YAY! It's vacation, at last! No math and physics at the moment :D
Here's a little something written for a prompt in a Sengoku Basara Kink Meme somewhere in LJ.
Kasuga peeled off her ninja suit slowly and without worry – she'd gone to the river a little while ago since she hadn't been given any mission and was free to do whatever she pleased to. She didn't plunge herself into the water immediately for fear of getting seen – nobody wandered this deep inside the forest except for wandering warriors, swordsmen and other such individuals. She'd bathed here several times since the start of her service under Kenshin, and so far not a single soul had so much as seen her bare shoulders, let alone her nude body.
After she hung her suit on a low branch of a nearby tree, she headed off to the water's surface. Her pace was slow, the movement of her hips in rhythm with her every step – the complete opposite of the way she'd been trained to move.
She sighed contentedly as she submerged herself in the cool water – the sensation was almost as relaxing as what one experiences when dipping in a hot spring. She ran her hands through different parts of her body to massage some sore muscles – she hadn't come to the body of water to actually cleanse herself.
A few minutes into her dip though, she heard a faint rustling of leaves from the mass of trees surrounding the river. She flashed near the riverbanks, letting her body remain immersed in the water. She had the strongest hunch that the noise wasn't created by an animal – no animal was as stealthy as that.
"Who's there?"
A long silence followed, and she wanted to hit herself for acting so carelessly – of course the culprit wasn't going to just present himself so easily after he'd skillfully hid himself under the cover of the forest. She wanted to at least get into the kimono she'd bought with her, but no way was she going to get out of the water now that she knew there was someone watching her from the shadows.
Again, she tried her luck. "Reveal yourself, pervert." She didn't want to taunt the peeping tom, but if it was the only way to get him to reveal himself, then she'd do it as many times as possible. Hell, she won't even mind fighting naked if she was given no other choice – she always fought half-naked in her plunging-neckline cat suit, after all.
The sound of leaves rustling under feet alerted her of movement, and she quickly turned towards the origin of the sound, throwing a kunai in the process.
"Whoa! You carry weapons even when you bathe?" a muffled male voice she knew all too well resounded through the forest quiet. Sasuke emerged from the woods, the kunai she had just thrown in between his teeth. His hands were held up in surrender as he continued to walk forward.
"Shut up, Sarutobi." Kasuga stared at him with a death glare, wishing she'd postponed her dip-in-the-river to a later date.
Sasuke removed the kunai from in between his teeth and crouched by the bank's edge, all his attention directed towards Kasuga. "I can explain."
"You don't need to explain anything." She didn't think there was no decent and plausible reason behind him hiding himself - she was positive he was watching her to feed his sick fantasies.
"Let's just say it was extremely hard to not notice you stripping off-" Sasuke had to stop talking to dodge the several waves, which Kasuga had created by striking the water, coming at him.
"Be on your way, Sarutobi Sasuke!" her face turned red as beet from the effort of shouting. Her anger got the best of her, and she flashed out of the water and charged towards Sasuke without thinking too much. She realized a little too late how she'd basically offered herself to him the moment she let her anger take over her.
