Chapter 2
Kyuubi
~*~
“The fox spirit is an especially prolific shapeshifter, known variously as the húli jīng (fox spirit) in China, the kitsune (fox) in Japan, and the kumiho (nine-tailed fox) in Korea. Although the specifics of the tales vary, these fox spirits can usually shapeshift, often taking the form of beautiful young women who attempt to seduce men, whether for mere mischief or to consume their bodies or spirits…”(1)
Sasuke closed the book and took off the glasses frowning as he looked around the library. He hadn’t dared do anything on his own laptop after what had happened to Shikamaru. It had been a nearly a week and the other hadn’t reached out to him. He had a feeling the man had fled but he wasn’t surprised. He had been doing what he could research wise, watching wise, but nothing was out of the ordinary with the man. His routine barely changed. He ran in the mornings at 6 am, drove to the school taught until 3, had delivery just about for every damn meal, would have some guys come over once and a while for a beer or BBQ, take a night run, then go to bed. It was very consistent.
Too consistent. Sasuke looked at the book Japanese lore and stood up taking the book back to the spot he had pulled it from. His breath shortened as the hair on the back of his neck stood up, like hackles raising. He was being watched. He slid the book in the spot and swept his eyes around as if he was searching for another, someone moved at the corner of his eye but as he looked they had moved on. He pulled another book randomly from the shelf turning before running smack dab into someone knocking him back a step, “Why don’t you watch…” he started before seeing who it was
“Oh shit sorry!!!” Naruto waved his hands, “You ok man?” he asked grinning brightly. Sasuke stared before collected himself in mere seconds. “Fine.” He said with a curt nod holding the book at his side moving past his target. He had been watching him for a little bit and the library wasn’t exactly his ‘spot’ at least from what he had seen so far.
“Hey wait!” Naruto moved over and grabbed his arm, “Didn’t you just move in a few places down on Suna St?” he asked smiling regardless. Sasuke tensed a little on the inside but pushed it away, he feigned a smirk, “Yeah Im here for a building job in the city, just needed a place to be that was going to be cheaper than some of the apartments or hotels.” He lied effectively. The smile seemed to broaden on the face. Now that he was up close and personal with his Target he realized those were scars on his face.
“Oh yeah? That’s sweet, My names Naruto!” The bubbled voice broke the small thought even as the other held out his hand to him. Sasuke didn’t dare frown. “Obito” He shook the hand using the code name he had developed just for this job. The hand was rough and the handshake was firm, but not as if he was trying to squeeze the life out of his own. He could feel callouses, obviously he worked with them. He pulled from the grip. “It’s a pleasure to meet you. Im sure Ill be seeing you around” He drawled lightly and watched the blond bob his head.
“Check you later alligator. Interesting topic by the way, Japanese lore, that shits pretty cool!” Naruto started away, giving him a two fingered salute. Sasuke could see the books tucked under his arm and the smirk fell into a frown. Had it been a coincidence? He doubted it. Had he been tipped off to Shikamarus digging? Or had he been sloppy with his surveillance? His mind went through every move he had made since coming here and couldn’t find a single step made incorrectly. He hadn’t tried yet to get into the house, holding off had been the right move to make. He watched the blond grin and talk with just about anyone he passed and everyone had a smile for him. Was he just the village idiot or was he that good at alluring everyone into a false sense of security about himself? The blond finished at the counter with his books before heading out but that sensation he was still be watched himself didn’t leave him. Sasuke took the book back to the table where he had been sitting. He knew it wasn’t his imagination.
*~*
“He’s a damned idiot” Sasuke said shaking his head. He had tracked Narutos morning run, every few days he was gone longer than normal and he found out why. The guy practically ran to the middle of the woods of the nearby park at the crack of dawn, began karate chopping innocent trees and branches, work it all out then continue on his merry run after about an hour! It wasn’t even skillful karate either it was like…..self-taught from a youtube channel karate! Of course he was wondering now if he could just take the idiots head now and get the hell out of town but there was this constant….niggling at the back of his mind. Sometimes the hair would rise at the back of his neck. He was being watched, he was sure of it.
Sasuke kept to a normal routine, making sure his cover for city construction work was convincing. At night he would review all the video footage. There were two that were constantly over at the others house. One was a toothy, tanned, broad faced brunette with a massive white dog, he had some odd red tattoos on his face. Who tattooed their face? Kiba and Akamaru. Naruto always jumped onto the dog to play with as soon as they were over. He was a moron. The other was a slender man, his hair bound back away from his pale aristocratic features. He rarely smiled but offered Naruto a smirk whenever the door opened to let him in. Sometimes they were both there, sometimes just one or the other. Even once and awhile they had stayed the night.
The Uchiha frowned a moment replaying the video of the day’s events. He was planning on exploring the others house tomorrow. It would be empty for the longest time. He watched Neji leaving the house Naruto on his tail, ready for his early morning run. The blond leaned over whispering something in Neji’s ear…something that caused a smirk on the man’s face before he pulled away and moved towards his car. Sasukes lips thinned a moment. Lovers? His eyebrow twitched a moment before the small noise alerted him of someone coming up the driveway. He closed the computer. It was just after 5...out of reflex he grabbed the holstered gun and put it on, tucked away at his back as he moved towards the door. He heard the loud knock.
Careful as a cat he peered from the thin slit from the window to see who was there. His eyes widened a fraction at the blond standing impatiently at the front door. Sasuke swept his eyes around the bare living room and moved towards the door opening it just as Naruto went to pound on it more. He didn’t open the door much. “Yes?” he said simply, trying to look curious and polite but not inviting. He took in the others tight running clothes. It was obvious he took pride in what he looked like. He wasn’t lean like a long-distance runner would be but nor was he overly jacked. A black eyebrow twitched a moment as he pulled his eyes away from the others physique.
Naruto dropped his raised hand and grinned sheepishly at him, “Sorry to bug you, I saw your car in the driveway Im having some guys over for some food, figured I would invite you over you know…be neighborly and shit...everyone else around here has sticks up their butts it seems” He laughed a little. Sasuke couldn’t help but feel a bit incredulous at the invitation from his Target. He almost let a frown mar his face. On one hand, it would give him a chance to get a closer look at the others living quarters before he putting up his cameras inside. On the other it was risking opening himself up to being found out. He finally let a smirk grace his lips,
“Sure, that would be nice considering the past few days...works been rough” He drawled lightly. The beaming grin that lit the blonds face was surprising. He’s never seen anyone so damned happy. It was annoying. How could someone that was on a hit list be this happy??
“Great! Don’t worry about bringing anything, Ill have beers and shit, you can swing by anytime after 6:30?” He offered and Sasuke nodded, “Sounds good. Ill be there” he inclined his head watching as the blond stepped back still grinning like a moron. “Sweet!” he gave a two fingered salute before heading out for his nightly jog. Sasukes smirk fell into a frown as his eyes watched the spandex clothed figure head around the corner and subconsciously licked his lips before he pulled back and shut the door quickly. It had to be a set up. He still had time to disappear but that would mean failure, and it would mean he was still forced to do the deeds he was sick of doing. He found no joy in the final acts. The hunt was well enough, thrilling even but the final acts he had always found distasteful. He tch’d under his breath, he would go in as prepared as he could, if it was a trap then at least he knew about it. The buzzing of the phone on the table broke him from his thoughts, he moved and picked it up.
“I thought you weren’t planning on reaching out to me” He said in ways of greeting and heard the low sigh. “I wasn’t but I couldn’t let this damn thing go. It’s so damn troublesome” Shikamaru responded in turn. It was apparent he didn’t want to make this call but at this point he didn’t have a choice.
“I got my system up and running, right now Im at a safe house…I went back and did the same search again, this time I was ready.” Shikamaru continued after a moment and this time he smirk leaning back in his seat. “You might want to sit down for this.”
