"Sasuke-kun you are wanted in Orochimaru-sama's chambers." Kabuto peered into snake-like man's new slave's room where the young teen was curled up on his circular bed reading a few scrolls that he had managed to grab without anyone noticing. "Hai." Sasuke slid the scrolls underneath his pillows before descending off the bed and drawing back the transparent cloth that surrounded it. The silver haired teen stared down at the beauty that was Sasuke. The boy had slightly feminine curves with some slight muscle tone, a heart-shaped face, and his beautiful onyx eyes that anyone could lose themselves in. But it wasn't just his figure that the older teen had his eyes roaming over, no, it was his attire. Sasuke was only wearing the 'necklace' that Orochimaru had given him three days ago and a black laced and red crested kimono. Kabuto was drawn out of his own fantasies as the raven walked right by him and into the hallway leading towards his master's chamber.

Sasuke let out an uneasy breath as he walked down the endless hallway. It seemed as though the light seemed to grow dimmer and dimmer as he grew nearer and nearer to his master's chambers. 'Sssaaasssuuukkkkeee!' A loud shriek plagued the Uchiha's mind making him clutch his head in pain and close his eyes tightly. "Sasu…Sasuke-kun? Sasuke-kun!" A hiss brought the raven out of his pained mind and he looked to find Orochimaru staring down at him with concern laced into his pale features. "Hai, Orochimaru-sama?" "What's wrong child?" The man cupped one of the young teen's pale cheeks, caressing it to give him comfort. Sasuke shivered at the other's touch, not realizing how cold his skin really felt. "I…I'm fine. Just a headache." Orochimaru nodded, already knowing what was going on with the boy. Remembering that his master had requested his service, Sasuke looked up at his master with curious eyes. "Orochimaru-sama? You requested me earlier to come to your chambers. What is it that you need?" His question seemed so innocent and curious to Orochimaru that he had to suppress a wave of lust that rushed down his spine. "Oh. Yes. Follow me Sasuke I have something to show you." Orochimaru led the child down further into the hallway till they reached a large oak door. With a loud and a bit disturbing creak the door opened to reveal a king-size bed in the middle of the room that seemed to be drenched in maroon waves. Candles flickered throughout the darkened room giving it an erriry yet romantic feeling to it. Then there was also a weird 'smell' in the air. It was thick yet sickly sweet that it made Sasuke feel like the room was spinning. Hearing the door close behind him brought him somewhat to attention before he felt his whole body spinning before he leaned up against the door and sliod his way down to the floor. His eyelids grew heavier and heavier as if they weighed a ton and soon his will to keep them open vanished into thin air and welcomed the darkness that was lurking it's way in.

'Sasuke-teme! Where are you heading off to?' 'Dobe. I'm leaving the village for awhile.' A picture of a forest that was crowed with tree's and animal life appeared out from the darkness with a spikey haired blond staring at a grief stricken Sasuke. 'Hey I told you not to call me that and why must you leave?' The blond protested with concern etched onto his face. 'I...I don't belong here, Naruto. I can't stand Konoha anymore. I can't stand the village, can't stand the hokage...I can't stand it..' The Uchiha averted his empty onyx eyes away from Naruto's azure blue one's. 'Sasuke please don't leave! Please! I know that this village is messed up and corrupt but please don't leave me behind...Sasuke...I lo-' Everything faded to black and the teary eyes of the blond named Naruto soon disappeared along with it. The Uchiha's eyes darted open with a startle from the dream. That boy...Naruto...what did he have to say to me? Was it real? Did that really happen? Sasuke was pondering over the returned memory and didn't even notice what he had woke up into.

"So I see you have awakened." A sense of deja vu washed over the boy when he heard the unmistakable voice of his master, Orochimaru descend from within the shadows. "Oro...Orochimaru-sama..? Wha-what..happened?" Sasuke questioned with a hint of fear in his voice, not knowing what had happened when he had passed out. He remembered running into Orochimaru in the hallway and being led into his room and then darkness had overcome him. "I told you I had something to show you Sasuke-kun. Now, why don't you take a look." Sasuke slowly lifted himself up to find himself on the floor surrounded by black lettering that was incripted into the floor and soon made a circle around him. Some of the lettering rided up his arms, chest, and his back. It all ended at the base of his neck and where his shoulder meet towards the back. It had three comas going in the same direction. Sasuke grew more and more nervous by the second.

"What...i-is...this mark, Orochimaru-sama?" The man chuckled at the boys reaction but he couldn't wait for the full effect to take place. Soon all thoughts cleared from the thirteen year old boys mind as pain seared through his entire being. Crying out in pain the boy writhed on the floor clutching the mark that Orochimaru must of placed on him. It felt like he was burning and his bones were breaking one by one and then molding back together to make something new. Orochimaru pulled out a scroll he had hidden in the depths of his yukata and unrolled it before placing it unfront of the boy. That's when he began to start make hand signs before placing his index finger and middle finger on the curse mark. (1)"Neko-henkei musubitsukemasu jutsu!"

With one last ear peircing scream Sasuke's world faded back into the deepest depths of the darkness.


There we go!

(1) Oh I do not know if this is the correct translation for cat-transformation melding jutsu.
