A/n: I hope you enjoy this. It was made by impulse because I freaking love this couple to death. This has been my otp since I was 12, and all the fanfics I've wrote about these two never really intrigued me. This one will last, I feel it in my nuggets. Anyways. It's 3 in the morning, it's October 11, and it's snowing where I am. I have Hockey practice at 5pm today, and I want to bake a cake. Hopefully. So I better get to bed. I'll write Chapter 2 tomorrow, seeing how this chapter is shamelessly short. Warning, there may be some slight OOC- Heck. There's a huge OOC!Hinata. Probable OOC!Sasuke. My first hockey game is on Friday. Wish me luck. Don't know yet if I'll be playing center this year or Defense. Hm. Love 'ya.


Astereognosis

Hinata felt dumb.

Not the lack of intellectual form of insignificance, no. She was well aware of her knowledge and was slightly cocky when it came down to her mental capability she claimed. She felt the dumbness soak into her skin, as if a lathering bath, and just sat there, engulfing the dumbness raw. Sitting in the bleak room, the walls barely lit from the candlelight that flickered weakly on the nightstand, she felt the paper cloth on her fingertips, and relished in its crisp texture, as if the feeling alone was something new to her, which might as well be.

Orochimaru smiled wickedly at the sight of the Hyuga Heiress perched delicately onto a bed that was provided for his testing subjects, and crossed his legs casually whilst keeping his gaze donning the young Kunoichi, "you're probably wondering where you are" he murmured, his sickening tone barely audible, although Hinata never heard such a loud voice in her life. Orochimaru laughed briskly once Hinata side-glanced at him, her vision holding no wavering curiosity he assumed it would attain, although he still chuckled, somewhat taunting her inadequate memory.

"You're thinking, 'who is this man?', 'who am I?', 'what am I doing?' or something along the lines of that, aren't you? Young heiress. Well, you see" he lifted his lanky body from the seat where was directly across from Hinata, and strode broadly over to her, placing his finger under her chin gently, Hinata made no movement, no flinch, no blush, no reaction whatsoever as his slender finger pressed down on the receptor hidden under her jaw.

"There's an injection point on your body that I created. It extracted the certain molecules that stabilized your Byakuugan. Least to say, I've finally discovered for myself the bloodline trait your heritage held so secretly & closely to their hearts" smirking devilishly while he walked towards the counter holding various chemicals from needles to test tubes. Lifting up a thick needle, filled with red liquid, he flicked the glass gently and smiled a Cheshire grin over at the young girl that sat insecurely on the bed. She rubbed her arm at the sight of the needle, and felt slightly scared from the medical utensil.

"If I sell this, Shinobi across of all countries will have a little of Hinata in them, not to mention the Hyuuga family's Kekkei Genkai" he smiled as he placed the needle back into its cabinet. "But sorrowfully, Hinata. You don't understand this information, don't you?" he cooed, leaning his frame against the marble counter top as his finger laid on top of his bottom lip, mocking Hinata's dull mind.

"No need to worry though, Hinata" he quickly retaliated from his recent foreign-pity on the young Heiress, and turned his body quickly grabbing another needle from another cabinet, and walked over to Hinata who sat now in a bored manner staring back at Orochimaru, her eyes reflecting the nothingness that roamed her mind, Orochimaru inwardly cackled at the pure adrenaline he had from simply staring into the Hyuuga's pride possession and felt the glossy surface of the needle which held chemicals which would harm the young Hyuuga into insanity.

"Be careful now, would want to hurt you" he whispered while placing the needle into the injection point underneath her chin, metal scraping against metal as the tip of the needle slicked into Hinata easily, her eyes dilated from the drugs injected into her as her hands clenched the frail paper bed in pain, the irony of his words finally hitting her like bricks as she felt the intense pain of the drug rapidly spreading through her whole, the electricity swallowing her veins as her body was rejecting the negative chemicals, she made no movement other than the muffles pants, her body claimed and stone-like.

"Orochimaru" the Nin turned his head whilst he still continued to inject the drug into Hinata's jaw and smiled feverishly while he was faced with Sasuke standing broadly in the doorway, his eyes boring into Hinata silently, the insipid expression sprawled across his face telling how he shown no interest in his once was classmate being kidnapped & tortured by his teacher.

"The roots you requested for in Suna have been delivered, they're in your study" he briskly stated, when attempted to leave, but before he could slick away into the abyss of Orochimaru's hideout, Orochimaru moved his way from his total view of Hinata, "she's lovely isn't she? I was thinking of making her into a puppet. Would you like a puppet, Sasuke?" Orochimaru pulled out the needle with a marvelous 'sleeek' from the injection and smiled weakly over at the missing-nin.

"I have no need for a puppet" Sasuke replied, "not even for personal needs?" Orochimaru inquired, mentally questioning his sexual orientation while he gently laid the now sleeping Hyuuga onto the paper bed somewhat gently. Sasuke didn't pick up this subliminal message as his response was bleak and bored, "I can handle my own personal needs" Orochimaru chuckled at his own humor, "you sure can. Tell Kabuto that Cell B-15 will need his attention soon, she's in a coma-state and will need nutrients every day. I have a plan for her" he ordered, and as soon as Sasuke left, Orochimaru followed suit, leaving the unconscious girl sprawled on the bed, her practical lifeless form breathing faintly the only sound eerily producing the halls.

He left her there for 9 months.
