Chapter shout outs to our newest members!!! Shellbellinfinity and.... What... It's only Shellbellinfinity!!! She is the only one that wanted to become a gakusei!!!!!!!! O.O
Well it looks like she is the only one that gets a cookie this week for being awesome!!
So random little dissociation thing. Right now I reading a harry Potter fanfic, and I noticed that, yes it is a really good story, but she only writes a page for each chapter, and it really annoys me, but I am still reading it. So here is the desecration part: Who else gets annoyed or pissed, or whatever whenever you read a story on watty that has a page for a chapter?
And I do not own any original characters from Naruto. Just Harmony, and right now, Kotori... The little bitch.
~~~~~~Re-Cap~~~~~
"Well, let's just say that a certain little bird will be getting his wings clipped." Nala snickered a little.
'Happy hunting.' Nala said to me before she turned around and began mauling all the enemy's around her with her fangs or claws, and occasionally, she froze them and used them like shields. I smirked again and the quickly turned around. 'Happy hunting.'

Chapter 33 -
No Thoughts. No Emotion. No Pain.
----------------------------
Sensei's notes: Quick note, I really suck at writing a fighting scene, so that's why this wasn't in the last chapter, because I needed more time to write it all...
It didn't take me that long to find the person I was looking for. He was still standing in the same spot that I saw him before when he was standing with the Sound ninja's. I glared at him.
"You know, you got a lot of balls to try and attack my village you son of a bitch." Kotori winced and placed a hand over his heart.
"Ouch, Harmony, such harsh language. And I thought we were friends." I slowly lifted up my kunia and pointed at him.
"No, we were not, and never will be. We will for ever will be enemies, until I no longer feel the need to place a target to where you are covering with your filthy hand right now. And I know for a fact that will be in a long, long time." He looked down at his chest and then back up to me with his cheeky smile that I hated so much right now.
"You mean my heart Harmony? Well I guess there is no need for you to target it since you have had it since before I hit the ground when you ran into me. So how about we say this is all water under the bridge, eh?" I hardened my glare and appeared behind him, my kunia now against his neck.
"We will call it water under the bridge when my village is no longer being terrorised and when both you and Orochimaru are dead." I said from behind him. He lifted a hand and tried to push the kunia away a little, but I held it firm.
"So I guessing that there would be no chance in getting you to leave the Leaf and come and run away with me?" I brought the kunia closer to his neck, making a faint trail of blood trickle down his throat and onto his should. "I guess not... Well if that's the way you want it to be..." Kotori suddenly disappeared before he finished what he was saying, but I quickly followed him into the arena. He had tooken off his jacket and was now wielding two short swords that he must have been hiding under his jacket. He moved one so it was pointing at me and then the other was being held limply. "If that's the way you want it to be, then let's dance."

I smirked and put away my single kunia, and then pulled out a mini water bottle I was storing. "That's ironic that you say that, because I love to dance. So much that it can be conceited deadly." I opening the cap a little and let some of the water splash onto my hands, quickly freezing them into senbons. I put my water bottle back away and got into my stance. There was a slight buzz in the air as I lifted my hands and activated my Kekkia Genkkai.
We stood there for a little bit, before Kotori did a little mock bow to me. "Ladies first."
I sighed at that and lazy threw one of my senbons at him, making him jump back a bit to dodge it. I then yawned and stretched my arms over my head. "I am not sure if you can call me a lady and all..." I said after I stretched and then got back into my position. Palms out, one by my face, the other level with my shoulder, both hands loaded with frozen senbons, legs shoulder-with apart. I closed my eyes and concentrated on the sound of the wind as a small breeze went by. When I re-opened my eyes, I was back to compete seriousness.
"Dansu Hana: First dance of the winds." I whispered into the wind before I took off, running straight at Kotori. It was a little bit harder to dodge all of his attacks then it was to dodge all of Zabuza's. Kotori was smaller than him, wielded to smaller swords, so he was fasters. Unlike with Zabuza, when all I had to do was maybe 'prance around' like he said, now majority of the time I had to roll or jump out of the way, throw my senbons around, then kunias at him and then deflect his swords.
After about five minutes of this, I could tell that I was getting nowhere a this. I quickly jumped away from him and into a nearby tree to catch my breath slightly. I could tell that Kotori was taking this chance to rest up and strategize. I scanned the arena and sworn under my breath. I didn't have close to enough senbons around to activate Vibrating images, and he moved too quickly for me to have only a general area to plant them all. I looked down at my body. I was already covered in dirt and sweat, and also some minor slices on my legs and arms, but the one on my back I got a while ago, had stopped bleeding, so that was good. 'I need to get him distracted, anything that could get his attention off what I am really doing...' I twirled a piece of my hair and smiled, standing up from my crouched position and formed a single handsign before I dropped out of the tree. On the ground waiting for me where two identical shadow clones.
As I dropped out of the tree both of my clones stood up. "I guess this would be the only way to distract a guy..." The clone on my left said before she sighed and held up her hands, showing that they were fully of ice senbons
"It's not like we can help it though... It's his own fault for being so stupid that he think that he could get close to me. Baka!! I am a stone that is as cold as ice. Nothing can get close to me, and every one that has is now either dead or off fighting." The clone on the right said as she too held up her senbons. I couldn't help up smile sarcastically and hold up my hands, dramatically letting Kotori see the water I had just splashed onto them, drip off and turn into two handful of senbons.

"Oi oi oi. Both of you sound like bitches, who knew that shadow clones could be so mean..." I sighed before I looked up and glared at Kotori. "I guess that shows how heartless I can really be, good, that means I will have no trouble smashing your face in! Dansu Hana! Second dance of the winds!!" After I yelled at out, all three of us began running and throwing the senbons at him, making him block with his short swords.
"Harmony, don't you think it's a little unfair to fight three-to-one? Not that I don't mind seeing even more of you." He said as he stood up and crossed his swords as my two clones surrounded him.
"No, I don't think it is unfair. You deserve to die, simple as that." All three of us said before all at the same time we sent a volley after volley of senbons at him, more so trying to hit the ground around him, but hitting him a few times also would be nice. Kotori tried to dodge as best as possible, but my clones and I were throwing far too many for him. After about five or so minutes of Kotori dodging the endless amount of senbons, I stopped throwing them and cancelled out my clones. I took one look at the porcupine Kotori before I let out a low whistle, making all the senbons vibrate, creating an ear shattering noise, forcing Kotori to the ground, covering his ears in pain. While the vibrations where still going, I walked up to Kotori and grabbed both of his short swords and the sheaths he had, before placing them on my back and sheathing one of the swords, when the vibration stated to die down and placed the blade of the other katana I held under Kotori's chin, and forced him to look up at me. I slowly moved a piece of hair from my face. During my attack, my hair had fallen out of it bun, now resting at my shoulders.
"How does it feel, to know that you are going to be killed by your own blade, the one that you have probably killed countless others with." I said in a very cold voice. Kotori looked up at me and simply smiled.
"I wouldn’t know, seeing as I won't be dying today." He said as his body stated to turn brown and get cracks in him, the same with the katana I held in my hand. 'An earth clone!' I quickly cut off the clones head before I spun around, only to meet a fist. I was pushed back form in impact of the punch Kotori threw, but I held my ground, and then wiped my check where he hit me.
"Like I said before Harmony. You are ever easy to figure out. You're from the Hidden Melody clan, so you most likely have some attacks that use sound, and seeing as you can use ice in your attacks, I would also say that you can use water and wind jutsus too. I guess you Kakkai Genkkai is like that worthless Yuki clan. But I heard that they all died out a few years ago." I clenched my fists. "Hey maybe you are really from the Yuki clan, and then took on the name Kakureta Merodi to ease the shame of your clan. The one thing I didn't expect was that Nala, the tiny cat that travelled on your shoulder, could turn into a giant thing like that. But I guess I can't blame you for wanting her, she is awesome to watch fight." I was now seething. I slowly went to pull out a kunia, but I changed my mind half way and pulled out my flute.
"I would watch my tongue if I was you. Haku, the last of the Yuki clan, was anything but worthless. Maybe a little confused on how to live, but he stood true to what he believed in. And no, I am not from the Yuki clan, the blood that runs through my veins right now is the blood of a very proud, very pissed off, member of the Hidden Melody clan. Also, yes, Haku and I do share the use of ice jutsus, but my clan uses ice for a different meaning, and it is not our full Kekkia Genkkai. If you want I will show you, but be warned, if you want that, you want me to end your life right there where you stand." Kotori cocked his head to the side.
"I just noticed, but sometimes you speak in the oddest of ways. It sounds almost like an older person speaks." He said to me. I was just about to charge at him when suddenly I was pulled back by something.
"What the-" I said when I got yanked back. Right after I was yanked, I could feel something digging into my skin and winding around me, making my arms stick to the side and my legs glued together painfully. When whatever this was harshly biting into my hands, I was forced to let go of my flute, making it land roughly onto the ground. It wasn't until I felt what ever it was binding my wrap around my neck that I knew what it was, wire, and every strong wire at that. I tried at break my way out of it, but it only tighten and cut my skin, making me bleed all over my body. I slowly turned my head and looked over my should and saw that the earth clone that I had cut down was now in one piece and tightly holding the other end of the wire that was binding me. I turned my head back and looked at the real Kotori and saw that he too was holding a piece of wire, most likely the end of some more wire tied to me. He saw me drop my flute, and them formed another Earth clone, and handed his end of the wire. He then slowly walked up to me and picked up my flute and brought it close to his face inspecting it, before he stood up and looked straight at me.
"Now you have me curious. You can do ice style jutsus, but you say that, that isn't the only part of you Kekkia Genkkai, and then you pull out this flute." He stepped back and held it to my face. "What were you planning to do, play a lullaby until I am a sleep or something?"
"If I did, I would make sure that you would have the most terrifying sleep ever, you would be begging for mercy in your sleep. Now give back Emerarudo Ongaku back and untie me, you bastard!!!" Kotori looked down at my flute and ran his fingers over it, until he found a small seem in it. He looked up at me with an arched eyebrow.
"Emerald Music? That's the name of your flute? Ha. What a stupid name." He placed a hand on each hand of my flute and applied pressure, making it snap in two, revealing the two special kunias on the inside. He placed a finger on the blade to check the sharpness, and seemed impressed by it. "Any other little surprise from you. I am guessing this is your weapon of choice beside those frozen senbons I see that you love so much." He put my flute back into one piece and held it in his hand and held it in front of him, almost close enough for me to reach if my arms weren't bound.
"Now, I am wondering, how long have you had this flute for." I didn't answer him, just heated up my glare. Kotori dropped his arm and came closer to me. "Ah, come-on Harmony, it's just one simple answer." Instead of answering him, I spat right in his face.
"There's your answer, jack-ass!" I said to him as he wiped the spit off his cheek, and then punched me right in the face, making me spit some blood out of my mouth. I smiled cockily at him.
"Yeah... this is defiantly the way to convince a girl to run away with you. Try and destroy her village, fight her, hold her captive, and then beat her when she can't fight back. You are defiantly ranking up points Kotori." I said sarcastically at him, but only earned having the wire cut into my skin more as the two clones tighten their hold on me. Right now, blood was flowing freely down my arms, chest, and legs. The whole time I was biting the inside of my check, not giving him the satisfaction to hear my cries of pain, Kotori was looking down at my flute, running his filthy, blood stained hands all over it.
"I would say, judging from the how bad you want this bad, and all the scratches on this, I would say that you have had it for a very long time. Now, if you have had it for as long as I think you do, I wonder how you would react if I... Oh I don't know... Destroy it." I could feel the blood run from my face, but I tried to kept my emotion as hard as stone. 'He's bluffing, he has to be!!'
"You wouldn’t dare." I said in a low tone as I once again tried to break from my bonds.
"Ah, finally an emotional responce I can work with. How about this. You give up fighting and the life of a Leaf kunoichi and come with me, or I will destroy your precious, what did you call it again... Emerarudo Ongaku?" I struggled even harder against my bonds, past the point of caring if the bite into my flesh.
"You can go die in a hole for all I care!!!" I shouted at him, making the wire around my neck sting. Kotori sighed and hung his head.
"Oh well... Guess there is nothing I can do now...." He bounced my flute a few times on his hand, before he threw it into the air right above him as he did a few handsigns. " Fire Release! Fire Dragon Flame Missile!!" After he said that, he exhaled a giant stream of fire, like a flamethrower, directly to where my flute was in the air. The flames where so hot that I coudl feel the scorching heat on the ground, and the flames he controlled where pure white. I had no doubt in my mind that he was able to, and was, burning my flute right before my eyes.
After a few agonizing seconds, to me it seemed like hours, Kotori stopped his jutsu, hautling the flames, and letting black ash fall from the sky that was once a beautiful emerald coloured flute. I stopped my struggle as I watched the black ash fall from the sky. A single piece of ash fell onto my hand, marking the spot black before I gentily smudged it. I knew that I should have been crying at that point, for I had just lost one of my most important things, and the last thing I held that reminded me of my family when they were alive and happy, but i think I was too worn down inside from all the hell I have had recently, that my body just couldn’t cry, couldn't show any sadness. I just watched with a blank face, hair covering my eyes, and for some reason, my back and right above my heart in pain, and with each throb, increasing.
I stared blankly at the ground as I thought I heard Kotori say something to me, but to me, it was all nonsense, like I was underwater, or in a fog, and I couldn't tell what was going on. Even when I felt the wire get tugged, I didn't react.
"Mother... Father... Grandpa... Big Brother..." I slowly said to myself. "Mother... Father... Grandpa... Big Brother... Minato-sensei... Kushina... Obito... Rin..." I slowly looked up at Kotori. "Mother... Father... Grandpa... Big Brother... Minato-sensei... Kushina... Obito... Rin..." I said under my breath as I looked at him, but he paid me no mind. I closed my eyes, saying the same thing over and over again, all most chanting it, and slowly, I got louder and louder and louder, and my mind slowly ridding itself of the poisonous fog. I watched as the clone in front of me began to do some handsigns, and most likely, the one behind me, doing the same thing.
"Mother... Father... Grandpa... Big Brother... Minato-sensei... Kushina... Obito... Rin..." I said once again, almost to my normal speaking voice. "Mother... Father... Grandpa... Big Brother... Minato-sensei... Kushina... Obito... Rin... Kakashi.. Sasuke. Sakura. Nala. Rin. Naruto!"
"Good bye, Harmony, have a sweet time in the afterlife." I faintly heard Kotori say to me before both of his clones yelled out their jutsu, and sent a wave of flames, from in front and behind, across the wire that they held that led to me. I looked Kotori straight in the eyes.
"Mother!! Father!! Grandpa!!! Big brother!! Minato-sensei!!! Kushina!!! Obito!! Rin!!! Kakashi!!! Sasuke!!! Sakura!!! Nala!!! Rin!!! And Naruto!!! These are the ones that you will have to answer to after all of this!!! In this life and the next!!!!!" I yelled at him before I was enveloped in scorching pain that surrounded me. I didn't scream at the top of my lungs when I felt myself start to be burnt alive, no I laughed. I laughed. I had finally lost my sanity, something that I didn't know if it has ever going to happen or not because of all the good times and bad times that I have gone thought, but it seemed like a perfect time for me to lose it now. I felt the wires holding me heat up was the fire continued, but I could also feel that they had loosed their hold on me, making it easy for me to break them now. I was way past the point of recognizing pain as I inhaled the burning air around and crossed my arms in front of me and bent my head back. I usually don't like having to use this stage, seeing as it knocked me unconscious the moment I ended it, but it was the only thing I had going for me right now.
"Dansu Hana!! The Third and Final Dance of the Winds!!"
---------------- 3rd POV--------------
Kotori watched as the flames of his Dragon Fire Missile Technique before he turned away and wiped off some black ash from his shoulder.
'So much to bring her with me... Eh... I can just go and find a new play thing whenever I want...' He said to himself in his mind. He stared too walk away when he turned around and looked at the flames, confused on the sounds coming from the flames.

8 77Living With Magic
Arthur, a young magician, is struggling with crippling social anxiety. The issue has reached a point where he likely won't graduate from University. Reaching a crossroads, he must decide whether to try and return to a family he despises or make his own path in the world. Is the magical power he has actually beneficial in the real world? Authors Note: I'm terrible at writing a synopsis, but over time I hope to write a better one. One of my favorite series of books is the Magicians by Lev Grossman and I hope to follow that same line of thinking within my story. How would a society built around magic actually exist and is power and magic actually as great as other stories make it out to be? The story and characters will be completely original and I will try to update the story on a regular basis. Also, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
