Chapter 4. Traps
All right, he hadn't planned to end up like this. He hadn't wanted to go here in first place. Now, he is caught by those Pagans for snooping around. He snorted. At least he got what he needed- Jacknall's Paw- safely tucked in his inner pocket. Jacknall's Paw is one of the artifacts to form the final glyph. It looks like mummified hand… he actually didn't wanted to touch it. Stupid Abbays! Why don't they go on missions like this and try out the feeling of being caught and mauled. He frowned- he got caught again and now he is in prison (again), only it's not main prison, it's Pagans Prison. He thought sarcastically 'where is the prince in shinning armor to save the day'. In the same moment that he thought this, he heard panting and somebody jumped in front of his cell, with their back to him, holding for left arm.
Naruto blinked- he must be seeing thing… this is not who he thinks it is…

He didn't know how many of these Pagans excited, but currently, there were about fifteen of them on his heels. He turned the corner and jumped on the wall. From wall he jumped on the nearby roof and continued to run. He was ducking to dodge the arrows, but in one moment, one arrow hit his upper arm. He winced and pulled out the arrow and continued to run. He is getting now what he bragged for. No one told him to leave the mansion and enter lions den! From roof to roof, from wall to wall. He was running like crazy last ten minutes and he still hadn't lost them. He cursed under his breath and turned around the corner to find out that he is in DEAD END! He cursed again and looked around. In the corner there were wines. That was all he needed- he run up to them and started climbing. He had great agility and he didn't have too much weight, so this climbing was piece of cake. Once he was on the roof, he stopped and let himself to catch little breath. After few moments he jumped down.

Naruto stared. And stared. And stared. And then, he yelled:
"What the hell are you doing here!?"
Guy swirled around and his eyes widened. He blinked once…twice…and then he burst out laughing! Naruto sent him dirty glare and Sasuke managed to stifle his laughter a little. He was still cackling when he said:
"I cannot believe my eyes!"
Naruto growled from inside:
"This is NOT funny!"
But that sentence made raven to clutch his stomach from laughing. Naruto huffed.
"Will you let me out or what?"
Raven looked him amused:
"What do I have from letting you out? Last time, you didn't tell me what I wanted to hear."
Naruto smirked and leaned on prison bars:
"Well… we can make a deal if you want to make up for it… My lord…"
Sasukes' face became flushed instantly, but then he smirked and leaned on the wall beside prison bars, looking Naruto straight in the eye: "I don't know if you have what I'm searching for."
Naruto licked his lips; this guy is so tempting… and beautiful. His form looks so fragile that somebody would think that it can break from only one touch.
"I can heal your wound…" offered Naruto. Sasuke blinked.
"You're medic?"
"Not quite, but I can do simple wounds." Sasuke looked at his hand- he hadn't brought with him anything that can heal his wound, so he decided to let Thief out even if his mind was screaming that he is crazy for doing it. Sasuke came to the lock of the bars and crouched a little:
"You owe me two favors, you know that?" The lock clicked and doors were opened. Before Sasuke could even blink, he was pinned on the opposite wall, pair of hungry lips attached on his. He gladly returned the kiss- it was hot, hungry and full with need and he felt that he could fall down if the Thief weren't holding him. He locked his arms around Thief's waist and brought him closer. Naruto slowed down in his kiss- he didn't expected from raven to return the kiss. He was ready to make raven kiss back if he didn't want. But after respond he got, he didn't felt the need to do that anymore. He became gentle a little and hugged raven tighter. But then he heard painful groan- he totally forgot about ravens arm and he was currently pressing it against the wall. He broke the kiss and pulled back to see painful expression on ravens face. He started to fiddle with his inner pockets to find some warps he brought with him.
"Sorry. I forgot that you said that you're wounded."
Raven winced: "It's okay". Naruto looked at the raven wanting to see what raven thought about the kiss. Raven was looking at him expectantly. When Naruto caught Sasukes gaze, he totally forgot what he was doing earlier. Sasuke frowned:
"Are you going to heal me or what?" Naruto snapped back to reality and pulled out set of warps.
"So sorry. I got little carried away"
Sasuke could notice faint blush on Narutos' face and he smirked. Naruto grabbed ravens hand and carefully pulled sleeve up. Sasuke winced a little- the wound was deep. Naruto frowned and he took out little bottle. Sasuke frowned: "What the hell is that?"
Naruto said: "Alcohol. I need to clear your wound or it will get infected."
Sasuke nodded and hissed when alcohol touched his wound. When Naruto cleaned the wound, he warped Sasukes' arm carefully, but tight enough to prevent wound from opening. When he finished, he looked at Sasuke who was watching intently what Naruto was doing. He looked back at Naruto, muttering:
"Thanks." Naruto smiled: "No problem at all."
Naruto noticed that he was still holding Sasukes arm. He lowered his palm and took Sasukes:
"Lets get moving."
Sasuke looked little surprised, but nodded.
Naruto followed the path that was covered with grass to cover the noises that they were making with running. He glanced over his shoulder: Sasuke was still holding his hand tightly with no intention of letting go. Naruto smiled, he likes raven…
Riding
the fires of
The northern gold
I've searched the eye
I laugh
under the weeping moon
Sasuke saw Naruto looking at him and he squeezed his hand to reassure blond man- he has no intentions of letting go. He sped up and he was now in line with Naruto, still holding for his hand. Naruto smiled and looked in front of himself. They will soon be at docks…
I am
the watcher in the skies Burn the winter
landmarks
Nor the emeralds know my mark
Glisten
to mark their presence
Set the enigma
ablaze
Searching...
Finding...
That said I was there
Burn the spirit of cold
That
travel through my soul
They arrived at the docks and hid in the shadows of the crates that were put there. Both were panting and they had some major luck, no one was in the sight. Naruto looked at Sasuke:
"I have to go and enter that ship. What are you going to do?"
Sasuke looked seriously at Naruto- his blue eyes were attached on his midnight black. He grabbed the front of blonds' shirt and pushed him into the crates, his mouth finding their way to blondes. Naruto reacted instantly- he warped his hands around raven tightly, bringing him closer to him, while he responding to kiss. When Sasuke pulled away, he looked little dazed but said:
"I'm coming with you there."
Naruto nodded. He let go of Sasuke and took his hand again. He looked around to check if there was somebody near. Seeing nobody, he nodded to Sasuke and Sasuke nodded back. They started running again.
They approached the ship in matter of minutes and they hid behind crates that were stored there. But then:
"HEY! What are you doing there!?"
Naruto cursed- it was local guard and now he alarmed the rest of the guards. Sasuke wanted to yell out but hand was clamped over his mouth:
"Are you crazy!?" Naruto hissed. "If they see you with me, you will be in deep shit." Sasuke then frowned: "What should we do then?" Naruto thought for a moment and then said: "You get out of here." Sasukes' eyes widened: "WHAT!? Are you crazy? They are going to kill you." Naruto just smiled. Sasuke couldn't believe with his eyes; Naruto is going to…
"Sasuke, swim." And that was the only warning before he was pushed in water. When Sasuke dived out, Naruto was all ready gone…
Once
again I've cried
Unto the moon
That burning flame
That has
guided me
Through all these years...
