.:Singing Age Gate :.
-x-
"You cannot pass~"
"You can-not paaaaass~"
The harmony of disembodied voices was originating from . . . an open door.
Not whatever was inside the door. Thedoor was singing at him.
Itachi blinked once. Twice.
He tried to step through again, like an insect attempting to fly through a glass window.
As expected, blast of air and sound repelled him once again.
"You moronic teeeeen
It can be seeeeen
That you're much too ooooooold
To cross this threshooooooold~"
Ah. Itachi stepped back and narrowed his eyes at the offending door. That made some twisted sort of sense, disturbing as it was. Orochimaru would not allow a powerful enemy such as Itachi himself to enter his domain so easily. Power comes with experience, and experience comes with age. An evil genius such as Orochimaru would have known that, and set up this . . . singing door . . . in order to deter enemies with experience.
(In actual fact, Itachi was trying to dissuade himself from the notion that Orochimaru could very simply be a paedophile – for the sake of his sanity, Itachi hoped fervently that Sasuke was being trained in ninja arts and nothing . . . else.)
Itachi sighed as the door kept singing at him. He would find another way into Orochimaru's hideout in order to check on Sasuke.
Frankly, though he was loath to admit it, this door creeped the shit out of him.
# Author's Note: This is what would happen if random generators ruled the universe of Fanfiction - or at least the collective hive-mind of its authors and lurkers. Complete crack that won't make any sense at all. Each chapter title is randomly generated by an "Anime Title Generator" on the site Seventh Sanctum dot com, and I then proceed to spew the first thing that comes to mind onto the keyboard, which is automatically sorted into legible writing by tiny space aliens that live in my fingernails. So . . . Yeah. Absolutely nothing is guaranteed, but the consistency of being inconsistent. And oxymoronic. Enjoy. :D
