I refuse to put a disclaimer here cause everyone should be bright enough to know that I don't own Naruto. I'm pretty sure that's why this is called FANfiction.
├Part Twenty-Nine┤
"You aren't giving me all you've got!" The silver haired man in front of me said, a smirk evident on his face. He seemed as though he thought this was a waste.
"Because I don't want to," I replied angrily, "I see no point."
He pushed the circular glasses up his nose, making them flash in the light, "You have to train. Training leads to getting stronger," he said as we stood about five yards apart.
I rolled my pure black eyes and gave him an annoyed look, "But you see, I have no motivation," I said, "Since that's lacking, I don't feel like it."
He still had that damn amused look on his face, something I hated deeply, "Orochimaru is going to be very angry with you," he said, "But if it's motivation you need, then I think I have something that might interest you."
I looked at him skeptically, "And what would that be?" I asked, secretly hoping for one thing, knowing he wouldn't grant that one wish.
"Teaching you how to swim," he said, that amused smirk only growing. I hoped his soul would rot slowly in hell.
I tried not to show it but my eyes widened slightly, "But it's impossible for people in my family to learn how to swim. I thought you knew all about me and my background by now," I said while glaring at him, "That's the only weakness in my family."
"True," he said, "I have looked up your background and I now know how everyone in your family died, most of them that way, their names and the ages they died. So I know everything about you and your family."
I rolled my eyes again, as it seemed only that annoyed him in the slightest, "You don't know everything about me," I replied bitterly, "Me as an individual, no. My background, probably."
"I don't bother with useless personal information," Kabuto said with a wave of his hand, "But anyways, back on topic, I know one way for you to learn to swim."
I raised an eyebrow, "And how is that?" I asked.
He shrugged, "Motivation enough? If you can eventually get two objects from me," he said, "Then I'll teach you. Everyday the two objects change."
I nodded, "So what are the two objects?" I asked, growing slightly impatient at this bastard.
He tapped the metal frames of his glasses, "My glasses and the tie that keeps my hair together," he said, his equally black eyes boring into mine tauntingly.
"Deal," I said while yawning, "So all this just to learn how to swim…this is so stupid."
"Not motivation enough?" he asked with an eyebrow raised. Learning to swim wasn't the thing I wanted most though…Although he'd never allow my wish anyways.
"Yeah," I said, thinking his offer through quickly in my head. It would be wonderful if I could swim…since it seemed as though I kept finding myself in the water anyways, despite all my attempts to stay away from it.
"Then come at me with all you've got!" he exclaimed while throwing two kunai with exploding tags on them at me.
"Is that the best you can do?" I asked while jumping away from them, my hands glowing a dark purple this time. The marks that covered my arms moved toward my hand, causing this 'glow' affect.
The one wish I really wanted was to see Sasuke. I hadn't seen him in over a month now and all I've been doing was crappy training that I didn't care for.
I feel as if my life is being drained from me, ever so slowly. I'm never happy anymore, barely even pissed. It took a lot to get me angry, really.
Jumping through the small bit of forest that surrounded us, I tried to sense Kabuto's chakra. We had moved many times, the reason behind this was still unknown to me.
"You'll need to do better than that!" he yelled from above me. I looked up in time to see him coming down at me so I quickly jumped out of the way.
"Shut up," I said while yawning, "If you didn't wake me up so damn early I wouldn't be like this. Didn't get much sleep considering the time I got to bed."
"If I could guess, I'd say it isn't sleep deprivation that is side tracking you," he said, that idiotic smirk still on his face, "I'd say it was something else."
I rolled my eyes, "Oh really? And what would that be?" I asked while suppressing another yawn, "Maybe it's your face that's side tracking me, God what the hell did you DO to yourself?"
The good thing? Getting that stupid smirk off his face.
The bad? Getting attacked full force.
I quickly pulled myself up on the branch above me and jumped away. He was quick on my tail. I threw a couple kunai randomly behind me with exploding tags on them.
Then I threw a couple that looked ordinary…until I clapped my hands and they went boom!
Ok so maybe this was amusing me a little too much…I'm not a sadist! I'm just really happy that it went boom…and hoping that he'd die but that's just a bit too much to wish on.
He came out of the smoke that explosion had made, looking pretty beat up but nothing serious. He stood there coughing just for a couple of seconds before his hand had a green aura around it.
My eyes widened, "You aren't going to…" was all I said as I back flipped out of the way and onto another branch.
"You want me to mess around with your face?" he asked, "I could change it very easily for you."
And so he came at me. It wasn't like him to get so angry…but I've been training with him for a month so I know how to tick him off by NOW at least.
Yep, my specialty.
