Chapter 5 Welcome To Akatsuki…
Much to Itachi's dismay, Sasuke was a cuddler. Though normally he would enjoy the warmth of his younger brother, it was hard to enjoy it in the night when he wanted to roll over. There was one thing that made up for it though, and that was the look on the raven-haired beauty's face as he slept.
Sasuke looked like he was in such a calm dream, an innocent air about him as Itachi ran his fingers through Sasuke's hair. His onyx eyes gazed at the parted lips of his otouto, reaching out and running his thumb over them slightly, leaning in and giving him just a soft loving brush of the lips, enough that it made Sasuke smile childishly in his sleep, nuzzling himself even more into Itachi's shoulder.
This was bliss, a heaven made especially for Itachi in the arms of that, which was forbidden to him for so long. Itachi closed his eyes and took in the feeling of Sasuke's breath against his skin, allowing himself a smile. Perhaps he didn't mind this.
-------------
The dawn came with the feeling of a weight being lifted off of Itachi's chest, muttering something about hunger and clothing. The sound of the door opening and the sounds that followed made Itachi want to kill, like his younger brother; he didn't enjoy being shaken from his slumbers.
"Time to get up, Uchihas, Unn!" Deidara sang as he jumped and landed atop both of the disgruntled brothers, not really noticing the fact they were lacking clothing. "We've got to begin the welcoming process, yeah. Breakfast and such, yeah!" Breakfast was always better when someone new was being welcomed into the organization. Deidara particularly enjoyed the food that was prepared when Itachi joined; surely it would be just as good if not better for the younger Uchiha.
Sasuke gave a loud growl and a harsh command. "GET OFF!" Itachi gave his command coolly at nearly the same time. "You've 3 seconds to get off and get out of my room…"
Deidara huffed and suddenly felt himself being lifted up, a feeling he had grown used to. Sasori stood in the doorway, using his pupettering skills on Deidara as he took him out of the room with a low grumble.
"Sasori-danna, unn! I was just waking them up, yeah." Deidara whined as he was walked out of the room and down the hall.
"Unnessisary acts are annoying, let them get themselves up." His voice was dull and bored as he let Deidara walk on his own. The grumbles and unn's fading as they walked farther away.
"Now I see why you don't enjoy your neighbors." Sasuke muttered, rubbing his shoulder and wrapping up in the covers.
Itachi just sighed and wrapped up in his own blanket, wandering to a beautiful set of drawers off to the side, he took out his usual set of clothing. He took his old clothing and tossed some at Sasuke. "I'm going to take a bath…clean yourself up and dress."
With that Itachi turned and left the room, an aroma slipping from the hall as he walked out, aroma of food Sasuke could only dream about.
---------------
Sasuke sat quietly fixing his hair so it didn't fly everywhere, as it tended to do when he slept like he did. Itachi walked into the room, a towel covering his shoulders as he sat beside the fire to let his hair dry a little quicker. Sasuke couldn't help but admire the raven strands that adorned his other brother.
Itachi reached for a brush and ran it through his hair, a few drops of water running down his bare back and gathering at the band of his pants. Sasuke slipped out and over, lightly touching his hand and slipping an arm around Itachi's feminine waist. "May I, nii-san…?"
Itachi looked over his shoulder and handed him the brush. "Go ahead…" Sasuke took the brush and nodded, slowly running it though the long strands of hair that flowed down Itachi's back. Sasuke couldn't help but run his fingers through the cascading waterfall of coal colored locks. It felt like silk in between his fingers as he continued to brush it.
Itachi closed his eyes, placing his arms back to hold himself up, having his hair messed with and brushed made him drowsy, it was a feeling he adored more then anything else, probably the only thing he did enjoy aside from killing and his otouto.
Sasuke finished brushing it, but was far from finished with touching it. He twisted the strands of raven hair around his fingers, eyes filled with admiration. Sasuke hadn't done this since he was 7, yet the feeling hadn't changed. He always wanted to grow his hair out like this; to be just like his nii-san, but after the massacre…nothing like that seemed right.
Itachi, by this time, was sound asleep, lying in Sasuke's lap like a kitten, curled up next to him. Sasuke noticed this and let his hands trail over Itachi's features, his fingers running over his lips, slowly up the slight curve of his cheeks and over the slight premature wrinkle he had just beside his nose. He found his hands trailing down just under his chin and slowly down his neck.
"Nii-san…" Sasuke sighed softly, leaning down and letting his lips meet the lips of his Aniki. Leaning up Sasuke lightly hugged himself to Itachi, eyes closed as well.
The older Uchiha stirred and opened his eyes, finding strands of raven hair from his brother's bangs hanging in his own eyes. "Otouto…off." He yawned a bit, sitting up as Sasuke let go.
"Need to get to the breakfast…" He muttered this quietly as he reached for his Akatsuki cloak, words held down with sleep.
Sasuke nodded and stood with Itachi, walking to the door way as they left for the lavish banquet.
----------------
Sasuke let his eyes look over the massive amounts of food on the table, he wasn't used to this one bit.
Zetsu, the one whom he had a not so pleasant encounter with before was sitting at the far end next to Kisame, clearly having been reassigned to each other. Across from them were Deidara and Sasori, who both looked particularly tired, though Deidara was helping himself to a large cup of what smelled like coffee. Surely that would turn out badly later on.
Two other men sat towards the center of the table, one of which was praying, silver hair swept back in a manner that was just so. Itachi leaned up next to Sasuke's ear, telling him who was who. "The one who's praying is Hidan…just don't insult his religion…"
Sasuke's eyes turned to the one who sat next to Hidan, whispering silently. "And him?"
Itachi tugged Sasuke to the seat he would be in, the seat, which Orochimaru used to sit in. "He's Kakuzu…throw a dollar at him if you're ever in a tense spot and he'll go away."
Sasuke arched an eyebrow and remained stoic just like his brother. At a glance you'd think they were twins, except one was without a cloak.
Sasuke helped himself to the food before him; as did everyone else, conversation mostly remaining between partners. A few words were exchanged between Sasuke and Hidan, mostly pertaining to Sasuke's religion.
A voice came over the room as the table disappeared slowly, everyone standing as the room dimmed, the shadowed figure stepped in, everyone bowed their heads, Sasuke did best to imitate their actions.
"Sasuke-san…welcome to Akatsuki. You're taking your master's place…" The shadowed figure simply handed Sasuke the traditional cloak and ring. "I'd have a mission for you but it seems you've already completed it…good work. The rest of you have your assignments, get going." With that the shadowed figure simply disappeared, leaving the other members to their jobs.
However Sasuke got that oh to familiar feeling of eyes digging into his back. He turned his head a little to find Zetsu and Kisame glaring at the Uchiha, the only two left in the room aside from himself and Itachi.
Kisame and Zetsu passed a few words between themselves before they got up and left for their mission.
"What's so special about him that he gets special treatment from the boss…praise. Psh…" it sounded like Zetsu's voice.
"He stole my best partner…I don't think he should get away with that." Kisame.
"Oh no no no…. and for the ravening of my mouth, along with his vial brother…"
"Of course…"
Surely a shark could understand how sensitive a flytrap's mouth was, and seeing how the outside was set a flame, the mouth was probably in great pain. Kisame could relate with Zetsu on many accounts after all flytraps and sharks were very similar. Both were scavengers and both had something against the youngest Uchiha.
-------------------
Kisame stood over the mangled body of what appeared to be one of Orochimaru's spies, Samehada crawling atop Kisame's shoulder. Zetsu inspected the body of the man.
"Am I allowed to eat him?" the voice was timid.
"Let me eat him!" the voice was rough.
Kisame gave a small grunt. "Eat him if you want…not like we can't get the information we need from the runt Uchiha." Sure Kisame liked the effect he had on Itachi, but the fact he was now a higher rank then him was enough to make his blood boil. He'd taken his prey, and a shark never takes that well.
Zetsu finished his meal and looked towards Kisame. "Why not do the same to the Uchiha then? No one has to know…if we get rid of the evidence."
Kisame gave a slight smirk, though he made it more evident then his usual toothy grin. "I like the way you think Zetsu…shall we?"
The flytrap slowly slipped into the ground, leaving nothing behind of their victim.
-------------------
Sasuke sighed, the sun growing low in the west as he sat on the branch that overlooked the lake, his Akatsuki cloak blowing lightly in the breeze, the ring on the smallest finger of his left hand catching the light of the sunset. Itachi stood above him, eyes looking down towards the younger Uchiha, slipping down and wrapping his arms around Sasuke, nuzzling his nose against his cheek. "Funny how you found your way here…otouto…"
Sasuke closed his eyes halfway, leaning back slightly into his brother's arms. "How is that amusing to you?"
Itachi leaned his forehead on the top of Sasuke's head. "I came here when I first joined as well. I grew bored of it…though now it seems a little more interesting." He unbuttoned the first few buttons of his cloak, slipping a hand in and up Sasuke's shirt, letting his fingers brush over his chest.
Sasuke shifted a little. "N-Not now, nii-san…"
"Why not, hm?" Itachi's lips brushed Sasuke's ear as he pulled him back a bit more.
"I just want to think for a bit that all…" He gave a sigh closing his eyes.
"Is it about that kyuubi…?" Itachi's voice was low, stoic.
"He was my friend…his blood stains my hands just like the clan's blood stains yours…" Sasuke hung his head, pulling at his own hair.
Itachi sighed and hugged Sasuke tighter. "Otouto…lose yourself in sadness and your appeal to me will slip away." He gave him a kiss to the neck, brushing his lips over the cursed seal, sending a jolt of fire down Sasuke's body, giving a soft hiss at the feeling.
"If you want to get over it…look at what you have. You've joined Akatsuki, you've gained the Mangekyo Sharingan…and most of all…" The longhaired man gave a soft lick to Sasuke's ear. "…You have your Aniki. Let your heart grow cold to the matter."
A shiver ran down Sasuke's spine with the final words as his mind trailed back to his original purpose…to kill the man whose arms he sat in now. But this man was his happiness as well…such an irony couldn't rip him apart more.
The younger Uchiha found himself being torn again between what was right and what made him happy. Just as his thoughts began to build and come to a boil Itachi's lips came to meet his, thoughts coming to a shatter as he returned to his original decision, though the voice in the back of his mind remained.
"Shall I leave you to think for a bit more?" Itachi spoke quietly as he pulled back.
"Yeah…I'll follow in a moment…"
With that Itachi turned and headed back, the trees shaking as he faded in the distance; leaving Sasuke with his head back against the tree.
The air was very still as things were settling into night, but the stillness was an unnatural one. Sasuke picked up on this quick as he ducked down, nearly missing the giant wrapped sword, feeling the familiar jaws of Zetsu closing around his leg.
"My kind never take it lightly when someone steals our prey." Kisame spoke in almost a laugh as he drew out several shuriken, sending them into the immobile Sasuke.
The Uchiha cried out as they dug into his chest and sides, blood spilling from his wounds, some slipping from his mouth as he gave another yell. "You bastards!"
Zetsu opened the jaws and let him fall to the ground, it proved to be a mistake.
Sasuke lurched forward as he activated his sharingan, appearing behind Kisame and plunging a kunai into his back, jumping backwards as Zetsu came up from below. "Shit…"
His injuries were starting to get to him as he suddenly found himself pinned against a tree with Samehada digging into his skin, his chakara being drawn out as it began to saw itself into him, yelling out again as he found it harder and harder to draw up the sharingan.
"I've got you right where I--…" Kisame's words fell short as a large shuriken cut into the shark man, who was no more then half of what he was as the corpse slipped forward the other half falling down and out of the trees.
Sasuke pushed the massive sword off of him as his eyes searched the area, waiting for the flytrap to show itself. Just as he caught eye of it, Zetsu lurched up. Sasuke reacted quickly as he made the necessary hand signs.
"Katon! Gokakyou no jutsu!"
Fire rained down the plant as Zetsu fell back, Itachi standing above Sasuke as he watched the attack being performed and executed.
Here they were…two live Akatsuki members, and two dead ones. A silent law having been broken; betrayal amongst the clan, however, the blame wasn't to fall upon the corpses that lay in front of them.
"Damnit…" Itachi knew the consequences that now faced him…
…Exile and certain assassination
Chapter 5 end, sorry if characters seem OC-ish in this chapter. I don't particularly like fighting scenes myself and I like Zetsu and Kisame very much. (Akatsukilove) However, just as Naruto's death was necessary to move the plot along, this was too. I hope you liked it even if it was very different from the last few chapters. I promise some interesting happenings in chapter 6. Please review, thank you very much for your time.
