Pein and Konan returned home only a few days later from their mission, but nothing could have prepared them for what awaited them when they walked in the front door.
"P-pein..." Zetsu moaned as he lay on the living room floor. "H-help..."
Konan ran to Zetsu's side, trying to relax the obviously terrified boy, and Pein clenched his jaw in anger -- he knew that he had done the wrong thing by leaving Zetsu alone with Madara, but they had no other choice.
Pein winced as he heard Zetsu cry out loudly when Konan moved him, and he felt anger override his emotions.
"MADARA!" Pein shouted out, stomping into his own bedroom, finding Madara fast asleep in the silky bed covers. "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO?"
Madara awoke and sat up. He smirked, shrugging. Pein growled, lunging at Madara, furious. He soon gasped for air when Madara met his stomach with a powerful kick.
"What was that, Pein?" Madara laughed, sitting up on the bed. "You looking for a fight? You know what happens when you go against me..."
  Pein, realising who he was up against and remembering what happened every other time Madara had gotten angry at him, shivered from his position on the floor. Madara could kill him with ease, and he had already come close to doing it multiple times.
-LINEBREAK-
Konan covered Zetsu's ears as she heard the commotion from the bedroom. It was obvious who was winning -- all Konan could hear were Pein's cries and whimpers and Madara laughing insanely.
"It's alright, Zetsu." Konan whispered, leaning down to kiss the child on the head. "It's all alright. Madara will leave soon and Pein will be fine."
Zetsu whimpered, burying his face in Konan's chest. His entire body burned and ached. Both of his arms were broken, several ribs were fractured and his knee was dislocated -- all of this among the many bruises and cuts on the small boy's body.
Konan held him tighter, hating how this happened so often between Pein and Madara.
Konan shook her head, knowing that even when Madara did leave, Pein wouldn’t talk to anyone or leave the bed -- he would just lay under the covers in silence, contemplating something. She stood up with Zetsu in her arms, bringing him into Pein's study and grabbing some paper and a pen.
Pein, she wrote, I've gone to take Zetsu to a hospital and I don’t know when I will be back. If you are up to coming to the hospital when you read this, I've taken the direct route to the hospital and will take it when coming home, so don’t go the other ways or we'll miss each other. Love, Konan.
Zetsu shivered in Konan's hold, obviously still in shock by whatever Madara had done to him. Speaking of Madara, the bastard was just leaving the bedroom now, specs of blood on his face, his hands and sandals coated in it. He smirked at Konan, mockingly waving at her and Zetsu.
"I'll be going now," he said smugly. "Unlike you, I have to take care of my nephew."
Konan narrowed her eyes. What was he implying? She glared at the male, watching him leave, hatred in her gaze.
-LINEBREAK-
Konan hated hospitals. She hated them with a passion. She hated the long wait it took just for someone to add you to a list, and she hated how it took even longer for someone just to come and call your name to see you. But what she hated the most was how staff didn’t care about any of their patients. She was willing to bet Pein's life that the doctor that was to treat Zetsu wouldn’t give one shit about him.
"Zetsu Seishin?" Someone finally called after almost two hours of waiting.
Konan stood with a sigh, holding the quaking bundle in her arms. Zetsu hadn’t stopped shaking ever since they had left the house.
"Ahh, so this is Zetsu-kun?" The doctor asked with pure dislike in his voice. "I'm sorry, but we don’t treat such... unnatural things..."
Konan, by this point, was just barely containing her emotions, and if she was lacking in just a tiny bit of self-control right now she would have punched the doctor out.
"Can’t you see he's suffering?" Konan all but shouted at the doctor. "He needs help! God, he can’t even breathe properly!”
"I'm sorry, but that's none of my concern. Go take him elsewhere."
Konan had heard enough. She didn’t hold back as she punched the doctor in the face. When he fell to the ground she shouted, "You're not sorry at all, you fucking asshole!"
Her sudden outburst had Zetsu in hysterics and she knew right there that were was nothing she could do for him besides take him back home and hope that he would heal.
-LINEBREAK-
Pein lay on the bed. He didn't move – he was just breathing softly and slowly, staring at the same crack in the wall he had been staring at for the last three hours. He always did this every time Madara 'disciplined' him -- he would just lie on the bed, not moving a muscle for hours and just stare at the same spot. He wouldn’t even speak when Konan spoke to him, and if she would try and move him, he would go limp in her hold and flop back down into a new position whenever and wherever Konan dropped him.
Pein heard the front door opening again and he unconsciously tensed -- though he wouldn’t admit it to anyone, Pein was scared of Madara. He hated that wretched man but had no choice but to ally with him.
Pein relaxed when he heard Konan calling out to him, telling him that she was back from wherever she had gone. He listened -- not taking his eyes off of the crack in the wall -- but he never spoke. Not even when Konan had entered the room, asking for help with Zetsu.
"Pein..." Konan whispered sadly, sitting on the edge of the bed, stroking Pein's face gently. "It'll be okay..."
Relaxed deeply by Konan's soothing presence, he closed his eyes, allowing a troubled sleep to take over him.
-LINEBREAK-
It took two days for Pein to step foot out of his room. He was quiet and had masked his chakra, still in slight fear that Madara was around. Konan knew that Pein was scared of Madara but she also knew better than to say anything. She hated how Madara made Pein so nervous and agitated for a few days after every visit -- but Madara seemed to have that effect on everyone.
Pein came into the kitchen quietly. He looked around, fear in his ringed eyes, before spotting Zetsu sitting in a chair with Konan feeding him.
"How is he?" Pein asked quietly, almost not wanting to be heard.
Konan smiled at Pein. "He's okay now... The hospital wouldn’t admit him so I did what I could and we're letting the rest heal on its own... both of his arms are broken and so is one of his legs... and he had some fractured ribs... but he's alright. He just needs to rest."
Pein ran his gaze over Zetsu, shaking his head in disbelief at all of the bruises and cuts still visible underneath the bandages. He sat down next to Zetsu, stroking the boy's hair comfortingly.
"P-pein..." Zetsu whispered, blushing shyly, staring at the ground. "T-thank you..."
"For what?"
  "For..." Zetsu blushed darker at this. "For loving us."
Pein smiled at Zetsu, leaning down and kissing Zetsu on the forehead. Zetsu's blush turned even darker if that was possible, and he fidgeted nervously in his seat.
Pein smiled at Zetsu before grabbing a bowl from the dish rack and pouring some cereal into it. He ate slowly as he read the newspaper.
Just minutes later he was interrupted by a small tapping on the window. Pein looked up, seeing a messenger bird pecking on the window with a letter tied to its leg.
"Birdy!" Zetsu exclaimed happily, smiling.
"Do you like birds, Zetsu?" Konan smiled.
"The little ones we do. The big ones scare us."
Pein laughed a little and Konan grinned happily -- whenever Pein would shut off from the world because of Madara, it normally took him weeks before even smiling again, let alone laughing. Zetsu really was doing something positive for Pein, wasn’t he?
Pein opened the letter, paling as he saw who it was from.
"It's from Madara…" Pein whispered, hands trembling as he read further. "He wants us to come to his house next week to discuss further plans for the organisation and... he needs someone to look after his nephew…”
Konan shook his head. "I don’t even know why he has that kid. He can’t look after it!”
"He's not an 'it', Konan -- he's only a baby." Pein said soothingly.
Zetsu tugged on Konan's sleeve.
"Does... he have a baby?" Konan nodded. "Does... he do bad things to the baby…?"
Konan tilted her head, realising what he had meant.
  "I don’t think so, sweetie... I think he actually does love the baby deeply but has trouble showing it... it's really the only part of his family he has left to remember them by. He doesn’t have any other family left."
Zetsu nodded.
