Twisted Blood
Chapter 1: Her Blood.
Night descended upon the peaceful village of Konohagakure, lulling it's normally bustling streets into a peaceful slumber. Every man, woman, and child were safely tucked away into the sanctuary of their beds……… everyone, that is, besides a certain brooding, dark haired avenger.
One Uchiha Sasuke jumped noiselessly from rooftop to rooftop, his body moving on auto-pilot as he chose the quickest route out of Konoha whilst avoiding ever vigilant ANBU patrols, for his mind was currently preoccupied with recounting the events that led up to this point…….
After a little "pep-talk" from Kakashi (AKA, being tied to a tree while his sensei talked), he took time to think over what his sensei said. He already knew he wasn't the worst off in the world… he saw the kind of life Naruto led, and it was FAR worse then his. He had to watch his entire clan killed before his eyes by his own brother, but Naruto never HAD any family, plus the entire village treated him like some sort of demon (he made a mental note to find out why).
But he already knew that no matter what anyone said, he would never give up his revenge. The same way Naruto pursued the title of Hokage, he would continue his quest for vengeance. Such goals gives one focus, allows you to think of something other the how much ones life sucks. Besides, his revenge and the revival of his clan was his only purpose in life, and if he were to give up either, he might as well just kill himself, for a man without a purpose is as good as dead.
Even though, that still didn't mean he didn't start to doubt himself, if only a little. What little doubt he had, though, was swept away when they jumped out of the full moon, landing in the tree he was sitting in.
They were the Sounds Four, the Sound villages so-called "elite". Personally, he didn't think any of them were worth shit, even though they were stronger then him, that would soon change. Hell, he didn't even bother to remember their names…. All of them, that is, besides the sole female of the group, Tayuya (though who he presumed to be the leader did look like a girl). There was something about her, something in her looks, in her EYES, that simply sent one shiver after another down his spine. He had a bad feeling about her, and his bad feelings are almost ALWAYS right. That, and there was something eerily… Familiar…. about her. He swore he saw her somewhere before… Bah, he had no time to think on such trivial things.
They had come to recruit him, but all they manage to do was confirm what he already knew. He was an avenger, and as an avenger, it was his duty to gain power, no matter what the cost. Even if he had to eat the fruit out of the palm of the devil himself, if it meant gaining power to kill Itachi, then so be it.
So, here he was now, about to betray the Leaf for Orochimaru, all in the name of power to kill Itachi, thus avenging his dead clan.
He had one last stop to make before leaving Konoha for good, though… the Haruno house hold. He wanted to see her face one more time before he made his final exodus. Life was going to be quite dull without her annoying-self in his life…..
….He wanted to see Sakura's face one more time.
He would never admit it to anyone, especially not himself, but he had come to love her presence. He had come to love her one of a kind silky pink hair. He had come to love her beautiful emerald green eyes. He had come to love her nicely curved body. He had come to love her eternally cheerful demeanor, even in the heart of battle. He had come to love her angelic smile. He had even come to love her wider then average forehead. Hell, he even came to love her annoying but beautiful voice. He had come to love EVERYTHING about her.
He loved collecting beautiful one of a kind artwork (it's his only hobby that doesn't remind him of that horrible day), but she takes the cake. She was like a piece of artwork made by Kami himself. In fact, Kami gave her her wide forehead and annoying personality knowing that her full beuty would paralyze our primitive brains, for us foolish mortals aren't ready for such blinding beauty.
Simply put, he was madly in love with her (but I don't like to put things simply, lol XD!).
But that was that another reason why he must leave. His mad quest for revenge would only hurt her, and he would rather kill himself then hurt such a perfect being.
But he still wanted to see her face one last time……………
Approaching the Haruno house hold, he started to get a REALLY bad feeling. About what, he didn't know, but, as mentioned earlier, his bad feelings are almost NEVER wrong.
When he arrived, he knew where that bad feeling of his was coming from. The house seemed to have an aura of bad feeling. He approached the front door, prepared to knock. Usually, he would have simply snuck in through the window, but now, all he wanted to do was to disprove this bad feeling of his.
When his first knock went unanswered, he knocked a bit harder, this time calling "Sakura?"
Still, his call went on deaf ears…..
Now frantic, He knocked with all his strength.
"SAKURA!" He yelled.
His third knock smashed the door to bits. He smirked at that. He still didn't know his own strength.
His smirk quickly disappeared as he surveyed the house. The entire place was a mess, confirming his bad feeling. Every piece of broken furnisher seemed to scream a tale of passing disaster.
"Sakura?" he called.
Then he heard it….
A near inaudible whimper coming from somewhere.
Using his acute ninja hearing, he followed the whimper to its source: a destroyed couch. He pushed the coach aside. What he saw horrified him.
Behind the couch, was Sakura, in the futile position, crying her little heart out. Her cloths were ripped to shreds, though her knees did a good job of covering her now naked body. But that wasn't the worst of it, oh no, not by a long shot: all over body was some sort of vile fluid. He knew what it was, but that only made it worse.
"Sakura" he said, his horror evident in his voice "you've been raped!"
Sakura stop crying for a moment, and looked up at Sasuke, her surprise evident in her face. Her jade green eyes, though partially covered by her pink locks, were bloodshot from crying. She then looked away from him, ashamed.
"Sasuke-kun" she said, though her usually cheerful tone was gone from her voice "hai, I have been raped. But Sasuke-kun, what are you doing here?"
He ignored her question "where are your parents?" he asked instead "Sakura-chan" he added for good measure.
The "Sakura-chan" surprised her immensely. Sasuke-kun never, I mean, NEVER calls anyone "kun" or "chan". It just wasn't like him.
But she couldn't answer his question, at least not directly. Instead, she turned her head. Sasuke followed her gaze, and instantly understood.
Against the bloodied walls, were the dead bodies of Sakura's parents.
"You're just like me now" he muttered under his breath.
"They made them watch" Sakura mumbled. This gained his full attention "they made them watch as they raped me, then killed them".
At this, he, uncharacteristically, brought her into his strong embrace. If this was the past, Sakura would have been jumping for joy. She, Haruno Sakura, was being hugged by THE Uchiha Sasuke! But now, all she wanted to do was cry on his shoulder.
Sasuke felt something burning inside. A sort of, hatred. It wasn't the curse seal, no, he would NEVER release his curse in front of her again. Not after the first time. No, this was something else….
"Who did this to you, who dare taint you?" He asked, malice evident in his voice.
Instead of answering, she said "You must think I'm weak, I wasn't able to----"
"NO, I don't think your weak, Sakura!" he interrupted "please Sakura, just tell me, who did this to, how did they look like? Please, Sakura-chan, answer me."
Again, the "Sakura-chan" startled her into answering.
" One was a girly blond man, another was a dark haired, brooding fat man, and the other had s-six arms, all of them had Yin-Yang symbols on their cloths, and one of them had the sound village head-band on his head" She said.
The burning sensation returned a thousand-fold. To believe that he even considered joining such slime.
"Where are they!" he asked, the hatred evident in his voice.
"I-I-in t-the kitchen" Sakura stuttered her response.
And that's where he went.
The males of the sound four were doing there own thing in the kitchen, the fat one ate all the food in reach, the blond was dinking all available alcohol drinks, while the six-armed one scavenged for valuables.
On his quest for treasure, the man with the six arms said "Damn it! This family doesn't have shit! No special family justu scrolls, only an average amount of money, not that much jewelry, no family treasure, and---" then something caught his eye "what in hells name---?"
Before he could investigate further, though, a certain dark-haired avenger walked into the room, obviously pissed. His head was down, covering his eyes.
"Huh? What the hell you doin' here? Finally decided join us and Orochimaru-sama, eh?" said the six-armed one.
"You tainted her" was the Uchihas only response.
"Huh, what you babblin--. Oh! You mean that pink-haired slut. Yeah, she was quite the catch. The way she screamed really turned me on! What, you want a go at her? We spermed ourselves out on the bitch, so she's all yours!" The blond man said, the fact that he was evident in his voice.
At this, Sasuke didn't even respond, instead he charged in and attacked.
They tried to counter-attack, but he dodged all their attacks. To Sasuke, they all seemed to be going in slow motion.
Finally, the blond got pissed, and decided to use his strongest justu. He did the hand seals, but Sasuke did all the same seals.
"Suiton: Tsunami no justu!" the both yelled, extending their chakras to condense the water in the air into large waves, launching them at each other. But the Uchihas wave was twice as strong as the blonds, smashing through his wave and slamming the males of the sound four into the wall.
The fat one stared at him with shocked eyes. Just yesterday, they had beaten him no sweat, and now here he was, making them look like total rookies!
"Who the hell are you!" he asked.
"I? I am your death wish!" he answered, lifting his head, showing off his mange sharingan in all it glory.
The males of the sound four soon found themselves in the nightmare world of the mange sharingan, reliving their worst nightmares, over and over again.
Taking advantage of their temporary paralyze, he threw a kunai into each of their hearts.
But he still wasn't satisfied. Upon seeing the fat man and the six armed man still alive, he screamed, activating a full powered chidori in both his hands, charging at them. He brought his duel chidoris upon their heads like hammers, splattering their body parts across the newly created craters. He then fell on his knees.
"I swear the same blood oath on you as I did Itachi, Orochimaru! I'll make you suffer for all the pain you've caused Sakura! You'll never have my body Orochimaru, you hear me, NEVER!" he shouted at the ceiling.
Now calm, Sasuke proceeded to check the blond pulse. Satisfied that he was died, he retrieved his kunai. He then headed to the bathroom to get a robe for Sakura.
Sakura heard the commotion coming from the other room, but paid it no mind, instead mourning for her dead parent.
Sasuke soon returned, bathrobe in hand.
"Here, wear this" he said, offering the bathrobe. She put it on gratefully.
"Arigato, Sasuke-kun" she said, thanking him.
"Your welcome" he said. He then proceeded to pick her up, carrying her to her bedroom.
Usually, being carried by the Sasuke-kun would have made giddy with joy, but now, all she did was take comfort from his warm body, trying to forget recent events.
Soon, they found themselves in Sakuras bedroom. Sasuke plopped Sakura onto her bed, and proceeded to open the window. He was about to take his leave, when Sakuras voice stopped him.
"Sasuke-kun, WAIT! Please, Sasuke-kun, don't go!" Sakura yelled, panic evident in her voice. Then, she said, in a calmer tone "please, Sasuke-kun, stay with me, just for tonight, please, just stay."
"…All right" he said, against his better judgment. He left his spot at the window sill, taking a seat next to Sakura on her pink bed.
Soon, a pregnant silence overtook the room, making the two shinobi uncomfortable.
Finally, Sakura broke the silence.
"Why me, Sasuke-kun?" she asked. Sasuke Turned to face her, his confusion written all over his face, eyes compelling her to explain. And so she did.
"Why did you get so angry back there, going as far as to declare such a blood oath on Orochimaru, over me? I thought you thought of me as an annoying burden to our team, and nothing else" she said, sadly.
"Because, Sakura…" Sasuke hesitated with an answer. Finally, he decided on telling her the simple truth.
"Because I love you, Sakura-chan" He said.
Before she could respond, Sakura found her lips engulfed in a strong kiss. At first, she was surprised, but then gave in and kissed him
Their tongues explored each others mouths, memorizing every detail like they had longed to for so long. It was like her dreams, only a million times better!
Soon, the bathrobe was thrown to the floor, forgotten. Sakura then proceeded to rip Sasukes clothes off, never breaking the kiss all the while. Neither had any cloths on at present.
They temporarily stopped their game of tonsil hockey in order to admire each other now naked bodies. What Sakura saw made her really wet, and what Sasuke saw gave him a boner. She truly was a piece of art made by Kami himself! He didn't deserve to look onto something so..So…perfect!
"Sasuke-kun, your, your, your beautiful!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Not as beautiful as you, Sakura-chan" he said, before claiming her lips in another passionate kiss.
Soon, they found themselves in a naked heap on the pink bed, proclaiming their love for each other in the most intimate way any creature knows how.
"Sasuke-kun, I love you, I love you with all my heart!" Sakura said, after they were done.
"As I you" Sasuke said. For the first time since the night of the red moon, he felt… content, happy even. He never felt happier in his life, being with this girl, Haruno Sakura.
"Please, don't ever go away, Sasuke-kun" Sakura plead.
"I'll never leave you, Sakura-chan, I swear on my honor as an Uchiha, I'll never leave you. You've experienced the same tragedy as I have, so I couldn't leave you, even if I wanted to" He replied " and I love you too much to do that to you, Sakura-chan."
"Arigato, Sasuke-kun" Sakura said, content. They kissed once more, before falling asleep in each others loving embrace.
Long after Sasuke and Sakura had fallen asleep in each others arms, the blond leader of the Sounds Four got up, feeling VERY pissed.
"Damn It! I'm goin to kill that Uchiha fucker and his bitch of a girlfriend!" he yelled, pulling a kunai out of his kunai pouch.
"Brave word, girly man!" said a smirking Tayuya, standing on a tree outside the window "Unfortunately, it ain't goin' to happen."
"Oh, and why the fuck not!" the blond man yelled back.
"Because you're dead" said Tayuya, in front of him, pointing a kunai at his stab wound.
The blond's eyes widened. Tayuya, the supposed weakest of the Sounds Four, was about to kill the groups leader without any fight at all.
"Who the hell are you, and why do you care if I kill them or not?" the blond asked.
" I'm Tayuya, simple as that, and my reasons are none of your concern" she replied.
"And why the fuck not!" the blond retorted.
"Because your died" and preceded to stab him.
Before he died, he saw something that surprised him. At the tip of Tayuyas blond hair…..
He swore he saw pink.
And then all he saw was black.
After efficiently burning the blond's body, Tayuya head up to Sakuras bedroom. There was something she wanted to check first before she took her leave of this place.
She looked down at the artifact in her hand. It was the same one the caught the six-armed mans eye, before Sasuke killed him, that is. It was in the shape of a cherry blossom, the kanji symbol for love, hate, chaos, order, and balance imprinted on each petal, the yin-yang symbol in the center. Tayuya smirked, pocketed the artifact, and turned to face Sakuras sleeping form.
Sakura was fast asleep in Sasukes embrace, lying on top of the dark-haired avenger, a peaceful expression on her sleeping face. Tayuya did a few hand seals.
"Scan no justu!" she said, and then looked at Sakuras Stomach.
What Tayuya saw put a maniacal smile on her face. She walked up to Sakuras sleeping form, and bent over until her mouth was near Sakuras ear.
"Oh, my dear Saku-chan. Your dreams now a reality. You're going to give birth to the Uchihas child" Tayuya whispered. Then, in an even lower whisper, she said "You're going to give birth to the beginning of the end."
The Tayuya turned to face the window, maniacal smile still plastered on her face.
"And so it begins" she said, before jumping into the moon.
OMG, I actually finished a chapter of a fic, I'm so proud! (Pats himself on back). Anywho, as you can tell, this an alteration of manga chapter 181. Even the last line "And so it begins" is what Sasuke says at the end of 181. Oh, and if you thought Sasuke was to OOC, then plz, forgive me. I just thought it was appropriate for the chapter! It won't happen too much, I promise TT! Oh, and as to why I didn't use any of the Sounds Fours names, except Tayuya, it was for two reasons; 1, it showed how little Sasuke thought of them, and 2, I forgot their names XD! Anywho, don't forget to give a review, it would greatly appreciated, thnx! Constructive criticism is accepted, and much appreciated, but no flames, plz! Well, till next chapter, later dayz !
