Heirs of Anubis ch.3

3 AM, OUT SIDE OF KONOHA HOSPITAL

Four shinobi- two chunnin, an ANBU and a jonnin- stood outside the building. Gaara had left for Wind country two hours ago, it was time to act. "We have to act quickly and get him out of the hospital- before anyone notices he's gone" said the Jonnin and the others agreed. Without being detected, they went inside the building, towards their target's room.

ELSEWHWERE

Four people rode on horses towards fire country- they would reach Konoha in two hours if they rode fast. The first person had sandy brown hair that was kept in a ponytail, tan skin, and what seemed to be a mix of hazel and green eyes. He wore a simple white tunic top with baggy tan cargo pants. He wore tan combat boots to complete his outfit. The next person had long braided hair as blue as the sky, if only a little darker. She was scantily clad; what appeared to be a bra made of ice cupped her breast and her bottom was clothed in a barely see through hip scarf; a mockery of an attempt to cover her blue panties. She had bangles, bracelets, and rings on her arms and legs. Her pale blue skin shone in the moonlight and her blue eyes were as cold as the air around her. The third had pale skin and grey eyes. Her long black hair was held up in a bun and had small silver ornaments hanging from it. Her outfit matching Kyoto, the fourth person. The ride was relatively quiet.

Suddenly the black haired one, Selene, stopped "We're being followed" she said quietly. The other riders stopped as well; Kyoto dismounted her horse while the others stayed mounted. "You and your friends are fast, Itachi, I'll give you that, but you all suck at hiding." Kyoto's companions tensed as Itachi and four other members of Akatsuki came out of the dense veil of the trees. The Uchiha walked closer to the red head and all was silent as they continued to stare at each other. She knew he only wished to accompany them because of his attraction to her son, and she didn't mind- maybe Itachi could fix what his brother did. But first she had to test him, to see if he was worthy enough to protect and love her baby. She laughed as she looked at Shukaku. Finally, Kyoto sighed "Fine, just remember that there's only one pace," she began "mine" Shukaku finished and they sped off. Horses from Demon Country were fast and no one was a faster rider than Shukaku, Shiva, Selene and Kyoto. If these men wanted to serve them, they needed to prove themselves. Sure, they had managed to follow the and stay on their trail for 5 minutes, at the speed Kyoto and her companions were riding, it was admirable. But if they were strong enough to keep up with Shukaku or least herself, maybe she wouldn't kill the pesky little human for wasting her time. Selen suddenly stoped, forcing the others to stop as well. "What is it?" Kyoto asked with worry. "I heard the dead. The spirit world prepares a festival for the coming of a prince. Violets they're gatering violets, but the violets are bleeding and surrounded by fire." the red head had a look of pure horror on her face as she muttered somthing in a differnt language to the horse she was on, then sped off faster the ever.

In Oto..

Sasuke tried to sleep, but he couldn't. The guilt of leaving Naruto to die weighed heavy on his heart. He got up with the intention of training until he passed out. Suddenly, he felt a sort of pull on his consciousness and he tried to fight it. It proved to be feeble, for within seconds, he was out.

The young avenger woke up in a snowy forest, only it wasn't cold and the sky was a crystal blue. Sasuke stood and looked around. He was surprised to see Naruto standing a few yards for him with his back facing him. This was his chance, he had to apologize for what he did. "Naruto!" he called out as be he ran to the boy. Something was off, Naruto did even respond to his name being called as if he hadn't heard. The closer Sasuke got to the blond, the boy's form began to shift and change until finally, someone with long black hair stod in front of him. "Who are you?" the boy had turned to face him and Sasuke gasped. The boy- he could tell it was a boy because he was shirtless- had amethyst eyes that were as innocent as Naruto, even the whisker marks were like Naruto's and his smile was like the blonds'. The boy laughed.

"You know me, Sasuke." His voice was as soft and serene as the snow around them. Every rational part of Sasuke told him that he didn't know this boy, but….

"Naruto?" the boy nodded. "So much has changed since you left. Even my name is different, it's Davahko, but I guess it'd be easier to call me Dava; it's what Gaara calls me. Come sit with me." He moved to an old knocked down tree; the long black silk skirt he wore blew in the wind as he moved and the jewelry he wore jingled softly. Sasuke sat down on the log,his friend- if he still deserved to call him that- sat on the snow with hi head lying on the Uchiha's lap, who then took to running his fingers through the long black silk. "Where are we?" Sasuke asked. "We're in your subconscious, it looks like this because your guilt of trying to kill me overshadows your hatred for your brother, were it the other way around, we would be in a boat in the middle of a hurricane." Sasuke hung his head down "I'm sorry, I left you to die even after what you said- I left you. I dont deserve to be forgiven" Davahko smiled " I've forgiven you already. And when I said I loved you, it was not like a wife would love her husband. Rather, as one would love a brother or best friend- how a captive loves their savior. Whether you know it or not Sasuke, you have helped keep me alive for years; just by being seeen with me, you protected me and for that reason alone I know that I am safe with you no matter what. You are my most precious person."

It was silent for a while. Sauke looked at Dava only to see him staring blankly at something, his violet eyes were unfocused and the suddenly, he sat up- no longer resting his head on Sasuke. "What is it?" the Uchiha was concerned when he heard the former blonde gasp as if in pain. Purple met black " i can't stay long. Sasuke, no matter what happens, you have to stay in Oto and promise me that you will forgive your brother." the Uchiha was confused and angry "Why the hell should I forgive him! He's taken everything away from me!" Davahko looked at the Uchiha with tears in his eyes and brought his hands up to show them to Sasuke. There marks on his wrist as if he had been tied up, his palms had cuts on them-someone had stabbed his hands. Sasuke lookd at his friend there were bruises on hi face and his lip was bleeding, but there was a purple cresent moon mark on the center of his fore head and it seemed to glow. The next sentence that came out of the boy's mouth was like pistol whipping a blind baby.

" Because, I'm diying and your brother will save me."
