Chapter 4


Deidara was sitting in his captain's hut. He had given his crew orders to set sail and now they were on their way. As Deidara was drinking some of his new (stolen) liqueur he suddenly heard his crew yelling.

"The enemy is coming! It's the marine captain!" Deidara heard one of his pirates yell. He immediately got up and moved out of his hut, to see a marine ship coming at them at rapid speed. Deidara frowned but then drew his sword. If they wanted a fight, they could get one.

"Drop the sails and get the canon's ready un!" He yelled and his crew did as they were told. Deidara walked to the back of the ship and saw the marine ship was already just metres away from them. "What do you want!?" Deidara yelled to the men on the enemy ship.

A man with raven hair got into Deidara's view, with piercing black eyes. He looked at Deidara, while his ship stopped.

"We're searching for Uchiha Sasuke!" The guy yelled, which made Kiba's eyebrows furrow in confusion.

"He's our old captain Deidara." He told his current captain.

Deidara looked at Kiba and then turned his attention to the raven haired marine guy again.

"He's not here un! Now leave or I'll make my men fire at you!" Deidara yelled back. Was that Uchiha Sasuke guy such a dangerous pirate that the marine was after him?

"I'm not here to fight, he's my brother!" The guy yelled back now. Kiba's head snapped towards Shikamaru.

"Sasuke's brother?" He asked. "He has a brother?"

"And one in the marine as well obviously." Shikamaru said frowning. Now that was odd.

"Well he's not on my ship! Two of my men might know him un!" Deidara yelled back. He wasn't quite sure why he was telling this man about Kiba and Shikamaru, but somehow he wanted to help. Just a little though, I mean, why would a pirate help the frigging marine.

"You know where he is?!" The guy yelled now. He yelled something at his men now, while turning his attention back to him. Kiba frowned slightly.

"Let's get him on the ship Deidara." He then said. "If he's truly Sasuke's brother, he deserves to know where he is."

Deidara hesitated for a while but then turned to his own crew.

"Throw out the anchor!" He yelled and then turned to the guy on the marine ship. "Come aboard and my crew will tell you whatever they know un!" Maybe he could bribe the marine into helping him with something if he helped them out.

The man nodded as he ordered some things to his crew as well, while Deidara's crew made sure the ship didn't move anymore. It didn't take long before a bridge was thrown over the sides of both ships and the guy walked over it, accompanied by two others. They were all dressed in black pants and a red uniform. The two behind the captain of the ship were also wearing a white wig, a huge contrast to the raven hair of the other.

Deidara walked to the bridge as well, his eyes never moving away from the raven haired marine guy. That man was damned hot. Like, really hot. He had the attitude of a person that could care less about anything, yet he seemed like he had a big heart. He seemed quite.. gentle.

"Kiba, Shikamaru, get your asses over here un." Deidara told his new crewmembers. "So who are you?" He asked the man that now set foot on his ship.

"My name is Uchiha Itachi." The man said, making a slight bow with his head, not seeming to care that the persons facing him now were actually pirates and for that, criminals. "I'm the captain of this marine ship and we got a message from our southern troops that the Hyuuga house has been attacked. The youngest son in the house has been kidnapped by a man that their youngest daughter describes as my long gone brother. I gave up searching long ago, but now I know that he is close by I restarted the search. Would you have any idea what he is searching for?"

"Well I don't know un." Deidara said, his eyes moving over this man's, Itachi's, body. Damn.

"He's looking for a treasure." Shikamaru and Kiba now walked up to the marine and their captain, having heard Itachi's story. "I don't think he has found it yet."

Itachi looked at Shikamaru now.

"Do you have any idea what treasure that might be?" He asked, very gently and polite. "Do you know him?"

"We used to be in his crew. He's a captain of a big ship." Shikamaru answered. "He's looking for the pirate treasure. The one pretty much every pirate is after, but no one has found it yet. It's on one of the islands around here."

"The treasure of captain Reyrind?" Itachi asked, frowning. "...That explains why they attacked the Hyuuga family. They have been looking for it for years now. Are you searching for the treasure as well?"

Before Shikamaru could answer, Deidara moved into view again.

"Well that really isn't any of your concern un." He said defensive. "You might be a hottie, but you don't need to know 'everything.'" He crossed his arms now and looked at Itachi.

This made Itachi pull up an eyebrow. He was silent for some time, before answering again:

"If you are searching for the treasure then I'd like to offer you my services in exchange for helping me find back my brother."

"And what will that gain us un?" Deidara asked, still having his arms crossed.

"It means he has more information about the treasure." Shikamaru said, shaking his head. "Deidara is also looking for the treasure, and so is everyone on this ship. We could use the help."

"Hey who's the captain here Shikamaru un!?" Deidara yelled, pointing at his big captain's hat. "That's right, I wear the hat!"

"I have the information the Hyuuga's posessed, plus some information from the marine itself." Itachi said, with a nod. "I mean no harm, I just want to find my brother back."

"I don't trust the marine. I'm sure that when we've served you and brought you to the treasure, you're gonna take it and have it all for yourself un. The marine are a bunch of scumbags." Deidara said.

"And what if only I come with you and the rest of the marine goes back to the land?" Itachi asked. Immediately, the two men that had come along with him started protesting but Itachi send them a slight glare, quickly shutting them up.

"And what makes you think we will trust you then un?" Deidara asked. Shikamaru was now sighing and shaking his head. How did they end up with a captain like this?

"...I feel flattered that you think I could take the whole crew from a pirate's ship on, but sadly enough, I can't." Itachi dryly said.

"... Yeah well... I'm still not sure un." Deidara said. He had to keep up his pirate act. If his crew saw him giving in to a marine guy so easily, they would loose respect.

Itachi was silent for some time, before he tried it another way.

"Look." He then said. "My brother left the house to get more money, at least that's what he said. He became a pirate, but I'm sure he never knew that once he became a pirate, he couldn't come back. I want to get him off of the sea and bring him back home. I have no further intensions of that. I just miss my bother and my parents do as well. I'm not interested in gold or any other treasure. I just need to find him."

Deidara looked at Itachi for a while now and then sighed.

"Fine you can come. But only you. And if we find the treasure it's ours un." Deidara said.

"Wait." Shikamaru told Deidara and then turned to Itachi. "If you have no further intentions then why bring an entire marine crew with you?" He asked.

"It was the other way around kiddo." One of the men behind Itachi said. "We wouldn't let our best captain go sail the sea alone without knowing he will be alright, would we?"

"Kiddo?" Shikamaru asked, but let it rest.

"Well he'll be fine on my ship, now scram un." Deidara said, waving his hands at the other marine men. "I don't want you on my ship any longer."

"So you will help me finding my bother, and I will help you searching the treasure, correct?" Itachi asked, just to be sure.

"Yes un." Deidara said nodding. "'And' I can touch you whenever I want. Don't worry I won't hurt him un." Deidara snapped at the men behind Itachi, who immediately started bickering again when he said the word 'touch'.

Itachi raised both eyebrows at that now.

"You'd better not hurt him." The man who had spoken before, snapped. "If we find out you hurt him then we 'will' send the whole marine after you."

"Guys." Itachi said. "I will be fine. Thank you for coming with me. You can report to my father that I'm on Sasuke's track right now." The men nodded and slightly bowed to Itachi, who bowed back.

"Be safe." The guy said and clasped Itachi's shoulder. The other did the same.

"We'll get your clothes." He said and the two of them walked over the bridge again. A little later, one of them came back with a bag that was filled with some of Itachi's clothes. He handed them to Itachi and after they said goodbye, the man walked back to the marine ship once more.

"Good, now make them go away." Deidara said, about to throw the bridge between the two ships right into the water. He wasn't that fond of the marine.

The man that was now leading the marine ship shouted some orders to the crew and the anchor was pulled up again. The bridge was taken inside of the ship again as well, and as the ship started sailing, the crew was waving to Itachi, who was waving back.

Deidara nodded, glad the marine was leaving and then turned to his crew again.

"Pull up the anchor and set the sails! We're moving again un!" He yelled to his crew and then grabbed Itachi by the arm, pulling him along. "You can sleep in my hut."

"That's fine." Itachi said, as he took his stuff with him. He didn't question why Deidara had wanted him to be touched to be part of the deal though. They walked into Deidara's hut and Itachi put down his stuff, looking around. The hut certainly looked like the captain was sleeping there, it was filled with expensive looking stuff. Plus, there was a huge bed in the room, something that was rarely seen on a ship.

"So what do you think of my room un?" Deidara asked, suddenly standing very close to Itachi.

"It looks good." Itachi said with a nod. "Shall we look at the map?"

"Sure. Shikamaru copied it from your brother's map." Deidara said nodding, pulling the map out of his pocket. He was gonna leave his 'we could look at something else as well' comment for later.

Itachi just nodded once, as they bowed each other over the map. Despite the serious situation, there was a slight smile on Itachi's face. He was going to find his brother back.


The next evening, Neji was sitting in the open window, staring at the sea. They had left the island immediately after Sasuke had punished him for hitting him, and they had continued their journey. They would sail for a long time now, since they were in the middle of the first 'v' of the islands. It had been a long day for Neji, he felt more scared then ever, and even worse: he didn't feel safe. He had wrapped his towel around him to cover his chest - he was still only wearing the leather pants- and had loosened his hair to cover more of his body up. Of course he could have grabbed some clothes out of the closet, but he didn't even have the courage to do that anymore either. He was tired of getting hurt.

At that moment, the door to the hut was opened and Sasuke walked in. He closed and locked the door and then looked at Neji, smirking.

"Hello 'Neji'." He said, making Neji's name sound a little dangerous but also sexually tinted when he said it. "Had a nice day?"

Neji felt a sting of sickness in his stomach, and a rush of fear.

"..Yeah.." He then replied, just saying what would be the easiest and the most safe. He hated himself for being so out of character, he hated himself being weak. But the hate wasn't as strong as his fear was at the moment. He didn't even have the guts to look at Sasuke now. He just stared at his own legs.

Sasuke looked at Neji, frowning for a second, but then shrugged away how Neji was acting.

"So I thought, since I let you off the hook the other night, you could give me a little treat." Sasuke said. "So why don't you strip for me?" He licked his lips just at the thought of Neji's body moving sensually.

Neji bit his lip slightly as he looked at Sasuke.

"..What do you want me to do?" He asked. as he quickly stood, still afraid that he would do something wrong.

"I want you to strip for me." Sasuke said. "So do it, right now. And please, take your time and make it enjoyable. For me that is." He smirked at Neji.

Neji broke the eyecontact and then walked towards Sasuke, standing in front of him. He didn't do something for some time, before he started to slightly move his hips and let the towel drop to the ground. He didn't understand why Sasuke wanted him to strip now he was just wearing pants, but he just did as Sasuke wished.

Sasuke looked at Neji, for some time enjoying it, but then looked at Neji's face. Something was off. Completely off. Neji was no longer himself. And as Sasuke felt a pang of guilt go through him, he got up and hit Neji right in the face. It made him angry.

Neji frowned slightly now, as he looked at Sasuke with a slight look of fear on his face. What had he done wrong this time? He swallowed, as he pulled down his pants.

Sasuke just hit Neji again, this time even harder.

"Stop it." He snapped, hitting Neji again.

Neji quickly took a step back.

"Stop doing what!?" He asked, slightly panicking. As he saw Sasuke's fist coming again he quickly ducked, so it missed him.

Sasuke just moved his actions into a kick, kicking Neji away hard.

"Just stop it and go back to how you were before! If you want me pissed off it's working!" Sasuke yelled at Neji. He was walking towards Neji again.

Neji dropped onto the ground now and let out a wince.

"..B-but you're always angry with me!" He then yelled. "What do you want me to do?! I obey you and even then I'm wrong?"

"You're my prisoner so I get to tell you what to do! I get to be angry at you when you disobey! And also when you obey, because that's no fun!" Sasuke yelled back. "Now stop yelling!"

Neji looked away now, silent.

"..Sorry.." He then muttered.

Sasuke immediately yanked Neji from the floor again and hit him once more.

"Don't tell me you're sorry!" He yelled.

Neji swallowed as he looked at Sasuke now, slightly trembling. He was afraid of opening his mouth again, so he just looked at Sasuke. He had no idea what to do anymore. Sasuke seemed to get angry about 'everything'.

Sasuke was silent for a while as well and then turned around, walking away from Neji.

"Get dressed." He snapped. "Get dressed and go lay in bed and make sure I don't hear you, or see your or smell you or anything that will make me know you are here."

Neji did was he was told, not even trying to understand what was going on with Sasuke. He quickly put on the leather pants, got in bed and laid down under the covers. He made sure the covers were up so far that Sasuke couldn't see him.

Sasuke sat down at his table and sighed as he laid his head down on it. He just couldn't deal with his stupid hostage tonight. He had been way too busy, right now he needed rest. That was probably just it. He needed rest. Nothing more.


A few days later, moans and pants were to be heard from Sasuke's hut. Sasuke was laying on his bed and hunched over him was Neji, moving his head up and down. Sasuke had a firm grip on Neji's hair, who was giving him a blowjob. Sasuke didn't even have to force Neji anymore to do it. Neji had just done it. Sasuke could care less now that his manhood was being pleasured by Neji's mouth. He was close. And it didn't take long before Neji sucked on his cock, and Sasuke came inside of his mouth. Sasuke let out a low moan and his hips shot forward, while he pushed Neji's head to him as far as he could. He didn't care he was chocking Neji with it. Sasuke started panting when his orgasm was over, and looked at Neji. Neji swallowed the sperm obediently, trying to breathe with Sasuke's organ deep down his throat. He knew Sasuke liked seeing his cock in Neji's mouth and had already punished him once when he had taken it out too early. Although he had obeyed Sasuke in the last days, he had only gotten more beatings then before. Sasuke rarely tortured him anymore though, a big relief. But thanks to the beatings, his body was all black and blue now. Together with the wounds on his body, his body looked awful. Even his lips were swollen and red because of the blowjobs he had to give the raven. To put it short: Neji felt damn miserable. He was nothing more then a boxing ball and a sex slave right now.

Sasuke looked at Neji, who was still holding his cock in his mouth. He then pulled Neji up by the hair and threw him next to him on the bed. He sat up and hit Neji, but for a change, it wasn't that hard.

"Seriously Neji, if you don't stop this behaviour and get some personality, I will throw you out there again and let my men do to you whatever they want. I want the old Neji back." He snapped.

Neji frowned deeply now as he looked at Sasuke. He was silent for some time, before he suddenly glared.

"I don't get you Sasuke." He then said. "You get angry because I have personality, and when I suppress it, you get angry as well. What do you want?"

"I want you to have personality you ass, what fun is it to torture you if you're just gonna obey?" Sasuke snapped at Neji. He looked at Neji glaring at him, actually enjoying it.

"You're torturing me while telling me to obey." Neji snapped back, as he got up. He put on his pants now. He didn't get Sasuke anymore.

"I want you to obey eventually." Sasuke snapped. "I just don't want you to act like a scared puppy."

"You give me reason enough to act like that." Neji snapped. It was not like his fear was gone now, but he did know now that Sasuke was going to hurt him anyway, no matter if he was silent or misbehaved. He just had to obey on certain points.

"Well it's no fun so I give you reason now to not obey all the time. Or I will leave you on the deck." Sasuke snapped. "And I don't like how you look right now either, so don't you dare to fucking get yourself in trouble so I have to scar you up even more. The whole fun of your body is gone."

"I thought you liked seeing my body scarred up." Neji snapped. "Perhaps you should try my ass, there are no scars there yet." He sarcastically added, while he put the towel around him.

"That would be a waste." Sasuke snapped back. "And I like it being scarred up, but not when it already is."

"Well it became time then that you realised that wounds take time before they heal." Neji said, talking as if he thought Sasuke was stupid.

Sasuke grabbed Neji by the hair now, but this time it was in a different way. A more wild way instead of threatening.

"I am not stupid if that's what you're implying." He snapped and pushed Neji down on the bed.

Neji narrowed his eyes now.

"You are the one who's surprised that my skin doesn't immediately heal." He then said, pushing Sasuke slightly off of him.

Sasuke just pushed him back down though.

"No I don't, I'm telling you you'd better not wound yourself anymore, because there is no fun in hurting you this way." He snapped.

Neji was silent for some time as he stared at Sasuke angrily. Suddenly he made an unexpected move, catching Sasuke of guard by jamming his knee directly into Sasuke's crouch. While Sasuke rolled over in pain, Neji snatched a knife off of Sasuke's table. He pushed Sasuke down to the bed, sat on top and then pushed the knife against Sasuke's throath.

"Do you want to know how 'nice' it is to be hurt?" He snapped, with narrowed eyes. "Do you?! Huh?!" He was so angry. How dare Sasuke do this to him? How dare he scar him up like this, without any good reason?

Sasuke quickly grabbed Neji's hand, making sure he couldn't actually cut his throat. He did regret not having his sword now. This was the first time he was in this type of vulnerable situation on his own ship. And it didn't happen a lot on land either. Sasuke just glared up at Neji before he spoke.

"You wouldn't dare hurting me." He hissed.

"As if you would hurt me more then normally." Neji snapped. He then started pressing. With his free hand he gabbed Sasuke's hand and pushed it down onto the bed. He actually sliced into Sasuke's throath now, drawing blood.

"You'd better not move, or I'll cut your throat for real." He snapped as he saw Sasuke's hand moving again. "Trust me, I'd do it with pleasure."

Sasuke stopped moving now as he looked at Neji, not wanting to give him the pleasure of giving out a groan from the pain.

"Do you really think I have never been hurt before? That I was born with all these scars?" Sasuke snapped. He was waiting for an opening to turn the tables.

Neji narrowed his eyes even more. He then removed the knife and before Sasuke could react, he jammed it right through Sasuke's right hand, the hand he always used to cut Neji open with. He as well was highly aware of every muscle in the human body, so he knew exactly which points he had to hit.

"Isn't it a nice feeling, Sasuke?" He snapped.

Sasuke wanted to let out a scream, but suppressed it and let out a cough. His face was betraying he was hurt though.

".. Stop it Neji." He snapped. He moved to pull on Neji's hair, like he always did to pull him close or away.

Neji quickly reacted by grabbing Sasuke at the throat now and pinching hard.

"Do you want to feel the nicest thing of all?" He snapped, his face red of anger. He immediately flipped Sasuke around, tore down his pants and then used the knife, the same knife Sasuke had tortured him with, and immediately shoved it inside Sasuke's entrance, which looked like it had never been used before. It'd better hurt him damn much. Because Neji knew he was going to suffer tonight for these actions.

Sasuke could no longer suppress his scream now and let it out. He could hardly bring out anything after that, all he could do was try to turn around to push Neji away.

"S-stop it! Fuck.. Neji stop!" He yelled as tears sprang to his eyes. This was not supposed to happen. Especially not this.

Neji glared at Sasuke as he thrusted the thing in as hard and deep as he could, before roughly pulling it out. He then started to make slices in Sasuke's back like mad, scarring him up like Sasuke had done with him. He started hitting him too, making sure Sasuke was bruised. After he was done with it, he just sat on Sasuke's back, panting, while trying to blink the tears away.

Sasuke had been screaming his lungs out and once he felt Neji was done he immediately turned them around and pushed Neji down. He hit him in the face immediately. Tears were streaming down his face now, but he didn't want Neji to see. So he just kept on hitting him, over and over again. He couldn't stop anymore. Neji had to pay. Pay for what he had done to him.

Neji didn't even look at Sasuke as he let himself be hit. It was like he was in some kind of trance. He had been so angry, he had been so willing to take revenge for what Sasuke had done. He had lost his mind for a moment... it made him wonder if the same had happened to Sasuke. Had Sasuke lost his mind because of something like this too? Neji just stared at nothing as he felt dizziness taking over, tears dwelling up in his eyes. If this was going to go on some longer, he would kill himself during the day. He couldn't do this much longer.

Sasuke continued to hit Neji and it didn't take long before he had the brunette unconscious. Sasuke slowly started hitting softer, until he stopped all together and looked at Neji exhausted. It was just now that he realised how horrible Neji looked. So unhealthy, so bruised and broken. Neji had been completely healthy and feisty when Sasuke took him and Sasuke had taken it away. He bit his lip and leaned forward on Neji's shoulder, hitting his chest once again in anger. He felt more guilty then ever for what he had done to Neji now. He had been horrible. He had been messed up even more then he already had before. Sasuke felt more tears streaming down his face as he trembled slightly. He then got off of Neji and started cleaning the blood off. He then sat down on a chair, no matter how much it hurt and didn't go to sleep the entire night. He had no clue what to do anymore. Without being able to suppress his feelings like he had been doing for so long, he felt himself slipping back into the feeling of despair. And it had been so long since he had felt that. Neji might have just broken him more then Sasuke could ever break Neji.


Dun dun duuuuun. The story is gonna shift in a different direction now.
