It was dark, silence reigned in the streets. A boy walked down them, fairly raven haired, onyx eyes, many knew him to be Uchiha, Sasuke Uchiha.

The Uchiha walked home on his own, he'd finally finished his daily training exercisers, being held back for much longer because he had sparred with Kakashi-sensei this time. One would consider such an idea a, well, very bad one considering Kakashi-sensei was a Jounin and Sasuke was just a genin. At least they would only think that in Sasuke's case.

Now Sasuke's body was completely sore from head to toe since he demanded that Kakashi would not go easy on him. Of course Kakashi did protest, well more like turned his head away in disapproval and look into his book. Sasuke wasn't one to take no for an answer unless he had to. So he continued to persistently prod the Jounin into fighting him at full strength , thinking 'my god Naruto's rubbing of on me,' until he was finally sparing with him.

Now because of that he was almost completely numb and through everything Kakashi had still gone easy on him. He sighed in annoyance but was rather proud of exactly how long he could last Kakashi and the level of strength that was used against him. If Kakashi was still with him, he would agree, not many of his sparring partners could last to long against him in battle when he was serious.

His muscles were spent at the moment, he needed rest, and he had pushed himself a little to hard against him. Sasuke rubbed his left arm, soothing the sore muscles. He rounded a corner, watching as the light from the streetlights faded behind him. He had gone down this alley many times but never at night, this was the first for him. Nor,ally he would leave around sunset, then would walk down here while the sun was still up.

As the shadows crept along the walls, fading into complete darkness as light faded, it showed Sasuke exactly how intimidating this alley was at night. He shook it off, as if he was going to let something like this scare him, especially since he had been through much worse. As he walked farther, instead of fading into the darkness, the shadows seemed to get larger and more frightening. He was beginning to become intimidated by the freaky phantoms but not scared, there was no light behind him. He didn't remember the alleyway being this long before or at least didn't notice.

All the while that he was walking, he could swear that something or someone was watching him but every time he turned to try and get a glimpse of it, he would be greeted with nothing, complete silence.

He just noticed that he had been staring down at the ground for a while, as he looked up he surprisingly saw another path in the alley and at the end of it was...his home. 'Strange...' He stood confused for a few moments before thinking "I don't remember that being here or maybe I just haven't noticed it before...oh well might as well, its closer to home I guess." Normally Sasuke would have ignored this and kept walking because he did not believe that he had ever even seen that path before and well, he had more common sense usually. The only reason that he was doing this without even thinking about it was because, just like his body, his mind was completely stressed to it's limits and just didn't consider any possible danger that could come from this.

Quickening his pace, just slightly, his discomfort of this place growing by the minute until he finally reached its end. A sigh escaped his lips as he muttered "finally..." Sasuke wasn't one to be taken surprise of often and at the moment there was this incredibly nagging and uncomfortable feeling, growing very suspicious and just knew something was going to happen. His suspicions were proven, as he activated his sharingan, only to notice that he was surrounded by shinobi who hid themselves in a genjutsu.

"Crap..."

He continued to move forward, acting as if he had not noticed them just to see if they were actually going to attack him because they could just be hiding their position, for whatever reason he did not know. He passed by one of them, "no reaction, that's good." He did not stop to turn and look back because he would indefinitely know if the ninja were to attack him from behind. A second one, the same result, a third, a fourth and a fifth. None reacted to him passing them by; Sasuke's theory was that they weren't going to attack him. There was only one more and this one looked none to happy as well. Based on his different clothing and gruff appearance, Sasuke guessed that he was the leader.

He glared at Sasuke who pretended to not notice him. Standing side by side with the man, Sasuke stopped. He looked up into the sky but was really trying to pay as close attention to them as possible, figuring he wasn't going to get anything out of them he continued.

They had been none the wiser to why he had stop for reason Sasuke was quite sure he knew he felt a couple of chakra flares, they were angry. Why? He was sure he knew but he would wait. "Uchiha...Sasuke...it's considered rude to ignore your opponent." He was right; he turned to face them and muttered "so you noticed. You weren't exactly that hard to sense."

A laugh, "I suppose we weren't but doesn't matter anyway since you're in no condition to fight anyone anyway. No point in try to..." He didn't bother to finish his sentence as he charged at Sasuke, the others following his example. Sasuke fought them off as best he could in consideration of how worn out his body was but in the end they overwhelmed him but not without him taking out two of them first. Sasuke yelled out every curse word he could think of at his assailants as they pinned him to the dirt.

Other than his worn out muscles he had taken new wounds, kunai had sliced through his flesh, staining his skin red. Even though it was rather dark, he could see the smirk on the leaders face. The others had backed off and were now watching for anyone that would pass by. Two of them chased after two pedestrians, one a female who shrieked when she saw she was being chased and another, a male who was running after the female in an attempt to help her and was also being chased.

Two were knocked out; two were gone, leaving only one and the leader. Sasuke squirmed under his grip in defiance; he wasn't going to let him hold him down without a fight no matter how tired he was. A chuckle was heard above him, a sly and threatening voice growled "no point in struggling Sasuke Uchiha. It doesn't matter because no matter what you do, you're not going to escape my grip." Sasuke knew his words were the truth; he wouldn't be able to fight him off in the state he was in at the moment. Completely worn out and chakra drained but in his all natural defiance he continued to struggle.

He thought "damn it!"

A hand slid up his thigh while another restrained his hands, Sasuke's eyes widened in surprise as his captor pressed his lips against his causing the boy to thrash under him more vigorously. Once the supposedly older man had pulled away, Sasuke's anger built up and he barked "what the hell do you think you're doing!"

"Oh nothing much, just checking out my new pet."

His eyes went blood red and thought "to hell with the fact that I don't have enough chakra, I'm gonna kick this guy's ass!" The man, feeling the anger burn into him, shifted slightly in discomfort. Sasuke was about to lunge at the man, not caring if he was on top of him or not when he just...stopped. His body froze, 'this feeling, w-what is it!?' He felt eyes watching him, the same eyes as before, there was a sudden yell coming from behind him.

His captor looked forward and Sasuke found himself unconsciously looking to see what the commotion was. It was almost to dark to see but he was sure he saw a figure seemingly flying through the air. It lunged at the 'guard' that had just been standing there, keeping a look out and knocked him out cold...or killed him. The one on top of him growled angrily, there was a thudding noise of the body of the other ninja and also one from when the 'leader' struck Sasuke in the chest, something small and sharp entering his flesh. The man got off of him and faced the unknown assailant head on, there was dizziness, and Sasuke knew he had just been drugged. He couldn't concentrate, he couldn't move and he was losing consciousness, fast. The sharingan faded from his eyes and breathing grew ragged. As the darkness completely engulfed his vision he saw the man charge at his unknown foe before

silence...
