First Kiss--Chapter 29

"The journey of knowledge begins with ignorancy."

AN: Sorry for the delay, I went to Pennsylvania because of a death in the family. Oh yeah, and, -- means that a new scene started, the recent chapters probably made it hard to realize it.

"Wake up," said a voice. Sasuke's woke up, he shook his head as he opened his eyes. Soonichi stood in front of him. "You're in the Einizigartig, in a prison." he took out a piece of paper that was stuck in his sleeve. He started to read from it. "You will reside here for the next ten days before you are executed in front of the whole town. You will not leave the cell, talk to anyone outside your cell, and you will not get up from that chair. The only time you may move is when you go to your bunk, which is to your right. If you have to use the bathroom, you will be given two times a day to use it, it is behind you. In front of the bars of your cell is a red light, it will blink twice a day, indicating when you are allowed to use the bathroom. The only time you may talk is if you have a visitor. Get that?"

"Yes," said Sasuke. "I have a question."

"What is it?"

Sasuke looked down to his knees as he said, "Will I be able to move in the chair, like my arms and legs and such?"

"Just stay where you are, and you'll be fine. I'll come twice a day to give you breakfast and dinner. Goodbye." Soonichi walked to the right, and Sasuke sighed as he stared up at the ceiling.

'Is this it?' he thought. 'Am I going to die here?'

Naruto sighed as him and Hojo kept walking, "How long you think is left?" said Naruto. Hojo looked around, then bent down to the ground, he laughed.

"Look at this, its tiretracks, that means that the people that took Mr. Taguchi were in a carrage. We must be really close, because since we left, they were riding in the grass. They moved onto the dirt, assuming that we had lost them, and they hadn't got this way. Well. . .we must be close." He put his hand on the hilt of his sword. "Are you ready?"

"For what?"

"We're gonna run the rest of the way."

Sakura awoke, she sighed as she turned around and saw the carriage behind her. It was day now, a day after Sasuke had reached the Einizgartig. "Hey!" said Ino from the reigns of the second carriage.

"What time is it!?" shouted Sakura.

"About ten in the morning! Ask Mr. Tao how much longer we got left!" Sakura moved up into the seat part of the carriage.

"Mr. Tao?" she said to him.

He looked over to her and said, "Tell Ino to stop. We're there." Sakura flipped around.

"Ino! Stop! We're there!" Ino pulled back on the reings and slowly stopped, Mr. Tao followed her movements. Dust flew through the air as the carriages went to a hault. As the dust cleared Mr. Tao shouted for them to go to the woods.

Shino looked onto the path ahead of him, 'I dont get it. . .the village doesn't even seem close. . .' he then walked into the woods with the rest of the group.

"Okay!" said Mr. Tao. "We are here! The rest of the way will be brutal, and I'm not guarenteeing any of you with your lives. If you want to go back now. . .say it now." He looked around at all of them, they all gave their bravest faces. Mr. Tao smiled as he said, "Okay, here is the plan. We are going in, we're gonna create a distraction while a team of three go to the jail, which is in the middle of the town, and probably the biggest building there. Sasuke is in one of their cells. Team one, the distraction team, will consist of. . .volunteers?"

"I'll do it," said Shino.

". . .anyone else? We need three people at the minimum."

"I guess I'll do it as well. . ." said Shikamaru. "We dont really have any excellent fighters here, besides Shino. . .so. . .Shino, go with Mr. Tao. Me, Ino and Sakura will be the distra-" Sakura cut him off.

"No! I wanna see Sasuke! Take Hinata or something!" she shouted.

"Well I wanna see Naruto!" said Hinata. Sakura was speechless, she looked at Hinata and then gasped.

"Well. . ." anger resided again. "I havent seen Sasuke for like three years! You haven't seen Naruto for a day!"

". . ." Hinata gave Sakura an angry look and then sighed. She looked around and said, "Yes. . .it's a bit conceited. . .I'll stay behind. . ."

"So. . ." said Mr. Tao. "Me, Sakura, and Shino are going to Sasuke's cell, while Hinata, Ino, and Shikamaru are staying. Say your goodbyes now, cause this may be the last time."

AN: Woot woot! Update-ness! Expect the next one out in a couple days, a week tops.
