Hey all! It's KRISH-un! I've had an insanely busy weekend, so it's been kinda crazy. I'm glad I could even update, what with my computer being mean to me and all that. Ugh... Well, anyways, tell me how you liked this chapter!
Chikazi eventually had to stop, panting heavily.
Sasuke caught up with her almost effortlessly.
She shrunk away from him. "I-I…" His eyes bore into hers with a look of such fury, that she didn't -or couldn't- continue. Her eyes stung with unreleased tears. Growling, she turned to leave.
"Don't leave," Sasuke said quietly, but just loud enough that she could hear.
She turned back to him, her eyes blazing, "Why? You just told me a few minutes ago that you d me because I made my friend leave! What's with the change of heart now?!"
He looked away, "Yeah, I did," He looked back at her, seeming to have made up his mind, "You and I, we're not so different. I want power, enough power to overpower and kill my brother. And you… I'm not sure of what you want, but I can see how much you for it in your eyes." He stepped closer to her, tipping her head up to face him ((Yes, Cassie is kind of short. Well, she's taller than in real life, but shorter than Sasuke, anyway)).
She blinked up at him, her emerald orbs meeting his onyx ones, "What?"
His other arm snaked its way to her waist as his gaze held her almost hypnotically, "I mean, we are alike, Chikazi. We need each other, you and I. We need each other for what we want."
Chikazi's eyes flashed with the power-hungry looked Sasuke liked so much, "What do you need me to do in return for me getting what I want?"
Sasuke smirked, "Help me kill Itachi, Chikazi, then you can have whatever you want." He brought his face closer to hers, "Even me."
Her eyes still shone with the for power, even though her inner fangirl was screaming with happiness at that moment. "That's alright with me. He's in Akatsuki, right?"
Sasuke nodded, not sure of where this was going, "Yeah…"
She grinned, "GREAT! That means if we can find Cay-Akai, we can get a clue on where the base is."
Sasuke's eyes lit up as he put two and two together, "Well, do you know where this Cayakai went?"
Chikazi laughed, "First of all, it's Akai, and yes." She looked around trying to remember. Finding the right way, she pointed, "That way."
Sasuke's smirk widened. Turning around, he murmured, "Get on…"
Grinning, Chikazi and her inner fangirl mentally high-fived as she climbed onto his back, her hands on his shoulders.
The two sped off. After he had been running for about a mile, Sasuke suddenly stopped. Chikazi was jerked forward, "What'd you find?"
She climbed off, and Sasuke bent down. Running his hands along a body-shaped imprint on the ground, "Does this look like your friend's body?"
Chikazi knelt down next to it. Running her hands along it as well, she moaned, "Yeah. It is. , Caya, what happened to you?!"
She stood up and began to search the surrounding area.
"Sasuke-san, come here!" She yelled suddenly.
He ran over, "What'd you find?"
He found her in a clearing filled with footprints, and a clear path that the footprints had taken.
He smirked, "That's great." His smirk widened just a little. 'Itachi… I'm getting closer…'
How was it? R + R, kaythanks!
