Chapter 3
Swimming outside of the kingdom, a blonde haired woman poked her head out of the water slightly near the ship. She had caught sight of the rosette haired woman. She's watched her from afar. The mermaid knew she couldn't have the human female, but she couldn't ignore her feelings. The blonde in wardly sighed, attracted to the idea of forbidden love. Sakura frowned, glancing around from where she stood on the ship. She could've sworn she felt someone watching her. Shrugging, she decided to brush it off. Ino expected as much from her. Inwardly sighing, she dipped back down into the water. She hoped one day she and Sakura would be together. She knew it was a lot to hope for, but she wouldn't give up. Deciding to swim back to the kingdom, she wondered what was going on back there. She knew the rulers and their children were able to maintain the peace. The king and queen forbade any of their people to see a human. Falling in love with one meant you were exiled. Shuddering, she remembered what happened to a certain redheaded woman. She hoped she wouldn't face a similar fate. Luck has been on her side so far. She hasn't been caught yet. Speaking of the rulers, the castle where the royals dwelled seemed to be a bustle of activity today. Ino decided to head to her post. She's oen of the guards after all.
"You were up there, weren't you?" ased the voice of a redheaded male.
"Sh, not so loud," Ino hissed, glancing around frantically, worried someone might eavesdrop.
"Heh, make me," challenged the redhead. "The highness and majesty wouldn't be pleased to know one of their loyal guards is fantasizing about
"Fine, " sighed Ino. "What the hell do I need to do to keep you silent on this? I really don't want this type of thing noticeable to our rulers. You know what happened last tiem they caught someone who wanted to be with a human."
"Bring me that brunette from the ship and then perhaps I'll keep your secret," replied Gaara dryly.
"The one called Neji?" she asked, raising a brow due to how the redhead didn't seem to like ayone.
"Yes, don't make me repeat myself,' snapped Gaara. "Do it or I'll tell the queen and king. Do you understand?"
"Yeah, yeah I heard you," she rolled her eyes at him. "I'll do it after my shift, ok?"
"Agreed," complied Gaara, seeming to be satisfied for now.
Ino shrugged, headin to her post. Guarding the doors to the throne room wasn't difficult. Feeling relieved about the deal she made with Gaara, she stood in front. She couldn't help hearing something going on in the particular room she's guarding. Her curiosity was too much. She decided to eavesdrop on the conversation. The king and queen were having a discussion with one of their sons. She didn't find it odd their rulers were men in a same sex relationship.
"Sasuke," said the queen or otherwise known as Nagato. "You know you're at the age where you need to find your mate."
"Hn," grunted the raven haired merman, his hair obsidian black with onyx eyes, his scales a mix between black and red while his tail was blood red except for the tips which are black. "I know this, mother. You don't need to remind me."
"Yes, he does," growled the king, Madara, glaring lightly at the young man. "You're eighteen, Sasuke. There have been a few suitors who have a fancy for you."
"I don't like women," stated Sasuke bluntly, knowing the two would accept him no matter his preference. "I hate seeing the women trying to seduce me. It makes me sick."
"I know," Nagato said, trying to maintain his gentle tone, hoping they weren't being overheard by any of the guards or anyone else. "There's been a few men who want to gain a chance to meet with you."
"Hn, we'll see," replied the ravenette simply, sounding bored about the whole conversation. "is that all you wanted to talk to me about? I have better things to do than discussing this matter."
Madara frowned, "Drop it for now. If we push him to ofar…..well then we won't be able to ensure he can handle having a mate."
Sasuke shot his father a light glare, "I can handle it."
Nagato shrugged, "True. Well, you can be dismissed for now. We'll need to speak with your older brother about this as well."
"Tch, fine," grumbled Sasuke, swimming out to find his brother who he informed their parents wanted to talk to them about stuff.
"Well, alright then," mused Itachi, poking Sasuke in the middle of his forehead affectionately. "Don't let it get to you, little brother. You'll find the right one for you."
"Hn," grunted Sasuek before swimming off to avoid others in his pursuit to check out what lies beyond the kingdom.
"You wanted to speak with me?" asked Itachi as he swam into the throne room, his obsidian black hair tied into a low ponytail at the nape of his neck, his onyx orbs scanning the area.
"Yes," answered his father. "it's about finding your mate. You are the heir to this throne, son."
"Indeed," agreed the queen. "We need to ensure you'll be with the right person."
"There has been someone who's struck my fancy," piped up the raven haired male.
"Oh?" Madara inquired, raising a brow as he waited for him to elaborate.
"Deidara," was is answer, tensing slightly as he didn't know how they would react from the news.
"I see," mused Madara.
"He'll be a handful," murmured Nagato. "You'll be fine with him. The personality clash will be interesting."
"Hn, he won't bore me,"
"Good, have you begun the process?" Madara asked, wrapping an arm around his mate, knowing after their discussion with their older son they'd have other things to deal with as well.
Itachi nodded, "Yes, I have. You don't need to worry about me. I know what I'm doing unlike my younger brother when it applies to various matters."
Madara chuckled, "He's getting there. Don't underestimate him. You'll be surprised what he's capable of."
"Tch, doesn't matter," shrugged the older ravnette. "Am I dismissed?"
"Yes," Nagato assured, shaking his head as he chuckled lightly. "Well, this seems like an interesting development for our children. Let's see if it ends well for them."

A blonde haired male with tanned skin swam through the passages of the kingdom. His hair is tied in a high ponytail. Part of his fringe covers his right eye. His eyes are azure blue. He has dark gold scales. His tail is mostly the same color as his scales except for the tip of each fin which is a darker shade of blue. He wears a black cloak around his shoulders with red clouds on it. His hands were busy with some wet clay. He has a strange talent that runs through his family. He has mouths on his hands. There's even one on his chest. People normally would jeer at him, throw rocks or sharp sheels at him, and other acts he'd prefer not to mention. Frowning, he did recall one of the princes didn't look at him as if he were a freak. There's no telling if he could trust an Uchiha. Speaking of him, Deidara glanced over to see the dark haired man swim up beside him. Raising a brow, the blonde wondered what business he had with him today.
"What do you want, un?" asked Deidara in a slightly annoyed tone.
"You know why," replied Itachi in his velvet smooth voice, remaining calm against the blonde's irritation. "It's growing near to mating season. You haven't acquired one yet, correct?"
"It's none of your concern," Deidara hissed in response. "I take care of it if you must know. Now, leave me alone, Uchiha. I don't have time for you."
Sighing, Itachi decided there were two options presented before him. If he allowed Deidara to leave there would be no telling when the next time he'd be able to snag him. On the other hand, he could kiss him to see where things go. The blonde grew apprehensive at seeing how the Uchiha was looking at him. Deidara could've sworn he looked hungry as if he were a piece of meat which he didn't like. Seeing the opporuntiy, Deidara tried to flee. He knew it was futile against such a foe. He'd at least try even if it landed him in an unpleasant situation. Itachi smirked, amused at the chase he'd have to conduct against his quarry.
"Deidara, wait," called out Itachi.
Glancing over his shoulder, he stopped where he stood, a lone azure eye stared back into the onyx now turned crimson eyes of Itachi, "What the hell do you want? I said, leave me alone! Can't you get that through your head, un?"
"You'll come with me," said Itachi, his calm demeanor didn't falter, somewhat pleased he didn't have to track down Deidara far to ensnare him in his trap. "I'll make sure of it. Now, it would be the best decision you've made in your life if you decide to become my mate. Then again, I'm not giving you much of a choice here. Let's return home, shall we?"
A/N: Dun, dun, dun! Hehes, I think that was a lovely cliff hanger of doom at the end of this chappie. Next time, we'll return to Naruto. *shifty eyes* I do have some plans for this. I'm really sorry thee were no updates this week. Life's a bit hectic at the moment. I have my third session with the counselor on Wednesday. It's going well so far. I think it really helps to see one. At least with the breathing exercises and meditation have helped dealing with panic attacks. Although on another note I've come to the point in my life where I can't allow anyone outside of my family to grow close to me. It's a reason why I built up walls in the first place. So many ex's have hurt me verbally/emotionally. Ya'll don't need to care or worry about me. I just thought it was a good idea to let ya'll know what's going on in my life right now. I'll have the next chappie out soonish. Be patient with me, oks? Please remember to review lovelies!
