Manami's P.O.V
"The master is really busy. He doesn't have time to play with you, Manami-chan."
I gritted my teeth. What does he mean by "play"?! I just want to spend some time with Orochimaru-sama! A couple of weeks passed since the day we moved in here, and I saw my master just once or twice, and even then, just for a very short while. He said he has work to do... I missed him so much during these years he was away. I wanted to be with him... There was nothing else I wished more than to be in his arms. Yet, even during late night, I could not see him...
I cursed at Kabuto and left him alone in the hallway. He was annoying. He did not understand me at all.
Orochimaru-sama...
I frowned to myself. There was nothing I could do. I was stuck here, all alone...
I returned to my room and sat on my bed, staring into the wall in front of me. If I could burn things with my eyes, the walls of my room would be covered in holes. I became sick of this room. There was nothing to do. Even Kabuto was busy all the time, he could not train me anymore.
I let out a deep sigh, wrapping my arms around myself. Orochimaru-sama... If only I could be with him now... I could not stop thinking about the time in the bathroom, when it was just me and him. These memories frightened me slightly, yet at the same time they sent millions of shivers down my body. It was so exciting to even think about it. We were so close to each other... He toucher me like never before... I never knew my body could react like this. Too bad, it had to be interrupted. Somehow, I hoped, that... If I see my master again... We could continue it...
Forget about it, Manami. You can't see him now.
I stared at the yellow candle on the wall, it kind of looked like it was fake. The flame was not moving at all. It was frozen.
There was another thing which was disturbing me. It was that damned Uchiha. I could not forget that time I accidentally went to him room. Whenever I remember it, I feel furious. He's such a jerk! What's wrong with him?! Why does he treat me like that?
I could not help but grit my teeth again. I felt so humiliated, so weak... Even after two weeks, it feels like it happened just yesterday. Luckily, I did not have to see him during this time. I don't want to see him ever again. Just a single thought of him made my head ache.
I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes. Sometimes I really felt like a burden here, completely useless. Everyone was busy with their things, and I had nothing else, just Orochimaru-sama. However, he cannot spend all day with me. I wish... I really wish I was stronger, so I could be more of a help for him.
Maybe I should start training more? Even if Kabuto can't train me, I could do this alone.
I smiled to myself as this thought entered my mind. Not like there is anything else to do, I could as well work to get stronger. This way, Orochimaru-sama would appreciate me more. Maybe he would even take me to some missions - that way, I would stop being useless. If I train hard enough, maybe I could beat Sasuke too... That's right, I felt more pumped up than ever!
My eyes flew open and I jumped from the bed, quickly put on my ninja gear and did my hair. I grabbed my ninja weapons - not like I had many, just some shuriken and kunai - and left my room. At such time, the training ground must be empty.
Just as I expected, there was nobody else there during such time. It was almost midnight, after all. The training ground was located even more underground than my room - so, although it was very spacious, it felt really gloomy. There were about twelve oil lamps illuminating the gray stone walls and ceiling - it looked like many small shadows were dancing on them. Let me say, it did not look like the cosiest place in the world. Actually, it looked a bit frightening.
It was so silent. I could not hear anything at all, only the silence itself. I stood there for a while, just listening to it. After taking a deep breath, I decided to start training. There was no time to waste.
Sasuke's P.O.V
I expected the training ground to be empty at such time. Not like anyone else goes there often, besides me. It was Orochimaru's private area, so only his closest people could use that place. It seemed like the whole hideout was just for Orochimaru, Kabuto, Manami and me, but I knew of the horrible things going on in the underground. Orochimaru spent a lot of time there, doing his sick experiments. But all of this will end soon.
While I was opening the door to the training ground, I heard some noise. There was this familiar chakra as well... Manami was here.
I stopped at the doorway and stared at her. She did not seem to notice me, as I was facing her back. My eyes were fixed on her lean, but curvy shape, covered in black ninja clothes. Manami was fixing her pony tail, which looked a bit messy, strands of hair getting loose on the sides of her head. She was panting heavily and staring somewhere.
I could not see what exactly she was looking at, but there were a few kunais and shurikens lying on the ground in front of her. She was training.
After fixing her hair, Manami just stood there, not moving at all. She was covered in silence, only her soft breathing was slightly audible. Her raven black hair was glistening in the faint oil lamp light. Her skin looked so pale. In this dark, gloomy room she almost looked like a ghost.
While I watched her like that, my body froze as well. I could not take my eyes off her. It seemed like all the muscles in my body suddenly refused to move. Something about her made me feel like there was something stuck in my chest, and no matter how much I tried, I could not get it off. I hated this feeling. It made me feel so foolish and weak.
Finally I forced myself to move and gripped my sword, pulling it out soundlessly. I took a few steps forward, my gaze fixed on Manami's back. She still didn't make a single move. Her breathing was calm and steady now.
I put my sword in front of me - the steel blade was shining, black shadows jumping across it. The tip of the sword was getting closer to Manami, till it finally touched her back, slowly rising to the nape of her neck.
I waited for her reaction, but there was nothing. The cold steel was pushing against her flawless skin, just very slightly, not enough to actually pierce it.
"Never let your guard down." I uttered, pointing the sword at her neck.
After a few seconds of silence, Manami's figure disappeared in a puff of smoke. It was just a clone.
This time, I felt cold iron pushing against my skin. Manami was right behind me, holding a kunai against my neck. More than the blade, I felt her warm breathing over my skin.
"I could say the same to you," she whispered.
Her voice was really soft. It was like silk. It sounded strangely soothing in this murky, cold underground.
I could feel her behind me. Her body heat. She was here, right behind me.
Manami's P.O.V
Sasuke managed to sneak behind me so silently, like a tiger, pointing its sharp fangs against my neck. But it was not enough. This time, I was faster.
You can't always win, right?
I gripped my kunai tighter, bringing it closer to his neck. My heart was pounding like crazy, but I tried my best not to show it.
Before I could blink twice, Sasuke suddenly disappeared in front of me, leaving me in awe. I quickly scanned the training ground, but he was nowhere to be seen.
Once again, he made me feel like a fool. I gritted my teeth.
Suddenly I gasped, feeling somebody behind me, gripping my body over my arms tightly, leaving no possibility for me to move them, not even an inch. It was Sasuke. His right arm, holding the sword, was bent up across my neck, pushing the blade tight. I felt the steel against my pulsating skill. It was cold. My body was completely trapped.
I felt like my heart was exploding. A wave of different feelings washed over me. Sasuke's steady breathing was tickling my left ear, sending tingling sensations to my body.
Why am I feeling this way? Why...?
I tried to push against him, but it was useless, as his iron grip on me only tightened. His body was so strong, I couldn't move at all. Drops of cold sweat were forming on my forehead.
I glanced at the blade, glistening under the light. My single reckless move would make it pierce my neck completely. I imagined blood gushing out of skin, spilling over the blade, Sasuke's hand and my clothes. Everything would be tainted in my crimson blood.
My mind was a complete mess at that moment. Feeling him so close to me...
Uchiha... Just why? Why can't I hate you?
