"My family abandoned me when they found out what I was." Sasuke turned to her with a curious look on his face.
"You aren't human?"
Kami felt nervous. She never discussed this topic, it was too secret, too private.. And yet..
She wanted to get it out. Now.
"I don't know what I am. All I know is that.. One day I did something.. That my family didn't like."
Flashback:
"You monster!" Kami felt a slap to her cheek as she struggled not to cry. What had she done this time? Why were they hitting her?
"Okaasan! Otousan!" Kami cried out but only received the glares of her family. "What did I do? I'm sorry!"
"You know what you did, Monster." Kami flinched as she heard that word.
Monster.
She hated that word so much. She hated being called that word. She hated being that word. "Why?" She would ask herself. Why did she have to be cursed?
Ever since she had reached adolescence at the age of twelve, every month she would have the urge to kill. She never understood why she wanted to see blood, why she wanted to devour blood. During that time, all she cared about was getting blood.
And this time she had killed her brother.
"From this point on.. There is no Kami in this family. There never was a Kami."
She could only watch as the rest of her family left her in the dirt, homeless and beaten.
What was she?
:End of Flashback:
"So you see," she smiled grimly. "I'm a monster."
'She knows what it's like not to have a family anymore,' Sasuke thought. He almost felt as though he and Kami had a connection-even if it was one of pain. Almost.
'What have I done? I've revealed my secret and now I'm done for.. I won't be able to work anywhere again and I'll be lonely again..' Kami thought to herself. 'Why did I get carried away?'
"I won't tell."
She looked up at Sasuke in surprise. "How did you know it was a secret?"
Sasuke smirked. "If it weren't a secret, I don't think Orochimaru would have you here.. As a medic nin.."
"Thank you.. And about your brother.. I hope you are successful.."
Sasuke nodded.
"Sasuke.." He turned to face her. "Thank you."
"For what?" He asked, studying her expressions.
"For relieving my burden. I've kept this secret to myself and it's been killing me on the inside through the years.. And now I feel so much better.." Kami smiled at Sasuke as he studied her.
He realized that she truly was very attractive-monster or not, she could easily lure any man. 'What are you thinking?' he yelled inwardly, and forced himself to stop. 'What is it with her?' He thought.
'She shared the same pain.'
"Sasuke, what is going to happen to me?" The question was rather abrupt, she knew, but she couldn't help but wonder if Orochimaru was going to get rid of her since she didn't interest Sasuke.
"Normally Orochimaru would just kill you. Or torture you."
Kami's stomach hurt again.
"However.. This isn't a normal circumstance. Play along."
Kami was about to ask him what he was talking about until she heard someone turn the door knob. Sasuke quickly pushed Kami against a wall and leaned against her. She was about to try to struggle until Orochimaru walked in.
"Sasuke," he smirked, giving a satisfactory and nasty smile towards Kami. "Having fun?"
"Hn."
Orochimaru laughed nastily. "Then, Kami, I see this will be your new room until you accept your little deal. You don't mind do you, Sasuke?" He smirked maliciously towards Kami, then exited.
".. Thank you.." Kami said. Sasuke shifted away but with hesitation. 'Did I just hesitate?' He asked himself. He shook it off. 'I haven't been out in a long time. This is only natural.'
"So.. What now?" Kami asked. 'Sasuke's actually a really nice guy.. It's just his past that made him like this.. He's afraid of his past..'
Sasuke smirked. "Well, we have to make this believable."
"…" 'What's that supposed to mean?'
Sasuke sighed. "No, not like that,"
'Phew'
"You can take the bed." Sasuke said and sat in a chair.
"What? No, this is your-"
"I'm more comfortable sleeping like this."
Kami doubted that Sasuke liked to sleep on a chair but she knew that her protests would be useless.
"Thank you.." She then climbed into his bed and drew up the covers to her neck. She smiled at Sasuke before drifting off to sleep.
Sasuke watched as she smiled at him and watched as her eyes slowly fluttered closed. She was sleeping.
'Why are you helping her? You don't even know her. Let Orochimaru take her.' A voice in his head scolded. 'No..'
'She's too beautiful for Orochimaru.'
Yes I'm sorry people, I know this chapter was really OOC because I don't think Sasuke would ever get THAT emotional.. If you could call it emotional.. But I had to make it so that Kami and Sasuke got to know each other sort of.. Anyway, this IS a SasukexOC fic. Later it will be OCxItachi.. I hope you liked this chapter and I promise-the next chapters will be better!
