One review so far, that's very disappointing. I'm really upset but thank you Kirri Kitty for your review and yes, it's kind of an AU.
Let's go on to the next chapter
Prison Break, chapter II:
Cell B86, Naruto and Sasuke's cell…
Sector A was quiet; after all, 2am is pretty late, even for inmates. Everyone was sound asleep, some where loudly snoring or loudly dream about well, women. The only one that was wide awake was Uzumaki Naruto, lying in his bed thinking about the whole crazy situation.
'Sasuke…well, he's the kind of guys to go to jail, but Shikamaru… and NEJI? Something must be up. Those two can't end up here, not to mention the crimes they've done' Naruto thought as he rolled to his right side, closing his eyes.
'I wonder what Kiba did. Lee? I don't get it…what in the world has he done to get in here? He was the perfect student.' Naruto sighed and sat up, sliding his legs off the bed. He got up and slid his hands in his pockets, taking a couple of steps before stopping at the cell door, resting his hands on the bars.
It was quiet, too quiet. Naruto didn't get used to living in such silence. His life was noisy, energetic, wild, and obstreperous. Sometimes, during his childhood and a part of his youth was too
'…lonely' he thought, smiling to himself. He remembered his life before taking this wrong turn. How he always used to think life is good, despite his terrible childhood. How he had a lot of friends and people who loved him and admired him…and had a small crush on him. He smiled as Hinata's face popped in his head, his grip tightened around the cold metallic bar of the cell door.
'I wonder how she's doing; it's been a very long time. I hope she's alright' he thought, pushing himself off the door. Naruto sighed and walked back to his bunk, covering himself from head to toe and slowly falling asleep.
A couple of hours later…
Naruto woke up at the sound of someone banging a stick against one of the cell doors, unfortunately, it was his.
"Hey, Uzumaki, Uchiha, Get your lazy asses out of that bed NOW. We're doing inspection around the building for anything unusual." The blue haired policeman said, walking to the next cell and waking the others up.
Sasuke groaned and got up, pulling the covers off and pushing it to the end of the bed with his feet, turning to the side and jumping down, almost hitting Naruto who was sitting, half asleep.
"Hey, watch it!" he yelled, making Sasuke smirk and walk towards the sink inside the cell, turning on the faucet. Naruto thought about the whole situation that left him wide awake the pervious night, ignoring the sounds made by Sasuke's toothbrush. Sasuke spat in the sink and put his hands under the running water.
"You look disturbed." Sasuke said, looking at his friend with the corner of his eye. Naruto shook his head.
"Nah, it's just that I'm very fond of the new alarm clock" he said, mocking the blue haired guy out there. Sasuke laughed.
"Yeah, you'll get used to it. He woke us up in a normal way this time. On his last shift, he woke us up by turning on the fire alarm, Man. that was freakin' awesome." Sasuke said, splashing his face with a bit of water. Naruto laughed at his friends last statement as he watched him turn the faucet off and moving away, giving him the chance to freshen up as well.
In a matter of minutes, everyone was assembled outside their cells for their checkup. Naruto was looking around, everyone looked familiar to him somehow, and one guy was freaking him out. He leaned a bit to the right where Sasuke was.
"Hey..." he whispered, making the dark haired glare at him, "…what's the deal with him?" he asked, looking at Deidara who was glaring at him. "I told you already, I don't have a freakin' Idea" he said, leaning away from his friend as the policeman looked at them patronizingly and checked inside their cells, making Sasuke and Naruto almost wanting to kill him.
A few minutes later…
"Only a few minutes left…" Sasuke said, looking at the big clock hanging from ceiling of the big hall. Naruto, who was sitting on the bed, turned his head towards the clock; the seconds' pointer seemed to move a bit slowly, almost as if it was mocking both Naruto and Sasuke.
"What's in a few minutes?" Naruto asked, looking at his friend who was laughing, "Lunch Time!" he exclaimed, running his fingers through his hair. The blonde smirked; he has never seen Sasuke laugh, not to mention joke around before. 'I guess prison teaches ya lots of stuff' he thought, getting up. As soon as he did, the doors opened. Sasuke grinned.
"Alright, time to eat" he said, walking out. Naruto shook his head, "Why would anyone be happy in a place like this?" he asked, putting his hands inside his pockets. Sasuke looked at him and smiled, "I don't know, I just am" he said, walking down the stairs of their sector when a policeman stood in front of the two.
"Uzumaki Naruto, You have a visitor" he said, getting a handcuff off of his belt. Naruto looked at Sasuke quizzically. Sasuke nodded as an agreement, making Naruto nod back and extend his hands to the police officer. He placed the handcuffs and pulled Naruto with him.
Meeting room…
Naruto walked through the narrow corridor and towards a big room, a couple of metallic rectangle tables sit in different sides of the room. Naruto could see one of the inmates hug who seemed to be his girlfriend. Another was meeting with an old woman, supposedly his mother. He smiled as he was nudged by the police officer in charge.
"That's your visitor." He said, pointing at a man in a grey suit and hat. Naruto felt a bad vibe from him at once, narrowing his eyes and walking slowly towards the well-suited man.
"Sit down, Uzumaki Naruto." the man said, his shallow voice giving Naruto a shiver down his spine. He nodded and sat down, trying to figure out who that man was.
"How do you know my name?" he said, resting his hands on his lap. The man slowly reached for his hat and took it off, revealing his hair and face. Naruto gasped as he knew who that was.
"You…" he said, looking at the grey-haired man. He reached for his glasses and adjusted them. "…You're Orochimaru's follower…" he said, gulping.
"…Yakushi Kabuto"
Time almost stopped for Naruto, seeing the face of the man who tried to kill Tsunade-sama, who tried to kill everyone along with his snake master. Kabuto chuckled.
"I see you remember me, Naruto-kun" he said, smirking slyly. Naruto gritted his teeth as he breathed heavily.
"Don't address me with that, you hear?" he said, angrily. "What do you want from me?" Naruto said, tightening his fists. Kabuto laughed and glared at Naruto.
"You'll listen to me and you'll listen carefully…" he said, narrowing his eye. Suddenly, Naruto gasped and literally froze in his place. He tried to move his head but he couldn't. His fingers, his hands, his feet…nothing was moving. Naruto moved his vision from his hands to the grey haired man.
"What did you do to me?" Naruto slowly asked, making Kabuto smirk. "Nothing really, but…" he said, leaning on the table, "…if you make a fuss, I'll kill you" he threatened, making Naruto gulp. "But you'll shut up and be a good dog so listen up." He said, making Naruto grit his teeth and narrow his eyes. Kabuto smiled and tapped his finger on the table.
"I'm the only follower for Orochimaru-sama left with him…" he started, smiling and glaring at Naruto, "…and he's now looking for someone to help him with his experiments and-"
"-Cut to the chase, Yakushi" Naruto said, angrily. If he hadn't been paralyzed like he was, he would've pounded him to death. Kabuto chuckled at Naruto's impatience.
"Now, Now…" he started, leaning back. "…Didn't I tell you to be quiet?" he said, in a threatening tone. Naruto remained silent and still. Kabuto continued.
"As I was saying, Orochimaru-sama is looking for someone to help him with his experiments and to train along with both of us, to become Orochimaru-sama's follower." He said, adjusting his glasses. Naruto glared at him, wishing his body is free from whatever's holding him down.
"What's your point?" Naruto asked, looking at the guards then back at Kabuto. The latter smirked.
"He has chosen one of the countries to take as many people as he likes from it to become his projects…" he said. Kabuto pulled a brown folder out of a small briefcase that was on the ground. "Do you want to know what that country is? No worries…" he said, slowly opening the brown folder. "…he wasn't very pleased with the 'one country choice' so he chose two countries, two different villages" he said, pulling out a bunch of papers out of the briefcase and putting them face down on the table.
"Two countries, fire and wind…" he started, taking one of the papers and flipping it to show the geography of the countries, the two mentioned were highlighted in black. Naruto's eyes widened, 'fire and wind…don't tell me…is that why he's meeting me?' he thought as Kabuto pulled another paper.
"Two villages, Sunagakure and Konohagakure" he said, flipping the second paper on the table, revealing the geography of both villages. Naruto gritted his teeth.
"You bastard!" he said, angrily. Kabuto chuckled and waved his index finger in Naruto's face.
"That's not it…" he said, taking another paper and flipping it on the table. "Those are the candidates who were chosen by Orochimaru-sama from Sunagakure. He liked their abilities and structure." He said, pointing at the paper. Naruto was shocked, on the paper was the pictures of people he knew very well, people who have helped them during one of the battles by a group of missing-nins.
Kabuto smirked and pointed at the first picture, a picture of a man dressed in dark clothes, cat like hat and purple painted face. "…Kankurou …" he said, pointing at the second picture of a blonde young woman with four bushy pigtails and a black kimono with red obi. "…and his sister, Temari from Sunagakure" he said, grinning. Naruto gritted his teeth, feeling patronized by whatever that's holding him down.
"About Konohagakure…" he said, putting another paper with different pictures of certain people Naruto knew.
"…I think you know all of them, don't you?" he said, pointing at the people in the pictures. Kabuto smirked, seeing Naruto's shocked expression.
'No way, he can't do this…' Naruto thought as he saw the pictures of Chouji, Hinata, Ino, Sakura, Tenten and Shino.
Kabuto smirked, "Oh yeah, I remember…" he said, pulling another file from his bag. "…There's a couple of special members in another country I wanted Orochimaru-sama to check…" he said, opening the file and pulling a couple of pictures, "You might not know them, so I don't know if you're going to worry about them as well, but they could be quite useful…" he said, flipping the two papers to reveal five pictures of different people, he pointed at each of them as he said their names.
"Kuchiki Rukia, Orihime Inoue, Ishida Uryuu, Abarai Renji and Yasutora " Chad" Sado" he said, smirking. "Those guys, from a place called Soul Society, have a couple of special abilities I'd like Orochimaru to notice. He might give up the group of the pathetic people you care about" he said, mentioning his friends. Kabuto slowly got up, collected the documents, placed them in the files and put them in his bag, giving Naruto one last glare.
"I guess you have less than a year to save your friends, otherwise, Orochimaru-sama will be so pleased…" He said, faking a gasp, "Oh, I forgot, You won't be getting out of here for a long, long time" he said, laughing and holding the briefcase with his left hand as he picked up the hat with his right off the table and placed it on his head, "ten years is a pretty long time for Orochimaru-sama to do whatever he wants" he laughed and walked off. Naruto, still paralyzed by whatever Kabuto did, forced his muscles to break free and run at him.
"I'll kill you, you bastard!" Naruto yelled, sending a punch at Kabuto straight in his face. The latter fell to the ground before policemen managed to get a grip on Naruto. Kabuto got up and wiped the blood away of the side of his mouth. "Hmm... see you around, Naruto-kun" he said, walking off. His back was the last thing Naruto have seen before he blacked out.
A couple of hours later…
"Wake up…" a faint voice said. Naruto slowly opened his eyes but everything was blurry to him, "C'mon, wake up…" the voice said again. He blinked a couple of times before seeing the bottom of Sasuke's bunk. "Hey, you're finally awake! You've been out for a couple of hours now" Sasuke said, smiling at his friend. Naruto's eyes widened and got up quickly, unfortunately, hitting his head with the top bunk.
"OUCH! SHIT!" he yelled, rubbing his forehead. Sasuke shook his head and raised two fingers.
"How many fingers am I holding up?" he asked, jokingly. Naruto glared at him and slapped his hand away, getting up. Sasuke shook his head and looked at his friend.
Naruto, still rubbing his forehead, walked towards the cell door, resting his, already bruised, forehead against the cold metal for a while. He looked at his hand and concentrated hard enough to form Rasengan but it didn't work.
"What the…" he said, concentrating hard again. Sasuke was leaning on the wall, watching his friend struggle with a bigger amount of concentration with his famous technique.
"That won't work either." He said, crossing his arms and looking out of the cell. Naruto looked quizzically at him, making Sasuke smirk.
The dark-haired stood next to his cell mate, leaning on the metal cell door, and looked at the other inmates. "You didn't figure that out in the couple of days you spent here?" Sasuke started, closing his eyes. "Well, if you hadn't noticed, everyone in here has some sort of special ability. It's rare to find someone who can't control Chakura in here" he said, opening his eyes and looking at his friend.
"Why do you think we were taken to the rock village, out of all the villages?" Sasuke asked with a dark look on his face. Naruto looked at the ground and shook his head, he never figured out why he was taken where the others were taken.
"The Rock village built this facility to hold prisoners with special ability, these walls…" he said, slamming his fist against the wall. "…are made of special material taken from underground, beneath this village." he said, smirking at his friend. Naruto was a bit lost, "Special…material…from…underground?" he repeated, rubbing the back of his head in frustration.
Sasuke nodded, "Yes, These walls are composed of special chemicals and Chakura-mixed compositions that compresses the person's Chakura and prevents it from being released or taking form" he said, chuckling, Leaning off the door.
"I wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for these damn things" Sasuke said, tightening his fists. Naruto grimaced.
'Is he trying to say there's no hope of going out in time to save them?' Naruto narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth. He wasn't going to sit around doing nothing while his friends and other innocent people get hurt.
"So, Even your Sharingan won't work?" he said, looking at Sasuke who was in some sort of trance. He shook his head.
"Sometimes, but it has no effect here..." He said, looking at his friend. "Not even Neji's Byakugan" he said, looking at his friend's cell on the bottom floor. Naruto nodded with a disappointment look on his face.
The blonde's expression changed into a quizzical one, "Wait a minute, how did you know all of this?" Sasuke looked at his friend and laughed, "Once you spend a long time here you start to learn things you never thought you'd learn" he said, laughing.
A growl was heard, making Naruto's face turn red, holding his stomach. Sasuke continued with his laughter.
"You haven't eaten yet, have you?" he asked, chuckling. Naruto shook his head. "Nope, I haven't" he said, rubbing his stomach. Sasuke laughed as the cell door opened. It was break time.
"C'mon buddy, I think I can get ya something to eat while you're at it"
Outside 'A' sector: The yard
The guys were sitting in one of the stands. Naruto, sitting on the 2nd row of the stand was munching on a piece of bread and a chicken leg with hunger, not taking a breath between every bite while Sasuke, Neji and Shikamaru, who were sitting behind him, were amusingly watching.
"Wow, His eating habits have never changed, have they?" Neji asked, turning his vision to Sasuke who was shaking his head.
"Nope, Not at all" He said, laughing. In a matter of seconds, Naruto was done. Sasuke patted him on the back.
"Take a breath, buddy!" he laughed, making Naruto glare at him. Neji looked at the sky and sighed, Shikamaru looked at him.
"What's wrong with ya?" he asked, pushing his friend lightly on his arm. Neji shook his head and intertwined his fingers, leaning forward on his knees.
"Nothing, It's just…It's been a long time since I've seen my family…and Tenten and everyone else." He said, smiling sadly. Neji was sentenced to do 20 and already spent 3. At the sound of Neji's words, Naruto remembered:
"He has chosen one of the countries to take as many people as he like from it to become his projects…" he said. Kabuto pulled a brown folder out of a small briefcase that was on the ground.
'No way, he can't do this…' Naruto thought as he saw the pictures of Chouji, Hinata, Ino, Sakura, Tenten and Shino
He stood up, making the others look at him. He sighed heavily, "Guys, there's something I have to tell you."
A couple of minutes later, Naruto explained everything. Neji's purple pupil-less eyes were widened at him while Shikamaru crossed his arms. Sasuke was shaking his head in disbelief.
"Are you sure he wasn't lying?" Sasuke asked, angrily. Naruto slowly nodded, turning his head to the other side.
"Damn it." Neji said, kicking the grass in frustration while Shikamaru stood silent before speaking up.
"Who else was on Orochimaru's list, Other than Konoha Ninjas?" Shikamaru asked, crossing his arms. Naruto knotted his eyebrows and closed his eyes.
"Sunagakure Ninjas, Kankurou and Temari" he said, tightening his fists. Shikamaru's eyes widened, 'Temari…' he thought as his own fists were closed so tight his knuckles were turning white. Neji was taking deep breaths while Sasuke was still in a shock.
Naruto looked around before recalling the other guys Kabuto spoke about. "Oh yeah, he spoke about a couple of people…" he said, closing his eyes and concentrated, "…I can't recall their names but I think there was someone called, um…Rakia, Riko or something like…"
"Rukia? Kuchiki Rukia?"
"Yeah, that's the full name!" he said, nodding. He then realized that none of the guys with him said the person's name. Naruto turned around; the others looked behind his back to see the orange haired guy. He remembered Sasuke telling him about that guy and he remembered the cafeteria chat with him.
"Kurosaki…Ichigo!" Naruto mumbled, noticing that the guy looked a bit nervous around them. He cleared his throat.
"I was passing by and I couldn't help but to hear your conversation. What's wrong with Rukia? Did you hear something about her?" he asked, apparently worried. Naruto and the other shared looks before looking back at Ichigo who was still waiting for an answer.
"We believe that she and other people might be in danger" Naruto bluntly said, forcing Ichigo to look down and tighten his fists. "Why? How? Who's that person and what do they want with them?" he said, yelling at Naruto who was looking away.
"He wants to recruit them to be his subordinates…" Naruto said, looking at his friends, "…he's chosen…" he said, remembering the girl's name. "Uh…Rukia and others from a place called, uh…" He said, rubbing the back of his head. "…Soul society, I believe" Naruto said, looking down.
"There's nothing we can do, is there?" Ichigo asked, anxiously. Naruto closed his eyes and shook his head. Ichigo placed a hand on his waist and covered his mouth with the other in anger, turning around.
"Shit…" he said, moving his hand from his mouth and through his bleached hair. Naruto and the others were having the same thoughts as he was.
"There has to be something we can do" Neji said, interlocking his fingers and moved his hands to the back of his neck, leaning his head backwards. Sasuke turned to tell him something when the bell rang, notifying the inmates that it's time to go back to their cells.
"Uzumaki…" Ichigo started, taking a step closer. "We MUST do something…" he said, narrowing his eyes. Naruto smirked.
"I know that, but what're we going to do?" he said, looking at the guys around him. They all shook their heads, not knowing what to do.
"Whatcha planning, losers?" someone said, making them turn around. Naruto narrowed his eyes.
"Kiba…" he mumbled, looking at the dog-trainer. Kiba snickered. "What? Can't an old friend say hello?" He said, smirking. Sasuke took a step forward.
"Is there something you want, Inuzuka?" he growled, making Kiba raise his eyebrows.
"Whoa, calm down, boy. I ain't gonna hurt no body" he said, raising his hands in defense. "I just came by to say hi…" he said, looking at Ichigo from head to toe. "I see you've already had a girlfriend here, Uzumaki" he said, laughing before walking off. Naruto balled his fists, taking a step forward towards Kiba when a hand on his shoulder stopped him.
"Naruto, Don't." Shikamaru said, shaking his head. Naruto nodded and sighed, relaxing his muscles.
Neji, watching the whole situation calmly, crossed his arms and looked at the ground. Everyone was in danger. He was worried about his cousin, no, he feared the worst. What if they hurt her? Killed her? Will he be responsible for not protecting his cousin, not only her, but Sakura, Ino and…
'Tenten' he thought, sighing heavily. Why was he worrying? Everyone knew that Tenten was able to take care of her self, not to mention protecting Konoha; after all, she was the weaponry princess. He has been thinking about her much lately. Neji thought that it would be something related to what he did to her before he was caught.
Flashback, a couple of years ago…
"No, no, I'm telling you that I already paid for that!" Neji yelled at the telephone speaker, his voice echoing across the lonely cold apartment in southern Konoha, loosening his dark red tie a bit and unbuttoning the top button. He moved his hand to the back of his head and loosened the knot of the black forehead band, taking it off to reveal his tattooed forehead
"I don't care what's wrong with it, a deal is a deal, GOT IT!?" he said, slamming the phone on the table, hanging up. A knock on the door was heard. Neji got up off his chair and moved from behind his desk, placing the deal papers in the middle desk drawer and locked it, putting the small key in his pocket. The knocking continued.
"Coming…" he said, "...Damn it. Can you stop knocking for one second?" he yelled, walking towards the door before jerking it open. There stood a very startled Tenten, a tray covered with a silver cover in her hands and looking pretty good in a silvery-blue short-sleeved, knee length dress; her hair was in a bun. Tenten blinked a couple of times before looking at the ground and turning her head to the side.
"I'm sorry…I-I'll come over some other time" she said, turning around but only to be held by her arm.
"Wait…" he said, looking at the ground before moving his vision to her. "…I'm sorry; I have a lot of things on my mind." He said, chuckling. "Please, Tenten, Come in" he said, giving her the space to get in. Tenten slowly turned around and nodded.
She slowly walked inside; chills went up and down her spine as soon as she took more steps inside the apartment "Oh, I made you some blueberry muffins. I know you like them" she said, laughing. He nodded and thanked her. Tenten looked around as she walked slowly by him.
"You're not going to do anything with the decoration, are you?" she asked, looking at the plain grey walls and dark blue carpet as soon as she entered the living room. Neji chuckled and watched Tenten as she walked towards the kitchen counter and placed the tray on the table, the hem of her dress moving along to the sides. Neji loved how Tenten looked in a dress, 'a sight you never get to see' he thought as she turned around and leaned on the kitchen counter with a smile on her face, waiting for his answer.
"You know me, Tenten. Decoration is not my thing" he said, walking towards one of the couch and slumped down on it, looking up at her as she stood in front of him.
"Really?" she said, resting her hands on her waist. "You never told me what your "Thing" was" she said, making quotation marks with her fingers. He raised his left eyebrow at her. "C'mon, Tenten, You know me for like, what, three years now and you don't know my type of things?" he asked, spreading his arms on the back of the couch, motioning for her to sit down.
"Well, you spent the last couple of years as silent as a stone. You never told us anything about you" she said, sitting next to him on the couch. Neji looked at her and spaced out. He looked at her hair, her eyes, and her lips. He then chuckled, leaving Tenten looking surprisingly at him.
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" she said, smiling slyly at him, hitting him in the chest. He chuckled and turned his head to the other side.
"It's nothing, Tenten…" he said, feeling a hand beneath his chin. His face was turned around to face hers. She had a serious look on her face as her eyes narrowed
"What's wrong, you look troubled." She said, tilting her head to the side. Neji looked deep into her eyes and smiled. "It's nothing." He said, turning his head back to the side. He could feel the couch get lighter beside him as he turned his head back, she was leaving. Neji got up and followed her.
"Tenten…" he started, making her turn around. Neji was startled by her expression; it was an expression he never saw before.
"What is it with you? Every time I ask you what the matter was you reply with nothing. Why don't you open up to me, Neji? Don't you trust me?" she said, a single tear moving down her cheek, making Neji move his vision to the ground.
"You've never told us anything and here I am, trying to get as close as I could to you. I want to know everything about you, Neji. I want us to know each other" she said, sobbing and burying her face in her hands. Neji nodded and walked towards her and stood so close that she felt his breath on her hands. Tenten could feel his arms encircle her body in a warm embrace as he pulled her closer, burying his face in her hair.
"I've done a bad thing, Tenten, and I don't want you to get in too deep" he whispered, making her jerk her head up.
"I don't care how deep I'm in, as long as I'm with you, Neji." She said, looking deep into his eyes. Neji smiled and leaned his tattooed forehead against hers, moving his index finger to her lips. "Hear me out, Tenten." He softly said, "You don't know how deep I'm into. You have to leave." He said, his purple eyes piercing through her brown ones. She narrowed her eyes, trying to understand him, understand what he's hiding.
"You don't want to be through this, Tenten, Leave at once" he ordered, squeezing his eyes shut, and then he activated Byakugan, looking outside the apartment to see a couple of armed men stealthily moving towards his apartment door. Neji deactivated his special ability and looked back at Tenten.
"Please, Tenten, if you really mean everything you've just said, then leave." He said, holding her forearms. Tenten shook her head.
"No, I'm not leaving until you tell me-"
"-things will get ugly. You MUST leave" he said, making her almost break down into tears. He narrowed his eyes and turned her around, moving his hand to his back and pulling a gun out of his belt, putting it on her temple. Tenten's eyes widened.
"N…Neji?" as soon as Tenten finished that word, the policemen broke in the apartment, pointing their gun at the Hyuuga who was looking fiercely at them.
"Hyuuga, put the gun down and leave the girl alone" one of them said, raising the gun towards his head.
Neji smirked and got closer to Tenten's ear. "I told you that you should've left when you had the chance" he said, sounding bitter yet hurt. Tenten shook her head.
"Neji, what are you doing? Why are you doing this and why the hell is the police-"
"-SHUT UP!" he yelled, making her bite her bottom lip as her tears moved down her cheeks. She was afraid, afraid of him, afraid of dying by his hands. Neji narrowed his eyes and circled his arm around her shoulder, pulling her with him as he moved backwards, towards the window.
"Take one step and you'll die" the police man said, targeting at a spot on the Hyuuga's body where the girl can't be harmed. But Neji disobeyed, moving back towards the window, turning Tenten back around to face him as quickly as possible.
"I'm sorry, Tenten." He said, leaning forward and capturing her lips with his in a quick yet passionate kiss. Tenten kissed him back before she felt a strong push on her chest, throwing her back on the couch.
Neji took one quick look at her before jumping through the window, breaking the glass, and down to the street where he ran as fast as he could. Policemen moved towards the window, shooting at the running Hyuuga, not paying attention at the crying yet spaced out girl lying on the couch.
"Neji…Why?" she sobbed as she heard the gunshots and the policemen going out of the apartment.
Neji ran as fast as he could away from the policemen, looking behind him and smirking. 'I think I lost them' he thought, before tripping on something and falling face down.
"SHIT" he yelled as he hit the ground. Soon, he felt a cold thing on the back of his head, then the safety lock being pulled. Neji closed his eyes and bit his bottom lip.
"I never thought I'd be the one catching you, Neji" a voice said, Neji opened his eyes and looked back to see Maito Gai, his own sensei.
"G-Gai" he stuttered, looking at his sensei with the corner of his eye. "Don't move, Neji. You're under arrest for money laundering, assassination deals and defection against your own Village. You have the right to remain silence, anything you to say or do will be used against you in court…" Gai went on and on reading Neji's rights, the latter thinking about the girl he's used and hurt. Not long later, he was sentenced to do his 20 years in jail.
End flashback
"Hey, Neji-kun, you're not going to spend the rest of the day standing around, are you? You'll be punished if you stay here for long" Lee said, passing by Neji and walking towards the same Sector as the others. Neji sighed and walked towards his sector, his thoughts only about one person.
"I will not let anyone hurt you, Tenten." He mumbled as the gates of Sector A were closed behind him.
