Chapter 18
Shukaku

“Thank you very much for the invite. I’m quite flattered” Kabuto was sitting on an elegant black chair, a cup of brandy in one hand. Across from him, Madara was equally ensconced. “Well after you made such a generous contribution for Kyuubi I had to invite you for a more private conversation.” He sipped at the brandy before setting it down with a small clink on the table.
“I know you have been under my employ since the unfortunate demise of your master but I had no idea you had accumulated such funds “ Madara drawled lightly black eyes taking in the other man across from him. He saw the man shift but knew it was only pretense. Something about him always seemed…off. One reason he wished to keep him close. He’d rather see the knife coming.
Kabuto tilted is head and smiled his glasses glinting, “Well what can I say, I’m a surprising fellow” He replied, “But I am curious, your time line to retrieve Kyuubi has been rather delayed.” Kabuto sipped at the brandy but didn’t miss the way those eyes narrowed on him. “I’m only saying, Its concerning he has alluded you for so long, I’ve heard you sent Sasuke back to them in hopes Naruto would kill him” The glass clinked sharply on the table again which had Kabuto glancing over.
“Who told you that?” The man asked darkly and Kabuto shrugged giving a charming smile. “Your people talk. I can’t help but overhear. I could have told you that was the wrong way of doing things, if you wanted to get rid of Sasuke why not just do it yourself...or I would have happily done it for you…sending him back to an old lover certainly seemed like a bad idea. It couldn’t have been yours…?” Kabuto trailed off lightly and hid his smirk at the expression darkened even more. “It seems like perhaps Itachi might not be as loyal as you think. You know, Orochimaru made that mistake as well” Kabuto sighed, “he is very convincing but I don’t think you could trust him, I mean…he escaped our facilities only to have you sweep him up. You can’t imagine how upset my master was with that…all our negotiations about bringing Itachi back into our experiments and Sasuke, well he hadn’t even finished all the experiments he had planned and yet you refused” Madara frowned his eyes narrowed dangerously.
“I felt it was unnecessary after all his abilities were lacking and I had made sure what he did have were locked away. He didn’t need them” The words were clipped and it was obvious it wasn’t a topic he wanted to talk about. “Oh I see” Kabuto said quietly, “That is a shame really, I mean if it was just that reason. Are you sure there weren’t any other reasons? Perhaps you felt it was too much competition...after all you are the original…those boys being of relation to you did help their progress. I thought Sasuke would surpass you even” The smile curled as Madara’s feature’s grew stony and dark.
“I never thought that was true” The words were so sharp Kabuto wondered if he would try to kill him. It would be interesting if he tried at least. “Ah well. It was only the hopes of Orochimaru that put that thought to my mind. As it is, he being so long dead his opinions don’t matter anymore.” Kabuto set down his glass carefully.
A knock at the door broke the tension between them. Kabuto glanced over. “Sir?” A voice called in. Madara stood, “Enter” He snapped he hated interruptions and his intentions on killing Kabuto were getting higher on his priority list. Kabuto watched as a nervous young man slunk in. He swallowed and straightened.
“Im..ah.sorry sir” The eyes darted to Kabuto before back to Madara. The older Uchiha frowned as the young soldier took a shaky breath. “There are...reports of Facility One…being under attack” He stuttered out and licked his lips, “A..and..thatthe Shu..shukak..u…has uhm..es..cap..ed…” He man made a noise as his face was grabbed by the pale palm. The eyes went huge and the scream that started up ended with a bubble of blood from his eyes, mouth and nose.
Madara dropped him. “This meeting is over” He stepped over the body, his hand flicking the blood from his fingers. Kabuto’s lips had curled up in a wide smile and his eyes slits the glasses glinting in the light. “Of course. It seems you have troubles of your own” He purred and stood. He moved towards the body and stepped around it. His eyes slid towards Madara’s.
“If there is any trouble I would be happy to help” He said lightly, hoping for the man to take the bait. It would make things so much easier.
“Im sure you would. But no. I will make sure its handled” Madara closed the door behind them, his black eyes rimmed with red as he stalked off in the opposite direction a phone already in hand.
Kabuto had paused and watched the broad mans back. He reached up and touched his face. “Well well well.” Not exactly what he thought would happen but it seemed all those experiments have finally figured out what they could do. His grin split his features widely. He couldn’t wait to have them under his thumb again, after all life experience was the best way to test his subject matter.
~*~
“How can he just up and travel almost 3 miles in under 20 minutes?!” Iruka roared. Kakashi held his hands up, “The faster we get moving, the faster we’ll find him. Besides we’re all going after the same thing. If we get there he will have our backup but only if we get moving now” He was trying to be the voice of reason but the fact of the matter was he had no idea how Naruto had done it. If he had used Kyuubi it would have been just pure demonic rage wouldn’t it be? Of course if he could control it more that would be another matter.
“You have the scent?” He barked out and Kiba nodded swiftly. “Akamaru is on it now, he’s already going ahead…” A weak grin spread on his face, “He’ll let out a howl, Ill be able to find him myself anywhere he goes” Kakashi nodded, “lets load then” How had no one noticed him slipping away? It wasnt like he was the most stealthy of individuals! He shot a glance to Neji but the man was fighting his own internal berating session. He sighed and got into the car starting it up.
Neji frowned as he slid into his own seat slamming the door. This was his fault he should have followed him, at least kept him within view instead he was so focused on Shikamaru and the mystery that surrounded the other man. His eyes narrowed a little. Damn it all.
“Oh would you stop it with the glowering” Shikamaru groaned, “You’re going to give yourself a damn ulcer with how much you worry. Blondie can take care of himself. Sure you’ve been hovering over him all this time but getting upset because you weren’t there or you didn’t follow his every step is just damn ridiculous. You’re supposed to be his friend not his damn nanny”
“Why you!!” Neji snarled and turned around but Kakashi shoved him back into his seat hard. “I swear I’m not in the mood for this crap” Kakashi warned them, “But he’s right. You’re not his nanny. I don’t think he went off in a damn rage, we would have seen that. I think he’s using that damn fox demon in a way he hasn’t before, he’s controlling it...or something. They must have struck a bargain.” They pulled back onto the curving road and heading up, their headlights bright compared to the darkness sinking around them.
The scowl was still over Neji’s features but he shook his head, “I was always the one to watch his back…” He said, even with they were little and Sasuke had disappeared from the facility, and he was wiped from their minds that urge to keep Naruto safe was practically imbedded in him. Now that he had all his memories back Neji remembered HE was the one that had put Naruto back together. Even though the blond didn’t know what was missing in his life Naruto had become despondent, angry and downright vicious sometimes. Neji had helped him, HE had helped him through that.
“Then watch his back, and stop acting like a jealous lover” Shikamaru muttered softly. “It’s damn obvious and there’s no time for it, if you want to help him then you need to focus and put everything you have in what you can do…and that’s watching our backs and making sure we don’t run into any damn surprises either.” Neji took a breath and scowled a moment. He was right. Clenching his jaw he released a slow breath, like a flower unfolding his vision bloomed around them and spread to it farthest extent. He would see everything. He would make sure of it.
Kakashi glanced back into the mirror at Shikamaru and saw the momentarily clench of the usual laid back individual. Damn kids. The lot of them. He frowned suddenly when the trees around their vehicles started to shake and a howl rose up.
“What the hell...” Kakashi muttered slamming on his breaks as the SUV ahead of him did as well. “There’s nothing...I don’t see anything…” Neji said quickly, “Kiba what is Akamaru howling about?” Kakashi hissed into the radio and it crackled a moment.
“He’s got Naruto’s scent…Zetsus in the same direction but he smells explosives and the earth is shaking from them…and that roaring... The radio made another noise again as another pitched howl rose. “…there’s something about a bad scent...and a bad monster noise…” Another crackle even as their vehicles rumbled in an ominous way. Explosives?? Bad Scent?? Bad monster noise?
“For the love of…we don’t need any other ‘bad’ things happening, keep moving Iruka. We need to find them. NOW.” Kakashi clicked the radio and didn’t even bother looking towards Neji. “If it had been Naruto I’m sure that dog knows the difference, so a bad scent could mean something nastier. Your eyes need to see everything”
Kaksahi hated to do it but they couldn’t risk not getting every detail they could, No helping it really. He lifted a hand and pushed the covering up and opened his eye. He heard Neji inhale a moment but he didn’t say anything. This wasn’t the time. He might be old but he sure as hell wasn’t dead.
“I see him” Neji said suddenly. “And he’s moving damn fast, he’ll be out my range and he’s heading north deeper into the low foothills. I don’t know if this road is going to take us that direction.” He warned, “We’ll have to pull over and go on foot if it doesn’t.” Kakashi nodded and relayed the information, “Just keep him in your sights. Whatever is out here, I don’t think we need to face.”
~*~
“Now THAT’S what I call a lightshow!” Kankuro panted as they ran, one arm slung under his brothers arms as they staggered away from the flames and explosives that were being set off all at once. “Jesus...sis..think you outdid yourself” Another panting laughing. The redhead stirred a little, the eyes fluttered. A small sound escaped the back of his throat. Temari looked over and made a face. “Just..shut up and keep..ha..running” She snarled out. Her own arm was supporting Gaara on the other side.
Damn it. Sure she had set those timers off perfectly…and it was supposed to be a pretty big boom but this wasn’t exactly in her cards. What else had they been hiding in that facility?! She didn’t even want to think about it. All the Intel she had gotten was Gaara, the one tail monster was being held at Facility One. It had taken them years to get to this point, to get him out. Now they were here and the plan had gone almost too well. Besides the fireworks now happening.
The young man under arm made another groaning sound and she hissed. “Shit he’s coming out of the catatonic state....no doubt the drugs are wearing off…come on we gotta move faster!” She tugged ahead ignoring the burning in her legs and lungs. They couldn’t stop. She could already hear yelling and shouts and was that an ATV?! Her eyes narrowed. An ATV?
“…what….” Gaara’s voice rumbled out and the dark rimmed eyes fluttered a moment. Kankuro swore under his breath and pushed faster. “Sis…” Kankuro panted out but Temari scowled. “Shut up. Im thinking” She hissed. The body between them shifted and another noise escaped their youngest brother’s mouth. “Temariiii” Kankuro managed out again. She ignored him this time. Gaara was coming out of his drugged state, if he fell into one of Narcoleptic fits that monster would take over, but how long he had been in that facility he was going to be exhausted. They needed to get him out of here to safety.
“..where.…Im tired…” Another rumbling noise escaped the throat and the body shifted in their grip again as Gaara started to come too. Temari stumbled a moment but caught herself. The noises of the men were getting louder. She smirked a moment. So was that ATV.
“Shit..shit..if he comes out of the drugs now...and falls asleep…now while there’s explosions going on…” Kankuro groaned. Temari licked her lips, the ground was starting to shiver, her brother abilities waking up alongside with him. She stumbled again as another explosion rattled behind them and Kankuro suddenly tripped and went down hard sending both Gaara and Temari into the ground. “Shit..Sorry!” Kankuro rattled grabbing his brother, the young man’s eyes opened fully, and the drugged haze clearing. The bright green eyes were revealed for a moment before the eyelids sagged a second. The ground shivered again, dust and dirt rising up a few inches from the ground.
“Ah..Gaara..lets keep a nice cool head ok..we’re getting you away..so..” Kankuro started gently, the eyes flickered open.
“Cool..head” The voice rumbled out. Kankuro looked over at Temari and took in a breath. “Yeah..a cool head..stay..awake..I know you’re tired. We know. We need to get somewhere erm…safe…” The older boy’s voice petered off for a second as the earth shivered again. All that rising dust and dirt and rocks seemed to start moving towards Gaara. The head sagged a moment. “..Im..goinng to kill them all…”
The chilling words almost had the painted faced man stumbled back but it was Temari that grabbed him by the shirt. “Don’t run” She hissed angrily before turning her head. “They have an ATV, its coming right for us. We need it. It will get us out of here faster than trying to run with him like this.” He ground shook a little more and she took another breath. “Ill keep him awake. YOU need to get that ATV. Any means necessary.”
“…let me..kill them alllll” Gaara voice rasped out, the eyes fluttering again. Kankuro groaned. “God damn it why do I have to go and do it??” He whispered. “Would you rather keep Gaara awake?” She asked with a sudden sweet smile and Kankuro jumped up already yanking his pack around. “Hell no! I’ll take care of them...just don’t let him fall asleep!” he said quickly.
Temari swallowed and moved over to her brother cradling Gaara’s head in her lap. She had her pack next to her and the metal folded fan down in one hand. “You heard him Gaara…stay awake just a little longer…just a little longer” She whispered, the shadowed eyes fluttered again and the dead anger there just terrified her.
“let me…kill them…” The eyes snapped open wide. “Let.Me.Kill.” His voice dragged from his throat and Temari held him back. Shit. “Kankuro is taking care of them.” She said, hell she could already hear the screams but Gaara was pushing up from her grip. He swayed on the spot and almost fell but steadied himself. The ground released more dust and dirt into the air all of it swirling around them and towards Gaara. There was an odd crunching grinding noise as rocks broke apart and dirt clumped into a gritty dry sand texture. She stared at him as he stood. He never changed. There was this bone chilling feeling about him. After everything that had happened to him, she wasn’t surprised but still. They knew they had to get him out, they knew they had to rescue him but what the hell were they supposed to do with their psycho brother?! How could they control him!?
“FREEZE” Someone roared coming into the moonlight area of the woods. Temari whipped towards the voice but it was Gaara who had turned his head and stepped forward. The green eyes glinted despite the black that sagged around his eyes. His hand raised. The man with the gun lifted it, “I said...I said don’t move!! They’re over here!! I found them..! I said don’t…don’t move!” The gun rattled off three bullets but they all thudded uselessly in a wall of granulated sand. Gaara’s fingers spread and the sand went straight for the man, his screams muffling as he was completely encased.
“Die.” He hissed out his fingers closing at the sound of crunching meat and bones filled the small clearing. The mutilated body dropped onto the ground. Temari breathed outstaring at the bloody mush the man had become. Those gunshots would have been heard though. Where the hell was Kankuro?! The roaring ATV suddenly came spinning into clearing. Gaara whipped his head his hand raising but Kankuro was holding up his palms. “It’s me!” He said quickly. Gaara’s lip curled, “Did you kill them all?” His voice grated out and Kankuro licked his lips. “Uh..yeah…I did…” He started but whatever strength Gaara had seemed to drop from him because his body sagged and he fell boneless to the ground.
“Oh Shit” Temari grabbed him as he fell, the eyes having closed, and then sound that roared from Gaara wasn’t him at all. The ground shook and she felt the sand around her legs. Oh hell. “Kankuro! Give me my bag!” It had come off during the small scuffle and her brother threw it at her. She didn’t want to do this now but they didn’t have a choice. Gaara had expanded all the energy he had. Until they could get to safety and until Gaara could get some rest without that monster waking up they were all in danger. A scream reverberated from him and it shook the entire clearing and then some. She ripped open a small pack and grabbed a needle.
“Temari!!”
She ignored her brother and ignored the grip of the sand around her legs and ankles. She yanked open one needle.
“Im sorry Gaara…” She panted, the sand squeeze and she knew it drew blood. He screeched again and everything in her body screamed at her to flee but she slammed the needle into his neck breaking through the thin layer of sand that had started to form. The seconds seemed to pass by before eyes opened and he breathed out then they sagged closed once more.
She collapsed forward with him and gulped in a desperate breath. “It will…keep that monster at bay” She managed out looking up to Kankuro. Despite everything her older brother got them both up and onto the ATV. There was the smell of blood and death on him and his pack. Well. They were all monsters really. There was no denying that. She held onto the redhead with one arm and the other wrapped around Kankuro’s waist. They left the burning building behind. A flurry of bullets followed their escape path as men started to fill the area. The hollering sounds fading behind them as they fled into the darkness. A single white snake slipped under a tree trunk, its tongue flicking out before it disappeared into the foliage.
