“Well, this is a disappointment.” Orochimaru said with creepy golden eyes blankly staring at her. Natsuki lay before him on the stone floor, her body twitching, her teeth grinding in agony. “She tried to kill the guard.” He said with a smirk, as he turned to Kabuto who watched with little amusement. “Are those restraints finished yet?” The snake man asked and received a swift nod from the crazed medic. Turning, leaving the dying girl on the ground, Orochimaru waved at the two dismissing them. “Then have them put on, before she gets any ridiculous freedom ideas in her head.”
“Mmm, with pleasure Orochimaru-sama.” Kabuto nearly purred as he quickly swooped the girl up, careful not to let her skin touch his own.
Chapter Six
“Ne, ne Papa, when are your guests coming? You said there‘d be someone for me to play with!” Natsuki pouted as she stood with her hand on her tiny hip. Her tiny child body dressed in her best for her fathers visitors. Before she could whine more or her father could answer her she heard a tiny laugh from behind them. Twirling around her eyes lit up and a smile stretched across her face. “Akira-niisama!” She squealed before rushing over and tackling him to the ground.
The older boy laughed as he caught her, keeping her from the possible harmful fall towards the grassy floor. “Hello to you to Suki-chan.” He smiled down at her fondly. Akira watched as his father walked over and greeted Natsuki’s. Finally he sat up, situating the younger girl between his legs. “Father says he’s come to talk about a proposition with your family.” Natsuki only smiled in her childish way, not really knowing or caring about business matters. “Does that mean you can play with me until he is finished?” She stood and quickly took his hand in an attempt to pull him to stand. “Papa said someone was coming to play with me, is that you Akira-niisama?”
Akira nodded as he stood, with little help from Natsuki. “Yes, I suppose I can play with you for a while.” He gently squeezed her hand as the two started off towards the small garden surrounding the backyard.
“Is your Papa talking about something really important with my Papa?” The tiny girl asked with a cute tilt of her head.
“Hmm.” Akira thought gently tapping his chin. “I’d say it is one of the most important things a father can talk about.”
This caused Natsuki’s feet to stop and her interested to be piqued. “Really?” She asked in disbelief, the boy only nodded his answer. “What is it?” She whispered, leaning closer to him as if it was a very delicate secret.
Akira leaned down and his smile grew. “You…” He started, his finger rising to gently tap her nose. “…Don’t have to worry about such things. So don’t worry Suki-chan.”
Pouting childishly, Natsuki let the topic drop before dashing off. “Catch me Akira-niisama~!” She hollered back, giving an excited squeal as the older boy began to chase after her.
An hour later, Natsuki was pouting again as she crossed her little arms over her chest. “That’s not fair you were using the ninja skills that you learned at school.”
Akira playfully ruffled her hair. “I was not. You were just easy to catch. My legs are longer than yours, you know.”
She stuck her tongue out at him, a woman turning the corner just in time to catch her naughty act. “Natsuki! Don’t do such unladylike acts!” The woman chided lightly as she came up beside the girl. “And look what you’ve gone and done. Your dress is filthy. You were playing in the forest again weren’t you?”
The young girl slowly slid behind Akira and peeked out from behind him. “We were playing tag. I thought it would be okay if Akira-niisama was with me. I didn’t mean to get dirty.”
The maid was about to continue scolding her when Akira quickly jumped to her defense. “It’s alright. I’ll explain things to Tanaka-sama. I’m sure he will understand.” The maid seemed to relax slightly, and the boy glanced down at the still hiding Natsuki. “Plus Suki-chan looks cuter when she’s being herself.” The little girl blushed, but still buried her face into the boys side.
“Ah, Akira, this is where you two are.” The boys father rounded the corner, accompanied by Natsuki’s. “We will be spending the night here.” His eyes quickly turned to the girl still huddled behind his son. “Ah, I see that dress faired just as well as the others.” He chuckled at the hopeless sigh that left the girls father.
“I want to sleep with Akira-niisama!” Natsuki proclaimed loudly without a hint of embarrassment. Akira’s cheeks however tinted a light red before he coughed to cover it up.
Her father frowned lightly and shook his head. “Now, Natsuki, you are much too old to be doing such things.” His hands quickly found each other behind his back. “Now go on and take your bath and get ready for bed.” The man saw his daughter ready to throw a tiny tantrum and he quickly squashed it with a stern look. The young girl’s face scrunched up as she turned and darted towards her room, the maid quickly following after her.
Akira watched her scurry off with a small smile on his face. The Tanaka father gave the boy a gentle pat on the shoulder. “I will expect much from you in the future, Akira.” The boy looked up at him with respect and pride in his eyes. “You will treat my daughter well.”
Akira gave a small bow and nodded. “Of course Tanaka-sama. It will be an honor to enter the Tanaka family and to marry Su…I mean Natsuki.” The man seemed to accept this answer, because with another firm pat on the shoulder the two older men continued their walk down the hallway. Leaving Akira to stand alone and take in the information he‘d just been provided.
Natsuki’s father sighed heavily as he turned to his old friend. “I will have to start Akira’s training soon.” The boys father nodded in understanding. “It will take a few years before he will be able to control Natsuki’s gift. Sadly she doesn’t possess the ability to contain it on her own.” With another turn the two entered the Tanaka’s study and took a seat. “Though it should be okay, while Natsuki is within my range I will be able to keep it in check until Akira learns.”
“Does cute little Suki-chan remember now?” The creature hissed, its clawed fingers gently petting the floor by her feet. “How cold.” It said as she tried in vain to pull herself further from him. “To be so distance with your fiancé. How very cold, pretty-pretty Tanaka-chan.”
Natsuki’s body trembled from both fear and sadness. Her head buried into her knees, her arms wrapped around her legs. “I’m sor…sorry.” She managed to whisper out, she couldn’t look at the thing. She wouldn’t allow herself to believe that this was once the kind and caring boy she’d known.
“Sorry?” The voice almost laughed, though anger slowly seeped through its veins. “YOU’RE SORRY?!” It roared, again straining against the chains that held it. “She’s sorry, sorry, sorry…sorry.” It muttered to itself, the chains scratching against the ground as it began to pace back and forth.
A loud noise had Natsuki jolting up in her bed, her tiny hands coming up to wipe the sleep from her eyes. Suddenly a shrill cry sounded through the air, causing the young girl to freeze in fright. Silence followed it only for a moment before yelling and the sounds of metal hitting metal could be heard in the distance. Within seconds of the noise starting her bedroom door flew open. Natsuki went to scream but a hand clamped over her mouth.
“Shh, Suki. It’s me.” Akira whispered from behind her causing her to relax. Tiny tears pricked at her eyes as she tried to glance back at him. “We have to get out of here, someone has attacked.” The boy felt her body tremble slightly in his hold. “Don’t worry, I’ll protect you.” She nodded as he slowly removed his hand from her mouth then gently helping her off the bed he grasped her smaller hand within his.
“Akira-nii…”
Akira shook his head and quickly held his finger to her lips. She nodded, taking the hint to be quiet. He peeked out of the window before quickly opening it and lifting her out of it. Once outside, he took her hand again and began running towards the forest. He had to get her out of there and he had to get her to the safety that her home no longer provided.
Once they reached the forest border, Akira didn’t hesitate to continue to run. He would protect Natsuki no matter what. He heard the tiny hiccup come from behind him and glanced back at Natsuki.
Tears were flowing down the girls face as her lip trembled. His eyes softened as he slowed to a stop and turned to her. “Shhh, it’s alright Suki-chan.” He said quietly, pulling her into a tight hug. He quickly realized that, like him, she had just been pulled from her bed. Her light night gown was doing nothing for the chill of the night and her bare feet were probably sore from running on the harsh forest floor. “Okay…” He mumbled, quickly glancing around them and taking in his surroundings. “Okay, we’re going to be fine.” He kissed the top of her head before prying her tiny arms off of him. Turning he crouched down and motioned for her to climb on his back. “Come on.” He sent her a gentle smile and she quickly clambered her way onto his back. Her arms wrapped themselves around his neck, her face buried between her shoulder blades. “Okay. Here we go.” With a tiny bump to push her further up his back, he took off further into the forest, unaware of the golden eyes following them.
It seemed like hours that he was running. Yet he was sure that the forest was never this dense. He swore he should have hit the main town by now. Natsuki was shivering on his back, both from the cold and the fear of the situation.
“Akira-niisama…” She whispered, her arms tightening around his neck. “Some…someone is watching us.”
Skidding to a halt, Akira looked back at the younger girl. “Are you sure?” He asked, not being able to sense anything or anyone trailing them.
The younger girl nodded her head, refusing to open her eyes and look around them. Just as soon as the two heard the hissing chuckle coming from all around them, Akira gasped in pain. Natsuki quickly opened her eyes and looked at the boy just as he fell to his knees. In haste Natsuki released the boy and scrambled away from him. Akira grunted and gasped as he turned and reached for Natsuki but the girl just continued to back away from him. Natsuki‘s eyes widened at the pained looked on the older boys face, she knew that look. “No…no…” She whispered, tears beginning to flow again and her tiny hands shaking. “Papa said it wouldn’t happen again!”
The boy had a confused look on his face, but it was quickly wiped away when he finally felt the person Natsuki was speaking of. Struggling to his feet, the boy put himself between the girl and the new intruder. Akira’s nails dug into the palm of his own hand as he tried to regain his breath. It was odd, he felt as if his life was being drained, as if his Chakra was being sucked out of his body by something…or someone. “What do… you want?” He asked out in a grunt.
The golden eyes watched in amusement. “Oh aren’t you a strong one.” The man chuckled, as he took another step towards them coming out into the light. “Too bad you weren’t trained better. Then you might have realized you’ve been running in circles thanks to my Genjutsu.”
Akira grimaced as he once again fell to his knees. “What did you...do to me?!” He growled out, still crouched before Natsuki.
“Me?” The man said with a smirk. “I believe you should be asking the little Tanaka heir over there.” Akira didn’t chance glancing back at Natsuki, he couldn’t take his eyes off of this enemy. “You know if you don’t give her to me, you’re probably going to die. Then I’ll take her anyway.”
Akira growled at the man. “I won’t let you touch Natsuki!”
The attackers smirk grew as a long tongue slipped out and licked his lips. “Is that so?” Within a blink of her eye, the man before them disappeared and reappeared beside Akira. A quick blow to the stomach had the young boy hacking and choking on air. “Hmm, I think I will take her anyway.”
Natsuki cried out and rushed towards the fallen boy. Akira tried to tell her to stay back or to run but it was no use. “Don’t hurt Akira-niisama!” She yelled at the evil man, but he only chuckled.
“Now I wouldn’t touch him if I were you, little one.” The man said, as he grabbed the back of her night gown, holding her in place. “Wouldn’t want him to die like the others did, now would you?” He hissed into her ear.
Then with tears flowing down her cheek and her blurry vision staring at the fallen, slowly dying Akira, Natsuki shook her head. “I don’t want Akira-niisama to die!” She said pitifully, right after the words left her lips she felt a pin prick to her neck and suddenly something was tugging at her consciousness.
Right before she blacked out she heard the hissing mans reply. “Well, then we’ll just have to take him with us.”
“You should have let me die, cute little Suki-chan.” The creature muttered as it curled up in the corner on the cold floor.
“I’m sorry Akira-niisama…” Natsuki still refused to look up, her body still trembling but her mind was slowly shutting down. Trying to block out the past and her current situation her mind tried to black out, to hide itself and its owner from the pain.
Sasuke was displeased. Hell, he was beyond displeased, the boy was pissed off. He had finally arrived back at the compound after three days of completing Orochimaru’s meaningless errand and his whore wasn’t where she was suppose to be. He had dropped off the secret scroll and made his way to his chambers, expecting to find Natsuki within it. Yet, he opened the door only to find it empty. He had an awful feeling that something was wrong, and he didn’t like it. He didn’t like the twisting of his stomach or the weight on his heart at the thought of Natsuki being in trouble. These were emotions and feelings he had thrown away, warmth he had willed himself to loose, in order to achieve his goal. Even as he told himself over and over not to bother looking for her, and to just forget the girl, Sasuke still ended up stalking down the corridors towards Kabuto’s sick laboratory.
‘I swear if I even sense her presence there, I’ll murder him.’ With a glare already set in his eyes Sasuke threw the door open. His eyes quickly found the sick medic and he didn’t bother to wait for greetings. “Where is she?”
