Kimimaro was constantly confused by his twin Doraihone (Dry bone if your wondering, don't blame me Kimimaro means a person with thin or no eyebrows). His brother was always working and chatting with him about things he couldn't follow. It was nice.
He would constantly talk to him in a energetic mood about Chakra, there abilities, and breathing. Doraihone encourage him to participate with him in exercising and practicing breathing techniques. They had both reached the stage which his brother had called "Constant Total concentration breathing." He also taught him how to fight.
When Kimimaro asked why his brother worked so hard to improve and teach. He just smiled and said: "We need to be strong so we can be free." Kimimaro didn't get it.
They were both 10 and had been in this cage ever since they remembered. The patriarch as his brother called him kept them there because of there ability. How could his brother want freedom when he never experienced it. Kimimaro didn't know what freedom was.
"Onii-chan," Kimimaro asked his brother who was currently on his hands pushing himself up and down. "Yeah." Doraihone said pushing of and landing at his feet.
"Why do you wish for freedom. I don't even know what it is. Whatever it is we'll never get it." He said trembling in his sitting position.
"Ooowww!" he said rubbing his head that his brother just hit with a bone. "Don't be like that. We'll get out of here!" his brother declared.
Kimimaro frowned. "But how?" he asked wondering. His brother just grinned. "Through hard work and training of course. And my genuis!" he declared. "The only reason were still in here is because there currently stronger then us, once that changes we'll be out of here." he said.
Kimimaro was still doubtful, but his brother made him stronger. He was constantly working with Chakra and teaching him kenjutsu called "Wind breathing". He would also talk to him about different ways people used Chakra when the clan sent them out ot fight. Needless to say they were both strong for there age, but not strong enough to get out.
"Don't worry, we'll get out soon." Doraihone said seriously. Kimimaro looked at his brother since well he was usually the caring older brother, when he got serious he was cold. He went like this whenever he was going to pit his all in it. Not like the face he puts on for the clan.
Doraihone went back to exercising and Kimimaro joined him soon. His brother was right, staying still will not them free.
...
Kimimaro and Doraihone where meditating quietly and focusing on controlling there Chakra when Doraihone opened and his and stayed expressionless. "People are coming." he said.
They both got up and waited for there visiter. The clan patriarch soon entered and opened the door with a grin.
'So another battle coming.' Kimimaro thought solemnly, he didn't take pleasure in battle despite his talent, his brother was different as he was a bit of a battle junky. Not on the level of there clan, he just enjoyed the challenge.
Doraihone eyes flashed momentarily as he thought that they might finally be able to leave. He was stronger then his brother and he made him stronger so he wasn't worried about them not making it out alive. He had been waiting for them to get out for years, could today be the day.
They walked out into the evening sun as there eyes adjusted. "The clan needs your power Kimimaro, Doraihone." he said before walking.
They were soon in a dark clearing with the warriors of the Kaguya clan around them. "Kimimaro, Doraihone, you have the most powerful Shikotsumyaku in the history of our tribe. Go forth and kill all in the mist village." the clan head said as he and the warrior vanished in a blur.
Kimimaro and Doraihone soon were on there way down a path with a bone dagger in Kimimaro hand, and Doraihone holding a bone short sword.
'Were going to finally get out.' he thought looking at his brother. 'Were going to be free.'
The feeling he had was intoxicating.
