"We were both experimented on by bad people." Renkaji said, his voice void of emotion but held traces of pain in it, "Saving you from the Akatsuki the first time you'd been captured was the only the driving me all the time I was blind. I was determined to help you anyway I could. Yet, when I found you had already been rescued when I found my way to the Hidden Leaf, I was crushed because I never met you. Flash forward to a few months ago, and I witness you get captured again. For a month, I ran myself almost to the grave trying to find you. Once I did find you, I failed again to save you. True, I helped save you, but I felt in my heart I failed because I failed to keep a vow I made to myself. I failed to let nothing stop me from protecting you. What's worse is I realized that that whole month I was chasing after you, I felt like everyone could see right through me and see how broken I was. I wasn't ready to admit I had fallen for you, even if we'd just met."<br/><br/>His body language was guarded, almost borderline reactive. His eyes couldn't be seen but he was crying. Light shimmered through the drops as he let them fall freely. Sobbing quietly, his pain was on full display for the first time. His spirit, which could be sensed through his Chakra, was completely shattered into millions of pieces.
