Itachi's Mission

Chapter 10

Kabuto and Sasuke arrived in the middle of Orochimaru's study with a soft thud. Sasuke panicked and squirmed in Kabuto's arms trying to break free from the tight grasp, but Kabuto no longer had to restrain the boy any longer, there was just no way he would be able to escape him or Orochimaru anyway; the child was released. Kabuto stared back at the frightened boy with a huge grin on his face, Orochimaru will be oh so greatly pleased with his little present. He was expecting to be rewarded greatly by his successful capture.

As one of the nurses walked by the study Kabuto waved her inside. She saw the small gesture and turned to walk inside the candle lit room.

"Please tell Lord Orochimaru that I have returned successfully with Sasuke"”she nodded to the man and walked out.

"No one can save you now Sasuke, not even your dear older brother" Kabuto mocked the shaking child with a evil laugh. But all Sasuke could do was stand there in shock, because he was right, why would Itachi save him? Before he was captured Sasuke acted so rudely to him, he probably thought he hated his older brother now. He was doomed.

Back at the Akatsuki Hideout

Itachi walked back to the common area trying to figure out why Sasuke was behaving so oddly, the only possible reason that he could come up with was that he was going through some kind of phase. But right now he had to focus on the mission at hand which was to capture Naruto. He guessed that his otouto was not planning on helping them, but this was fine with him, as long as he captured the kyuubi he'd be happy. When he arrived at the meeting place he found Kisame ready to leave for Konoha.

"Ready Itachi?"”Itachi nodded, and two seconds later they were gone.

Naruto was still moping around because he still had to wait one more day before he could go back to Tsunade and have her order a search for Sasuke; he was so depressed he must of gained five pounds because of all the Ramen he consumed. Naruto decided to visit Iruka Sensei at the Ninja Academy, his class should be out by now. As he approached Iruka's classroom he noticed he was listening to something Kakashi Sensei was explaining to him.

"Hey Iruka Sensei!" Naruto called out with a huge smile, then he noticed that his face was beat red and seemed very flustered for some reason.

"Hey Iruka sensei are you feeling alright? Your face is really red, are you sick or something?" Iruka just stared down at his desk feeling extremely uncomfortable.

"I guess I should be leaving anyway, bye Iruka" he gave a soft chuckle and left the embarrassed sensei and Naruto alone. Naruto was totally oblivious of the state that Iruka was in and continued to explain his problems to him.

"Iruka Sensei do you think that something bad has happened to Sasuke?"”

Iruka looked at the young and usually loud child.

"Well, I'm sure if something really did happen to him that Sasuke is perfectly capable of taking care of himself." Naruto sighed, everyone kept telling him that, it wasn't as if he denied Sasuke's keen ability to fight and defend himself, it was just that he had this gut feeling that something was terribly wrong with him, and apparently no one else thought this at all.

Orochimaru's Lair

Orochimaru slithered into the dimly lit room and of course dawned a beautiful, but sadistic grin. He approached the small and, lets face it, defenseless raven. The Sannin came so close to the boy that he could kiss Sasuke, if he really wanted to. He lifted a thin and sickly pale finger to the boy's cheek and it slowly descended to his smooth neck. Orochimaru admired the young beauty before him, he might have to take advantage of this before he took the body as his own, he thought, imagining all the different and delightful possibilities that he could do with the young specimen. Orochimaru was definitely going to have some fun.

Sasuke definitely did not like the look he was just given by the snake, he was in deep trouble, and he knew it. He backed away from the predatory man, but the snake just continued to trap him in a dirt filled corner. Sasuke wished he listened to his brother when he warned him not to go off wandering around by himself, but of course he had to disobey him and be stubborn as always.

"Please stop"” he whimpered to the older man, there was just nothing else Sasuke could think of, but to beg for mercy. Orochimaru would have none of that though, he didn't waste all that planning to capture Sasuke for nothing.

"Sasuke- kun", his grin grew wider, "relax, you might even enjoy it" he slowly rasped, and his perverted hand lightly rubbed Sasuke's hip. The Uchiha gulped, this was bad, very bad.

In Konoha

Itachi sat silently for a sign of Naruto, and with his searching eyes spotted the blond walk out of the Academy. Kisame didn’t say anything, he just nodded and both swooped down from their prior position and right in front of Naruto. The hyper ninja jumped back startled at the sudden appearance of none other than Itachi and Kisame.

"What d- do you want?" he stuttered, Itachi stared back looking almost bored and simply said "you". Kisame appeared behind Naruto so he would not be able to escape. Itachi slowly and confidently moved toward the quaking boy, Kisame stood there with a toothy grin, this was just too easy, he thought. Especially since neither Kakashi nor Jariaya were close by. Naruto was about to use his shadow clone jutsu, but before he could Itachi used his genjutsu, just for fun. Kisame rolled his eyes, he always has to show off he thought. The sky turned a blood red and a mixture of dark black, and Naruto stood there in a daze not knowing what just happened. Suddenly an image of Sasuke appeared before Naruto and the blonde gasped.

"Sasuke!" the image of Sasuke turned around and gave him a smirk. Naruto ran up to the raven haired boy, but when he came closer the sharingan blazed upon him. The two arms encircled the blonde ninja and everything disappeared.

Sorry this update took so long I've just had a lot of homework, I don't think the chapter is that great, but I'm gonna try to make the next better.
