Just a little drabble I decided to write while listening to Alex G's and Kady Z's collaboration cover of "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons. This is just my take on Karin's inner emotions towards Sasuke, just judging by recent developments in the manga with Sasuke's apology and Suigetsu and Karin arguing between themselves about Karin's true feelings for Sasuke and yada-yada-yada…

Please enjoy this and I apologize for any mistakes present in this little drabble – hell, I wrote this at 1:25 in the morning, I must be nuts - and I'm clearly not making much sense of anything right now. I need to go sleep -_- but I'm losing beauty sleep over this drabble-one-shot.

Trust me, I'm going to be asleep until noon...

Not counting my pointless ranting, this little drabble – if we can even call it that – is 155 words long. With my pointless ranting, it's approximately 379 words… maybe it'll be over 400 if I don't stop typing. It's more than 379 words now but I've stopped counting… XD

Disclaimer: Nothing is mine. :-P


I hope it scares you, she thinks coldly as his eyes dart to steal a glance at her before they flicker away to look at something else; something nonexistent.

She wasn't forgiving easily, even if he had apologized. She wasn't going to be used for another one of his ploys again. She was done. No amount of convincing was going to make her forgive him that easily. Even if he really cared, his feelings could mean less to her.

Forgive and forget, her ass.

Not this time.

I'm waking up

I feel it in my bones

Welcome to the new age, the new age

Welcome to the new age, the new age

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

I'm radioactive, radioactive

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

I'm radioactive

Radioactive

And when she storms out of the room in a fit of anger, nobody tries to stop her. No apology – however sincere – was going to make everything right like before.


Reviews are appreciated! Hope you enjoyed this little ficlet/one-shot/drabble/thingy…

No romance really – that wasn't my intention here. :-/ My focus was more on Karin's emotions, but it was sort of an attempt to portray as little emotion as possible but all of the things she's been feeling all at the same time. I'll try and squeeze out a romantic little one-shot for this couple – I love them, even after all that Sasuke's done to Karin =_= – but I'm currently not in the mood for anything fluffy.

Fluffiness to come soon! Maybe for this couple, maybe not, I don't know… It depends how I feel… XD

Again, any and all reviews are appreciated! (Just keep the anti-SasuKarin hate to yourself. Nobody likes that and you wouldn't want somebody to bash your favorite pairings either, now would you?)

Oh, and I forgot - the song "Radioactive" belongs to Imagine Dragons and I make no profit off this. :/ (unfortunately)
