Chapter 2
"Overburdened" by: Disturbed
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot line and the world parts I created in my sick and twisted mind. That means I do not own Naruto or Disturbed, but love them both anyways. I hope that this will squelch the need for yoainess….onto the chapter. sneaks off with itachi plushie!
Sasuke had gone to the hokage right after packing his things. He knew that she would help him. Indeed she did, after belittling him. Telling him how much she really should not be helping him. That Naruto was better off without knowing him ever again. Sasuke had pleaded. Tsunade was not going to budge without him giving her the real reason why he was going to him. After baring his soul to her, she gave him the address where the band was going to be next. Seems they were going to stay in the Industrial Country to make a video for the first song for their fourth up coming album.
He sat in his cabin listening to one of Fushizen's albums and wondered how the hokage knew so much about Naruto as it was. He concluded that Naruto and the old woman stayed in touch despite his leaving. This disturbed him, but he got over it. In a couple of hours, he would be in the city where Naruto was. No more wondering if he was dead or alive. No more guessing where he would be. He had plans to claim the idiot, even if the blonde almost red head never knew it.
So many questions ran through his head as he lay on the small bed. The ship pulled into port. A loud bang sounded on his door. He was up and grabbing his bag before the second rap came down on the wood. He opened the door before there was a third. He left a bewildered sailor standing in the doorway to a now empty cabin.
Sasuke was off the ship in no time flat. He asked for directions to where the studio was. He looked around. Tall buildings were everywhere. Some blocked out the sun that shined. Sasuke shouldered his bag so both straps were around his arms. He began to move in the direction the person had pointed. No one commented or even noticed him. All the people were absorbed in their own worlds as they went about their business. He mentally noted that this was worse then his own village it seemed.
Sasuke arrived on the roof of the studio that Tsunade had told him. He saw Kisame talking to the pony tailed blonde-haired woman outside the door below him. Yep, this was it. The two went inside after saying it was going to start. He slipped in after them before the on air bulb lit up. He let the two get ahead of him.
Sasuke wandered around the sound stage as if in a daze. There were several sets. The video was going to be all day long if they were going to shoot it all at once. He remembered seeing a couple of their videos. None of them ever appeared in them. He looked over towards voices. Itachi and Naruto were going over their parts. Seems there was firsts for everything. Sasuke's heart skipped a beat. His gaze was fixed on Naruto. Hair spiked in all directions, and some covering his ears. On his forehead were plastic horns that matched the demonic tail attached to his tight orange leather pants. He was shirtless. Bare feet completed the look. Sasuke gulped. Naruto was beautiful. Sasuke held in a gasp. There were many things he was going to ask. When he got him alone that is.
Sasuke was going over the plan in his head when a hand grasped his shoulder. He turned with a kunai ready in his hand. A man dressed in a t-shirt, complete with a clipboard looked at him with a smile. Sasuke secretly put the kunai back in his pack. He gave him the Uchiha glare that made the man sweat drop and the smile falter.
"Just a little late for make-up, but we can fix that. The extras for the line are gathering." He grabbed Sasuke by the arm and dragged him to a chair where a brunette woman was smacking bubble gum. The man spoke to her and not Sasuke.
"He's an extra to stand in the line where the lead will be today."
"What kind of demon is he going to be?" she asked smacking her gum the entire sentence. Sasuke was annoyed. After hearing, he was going to be that close to Naruto, he would keep his trap shut for now. The man contemplated this for a moment with his hand on his chin. He was giving Sasuke the once over from head to toe. Snapping his thin fingers, he had an idea.
"Make him a gargoyle. We will put him at the feet of the Devil character. Give him a metal leash too, so that they can hold him in place." Sasuke could not believe what he was hearing. A leash! Naruto was going to get an ear full when this was over. Sasuke was less then pleased. The thought of Naruto holding it brought a pinkish color to his cheeks.
"You want him to be naked, loin cloth, or just pants, tail, wings? On the other hand, just do the works?" The girl asked in rapid secession.
"The eyes are fine the way they are, but give him a grey rocky look with wings. Make the leash a chain. I will be in wardrobe getting the pants for him you do the rest. We have to hurry." With that, the man ran off leaving Sasuke with the bored looking woman.
After an hour passed, he was free. He looked at himself in the mirror. His face and upper torso are a grayish color dabbed with a darker grey to make it look like he was made of stone His hands have the same color, but claws painted black. His hair spiked much like Naruto. The wings bent to look folded in for comfort. The chain that dangled from the leash around his neck bothered him.
From what he heard from the make-up girl, the devil was deciding the fate of the newest arrivals, and that Naruto was standing in line waiting for his judgment. Throughout the song, he wonders why he is there, and asks why he is in line to begin with. This sounded like Sasuke's kind of song.
Before he knew it, he was kneeling at the feet of the last person he wanted it to be. Itachi was playing the devil. Just his luck. The other members were the demons in line with him. His leash was given to Itachi. They looked at each other. No emotions or words were spoken. Sasuke knelt down to his left side. The director was pleased. He went over what was to happen to Naruto and the other members.
"Okay people! Here is what I want from you. This scene is going to be edited through out the video. What we are going to do is film the entire song. Naruto, you are to sing the entire time, and act out the emotions of the words. Everyone else go off what he does. Feel the music people."
Everyone took his or her spots. Naruto looked up to Sasuke. The latest addition. If he knew who it was, he paid no attention to it. The director gave a few more orders before the lights went dim around them. They were literally in hell. The music started.
"Fate is so unkind
Now I should have known
Blind leading the blind
Reaping what I've sown
If it all amounts to nothing
Why, then, am I standing in this line?"
Naruto lipped a very dark phrase before starting to lip sync to the lyrics. Sasuke was indeed taken in by the mood and music. He was more so enchanted by Naruto.
"Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
I may never know for certain
When will be my time
How was I considered evil?
Vengeance taken in this life
Someone granted me reprieval
Decades spent in strife
Led to nothing
Repeated in my mind
Led to nothing
If only I was born another time..."
Naruto let his music and lyrics take over him. He swayed with the rhythm. The extras around him taking his actions and playing off them. He ran a hand through his hair and looked to the sky seeking his answers to the questions he was singing. He gestured to the people and scenery around him to make his point. Getting angry, he made fists as he looked at his feet. As if telling the Devil ahead of him this was not his place. He went on singing.
"Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How have I been so determined malign?"
Naruto turned to the side where a blue screen was. Sasuke guessed this was going to be another scene where they were going to edit later. Naruto reached out as if in pain at what he saw. Bringing them back to clutch at his chest over his heart. Sasuke was loosing himself to the moment. He reached out to his pineapple. The leash was yanked hard and he came sprawling backwards. The director liked this. Sasuke could tell that by the camera aimed at him and the nods he was getting from him too.
"It's the closing of the curtain
In the play that was my life
Countless chapters left unopened
Tragedies inside
I was fighting for a reason
Holy blessed homicide
Seems I have committed treason
All I've sacrificed
Led to nothing
Repeated in my mind
Led to nothing
If only I was born another time
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?"
Naruto fell to his knees. Lost in the song, he went on. Giving into the emotions, he had put words to. He pounded the ground in his frustration. He pointed and accused the Devil of his actions as he once again kept asking him. Sasuke wanted to go to him. He had to wait until the Leash was off. He did not really mind the make-up.
"Fate is so unkind
Now I should have known
Blind leading the blind
Reaping what I've sown
If it all amounts to nothing
Why, then, am I standing in this line?"
The guitar solo went off and he screamed silently to the sky above him once again. The extras in line heated things up by going into a mosh type dance around Naruto. Naruto walked to the dais. He glared at the Itachi devil. Sasuke looked at him. He could not believe he was just a few feet away from him now. He was still singing defiantly until the music shut off.
"Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?
Hell is still overburdened
I must stand and wait in line
Hell is still overburdened
How I have been so determined malign?"
Everyone looked to the director. The director was in awe. When he finally yelled cut, most of everyone had already left for lunch break. Itachi threw the chain to the leash to Sasuke as he left him sitting there. Sasuke could hardly breathe let alone catch it before it hit him in the face. Someone had caught it for him. Sasuke looked up into the deepest amethyst there is. Naruto tugged on the chain a little with a playful smirk on his face.
"Nice little addition to the video I do have to say."
Sasuke could just blink at him. Did he know it was him? He was not sure he could trust his voice either way. Naruto bent down sitting on his knees in front of Sasuke. His look of playfulness replaced by one of hurt and mistrust.
"Why did you come here bastard? Did the old lady lose her mind?" Sasuke had no rebuttal or comment. He just kept blinking at him.
"I guess it doesn't matter now. You are here. Why don't you get the make-up taken off and have them bring you to my dressing room. Oh, and have them leave the leash on." Naruto stood up and dropped the leash lead on the ground.
Sasuke just sat there dumbfounded. All his protective walls around him crashed during the little monologue Naruto spoke. He slowly stood up and headed back to the chair before the brown-haired woman. She was smacking a new piece of gum as she removed the make-up, but like Naruto said, he wanted him to stay dressed the way he was. Sasuke's cheeks became full-blown red apples at the thought of Naruto holding the lead again.
Half an hour later, he was standing outside Naruto's dressing room. He dared not knock. His nerves were shot. All this raw emotion wasn't what he was used to. The decision was made for him. The door opened to reveal Naruto still topless and barefoot. No make-up was left on him. He didn't really need any. Sasuke did have to admit he liked the tail on him. Naruto reached out and grabbed the leash lead. He yanked none too gently and Sasuke came into the room on his knees. Naruto chuckled mischievously.
"Now this was not how I had pictured you coming to me Sasuke. I do say I do like seeing you on your knees." The same chuckle. Sasuke blushed from his forehead to his waist.
"I like the color too." Naruto poked fun at him playfully. Nevertheless, one thing he always was is truthful. He did like the color on him and the fact he was on his knees. Naruto licked his lips.
"I'm going to ask you again, why are you here bastard?" This time Sasuke felt words in his throat and used them. It was just the two of them, honesty abound.
"I came for you." It was soft, but held meaning. Naruto scoffed at him. He tugged on the leash causing Sasuke to wince.
"And why now? Why didn't you years ago when I needed you?" Naruto's words were dripping with pain and venom. He wanted them to sting Sasuke just as much as they did to him. Sasuke felt it.
"I came back to the village to find you gone. Hokage-sama told me you had gone off to train. After some time we all thought you were dead." He hung his head in shame. It wasn't enough, he knew. It was the best he could muster from this new appointed emotional view.
"The way old lady Tsunade told me, you attacked the village with snake-man, and at the very end turned against him and his own army. From the look on your face she didn't tell anyone we keep in touch." It was true, shock was written all over his face. He had suspected as much, but nothing of detail.
"Yes, in the end I turned on him. Afterwards I found out you weren't there anymore. We all got on with our lives. I tried, but there was no you Naruto. That is when your music started to come out a couple of years ago. It struck a cord in me. Then two months ago I saw you singing the music I love so much…"Sasuke trailed off. He really did not want to give so much away right off the bat. Naruto looked numb to this though.
"And? You are fan of our music, big deal…" Sasuke was the one to cut him off this time. It was his turn to have his words effect him they way his music did.
"Because I love you Naruto! I turned against Orochimaru for you! To protect the village you used to love so much!" Naruto just stared at him. The mischievous smirk was back. A fang peaked over the top as he sunk down to his own knees. He began to crawl to Sasuke. Sasuke just sat there with his heart hammering against his ribs.
"Now that we got that out of the way…" he kept crawling. Sasuke began to slink backwards on the floor. Prey and predator playing a dangerous game.
Sasuke fell backwards and used his elbows to help him get away, but was still to slow for him. Naruto slinked his way up his legs. Sasuke watched as their bodies glided over one another. Naruto kept up his climb. Before Sasuke knew it, he was looking at Naruto above him.
Naruto had his hands bracing him over Sasuke on each side of his head. He locked Sasuke's legs with his own. Neither of them was going anywhere. He wiggled his eyebrows and grinned at Sasuke. Sasuke grumbled but didn't put up much of a fight from there on. His hands were free, but he did not want to admit to himself he was enjoying himself.
"Seems the fox has caught a mouse….wonder if he wants to play with me…" Naruto bent down so he was nose to nose with Sasuke. Sasuke just gulped. Sweat beaded down his temples. Naruto reached out with his tongue and licked Sasuke's cheek.
"Does the mousey want to play with me?" He licked the other cheek.
Sasuke's breathing became erratic. He brought his hands up to place them on Naruto's chest. He received a growl instead. Naruto reared up, grabbed Sasuke's hands, and pinned them above his own head. Sasuke marveled at Naruto's strength. He was no longer his dead last.
"No… I make the rules. The fox wants to taste the mouse first."
Naruto trailed his tongue down Sasuke's neck. He reached the leash. He ran his tongue the length of the lead. He stopped at each of his nipples. Sasuke was heating up with each caress. Naruto let go of his hands. He brought his down and under Sasuke. He cupped Sasuke's ass and yanked him up a little into his own lap. Sasuke's yelp of surprise was smothered by Naruto's lips.
The kiss was full of years of want and passion. So searing it nearly peeled their skin from their mouths. Naruto brought Sasuke up to sit in his lap. He latched one hand behind his head the other still gripping his ass. Sasuke wrapped his arms around Naruto's neck to hold on. He knew he wouldn't drop him, but he didn't know what else to do. Until, Naruto growled out a command to him.
"Touch me...mousey…" his voice was so deep it sent a shiver up Sasuke's spine. Sasuke complied.
He ran his hands the length of Naruto's back. Next was his chest. It was every bit as defined as he thought it looked during the video shoot. Naruto rumbled out a moan as Sasuke went further down. Naruto left Sasuke's lips for his neck where he bit down. Not hard enough to draw blood, just enough for Sasuke to get the point.
Sasuke bucked his hips against the growing groin of Naruto. He let Naruto guide him where ever. Sasuke was placed on his back. Some how his pants had come off. Looking to the side, he saw they were shredded. His eye opened wide when he felt Naruto touching him where none has. He groaned out his desire to his fox. Naruto's tongue was doing things he never thought of. A low chuckle brought him back to reality from cloud nine.
"Mmmmm….I like the way you taste…but I want more…"
Sasuke was going to ask what he wanted, when he was flipped over. He was again on all fours. Naruto was on his knees behind him. He bent over Sasuke. His pecks rubbing against his soft skin. It further excited him. He reached around and grabbed the lead. He pulled on a little rough, but he moan he got from Sasuke was worth it. Sasuke looked over his shoulder at Naruto. Lust was in his eyes. Naruto and Sasuke began the long awaited mating dance.
Gaara walked by the dressing room to see if Naruto was ready to go. Before he even knocked, he heard the sounds. Sounds he never heard coming from Naruto's dressing room. Kisame was known to have his share of women. Even Itachi and Diedra once in awhile. He went to try to knock again. His hand was stopped.
"Naruto is with Sasuke. Let's leave them alone and go have dinner." He turned to see Itachi holding it. No emotion was evident on his face, but his voice displayed it enough for him. Gaara nodded. They both walked away from the sounds. Gaara and Itachi both guessed it was going to be awhile before either of them emerged from the room. They both also knew that they just got another permanent companion on their tour.
Please Read and review. We'd love to hear what you thought about it.
