...
The two blondes quickly went to the locked door, unlocked it, and walked in. The room had headless statues, and boxes. Lots and lots of boxes. "Maybe we should search the boxes for something useful?" Still holding Naruto's hand Mary turned to look at him. "Yea.." The blonde boy shook her hand off and started digging in boxes making quiet a mess in the room as he did. Mary just stood over his shoulder and watched him search, this was irritating him but in the end if he found something to save Sasuke he could get all the glory.. Wait. Why was he being this selfish over that bastard? Shaking his head he moved to the other side of the room and looked in more boxes, this time Mary got to the stack of boxes next to him and pulled out a pallete knife. "Naruto.. Do you think this would work?" Mary questioned, holding the knife up, he turned around and backed up a little. "Woah woah woah Mary! When you hold a knife you point it down! You could've knicked me with it! Just put the knife away it wont help us. Those roots are stone." Naruto was surprised at this girl. Finding a knife like that and honestly thinking it'd cut the roots? He wwatched he from the corner of his eyes and saw her lay it delicately back in the box. Weird. Once Naruto moved to the last stack of boxes Mary gave up on looking and watched him. If Sasuke was here he'd be helping him look.. Nothing was in the box and he stood up. "Mary I couldn't fin-" The blonde was cut off by the lights shutting off. There was the sound of shuffling, then her felt Mary gently grasp his arm and held onto it. Then the lights turned back on. "Naruto lets just get out of here." He nodded and they made they're way to the door. Mary gasped. One if the headless statues have moved and was now blocking the door that would take them to Sasuke. "H-how did that move?" Mary held onto Naruto's arm a little tighter. Once again Naruto had to shake her off and try to push the statue. It wouldn't move! It wouldn't even tip. "Naruto it seems we'll just have to find another way to get back to Sasuke.." the young girl said apologetically but there was something gleeming in her eyes, Naruto tried to study what it was but she grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the room. The two ended up in a room of stair cases with the lights flickering like strobe lights. Mary clutched harder onto the older blonde's arm. "Naruto I'm scared." She looked at him with no emotion on her face. That confused him. As they walked up the next flight of stairs there was a red ball bouncing down. Naruto stopped and watched as the ball bounced down past him, reached the bottom, and splattered on the wall. That was.. Just dumb.. As the walked by the wall to get too the door yellow writing appeared on the wall. Creepy things like; 'I want you to have fun, Naruto' 'Come to a fun world without any adults.' 'We'll be together.' 'You, me, and our friends.'. The older shuddered deeply. And quickly guided Mary in front of him so she could walk through the door first. Only so he'd look like a gentleman, but also so if something popped out, he wouldn't have to piss himself. They ended up in a room with a huge hole in the floor. "Naruto.. Do you think Sasuke is okay?" Asked, tugging on the blondes uniform. "Psh. Sasuke can take care of himself so don't worry!" He gloated through clenched teeth, knowing she knew he was beyond worried for the other. Mary frowned at this but knodded either way making her free hand into a fist so tight, he knuckles turned white from pressure.
~~~Now back to Sasuke~~~
The raven was pacing back and forth in what little of a hall was left for him. Those two were sure taking their time, it's felt like hours have gone by. He stood by the roots, trying to look at the door they went through. "NARUTO! MARY! ARE Y'ALL OKAY?!" He yelled, mainly concered for Naruto, not the strange girl named Mary. "Damnit... No answer.." Sasuke cursed and turned around to the only accesible door to him. "I'm just going to have to look for a way out in there..." He shuddered. He did NOT like that room. The raven opened the door and walked in. Dolls. Nothing but creepy blue skin, black mop hair, trashy made dolls with blood red eyes. They were sitting on shelves, hanging by their necks with red rope from the ceiling. It was just plain awful. Sasuke walked around quickly trying to find a way out without touching anything, especially the dolls. While he did so it felt as if they were watching his every step. He walked to the book shelf and saw a faint light coming over the corners. He pulled out the shelf and found a way out. "Yessss!" Sasuke literally threw himself into the hole in the wall and got out. The raven was now in a purple room, there was a square hole in and floor and plenty of chains on the north wall. On the wall in front of him there was purple writing. 'There is no exit. There is no reason.' The boy scoffed. "Of course there is an exit." This place was trying to trick him, make him lose hope there's a way out. "If there's a way in there's a way out." The raven snorted and walked to the door in the room. Locked. Uhg! What is with all these locked doors! Sasuke walked to the square hole in the floor and observed it, seemed like some puzzle.. Standing up straight he went to the chains hanging from the wall. He pulled the first one on the right, a mannequin head fell from the ceiling and broke on the floor causing him to jump back in surprise. He pulled the second one and jumped back, expecting something bad to happen. The only thing that happened was a click sound, but nothing else. He was a bit wary to pull the other two and stood there to think if he should or should, but that didn't work well 'cause all he could think about was Naruto and the strange blonde girl.
~~~~Naruto and Mary~~~~
They were just standing in front of the hole wondering how they were going to pass over it when out of no where the painting on the wall slid down the wall and over the hole on the floor. All the two could do was stand there and stare at the painting while it literally stared back at them. "Uh.. Naruto.. I think it wants us to cross." Mary whispered uncertainly. Naruto held his hand out, signalling for her to stay while he walked across to make sure it was ok to cross. "Ok, it's safe Mary come on." She crossed quickly and stood next to Naruto, the blonde walked to a card board box, prepared to look in it when he knelt but Mary yanked him back. "Can't you hear that? There's something in there. Don't look in it." She hissed. "Oh.. Okay I'm sorry Mary.." he studdered. This girl was starting to freak him out. Standing up he noticed something behind her and looked at it. It was blue and square so he picked it up to observe it more. What the hell is this thing? Mary saw him holding the strange object and walked toward him to look at it herself but tripped, knocking into Naruto, and causing him to fling the object into the hole. Great.. "Ow!... You okay Mary?" He asked and got up then helped her up gently. "Y-yea.. I'm sorry Naruto. I guess now all we can do is proceed." She smiled gleefully grabbed Naruto and began walking. He sighed, what was with this girl and moving forward? What about Sasuke?
~~~~Sasuke~~~~
After the unidentified object that fell from the ceiling almost killed him Sasuke stared at it. It matched the hole in the floor so he lifted it and dropped it in, the locked door unlocked and opened. He ended up in a series of halls with a doll that had writing next to it requesting him to pick it up and be friends. He rejected the doll plent of times but it continued to follow him, this was very frustrating. Finally he reached a door but the door was blocking his way. He shoved it aside and conitnued on finding himself in a room FULL of puzzles and riddles.
~~~~Naruto and Mary~~~~
After hours of figuring out puzzles, unlocking doors, flooding a room, and getting rid of deadly red gas Naruto and Mary now stood in front of their only way out.. That was blocked.. Naruto sat against a wall thinking while Mary was walking around aimlessly. He was still confused about Mary's questioning from before...
...
"Naruto?" The young blue eyed blonde asked cutely. "Is Sasuke your brother?"
Naruto choked on some inhaled air, "What?! No! He's a guy from school!"
"Oh.. He's not your friend?"
"No.. Well.. I don't know..."
"Oh.. I'm sorry.."
Then after that while we were trying to get out of that room she asked me another quetion that confused me..
"Naruto.. If you could get out with me or Sasuke, who would you choose?" Mary stared at him in the face, her eyes held no emotion but her face showed how serious she was.
"W-what? What do you mean Mary? We're all going to get out! So don't worry!" He nervously laughed, hoping to make her feel better, but it failed.
"No. I mean.. If only me or him could get out with you.. Who would you chose to go with you?" She bowed her head a bit, her blonde bangs hiding her face.
"W-well.. Honestly.. I'd choose Sasuke.. I live in the same town and go to the same school with him, so if he went missing it'd automatically be my fault.." That was his explaination for her but his true feelings were 'I just don't want to be without him.'
"Oh.." She sighed, looked up with a big smile that looked forced. "Okay thats fine Naruto!"
...
He was honestly confused on why she was asking those questions and why she was acting this way. Getting up he stretched and looked around Mary was staring straight at him. "Naruto.. You'll never leave me a lone right?" She questioned dully. "I wont leave you Mary.. Are you okay?" He hesitently reched out for the girl but took his hand back when she started laughing darkly. "Mary! Yes MY NAME IS MARRRRYYYY!" She gave a throaty laugh and walked hastly to the hall they've come from. Worried Naruto followed after her, she was crouched to the floor laughing and repeating, "In my way in my way in my WAY!" "Mary.. What's in your-" He quickly held his hand over his mouth watching Mary continuosly stab a mannequin head on the floor with the pallete knife he thought she put away, red paint spewing from each new gash and slash. He slowly backed away and ran out. This girl was completely off her rocker he couldn't believe this! Quickly grabbing for the extra key he found while Mary was distracted Naruto unlocked the last door in the room and ran in, closed the door and rested against the opposite wall. Panting he held onto his chest. He didn't want to leave Mary like that but she was completely insane. The door slowly opened and he watched with wide eyes, his faced paled when Mary walked in. A sadistic smile with red paint like blood crawling down her dress, arms, and dripped from her hands and knife. The blonde boy gulped, his entire body was paralyzed and shaking in fear. Mary slowly took one step by one. "Naruto.." She started nausiatingly sweet. "You said you would never leave ME!" She screamed at him, holding the knife up threateningly. He stared into her eyes: Fear, Pain, Anger. A mass if negative emotions flashed through those eyes. Mary now stood only a foot away from Naruto, knife positioned and ready. "You will never leave me now... Never ever ever.. We're going to be together for ever RIGHT NARUTO!" She jumped for the blonde and all he could do was clench his eyes closed, small tears escaped and fell down his scarred cheeks. This was it. He was going to die. "I'm sorry for leaving you behind Sasuke.." "Sasuke.." Naruto whimpered.
"NARUTO!"
The blonde heard a thud and looked up, there he was saving him from this crazy girl. "S-Sasuke?!" He slid down the wall in disbelief, tears now rolling down his cheeks in a large flow. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! YOU SHOULD HAVE WAITED LIKE YOU WERE TOLD TO!" Mary screeched, fighting against Sasuke, not letting go of the knife in her hand no matter what he did. "You crazy bitch. I know what you really are!" With that Sasuke threw her hard enough that she hit the wall and was knocked out. Sasuke quickly knelt down to Naruto and pulled him into a tight embrace. "Naruto I'm so sorry, are you hurt anywhere?" The raven pulled back and seached Naruto for injuries, pulled him into a hug, then check him for injuries again. Naruto held onto Sasuke tightly and cried. He almost died.. But he didn't. Sasuke saved him. "S-Sasuke, how'd you know we were here..?" Naruto pulled back and wiped his tears away, never noticing Sasuke was holding his hand. "When I didn't hear from either of y'all I decided to try and find my way out. I did but near the end I found a book about Guertena's art. I found Mary in the book." The raven hissed then pulled Naruto up and walked by the unconcious Mary, he picked up her yellow rose and held it out to Naruto. The blonde boy grabbed it then gasped. It was fake! It felt like paper.. Sasuke started pulling him out of the room and Naruto dropped the rose by Mary. Walking away from the dangerous area and blocking all the doors they could Naruto would not leave Sasuke's hand. "Naruto.." Sasuke stopped and turned around. "From now on, we don't believe anyone. We don't leave each others sides." With that said he embraced Naruto in a soft hug, the younger hugged him back, softly nuzzling his shirt. He felt safe in the olders arms, as if he belonged there. He was a bit confused by how Sasuke was acting. "...Sasuke.. Were you worried.. Because you like me?" The raven was taken a back from it and his face reddened quickly. He turned away and cleared his throat. "I was worried because you had a crazy bitch holding a knife at you Dobe!" Has Naruto finally found out? Or was he trying to psych him out? He was hugged from behind, and this made him even more nervous. "You followed me home as if you were a stalker. You followed me at school because you were worried. Your always watching me from the back of the class room. You don't like me.. You love me." The blonde said as a matter of factly. "I don't love you Sasuke.." The raven bowed his head, may the brooding begin. "But," He raised his head confused and turned around to look at Naruto. "But?" The blonde was blushing, his face was a deadly shade of red. "But.. I do.. Maybe.. Sorta.. Kindalikeyoualot." Naruto stuttered the first bit but the last he spat out int one breath. "...What." Sasuke had not understood any of that. "Can you repeat that?" Naruto smacked his own forehead. "I LIKE YOU A LOT!"
