Chapter Three- Magenkyou Nightmare

Blue eyes darted to the left and to the right. This wasn't his home, he was sure of it. Red velvet draped over almost everything in the room, and the scent was ridiculously familiar to him. He looked to his hands, and handcuffs bound his wrists.

"Wha? Those weren't there a second ago. . ." he observed. He looked up and opened his mouth to scream, but his voice was caught in his throat. Blood stained the walls suddenly, dripping like wet ink. Bodies, chained, were hanging limply from the walls, some impaled on various objects in the room, blood pooling in below the bodies.

His mouth was suddenly gagged, and his only garment was a pair of handcuffs, adorned with thick, cold chains, and while he sat on the bed, which for the record was also covered in velvet, the blanket on top off it covered only his shins, leaving the rest of his body cold and helpless against anything that may come against him. He tried to scrunch up, but the chains on his body restricted most movement.

This was Naruto's worst nightmare. But no, things were about to get much, much worse. And fast.

"Prepare to die, kyuubi." a dark voice announced from an unknown area in the room. The figure, that held ruby red eyes that were undeniably familiar, shot up from his hiding place and drew his katana, nearly be heading the leaf nin on contact. Frightened tears began to well up in the boys eyes. He spotted something pastel colored on his so-deemed killers back. He tried to tell him, but only succeded in making several grunts and groans, because the ball gag still muffled his face.

"Hn?" His opponent questioned, eyeing the kyuubi vessel suspiciously as he attempted to speak. he lowered his katana after about thirty seconds.

"Ah. I see." he removed the ball gag from Naruto and it hug loosely from his neck. Itachi watched in mild sadistic amusement as the boy tried to catch his hurried breaths.

"Um...there is a sign...on...your back.." Naruto heaved, sweat beading on his body. Itachi raised an eyebrow quizically as he reached behind him to pluck the note off of his back. He successfully retrieved the note, and read it aloud to himself.

"Kick me." he blankly stared at the note as the words left his mouth. Naruto was struggling a great deal not to burst out laughing, because he figured that since he was with an Uchiha, it would make his punishment only worse. Itachi crumpled up the paper angrily and he tossed it aside.

"Damn that Deidara." he muttered. "Anyway, lets get back to buisiness, shall we?" he asked. Well, it was more of a demand the way he said it, but the question mark had to be dismissed somehow. He put the cold katana blade to Naruto's neck again, and Naruto gulped, thinking of ways to buy time.

"Uhm, aren't going to gag me again?" Naruto requested, it would only be for a few seconds, but hey, it bought time. Itachi put the palm of his empty hand onto his forehead and he sighed heavily.

"Oh...FINE." Itachi pulled the gag from Naruto's neck and released it on his mouth. It would have knocked him off the bed if he wasn't chained up like so. Itachi bent over to stare into Naruto's eyes as he drug his katana limply over Naruto's exposed torso. Naruto bit down on the ball gag that held his mouth, the blade was like a razor, cold and sharp on his firm skin. Itachi felt the need to dig in deeper, coaxing blood from the Inscision on Naruto's chest.

Naruto tried to scream, but only muffled mews of pain leaked through the gag. Itachi snickered, and it was one drenched in deadly and impure malice.

"I am going to kill you..." he cooed affectionatly in a sing-song voice, bringing his katana to his lips which formed into a twisted and evil grin.

"Nice and slow...so I can fully enjoy your muffled cries of pain." he finished, tongue leaving his mouth, and sweeping away the blood that coated it presently.

"Yummy..." he purred. Naruto's pupils dialated, if anything else, and Itachi moved in to he and the kyuubi vessel were in each others eyes.

"When did you learn to taste so SWEET?!" A wicked and morphed grin leapt onto Itachi's face as he raised his katana. His eyes gleamed dangerously as he brought down his katana on Naruto...!

"Yah!" Naruto bolted upright in his bed, sweating and shaking with tearless sobs of fear. He looked around him at the plain white walls that decorated his room. He ripped open his shirt, and saw no scars. He released a sigh of relief, although his stomach did hurt.

"Was it just a dream?" the boy pondered, scratching his head.

From the bushes, a pair of familiar sharingan eyes reformed to a regular crimson.

"Sir leader said we had other thing to attend to." his parter said in a gruff voice. Itachi's blind eyes shifted to face his partner.

"I couldn't kill him in time." Itachi bluntly stated, signaling that the magenkyou sharingan hadn't been a success.

"Well, if nothing else, you sure scared the hell out of him." Kisame grunted, trying to lighten the tenstion. Itachi nodded ruefully.

"We will have other oppertunities." Itachi said, glancing back at Naruto's house one more time before disappearing entirly.
