Bone Dry

Chapter 1

Bone Decision

Kimimaru walked away from his fourth victim. He hadn't even used his backbone. He laughed. "Weak." And left his nearly dead victim to die. Pleased with himself.

"Ah. Kimimaru-san. You got the job done fast." said Kabuto.

"Whatever. Tell Orochimaru I'm finished." Kimimaru snarled.

'Well about that..." Kabuto started.

Kimimaru turned around. "Yes? Kabuto?" Kimimaru asked.

"Uchiha, Sasuke killed him four hours ago." replied Kabuto.

"Where is he?" Kimimaru asked.

Kabuto sighed. "Unknown, Kimimaru." He replied. Kimimaru growled and headed away from Kabuto. "Get me my medication, then the whereabouts of Uchiha, Sasuke" he snarled. "Y-yes sir" Kabuto said. He ran off. Kimimaru went to his bunker.

"What was that Uchiha thinking?! Killing my master!" Kimimaru yelled to himself.

He sat down on his cot. He could smell his master's blood. It only lingered in the air. He smirked. "I guess this means I'm Orochimaru's replacement." He laughed.

"Kimimaru," Kabuto said as he walked in the room. "I have your medication."

Kimimaru turned his attention away from his thoughts and nodded to Kabuto. "What about the Uchiha?" he asked. Kabuto swallowed hard. "The outskirts of the Leaf Village" Kabuto replied. "Sir." Kimimaru snarled. "Where on the outskirts?" Kimimaru asked.

"Near the gates" Kabuto replied.

"Is he with anyone?" Kimimaru asked.

"Yes..." Kabuto replied.

"Who?" He asked.

"A Haruno, Sakura" Kabuto replied moving closer to the door.

Kimimaru turned away from him. Kabuto let out a sigh of relief. "Get ready Kabuto. We're going to pay them a visit." Kimimaru said as he took his medication. "We leave tomorrow morning." Kabuto nodded and ran off.

"Hurry it up!" Kimimaru yelled.

He laid down on his cot. "Why?" he wondered. "Why Orochimaru-sensei? Why not Kabuto?" "Hey I heard that" Kabuto yelled. Kimimaru sighed. He wanted to kill Kabuto badly but he knew it would be against his dead master's will. "Sakura Haruno? Why is that familiar?" Kimimaru asked himself.

"Get up Kimimaru!" Kimimaru herd someone yell. He didn't move. "Kimimaru! You have a mission!"

Kimimaru jumped up. "Get out of my face!" he yelled. The man stammered back. Kimimaru's arm bones where out and ready to destroy the next person that yelled in his ear. "Settle down Kimimaru." Kabuto said. "Your heart can't take that much."

Kimimaru growled. "Yes, your right. Sorry Kabuto-san." Kabuto sighed. "Hurry up Orochimaru-san would be upset if he where alive. You have to find that Uchiha." Kabuto said.

"How long was I out?" Kimimaru asked.

"Eight hours." replied Kabuto.

"Ah." said Kimimaru.

Two hours later

"Kabuto! We're lost!" yelled Kimimaru.

"No we're not!" Kabuto yelled back.

"You're holding the map upside down!" Kimimaru yelled at him.

Kabuto looked at the map. "Umm yeah..." he said. Kimimaru sighed. "We have to walk an extra 48 miles because of you!" Kimimaru yelled.

"I'm sorry!" yelled Kabuto.

Kimimaru grinned. "It's been awhile since I've killed someone." Kimimaru laughed.

"Orochimaru-sama wouldn't want you to do this Kimimaru!" yelled Kabuto.

Kimimaru removed his bone and got in his stance. "Let's hustle, Kabuto." Kabuto looked at him. "No!! I'm not dancing!" he yelled. "You don't have a choice." said Kimimaru.

"No!!" Kabuto yelled.

"Sakura did you hear anything?" asked Sasuke.

"No." replied Sakura.

"Alright." said Sasuke.

"Kabuto next time we don't follow your directions. I'm tired." said Kimimaru.

They where eight miles from the outskirts of the Leaf village. Kimimaru sighed. He was tired of walking. "Kabuto" Kimimaru mumbled.

Three hours later...

Kimimaru saw Sasuke and Sakura in the distance. He laughed. He saw Sasuke jump up and yell to Sakura, "Get out of here Sakura! Run!" Kimimaru appeared in front of Sasuke just as Sakura disappeared. "Kimimaru." Kimimaru laughed. "Know, know Sasuke. I'm just here to kill you." He said calmly. Sasuke drew his sword. As did Kimimaru.

"Still using that outdated sword?" Sasuke asked.

"Yes." replied Kimimaru.

The battle began soon to end... Sakura would have no clue what had become of her loved one...
