Naruto's eyes snap open to meet onyx and Sasuke motions to be quiet with a finger to his lips.
Sasuke holds up a hand in motion to tell Naruto to stay put and then leans down a bit and unlocks the blondes ankle cuffs.
"I'm sorry, Naruto, I love you. You deserve more than you were given, this is the least I can do." Sasuke says and comes back up cradle the blondes cheek, then leans forward and whispers in his ear, "Follow my lead."
"Sasuke, please, you don't have to-" Naruto says, now following the act but is still surprised when the raven presses another kiss to his lips.
Naruto finds himself pressing back and wants to wrap his arms around the others neck but remembers he needs to act as if he is still chained.
"Okay, I'm done waiting. Ugh, get off her. I understand she wooed you but have some resolve." Orochimaru said with a scoff as he entered the room again.
"Sasuke! No! Please!" Naruto said again trying to sound the way he did before, now acting. In reality the biggest struggle he had now was trying to look locked up and staying still.
"Naruto, please. Respect my wishes for you." Sasuke said and they made eye contact, Sasuke still looked so sad and Naruto knew Sasuke wasn't acting now. He really wished he could have done this for the blonde.
"I…I'm sorry Sasuke." Naruto said and was overcome with emotions and felt himself begin to cry again, he really just wished he could have a normal life. And that 'I love you's didn't have to come with death.
"Awe, yes how sweet. Now," the snake began and went for some viles on walls and Naruto saw Sasuke looking around the room for a weapon, "Let's get started."
Naruto forced himself to stop crying and tried to get the Uchiha's attention to point out a sword on the wall. Naruto must've moved too much though because he got both of their attention and he wiggled, trying to act as if he were testing the restraints instead.
"Ah, you sweet naive thing, we have you captured. Why don't you save your energy- or I should say save this bodies energy so I can use it later." Orochimaru said and came up to the blonde, running his hand down the blondes arm, before intertwining their fingers.
"Your body, and it's connection to Kyuubi will be endlessly useful." then the pale man leaned forward and whispered in the blondes ear, "I wonder just how wonderful it must feel inside you to cause an Uchiha to lose control like this."
Naruto tried to push the other away with his body by arching his back but found the contact disgusted him as much as the man did. So he looked over the snakes shoulder and made eye contact with the raven, who was finally looking at the younger prince, and looked to the sword. Naruto saw Sasuke follow his line of sight and the brunette ran for it.
'Kurama, I don't know if you can hear me, but please lend me some power.' Naruto thought quickly as he saw the raven unsheathe the sword and saw the snake turn around.
'It's already in you, visualize it coming out in an explosion.' the fox replied immediately.
Naruto felt his body fill with warmth, starting from his stomach, from the seal, and tried to visualize pushing it in a rapid way that would push the snake away and into the sword.
"Ah!" Naruto screamed as his visualization came to fruition and a burst of magic pushed the snake off balance and directly to the Uchiha.
Sasuke charged at Orochimaru and sliced him clear across the chest, wounding him deeply.
Naruto jumped off the table he was previously strapped down to and moved to attack the snake again when he saw the snake pull a blade from his sleeve.
"Sasuke!" Naruto yelled as the raven was within range of the dagger. But Naruto calling out only distracted the Uchiha as he looked to the blonde and was stabbed instead.
The snake had the dagger sticking out between the princes neck and shoulder and Naruto could see some liquid coating the blade.
It must've been poison.
"No!" Naruto yelled and felt his body get taken over by the warmth and his skin started to glow orange, Naruto knew this was the kyuubi's power taken over his whole form. So he went right behind the snake and grabbed onto his shoulder and pulled him back, away from the raven.
As soon as the blonde's skin touched the other, the pale man hissed in pain and Naruto saw his flesh begin to sizzle. Whatever magic was filling Naruto was like fire to the other.
So the blonde visualized it again and the magic flowed through his hands and into the snakes body and burned him through his veins. Sasuke used this time also slash again at the snake from the front and together they finished off the battle.
After Orochimaru fell over, dead, the blonde began to feel weak himself.
Sasuke ran past the snake and grabbed the blonde before he fell, instead helping the blonde to the floor in a gentle manner.
"Naruto!" Sasuke called out and shakes the blonde softly, trying to keep him conscious.
"Ah, Sasuke, I… I love you. Don't- don't ever pull this bullshit again." Naruto said weakly and smirks when the other chuckles through held back tears.
"I won't, I promise." Sasuke says and holds up the blonde to embrace him.
'Kit.'
"Kurama." Naruto responds aloud, this causes the other to pull back and look at the blonde in confusion. "The fox demon."
'You have to leave there. I need to heal you. Your body wasn't ready for that much magic, it's going to tear you apart from the inside. Leave now.'
"I- I have to go Sasuke. The fox has to heal me." Naruto explains as he begins coughing and finds he is coughing up blood. "My body can't handle this- this magic."
"Hold on. I'll get us out of here." Sasuke says and picks the blonde up bridal style which hurts the weakened prince's lungs but he just coughs in pain.
The raven begins to lead them back the way them came but Naruto finds himself dozing off, his body too weak to stay awake.
"Stay with me, Naruto-"
Darkness.
"I can't lose y-"
Enveloping.
"Please I love-"
Coldness.
"Naruto!"
