…

Yami looked at the mouse as the strange energy produced by the cube entered the little thing. As soon as it did so the mouse stopped struggling and a black cocoon surrounded the small mouse, it looked like a black egg, that could easily fit on the palm of someone's hand. 

And as the minutes passed by, with only Yami's breathing as the only sound in the room. Suddenly the cocoon started expanding little by little until it went from being able to fit on someone's palm. 

To become as big as a chair, and that is when the cocoon started cracking open like an egg. The cocoon parts slowly fell down and as it did so it turned into smoke. But Yami didn't even look at it, what he looked at was the not so little rat anymore. 

It was a creature in the form of a rat, and it was so big that if he stood up, it would reach up to his knees. 

The rat was already brain dead from Yami's ceaseless examination on it, to try and see if he was some spy for someone else. So the rat just stood there, not moving at all. 

Yami noticed that not only was the rat bigger, but his brown fur from before had turned to black fur. His eyes also turned to completely red and under that fur, he could see the muscles under that thing. 

He analyzed that this little creature went from a normal weak rat, to probably being able to rip apart the average ninja academy student to death, even his chakra was at that of the average human.

Though your average Genin would wipe the floor with this rat...

But as the rat's teeth but his hand, they couldn't even draw blood. Yami's skin has been modified like the rest of his body. It is as hard as a rock, and even though the rat might be stronger, he is still only a rat. No matter how it changes, it still couldn't bite through rock. 

As he saw this Yami also noted that the rat's teeth had become more jagged, like the fangs of a predatory animal. 

He noticed that even though the creature is brain dead, it still had the instinct to protect itself. 

Also, the small cut that he made, healed quite quickly.

'Hmmm... this is interesting.' Thought Yami as he kept, making small cuts on the rat. And as it tried to bite him, Yami simply sent a chakra shockwave to its brain. Immediately knocking him out.

....

Then after a whole hour of Yami experimenting on the thing. He finally got what he wanted to know and killed it off, also burning its body. 

'No one is getting anything from my research.' Thought Yami as he walked out of his tent. He made a clone to act like him, and...

*fwosh*

....

-GENERAL POV-

Mei Terumi wasn't someone cruel or anything like that, all she wanted in life was to have a normal family, a normal husband, a normal life. 

But as she got closer to the camp, she could feel like her own blood was lava. His stomach was churning in disgust. She knows that she will become something that she will hate. Someone without power or familiar love, someone that when she births enough children she will simply be killed. 

The reality drowned on her like an ocean, her legs were noodles, her eyes felt like they had bleach in them and her whole body was cold.

She was feeling physically sick from this, and when they arrived at the Konoha Camp. Her worries skyrocketed, as she saw someone that she knew of, to be waiting at the gates.

It was Orochimaru, and he had a predatory look on his golden eyes. His hands were in his pockets as he leaned on a tree.

His malicious smile, made her feel chills down her spine as if the ice was poured on her back. Even the cold mask she had on started cracking.

But suddenly out of nowhere.

A dark flash appeared, and a person came out of it. He was wearing a Jonin uniform, his hair was black and slightly spiky, but what caught Mei's attention wasn't his smile or his friendly looking face.... it was his eyes as he looked at Orochimaru. He had a strange cold look in his eyes.

...

Orochimaru's face now had a frown on it, and his eyes had a certain gleam to them. When he noticed that Yami was here he didn't protest, but he was displeased, he wanted to experiment on Mei a little before Yami got her. 

Plus unlike the other people in here, he noticed that this wasn't just Yami's clone, it was Yami himself, so he can't go around messing with him. He knows how dangerous Yami can be...

*tch* 'That was unfortunate if only he didn't have these little mosquitoes all over my camp, monitoring everything that happened in here. I would have had time to experiment with the girl before he came here. If those mosquitoes didn't exist he wouldn't be this troublesome...' Thought Orochimaru as he went back inside the camp towards his tent. Ready to experiment on some unlucky fellow.

...

As Orochimaru was walking back to his camp. Yami just looked at Orochimaru's back. Contemplating something, his brain brewing hundreds of different ideas, schemes, and plans.

But even as he was thinking this he looked back towards Hachi, Kai, Shoto, Momo, and Mei. 

Kai, as an Inuzuka, obviously has a lot of respect for Yami. After all, he is the one who rose the Inuzuka Clan to the powerhouse it is today. 

"Well hello, there child. I hope you didn't have a hard journey. I know how hard it is for children to be dragged into war, away from their families." 

When Mei heard what Yami said, she somehow found the courage to speak in front of him. Whether it was Yami's friendly-looking face or her desperation that gave her the courage to speak. 

Mei didn't know this, as she said: "My father is dead, killed by you during the 2nd Ninja War, he was the pillar and protector of the Terumi Clan. My mother also died of sickness not long after that. My clan is in decline and will most likely die out because of you, Yami Inuzuka."

When she said this Mei predicted a lot of ways Yami would act, he could be angry, not care, or even surprised. But his reaction truly baffled her as Yami simply just... laughed...

"HAHAHAHAHA!!" His voice melodious and his laughter loud, as if he had just heard the funniest joke ever told...

Hope you guys like it... I just gave you a glimpse of The Cube's power. It is nowhere near complete yet... and his real power isn't stated yet. Soon... VERY soon... things will pick up the pace... BIG THINGS WILL HAPPEN... we will also see what Yami's clones have been up to. Also, Yami is now strong enough that other people don't want in NO WAY to push his buttons and make him angry. Even Orochimaru is wary of him.

P.S: MY LITTLE BROTHER GOT BITTEN BY A FISH AT THE BEACH SO I HAD TO DRIVE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL... that is why I updated so late today. It was really just a scratch, most likely caused by a rock... the little sh*t worried me for nothing.????????????
