"It wasn't me."

"It wasn't me."

"It wasn't me."

Sasuke murmured repeatedly in front of the dead woman's blood-covered body as he flung the bloody knife away.

He had used his bare hands to do it… the fool.

He'd been summoned to her house, to their trap. He had been in the wrong place in the most wrong of times he could ever be.

The woman – he couldn't even remember her name – was on the floor, her brown eyes were facing at his direction – but not at him. Her usual Chinese double buns styled brown hair now were down – it would've probably reached her mid-waist if Sasuke had ever seen her like that.

He never did.

Not for a single minute, not for a single time had he given a second glance toward her whenever she came to the shop and now, he was paying for it.

Why now?

Why him?

Most importantly… Why him again?

Sasuke had obviously been arrested and now he was sitting in the backseat of a police car, accompanied by two other police officers, one sitting by his right side and the other one at the driver's seat. His hands were already bound by the handcuffs, and around them was a small and fluffy towel to keep the blood loss in control. They'd been wounded during his time in custody. Yes, he had already been past that stage.

They were bringing him to prison this time. They would put him in a cell, behind the cold iron shutters and right into the wolves' den where he would be eaten. He would be killed…

And she would die too.

He had one job to do and he was going to fail miserably. Sasuke swallowed deeply, painfully being reminded of the scar that was visible across his throat. Someone had attempted against him during his time in custody too. His scar was enough of a proof that he had been so close to being choked to death.

Sasuke had been quick to turn the tables in his favor, but the other guy had been quick to play the victim too, causing Sasuke to end up being deemed as crazy. Crazy enough to commit suicide.

As if he had that luxury. As if he had the guts.

He turned to look at his left, thankful that it did not raise a reaction out of the other two officers and saw a car speeding over the orange traffic lights.

It was just a split second, but the driver – the woman – glanced at his direction with tear-filled eyes, before looking to the front again and kicking the steering wheel frustratingly.

Sasuke had a second job to do. He shouldn't, in any circumstances, gain any big wounds on his body.

But probably, he did.

The car made a quick half-turn and collided with an upcoming truck that caused it to spin to the side. The only thing that Sasuke saw with his blurred black eyes was his head resting on his unconscious companion's shoulder.

AUTHOR'S NOTES


A Big Hello To Everyone of You!

So, I decided to post another fic… (even though I'm not even half-way through with *Scarlet Sun* /\"hashtag failure")

As the story suggests, it will be dwelling more on family drama. (ESPECIALLY with Sasuke and Sarada) so expect a cute and fluffy and angsty roller-coaster of emotions.

In another note, I swear I don't have a fetish over car accidents.

Hope you guys give it a try and end up liking it. So don't forget to leave a review here and there :') It would mean a lot to me.

ALSO, in case you have glanced over at my other fic before, English. Is. Not. My. First. Language., and I still suck with prepositions…

Bye for now *winks*
