Yep, its me again. thought you heard the last of me from Lillies, huh? well, I've been working on other stuff so that's why i haven't written for a while. yeah yeah, not even finished with my first story when i start writing a new one! sorry, but with school and exit exams in a few days has me doing VERY little for leisure story writing. I'll finish Demon's View once i get the ending and more supporters! anyways...lets get this started.

this IS a Naruto story and YES they all have their respective names so SADLY i can not say these characters belong to me,but to their respective only thing that belongs to me is the plot! (and Suzuki and Tongan)
this came to me out of no where and i just felt like writing something down, so most likely this is a random story, but one that ACTUALLY makes sense! lookit! I've kept you guys waiting TOO long so lets get on with the story,shall we?
please review. remember "reviews make more stories and can help authors in need so please won't you praise us?"


Blissful Dream, Terrible Reality

The shadows lengthen as a figure lays crouched in the cold corner of the stone cell. He stays like that, shivering from the fear of the Hunters and the cold that seeps through the poorly insulated room. He did not budge, he did not look up, and he did not even dare touch the stone bowl full of warm, delicious meat that was there for him even though his stomach was slowly torturing him for not being fed in several weeks. No…he does not move for anything at all, except to empty his bladder, which even then was not often considering there was nothing there to rid the body of.

Save for my blood and organs! He mentally growled.

Then a noise echoes down the desolate halls. The young prisoner does not move, but he trembles just slightly but whether from fear or cold not even HE could tell. Voices…there were voices just outside the prison cell…and this alone terrified the young man. Voices meant people, and with the only people here being his captors and torturers…

"Naruto? Naruto! Are you in there?" a young male voice calls from the other side.

The said male lifts his head just slightly at the familiar voice.

"S-Sasuke? I-is that you?" he spoke softly, his voice weak and cracking from lack of use and of the cold.

The voice gives a breath of relief. "Yeah dobe, it's me!"

Naruto gingerly uncurls himself, his bones and joints cracking from being in that form for so long. "Sasuke! It's good to see you again! I knew you'd come! Just like you promised…!" the blond crawls slowly and painfully to the bars of the cells to reach out to his teammate and rescuer.

"Of course!" Sasuke reaches out to the imprisoned teen and gently takes his hand while with the other he caresses a scarred cheek.

"Sasuke..." Naruto sighs as he relaxes into the warm, soft, strong hand…

~BANG! ~

The dreaming blond jumps as if he's been struck by something with a 1,000 jolts.

"Hey brat! You still alive?" a harsh voice rasps, rattling and banging at the bars like it was nothing.

"Hey now, Suzuki! Don't go making noises like that! What if he really IS dead and you're just only wakening and angering the souls? We'd be at the mercy of a phantom!" a quivering voice spoke, tugging on the other's arm to get his partner to stop.

The older male snorts.

"Don't be ridiculous, Tongan! There's no such thing as ghosts! Now stop being such a child and open the door!" The man known as Suzuki growled as he shoved the younger guard up against the bars.

Small hands tremble as the guard known as Tongan did as he was told and unlocked the cell door. Naruto didn't even bother to dash out of the room this time. He was too weak to stand up on his own, let alone outrun two well-fed and rested men and even if he did, they'd just only capture him again and beat him up so instead he slumped and watched with dead cobalt eyes as the younger guard slowly walked in to retrieve the bowl and gave Naruto a worried look. The prisoner could smell fear coming off of the youth known as Tongan.

What's HE scared for? Thinks I'm gonna spring up like a beast and bite him or something? Thinks I'm a ghost…feh! Pathetic! He thought as Naruto gave Tongan a look that had the young guard scared out of his wits. Heh! That'll teach him!

"He's still alive sir, but the food hasn't been touched. I think he's suspicious that it's drugged or poisoned." Tongan told his superior.

The older guard snorts and drags the younger back and slams the cell doors shut which made a loud sound. Naruto makes a face at the sound.

"That dumb brat! Well fine! If he wishes to starve to death, then let 'em!" the burly guard snatches the food bowl from Tongan and began to eat.

"Wh- what are you doing, Suzuki? That food was for the prisoner!"

"Well if he doesn't want to eat it, then I guess it means he's not hungry! Suspects it to be filled with poison or other shit like that, what a baka!"

"Well we did drug his food and water for months trying to gain information and to keep him from running away, it's only natural that he would suspect we're trying to do so again or even kill him, but still! You shouldn't tease and intimidate him like that, Suzuki!" Tongan explained and shouted at the other guard.

Suzuki smacks Tongan in the face and he staggered slightly. Naruto begins to growl and crouches on all fours, ready to pounce. Suzuki looks to the side as Naruto flew to him, wanting to rip him to shreds when it happened…

"AAUUGGHH!" the blond prisoner yowled as he was shot with white darts that coursed thousands of volts of raw electricity into his body.

The chains that had him bound began to tighten and were cold to the touch. This alone burned the Kyuubi container's skin as well as make his body temperature drop beyond normal. A cruel, harsh laugh was heard thronging throughout the cold, desolate hallways.

"See that, Tongan? This just goes to show you not ALL Leaf Shinobi are as smart as your beloved Namikaze!" He gloats as he chews.

Naruto looks at the man with disgust as he struggles. The smell of burnt skin filled the air in the cell and it made the blond shinobi sick to his stomach.

Damn! Three times they give me food, Three Times I don't eat it and THREE TIMES it turns out not to be drugged! Naruto mentally beats himself up as he looks away from the 'pig-guard' who was only eating in front of him trying to tease and intimidate him.

Suzuki smirks.

"Let's go, Tongan! Come back in 10 minutes to change his pan and water!" he belches and tossed the bowl to the young caretaker.

He dropped the bowl out of surprise and it crashed on the floor hard.

~ CRASH! ~

The sound of metal colliding with stone made both caretaker and prisoner wince as Naruto swears he could feel his ears begin to bleed.

"I'm sorry!" Tongan whispers to the blond prisoner as he picks up the bowl with shaking hands.

"TONGAN! I SAID MOVE IT! YOU CAN COME BACK TO CARE FOR HIM LATER! RIGHT NOW WE HAVE EIGHT MORE PRISONERS TO CONFIRM DEAD OR ALIVE BEFORE NIGHT FALLS SO MOVE IT!" the older guard shouts.

"Ah! Yes! I'm coming!" the dark- velvet haired guard yelled back and with a whispered, "I'm sorry! Forgive me!" to Naruto, he runs after his superior.

Cobalt eyes follow the odd pair until they disappear from view and shut lightly. Now he was alone with nothing but the cold and pain to keep him company.

Damn! It was all for nothing! The only thing I truly accomplished was just more pain and suffrage! And as for that dream of Sasuke actually coming into rescue me…that was just it! A dream! "But it felt so real!" Naruto sighed and grumbled as he tried to lift himself up off the ground and slowly yet agonizingly dragged himself to the other end of the 3 feet by 4 feet prison cell when he spied a slab of meat and cheese on a napkin tucked into a niche.

Wonder when he put that? Naruto wondered as he dragged himself to the niche and pried the delectable treasure out of its hiding place. Not caring if it was drugged or not and not even bothering to check, he savagely scarped down the meal in two bites. After eating that and drinking some of the distilled water in the container, Naruto began to feel than he had in months and was able to concentrate and think a little more clear.

Good! Now I can focus on what needs to be done! Let's see…I've been here for how long now? Does Konoha even KNOW that I'm missing or where I am? Did my messenger make it before getting captured? He shook his head to clear the dark fog that was starting to creep into his mind.

Concentrate! I gotta figure out how to contact Konoha and let them know where I am and what the hell's going on here! I gotta warn them! But…first I have to…regain my…strength…so I can…get out… his mind started to go blank as the cell room spun and the dark fog descended again.

Dammit! It WAS drugged! And the one time I trust them and not think it is! Was the last thing the blond prisoner thought before falling into a dark void…


so what do you guys think? hopefully it came out alright. I'll set to work on the next chapter when given the chance. so for now, i bid you all "Goodnight" cause I'm BEAT! -_-
