Kabuto POV

Kimimaro had appeared in my lab so unexpectedly, that I never had the chance to tidy up. Blood was splashed heavily in every inch. The corpses I had experimented on and recently aquired. Mutilated body parts were strewn in the left corner. I had just finished with my work for the day. The fruit of my work showed on my clothes.

"Kabuto-senpai, Orochimaru-sama has called for you."

"What is it he needs?"

"That new doctor was given a curse mark.Orochimaru-sama wants you to tend to her."

"Wakarimashita. Demo matte. I have to change clothes and gather supplies." I'm being summoned to take care of someone who recieved a curse mark? They must be important or they'd be left to fend for themselves. Orochimaru-sama told me to stay here and continue working. He said if an emergency came up he would fetch but this doesn't seem like an appropiate emergency.

Kabuto went into the other room of his lab. Picking up various scrolls, a research notebook, and some narcotics, he grabbed his bag and carefully arranged it tidily. Even with me there, there's a good chance she may die. Kabuto's mind wandered to when he first saw the new medic. He had actually seen her many times, but she was always unconscious. He had checked in on her many times when other medics cough were in short supply (Orochimaru killed a bunch). She was odd. Her chakra is practically abundant and with a dark sense about it. It reminds me of Orochimaru-sama. Unlike Orochimaru, Kabuto noted how her chakra held the same properties as Kyuubi's. It healed wounds almost instantly and seemed nearly alive. "I wonder if Orochimaru-sama would mind me taking some chakra samples." Chakra extraction is a very painful procedure. Orochimaru-sama wouldn't mind. I mean he did hospitalize her Kami knows how many times. But then again...

Another thing that Kabuto found odd-not chakra related- Orochimaru acted completely different around her. In the hospital wing, he'd seen him stare at her. Sometimes he'd go and sit right next to her. He'd lean down and touch her, smell her, taste her. And then there was this one time when Kabuto went by his master's bedroom and opened the door and saw Orochimaru ... with his pants down and ... um...fill in the blanks yourself... Point is Orochimaru was acting strangely. Kabuto saw no particular worth in her. Sure she cured Kimimaro, but still that was just luck that her village was so familiar with that condition. Kiki did have a good body. If it wasn't for her practically suicidal tendecies, she wouldn't be in the hospital so often. Could she be a new body candidate?

"Kimimaro-san, I'm ready."

Kimimaro POV:

Kabuto-senpai left into the other room to prepare for departure. I sat down on a nearby stool. Kiki-kun was given a new kind of seal, not heaven or earth or any of those. But a new seal that is one of the more powerful ones, a naraku (hell) seal. She's so lucky. She's chosen as someone special to our lord. She may not be able to see it yet but someday she will. I can tell she's blind right now so I intend to help her see the light. I can tell because I see the sadness and lonely and fear locked deep in those eyes. Orochimaru-sama can help her as he helped me.

Orochimaru's POV:

Those wide blank eyes filled with fear. Her shallow breath, fists clenching and unclenching the sheets. I took my hand and caressed her cheek, then dragged my fingers through her hair. The kimono I changed her into was falling open and revealing her well-curved body. "Poor girl... just endure a little longer." I stole a kiss from her lips and she didn't react. Smirking, Orochimaru turned to leave.

"Onegai. Yamete. Hitori ni shinai de kudasai!" A panicked shriek escaped from Kiki.

I turned quckly and stared in surprise at her. One of her hands were now squeezing my wrist to a degree where I couldn't move it. I could feel the blood circulation being stopped. "Nani?"

"Onegai. Kowaii desu. Hitori ni shinai de kudasai!"

"Doushite?"

"Onegai!"

I couldn't help but smirk at her desperation. Her calmness had been gone for a while, but still, she was begging me! I had reduced her and broke her down to the point where she was actually begging! I couldn't very well turn her down, could I? "Fine then." I kneeled on the bed, removed her kimono, and placed her under the covers. I took off my shirt and layed under the sheets with her. I put my arm around her and instead of flinching away, she cuddled closer. "Doushite..."

"Kowaii desu... Mamoru..."

"...Aishiteru."

"Aishiteru, Kaito-kun..."

Kiki POV:

Surging pain shooting through my body, and then nothing. I opened my eyes and I was smothered with thousands of snakes wrapped around my body. Wrapping around my neck. Forcing me to lay down and still. But I kept moving my hands for they were free. I only stayed sane for the angel staying next to me, caressing me with reassuring touches. My own guardian angel. "Poor girl...endure a little longer" a blurred voice sung. You'll stay forever and protect me, ne? Iie. He's leaving me! Why is he leaving me?

"Onegai. Yamete. Hottoite shinai de kudasai!" I grabbed his wrist and begged him to stay.

He stopped and turned back to me. "Nani?"

"Onegai. Kowaii desu. Hottoite shinai de kudasai!"

"Doushite?" Doushite? So he can protect me. Why can't the angel see I need him?

"Onegai." Why do I have to keep pleading? Why?

"Fine then." I felt my clothes being removed and I being placed beneath the blankets, but I didn't care! He promised to stay! He layed next to me and I could feel bare skin touching mine. He wasn't wearing a shirt. He broke the silence by asking,"Doushite?"

"Kowaii desu... Mamoru..."

"Aishiteru..."This wonderful feeling surging through my body. This beautiful feeling. I've only felt like this once before with one man.

I know who my angel is...

"Aishiteru, Kaito-kun."

I know it's short but hey I updated it a lot quicker. READ AND REVIEW Thank you. And Mamoru isn't a name it pretty much means protect me.
