For My Little Brother – Chapter 6: Moving Forward
-.-.-
Hidan grew up with a perfectly normal family in suburbia. His dad was a mailman, and his mom was a car insurance salesperson. He had two little sisters and lived in a perfect little house. As a child his intellect shocked his teachers and he skipped three grade levels, where his short stature due to his younger age caused him to stick out and be bullied - of course Hidan didn't like that. So he left little gifts of dead animals in the other kids bags, but no one could prove it was him even though they all knew. No one tried to bully him again.
When he was 7 he was a junior in high school. Forced by school policies to join a club, he decided to join the least stupid one he could find - a club called Jashinism. Jashinism was led by a kid named Delio Norm. Delio was a paranoid teenager after his own parents tried to kill him - believing everyone was out to get him, he created his own religion - Jashinism - which was based on destruction and death. The high school students laughed and played and talked about their murderous tendency - but they were just kid dumb kids, they weren't serious. Everyone that is, except Hidan who couldn't understand how they could dare insult Jashinism by claiming to believe in it if they weren't going to act on it. Deciding to purify the religion, Hidan murdered the entire club the year after he graduated - in a way that no one could trace it to himself. He didn't want to go to jail after all.
Following these events, Hidan did what every true believer does - made his own church, had a custom amulet made as a symbol of his love for the god Jashin, and got some interesting blood filled prayer beads. There was only one thing missing in his life. Immortality. Hidan wanted it, he needed it. His Jashinistic rituals required him to be less mortal. True all that self inflicted pain gave Hidan a high pain tolerance, it wasn't enough. He needed more. Hidan began his search for immortality by going back to Delio Norm's hometown. Not having realized the boy made everything up, he searched for Delio's source of Jashinism and could not find it, and ultimately decided that whoever taught Delio must have been a true Jashinist to leave behind no traces. Hidan's respect for the nonexistent man grew.
One day, a lawyer looked at him the wrong way, so Hidan printed out a law degree on the internet deciding that he could apply for a position at the lawyers office, with the intention of taking his time and destroying the man before ultimately killing him. Mental torture was one aspect of Jashinism Hidan needed to work on after all. Well, he somehow took a wrong turn and ended up at Pain Investigations and somehow got a job at a rival corporation even after screaming that his degree was fake - he had to hand it to the dark angel, Konan. He had respect for the woman who managed to somehow torture him in ways he hadn't yet imagined – maybe she was Delio's source? How rare that he respected someone. The rest is history - just like Liam Avery (see chapter 3, paragraph 2-4 if you forgot who this is).
Throughout all his time anywhere, Hidan never made friends. No one knew this much about him. That is, until Kisame Hoshigaki - a man who somehow figured out not only Hidan's desire for immortality, but had a way to achieve it. For a price, Kisame was willing to give Hidan information about a man who had lived to be 200 years old and had a "young" body.
-.-.-
Danzo was furious. That blasted terrorist had killed several of his best men, and seriously injured the others. Worse, he either blew up or took off with a significant chunk of money that was actually from Konohagakure's taxpayers. Explaining where it went would be difficult... Perhaps some really expensive coffee.
Anyway, Danzo was furious. He had to get rid of that bomber somehow, explain the missing money and find the Uchiha brothers. Problem is he had no idea where to begin and the elections were today - if he missed this he would have to wait 8 years to be able run again, he could not miss this, not after all the people he trampled on to get this far. His most immediate concern was coming up with the money.
What to do, what to do. Danzo contemplated.
-.-.-
Sasuke had decided to tell Naruto everything. He had played dead long enough – but now the question was how. Taking out his phone he texted Naruto.
Sasuke: Naruto, I need to talk to you. I will call you, tell me when you're free and there is no one else around. Also when we talk, do not say my name aloud just in case there is someone around to overhear.
With that, Sasuke put away his phone and closed his eyes. What will happen after I tell him? What can I do to make sure my plan works?
-.-.-
Kisame watched his now sleeping boyfriend. Boyfriend. That was a word he hadn't used to describe someone in a long time.
What do you really want Uchiha Itachi? I know you are more then you appear to be. Indeed, seeing the boy's accomplishments had set off alarms in Kisame's mind. He believed the boy had nothing to do with the cops – but he didn't believe the boy's true intentions. He didn't really trust the kid, even if he wanted to.
There were a lot of things potential lovers would want from Kisame, love generally was not one them. Actually, it never was. Money would be the primary one – the Hoshigaki family was one of the wealthiest in the country, perhaps in the top thousands in the world. Prestige was another, the Hoshigaki name was very well known and had hundreds of years of history behind it. Influence was yet another thing – Kisame had a lot of pull in politics and in the underground world, in addition to technology most people hadn't dreamed of and science that wasn't ever likely to reach the general populace – his power was certainly not to be underestimated. Heck, it could even be something crazy like that one man who tried to seduce Kisame so that he could do research on some of the plant species found in a cave which only the Hoshigaki family had access to. Yes, there were a lot of things people wanted from Hoshigaki Kisame – the man had yet to have a single relationship in which the other partner did not have some ulterior motive. Not a single partner had ever truly loved him.
And why would they? Kisame was intimidating, difficult to deal with, distrusting, and possessive. Not only that he was scary – the shark like tribal tattoos that were tattooed on every Hoshigaki at a very young age coupled with his unusually tall and muscular body incited fear in a lot of people. He had even been described as a monster.
Uchiha Itachi was special though – he was difficult to read. Kisame could not figure out the kid's motive – he had already given Itachi everything that he claimed he wanted when the two spoke that night after Kisame found out the details of Itachi's identity. But that also made him more dangerous – Itachi was a genius. He was smart, he knew exactly what he was doing – heck he probably knew what he was doing when he got seriously injured trying to seduce Kisame by playing the innocent kid. But that serious injury just told Kisame that the kid would go to great lengths to get Kisame, even as far as getting himself painfully injured just to create the illusion of attraction – but for what reasons? Why did Itachi want Kisame that badly? What was his goal, his purpose?
Itachi had accused Kisame of hiring people to lie to him – and after thinking about it, Kisame had to admit that Itachi was right. After admitting this to himself and seeing just how far Itachi would go for his own ideals, Kisame made a decision. He would give Itachi everything – all the money, prestige, power, influence, whatever he wanted. It wasn't like Kisame wasn't attracted to Itachi. He was. He wanted Itachi more then he had wanted anything in a long time. And Itachi was willing to play the role of boyfriend and be everything Kisame wanted. So why not let him? It was a good deal – they would both get exactly what they wanted.
Kisame just had to be careful that as much as he gave Itachi, it wasn't so much that the boy would leave because he got everything he wanted. Now that Itachi was his, he planned to keep it that way – he wasn't going to mess this up like last time.
Kisame reached out and held Itachi's hand, smiling as he thought about the wonderful lie that their relationship was – he didn't want this illusion to end. Maybe lies weren't so bad after all – the truth would be too painful for Kisame to bear. At least in this illusion he could pretend he was loved and Itachi, being the greatest actor Kisame had met to date, would play the role perfectly.
As he thought this, Kisame heard the familiar text tone as his phone vibrated. Pulling it out, he began texting.
Sasori: Danzo's election is coming up, he won't be able to explain the money, if we detonate the bombs Dei put up we can basically seal Minato's victory as hokage.
Kisame: Good. Step one will be complete, but we need to actually get rid of Danzo if Sasuke and Itachi are to be able to use their actual names and stop hiding.
Sasori: So, after the election we continue to stage 2 of the plan?
Kisame paused, looking up from his phone and over at Itachi, who currently, with his lack of identity, could not actually go anywhere else. Right now Itachi relied on Kisame – the only one who could protect him and his little brother, and give them everything they could hope for while hiding. Itachi needed Kisame. Without Danzo hovering over their heads, Itachi could easily reclaim his former job and go to places no one else had gone with his incredible intellect. He would thrive. He wouldn't need Kisame. With a sinking feeling at the thought, Kisame looked back at his phone.
Kisame: No. We aren't going through with stage 2, inform Hidan, Kakuzu & Karin. We will leave Danzo alive for now…
Sasori: Seriously? After all this trouble?
Kisame: Just do it. I have other plans now.
Sasori: 'Kay.
-.-.-
Kisame walked into Sasuke's waiting room, grateful that someone actually labeled it "Sasuke's room" in the map app – everything was so convenient.
With a pause, he knocked and heard the child's "come in."
Kisame entered the room where Sasuke was sitting at his desk, a pencil in hand. He looked over at Kisame, surprised.
"What are you doing here?" Sasuke asked surprised. "Itachi isn't here."
"I'm not here for Itachi." Kisame replied walking over to Sasuke's desk. As he approached, Sasuke covered the papers with his arms as inconspicuously as possible.
"What are you here for?" Sasuke asked suspiciously.
"I overheard you talking to your brother about wanting to leave… And protect everyone."
"Yeah." Sasuke said, staring directly into Kisame's eyes. He was an Uchiha, he was not going to look weak, even if the man before him was terrifying.
"Well, I have a proposition for you…" Kisame said.
"Proposition?"
"Do you know anything about the man who killed your family?" Kisame asked, and Sasuke shook his head, saying no.
"His name is Danzo and he is running for hokage today." Kisame said.
"…" Sasuke didn't respond and just looked at Kisame.
"I happen to have already sabotaged his election, he won't win." Kisame continued. "Not only that I can have him killed in an instant."
"Have him killed." Sasuke said venomously, his eyes betraying the hate he felt.
"But that isn't good enough, is it Sasuke?"
"What do you mean?" Sasuke asked, with a hint of annoyance and anger.
"What I mean is death isn't good enough. We need to do more then just kill the man." Kisame said. "I think we should slowly torture him, make him suffer for what he did. He is truly awful, don't you think?"
"Go on." Sasuke said.
"I have a way to torture him until he wants to kill himself, but he won't be able to get that sweet release of death." Kisame said, his eyes gleaming sadistically. "And I can make sure your friends are protected, as you say."
"How's that?"
"I have friends who are capable of amazing things. I'll even give you the power to watch over them and make sure they're safe." Kisame said.
"I don't want that. I want to be there myself. And I want Danzo to die, I don't care if he suffers or not." Sasuke said.
"Alright let me put this another way." Kisame said, wishing Sasuke was more sadistic. "I personally want Danzo to suffer, and right now the only one here capable of doing that is me. If you went to Konohagakure right now you'd put Itachi in danger and make everything he worked so hard for worthless. Not only that your friends would be in danger. You aren't capable of killing Danzo."
"I know that." Sasuke said, angrily. His fists clenched and his eyes were furious. "I know."
"I'll teach you. I'll show you how you can kill him, and I'll take my time torturing him in the meantime. When it's time, you can get your revenge and protect everyone. Until then, I'll make sure Danzo isn't a threat to your friends in Konoha."
"Why do you want to torture Danzo?" Sasuke said. "It's not like he killed your family."
"I have my own personal reasons for hating the man." Kisame said. "Do we have a deal?"
"Why are you helping me?" Sasuke asked suspiciously.
"I have something I want from you."
"What's that?"
"Stop worrying your brother by talking about wanting to leave and go back to Konoha. I'll give you the means." Kisame said. "You may have suspected this already but your brother is not my butler. He is actually a very important hidden figure in Hoshigaki Corporations and if I were to lose him I'd lose a significant amount of wealth. He might not have told you because if he did and you accidently let it be known he would lose his job."
"And when I finally kill Danzo, Itachi won't work for you anymore. What then?" Sasuke asked.
Damn is this kid really seven? He's a genius like his brother. Though Itachi is a bit more so – maybe it's the age thing? Kisame thought, realizing this was a little harder then he thought it would be.
"I hope that by then Itachi will have a greater sense of loyalty towards the Corporation, but even if he doesn't I will cross that bridge when I get there." Kisame responded, unable to come up with something adequate.
"Fine." Sasuke said. "We have a deal."
-.-.-
Naruto: Sasuke, I'm free, you can call.
Sasuke: There's been a change of plans, Naruto. I won't be calling. Sorry. I have some things I need to do.
Naruto: Okay… Is everything alright?
Sasuke: Yes. Tell me about your day or something.
Naruto: You saw it all.
Sasuke: On second thought I am going to call you.
Sasuke dialed the number and waited – Naruto picked up on the first ring.
Naruto: Hello?
Sasuke: Naruto.
Naruto: It's really you!
Sasuke: Who else did you expect?!
Naruto: I don't know. I just can't believe we're talking. Is this real?
Sasuke: Yes. Naruto, listen. I'm alive. I never died. I made up all that stuff about being in heaven.
Naruto: All of it?
Sasuke: Yes, all of it.
Naruto: Where are you?
Sasuke: I can't tell you, I'm in hiding because the one who killed the rest of my family wants me dead too. But I want you to know I'm alive.
Naruto: Why me?
Sasuke: Because we're friends!
Naruto smiled.
Naruto: What will we do? Who is that guy?
Sasuke: Don't worry about that right now. I just wanted to call and tell you I'm actually alive. I'll need your help later, but for now let's keep in touch until it's time to take that guy down. We can't do it right now, but we can later.
Naruto: What should I do so we can take him down later?
Sasuke: Participate in local politics, get to know everyone and don't slack off. I'll tell you more when I can come up with it.
Naruto: Okay.
-.-.-
Danzo had not been able to explain the money away when his competitor Minato pointed it out in the debate before the election. No one believed that Danzo needed eighty million ryo worth of coffee. Not only that, just an hour before the election Danzo was arrested after information connecting him to the terrorist Deidara came to light. Minato won the hokage election be default.
The bombs that Deidara had planned to let off in Konoha to seal the deal did not go off at Kisame's urging.
Danzo plotted from within his jail cell, ready to take back what he believed was rightfully his own.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Eight years later
-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Naruto!" Kiba called as he approached the blonde's locker in school. "Are you texting your boyfriend again?"
"He's not my boyfriend!" Naruto said, quickly hiding his phone, but not before pressing send on a text to Sasuke.
"Pfft. Yeah right." Kiba responded. "Shino, Hinata and I are going the festival of cats tomorrow night, wanna come?"
"Nah, I have to work." Naruto said.
"Can't you take some time off?"
"Wish I could, but it's not like criminals stop their crimes for festivals." Naruto said with a laugh. He was an intern at the local police force.
"You don't do anything even remotely close to actual police work." Kiba said, rolling his eyes.
"Yes, well I still have to show up while the real cops do the real work." Naruto responded.
"Fine, fine, I'll see you in calculus later." Kiba said, walking off so he wouldn't be late for class.
-.-.-
Sasuke was waiting in elevator, smiling as he looked at his phone. His background was a picture of Naruto in a police officer's uniform from Halloween. The elevator dinged and Sasuke quickly shut off his phone and his face returned to its default scowl.
The office that Sasuke entered was decorated with modern furniture and paintings. Everything was spaced out and futuristic, heavily focused on the colors black and white.
"I've been expecting you." Kisame said from behind the CEO's desk. "I just never though you'd come to me at work, I mean you could've just waited for me to come home."
"I'd rather talk here." Sasuke said, approaching the desk. "It's time to go to Konoha. I'm ready to deal with Danzo, especially now that the next hokage election is coming up."
"I agree." Kisame said. "I too was thinking it was about time."
"You were?" Sasuke asked. "What about Itachi?"
"What about him?" Kisame asked.
"Didn't you say you needed him for the company or whatever? Without Danzo over our heads what do you intend to do?" Sasuke asked. "I never thought you'd make it easy for me."
"On the contrary I intend to give you every possible resource to succeed. I want you and Itachi to get your identities back, and to put an end to Danzo. I've had my fun torturing the man. As for Itachi… I would be sad to see him go, but in the end it will be his decision. I will give him a very lucrative offer, and hope it's enough for him not to leave."
"Hmph." Sasuke grunted in acknowledgement that Kisame spoke.
"Here." Kisame said sliding a USB thumb drive towards Sasuke. "It contains information you need to get to Danzo. As for getting to Konoha and a false identity, passports and other such things, talk to Umi, she'll get you what you need."
Sasuke picked up the USB drive and left, not even bothering to thank Kisame.
The brat. Kisame thought. Sasuke was nothing like Itachi now that he grew up. Though thinking of Itachi brought up a whole new set of problems in Kisame's mind as he furrowed his brow in thought.
