Night: Well guys, it's been a long run, hasn't it? I'm proud to say that I'm going to finish this thing. Took me long enough, huh? It's a lot different from what I intended it to be. It was gonna be some funny stupid little fic. Now it's turned into this. Weird, right? It's time for a rescue, but we they reunite here or will there be a dramatic turn in events or will I just stall? I'm going to change the genre because it's not very humorous anymore. Hope ya'll still like it though. Read and review. Please…
Owl: Night's still down.
Day: She's been this way this she discovered that she's clinically depressed.
Dreamer: It's affecting her productivity.
Day: Maybe more reviews will help her?
Owl: It's worth a try!
OwO Nyaa~ OwO
Sasuke fidgeted in his seat. "Itachi, where are we going?"
He didn't reply.
"Okay…" He turned around and looked in the backseat. "Miyuki? Any ideas?"
She just sat there mumbling and trembling.
"Alrighty then. Thanks guys. You've been a big help. Really. You have. I mean it! You deserve a pat on the back. Go ahead! You know what?" He slammed his hand down on the back of Itachi's seat which in hindsight might not have been a very good idea because it caused him to swerve a bit, almost hitting a bicyclist. "I'm gonna give you one! So don't worry about doing it yourself." After that, he continued rambling through the tense atmosphere until the car came to a halt.
Itachi looked at Sasuke very intensely for a moment. "Now would you please just shut up! Miyuki please watch this idiot. I'm not risking getting either of you hurt."
Miyuki nodded and Sasuke glared at his brother. "First tell me where we are and what's going on!" He grabbed his wrist. "What's happening to Naruto? I was there when you spoke to Tsunade. I know something is wrong but I don't know what. Please. I just want to know."
Itachi was shocked. His brother had never shone compassion for anyone like this. A wicked smile fell upon his face. "Oh… I get it now! You wouldn't tell who the girl in your dreams was because it was a boy and not just any boy, but the poor little damsel in distress himself, Na-ru-to-kun!"
Sasuke felt his face begin to heat up, but he didn't deny it. He thought that if he didn't, his brother might explain what the hell was going on. However he was strongly mistaken. That only made Itachi want to protect his brother even more.
"I can't tell you. Trust me. It's better that way. What I'm about to do is dangerous. I need you to stay here. If I tell you what's going on, I know that you'll want to come with me. We both know that Naruto is going to need a friend like you when he gets out of this."
"Out of what?"
"That's not important. Yu-chan?"
"Did you just call me Yu-chan?" She looked at him expectantly.
He looked at her. There was hope in her eyes. "Um… yeah. Sorry about that. I don't know where that came from. You'll watch him right?"
The hope was gone and tears threatened to erupt from her eyes. "Just don't do it again… But yeah. I'll watch him." She grinned cheekily.
"I don't need watching!" Sasuke exclaimed trying to break the tense atmosphere. It worked. They both snapped their attention to him. "Now, Itachi-bastard, please go get him. Miyuki will… keep me company while you rescue the "damsel in distress"."
Itachi nodded and got out of the car, locking it before he closed his door. He walked down the street with his hands on his pockets. The place he was going was quite a few blocks away. Parking too close would have been suicide. His car was recognizable to the elders of the Akatsuki gang. The moment it was seen by the guards, they would have all been dead, or worse.
The Akatsuki was known for being one of the most brutal gangs out there. Torture was, in most cases, unavoidable. The leader was an extreme sadist, so things would sometimes become a bit… sexual.
Itachi shook his head to clear such thoughts from his mind. He had to focus. If he didn't save Naruto… no. It's too late already. That bastard acts fast. It hasn't even been a day though, so maybe it won't be as bad as it was last time. Last time…Naruto had become addicted to sex. For weeks after that he would go out on the streets and sell himself. He saw no other meaning to life. Luckily, a friend of his found him and managed to snap him out of it. But it wasn't until recently that he fully recovered from everything. Now this was threatening to take his knew start away from him. Itachi couldn't let that happen; especially not after Sasuke had started to take an interest in him. Sasuke hadn't been the same since their parents mysteriously disappeared a few years back. They needed each other. They just didn't know it yet.
He sighed and stopped walking. There it was. The Akatsuki hotel. How bold to name it after themselves. It always was about the game for him. The thrill of the possibility of getting caught. He was a very sick man. If he could even be referred to as such. There were a few things even more strange things about him however. He was only 19, a genius, and strikingly handsome. If he weren't A TOTAL NUTCASE, he'd be quite the catch.
He stared at the back of the hotel. "Now what…"
TwT Nyaa~ TwT
Sasuke stared at Miyuki. "I'm going."
"Don't be stupid," came her lightning fast reply.
"But-"
"No buts."
Sasuke sighed. "Fine. Then will you tell me how you know my brother?"
She pursed her lips and let out a clicked her tongue. "I don't know…"
"It's that or I'm going."
"You wouldn't dare. A. You'd just get yourself killed. And B. I'd stop you and you know it."
All Sasuke could do was mumble in reply. She was pretty tough. He didn't doubt that she could do some serious damage. "Will you tell me anyway?"
She sat there for a moment. "It wouldn't do any good. He obviously doesn't remember me."
"I'm curious though…" Sasuke whined.
She sighed. "I can't tell you. Not now. I'll tell you later though, but only if you stick around and don't leave the car."
He narrowed his eyes. "That's extortion."
"Not quite… but it worked, didn't it?" She laughed just a little.
"Yeah…" He replied slowly. He didn't really like it, but he really wanted to know.
She smiled and closed her eyes. "I can hear you so don't try anything."
He huffed as he crawled into the back seat with her. "You are a bitch."
"Why thank you my dear bastard." She chuckled a bit. 'How I know him…huh. Well let's see…'
OwO Nyaa~ OwO Flashback OwO Nyaa~ OwO
"Yu-kun, Yu-kun!"
"I'm not a boy! Stop using "kun"!" She grumpily spun around and narrowed her big blue eyes.
"But you are a boy! No boobs and your hair looks like a boys too!" A blonde haired boy said proudly.
She growled. "And you're supposed to be a boy? What about your hair? Doesn't it look like a girl's?"
He grabbed her by her shirt's collar and pulled her face up to rest right in front of his. "Well why don't just take a look to make sure?"
Tears welled up in her eyes. "Wha-what?"
He narrowed his eyes. "I think you heard me." He took his other hand and fumbled with the button on her pants.
She was frozen with fear. She had no idea what to do. "Please…" She choked out. For an eight year old, he was taking things a bit far. His friends only stood there chanting "Yu-kun! Yu-kun!"
She kicked her legs feebly. "Someone… help…"
He laughed hysterically as he finally got the button undone. "No one is gonna help you."
"What an idiot," someone spoke up.
"Right? Doesn't he know that prince charming always comes to save the damsel in distress?"
"Ne, Ku-kun, what do you think we should do to this guy?"
"I don't know, Ita-kun, maybe we should give him a chance first. It's always more fun when they run." He let out a laugh, but not just any laugh. Something just wasn't right about it. It was terrifying.
The blonde boy let her go, causing her to hit the ground with a soft, "Umph!"
"Kyuubi…" he said breathlessly, "And the Raven."
The Raven narrowed his eyes. "That sounded like I was an afterthought." He walked up behind the boy and whispered in his ear. "I don't think I like that very much."
"I'm sorry," the boy said, fear causing his voice to tremble, ever so slightly.
"I don't think you are," Kyuubi said, "because if you were, you would be on your knees begging for forgiveness."
The boy slowly turned around and got down on his knees. "Please forgive me." He bowed his head to hide the tears.
Kyuubi slammed his foot into the poor boy's back with a smile on his face. "Lower."
The boy got lower on the ground. "Please forgive me!" He could no longer hide the sobs in his voice.
"Stop!" The girl shouted. Even if he made her life hell, she didn't want this to happen to him. It's too much.
The Raven and Kyuubi turned to her in surprise. "Fine…" they said in unison.
"But first he should apologize to you. They all should, but unfortunately the rest took off running as soon as they heard our names." The Raven shrugged and looked at the boy expectantly as Kyuubi removed his foot from his back.
The boy stood up and faced her. He took a bow and said, "I'm very sorry." His voice was no longer shaking as much.
She smiled when, inside, she felt like punching him. "It's okay."
"Alright! Off with you now!" Kyuubi exclaimed, slapping him a bit too hard across his still-sore back.
The boy complied leaving them alone.
The girl was the first to speak. "Thank you." She was polite, maybe even a bit mature for her age.
Kyuubi bent down to her and smiled. "It's not a problem. We always help the pretty ladies."
Her face flushed slightly as the Raven slapped him across the back his head. "You're welcome." He looked away, a pale pink working its way across his face. "Your, uh, pants…"
She looked confused.
Kyuubi clarified. "We can see your panties!" He giggled.
Her face heated up pretty quickly. In no times at all it was a bright red. She quickly buttoned and zipped them back up and slapped Kyuubi.
"Ita-kun! She hit me? What did I do wrong?" he whined, all too aware of his crime.
Ita-kun squatted before her and pet her head lightly. "Sorry about him. My name is Itachi. It's nice to meet you, Yu-chan."
Her eyes widened and she smiled. "It's nice to meet you too."
"Hey don't forget about meeeeeee!" Kyuubi said.
Itachi laughed. "This is Kurama."
She smiled at him as well. "It's nice to meet you, Kurama-kun."
He blushed and mumbled, "It's nice to meet you too…"
OwO Nyaa~ OwO End Flashback OwO Nyaa~ OwO
'Of course things were different back then,' she thought to herself, 'Kurama-kun had lost it after his parents passed away, his mother in child birth and his father a week after when he was shot in a shooting at the school. I only know that because I ran into Itachi right after it happened a year later. He barely remembered me then, so why would he remember me now?' She sighed. 'Although I am a bit glad that he doesn't remember. It is slightly embarrassing.'
OwO Nyaa~ OwO
Night: Probably wasn't worth a year-long wait, was it? Sorry about that. If anyone who's been with me from the beginning is still there, please leave a review, and tell me what you think about the direction I started taking this in. If Aiko Tachibana is still reading then thank you for your support. You were my first review, and one of my first followers. ^w^ 3 Next chapter you'll get a taste of what Naruto's been dealing with. I'm possibly going to draw a cover for this, unless someone else wants to? (Please? I'm lazy. I'm decent though… Urg)
Owl: The genre and summary have been changed so check it to make sure you're still interested. Sorry it got so weird.
Day: Oh! For another announcement!
Dreamer: I need to change my account name for reasons. I'm trying to keep my accounts for different websites separate.
Night: Therefore I would like some help. :3
Owl: Something to do with cats, kittens or kitties. (Put something to do with pussy and I'll hurt you) Just something with four parts like my current one. Thank you!
