Chapter 3: Sasuke, Run!
AN: I am so sorry for the long delay!! . It won't happen again! To make up for it, this chapter is a wee bit longer than the other ones, so enjoy!!
Thank you for all the reviewers and people who favorited this story. I got really excited /happy when I saw the stats/reviews, so please keep it up!!
Orochimaru's point of view
As Sasuke's footsteps grew nearer and nearer, I smirked. Quickly, I made the necessary hand seals for the Shintenshin no Jutsu and was transfered to the unconcious body of Itachi. Then I stood in the shadows, getting ready for the fun that I was being promised.
Show time!Sasuke suddenly ran in the room "Otou-san? Okaa-san?" I heard the fear in his voice.
Good, he's obviously seen the bodies. Well, I guess there is one thing left to do.
I turned to face him. He seemed relieved to see me. (AN: You know, Itachi, but it's actually Orochimaru)
"Ni-san! Otou-san and Okaa-san are…"
Duh, dead!.
"Why?! How?! Who did this to-"
Gosh what an annoying brat. Guess I'll end it.
I took a shuriken out and threw it at Sasuke, purposely scraping his arm. Although it scratched him a little on the arm, he acted like it was some huge wound, clutching it in pain.
Pathetic!
"Ni-san, what are you doing?!"
Very pathetic. I wonder what I should do with him. Let's play around a bit Sasuke. Let's see how long you can last.
"Foolish little brother." And with that, I activated the Mangekyo Sharingan.
Let the fun begin!
And with that, I began to show him the massacre that occurred earlier that day. Every single detail. I would have gladly showed it to him more than once, but his screaming and begging was getting on my nerves, so I decided once was enough.
Sasuke fell to his knees, overwhelmed by the events I showed him. He panted, asking in a voice barely above a whisper
"Why ni-san? Why?" And it was after that, I felt a little faint.
Huh?! What is going on?! I can't be out of chakra, so what's this feeling?
Then, with a sudden jerk, I was taken to a dark basement like area (AN: Just think the area where Kyuubi is in Naruto. Also, this basement like area is Itachi's mind, and for the record, any basement like area will be the mind of everyone. The sudden jerk was because Itachi was fighting to regain control of his mind. However, he was not able to take total control. Thus Orochimaru was taken into the mind. Sorry for the long AN and hope this helps!! . ) I was soon able to see Itachi, and when I saw what he was doing, I was in shock. There was Uchiha Itachi, beginning to take over his mind again.
"How are you able to do this?! What are you doing?! Do you want me to have your brother killed?" But, Itachi was paying no heed. I could see him smiling slightly.
What?! How can he be unresponsive to that threat?! And what's with the smile? Oh well, I was going to use Sasuke to get a better deal, but I guess I can't. You dug his grave Itachi.
I was about to make hand seals to communicate with my summons to tell them to kill Sasuke, but before I could even form one hand seal, I found myself behind bars made of chakra. Saying that I was startled might have been an understatement.
"Make one move," he growled, "and you'll be dead before you realize it!"
He turned to me, and if looks could kill, I might have been dead the moment he set his eyes on me. With a death glare and in a menacing tone, he growled "Don't you dare think that you can harm my little brother and get away with it!"
I felt myself grow cold with fear for a few seconds, and was relieved when he turned away, only to find that he had regained full control of himself. The thing was that he couldn't completely expel me, so I was still in his mind.
He turned away and began to talk to Sasuke.
Itachi's Point of View
I began to regain conciousness with a pain in the back of my head. As I opened my eyes, I saw that I was in my mind, and all alone. But, I could feel the chakra of Orochimaru all around me.
So he took control of me huh? What should I do?
All of a sudden, I heard my brother screaming and begging for me to stop, to not kill people, and to stop showing him things. Then it hit me.
Orochimaru, that bastard is showing Sasuke what his partner, Shiyo did while I was under control, with some jutsu or something to make it seem like I did everything. Then later, he would kill Sasuke, or leave him alive. But knowing what a sick bastard he is, he might leave Sasuke alive! That would forever scar him psychologically! Sasuke would be better off dead! Damn!! What should I do?!
I began to think up of plans when suddenly, I heard Sasuke screaming again, begging me/Orochimaru to stop. I was suddenly very pissed. All of a sudden, I felt power surge through me. An idea came to me, and I tried to expel the sickening chakra of Orochimaru from my mind with my chakra. Slowly, but surely, I began to regain control.
Soon, Orochimaru was sucked into my mind. He looked startled. Very startled.
He asked in a shaky voice, "How are you able to do this?! What are you doing?! Do you want me to have your brother killed?" But I paid no attention to his threat. After all, if he made the wrong move, he'd be the one that would be killed. I couldn't help but smile a little.
I noticed that he made a decision of some sort and was about to form hand seals. I laughed to myself and made a cage made of chakra and enclosed Orochimaru in it.
"Make one move," I growled, "and you'll be dead before you realize it!"
I turned to him, and sent him a death glare and in a menacing tone, I growled "Don't you dare think that you can harm my little brother and get away with it!"
I turned away, and I pushed myself into my body with my chakra.
Finally! I was able to regain control! Orochimaru you bastard! You will pay for this later! But first, I have to take care of this before I run out of chakra.
I turned to Sasuke. But when I saw him, lying there on the floor, tears streaming endlessly down his face, scared to death, and in so much pain, I thought my heart was being torn into shreds over and over again. With great difficulty, I tried to keep my voice calm and cold. I wanted to tell him everything, but I knew what Orochimaru would and could do. His threat from earlier was still ringing in my ears. Hopefully, he was distracted enough to not notice what my voice would betray.
I'd better make this really quick! Sasuke, please forgive me.
"Sasuke. Run. Run and cling to life. Live and detest me for every second of your life. Only then will you be able to kill me and avenge the death of Otou-san and Okaa-san, and the rest of the clan." And when those words left my mouth, I felt immediate regret again, and a very large amount of indescribable pain and sorrow.
Sasuke. Grow up to become a fine shinobi and a good person. Revive our clan, and kill me for what I couldn't protect, and all the pain that I will cause you.
Sasuke looked up at me and my resolve nearly broke down. He asked me in a very small tone "Why? Brother, why?"
Ku Ku Ku
Damn! Orochimaru's taking control again! I better get Sasuke out of here!!
I took a kunai out, and took a few steps toward Sasuke. As I hoped, he grew afraid and ran away, screaming in fear.
I was glad Sasuke was gone, for a few seconds later, Orochimaru broke free of my jutsu, and I blacked out. Again.
Orochimaru's point of viewWhat the hell just happened?!
I was trembling in fear inside.
How did he do that? He ruined my fun damnit!! I even felt scared! Oh well, I have more important issues to take care of now.
I then teleported to where Sasuke was heading. I began to tell him how to obtain the Mangekyo Sharingan and the secret meeting place of the clan that was nearly no more. I made sure that he was going to blame Itachi for all of this. Judging by how protective Itachi was of Sasuke, doing that was something far worse than killing Sasuke.
Sasuke then fainted.
Pathetic! I thought while stepping over him and heading back to the room where everything happened.
Now, I'd better get back to the headquaters before Sasori gives me a load of crap about taking forever and how I shouldn't make people wait. Honestly, if it weren't for the Sharingan, I wouldn't even be in Akatsuki!
And with that, I released the justu, and returned to my body. I took Itachi in one arm and teleported back to the headquarters.
AN: Blah. I kind of rushed in the end, so sorry if it lacks details!
Again, I am so sorry about the long delay!! Please forgive me!!
PLEASE REVIEW!! That way, I could make this story more enjoyable!
