Desclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of it's characters. They belong to their creator, Masashi Kishimoto.

I have a few things to say:

**Sorry it's taken so long to post the next chapter, I had a bit of writers block. Now it's more of a writer's rock; it's in my shoe and still bugging me however it will be taken care of.

I got a flame today. I'm sure I'm not the first author to tell this to flamers and I certainly won't be the last but If you don't like yaoi DON'T READ IT AND THEN FLAME ME FOR YOUR MISERY! I'm not interested in people whining about how gross yaoi is, I don't care what they think. I wrote this story for yaoi fans.

Love is love, don't be a jerk.**

Anyways! Onto the story!

WARNING YAOI!

No SasuNAru in this chapter but

Some ItaNaru (for spice :P)

Title: Fangs of life

Chappie 4: Misfortune

Naruto stood in a tunnel filled with water up to his knees. Before him was a large gate with a single paper seal that kept it from opening. The seal glowed eerily. Naruto instantly recognized this place, it was where the nine tails was kept within him. He had been here before when pervert Senin had shoved him off the edge of a canyon in the Konoha forest. He shuddered from the dark energies that poured from between the bars.

"Well, well, look who it is…" Came a snide, evil voice from the dark abyss behind the gates. "My snack sized host." Two large, red slitted eyes appeared before Naruto, the Kyubi snickered.

"What's so funny, you stupid fox?" Naruto snarled at him.

"This is a very bad time for you to be unconscious… Right now, your physical body is so vulnerable and helpless. You can't fight attackers off while you're here."

"So?" He snapped defiantly, Naruto was sick of all the trouble and irritation this fox has caused him. HE was the one who had made him grow up without parents or friends, and HE was the reason why he had gotten targeted by Akatsuki.

"… Are you that dense that you don't realize that you have been taken far away from your village? You are now in the hands of your enemies and soon… I will be free."

Naruto raised his eyebrows. "What are you talking about!?"

"Tsk, tsk, such a dense little host…" A horrifying sneer gleamed in the eerie light of the seal, Naruto shuddered. "Don't you remember anything? The storm? The intruder?"

Naruto's eyes widened as the memories came back to him. Suddenly, he felt a sickening feeling in his stomach. "Crap… I am in some serious trouble…" he muttered.

The fox watched his little vessel gleefully, thrilled by his newfound misery. Crawling closer to the gates, he made eye contact with Naruto "And when they release me," He said with a bitter tone, "the first thing I'm going to go after, is your stupid little village. It's time it was wiped off the face of this planet."

Naruto was about to say something back when the room around him was enveloped in darkness. He felt stinging sensations all over his body, as he opened his eyes to find himself propped up against a tree, his wrists and legs were bound by thick rope. He was covered with gashes and bruises, and it was nearly impossible to breath. He looked down at his foot, which throbbed painfully within his shoe. It was twisted out at a strange angle since it was broken, and had swollen up to twice the size of his other foot.

"So you're awake now…good."

Naruto tensed up as his azure eyes met with the deadly red Sharingan of Itachi, who squatted before him. Naruto glared at his captor.

"I was worried that you wouldn't wake up before Kisame came back with herbs for your wounds…" Itachi stated calmly.

"Let me go!" Naruto snapped, he struggled against his bindings but winced as his body protested with pain.

"You shouldn't squirm so much, you're just making yourself suffer. Your life has been full of pain and sadness, why are you adding to it? If you be patient it'll stop."

"What do you mean?" Naruto gave Itachi a quizzical look, 'What the hell is he chattering about?'

"Once we extract the demon fox from you and place it into a sacrifice were it's spirit can take over… that's when your suffering will end."

"What's the point of getting the kyubi a sacrifice? It already has a host!" Naruto glared at Itachi.

"It was my special request that you continue to live." He came closer to Naruto's face, his red eyes burrowing into Naruto's azure ones.

"Why?" Naruto asked, intimidated by how close his enemy was from him.

Itachi leaned in further and pressed his lips against Naruto's. The blonde boy's eyes grew wide as he tensed up. His mind scrambled to figure out what Itachi's intentions were. Why was he kissing him? A few moments passed before Itachi broke the kiss, he smirked at the stunned look on Naruto's face..

"After the Nine Tails is extracted…" Itachi said quietly, "You'll belong to me."
