our affinities?" I really hope I'll be able to spew fire everywhere! It'll be a lot of fun!

"I can help with that, please free my right hand." I did as he said, using the same knife.

He put his hand on my forehead, it started glowing white, before turning an ocean blue. "Looks like you have an affinity towards water, a strong one at that."

How did he do that?

He chuckled, My face must have betrayed my thoughts. "It is something only I can do, a rare sensing ability, by connecting myself with the chakra paths of someone I can learn their affinity, and register what their chakra feel like."

"My turn." Tayuya pushed me and put herself in front of him.

He did the same, his hand turning from white to a pale green, he retracted his hand.

"An affinity towards wind It's not strong but not weak either." He said. Tayuya was happy netherless.

"Now, Unfortunatly for you both, I have none of them, I myself have an affinity for Earth. But I do know some jutsus from both, and I can help you with taijutsu or genjutsu. We just need to wait for the guards to liberate me. After that I'll teach you both the Water and Wind Bullet."

And so we waited, the guards arrived 2 hours later, ordered us to put ourselves against the wall, they freed Gisei from the bindings.

"You have a week, after that you'll fight to death in one of the pit as punishment for your actions." The guard told Gisei.

The guard turned towards us, "As for you two, we know you disobeyed the rules, since you are both new here, we'll let you get away with a warning this time, after that, you will follow the same treatments as him." He glared at us, and we nodded.

With those words, he locked the cell once again. And we breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, that went better than I could've expected." Gisei said once they were out of range.

"Now, I'm gonna start teaching you both. It'll be like the time I had a team." Gisei took on a menacing grin, Tayuya and I both shuddered.

Maybe this was a bad idea.

Who could've guessed that Gisei was a drill Sergent-like teacher.

-----------------------------------------Omake-------------------------------------------------

---Tortu... training with Gisei---

---Next day---

"Now, Usually I would've started by making you two run as much laps in 60 seconds around training ground 18, but we are not in Konoha. So we're going to skip that. Instead you are going to do push ups, As much as you can in 60 seconds" He demonstrated what a push up was.

I was about to start, but a sudden weight almost crushed me to the ground.

"Oof, what the-" Gisei had put a rock on my back.

"With this on your back." His smile was Demonic. Where did he even find a rock?!

The answer is, he created them.

He put one on Tayuya, smaller than mine.

I call favoritism!

Not that Tayuya cared, the glare she sent me for roping her into this would've killed a lesser man.

"Jin, You're slacking, go at it! before I decide that 60 seconds is too short for you." Gisei said. "And after you guys are done, we'll go on with sit-ups and pull-ups! So many things to do!"

Fuck.
