Okay, so I found out that some people have been adding me to their alerts and what not, and I'd like to say thanks for all your support! :) And secondly, can someone just review once, at least?
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and the only person I do own is Chihiro... :(
Sorry if the chapters are too short. They will get longer as the story goes on and the plot line becomes more advanced.
Sasuke's P.O.V:
I couldn't keep up with Chihiro as we were sparring. She was way too clever. But that won't stop me. I'll come up with a way to defeat her, just like I did to all my other rivals. Besides, she's lucky I didn't use the second level of my curse mark on her. She wasn't worth it, anyway. It was only a sparring match, and that thing takes away too much of my chakra. For some reason, I kept smelling her lotus petals in my head and I couldn't get it out.
She disappeared with a 'poof'. A cluster of lotus petals were the only things that signified that she was here at all.
Even now, I can't believe a member of the "exclusive" Hyuuga clan deserted them and started to work under Orochimaru. That's a disgrace. Even I wouldn't do that. But Itachi definitely would. My thoughts altered to words of hatred to Itachi. I heard Orochimaru coming.
"Sasuke, you will need to watch something," he had said in that despicable voice of his. I asked why, and he said, "You need to see the powers that the curse mark can open up to."
"I already know."
"Kabuto and Chihiro will be fighting your teammates. Haruno Sakura and Uzumaki Naruto, I presume." My interest had sparked up immediately. So they had survived the traps? And what was it with Chihiro that made her special enough to fight those two with Kabuto?
Careful to keep my voice grudging, I nodded and said, "Fine." I disappeared and reappeared in a dim room. Judging by the voices, Chihiro and Kabuto were arguing. With a sigh, she started towards the door. I sensed Orochimaru appear beside me and I stepped back.
"Wait," he had said. "You will take him with you, understand?" After nodding at Chihiro as my sign of greeting, I had crouched down at a hole in the wall, along with Chihiro. She had been scared to face Naruto and called him "Uzumaki Naruto, the 'container' of the Nine-Tailed Fox." It took all my willpower not to smirk. Chihiro, the girl who had defeated me through sheer brilliance (though not for long), scared of NARUTO? Kabuto couldn't hold a smirk back himself, though.
She probably got tired of squishing in with me, so she had used her Byakugan to see through the hole and beyond. I honestly didn't care; I was too busy watching a disheveled Sakura grow impatient as Kabuto conversed with her. But when I sensed her chakra release, I couldn't help but gasp. All that power. So close enough that I could just snatch it away. I could almost see Chihiro's smirk as she heard me. I felt her peel away and went to the far corner of the room to activate her Byakugan. She closed her milky white eyes, concentrating as veins popped up around her cloudy eyes.
Okay, so I have a bit of a writer's block, so in the this week, I'll send what I DO have on my computer, and see if I can overcome that...sigh If you guys haven't seen my profile, I absolutely HATE writer's block...-.-'
