Setting: This first part is basically the story of what happened while Sasuke was with Orochimaru.
I do not own any Naruto characters but I did however make up the mystery woman.
"Orochimaru are you sure this a good idea?" Kabuto asks.
"Kabuto I know you do not doubt my judgment…"
"Of course not… it's just that…," as Kabuto trails off Orochimaru looks towards the dark
corner where Sasuke suddenly appears. "I'm ready to begin training now", Sasuke says
glaring at Orochimaru. "Now now no need to be hasty…I brought you something
interesting" says Orochimaru as he smiles sinisterly. "Being rude again…you still have no
manners…you have not learned a thing", Kabuto says as he glares at Sasuke. "Whatever",
Sasuke replies dismissing Kabuto then he moves from the darkness into the dimly lit part
of the cave where Orochimaru, Kabuto, and someone else was standing off to the side of
Orochimaru. Just then the unknown person speaks revealing that it is a woman. "What the
hell is this! Orochimaru do you want me to take away another body of yours?" "Now now
don't be feisty he's going to be my next vessel" replies Orochimaru. "Vessel eh? Ok he'll
do. You there boy come on." She takes a step into the light towards Sasuke and he can
visibly see her. Sasuke's eyes suddenly grow bright red as he glares at the arrogant
female attempting to catch her in his genjutsu. She glares back at him and her eyes turn
bright purple. Then she turns and glares at Orochimaru coldly and replies, "I hope he is
as good as you say he is or else I'll kill you, he doesn't look like much." As Sasuke contiunes to
glare at her with his Sharingan he realizes What??? It's not working…who is this girl?
He then draws his sword and with precision and speed he has his sword at her throat,
yet she doesn't even seem shocked or surprised. He looks coldly at Orochimaru, "I don't have time to
waste on anymore useless losers. You promised to teach me a new jujutsu...Orochimaru." "But this is
so much better, you wanted to train and here is the perfect training partner...eh Sasuke-kun?"
replies Orochimaru curiously. "Never underestimate your opponents." the mysterious female states to an
unsuspecting Sasuke. He then realizes that at the time when his sword touched her neck her sword
was already drawn and aimed at the back of his neck, the tip right on his spinal cord. "Hmm…perfect lets
go.", replies Sasuke obviously impressed but showing it in his usual cold manner. As they leave Orochimaru
and Kabuto watch their departure with curiosity. "Interesting, don't you agree Kabuto?" "Yes very…maybe they
both could learn some manners… but why didn't you tell him… I mean she could kill him...right?" Kabuto questions.
"I'm just curious is all.", says Orochimaru smiling sinisterly. Sasuke leads the female to an open field
where he and Orochimaru practiced. Once they get there, they immediately draw their
swords, Sasuke flows Chidori through his sword and the female's sword glows purple as
their swords clash in a battle of wills. As soon as the swords clash Sasuke notices that his
Chidori is dispelled. He then quickly replaces his sword into his sheath and uses his fire
style jutsu. It is also quickly dispelled by a water jutsu of hers and she has not one scratch
or burn on her. He then ups the level of his fire jutsu by jumping in the air filling the
large field, which was quickly turned into a crater shortly after their battle began, with
fire. The whole crater he lit with fire quickly fills with water dispelling his fire. Then the
water quickly drains as he lands back in the crater and he is almost hit by her fist as he
dodges her close attack with precision. Her point of impact now being the crater wall to
his astonishment the whole crater wall crumbles creating a double crater, however the
side she hit being bigger than the original side they were fighting in. Just then
Orochimaru and Kabuto appear on the top edge of the newly created crater facing her as
her fist is still suspended in mid air. "Perfect, you two will be training together from now
on. Sasuke, I will still train you but this way you can get practice in when I am gone…"as
soon as he finishes his sentence a purple arrow grazed past his ear almost slicing it but
taking pieces of his hair hitting a mountain of rock behind him. The rock dissolves to
dust. "The next one won't miss…that's a promise... Don't interfere!" says the female. "How
dare you, you ungrateful…" begins a disgruntled Kabuto but he is cut off by Orochimaru.
"Sasuke I will put you in charge of her from now on, you will practice with her and see
that she gets the necessities. Every time you do this I guarantee you that you will get stronger.
As you can see she is a formidable opponent. Please escort her back to her quarters". "But
Orochimaru-sama...you intend to keep her around after she…" begins Kabuto yet again only to
be cut off by Orochimaru once again. "Kabuto I don't have time to punish an ungrateful child
now lets go." He begins to slowly vanish in flames. Kabuto glares at the female then slowly
vanishes in flames behind Orochimaru. Sasuke silently studies the female. She is a unique
individual after all… did I see fear in Orochimaru's eyes? Is he scared of her or curious? What purpose
does she hold; does he intend to use her for? Who is she? Her gaze meets Sasuke's after Kabuto
fully vanishes and she boldly observes him silently as well. He then breaks their stare as
he turns to walk back towards their hideout underground. He then realizes that she is still
standing where her left her. "Are you coming or are you just going to stand there?", Sasuke
asks. He begins to walks towards their hide out again while she reluctantly follows him
this time. He begins to think of what Orochimaru proposed to him. There is so much
about my opponent's skills and abilities that I don't know, but I must learn. She is a good
opponent indeed, neither my Sharingan nor my Kasengi sword infused with Chidori
seemed to work against her. On top of that she is a water type; however she seems to be a
wind type as well. I can't tell which her more dominant one is. What was that purple aura
flowing through her? Is that her chakra? What was that purple arrow she shot at
Orochimaru, I did not see a bow on her just her sword? By practicing with her can I
really become stronger? If Orochimaru is scared of her and she believes she can kill him,
then why is she here? I will take Orochimaru up on his offer then. As he concludes his
thoughts he then questions her, "you…who are you?" "What's it to you?", she replies. He is
taken aback for a moment before he replies, "It's nothing…If you are to be my opponent
then it won't matter." As they make their way to her living quarter where Orochimaru
informed him that he'd be taking her through his cursed seal, he sees dents all over the
walls in her room. "The smaller dents are when I first started here a few months ago. I've
trained myself thus far and through my progression they became wider and wider. My
last quarter was that dead end of rock we passed on the way here.", she informs Sasuke. He
begins to question Orochimaru's plans wondering why he had been keeping her from
everyone excluding Kabuto whom was taking care of her at first he presumed because he
did not seem shocked about her presence. He thought he knew of all the people
Orochimaru had in his possession, however it appears Orochimaru has a hidden agenda
with this girl. She breaks his concentration, "Sasuke?" He looks at her. "The name is
Suteki (素敵)."
