The Betrothed Bastard

Disclaimer: Naruto doesn't want to be mine! ToT!!

Warning: AU, really. Maybe OOCness, but that's because I want to fit the characters so that they co-respond with the universe. It will be a happy happy joy joy story all the way with little to no complications at all. This is because I suck at angst. NaruSasu. NejiGaara. Always wanted a Swan Princess/Ugly Betty crossover set in the future so I shall deliver!

Act 9 : Not your average damsel in distress



Sasuke scoffed at yet another failed attempt to get him in the dress. Did they really expect him to be forced, easily, into doing something that low? And then what? Role play?

Pleeasee~

Orochimaru entered the room and laughed (that weird pedo laugh he has) while cornering Sasuke onto one side. Sasuke backed up, for he wasn't afraid, but touching the man cold mean he might get cooties, and Naruto hated cooties.

Isn't that what you get from touching girls?

"Now, Sasuke-kun. Play nice and I might show you some mercy…,"

Wrong!

Don't touch Sasuke and you'll have some mercy. For at the advance of Orochimaru, Sasuke had bravely, and swiftly, kicked his jewels.

"Uuuurrrgghh," letting the man rot on the floor, Sasuke sat on the windowsill, hoping that Naruto would save him soon. Heck, even Itachi is welcomed.

"I like that about you, young Uchiha, and I will not stop until you submit yourself,"

Wrong again!

The second time Orochimaru approached, Sasuke had snapped the man's wrist. He eyed the other wrist and Orochimaru got the message. He slinked away but not without a threat to Sasuke.

Please. Like he cares.


Night time came, and Sasuke managed to pick the door lock and was wondering aimlessly along the corridor, mapping the new territory. The place was not crawling with guards, and it looked like your average laboratory, every slide door has to have card access. No problem then, Sasuke had swiped the card from a fallen guard in front of his room.

He was enchanted when seeing a large tank filled with water, and swiped to go in. In the tanks was a man with aquamarine hair, and the man had the nerve to wave at Sasuke.

The man waved Sasuke over to a control panel, and Sasuke figured that must be the release panel. Sasuke briefly wondered why he was helping this stranger, but that one time, during Christmas, Sasuke saved this kitty from a tree, and Naruto was ecstatic that Sasuke was such a hero, and gave the Uchiha a kiss.

Imagine what he was gonna get when he told Naruto he saved a man!

Content with the promise of a kiss from his dobe, Sasuke decided to spring the guy free. And maybe he can ask the man to comment on his blog or something that Sasuke saved him.

After pressing some buttons, the tank was still as it is, so Sasuke opted for another way. Picking up a black bladed sword from the emergency case, Sasuke swung the sword into the glass, shattering it. The man fell along with the current, and rose to his feet to hug his saviour.

"Thanks! I'm Suigetsu,"

"Sasuke," the Uchiha decided to keep the blade just in case.

"If you're springing out of here, you better go get Juugo. Just the sight of him makes the guards tremble. And Karin too, she knows where all the emergency exits are,"

"Lead me to this Juugo,"


The duo was on their way to see Juugo when Karin bumped into them in the hallway. At the sight of the gorgeous Uchiha, she immediately agreed to help them, mumbling along the lines of 'Sasuke juniors'

The steel door made Sasuke think twice but at the prospect of seeing Naruto again, Sasuke knocked on the door to hear a muffled 'go away'. Not one to be intimidated, Sasuke opened the door to see a man crouching at the far corner.

"Juugo?" Sasuke's voice made the man tilt to look, a confused gaze apparent. Sasuke waved the man closer, so that he could speak in private.

"Why are you here? Are you a prisoner as well?"

"I am Uchiha Sasuke," immediately Juugo was washed with a massive flashback, concerning his friend Kimimaro.


"Juugo, apparently Orochimaru-sama has a new favourite," Kimimaro informed his dear friend Juugo.

"But Kimimaro! That means you.."

"Yes, it means I can no longer have the hello kitty cup reserved for the favourite. But just serving him makes me feel like I'm still serving Orochimaru-sama, so it is enough,"

"Who is this new favourite?" Juugo asked.

"Uchiha Sasuke,"



"So you are the chosen one," Juugo concluded. The man was definitely pretty, muscular body and pale skinned, weird hairdo but it looked nice on him.

"Why are you here, Juugo?" Sasuke demanded.

"I can't go outside, I always feel I want to kill," Juugo muttered embarrassed. Sasuke raised an eyebrow.

"Only Kimimaro can control my urge, if I leave here, many people can get hurt,"

"I can control you," Sasuke implored confidently. Suigetsu raised an eyebrow while Karin swooned.

"My brother can teach you how to control yourself and channel your anger towards something else, you can let your killing urges free at times, and still not hurt anyone," Sasuke provided.

"And why are you so keen to help me?" Juugo inquired. There had to be a catch.

"I want you to help me get out of here first. Suigetsu said you are strong,"

"And in return, I will be your binds," Sasuke said. He doesn't have much time. Naruto must be worried. Juugo thought about the deal and agreed, waiting for Sasuke to open the door for him. The latch was a pain to deal with, and as Sasuke tried to pull the door free, the metal hinges creaked and got stuck halfway, with a gap too small for Juugo to fit through.

"It's stuck," Sasuke informed.

"I'll push then," Juugo gave his arms some flexing before pushing the door. Too bad he underestimated his strength, so the door hit Sasuke's head with a large THWACK!

"Sasuke!"

"Sasu-chan!" Suigetsu caught the falling Uchiha just in time, cradling the man close to him. Already some blood had begun seeping down his forehead, and Karin tore Juugo's pants to wrap the wound.

"Quickly, I have a place close to here; we need to get him medical help!"

"It's okay, I'm a medic, hurry, through here," Karin ushered the guys through a secret passage, but not secret enough that it triggered an alarm.

The guys made haste and hurried to Suigetsu's place, as the lab shrilled the living dead to life.


Meanwhile, with Itachi and Naruto,

"Hahaha! I got in you **********! Release Sasuke!" Naruto exclaimed as he and Itachi burst through the main entrance. Instead of meeting a group of men armed and ready to blast them, they were met with a group of men that were running around in chaos.

"Uhh..what's going on?" Naruto snatched the nearest guy he could reach.

"Uchiha Sasuke escaped his cell!"

"Oh,"

"Wait, aren't you guys…?" a whack behind his neck made the guy faint, and Naruto and Itachi slinked away unnoticed by anybody else.

"So, Sasuke escaped? My bride is more desirable now than ever,'

"He's my bride!" Naruto squawked. He batted at Itachi experimentally, but of course, being an Uchiha, Itachi evaded it easily.

"Then, we just have to wait for him to return,"

"Jeez, I hope Sasuke doesn't get groped on his way home. God knows the hobos likes the sight of his ***," Naruto complained. Itachi raised an eyebrow at that, he could relate very well.


--back at Suigetsu's place—

"He's out cold, but the bleeding stopped," Karin informed them. Juugo and Suigetsu huffed a breath of relief.

"Well, we'll just wait until he wakes up," Suigetsu suggested.

It was 3 o'clock in the morning that Sasuke woke up, and Juugo was there to greet him. The Uchiha asked for a glass of water, and Juugo's name.

"Err, it's Juugo,"

"Oh," silence reigned as Sasuke tried to get the information into his head. Juugo thought that maybe because their meeting was so brief that Sasuke forgot who he was.

"Then, if you are Juugo, who am I?" Sasuke proceeded to ask.

Juugo gaped at the young man, thinking only one thing.

Chance!
