Sorry I haven't posted in awhile, hopefully the next chapter won't be such a long wait.
I don't own Naruto.
Warnings: I don't have a Beta so I apologize for all grammatical errors.
Please read and review
The sound of breaking glass echoed throughout the gloomy castle, only mildly drowning out the screams of pain.
"Sounds like your master just got some bad news." Karin commented as she continued to skim through the latest batch of scrolls that had been uncovered.
"Stupid man, does he think I want to spend hours picking up glass and doesn't he know how hard it is to get blood stains off of a marble floor, some stains just won't come off." Kabuto answered flipping through his own batch.
"Maybe you should put your foot down and tell him to take a pill or something; he has us working like dogs looking for something that probably doesn't exist."
"Why don't you tell him, Karin, that you think he should chill." Kabuto stated.
"What and get turned into his next lab rat, cause he's in one of his bipolar PMS moods, no thank you, besides he's your master I'm just visiting." Karin finished rummaging through the box.
"Now you're just visiting, when you're giving the staff orders you sound like you own the place."
"It doesn't matter what you say Kabuto there is no way I'm talking to your creepy boss when he's in one of his moods." Karin began to complain only to stop when her eyes fell on an ancient text.
"Oh my god, come to mama you beautiful thing." She cooed making Kabuto's heart speed up, could they have finally found the information they needed to make Orochimaru happy.
"What is it Karin? What did you find?" Kabuto began excitement running through his veins.
"Kabuto! Get in here and save me from imbeciles" Orochimaru's voice vibrated throughout the castle.
"Seems like your master is calling," Karin chuckled following Kabuto down towards the throne room.
"Explain it to me again, and this time pretend I'm dumb and need small words; how is it that you and your squad not only came up empty handed but also got beat by wolves." Orochimaru began pacing in front of his team captain. "They're wolves nothing more than stupid animals, what did they lift their legs and piss on you, I know it was the fleas that did you in. Now tell me why I shouldn't rip you apart for disgracing the vampire race."
"My apologizes my lord, the wolves were more formable than previously thought and your pet demons did nothing to help the situation"
"My demons as you call them where on an important mission not there to protect you from wolves!" Orochimaru screamed throwing another vase at the vampire in front of him who barely ducked in time.
"My Lord, maybe you should calm down before you destroy the entire castle." Kabuto pointed out.
"Morons, I'm surrounded by morons, how hard is it to find one little scroll?"
"Karin found something in one of the boxes." Kabuto began trying to calm Orochimaru down before he had to spend the rest of the day trying to get blood off the marble floor.
"Really, Karin what did you find, was it finally my scroll, I think I might love you right now."
"What scroll, oh that scroll hell no I found something better than that." Karin began twirling around with glee.
"What could possibly be better than the scroll I'm looking for, there is nothing that would make me feel better than that." Orochimaru answered confusion in his voice.
"Make you feel better, I think you misunderstand I found something to make my dreams come true not yours, finally Sasuke will be mine." Karin smirked looking at a pale Kabuto.
"I found an old scroll that contains a powerful love spell, once I get it right Sasuke-kun will fall madly in love with me and we'll have little Sasuke pooh babies and live happily ever after." Karin sighed with little hearts in her eyes.
"You wish freak, there's no way Sasuke will ever fall in love with you, regardless of what love spell you find," came the mocking reply from the door.
"Shut up Suigetsu, nobody cares what you think,"
"Both of you be quiet, Sasuke where is my slayer, I see you and your team are back but I don't see my slayer did you already deposit him in my room." Orochimaru asked with his hopes high.
"Not really, my guess is your slayer is probably dead, bleed out somewhere; it seems he would rather stab himself and Sasuke here to avoid coming anywhere near you." Suigetsu replied.
"WHAT! I send you to do a simple job, just bring back one little slayer, that's all you had to do and you let him die on you."
"First of all, maybe if you had told us everything from the beginning we would have been better prepared instead of keeping information from us to pay us less than what the mission was really worth."
"Suigetsu, that's enough, there is no reason to provoke Orochimaru further."
"But Sasuke, he kept information from us and almost got us all killed."
"Kabuto, what is this white haired freak talking about, did you not give them all the information we had on the slayer."
"Of course my lord, everything we had on the abilities of the slayer clan, plus those of their weapons and any weaknesses." Kabuto answered fearing that there would be no way to prevent the floor from becoming soaked in blood after all.
"Well, apparently you forgot to mention that the slayer was a mutt, only half of his DNA came from the slayer clan, the other half gave him the ability to teleport, did you know that, that he could teleport wherever he wanted to, making it damn hard to catch him." Suigetsu sneered.
"That's impossible, the slayers were too proud, there is no way they would allow their bloodline to mix with anything else, especially something from the other world, you must be mistaken there is no way my slayer could have the ability to teleport."
"Suigetsu is right, the slayer was able to teleport, it came second nature to him, just like calling forth his weapon, so the question becomes what other species is you're slayer made up of." Sasuke asked quietly.
"Did you see any telling signs on him?"
"If you're asking if he had any visible tails, horns or any other demon trait, the answer is no and he didn't have glimmering wings that sprouted as he flew away and before you ask no your slayer didn't suddenly turn into a women, so we are at a loss as to what other DNA swims in your so called slayer." Sasuke finished as he sidestepped Karin who was about to latch on to his arm.
"That's not even the worst part." Suigetsu whined as Karin bumped into him.
"No characteristics from any of them, I don't know any other species that can teleport, the ability being rare, it's not like he could be…"
"Kabuto, you remember that project we were working on many years ago, the one that was a complete failure and I ordered you to destroy all the samples and test subjects." Orochimaru turned to stare at his long time assistant.
"Vaguely," was the whispered reply.
"You did destroy all the test subjects, right? There isn't anything you didn't tell me."
"Well, I'm almost sure I destroyed everything you told me too, it was such a long time ago, that it really shouldn't even matter now my lord, how about I go and get us something nice and fresh to drink. I think our delivery guy just brought in some juicy farmhands I think I'll go bring you one." Kabuto squeaked out at he ran for the door.
"This cannot be happening, how is this even possible?"
"Okay we have no idea what you are talking about, it's probably some weird vampire thing, but we would like to get back to the fact that you withheld information and nearly got Sasuke killed." Suigetsu interrupted Orochimaru.
"I did not withhold any information, I had no idea the slayer was anything other than a slayer, and as soon as I get my hands on Kabuto I'll figure out if what I'm thinking is even possible, however if the slayer does have the DNA I think he has it's more imperative than ever to find that scroll and that you bring me that slayer if he is still alive."
"What about the other issue?" Sasuke began getting tired of being in the same room with such loud individuals.
"Did you know that the slayer was the alpha's mate and that the wolves would fight tooth and nail to keep him, is that why you sent us and not your own people?"
"Where could that scroll be, maybe it's… wait what did you say? The slayer is who's what, I couldn't have heard right, the slayer my slayer, is that flea infested alpha's mate, that can't be possible the universe cannot hate me like this." Orochimaru complained wiping manly tears away.
"Kabuto!"
"Yes my lord, did you know that that stupid alpha is my little slayer's mate how the hell are we going to get my slayer away from those stupid animals? And don't think I've forgotten about our other conversation, but seeing as it's in the past I'll deal with it and you later."
"That's even if the slayer is alive, my guess is he died before anyone could get to him, even if they did find him the damage was too much to repair, so this whole conversation and your scroll have become a mute point." Suigetsu stated elbowing Karin in the ribs as she made another attempt to get to Sasuke.
"Everybody out, I need to be alone and think," Orochimaru ordered sitting down on his throne as he watched everybody leave. "Not you Kabuto."
"Tell me Kabuto, do you think the universe hates me? I mean all I want is world domination is that too much to ask for? I don't think so, but instead I get incompetent lackeys, a sex crazy demon that can't even see that the object of her obsession is into guys and wouldn't touch her with a ten foot pole, a loud mouth experiment gone wrong, one that doesn't say more than two words when he's normal and who could bring down my entire castle when angered and a brooding "idol" who thinks he's too good to be ordered around."
"My lord, I don't think the universe thinks in terms of love and hate."
"Oh shut up, of course it does, why else would she not only turn my precious little slayer into a mutt, and don't think I've forgotten that you might have actually resurrected a long lost royal bloodline that could possibly take my seat on this throne, but then made that same slayer that I need for my plan to work the mate of not only an alpha, but of that demon alpha do you have any idea how hard it's going to be to get my slayer away from that wolf; and to make matters worse I don't even know if my slayer is alive, tell me again how the universe does not hate me."
