Eyes0nne19: Sankyouuuuu!

I had to delete and re upload this chapter 3 times! the spacing was wrong, stuff was bolded, and you couldn't tell where the scene ended!! So, here's the deal:

"stuff" is talking

'stuff' is thinking

. . . . is a scene change

Chapter Two

"Genocide, la de da de da, an ocean of blood! Let's begin the killing time!" A figure appeared in a small gust of wind, hands raised above her head, spinning gracefully over dead leaved and wet moss. Tired of the silence, she began her song again: "Total slaughter, total slaughter…"

"Colt!"

The girl looked up through her hair in time to see her boss walking towards her. A grin spread across her features, and she waved like it had been forever since they'd seen one another. "Ta-sama!" Was cried repeatedly until she was a few steps away from him. Then, as was proper, she bent at the waist in greeting of one of higher rank.

"That's Tashi-sama." The blonde man snorted, but his eyes were soft. Slowly, as if hesitant and unsure, he reached out and ruffled her hair. He almost grinned as she squealed in delight. "Did you do as you were told?"

"Ai sir! Information collected and stored," She tapped her head, winking. "Right up here, sir!" Colt saluted, before forgetting formalities entirely and tackling the man a good foot or two taller then herself. "Colt had such fun!" She cried, rubbing her face into his long black cloak. "I want to fight them again!"

"From the looks of things, they did more of the fighting then you did." Tashi said, gingerly taking her right hand in his own two. The fragile bone was snapped clean in half, the fingers twitching every so often. The girl stared at her own hand as if nothing was wrong, looking up at him innocently after a moment.

"Colt feel nothing."

Tashi grew solemn as he sat her down and began to wrap the injury. "I know."

If you could call the part of his mind he was residing in at the moment any word in the world, it would be….chaotic.

It was like trying to watch movie screens as they spun around you with changing levels of speed. Feet nailed to the ground, turning as much as he could, he could only realized one thing:

He, Uchiha Sasuke, was confused as all hell.

Darkness was everywhere, yet the train of his eye wasn't on the small cuts of black in the far corners, it wasn't black that caught his attention.

Images stood out for a second, before vanishing. As soon as he was about to comprehend on scene, another would take it's place, blurry and out of focus. They came in forms of movie film, each frame taking on a new picture, a new script. What if situations he'd shivered in fear over at night were on repeat, and new terrible ideas came into view. It was like his minds was switched onto the worst possible angst channel.

There were pictures from his past. Movie clips of his brother's last words to him echoing like a broken record. His mother's happy smile, then the blank gaze of the eyes that were so much like his own as she lay dead in front of him. That mouth that once turned up in a grin that he himself never showed anymore was now covered in drying blood. The stern face of his father, someone he always tried to prove himself to, the man that feared nothing. As a child, safely tucked away in bed, no fear would enter his mind. His father was the most strongest man alive, that's how he saw it. But that corpse's face held so much shock and fear when he saw it.

There were images he'd just witnessed recently. The hours before the mission, where his two teammates laughed with one another, as he sat by, watching. The pink haired girl that fawned over him, acting all doe eyed and such, Sakura. She was strong, despite what he said or what she let on. Her will would be her biggest weapon. She was so much like a little sister to him, he watched over her, hoped for the best for her.

The blonde that was his rival, his best friend, someone he could always count on; Naruto. He was always pushing Sasuke to be his best, always grinning that annoying smile and yelling insults. Yet no matter what they called one another, they would dive in front of death to save the other. That numb smile that had pulled at his lips when he blocked Haku's needles from reaching the fox hadn't been because of crazed sadness. He had been so happy to hear the blonde's voice, unharmed by the blow he himself had taken, that the goals in his life didn't come to his mind until he was laying in the arms of Naruto. It was, in his opinion, the perfect deathbed.

And there were images he'd never scene before at all, twisted pictures of the two people that opened his heart, his teacher, and the rest of the ninja's he dared to let near to him laying on the dead streets of Leaf, their eyes wide and accusing. He shivered, his feet finally free as he took a step away, then another. His whole body shook with fear.

"Look what you've done," they moaned.

"No…" He muttered, before stumbling backwards, letting out a painful scream of loss. His hands clawed at his hair, and the sting in his throat was ignored until his voice hitched and cracked in mid scream.

A burning ache in the back of his head caused him to double over, but the visions fallowed him, showing up every time he blinked, everywhere he looked. Remorse filled him, his cheeks grew wet with sweat and something that stung his eyes and made his chest hurt.

Footsteps.

Sasuke looked up, tears he refused to recognize streaming down his face. He couldn't cry, he was an avenger, an iced over heart. Therefore, he wasn't crying, despite the unacknowledged dampness on his face.

It was only a silouette. 'A woman, from the curves of her hips, or a hermaphrodite' He thought to himself in what could have been called humor. That was, if the situation was different.

Finally, she walked into view, and Sasuke recognized her as the same woman they'd been fighting before he found himself here. Her wrist still hung limply at her side. She stood defiant and yet calm, staring him down with businesslike eyes. Each clink of her sandals as she walked caused him to flinch. She paused again, standing right in front of him, before she kneeled. 'When did I get on the ground?' He thought to himself dully.

"Hello, Sharingon Uchiha Sasuke." She said, glairing at him coldly. "I am Colt. I have been ordered to find your weakness." They had a staring contest for a moment, before she grinned not to differently then Naruto and cried. "I've found it, so I'll take my leave!" She patted his head like he was a dog, smiling kindly at the furious boy. But the expression on her face twisted into something expressionless, and Sasuke could have sworn he was staring in a mirror. The hand on his head moved to his forehead, two fingers slowly pushing on his head so it fell back, taking the rest of his body with it. The legs that were tucked neatly under him didn't bend at an odd angle though, it was as if the floor just vanished. Arms spinning slowly, like he was swimming through pudding, he gazed up a his enemy as she remained visible, before a wave of ripples washed her image away.

Now there was only darkness.

Mouse's Notes: If you couldn't tell by the similarities between the first chapter and this one, this is what happened inside Sasuke-kun's head. The story itself will move forward in the next chapter! ….I love Colt, personally, she's such a psycho with her multiple personalities. But, she adores her Ta-sama! XD That song she was singing was Vash's "Genoside Song" from Trigun!

As was said before, reviews greatly appreciated!
