Chapter Two
"Destiny! Bring the wine!" Ranef yelled as the ninjas assembled in the dining room.
"I had her prepare a special feast for you, I hope you enjoy it..."
Destiny walked in followed by a bunch of serving maids carrying large pitchers.
"Good, you may now be seated where you wish," Ranef said.
She looked around, and she saw no empty place. Looks like I'm eating in the kitchen...
"Destiny!" She turned around and saw Orochimaru waving her over, "there's a seat right next to me..."
She walked over to him and sat down, "thank god... all the dogs eat in the kitchen..."
Orochimaru laughed, "well then it's a good thing I saved this seat for you..."
"Oh really? Thank you very much," she blushed as she looked down, "no one has ever done anything like that for me before..."
Orochimaru's smiled disappeared, "what do you mean?"
"Well, I don't really have any friends, so no one has done anything nice for me before, except you, this is the second time you've done something nice for me."
"Surly you have at least one friend..."
"No. I've never had the time to make any. Oh well, it doesn't matter, you should eat, you'll probably need your strength!" She started cutting a piece of meat and the sad depressed look on her face was gone.
Orochimaru looked at her face, trying to read some emotion, but he found none. What she had said disturbed him. How can someone go on without a comrade or friend. Even him, Orochimaru, had Kabuto. He shook his head, it doesn't matter... Hours later
"That was a very excellent feast, Destiny. I'm glad you didn't screw that up!"
Destiny just stood and bowed, "is there anything else you will be wishing, my lord?"
"Sing."
"Excuse me?"
"Entertain us, sing."
"B-but my skills do not revolve around entertainment, I am your councilor not-"
"Are you telling me that you wont?" Dead silence filled the room.
"O-of course I will..." she nervously looked around, "I only know one song though."
"Fine, sing it."
She cleared her throat; "Celestial being radiant blue, A peaceful, powerful, sorrowful hue Testify the ancient art, Hold the truths within the heart Ever watching lightning fast, 'Round the moon and from the past Intertwine the bands of fate Never stop at locked gate Ethereal daughter of starlight wait."
As the notes carried out, the room froze. Her voice was so beautiful, and her eyes, they showed so much emotion, the audience was on the brink of tears.
After what seemed like an eternity of silence, Orochimaru started clapping, which got the entire room to clap and cheer. Lord Ranef continued to stare at her. His wife was gone on a nice little vacation, and though he did love her, he was finding Destiny quite... attractive.
"Excuse me, lord Ranef..." he turned around to see a tall pale man with dark hair was trying to speak to him. It was one of the ninjas from the sound village.
"Yes, what is it."
"I wish to speak matters about your councilor..."
"Destiny? What do you want with her?"
"The same thing you want..."
"What do you mean!?"
"I know you lust after her, it's written all over your face!"
"W-what are you going to do about it?"
"Give her to me, and I will say nothing."
"Ha! It's my word over yours, and I am the lord!"
"Yes... but I found this book lying around..." Orochimaru pulled out a small leather book, "and it has quite a lot of information in it... like your plan to assassinate Hokage of the leaf village..."
"I... I'll give you anything you want!"
"Then give her to me!"
"Very well, you may have her, tonight, she'll be in your chamber I swear it."
"Good... if you don't mind, I will keep this book for a while, just in case..." and Orochimaru was out of sight.
Special thanks to my friend Deanna, she made the little song that Destiny sung. It's actually an acrostic poem of my name, isn't it cool!?!?!?
