Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. Not even a little bit.
I slipped into the dressing room and stripped off my simple clothes, letting them fall into a heap on the floor. I exhaled and sucked in harshly before ripping the dress on roughly. I tried to simply pull it on at first, but I soon realized there was no way it was going to fit without a little force. I admitted it was beautiful—for a prostitute.
It was a dark cobalt blue that shimmered with light sapphire embroidery detailing the corseted area. It pulled in tightly at my sides making my already petite form even more slender, and my breasts nearly touched my chin they were pushed up so high. The corset ended at my hips and flowed into a lacey skirt that fell just above mid thigh. I finished tying the last of the corset strings and stared at myself in the mirror. I groaned in disgust.
"Let's see," Kakuzu said from outside the door.
"No, that's okay," I called from inside as I grabbed my cloak to cover up.
"Izumi," a warning sounded in his voice but I refused to open the door.
"No!" I called out as I scrambled to get into my cloak.
"I'll fucking rip this door right off of its hinges if you don't get out here right now," Hidan's voice boomed. I heard the customers in the shop go silent, most likely just as scared as I was. I groaned as I hesitantly unlocked the door and turned the knob. It opened a crack and I stepped back from it. Kakuzu opened it fully and stared in, examining me meticulously with his beady green eyes. I covered myself with my arms and stared in humiliation at the ground.
"Put your arms down," Kakuzu commanded. I obeyed, my face hot with embarrassment.
"Holy shit, look at the whore," Hidan exclaimed while laughing. I closed my eyes to stop the tears that wanted to break through my barriers. I didn't have a witty comeback.
"Okay, that's good," Kakuzu said decisively. He stepped away to pay the shop owner and I quickly grabbed my cloak and pulled it over my head, brushing past Hidan without even glancing at him as I walked out.

"This is the place," Kakuzu said as we stopped in front of a lavish mansion. I looked at him blankly, not having spoken since I put the dress on. I didn't want to waste my precious air on words because the corset was making it very difficult to breathe on its own.
"Go knock on the door and tell them you want to see Gorzo, they'll understand. You'll be screened with other girls to decide who gets to see him, make sure you get it. When you do, you'll be taken to his room. From there you must lure him outside where Hidan and I will be waiting behind the mansion. You got that?"
I looked at him and nodded somberly. He grabbed my chin in his hand and forced me to stare into his eyes.
"I know you don't want to do this, but you have no choice," he said sternly yet almost apologetically.
"Okay," I said more strongly than expected before leaving the Akatsuki's side and walking towards the front door. I admired the exotic plants and scenery as my heels clunked against the cobble stone pathway with every step. I took a deep breath before knocking lightly against the enormous door that stood before me. When I glanced over my shoulder, Kakuzu and Hidan had already left.
"May I help you?" A voice startled me. I snapped my attention forward once again to notice a tall lumbering man before me. His dress was professional, and demeanor intimidating.
"I-I'm here to see Gorzo," I said shyly with my hands clasped together behind my back. The man looked me up and down before asking me to remove my cloak.
"Just gotta see what's going on under there," he assured with a sick smile on his face. I groaned inwardly as I pulled the cloak off over my head. The man's smile stretched across his face when I did so. He nodded to himself.
"Good, come right this way," he said as he placed his hand on my lower back and pushed me along with him into another room. He opened the door and gestured for me to enter. I did as he requested. There were two other girls sitting on a couch in silence. One had long red hair with emerald eyes, her dress was clearly made to mimic the brightness of her irises. The other was brunette, her hair twisted in an elaborate design and her dress was red and orange reaching to her knees.
I could feel their eyes judging every part of me. I ignored them and sat in a chair that rested by itself in the far corner of the room. After several minutes of awkward silence, the man from before entered again.
"Follow me," he said as he waved us towards him. We trailed behind the bulky man into another room one flight up. The guide entered first and held the door open as the two girls and I followed. He shut the door behind us and stood in front of it with his arms crossed as he looked to the only other person present in the room.
A larger man sat behind a desk that looked out at the platform in which we stood. He was balding so that only the sides of his head showed any sign of life and his mustache sat thinly across his top lip. It curled upwards when he smirked.
"What a selection," Gorzo exclaimed while rubbing his hands together as if he was about to dig into an all you can eat buffet. I wouldn't have been surprised if he already had that day from the size of his gut and the amount of chins that laid dormant below his face.
He pushed back the chair in which he sat and stood from his desk. His stride was harsh and unflattering as he walked over to the red-haired woman. He looked at her closely, examining every detail about her. She giggled playfully when he grabbed a lock of her hair to smell before moving on to the next woman who winked at him seductively when he looked at her face, which sent a small smirk to play on his own. He felt the material of her dress between his fingers, surely just an excuse to rub against her creamy legs. The women stared at him lustfully, typical gold-diggers.
Finally he approached, standing before me with wandering eyes. I couldn't look him in the eye, Kakuzu was going to be angry when I blew it and didn't get chosen. When I did attempt to look at him, I noticed it probably didn't matter whether I could look him in the eye or not because his eyes were aimed a little lower than eye-level.
Pervert.
I gazed around the room as he continued to examine me.
"Such sad eyes," he said while grazing my cheek with his fat finger. I flinched as he startled me, my eyes connected with his soulless ones.
"I've made my decision," he announced as if anyone actually cared.
"Sir?" the man at the door questioned.
"Take these two," he said while gesturing towards the other two women. My mouth dropped as they glared at me on their way out. He chose me?
"Come this way, my sweet," he said giddily as he walked through another doorway which I found led into a giant bedroom. I vomited slightly in my mouth at his choice of nickname. Two colossal windows faced out towards the backyard. It really was a lovely view, but I was more concerned with other things at the moment.
Gorzo shut the door behind me, the click of the lock being put into action could be heard. I stepped in front of the window in case Kakuzu and Hidan were watching so that they knew I made it in. I saw no one however. The room was enormous with high ceilings that were embellished with paintings and one extravagant chandelier that shone refracted light onto the walls. The biggest object in the room was an oak-framed bed covered in a velveteen blanket, red silk sheets, about an abundance of embroidered decorative pillows. Two night stands stood on each side of the bed, an alarm clock on one and an ashtray on the other. A still-lit cigar sat casually in the tray, its smoking fumes slinked upwards with artistic grace.
"Do you like the view?" He whispered into my ear from behind while wrapping his arms around my waist. My whole body went rigid.
"O-oh yes, its lovely!" My voice cracked as I maneuvered out of his grip and smiled falsely at him. He grinned back and came towards me again.
"I know another view that would be lovely," he said as he trailed his index finger down my jaw line and neck. When it began to venture further I stepped back nervously with that fake smile still plastered on my face.
"Maybe you could show me your courtyard first," I suggested sweetly before adding, "I'd love to see the flowers."
"There's only one flower I'm interested in," he said in a failed attempt at being seductive as he stared at my short skirt. He reached over and pulled the shades down without breaking eye contact—he was used to this. His massive form was overwhelming as he pushed me towards the bed. I fell onto it, bouncing as he landed beside me. Gorzo reached over to grab his cigar, the sickly smell bombarding me with every puff.
"You're so beautiful," He cooed as he pulled the string of my corset abruptly, causing it to loosen against my will. As much as I wanted to get out of that dress, I wanted to stay in it as long as I was around that walrus of a man. I tried squirming away from him before his weight rolled over me.
"Can't breathe," I wheezed until he lifted himself, propping over me with his elbows. He took a long puff on his cigar and looked at me playfully, his lip curled into a sickening smirk before blowing the smoke out and leaning in for a kiss. I turned my head to the side, a tiny whimper unintentionally escaping my lips. He went along anyway, attacking my neck with his tongue. I knew I was supposed to play along, but things had gone too far. I couldn't complete my mission, even with how much I wanted to be strong, I just couldn't do it. It was time to throw in the towel.
"Stop, get off!" I cried suddenly as I pushed him away. My palms mashed into his face, contorting it as all his fat pushed to one side. He grunted in dismay before lifting himself off me.
"What the hell's wrong with you?" He asked, the rage in his voice making it rougher than before. I rolled out from under him and leapt off the bed, staggering backwards for a moment, not used to the unbalance of stilettos.
"Just stop! I want to go home!" I yelled as I stood defensively in case he was to come at me.
"Oh so you wanna play rough? I'll show you rough," He smiled devilishly before lunging towards me. I leapt onto the bed and began crawling frantically towards the other side, the velvet blankets slipped beneath my knees, making it hard to move with any haste at all.
"Ah!" I shrieked as I felt a forceful grip wrap around my fragile ankle.
"Oh no you don't," Gorzo spat fiercely through gritted teeth, his cigar still held between them. I clawed desperately at the blankets to pull myself towards the edge of the bed, but the wind flew from me as I felt myself being yanked backwards. I screamed as he grabbed my torso and flipped me onto my back.
"I wanted you, so I'm going to have you," he said as smoke blew from his mouth like a disease that clouded his lungs and expelled itself into the air. I squirmed desperately as he grabbed me by my hips and pulled me against him roughly, his hands travelling up my skirt and tearing aggressively at my underwear. It tore easily.
There was a moment when I just looked into his eyes, searching them for anything. But the only thing I saw was a clouded soul, iced over with selfish indignity and lustful hatred. They glinted with wild delight, reveling in my trepidation. His smile was wide, and twisted like the roots of a dying tree. Blackened in the crevices, the smoke from the cigar seemingly flew from his mouth as if to show the stench of his breath and wickedness of his spirit.
"Get off!" I shrieked as I kicked my legs violently, connecting with his face just once. My jaw fell slack and eyes shot open widely as I gaped at the image presented before me. Gorzo's eyes were just as wide as mine, quivering with shock as a gurgling noise bubbled in the back of his throat. The stiletto heel pierced through his right cheek and could be seen dripping through his open mouth. A red trail marked a line down his neck— as if telling me to go for his jugular next— and seeped slowly into his shirt. The cigar had fallen from his mouth, continuing to smolder by itself on the floor.
Yes I realize the whole part of this situation is rather cliché… sorry I'm not very creative XD Thanks to all my readers who are still following this story and to any new ones who may stumble upon it :) 3
