Sorry that I haven't updated in a while, lots of stuff happened this summer. Anyway, here is the craptastic chapter five, you may now commence to leap for joy. Yay.
Chapter Five"Now that that is over with, we must be wed immediately," Kabuto said as he took Catherine's hand, "I'm not letting any other man touch her!"
Orochimaru rolled his eyes, "don't worry, you wont get executed."
Kabuto shook his head, "I'm not taking any chances! Why, just now someone can be watching my raven planning to take her away! I say nay! I got her first!"
Catherine just stood there with her face to the ground. This is bloody embarrassing... she thought.
"Oh, come now, I don't think anyone else is as creepy as this person," Destiny said, pointing to the man on the floor, "you can take it easy, this is a small town, how many pedophiles could there be?"
"I don't care. She's mine!" Kabuto wrapped his arm around her waste, "let any man TRY and take her from me!"
"That's so sweet!" Destiny said as she turned to Orochimaru, "you used to be like that around me you know."
Orochimaru sighed, "I still am, but Catherine's the one I'm more worried about."
"I thought we took care of that problem, she's ok, and about to marry Kabuto."
"That's what I'm worried about. Kabuto is... well, I guess kind of like a gypsy. He roams around and goes wherever he feels like, does whatever he feels like, and does it whenever her feels like it. Catherine's not like that. I don't want him to hurt her, or break her heart. Hell, he might leave for a couple of years then come back like nothing's happened. He might get tired of Catherine, then find another woman then break her heart and... well, I just don't want that to happen."
Kabuto frowned, "what are we whispering about over there?" He asked.
"Oh, nothing!" Destiny said as she inched away, "oh look, I should go and cook something!"
Orochimaru rolled his eyes, "thank you Destiny for not acting suspicious," he turned to Kabuto, "anyway, like I said earlier. You hurt her, you die."
Kabuto sighed, "aye, aye, change the record already..."
Catherine smiled, "don't worry father! He won't, he told me so!"
Orochimaru just stared at her, "... and you believed him because...?"
"Because he said so."
Orochimaru pulled Kabuto aside, "she is too innocent for you. Now, swear that you will devote your life to her, and don't you dare hurt her in ANY way."
Kabuto put a serious face on, "I swear that I would rather take an ax to my own arm then hurt her. I am disappointed in your faith in me, Orochimaru. I may be young, and inexperienced in the ways of marriage, but I am no clod. And I know what you think, but you are wrong. I am not just marrying her for my benefit. If that were so I wouldn't care about her being kidnapped and I would woo some other girl with empty promises," he shook his head, "you haven't changed that much since when you were evil. You are selfish and not trusting at all, and I must say that for Catherine to turn out like she is now while being raised by you, Destiny must be one hell of a saint."
Catherine walked up to them as soon as Kabuto finished, "what's wrong? You guys look so serious."
Kabuto smiled, "nothing is wrong, we were simply discussing matters that no longer need discussing!"
Catherine cocked her head to the side, "ner?" (A/N: the pathetic thing is that I actually say that.)
Kabuto laughed, "come now, I wish to go to the market with you to buy you a gift."
"You don't need to buy me anything! Spend your money on something more important," she said.
"My raven, what could me more important then you?" He kissed her forehead and they walked out the door.
Destiny opened the door that led to the kitchen, "ooo, he burned you bad."
Orochimaru shook his head, "it's true though, what he said. Argh! I hate it when he does that!"
Destiny sighed as Orochimaru walked past her, "now he's gonna be grumpy all day..." she looked to the ground at the half dead Watashi Anatawa, "and what the hell am I supposed to do with you?"
Late in the afternoon
"I'm home!" Catherine said as she opened the door.
"Hello," Destiny cheerfully said as she put her book down.
"Good Afternoon," Kabuto bowed.
"So, what did you do?" She asked, eagerly waiting, sitting on the edge of her seat.
"We walked around the whole village," Catherine started, "he bought me so many things, I tried to stop him but-"
"What?!" Destiny asked shocked, "since when did a woman not accept gifts from her man! Gees! Let him buy as many things as possible now, because when you get older, he just turns fat and lazy and he doesn't even get off the couch to get some food."
Catherine giggled, "but still, he bought me really expensive things..."
"My raven! My dearest Catherine! You promised me that you wouldn't look at the price," Kabuto said with a pout on his face.
Catherine bowed her head, "sorry..."
Destiny sighed, "Orochimaru used to buy me really expensive things too. You know, he also saved me once from this really asshole of a king..."
"Mom, stop making up stuff for attention."
Kabuto shook his head, "It's true! Orochimaru told me about a beauty untold that he spied in the castle courtyard! I forgot, it was you wasn't it?"
"Oh my, did he really say untold beauty?"
Kabuto nodded, "yes, and then he told me his plan-" he stopped, looked at Catherine, then cleared his throat, "he then told me his plan on how he would gain your hand in marriage."
Destiny shook her head, "that was some plan..."
"Well, you know, he wasn't that good on showing emotions so he... well, you lived it."
"What? What happened?" Catherine asked.
"Nothing. He saved me from that stupid king and we fell in love," Destiny said.
Catherine shook her head, "there are probably more details then that, but I'll drop it."
"So anyway, what did you get?" Destiny asked excitedly.
The rest of the afternoon was spent admiring Kabuto's gifts. He even bought things for Destiny and Orochimaru.
