chapter 3 apologies and new Friends

Sasuke's POV

I hated myself after what I did to him. He was the most innocent, most angelic thing in the world and Orochimaru made me hurt him like this. My plan had backfired on me and I felt so disgusted with myself I couldn't even bring myself to apologize to him or even look at him.

"Sasuke," The snake bastard said. I looked at him with a raised brow, trying so hard to reign in my hatred of the both of us at that moment. "I Have business to attend to in Tea country," He began. Thank god! Time away from him to spend with the Dobe, to spend apologizing to Naruto and making it up to him any way I could. "I want you to come with me so that we can continue your training." DAMN HIM!

"Hn..." Was all I could manage to say.

"Pack your things and we will head out right away. This business cannot be left to wait for too long," He finished and headed off. I clenched my fists tightly, angrily. I punch the wall, putting all my chakra behind it in a way that I'd seen Kakashi do before and created a large crater from the floor to the ceiling. At least my chakra control was getting better...

"Sasuke" Naruto said, when I came into the room. I couldn't look at him, I was too disgusted with myself. "What are you doing?" Naruto asked when I started packing a bag. I swallowed past the lump of pain in my throat and pride.

"Tea country... Orochimaru wants me to go with him to help him conduct his... business... and to continue my... training..." I grit my teeth as the words came out.

"Oh..." He was quiet.

"You... you're staying here." I told him, no room for argument in my voice. I headed for the door and stopped at it, barely looking over my shoulder. "Naruto.." I added. I felt him turn all eyes on me. "I love you... and... I'm so sorry..." I said before I went out. I caught up with that snake bastard and showed him that I was ready. He started walking but he didn't realize how much I hated him. Already, I was planning how to kill him. I would learn all I needed to from this disgusting old man, then I would destroy him. It was just deciding how to do it.

These thoughts entertained me on the long journey that we took as crossed territories and entered into the Tea Country. Then my thoughts started going astray. Who would want their country named after a beverage? Who would want to live in a country named after a beverage? It just seemed ridiculous to me.

"Sasuke, have you heard a word I said?" Orochimaru questioned me. I stopped and looked at him before lifting my nose in the air, putting on an "Uchiha Brat Attitude" as Kakashi would have dubbed it.

"I didn't even realize you were talking," I told him flat out.

"Ah, of course not," He looked annoyed but I didn't care. "I was just saying I have a facility out here, one that specializes in developing paralytic jutsus. Wold you like to check it out?"

Paralytic jutsu, huh? Interesting. "I suppose it wouldn't harm to have a quick look," I said with a noncommittal shrug. Let him think however much I was interested.

"Very well, right this way then." He lead the way to the Tea Country's research facility.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~ hjhjhjhjhjhjhjhjhjhjhj

I had never felt more disgusted. When the old bastard said "Jutsu Development" and "Research Facility" I hadn't been expecting THAT kind of research! What kind of soulless devils were these bastards?

"Really, I can't believe you vomited all over the floor. You know, Karin is going to have to clean that up and I doubt she'll be very happy about it." Orochimaru chuckled.

"Shut up..." I heaved a little. We were outside, but I wanted to be far away. "Our headquarters... do you do this kind of... research there as well?"

"Absolutely. What did you think it was called a Research Facility for in the first place?"

"Jutsu research does not entail human experimentation!" I shouted. I bowled over again and vomited more.

"All research requires test subjects. How will you know what effect the jutsu will have on a person if you don't use people? We need people, both to do the jutsu to ensure there's not backlash, and to see the effect the jutsu will have on enemies. You just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time." He said, a tone of complete uncaring. "You should see our northern facility in the land of snow. It specializes in medical advancement. The tests and results there are... far more gruesome." He laughed.

"What could be more gruesome than watching a person implode!" I cried out.

"Hacking a person into many pieces to try to reattach all his limbs with perfect functionality, its actually, quite interesting to watch." He started walking. I gagged.

"You're not a man... you're a monster... you and all these doctors." I told him, shaking my head.

"Say what you wish, I'm the only one who can give you the power you desire to exact your revenge." Orochimaru said carelessly, adding more fuel to my new fire of hatred.

"Um, pardon my intrusion, Orochimaru-sama." A small feminine voice said. I stopped and looked back. She was about my age, or maybe a bit older than me. Was this the so-called esteemed Karin who was in charge of the prisoners here?

~~~~~ Karin's POV ~~~~~~~~

I stared at the lord of Sound but the one who really caught my eye was the trembling, sick twerp beside him. Was this honestly Lord Orochimaru's new vessel? He was scrawny and...

His eyes turned to me and I got a good look at his face. My god, he was gorgeous. His black eyes were bottomless pits of raw emotion, his skin was a the pale ivory color of the moonlight itself.

He was... GORGEOUS!

"Ah, I um... Was wondering if you could tell me who left the mess in my hallway...?" I tried hard not to stutter or rip over my words.

"That would be Sasuke, here." Orochimaru motioned to the mess of a sexy teen next to him.

"I... right.. that was me," He said. No apology, no note of care whatsoever. "you the one who has to clean it?"

"Yes..." I whispered. I tried to be uncaring.

"I haven't eaten, so it shouldn't be chunky." He said before turning away and walking off. Oh! What a jerk! He's hot but what a nasty jerk! I huffed and marched back inside, ready to just stab him in his little sexy twit eyes!

~~~~~~~~ Sasuke's POV ~~~~~

"Why do I have the feeling this is going to come back on me later?" I wondered out loud as I walked away.

"Karin is very spiteful." Orochimaru said. He lead the way to the inn we would be staying at and went to his own room. I stalked into my appointed room and dropped on the bed.

"Naruto..." I whispered to myself. I love him. There was no getting around it. And now that my feelings are reciprocated, or at least they were, I love him even more. "I need a carrier hawk." I muttered, standing. I would send him a letter via hawk.

I stepped out into the hallway and froze. There was a man there who was tall with wild orange hair. But what truly drew my eyes was the black coat with red clouds. The Akatsuki coat.

"Who are you?" I demanded, puling out kunai and watching him intently. He turned to look at me, his eyes were strange looking, all gray with many rings. He had no whites in his eyes.

"Ah, the Uchiha child." He said carelessly. His voice was deep and he looked... freaky. His face was covered in piercings. "I never thought I'd meet you in a place like this. Where are all your little friends? How many children of the leaf village are here?" He asked me mockingly.

"None. I have no friends from leaf, as I am no longer a citizen of leaf. I am a rogue ninja, who joined the village hidden in the sound." I told him. "Look, there is only one thing I want from you... at the moment. And that is for you to tell me where Itachi Uchiha is!" Itachi was the one I sought. I had power now. Enough to defeat him? Only a test of strength would be able to tell. I wanted to know if I was truly beginning to bridge the power gap between us.

"Itachi... I'm afraid I have no obligation to give you anything. If you want that information from you, I suppose you will have to take it." He said in an uncaring voice. I lunged at him in that moment and used my chakra to move as fast as I could. I didn't have time to play games. With an attack from behind, I was planning on using my threads to wrap him and question him.

Speaking would have given away my position and plan so I kept silent.

"Child's play," He spun on his heel and held out one hand. "Almighty push." There was a ball of wind around him that sent me flying backwards and crashing through the wall. "A waste of chakra. Perhaps I should have created a new move to use against you. The almighty bitch slap would have been sufficient."

"Fuck you!" I snarled. I wasn't done yet. I started to charge my chidori.

"Hmm, interesting." He tilted his head a bit. "I only need one pair of eyes to defeat you but you still don't give up. Realize this boy, you are an ant beneath my shoe." I charged at him and he grabbed my throat. "So you plan to defeat Itachi..."

"I'm going to kill all of you! I'm just starting with Itachi!" I wriggled and gasped. I used a substitution and leaped from the air behind him onto his back. I was savage and wild at this point gripping his hair and jerking with all my might. I bit his shoulder s hard as I could and refused to let go. Forget Uchiha pride, forget decent fighting, this wasn't a real battle this had to be the end of it all.

"All of us? I admire your courage." He barely seemed to care. He pulled me off and threw me under his foot basically. "Why are you going to kill us?"

"N-Naruto..." I coughed. "You t-tried to take him... from me... I'll kill you..."

"For the nine tails jinchuuriki? So you know where he is. Very well, I see merit in letting you live. I shall spare your life for now. And for making me bleed..." he touched his fingers to his shoulder for a moment. "I will tell you only this bit. Itachi Uchiha has been sent on a mission to assassinate someone in the capital. He may already be finished and headed home... then again he may not." He said. A bright light flashed and temporarily blinded me and then he was gone.

"Fucking... asshole..." I sat up and rushed to Orochimaru. "Fuck your business, I'm going to the capital. You can come with me or you can wait here. But I leave as soon as possible." I will find you Itachi Uchiha...

" Naruto-kun how would you like to go with me to the land of the sea ?" kobuto asked happily "uhh why do you wanna go their?" I asked , what would kobuto have to do there . "I have to check on my experiments over there and meet someone... ".

'Maybe I should go, besides I could start my training on the way '

' well duh , of course you idiot...why did I have to get the dumb one.'

'what was that fuzzball !'

' WHO YOU CALLIN FUZZBALL YOU LIL TWIRP!'

'YOU ,YOU STUPID FOX...lil twirp... WHO YOU CALLING Little YOU MANGY FOX'

'GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!'

"Uh naruto... you there?" kobuto asked quietly

I chuckled nervously "heheh sorry kobuto I just spaced out a little and yes I'll come with you" kobuto let out a laugh "that's good cause were leaving today so pack up your bag" he said tossing him a bag. "where going the land of the sea " "something tell's me that kobuto went off the deep end"

"what made you think that "
