Chapter 14
Truths
“I hope you’re calling to tell me you have retrieved the package and you are on your way back” The voice drawled lightly over the phone. There was a dark air to the man’s tone though. Itachi closed his eyes his impassive face shifting lightly as Kisame groaned on the spot. He was getting blood everywhere and it was quite annoying. So were the sounds of sirens and approaching officers.
“No.” He said simply, before he continued, “My brother’s abilities, the ones that were...promised to be unremarkable. They have woken up” His voice remained flat as he spoke the words despite the anger he knew it would cause the man. Not that he even really considered him a man at all anymore.
“Repeat that to me once more Itachi Uchiha” The voice hissed quietly, Itachi’s eyes narrowed ever so slightly.
“You heard me.”Itachi replied in turn without hesitation. “His abilities are just as capable as my own. If not more. It will be quite the hindrance to kill him”
“Hindrance?! That is your job. To remove him as an obstacle. You had told me that when they met, Naruto would kill him on sight. Did he do that? No. He did not. And now you’re telling me that that his abilities, the ones that were promised did not exist have now flared to life. How has this mission not become a failure on your part?” The snarled voice was strained and dangerous. “Or is this the way you show affection for your little brother, by letting him get away? Ahh…that must be it then.” The voice lilted in a sickening sweet kind of way.
“I have no affection for my brother. You know this. However you are losing someone with rare abilities, and rarer talent to use them.” Itachi kept his tone even and Kisame’s snarling noises had him furrowing his eyebrows in brief disgust.
“He is a failure, and a liability. He obviously has no loyalty to our cause, and never did. I want that tattoo peeled from his damned skin. I want his head parted from his shoulders. I want it done.” There was a pause and the sound of a glass clinking on the table. “This is taking far longer than it ever should have. I am sending another. He will make sure you complete every stage of your mission.”
The phone line went dead and slowly Itachi lowered it. His fingers tightened around the phone momentarily. The world around them stilled as if time itself seemed to pause before his fingers loosened, the world snapped back to normal. He could hear someone yelling towards them but he ignored it. “If you are dying I will leave you here with the rest of the bodies” He commented, he was already turning away from the scene. There was too much at stake as it was.
Kisame snarled angrily. “I’m not fucking dying. I’m going to kill those fucking brats. All of them. And nothing you can do will stop me” He was already staggering towards him.
“Both of you! I need you to come with me we have reports we have to make--!”
Itachi felt the warm blood from the officers smashed skull splash across his cheek. He reached up and smeared the blood from his pale skin even as the body crumpled. Someone screamed.
“I will kill them all. Including that fucking brother of yours!” Kisame’s dripping bat hung in his hand.
Itachi’s eyes flashed a moment towards him, the twisting black iris’s spread. Kisame went rigid on the spot, agony and terror rippling over his features the garish lips pulled back revealing the razor sharp teeth. It was over in a split second but Kisame had dropped to one knee panting hard.
“We will stick to the plan.” Itachi's voice was a silky whisper as he moved away leaving the carnage of the road behind them and the chaos of the casualties. He heard the staggering steps behind him but they stopped short to his right side as Kisame fell in line. They would stick to the plan. He would make sure no one got their hands on that beast. Least of all him.

Neji was sitting up, everything hurt but at least the pain told him he was alive.Sakura wasn't’t happy about him not laying down but he was insistent.
“We deserve a much better explanation. You will tell us everything.” He was repeating this of course. Neither Iruka nor Kakashi seemed willing to answer any simple questions he had put forth. Now he was demanding it. They had to know every aspect to this story before they could continue. Not just that, both Naruto and Sasuke had not arrived. He would not risk sending anyone out to find them unless he knew the entire truth.
“Kiba keep Akamaru on that damn door. No one is leaving until we know everything” His fingers gripped briefly at his knees as he took a steadying breath. He heard the large dog whine but limp over to the door and obediently sit in front of it.
“Maybe you should lay down Neji, get some rest. You need to heal” Iruka cleared his throat unhappily but Neji scowled. “No.” He bit the word out. “We are not children and we will not be coddled further. I want information, and I want it all.”
“Well that’s quite a story, do you think we should really be telling it with us all on the run, you know from Sasuke's psychotic brother?” Kakashi mused idly from his seat, his hands resting on the back of his chair holding one of those perverted books that he seemed to enjoy. He shifted his gaze but it was Shikamaru who went to pluck the book from the hand.
In a blink of an eye the shadow manipulator was on the ground, but just as quickly Kakashi was trapped in his position over him.
“Damn you move fast” Shikamaru mumbled glancing towards Neji, one of his hands hovered over the floor creating the shadow he had used to grab Kakashi. It was the uncovered eye that had Shikamaru’s body stilling his own eyes widening. When had he done that?!
“Enough!” Iruka snapped, “This isn’t the time to be putting the ‘pups in their place’ Kakashi” He warned him, “Shikamaru, release him” He turned his head towards Neji hearing the chair scrape as Kakashi plopped back in, and the hacker mumbled dark curses under a shakey breath as he got up.
“Pups in their place?! This is a load of bullcrap, what have you both been feeding us this entire time?" Kiba looked over at his dog and back at Iruka. He was pissed his dog had gotten hurt to begin with but this was just the icing on the fucking cake! “Fuck! And this whole thing with Sasuke! Akamaru has said from day one Sasuke was a familiar scent. Day. Fucking. One!” He held up a finger. “Not that any of you assholes believed me...” he grumbled glaring at the others.
“Well we believe you now.” Sakura said soothingly before glaring at Iruka her fists balling, “Why don’t you start in the beginning. Because none of us are leaving until we know exactly what happened. Exactly what we are. And…” She looked to Neji. Oh she was very aware of their conversation last night. “And if Orochimaru is still alive.”
The older men both exchanged looks while Ino and Kiba gasped at her words. “That fucker better be dead!!!” Kiba snarled, a loud growl erupting from Akamaru.
Iruka held up his hand and slowly let out a breath. “We don’t know” He said finally looking to them all. “We don’t know if he’s dead or alive. The day we made our move to free you…and Naruto completely lost control we had no way to confirm his death.” His words were soft and a sick silence spread around the room.
“But you told us…” Ino started looking to Sakura, fear evident on her face. “If he’s still alive…” Her breath shook and her fingers curled tight against her chest.
“We would NEVER let him have you again” Iruka hurriedly said holding up his hands before looking towards Kakashi and sighing. “Listen to me, as far as we know he has disappeared, maybe he has continued his work but you’ve been safe. We’ve made sure of it” He said gently.
“Made sure of it?! What about Sasuke Uchiha?! He was sent after us from that Akatsuki group. What about them?! They want Naruto, to use him! You didn’t keep us safe from Sasuke finding us and thankfully the bastard didn’t want to kill Naruto in the end!” Kiba roared angrily throwing his hands up. “Now we have that Itachi bastard and that lunatic shark man after us now!”
“Kiba!” Sakura barked before sighing, she glanced towards Shikamaru and Neji. Neither of them had looked away from their mentors.
“We want the entire story.” Neji’s voice was soft as he watched Iruka. He could see the warring expressions on his face. They didn’t want to tell them. Shikamaru crossed his arms over his chest, this may not be his story but he knew it had to be similar and every bit of information he had he could store away. They needed to know.
“You weren’t the only ones to come to that facility” Kakashi broke the silence finally. Everything about his demeanor spoke of a past he would rather forget. “This was before Iruka was brought in, I was there with a…” He licked his lips a moment, “A select group of individuals” He breathed out. His book had lowered. Slowly he looked around at them all.
“Do you ever wonder why you were selected out of every child that could have been? There was a reason” His lips thinned a little, he slowly took a breath and sat up a little straighter.
“You all had parents that had….natural….anomalies.In fact there is an entire underbelly of individuals with uniqueness. Orochimaru enjoyed studying them” He looked around. “This group ...they all were part of Orochimaru’s program. Your parents wanted to keep you safe, Keep you from his clutches. They allowed Orochimaru to study them. The ultimate goal was to enhance those abilities, or see if any of them could be replicated in others”
“Wh…what…” Ino whispered sucking in a breath.
“What the hell are you talking about? None of us had parents” This came from Sakura her hand reaching for a chair and almost missing it when she sat down. “That’s...not possible…why...” Ino grabbed the back of the chair just to stay upright.
“He’s lying” Neji hissed but Kakashi shook his head. “No. Im not.” He frowned, “They died trying to protect you. The experiments had failed. I was told that they had all died natural causes due to the anomalies” Kakashi sighed slowly. “Of course that had been a lie. Orochimaru is a genius as well as a madman. I found out later they had tried to kill him. So of course Orochimaru needed a more pliable set of test subjects. He moved onto younger the candidates” Kakashi looked up, “All of you” He said simply. Iruka shook his head. This wasn’t helping their cause at all but regardless Kakashi pushed on.
“I was the one sent to collect you all” His voice grew darker, “Ordered. After all” He lifted his hand to his eye which was now covered. “I was one of his successes and at the time I thought that’s all that mattered” He had been a damned fool, Orochimaru didn’t give you anything even when there was blood sweat and tears involved.
Neji stood up sharply, grimaced and held his ribs almost buckling back onto the chair but he gripped it. “YOU brought us into this.” He snarled, “You…watched them...you let them…”
“Sit down before you hurt yourself more” Iruka said quickly and glanced towards Kakashi, the man’s face was grim and so unlike his usual expressions. “It was either I brought you in, or you were going to be killed anyway.” Kakashi said after a moment and shook his head. “There was one though. A woman named Kushina, she was Naruto’s mother.” His jaw clenched a little, “His father died in the attempt to kill Orochimaru”
“What about her?” Shikamaru asked despite himself, “Why wasn’t she involved in the attack that killed everyone else?” His fingers were digging into his upper arms as he kept his voice and temper even. It was a pain in the ass and the more he was hearing the more he hated how he had run.Had his parents been there too?? Killed before he was taken? He couldnt remember them at all.
“She was special. She was able to endure more than anyone else could. That lunatic was utterly fascinated with her.” Slowly Kakashi released a breath, “It wasn’t just her unnaturally fast healing, you know how Naruto loses control? It’s like something else has taken over?” He asked quietly even as Neji slowly sat down. Sakura nodded slightly looking around to the others seeing them all do the same.
“She was the original” Kakashi’s voice was quiet and he sighed his shoulders slumping a little.
“Original…what?” Neji pressed carefully as if he was unsure of wanting the answer. When Kakashi looked up he seemed like an older man. As if the years had caught up with him. “She was the original vessel of…it. And Orochimaru wanted it.”
“What is it?” Kiba broke in shifting on the seat he had taken on the floor. He looked more child then man sitting with his knees pulled up towards his chest. Kakashi rubbed his face and shook his head.
“I suppose you could call it a demon. Whatever it really is, he wanted to have it, he wanted to study it and he wanted to possess its power.”
“But he couldn’t could he?” Neji asked and slowly Kakashi nodded, “I was used in the beginning to break into the woman’s mind…but facing that thing..and her.” A visible shudder coursed through him. “Let’s just say I was unsuccessful. By this time Orochimaru had Itachi and the prodigy of a boy was used mercilessly to learn what was inside of her. And how to extract it.” He swallowed looking down for a moment. “He knew he needed a container for it, for some reason he couldn’t become the container like he wanted. The extraction had cost Kushina her life”
“What…about Sasuke?” Ino’s voice was very small, her eyes were filled with tears and anger. She was glaring but it was like she couldn’t get breath into her own lungs to yell or shout.
“Itachi demanded that he would help contain the beast as long as his brother was left out of Orochimaru’s hands” Kakashi said quietly. “He did for a small while but Orochimaru promises nothing to anyone.” This time Iruka had spoken quietly, his face growing even more grave.
“I was studying children behavior at the medical institute in New York. I was offered an esteemed position to help with a particular case” Iruka sighed, “I happily took the offer and brought Sasuke with me to Orochimaru’s facilities. I didn’t even know it was a trap until I was within the bastards clutches. I was of course brought on to…” Iruka’s lips curled a moment in a sick smile, “ ’keep the moral of the children high’ as Orochimaru had put it”
“So we were all just trapped in this clusterfuck now, including Sasuke and Naruto. What happened to them? Why don’t any of us remember Sasuke being there??” Kiba demanded, He was rocking a little, a small tremble course to his hands before they tightened their grips. The streaked marks on his face looked stark against his pale features. The massive dog keened loudly from the door.
“Orochimaru wanted to perfect his experiments on Sasuke, naturally. He did it. Sasuke took to his abilities like a bird to air. Naruto and Sasuke got very close as well. it seemed Orochimaru wanted them to have a bond. Wanted them to be as connected as possible.” Kakashi picked up the story, “So Naruto became that vessel for that monster, and soon after Sasuke had Naruto in the palm of his hand and Orochimaru manipulated that relationship to his own goals" Kakashi's jaw clenched a little and he shook his head.
"What we didn’t know was how far Itachi would go to remove his brother from Orochimaru’s hands…and how far he would twist Sasuke’s mind to make sure whatever bonds he had made they would be severed forever.”
Slowly Kakashi looked over to Neji. The young man took a breath before his exhale rushed past his lips. He reached down and touched his stomach. “You remember don’t you” It was a statement, not a question. “I know for certain Itachi had to work particularly hard on your memories, but they come back as nightmares and in your knee jerk reaction to despise Sasuke”
Neji glanced around and his jaw clenched tightly. He licked his dry lips as he shifted on the seat. A slight curl of fear moved through him at the words. His dreams. His fingers curled more into the cloth by his stomach as if he was pained by a wound specifically there.
“He killed me…He killed all of us.”
~*~
Naruto panted hard and grabbed Sasuke’s arm. “DON’T.” He hissed. “Please...dont. Don’t.” Naruto begged desperately even as the thrumming chuckle rolled down the dripping hallway but Sasuke shrugged him off. “He knows me” He said taking two steps forward before Naruto jumped in front of him. “Fucking stop! He’s just playing you! He’s like that! A manipulative scummy piece of a bastard!” Naruto snarled his hands on Sasuke’s shoulders to keep him from going forward. Sasuke scowled and suddenly reached up grabbing the front of Naruto’s shirt and yanked him to the side. He stepped past him, his feet padding the wet draining floor. He went still for a moment and looked back over his shoulder. It was eerily still and Naruto was nowhere in sight.
A frown marred his face but he turned towards the direction he was going and moved forward. The end of the tunnel was getting brighter and wider. As he passed through the tunnels they seemed to dissipate behind him. Perhaps this was set up by Orochimaru so one could easily navigate to…well...whatever this was. Or maybe Naruto did it. He glanced back over his shoulder once more. Had he truly given up on stopping him?
‘Uchhihaa..’ the voice thrummed this time it was a pulse of heat and shivering of knowing that flitted through him. He took one step out into the lighted area, his breath sharpened at the sight before him. Naruto was there with his arms crossed over his chest in front of a massive….cage. The bars were thicker then then most trees he’s seen! It took up the entirety of the cavern they were in. But. It was the thing inside though that really had his attention. Glowing eyes stared down on him from behind those bars, the lips of the muzzle were stretched in a snarling grin.
“Kyuubi” Sasuke said the word before he could stop himself and the snarling laugh erupted from the beast before his head lowered to be at eye level with him. Naruto hadn’t moved. He was glaring across at Sasuke his jaw tight and anger radiating from him.
‘how long since I had a visit from him my imcompetent vessel..…12…of your human years..’ the beast crooned darkly its tongue flicking out past the bars, his fox like muzzle pressing against them. He bared his teeth even more.
“Shut up” Naruto snarled his eyes darting back before he slammed a fist on one of the bars. “He shouldn’t be here!” He added even more hotly. Sasuke stepped forward his hand resting on the hilt of the blade at his hip.
“Why shouldn’t I be?” He asked never pulling his eyes from the thing.
“It’s MY body! My MIND! You dont belong here!!!” Naruto roared his hands throwing up in the air in his anger.
‘So temperrmental’ Kyuubi drawled his head cocking to the side and he suddenly slammed against the bars with a roar. ‘THINKING HE ACTUALLY OWNS ANYTHING! If it wasn’t for that DISGUSTING SNAKE I would have been free! I would been able to ravage and roam wherever I WANTED!’ Sasuke had pulled his blade slightly out but Naruto hadn’t even twitched on the spot.
He slid his eyes over the creature, it was massive, beyond anything he could have ever thought of. Its pointed ears were pricked towards them, its sleek fiery fur ranged all the colors of rage and anger until they got to the tails. 9 of them. “You really exist. All those damned books.” He shook his head and stepped closer. He looked up and saw the lock on the gate and something over it. Like a seal?
‘Yes. I exist. I have existed for eons. Much longer than your pathetic kind’ Sneered the creature his head lowering. Sasuke stepped forward. “And yet a 26 year old has you trapped within his body. I’m not sure I would call that pathetic” Sasuke said thoughtfully his fingers traced up the bars.
‘Arrogant Uchihaa! You are not the first I have had to deal with or the last.’ The muzzle was now completely at eye level with him practically pushing through the bars. “Not the first or the last” Sasuke repeated and his eyes narrowed little before his hand flew through the bars and grabbed a handful of the fur right by the nose. “Who else has been here? And how do I not know you?” He demanded but he was suddenly yanked back just as the jaws twisted for his arm.
“Don’t let him have you!” Naruto just about screamed in his ear but Sasuke ripped out of his grip glaring at him but it was the laughter from the creature that had his attention.
‘Oh yes. You are not the first. The first was…Kakashi’ He drawled, ‘but he couldn’t handle it...he came to me only when I was in another...Kushina..ahhh…Kushina she always fought having anyone in her mind Now she was a fighter’ there was an odd tone of pride in the voice but the head turned a little. ‘But it was your brother that I saw the most in the beginning…and how I hate him. And how Naruto does. Don’t you my little vessel’ the head had turned towards the blond before another sinister growling laugh erupted. ‘Oh I forgot. Or I should say you did. He made that happen. He made you forget what he’s done but I never have. Then there was you. Oh you came many many times after Itachi stopped and every time my vessel let you in. He didn’t fight you...at first. Not like he did with the others.’ The gleaming eyes practically danced. ’Even that was scrubbed from your minds. Shall I share the truth of those days? Shall I make you both remember?” A growling pause as the beast pressed against the bars absolutely delighted about this. His bared teeth showed in an animalistic grin. ‘Shall I tell you what kind of monster you really are Saasuke Uchhihaa’
~*~
Sirens started to fade from the destroyed bridge, cleaning crews now working and the highway was blocked nearly 6 miles back. Underneath, where rubble was piled up the ground rippled near one of the many arching braces. A dark hand thrust out finding the ‘ground’ before pushing up, a pale one followed before the split faced man pushed up from the shimmering ground.
“Suuuch a messs. Suuuch a messs.” A voice purred lightly as the creature stepped fully out of the ground with a practiced ease. The skin was mottled, one half completely pale and smirking, the other dark and scowling.
“Yes. Yes it is” The other replied heavily, the head tilted up to listen to the sirens and yelling. The damage was immense to the bridge. There were even cracks in the concrete all the way up this archway. No. Claw marks.
“The beast don’t you think?? I think so. Itaaachi’s been playing cat and mouse and thinks we don’t know. But we do. He thinks his little plan is a secret but its nooot”
“Shut up” The darker voice insisted and took a step forward. Yes there was a trail to follow. The beast wouldn’t get away. Nor would Itachi get away with letting him go. The yellow eyes gleamed and a crooked smirk curled briefly across his face.
