The Ninja Who Loved Me
Chapter 7: An Attempt to Do the Mission
Author's note: 3 reviews! Please guys! More!
I'm pleased to announce that Naruto will be here as well next chapter!
Also, the main couple in this story of mine is Sasuke and my OC, Hitomi, if you get confused with what she looks like, here it is.
Hitomi and Sasuke in this story are both around 12 or 13.
Hair color: Black, long, and pulled back in a ponytail, kind of like Kikyo's hairstyle if you've ever seen Inuyasha because I love that hairstyle.
Eye color: Green.
Of The Hidden Sun and Moon Village
Outfit: White shirt with a black jacket with black belt and black pants like Tsunade's. Her jacket is with the symbol of the Sun and Moon Clan, which is Half Sun and Half Moon together, and on her sleeves Japanese writing that I would say "Sukashi" My assassin team that Hitomi is apart of. And the Headband of the Sun and Moon, which she wears occasionally to hide her identity. And black sandals like every Ninja wears. The outfit she wears to the party is like Sakura's look but it's black, is shorter with red flowers and is cooler.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, (cries hysterically) but I do own Hitomi, who tells the story.
After I ran away from the party, I entered an alley and collapsed to the ground. All of the ways one could betray someone that they cared about so much, this was probably the worst thing I could've done to the people who had taught me everything I had ever known about being a Ninja and the people I owe my very life to. I had fallen in love with the boy I had to kill to become a full member in the Sukashi and I just had to let him kiss me, not once, but three times and I didn't even protest against it! What the hell is wrong with me! He obviously had the "I'm Sasuke Uchiha" sign right over his head and I didn't even see it. How could I have been so stupid? Not only had I let my emotions get away from me, something my two Sensei warned me never to do, but I had three people know of my existence and if someone asked, I would be easily looked on since I wasn't from this village. I wanted to go home and be away from him. Why did I have to be assigned to this mission and then fall in love? I had never been in love before and now I was, and the worst part was that we could never be together. I could die right now and I wouldn't even care, nothing mattered. I was in love with someone more than anything and I had betrayed the family that had trained me since I had lost my own and how do I repay them? By falling in love with my one chance to be in the Sukashi fully, and now I'm not even sure if I can do that. If I let him live, obviously I will lose not only my reputation in the Sukashi, but also, I would be hurting my family. But if I did kill him, that would destroy me forever. Could I do it?
Whether or not I could or couldn't didn't matter.
I had to. Sasuke would grow up to destroy this village and I had to make sure that he didn't do that. It was not about my feelings for him anymore, it was about my job and the well being of the beautiful place that my brother loved so much. No, a Ninja could never let their personal feelings get in the way of completing a mission. This isn't about me, it's about doing my job and keeping this village safe. No matter how much I really loved him, no matter how much I was telling myself that I couldn't kill him, I had to do this. I don't have my ninja gear with me but still have my kunai with me, obviously, I couldn't leave the village now, I would draw too much attention to myself, and I've done enough of that tonight. I would have to kill Sasuke with my kunai and get the hell out of this village. The part of me that loved Sasuke Uchiha and my target was gone, still screaming for the assassin to have mercy on the boy, but I couldn't hear it because I had a job to do. I wiped away the tears of frustration and angst at what I wanted and what I could never have. But I had no choice. Tonight, I would become a murderer, and stand over the body like I did when I avenged my family. By killing this boy, I would be saving thousands of lives, whether they would know it or not.
I stood up and prepared to take my rightful place in the Sukashi, and tonight, Sasuke Uchiha will die.
After much deliberation, I went back to the entrance of the party and waited for Sasuke to come out so that I can follow him home. I found in a Ninja pack, a sleeping drought which I would use when I got back into his apartment. I would hide my chakra so he wouldn't sense me and then sneak into his home, spike him, and then kill him. I hadn't killed anyone since that day years ago when I looked my family's killers in the eyes and avenged their death, and I was only ten years old. At ten years old, I became a killer, and today I would become another one. I had sworn never to kill again after my family was avenged but this was the only way I could possibly protect the Leaf Village and become apart of the Sukashi. That's always been my reason for living, that and revenge. But since my revenge was completed years ago, now was my time to pay back the Sukashi for all that they had done for me. I needed to push my feelings about killings and now my love for Sasuke Uchiha aside and think about what was right for everyone and not just myself. I watched as normal girls my age were talking about how they were planning their future as Genin, talking about boys that they liked, going home to be with their families and were enjoying life, something that I could never do. I could never do that, I had lost all sense of happiness when I was 7 years old, one day before my eighth birthday when my life was destroyed and I have been alone. Even though I was taken in by people, I was still always alone. That was my destiny, to always be alone.
I then was brought out of my thoughts when I heard a bunch of girls screaming a familiar person's name.
"SASUKE!"
I looked out from my hiding place just enough not to be seen, only to see the two girls from earlier hitting on Sasuke once again, and I felt for some reason insanely jealous, not that I had any reason to. This boy was going to become a murderer, a criminal, and not to mention a traitor to everyone that ever loved him. Why did I have to fall in love with him?
"I told you both to leave me alone!" Sasuke barked at them.
"But Sasuke, you promised to tell Ino-Pig how you felt about me!"
"But Sasuke, you know that you won't say that, because you feel that towards me, you bad boy!"
I clenched my fists and tried to control my jealously. I was fighting my huge desire to go over there and punch both of them away and say that he was mine and only mine and no one else could have him. He kissed me not either one of them, couldn't either of them take a gentle hint? No, Hitomi, shut up those thoughts of yours! You know that you can never ever be with him and even if you try, the Sukashi will kill him instead, and besides you have a job to do and you cannot abandon it no matter what! Dammit, why was this more difficult than it had to be for me? Why did he have to be so perfect? Why are you even saying that, you know nothing about him at all.
"Look, leave me alone. I'm not in the mood to deal with you crazy fan girls!" he yelled. "And besides, I'm looking for someone so get the hell out of my way!"
He began to walk away from them, when the stupid pink haired girl spoke again to which Sasuke and I tried to contain our anger. I began to wonder who exactly he was looking for, because it couldn't be me.
"I hope it's not that girl that was with you and ran off after you told her who you were, Sasuke!"
I hit myself in the head and realized I was completely screwed. I had let 3 people know of my existence and one of them was my target and also he was someone I loved more than anything in the entire world, and I'm supposed to kill him. Why the hell am I so stupid? Why am I even hoping that he remembers me. I'm not even supposed to be in love with him, I'm supposed to kill him.
"As a matter of fact yes," Sasuke said and then walked away from both of them. "And it's not going to be easy looking for her with you in the way."
My heart stopped. Was I hearing things correctly?
I followed him after hiding my chakra so he wouldn't be able to sense me. He was looking everywhere for me, and yet, he didn't know I was right behind him. I couldn't believe it, after all I tried to convince myself of, he seemed to love me back. What am I even saying? This is obviously Genjutsu, why I am even considering the possibility he loved me back? He obviously kissed me just to...just to...Oh shut up! I followed him for hours and still he didn't stop. I knew I could've killed him anytime I wanted, but I just didn't want to. I wanted to savor this last few moments with him before I to kill him. And the worse part about it was that I couldn't even let him know that I was there. He sighed and looked depressed and let out a sad sigh.
"It's like she vanished into thin air," he said. "Why did she leave when she learned who I was?"
He ended up stopping at a house and opened the door, but before he did, he said one last thing.
"I didn't even know her name."
And then he went inside and I quickly followed after him, managing to slip in as soon as the door was about to close and thank god I got in without being noticed. Some evil part of me wanted him to notice me and take me in his arms and kiss me and tell me that he wasn't Sasuke Uchiha and those awful girls that were flirting with him were lying and that's it. But I knew better than to hope, and knew that I had to do my job and do it without him putting up a fight, and then eventually, I can pretend like this never even happened. I cannot wait to pretend like I never met or fell in love with this boy. The Leaf Village wouldn't be able to find me that easily as I would far away and back in the Hidden Village of the Rain and back with the Sukashi. But we won't be back there and in your nice room knowing you did a good job until you make sure his heart stops beating.
It wasn't long before we entered Sasuke's apartment. It didn't take me long to realize that it was absolutely pitch black in here. Did he leave here all alone? Didn't he have a family like normal people?
Sasuke's apartment wasn't much. It consisted of things you would have in an apartment. A bed, although in this case it was huge, some tables, both coffee and side table, a desk covered in books with a poster over it, a TV, a huge window to look out into the night before you went to sleep, and there was a balcony with glass doors that you could use to look out over all of Konoha. This was the home of Sasuke Uchiha.
When I made sure I was alone, and I couldn't see a thing, I was about to use a Jutsu but someone turned on the lights and I saw the lights coming from the bathroom, and then I felt completely awkward. Great, just what I needed to have in my head. I had to find some way to spike him so that he doesn't scream in pain when I kill him. Even though I had to kill him, I didn't want him to suffer, even though he deserved it. I hid behind a wall, trying to fight back tears, as I held my Kunai knife close to me. I had to do this fast, I wasn't sure how much longer I could hide my chakra. I was still resisting the part of me that loved Sasuke, I had to do this or he would kill hundreds of innocent people. I couldn't let that happen. But still he had given me a sort of life that I hadn't felt in years. I loved him, and I kissed him and he was really the only one I wanted to be with me at all times, but I have a duty to do. Why is it so hard to choose?
He came back out wearing a dark black shirt and gray pants. And then walked over to his bed and got under the covers and let out a depressed exhale before he was silent. I then took this opportunity to use my spike ball. It cannot be heard or smelt or seen, it releases a gas that intoxicate the victim up to the point of passing out. And when this gas is inhaled, the victim will be out for several hours and cannot react to anything at all, not even the sharpest knife being placed into their body. I waited and covered my mouth and nose and made sure that I would not inhale it. I waited a few moments for the gas to take full affect on him. I walked over and moved his hand, then I realized that wasn't my best idea, because I remembered earlier tonight how I loved the feel of his fingers interlacing with my own. I had to stay focused. He was unconscious.
I took the Kunai Knife out of my pocket and raised it over his chest and was about to plunge it into his chest when I saw something cross my eyes. I looked down at him, and saw tears in his eyes, and they looked like they stained his face which could only mean that these tears were shed only moments before I released my spike ball. Were they over me disappearing? They couldn't be. He was a future murderer practically and he couldn't possibly have any feelings for me. That is impossible, and I raised the knife over him again, and I was so close to his heart when I couldn't move it any further. I couldn't.
Sadly my feelings had taken me completely over, I loved him too much to kill him, and I dropped the Kunai knife on the ground and collapsed on the ground next to his bed and I lay there in disbelief. How could I have let this happen? I can't even kill someone I know will be a future threat to all of us, and now I'm madly in love with him? What will the Sukashi say?
I then walked up to him, and did the unthinkable and kissed him full on the lips before leaving his apartment to figure out what to do about this. I couldn't leave the village without doing the job, and now I wondered how exactly I would do it now that I was in love with Sasuke Uchiha.
That's it! I hope you enjoyed it!
Next chapter will be Hitomi following Sasuke after he's put into Squad 7, and hearing his argument with Sakura, and understanding him a little better.
