Naruto's P.O.V.
Something was wrong. It screamed out to me in the quickening of my breathing and my heartbeat. I knew that they knew I was here. By 'they', I meant the Enemy. That was their group's name; it was accurate to say the least. My body seemed to tell me something. I didn't know what that something was. It was dark, even for my eyes; they were adjusted to the dark. I kept my body from banging against the metal boxes and items that were strewn across the room. I knew this because animals, living things, were in the boxes and that the weapons, the chakra saturated weapons, were brimming with chakra. I was lucky to be in this room.
The Enemy was outside the room. Slowly, I curled myself into a ball. I made my breathing faster like the animals around me. I needed to make them think that there wasn't anything abnormal about this room. I tried not to tense as they slammed the door open and started to check the room. I was lucky that I was surrounded by the metal crates: both around me and above me. I knew there was an escape hatch in this room, but it would attract attention, unwanted attention. I swept my now dark dirty blond bangs to the side. It felt strange when I closed my eyes. To me, I just felt like someone was staring at me. One of my hopes was that no one had the byakugan. I shivered. He, him, I, me: All of them were pronouns. That was how I thought of myself. I was never 'Naruto' on missions; I was Akigitsune1 now. I opened my eyes and cleared my thoughts. Yes… blank. If they captured me, I would be interrogated and tortured, death was a given unless they had other uses for me. I shivered again. My colleagues warned me of the Enemy. If I was caught, I was a goner. The other uses, I've heard that they were gruesome. No one escaped to tell the tale, but they sent messages. Rape. Slavery. Manual labor. Sometimes a person would be inducted into all three of them.
My comrades said that I was beautiful enough so I would definitely be raped. There were high chances that they would make me a sex slave. I will NOT be caught. I just can't. My friends, my nakama2 were waiting for me.
They left.
I used a bit of fox magic to turn me into a small, dirty-gold-colored fox. I could see where everything was. I leaped down to the cement floor and lifted the trap door up. It was now or never. I jumped into the darkness. The trap door closed with a thump. Kitsunebi! Fox Fire! Suddenly, the tunnel was lit and I could see everything. Everything was made of stone and it was freezing. I ran and ran till I found the exit. I wiggled through the metal bars and scurried into the bushes. My mission was complete. I secured the perimeter and placed bombs and paper tags everywhere I could. I shook myself. I decided to shunshin far away before I detonated the bombs. I was in a relatively safe place. Yes, it would do.
