Chapter Five
"Destiny... Destiny, wake up," she felt a warm hand caress her face.
"No... tired..." she tried to turn over but she found that strong arms were holding her tightly.
"Come now, you mustn't be that tired... you've been sleeping all day," Orochimaru brushed her hair out of her face. She was very beautiful, and when he looked into her face, he couldn't help but feel something pulling at his heart. Destiny opened her eyes and yawned, "all day? Really?" Then she had a thoughtful look on her face, "well, I woke up this morning and then that happened, so I guess I did..." She stretched and then laid her head down on the pillow again, "wake me when night comes, ok Oro-kins."
Orochimaru's jaw dropped, "what did you just call me?"
Destiny opened her eyes again, "Oro-kins," she sat up to face him, then put her hands on his cheeks, "it's such a cute name!"
Orochimaru let her pinch his cheeks, "the name, but not me!"
"Of course! You're very cute, look at that face!" She turned his head so that he could face the mirror on the night stand across the room, and squished his face.
"I don't do cute!" He removed her hands, then laid her back on the bed, "but I will let you call me that if it makes you happy and keeps you quiet for a while."
Destiny's lips formed a pout, "you don't like it when I speak?"
"Not when you always talk about 'lord Ranef didn't have a right to give me to you,' or, 'I hate you, and you can never change that.' Believe it or not, I have feelings that can be hurt too..." He kissed her forehead.
"If you had feelings, you wouldn't make me do this!"
"Oh, enough with the complaints! Must every word from your lips be dripping with venom?" He pushed the blankets that were covering her chest off of her, "why can't you just wake up one morning and say 'good morning, master of which I adore, how can I please you today?' Or perhaps you can give me a simple kiss to wake me up in the mornings..." he kissed her neck.
"Well, 'master of which I adore,' I'm tired, and if you want pleasantry coming from these lips, then let me sleep!" She pulled the covers back over her head.
He just let out a long sigh, "very well, slave of which I have to please or else she'll start PMSing..."
"Oro! You're so mean!" She threw her pillow at him.
"Ah, so you wish to fight me again!"
"No, I wish to sleep!"
"I don't want you to!"
"I don't care!" She sat up again and wrapped her arms around him, "please, oh dear master? Please?" She started tracing her finger all over his chest, "it would mean so much to me..."
Orochimaru thought for a moment, letting her caress his smooth muscles, "I don't know..."
She started rubbing his leg, "I promise that such kindness will be greatly rewarded!"
"I will wake you up no later then night-fall, understand?"
Destiny smiled and nodded, "oh master!" She threw her arms around his neck, "you're the best master that I have ever had!" She kissed his cheek and fluffed up her pillow.
"Yes. I'm the best and the worst master that you have ever had..." he mumbled as he watched Destiny lay down.
All of a sudden she felt two arms wrapped around her, and felt Orochimaru's breath against her neck. She slowly turned around to face him, aaawwwww! He's so cute! Wait, this is Orochimaru I'm talking about... he... he's evil! She shook her head, then pulled the covers over her face so as not to look at him and be fooled by his looks.
A while later
"Destiny, get up now!" She felt the cover being pull off of her, and she slowly sat up.
"Is it nightfall already?" She asked, yawning.
"Not quite, but we must go now!" She felt something being wrapped around her.
"Orochimaru... what's going on?" She wiped the sleep from her eyes, "why are you dressing me?"
"I've taken all the things in your room. Go and check to see if I didn't miss anything."
Destiny did as she was told, and when she returned, she saw him carry plenty of bags.
"Take the last three bags then go to the stables. Get two horses ready, we are not coming back."
Destiny gave him a confused look but ran to the stables anyway.
She got her horse ready, then looked around for another horse.
"Ah, I bet Orochimaru will want you..." she moved to the stable of Ranef's most valued steed.
"Come now, Nasrudin, come...." she got him ready as well, and with perfect timing Orochimaru entered.
"Good, get on your horse, we will not stop until daybreak."
"But, the sun has not yet even fully gone down! How can you expect us to ride all night?"
"Don't argue with me. Get on your horse, or I will drag you by your hair."
Destiny climbed on her horse, "why must we be in such a hurry?"
"I have matters to attend to, and I think some of the chunin are on to me..."
Her jaw dropped, "you're not a chunin?"
"No, I am ten times more powerful. I just had the intent on posing as one of them to see the palace, and maybe kill Ranef..." he glanced at her, "and his councilor was famed for her beauty..."
"No I'm not!"
"You might not believe it because you were isolated from the outside world, but believe me. I wanted to try my best to have you as my own, but as you can see, I didn't have to..."
"Well, as you can see, that 'famed beauty' was nothing but a lie."
He frowned, "why do you say such a thing?"
"Obviously I'm not pretty at all. I... I'm not worth much, my talents, well, I don't have any, but what I can do is useless."
"Do not say that!" He mounted on his horse, "come we will talk as we ride."
"Very well."
They started galloping away, and when they were far enough from the castle, they slowed their horses down so that they could talk.
"Now, tell me, what do you mean when you say your talents are useless?"
"Well, the only things I can sort of do are writing poems and stories. That's it."
"That is a lie. First of all you can sing. Second, you are very beautiful, I have seen no other woman like you. And finally," a malicious grin spread on his face, "you have many talents once we get in bed...."
Destiny blushed at the second comment, but at the third, she nearly fell off her horse.
"First of all, I cannot sing. Second, I have seen piles in the stables more beautiful then me, and third," she stuck her nose in the air, "I don't do anything once we get in bed, you do everything."
"Oh, don't be so harsh... I say you have all those attributes, and that's what matters."
"Of course, 'master.'" She rolled her eyes.
"Don't do that! I have a good mind to beat you right now!"
"We can't stop till daybreak, so there."
"It's dark enough, no one will see us..." he stopped her horse.
"No, we must go!"
"I don't think so... you said that you would pay me for letting you sleep until night, so I think I want that payment now."
"Well you don't get it! I said nightfall and you woke me up before that, so you will get nothing from me!"
"Nothing willingly anyway!" He pulled her off her horse.
"Stop it! Ok, ok, I promise, when we get to your house or whatever, I will do whatever you tell me to, no bitching, no pouting, I will do anything!"
Orochimaru paused for a moment, "without bitching?"
"Yes, yes, without bitching," she rolled her eyes.
"Very well then! Off we go! We wouldn't want to be late!" Orochimaru but her back on her horse, then with all haste got back on his.
Great, how the hell am I going to get myself out of this one? Destiny thought.
"Destiny... Destiny, wake up," she felt a warm hand caress her face.
"No... tired..." she tried to turn over but she found that strong arms were holding her tightly.
