I am soooooooooooo sorry. I keep rewriting my stuff.

I do NOT own Naruto, Masashi Kishimoto does.

It was rumored that at the top of the building lived a monster, one locked up to never be seen. No one had ever seen it, heard it, nor even had evidence that it actually lived there. The only living proof was a large metal door locked with two locks and the faint and ghostly sound of desperate pleading, "... Please, save me."

Silently Lost

Confrontation

.

.

Sasuke hated people; that's all there was to it. People were selfish, annoying, backstabbing.

Liars.

It was no surprise when the newly recruited employees started spreading rumors about the 58th floor, the empty floor. He wasn't sure who started the rumor or how it was even made. After all, there was nothing in there, and it was none of their business. There was no need to make such a fuss.

Gaining new employees were always the worst days to him. Constant whispering and false rumors echoed through the office.

"Hey, did you hear? They said a monster lives on the 58th floor!"

"Isn't that right above the president's office?"

"How awful!"

Sasuke growled. There was nothing on the top floor; no ghost, no monster, nothing. The only thing they might find up there would be dust layered upon more dust. His mother would occasionally walk up there to inspect the place. Personally, he did not think that job was fit for his mother. She was better than an inspection woman.

He stared out from the wall sized window behind him. Being so high up, everyone who walked by the building looked like ants. The sky was blue and there were no clouds in sight. It was what one would call " a lovely day."

But it did not feel like such a day to the raven haired man. He felt constantly on edge, like something was going to happen today. But nothing ever did. Nothing ever changed his normal daily routine.

He made sure of that.

Later that day, Naruto came to the office, saying that he wanted to "talk" about his life problems. He was to be married to Hinata, his fiance, in about a month- give or take a few days. Occasionally, Sasuke would let him rant about how much he hated planning his wedding, saying it was too much work.

The blond flashed his killer smile. "Damn, aren't you just lucky. You have a freakin' harem in your office. I envy you, you sick bastard."

"They're your's."

The blond laughed. "But I have Hinata!" He sighed dreamily and placed a hand on his cheek. "Lately, Hinata doesn't want me to help with the wedding planning and it's starting to make me worry. Damn, she such a perfectionist. Despite being quite shy, Hinata is quite fixated on getting the things that she wants- but hey, that's what makes her so damn irresistible."

"Then go home and help her." He meant it as go home and help your fucking fiance.

Two women walked by and giggled, looking into the office and smiling at the two men. The blond smiled and waved at them. After they had left, the blond screamed in frustration, trying to pull out his hair.

"You'll go bald." Sasuke bluntly said.

He looked straight into Sasuke's eyes and slammed his hands on his desk. Sasuke looked up impassively, returning the blond's gaze. "Sasuke, I'm having an internal conflict inside me right now. I love Hinata- she's amazing, but I realized that I love all women! They're all just so alluring and curvy- but Hinata's a goddess, but that's besides the point!" He sighed again and slumped his upper body over the desk. "I'm so conflicted!"

"Idiot, it's either live or die." The dying part was referring to Neji kicking Naruto's sorry ass.

He smiled nervously. "Yeah... I'd rather live..." The blond flushed and gazed at the wall. "Hinata smells nice... Like fruits... it's alluring."

"Pervert."

"Yeah..." The blond sighed again and dragged his index finger in circles on the desk. "I feel so lucky."

"Then don't die." The raven haired man replied.

Naruto huffed. "Well aren't you concise today. What's wrong, cat got your tongue? Aha! That was funny." He laughed and slapped his knee as if he had just made the best retort ever.

"It's not funny."

He smiled. "It is because you have a cat."

The stared at the blond, utterly confused by his strange statement. "I don't have a cat."

Confused, the blond tilted his head to the side a couple times, closing his eyes, and scratched his head. After going through his thoughts, he leaned over the desk and pointed to the ground on the right of Sasuke and questioned, "Then what's this cute bundle of fur doing next to you?"

Sasuke darted his gaze to the tile floor and found a bundle of white curled up right next to him. As if sensing his sudden interest, the feline returned Sasuke's gaze with its big, round emerald eyes. Its eyes stood out from its white and speckled chocolate brown fur. He noticed that a green ribbon was strung around its neck with a small silver bell latched on the ribbon.

There was a bell; how had he not noticed the cat coming in?

Still confused, he picked up the small animal, observing the lithe feline. Taking a closer look at the bell, there was no clapper or device inside to make a ringing noise. That's why he didn't hear it.

"Strange." He muttered.

The cat responded by meowing, displaying its array of tiny acute teeth, all pearly and white. Naruto snatched up the cat into his arms and cooed. "Where's your owner?"

This was no random cat. Seeing as it was marked with ownership, with the clean teeth and ribbon, Sasuke continued to ponder how the cat had gotten in in the first place. This was the 57th floor for crying out loud. It couldn't have just walk into the building without anyone noticing.

As if sensing his confusion, it looked straight at him; its deep emerald eyes pulling him in, trying to tell him something- but that was impossible. A cat couldn't tell him shit, not even as smart as it was.

Sensing his doubt, it jumped out of Naruto's arms and crossed over the tiles silently and toward the door. As if trying to coax him to follow it, it waved it's long tail back and forth, calling Sasuke forward.

Naruto caught on. "Let's go."

And so they did. It made its way through the crowd of employees, occasionally meowing at them. The women "aw"-ed at the feline and tried to touch the cat, but it moved around them and continued toward its destination.

Naruto laughed "What a cute cat."

Sasuke frowned, looking at the feline. "Yeah. Cute."

The cat's ears perked and it dashed behind Sasuke, hiding from something that was supposedly approaching.

Three men in white protective suits walked by, bug pray in their hands. Once a month, they would come and spray the building to keep it pest free. They seemed quite shady though; it was just a hunch, but in his gut he knew they weren't just pest cleaners.

"Hello Sasuke-san." They bowed and greeted him as they walked by. Sasuke bowed and reponded. "Hello."

When they were out of eye's view, the cat walked out from behind Sasuke and continued forward. He was confused as to why the cat would hide. It wasn't like they sprayed cats that got in the building.

Brushing that aside, he continued to follow the cat until it reached the elevator. It meowed for Sasuke to hit the button to open the door.

"What a smart cat." Naruto said, amazed by its intuition. "Man can I have-"

The cats ears perked again and on cue a woman came yelling, "NARUTO! GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!"

"Oh shit!" Naruto rushed out the elevator to escape, but the woman grabbed a fist of his collar. Knowing he could not struggle, he laughed nervously and looked up cautiously at the woman. "H-Hey Ino... W-What's up?"

She slapped him. "Don't 'what's up' me! Get back to your house and help your sweet wife-to-be plan the wedding! We're leaving!" She turned to Sasuke and smiled. " Have a nice day with your cute cat Sasuke."

"It's not my-" He started, but she turned around and dragged Naruto away. He looked down at the cat; it looked back at him. "You could have warned him you know..." The cat meowed and looked like it was smiling. Sasuke smirked. "Yeah, he deserved it."

The cat leaned up on the wall and pressed a floor button. He wasn't sure which button it was until the cat sat back down again.

The 58th button was lit yellow.

He looked down at the cat and asked, "Why do you want to go there? It's not like you can even get in."

It meowed again and flicked its tail. What a weird cat.

The elevator moved upward, and they reached the 58th floor. The doors opened followed by a faint ding of the elevator.

They were greeted with silence and darkness. The cat stepped out of the elevator and into the shadows. Sasuke followed the animal, but found it quite difficult to follow something he couldn't really see. As if knowing that, It would meow frequently, guiding him in the darkness. It continued to meow in one place until he reached a certain spot and pawed at Sasuke's leg.

He reached down and it handed him a key from its mouth. Realizing what to do next, he walked toward the door and fumbled to get the key into the lock. When the lock was unlocked, the cat handed him one more key and he fumbled yet again to find the hole.

When all was done, he turned the knob and opened the door.

Light hit him.

Confused and blinded by the sudden light, he squinted and tried to adjust his eyes to the brightness. The next sight confused him even more.

Behind the door was a living room. He could glimpse a room which looked like the kitchen and another hallway.

The cat walked in and tried to usher him in as well.

Hesitantly, he took the first step in. The wooden planks creaked beneath him as he followed the cat. The place was eerily quite and the uneasy feeling he had earlier that day came back.

The cat guided him to a room that looked like a normal bedroom.

He walked in and saw the cat dash to the side. Confused yet again he followed it, but before he could he was slammed to the ground. He winced has his head his the hard wooden floor.

Eyes half closed, he opened his eyes to see what had just happened. And that was when he felt it.

A cold, sharp blade was touching his neck. The heavy weight above him was a fuzzy shape. He was not able to make out who was above him from the pain on his head.

He heard a voice ask, "Who are you."

When his vision came to, he could make out the color... pink? Blinking again, he raised a brow when he saw his attacker.

A slender pastel pink haired woman.

"Answer me now." She growled.

Today, was definitely not a good day.

Okay, I have rewritten this story about 37 times and I think I am finally satisfied. Yes it was a somewhat short chapter but it's just the starting chapter. I promise to write more when I have time.

A review on what you liked and what you didn't would be much appreciated. Thank you!
