Assassin in the Moonlight
Chapter 07:
Sasuke sat on the bed near where Sakura was sleeping, silently like an angel from heaven above. 'This is stupid…' He thought getting up. 'She probably won't give me a second chance after all I put her through, I was a cold bastard who wouldn't give her the time of day let alone even talk to her because I was obsessed with becoming stronger to kill my brother.' Sakura rolled over to her side and smiled in her sleep.
She muttered something in her sleep that Sasuke couldn't catch but looked over to her anyway. "S-Sasuke……" Sakura said aloud. 'Was she dreaming about me?' He thought, even though it seemed too good to be true. "Sasuke….I….."
The window broke into a loud ear-shattering crack as a figure jumped through the window, all dressed in navy blue. "Ryou……" Sasuke snarled. "What the hell are you doing here?" "Simply to eliminate you." Ryou smirked pulling out a Katana. "As per Nomura's orders."
'Shit, he found out that Sakura's head was a fake.' Sasuke thought, looking over to her, and she was sleeping like the dead. 'I didn't even notice it," Sakura thought, catching the tablet container under the night desk. "Sleeping pills."
"How observant of you, but I'm afraid you are too late." Ryou announced, walking over to Sakura, holding the katana under her neck. "I wonder how much Nomura will give for your head, along with Sakura's?"
"Leave her out of this! Your fight is with me!" Sasuke growled, pulling out his double ninja swords. "Unless, you're afraid?" "I accept." Ryou grinned manically.
Nomura had arrived to Dr. Akira's laboratory and they began comparing DNA. Apparently the person under the plastic surgery of Sakura Haruno was a guard that was at Boa's castle. He was killed by Sakura and left on the roof. Sasuke came and took it, giving him Sakura's face with someone's aid. Who was the one who performed the plastic
surgery? And where is he/she now?
"This will be amusing," Ryou began. "The two top assassins of Nomura in a battle to the death, I wonder who will win…" He struck his sword at Sasuke, who barely dodged it. 'Damn it, he actually improved since the last time we fought.' Sasuke thought, dodging another blow.
Sasuke attacked Ryou head on, who blocked the blow but then Sasuke used his other sword and slashed Ryou's cheek. He stumbled back, clutching his cheek. It was a deep cut as blood was dripping onto the white carpet. "I see that you want to get down to business so soon." Ryou smirked. "It's a pity I'll have to kill you."
Sasuke jumped up as Ryou tried to slice off one of his legs, smashing into the closet. 'Shit, there's not enough room in here.' Sasuke thought, dodging another swing. 'I have to do something.' Ryou attacked again but Sasuke blocked it sending one of his swords flying to the floor.
Sasuke looked behind Ryou and saw the broken window. 'Bingo, there's my chance!' Ryou flew back as Sasuke kicked him square in the face, right out of the window. "AHHHH!" Ryou screamed but not from the fall, from the broken glass that jabbed into his arms and back. Sasuke looked out the window, there was Ryou enraged, pulling out the pieces of glass from his arms, which only caused him to bleed even more.
Ryou got up and pulled out his shuriken, throwing four up at the window where Sasuke stood. There wasn't enough room to move so Sasuke got hit with two right in the chest.
"HAHAHA!" Ryou laughed getting up. "Looks like I won the fight!" Sasuke got up from the floor and jumped out of the window, landing on his feet like a cat. His eyes were red, he had activated the Sharingan.
"What? You think you can beat me with the Sharingan?" Ryou asked, forming a jutsu. Sasuke became surrounded with what looked like ice mirrors, then it hit him. This was Haku's bloodline ability, how the hell did he get it!
"Kyou, are you related to a guy named Haku?" Sasuke asked curiously. "No, but he did teach me this ability before his father tried to kill his mother and him. We were childhood friends but we were close as brothers." Kyou explained, poising his sword. "And now the end has come."
