Orochimaru let out a sigh as he stared at the Akatsuki HQ for the last time. Sure, it was he would had decided to leave the accursed group of criminals, but he couldn't help but feel at least a bit sad about leaving. 'I guess this is it...' he thought as he spun around and began to walk away.
"Orochimaru...you're not really leaving...are you?"
Orochimaru's eyes widened in shock as he saw Konan appear before him with a worried look in her eyes. 'Oh, shit!' Orochimaru thought nervously, 'Now she's gonna either kill me or tell the others where I'm going! This isn't good!'

Orochimaru stood there for a few silent moments before walking past Konan, gently kissing her on the cheek as he passed. "I still won't tell them where you're going, Orochimaru...I promise..." Konan said sadly as Orochimaru disappeared into the oncoming darkness...
