Chapter 4: Dark Past
Naruto's POV
The Bastard just fled. Leaving me shaken up, naked, and cold. Just thinking about the creep gave me chills. "What am I going to do?" I wondered. "Why'd he run away so soon? I was really getting used to the warmth of-"
Stopping myself I noticed that I could feel my team mates approaching. Stumbling to get into my jumpsuit which was kind of hard when your back hurts, amongst other important things. I took off to the tree tops.
Jumping a little when I found a kunai knife being thrown at me by an angry kunoichi. Smiling a bit sheepish. 'Come on! When am I going to catch a break?'
Landing on the ground and pressing up against a tree, Sakura opened her mouth. Not wanting to hear it, I answered quickly shutting her up. "Really, Sakura, I just got done training when you came." I smiled. 'Like I would tell you the truth.' Pushing off of the tree I started walking, it was really best for me to really get back to the camp.
'Thank kami for this stupid jumpsuit, it was burning up in it, but hell it covered all the love bites, and other things that do not need to be said or seen. "Naruto, are you okay?" I looked up to see those light green eyes, they were beautiful. "Yeah, I'm okay." I could feel the heat on my cheeks.
"What are you blushing about Naru-kuh?" She eyed me as if she knew. 'Oh if only she knew.' I blushed more and started to run away from the whole situation. She caught up with me. "Naruto were you thinking about me again?" My whole face fail. I about laughed right there. "No, Sakura-chan, I've not been thinking about you. I promise."
"Yeah right, you pervert!" She punched me right in the jaw, sending me sprawling across the ground, and into a tree. It shook, branches rattling, and leaves falling.

The rest of the day just seemed boring. We started back to the village with Sai being back with us. Using those damned jokes and comments about 'Ugly Bitches, and Dickless Faggots.' Nodding my head, getting angry as usual, but not as angry, besides I'm not dickless, but I sure as hell am no faggot.
I'm not into labels. Though I did have sex with...but why in all levels of hell, am I even thinking about him.'
Reaching sunset and approaching the village fast, the forest was quiet at night. Looking up at the stars after staring at my other team mates looking at me awkwardly the whole wntire time was making me uncomfortable. All my thoughts kept flashing amongst Sasuke all becuase of Sai's face, Tsunade-ba-sama, and Orochimaru. Admitting to myself that I actually liked the creep was a bit scary.
Shaking my head, wondering about what I was going to do, my thoughts took a leave of their own, only thinking of one person. Orochimaru.
Taking in the smells and what I liked about this place most almost made me gag, as I suddenly remembered what I really didn't like.
I walked to my favorite ramen shop, "Ichiraku-san's Ramen Shop." Settling for the same stuff as everyday, Yamato and Sai went to report, Sakura going home. I decided to do the same.
I settled down on my bed, and looked at the photo of team seven, and nine. Picking up the picture that had only the four of us, I put it into my draw after taking one last look at it.
"I'm going to be here for two more weeks doing nothing, until that Bastard returns." A tear slid down my eyes as I started to think back on things. "It's just like Kabuto-teme said. Sasuke has changed, a lot."
"Still there wasn't enough conviction in the way his eyes had shone so much hurt." Turning onto my side, I decided to sleep. Knowing the difference in power and how I was to surpass it was taking it's toll on me.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Almost Two Weeks Later
Dreaming wasn't safe, and neither was puking myself awake. Cleaning off my mouth, and flushing the toilet I layed back down in my bed. Displaying all that I had felt, and trying to distinguish what this was all about. I kept having nightmares that I was to be near death with Sasuke.
Even though Kyuubi said not to kill me, I don't really know how long Sasuke can wait, after all he has to master the Mangekyou Sharingan. It was getting irritating, and at this moment I was starting to think that Orochimaru-sama was just using me as a boy toy and nothing more.
"Way to go, a fucking idiot you are!" I exclaimed enthustuactically,"You can't even stop thinking about him, and he could only be using you."
Trying to lay on myside again. I was starting to wander what was with this emotional change and attachment? Sure, I couldn't wait to see that bastard again, and see what other things he had in store for me; but damn I was becoming frustrated all over again. Rolling onto my back, I looked up at the boring plain ceiling, wanting to drift to sleep. But, I couldn't keep my mind clear. That was until a knock sounded at the door. "Enter."
I heard foot steeps. "Naruto, come on, Tsunade-sama wants to see you." I hopped up, the excitement pouring off of me in waves. I haven't talked to the old lady in a while. I thought that it would be fun, that was until she mentioned all that happened on the mission.
I was so glad that they didn't add the fact that me and Sakura cried. Smiling to say that we weren't giving up. I was starting to feel that maybe giving up on the search for him wasn't hopeless, and maybe even better for us all now. Just thinking about him, brought unwanted thoughts about the snake sannin.
Tomorrow would be the day. I had to figure out, which training ground and what time in the morning. He said that he'd send Kabuto with the exact time and place, and that I'd better not be late.
"Naruto?"
I looked up. "Yes?"
Tilting my head slightly and looking around the room, I noticed that everyone has been dismissed except for me. "Tsunade-ba-sama?" She shook her head, "It's nothing don't worry about it." Pulling out some Sake and sitting down, I stayed where I was.
She took a sip.
Standing up to look out of the window. I could see her reflection, it was as if her true age was starting to show. Slowly turning around she got everything back together.
"It's just that, you haven't been looking yourself lately. You were in deep thought as if something worried you." Taking another sip.
'Yeah, of course she would notice. I'm like a younger brother to her.
"Please. Naruto, open up to me, you're like a little brother to me, and I don't want to lose you."
I opened my mouth to tell her that she wasn't going to lose me, but even I knew that wasn't going to be all the way true, there was something that was telling me otherwise on the inside. I knew something was off, but only in my heart.
By this time in two weeks I could be fish food, Orochimaru could fuck me one last time, then decide to do some experiments, and finally get rid of my body.
"You know that it worries me. You don't have to lie, even I know that something is going on." She sounded worried, like she knew something that happened from my deep lost past.
"The last time you've acted like this was when...when that bastard-"
There was a crackling sound, and ash coming from her hands along with a liquid that traveled down her wrist. It was her cup, a loud crash above my head, and I looked into her eyes shocked about the outburst. She threw the whole bottle of sake into the wall, what was it that made her like this?
She looked up, tears streaming down her face. "Did that bastard Orochimaru touch you? Naruto that's all I need to know!" I was shocked, but that was the least of my worries.
"I-I d-don't understand. H-how-" I couldn't continue with my question, lowering my head, I closed my eyes. Turning my face the other way, I know that I should be hating that bastard right now, but all I could focus on was his touch.
The way he looked at me, and how he acted around his comrades, how he uses people and hurt them, exploits their weaknesses, and that right there just kind of pissed me off. I know that I really like him, and that he isn't good and that it's bad to do so. But...
I've become infatuated with the enemy, the same person who hurt me, the same monster who hurts people, the same man who gives me pleasure, though he was the one to curse me.
Something firm grabbed my arms and jerked me, making me look straight into icy blue eyes. "Naruto, I don't exactly know all about what that bastard's done to you, but I just want to know, did he try it again?" I looked at her as if she'd grown an extra head, but that wasn't helping as she seemed more desperate.
"Did he try to touch you again? I know you were with your team mates, but Sakura told me that she found you on your way back to the camp site, and that you were acting weird. That you told her that you've been training."
Pressing my hands together, she took a deep breath. I was shaken up on the inside, wondering how she knew what had happened years ago, 'How long has she known? I really want to know. How did she find out?' She put my hands close to her heart. "When you seen him again, and Sasuke, how did you feel? Naruto you have to tell me."
All these questions she was asking, why didn't she ask me before? Maybe if she did, then maybe, just maybe, I would hate the snake headed bastard now, and not feel so much shame in actually liking him. I liked all of what he did, too much.
The way he makes me submissive. I hate how the feelings in my heart want to just fall into his arms, and when Sasuke left. I felt that he was a lucky bastard to be around the hebi. I felt jealousy, if she really wanted to know. I felt hurt and left behind, by Sasuke the most. It didn't make sense, but nothing did anymore.
Pushing her away from me. I realized all of the worked up feelings inside. Deciding it wasn't best to lie to her, but it didn't mean I had to tell her the whole truth.
"Enough!" I yelled out at her, she looked perplexed at me.
"That bastard didn't lay a hand on me!" Anger welled up inside of me, caused by her, and her words. They were truth, but I still wanted to remain in denial, and so I did.
"Of course I felt something. I felt hurt, pain, and worse of all betrayed. I wanted to kill both of the bastards, can you blame me?"
It felt good to just cry, to just let it out. I was mad at Sasuke for leaving me behind after I gave it my all to stop him. I've went through great lengths and measures to try to get him to come back, only to find out his true intentions, and wish that I would've never considered doing so.
I don't regret being his best friend, I hate him for not knowing about what Orochimaru was and will continue to do to me. He may stay ignorant, or even be oblivious to it, but even he knows that I'm cursed, and will forever be betrayed by those who I hold dear to me. It could never be the opposite way around.
'Everyone that I've truly cared for, or could have always find a way to take advantage of me, leave me, and betray me. It's as if I'm insignificant, having no meaning, there's just so much that a person can take, but I know that I'm truly no human being, I'm a monster. 'A Monster for loving...' I caught myself just as Tsunade-ba-sama held me in her arms, and she cried with relieve.
I cried to just cry, hating everything that was going on in this mass confusion. I just sat there for as long as I could try to remember, I didn't even realize that I fell asleep in her arms until I woke up in my bed. Staring at the ceiling just as usual. I had one final thought before I drifted off again. Not having any dreams at all.
"Great. What more can this life possibly have to offer?"
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Today was the day that I'd have to meet up with the four-eyed bastard, Kabuto. The days really flew by quickly. I had to get a check up with him. I haven't been feeling very well, though that's nothing for anyone else to know about. I would have to keep this to myself. I decided to ignore Kyuubi when I asked him what was the matter with me, and he said something about me being pregnant.
I laughed my little ass off at that idea. I'm a guy, and guys don't get pregnant. What else was I suppose to do, I couldn't exactly go to anyone, during these sicknesses, and I sure as hell wouldn't tell Tsunade, cause that would just bring up more suspension, questions, and surveillance on me than what I already needed.
Running through the village, I made my way down an alley way near the hospital. Standing and leaning up against the side of the building was the damned bastard himself, of course I would've punched him, but that would be inappropriate.
Taking a step forward, he pulled out a kunai knife. Pressing it to my throat, he looked like he was seriously about to kill me. I looked at his arm, that lead to his shoulder which lead to his neck, no doubt, and landed on his face. The bastard was smirking.
He took a step back. "Just kidding."
I was starting to think he was just like an annoying bitch, I didn't like her as much as I did anymore, she all of a sudden seemed like a nuisance. He smiled, and put his hand up in a wave that said follow me. Changing his appearance, we entered into the hospital. Turning down corners and hallways, and me not liking to be in this place, we stopped at a door on the left.
"Naruto-kun how are you feeling today?" '
Shrugging my shoulders, "I feel fine really, but I don't really feel fine." He took these things down on notes as if a real doctor. "What are your symptoms?" He smiled, then nodded his head. To be honest I was a bit scared that he might try some kind of experiment that would have me open on a surgery table, and boy did that not seem to look as bad as I imagined. "Symptoms Naruto."
"Um, I've just been a little quesy, poking, and maybe..." I was interrupted by Kabuto the bastard. "What about fatigue, Naruto?" He sounded like he was already annoyed with me. I continued with a breif shudder, "Sakura says I have moodswings like a woman,and that's why the pink haired, green eyed bitch must die!" I laughed, then sniffled regaining my composure.
Smiling evilly, he bowed, and did the same hand motion that spoke of an 'Follow Me.' Though I was still scared just by that smile and the thought that ran in my head about him being some kind of nutcase. If that was the case-which I wouldn't doubt that he isn't- I would still follow.
Walking out of the back way exit of the hospital, he lead me back into the alleyway, transforming back, he handed me an envelope. "Plan's changed. Read this, and follow the directions. I have better things to do right now, and I have to report back to Orochimaru-sama." I grabbed the manilla envelope, wondering what was in it.
"Here!" The silver haired bat threw something at my head, I caught it with ease. Looking at them, I could see little white and round pills. "You should take these to help ease some of the symptoms, if that doesn't work." He shrugged looking elsewhere but at me, "Then, you should try a seaweed wrist band." With that he waved me off, and I finally could feel the warmth of the sun once more.
"Crippy bastard." I said as I thought back on his actions while ordering some ramen. My eyes travelled to the envelope I carried with me. Tempted to open it right then and there, but I decided not to.
Finishing my bowl, I ran home, and took out the envelope. Opening it, I slowly pulled out the documents that needed to be read. Dropping the envelope, my eyes grew wide.

Kabuto's POV
The results were remarkable. I had to give Orochimaru-sama this report right away. Writing down all of the symptoms. I evaluated, "Well, at least he isn't sore anymore." It's hard to picture Orochimaru-sama with the brat.
How I would love to feel Orochimaru, moving on top of me again. I envy him, but right now I'd be glad that such a performance and act was not formed on me. Chuckling. "Orochimaru-sama." I bowed.
Closing the door behind me, handing in the report. There was a smile of amusement. Of course I can make him smile like that, but just the fact that someone else besides my self, and that little fag downstairs (AN: Referring to Sasuke ) I wonder what else that boy can do.
"Did you hand him the envelope with another set of instructions as planned in case this happened." It wasn't a question, more of an obvious command that was obviously made to sound like a question. "Yes. Orochimaru-sama. I've done as told." Clearing his throat he took a step towards a door that was hidden behind him, giving me the sign to follow him I did as planned.
Wondering what it was that he was exactly planning to do. Being a loyal servant doesn't always pay off in the long run, nor does it in the short. Following him wondering what it was that he wanted to talk about. "Experimentation." Smirking as it was in my own expertise just as it was his.

Naruto's POV
Dropping the files. I shook my head, there was no way in hell that I would leave the village with him in two months. Nor would I reach my decision about all of this by tomorrow. This was too much, there was no way, and I mean no way in hell that I was.
Even though I hate this place, I wouldn't trade it for another or risk it's safety because of my silly crush.
"What am I going to do? The plans have all changed, there's no way I could leave them all behind. They would be mad at me, and even I would regret it." My whole body shook from how stressful this was becoming.
Either way, I really didn't have a choice in the matter. Knowing the snake sennin he would try something funny. He would get his way, either in kidnapping me, holding something over my head, or by using brute force attacking the village. I had to think twice. I didn't want them dead either. 'What am I to do?'
Pacing, I decided that I would decide for myself, during the arrangement to meet the bastard tomorrow. Preparing for sleep, I set my alarm clock, two hours earlier than what I'm used to, and hoped to Kami that this wasn't happening.
Moonlight filtered through my bed room, slapping myself as hard as I can using one of my clones. This was definitely no dream. I had to decide, which seemed to make me want to cry. Whimpering, I settled for sleep. Things were not looking up for me at all.
