[Opening Excerpt]

Torchlight flickered around Juo, lighting his way through the tunnels as he descended deep into the Grass's underground. He was surrounded side to side, overhead, and underfoot by hard-packed dirt and stone. Torches were placed evenly along the left-hand wall, casting a ruddy glow and moving shadows on the opposite wall. He did not really need the light. He could find his way through the catacombs in pitch darkness, as all Grass Shinobi could, but it was the duty of the Genin to keep the way lit, and he would never inhibit duty.

"Juo…?"

His name was breathed in a trepid whisper, confidence wavering like the flicker of a candle flame. He turned his head to see who spoke to a Jounin of his reputation with such temerity.

She was crouched on the ground, her wrists hanging limply over her knees. Her short dark hair was disheveled. Her vest—the color of grass in summer—was unlaced, revealing a mud-colored mesh shirt beneath it. Tan boots covered her legs from toe to knee, but the tops of her knees were dusty and bruised.

Last he saw her, she was leaving Marnix's chambers in the same state of half undress. It sickened him to see her.

"Juo—"

"Don't say anything, Kaia."

The walls are always listening.

She ignored his warning, lifting her face from her knees as he approached. "Don't make me go back," she croaked from the ground. "There is something wrong with that man, Juo."
