Living with Orochimaru
A/N: Hello, this is actually a revised version of my first Naruto fanfic. It has been some years since I wrote it but I thought about giving it a chance again. XD
This fic is about Yuki (a girl that was rescued by Orochimaru and trained by him) and her daily life among the snake sannin, the sadistic medical ninja and a friend named Yamaki who lives there with them.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto as it belongs to Masashi Kishimoto. (if I did then Orochimaru would be the main character. XD)
Chapter 1 – Stop being so mean!
"Orochimaru-sama, stop this! This is not funny!" a young girl in her early twenties shouted now sitting on her bed. "I know it was you and you're still here, so come out!" she pointed accusingly to the empty room. Actually, it just appeared to be empty.
"You are so easily scared...Yuki." whispered a man, who literally walked away from the shadows and stopped at her side with an amused smirk.
"Anyone will get scared when you have just awakened and the first thing you see is a pair of golden eyes inches away of you!" the girl named Yuki replied while trying to hit him on the head with her pillow. Needless to say, her intent was not succesfull.
"I was just curious, you were blushing and talking in your sleep." said Orochimaru caressing her cheek with his hand. At this point, Yuki was turning purple, with shame, anger, or both.
The girl just stared at him with her mouth hanging open like a fish out of water.
"Orochimaru-sama! How can you just walk into my room, then sit on my bed and stay here looking at me while I sleep?!" she said, almost hitting him with her pillow of doom.
"That's rather obvious." The man replied calmly brushing his hair out of his face. "This may be your room, however it belongs to this hideout, which is so conveniently mine." At each word, he dodged an attack. "You see, I can walk in here when I feel inclined to do so." He finally concluded at the same time he managed to snatch the pillow out of her hands and then proceeded to sit at her side again. "You were late to your training today." He added in a more serious tone. "Don't do it again."
"I will ask if Kabuto-san can make some sort of snake repel." She mumbled crossing her arms over her chest, ignoring his warning. "I will spray it all over the room. Maybe then some "snakes" will stop entering when they are not supposed to!"
"My, it's amazing how your words can wield even more venom than most my snakes." Orochimaru replied her sarcastic statement with an evil grin.
"Of course! I'm living with a full sized snake for as long as I remember." She tought while picking some clothes in her drawer, pretty aware that her visitor didn't even move from his previous spot. "If you don't mind, Orochimaru-sama, I need to change my clothes. Could you please leave for a moment?"
He looked at her with an almost amused expression and finally got up. On his way out, he made a comment about her fashion choices that made Yuki blush even more than before and throw the closest kunai at his head, which he dodged with a very audible chuckle.
"How dare he? As much as I know, I'm not the only one who uses fancy clothing around here!"As she looked at herself in the mirror, her long brown hair was a knotted mess, giving her the appearance of a grumpy green eyed lion. "Agh look at that bed hair… I need to calm down, it's just 5 AM and my blood pressure already sky rockted because of him…"
Slowly, her temper got under control and soon enough the girl started to laugh. She knew Orochimaru was a serious man and way stronger than her, though she noticed how he always seemed to have fun when pestering her with the most trivial things.
After changing into her usual training outfit, Yuki proceeded to braid her hair, taking care to not tangle it on her only earring. It was a black half moon that she wore on her left ear. It was a gift she received after her first year there, and she treasured it ever since.
"You know, Kabuto-san still owes me after that stunt last week. I never thought someone could literally die of shame, I got awfully close to it that day…"
"Yuki-chan! Are you in there?" Kabuto called, holding as much books as it was humanly possible in his arms. He was standing outside one of the training rooms, the loud thud and clattering sound of something metallic falling on the ground that followed his call alerted him that she was indeed there.
Soon enough, Yuki emerged from the dark lit room holding her sword rather clumsily in her hands, and then swiftly sheated it without even looking what she was doing.
"I'm here! What's up, Kabuto-san? The moths are attacking the library again? I told you that we should open that thing more often. You remember the other day when you forgot to lock that door, my bedroom was so full of moths that I thought they would chew me to death!" the girl said all at once, making the young medical ninja frown his eyebrows in confusion.
"Slow down there! Calm yourself, I was just thinking if you could help me with these." He said gently while gesturing to the books.
"Oh, that's it? Sure, why not. What do you want me to do?" she asked, hoping that Kabuto wouldn't order her to clean the old archives that they called a library again. Last time she did it, it ended with her passing out on Orochimaru's lap after cursing the huge amount of dust and the newly found allergic outbreak.
"I was sorting some things for my research and found a few scrolls lying there that were not mine. Could you take them to Orochimaru-sama? I think he must be at his chambers by now." He said with a too innocent smile.
"Ok, there's something… fishy going on here." She thought with herself. "Kabuto-san is smiling like an idiot, so there's something really wrong here." she concluded while picking up the scrolls. Yuki could almost swear she heard a giggling sound from where the medic was standing as she walked away.
- At Orochimaru's room -
"Man! He really needs to clean this place once in a while, just look at that gross thing on that wall it is just... ewwww! I will have some serious, serious talk with him about letting me clean this mess!" the girl looking at the walls of the dark room, one of them had a really big spot that looked like blood.
"Orochimaru-sama! Are you here? Kabuto-san told me to bring you these scrolls, they might be yours."
Not even soul stirred. Just dead silence.
"Well if he's not here I will just leave these things somewhere and go back to clean the training grounds before Yamaki shows up there." As she made her way out, Yuki tried not to stumble around as it was hard to see where she was stepping as there were only two candles illuminating the room and one of them already went out.
Before she could even think where to put the scrolls, the girl colided heavily with something in the dark. It felt like something strangely...soft and warm?
"What the hell is this?! This 'thing' wasn't here just a second before." She started to poke the strange object in her way. To her surprise, the so called object sighed.
"Yuki...I would apreciate if you could stop poking my stomach, while it's not hurting me it is slightly annoying." said a well known voice in the dark.
"Oh crap! I was...poking...OROCHIMARU-SAMA!" She wanted to scream in embarassmente but her senses somehow managed to suppres the imminent show."I'm really sorry, Orochimaru-sama! I was just helping Kabuto-san, he asked me to- I didn't see you standing there and-" while the kunoichi tried to come up with some sort of apology for the rather unusual situation, she heard the rustling sound of his steps as he moved in the dark. The candles were lit again.
As the lights flicked alive, Yuki blinked her green eyes a few times to adjust her sight to the sudden brightness. Though she regretted doing so, what she saw next almost made the poor disgruntled girl have a fulminating heart attack.
Apparently, out of all things he could be doing until now, Orochimaru was just done taking a bath. His hair was still wet and he was certainly not wearing his usual kimono, just a pair of black pants and a white towel wrapped over his shoulders.
At this point, she didn't know if was best to run away or simply use a jutsu to sink in the ground forever.
"...Yuki, why are you sweating like that?" Orochimaru asked genuinelly concerned.
The best she could do now was to glare at the man.
"Oh, I don't know, maybe because you scared me half to death or because a certain sensei of mine is standing right in front of me with barely nothing on his wretched body and a freaking towel! At least, it is a nice view... but it still too shocking!" her mind raged while Yuki did her best to contain the impulse to speak them out loud. "...Er...uh...I...take your damn scrolls! I'm out of here! Bye, Orochimaru-sama!" she forced all the scrools in his arms and bolted for the door, falling twice on her way out.
For almost a whole minute, Orochimaru just stood there, now holding a pile of old scrolls and looking more confused than ever.
"Sometimes I really don't understand that girl and why she has this need to act like that everytime I'm around." He noted with a shrug.
"Yeah, that was a reeeally weird situation." Yuki stated as she strapped her sword by her waist, finally ready for the day.
Then, someone knocked on the door.
"Yuki-chan, can you do me a favor? I really need some help here." It was Kabuto's voice.
"I have seen this before..." she thought biting her lip. She was not going to fall twice in his devious scheming plots. She opened a crack in her door just wide enough to stare at the silver haired ninja.
"Do I need to take anything to Orochimaru-sama?" her brigt green eyes shined almost ominously as she inspected the man.
"What? Well...no."
"Then I will do it." She said to him now opening the door.
"Thanks Yuki-chan. Orochimaru-sama wouldn't be pleased if just entered his room again after that last fiasco with Yamaki and the pink kimono." Kabuto said with a big smile on his face while he pushed some towels on her hands.
"Of course. Who wouldn't be mad after a couple of clueless ninjas permanently dyed your clothes pink? Orochimaru-sama looked like a walking and very pissed cherry blossom for a whole day."
"Now good luck, Yuki-chan." Kabuto bowed shortly before he disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
"Wait a minute!" she took a look at the towels that once were white, now a radioactive green. The glow-in-the-dark kind of green. "You tricked me you sly silver weasel! Oh, Kabuto-san you're so dead when I find you after this!"
The Hellsing Alchemist (me): Well...
Orochimaru: "Well" what?
Me: What?
Orochimaru: ...
Me: So, what do you think?
Orochimaru: That was weird.
Me: ...
Orochimaru: What?
Me: Never mind, this is getting nowhere.
Orochimaru: I'm leaving.
Me: Hey! Wait, Orochi-sama! Come back here! You haven't said what I told you!
Orochimaru: What did I do to deserve this...
Me: I heard that...
Orochimaru: So... please read and review or she will never give some peace.
Me: Orochi-sama! That's not what I told you!
Orochimaru: What's the difference? I'm not lying...
Me: (pulling his earrings)
Orochimaru: Ok, ok... please read and review, any suggestion is welcome!
Me: Thanks Orochi-sama! (hugging him)
Orochimaru: I wonder what would happen if you didn't like me... (rubbing his ears)
Me: Now, I hope you had fun with this little story. I have a few chapters done but they need a serious revision. I will try update as soon as I can, and that includes my pokemon fanfic. (I will not abandon my stories, but sometimes work takes all the time I have do write. XD) Thanks for reading and see you later! ;D
