Our Forbidden Love
Chapter 14: Sharingan vs. Sharingan Aftermath
A/N: I hated how I first did this chapter. It felt rushed and incomplete, so I'm doing a repost of it.
Otokagure, some time later
Sasuke woke to the smell of antiseptics and looked around the hospital room he was in. He was in one of the ERs with different machines monitoring his health. He looked to his right and saw a small white snake in a liquid filled jar.
He cocked his eyebrow at the creature which was swimming pleasantly around the jar. The door opened and Sasuke's attention was switched to the nurse that walked in. "Good evening Otokage-sama." She greeted. Sasuke nodded in response and looked at her nametag.
It read "Azula". Sasuke lifted himself onto his elbows to better position himself. Azula came over helping him. She fluffed his pillows and adjusted his blankets smiling sweetly when he thanked her. "Azula, where are Hinata and the girl that was with us?" he asked.
Azula frowned and turned her head away from Sasuke. "I don't think I should be the one to tell you this Otokage-sama." She replied softly before quickly leaving the room. Sasuke was left in the room annoyed at his unanswered question.
He lay in the bed, his mind wandering at what had happened. He remembered fighting his brother and finishing the fight with one of his most powerful jutsu, Kirin. After that everything was black. He would wait till the doctor came in then call for Suigetsu to explain what had transpired during his unconsciousness.
It was at that moment the door opened again and in walked Yumi. She was dressed in a hospital gown like Sasuke. "Otokage-sama, thank Kami you're safe." She whispered softly walking across the room to one of the chairs meant for visitors.
Sasuke watched as she sat down and eyed her. The two sat in silence for a few minutes before Sasuke spoke. "Yumi, what happened? Where is Hinata?" he asked the young girl. Yumi clenched her fist and lowered her face as tears began to fall. "Forgive me Sasuke!" she cried out.
Sasuke's eyes widened. Yumi always used a honorific when addressing him. Something was most definitely wrong. Using his arms Sasuke pushed himself to the edge of the bed; lowering his feet to the ground. Yumi rushed over to Sasuke as he stumbled out the bed.
He put his hands on her shoulders holding onto her for support. "What happened? Answer me Yumi." Sasuke commanded Yumi continued to cry. "Hinata-sama, she's……she's………she's been kidnapped………" Yumi replied as the tears continued to fall.
Sasuke felt his breath catch in his throat. He took time to breathe gasping slightly for air. "Tell me what happened. All of it." He stated monotonously. Yumi nodded as she began her story.
Forest Area (Flash Back)
Yumi looked up dazed at the carnage around her. "Hinata! Sasuke! Where are you?!" she cried out forgetting all honorifics as she looked around for the two ravens. There was a rustle to her left and Yumi weakly pulled herself up leaning against a nearby tree for support. Her left arm was broke and her legs felt like lead.
"Rika" Yumi said in her mind. "I'm trying as hard as I can to heal you with my chakra but my reserves are running low." The cat demon said quickly anticipating the question. Yumi continued to look around as the rustling sound got closer. Jakotsu walked through the underbrush with Hinata over his left shoulder.
His tail was half way blown off and his right arm was a stump at the shoulder. He glared at Yumi and smiled evilly. "Now it's time to finish what we started." He stated throwing Hinata against a broken tree. Yumi growled and launched herself at Jakotsu.
The man-beast chuckled and grabbed Yumi in mid-air twirling around and throwing the Jinchkriki to the ground. Yumi struggled to get back up but, was stomped back into the ground by Jakotsu's foot. "You aren't going anywhere. Not till I've had my fun with you." He chuckled deeply, stomping Yumi's back mercilessly.
The brunette grit her teeth in pain as she was continually assaulted trying to draw on Rika's strength. "Jakotsu, that's enough!" a voice said. Yumi looked up too see a blond man holding Hinata bridal style. Jakotsu sneered at the man. "You may be the nine-tailed container and the Hokage but, that doesn't mean you can boss me around just because you and our organization have an alliance." Jakotsu replied challengely.
Naruto grinned foxily rushing forwards he sliced through Jakotsu. The man-beast only had time to gurgle before his body dropped into pieces. Naruto smirked and looked down at Yumi. "Tell Sasuke that Hinata is mine. If he wants her he'll have to get through me." He instructed before flashing away. Yumi lifted herself weakly stretching out a hand before collapsing.
Otokagure
"When I came too, I was in the hospital." Yumi finished. "I learned that Orochimaru had taken control of your body but this time you were able to expel him from your body before he could do much harm." She informed the downcast Sasuke.
The raven-haired male continued to look down at his hands. "How long have I been out" he asked. Yumi sighed softly "You've been asleep for about four days." She answered. "Suigetsu, Kiba, and Neji have each already formed their own retrieval squad to rescue Hinata-sama." She told Sasuke.
The Otokage looked up at her and nodded. "Well Naruto has issued me a challenge and I intend to take it." He stated standing up Yumi nodded and looked at the door before pulling out two piles of folded clothes from underneath her grown. "I knew this would happen so I had Kiba bring us some clothes. Your rescue squad is waiting in the forest for us."
She told Sasuke handing him his pile. Sasuke nodded and took his clothes turning around to change. Yumi turned around as well and the two changed into their ninja attire, throwing their gowns to the ground. Sasuke snapped on his wristbands as he finished dressing. Y
umi was putting her hair up to keep it out her face. The two ninja looked at each other looked at each other nodding before jumping out the window. Alright Naruto, I'm coming for you. Sasuke thought as he and Yumi jumped from roof to roof heading towards the forest.
Konoha (Three days prior)
Hinata woke with a start looking around the room she was in. She was bare except for the gown that covered her body and underneath a lavish comforter. The comforter had her clan symbol on the center of it and she could sense her father nearby.
She slid out the bed putting on a nearby robe wrapping it around her. Hinata walked out the room into the hallway and that's when she realized that she had actually been in her father's room. She walked down the hallway heading for her sister's room when she heard voices coming from one of the rooms nearby. Creeping next to the door she placed her ear against it to listen.
"I brought her back, not your people. She is my wife and if what you and the doctors said is true then she is pregnant with MY child." Naruto's voice said. There was a grunt and then her father spoke. "Be that as it may, you failed to prevent her kidnapping at the hands of the Uchiha and there is also the suspicion that you have committed adultery." Hiashi replied.
Hinata felt two surges of chakra as both Naruto and her father glared each other down. "This isn't over Hiashi. I'll be back" Naruto vowed as he walked over to the door. Hinata gasped and quickly ran down the hall turning the corner. She heard the door open and close as Naruto walked out.
He was soon followed by her father who came down the hallway stopping at the corner. "Don't worry Hinata. I won't allow him to touch you again." Hiashi said before turning and walking back the way he came. Hinata sighed and slid down the wall pulling her knees to her chest. "Sasuke" she whispered softly lowering her face to her thighs.
Hokage Tower
Naruto paced back and forth around his office waiting for his doppelganger. The clone jumped through the open window with a look of disgust on his face. "We have to do something about the Hyugas. They are the only ones who haven't been injected with the serum." The clone told Naruto.
The blonde nodded and continued to pace the office. "I know this but they are among some of the most elite and dangerous ninja the village has. It wont be easy but I'll think of something." He said to himself as the clone puffed away. Naruto sat at his desk and placed his hands together resting his chin on top of them. Sasuke, Neji, Kiba. Come to your doom. He thought to himself.
Otokagure (Two days prior)
Suigetsu, Neji, Kiba, Karin, and Tenten sat in the war room looking at each other. "It's obvious what we have to do." Kiba stated. "We all know what Sasuke would do" he went on. Neji nodded "That's the problem. Everyone knows what Sasuke would do. It's possible that Naruto has set a trap for us, knowing that we would go to rescue Hinata."
Tenten looked between the two men. "We can't just leave Hinata with Naruto, Neji." She stated "and Neji is right Kiba. We have to tread carefully so we don't walk into a trap." Tenten continued shining light on both men's idea. Suigetsu stood up. "We'll form four different teams then. Myself, Neji, Kiba, and Sasuke will lead the teams in a rescue attempt."
Karin cocked an eyebrow at Suigetsu. "Sasuke is unconscious. How can he lead a team?" she asked the sharp-toothed ninja. Suigetsu looked out the window. "We've known Sasuke a long time Karin. We both know that the first thing he'll do when he wakes is to try and save Hinata. Its best to already have a team ready for him for when he does wake." He explained. Tenten looked at Suigetsu with an angry frown. "What about me? I want to go to save Hinata too." She told him.
Neji grabbed Tenten's hands holding them tenderly. "No Tenten." He told her. "You have to think of the children. You're pregnant. If you went you'd not only be endangering your life but theirs as well." He explained to her.
Kiba and Suigetsu nodded in agreement. "Karin will take care of you while we are gone." Suigetsu told Tenten. "I will do no such thing!" Karin exclaimed standing. "I am your wife. I will follow-"……"Karin I know you're four months pregnant" Suigetsu interrupted the red head.
Karin lowered her head. "How did you find out?" she asked softly. Suigetsu shrugged "The doctor called for you when you had been out on a mission. You had missed your checkup." He replied. He walked over to Karin and hugged her closely. "Stay here with Tenten. Take care of each other and watch over the village." He whispered into her ear. The two broke their embrace and turned to the other three ninja.
"We have our plan. Let's get ready. We leave at dawn tomorrow." Suigetsu informed them. Kiba nodded. "Alright, I have to go check on Yumi-chan before we leave. Let's go Akamaru." He said as he jumped out the window onto Akamaru's back. Neji and Tenten nodded and said farewell to Suigetsu and Karin as they excused themselves from the room.
Otokagure Hospital
Kiba ran up the side of the hospital climbing through the window of Yumi's room. "Kiba-kun!" the girl exclaimed from her bed excitedly. Kiba walked over to Yumi kissing her lips softly. "Heya Yumi. We have come up with a plan to get Hinata back." He informed her. "I'm coming with you Kiba." Yumi said quickly. "No Yumi, it'll be too dangerous.
Yumi's eyes hardened. "I'm coming with you." She stated with a determined look in her eyes. "I'd love to see you just try and stop me" she challenged. Kiba stared at her with an equally hard look. The two of them had a stare down but it was Kiba who turned away first.
"I guess it cant be helped." He said smirking slightly. "Kiba, I need you to get me and Sasuke some clothes." Yumi informed the Inuzuka. Kiba nodded. "Make sure to tell him that we already have a team set up for him. Suigetsu, Neji, and I are leaving tomorrow." He stated as he paced the room.
"Don't worry Kiba. We'll get Hinata-sama back." Yumi reassured him. Kiba looked at Yumi and smiled broadly. "Of course we will." He said winking. Kiba walked to the window ledge. "I'll be back tomorrow morning with your clothes." He told Yumi before leaping from the window.
Setsuna's Hideout (One day prior)
Setsuna stood and looked at the twins. "We'll have to regroup with the rest of the members and rethink our strategy to obtaining the tailed beast." He told them. "The closest safe spot is in Konoha. We're allies with the current Hokage there." He informed the girls.
Caroline and Carolyn nodded and finished clearing up the hideout, making it look as if it hadn't been used. "How do you think the leader will react?" Carolyn asked her twin. "He's gonna be pissed the fuck off." Caroline replied.
Setsuna pulled off the bandages wrapped around him throwing them to the ground. He put on his shirt and coat leaving the coat unbuttoned. The trio gathered together at the top of the hill before walking towards Konoha in silence.
Konoha (Present Day)
Looking over the village into the late rising sun, Naruto, Sakura, and Ino stood on top the Hokage Monument. "Here he comes girls." Naruto stated grinning maniacally. "What do you say we give him a special Kage greeting?" he asked them. Ino and Sakura smirked to each other jumping from the monument. "Alright Sasuke, come and get her." Naruto said to himself.
Sasuke, Neji, Kiba, Suigetsu, and Yumi were all in position outside the village. Sasuke looked at the ninety-nine men and women who had joined them. "I'm not going to lie to you. Not all of us will be returning from this mission alive. I understand that you all have a certain loyalty to me but I wont look down on you if you decide to go back." He told the ninja and kunoichi.
They all looked at Sasuke not moving an inch. Sasuke scoffed and smirked slightly. "Alright then, go to your team leaders and spilt up. We'll move when I give the signal." He instructed.
Suigetsu, Neji, and Kiba disappeared along with seventy-five of the other ninja going to their strategized positions leaving Sasuke and Yumi with the remaining twenty-four ninja. Sasuke looked at the Hokage Monument and clenched his fist. I'm coming Hinata. Hold on.
A/N: And that's the end. I like this chapter better than the other one. It flows more smoothly in my opinion. Anyways make sure to review.
