"Stray"
Chapter 1: Intro
"I said look at me, bitch." Pleading amethyst eyes looked up from their place on the shaggy carpet and locked with intense chocolate ones. "You know what, I'm not even in the mood anymore." The demon backhanded his victim's soft, pale cheek, then gently rubbed those magenta painted lips in an almost apologetic fashion. "Mangetsu," he breathed, the smell of alcohol stinging the teen's nostrils, "that's such a nice colour on you." He placed a very rough kiss on said lips and walked out the room, slamming the door behind him.
That damn Zabuza was always so demanding. It was only 20 minutes ago when he had dumped a bunch of cosmetics in his room and ordered Mangetsu to dress up as a woman. "Fuck man" he muttered as he walked into the adjacent bathroom. He flicked on the lights and pulled his snow-white hair out of the stylish bun he had crafted, flinching at his reflection in the mirror.
Mangetsu looked so much like a girl. In fact he had always looked like a girl, being so short with such slender arms, rounded shoulders and long silky hair. And the makeup definitely didn't help his case. He was sure the reason Zabuza had him do it was because of how degrading it would be. Next time, he would be sure to leave his insecurities out of their personal conversations.
The teen noticed a bruise forming on his cheek where the man had slapped him and sighed. It had hurt, but it was nothing compared to the pain he could've been feeling later that night. He grabbed a tissue and wiped away the magenta film on his lips and was about to remove his eye makeup when he heard a gentle knock on his bedroom door. "Hey aniki, it's me. Can I come in?" a playful voice rang. "Of course," Mangetsu replied, "just give me a sec." He hastily wiped away the jet black eyeliner, leaving only the stubborn waterline. He couldn't let his little brother see him like this. It would only raise questions. Questions with uncomfortable answers.
"Hey Suigetsu" Mangetsu smiled, opening the door. The child pitter-pattered into the room and gave his elder brother the strongest, hardest hug he could muster. "Aniki" he muttered, sinking into the embrace. After what semed like ages the two parted and Mangetsu closed the door.
He kneeled down and met matching amethyst eyes that seemed to be brimming with concern. "Mangetsu, what happened to your face?" He pointed with a stubby finger to the spot where the demon had slapped him. "Ohh," he said nonchalantly, "it's nothing. I just got hurt while on a mission with Zabuza-senpai earlier." Suigetsu smiled shyly and pecked his older brother on the cheek. "Feel better now?" "Of course."
He looked at his little brother again. The two were almost carbon copies, with the exception of ages. They had the same white hair, the same purple eyes, and even the same pointy teeth. But Suigetsu was much more innocent than his older brother. In fact, Mangetsu was hardly innocent.
The two brothers had been made orphans by the Third Shinobi World War. Mangetsu was 13; Suigetsu was 7. The two were out in the streets fighting for their lives and dying of starvation when they were picked up and adopted by the wealthy Zabuza Momochi. This man fed them, clothed them, and let them live in his mansion. To the two brothers he was the greatest man alive, and they vowed they would do anything for the demon.
After Mangetsu turned 16, he learned the true nature of the beast. Zabuza was really a drug lord, the complete master of the cocaine industry of the Land of Waves. He was also a full time pimp. Being so rich and powerful meant that literally every woman would throw themselves in his lap and beg for sex. But he was never satisfied with those women. He wanted Mangetsu, and the teen would never forget the day his innocence was taken.
Two years later and Mangetsu was still nothing more than Zabuza's personal whore. A sex slave. More than anything, Mangetsu wanted to save his baby brother from this fate. But Suigetsu was growing up to be a rather handsome boy. In a few years, he would be ripe for the demon's taking. Mangetsu would let Hell would freeze over before he let that man lay his filthy hands on his brother.
But really, Suigetsu was growing up to be very attractive and Mangetsu couldn't quite put a finger on how that made him feel. Sure he was jealous, but there seemed to be something else. A morbid thought had crossed his mind, but he made quick to force it back the the depths. Those kinds of feelings were definitely not okay.
"Mangetsu-nii," the young boy chuckled as the two plopped on the bed, "why do you smell like perfume?" Mangetsu blushed, remembering Zabuza's earlier fantasy gone awry. He laid down and stared at the ceiling, contemplating how could he possibly explain something like that to his 12-year-old brother? "Oh uhm, part of our mission involved being around kuniochi. I guess I must've picked up their scent."
It wasn't entirely the truth, hell it was barely the truth, but Mangetsu was praying his little brother would drop it. Suigetsu pouted and laid down too, nuzzling up to his big brother. "When can I start going on missions?" Mangetsu sighed, wishing he could inform his baby brother of the very nature of these 'missions'. Murder, prostitution and drug trafficking were not suitable jobs for anybody, let alone an unsuspecting 12-year-old boy.
The snow-haired child looked up with wide amethyst eyes and frowned. "Aniki, your bruise... it must hurt." He reached up to kiss Mangetsu's cheek again and snuggled as close to his big brother as possible. "Don't worry Sui, it could be much worse." The elder ran his hands through his long white hair then hesitantly wrapped his arm around Suigetsu. The child sunk into the embrace and drifted off to sleep.
Mangetsu watched as the boy's chest moved up and down, inhaling and exhaling. Everything about this child was so innocent and beautiful and the teen was jealous. He gently shifted away Suigetsu's white bangs and placed a kiss on his forehead. "It could be much worse."
Author's Note: Well welcome to my second fanfic "Stray". This story has no relation to "All I Want" whatsoever and has an entirely different plot.
I was originally going to use this as a one-shot but I rather like it and want to continue it. It sorta upset me how there's so many Uchihacest fics out there and no Hozukicest ones I thought I should write my own.
"Stray" will be theme based rather than the random-as-fuck spaz style I use for "All I Want". I'm hoping using themes will help me develop the plot better. *sobs because I don't want my fics to fall apart!*
Anyway this was just the intro, so if you'd like more please follow/favorite/review
