Sex It Up! Chapter Eight
OOOOOOO
A/N: Hello everyone! I was watching Curious George on tv (I only get three channels) and suddenly I had an epiphany of how to start the next chapter! Yay! Go me!
By the way, my editor and me are fighting right now. I kinda did something that hurt her…anyway, I apologize that she is gone, and I will hopefully get the situation resolved as soon as possible so we can have her back!
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto
OOOearlier that yearOOO
The two bodies floated in the rough waters, the current carrying them downstream. Soon, a bend appeared and Haku opened his eyes slowly before reaching for his love, Zabuza. He fought the tide fiercely, dragging the older man behind him until finally, they were both on shore.
Despite getting to shore, Haku knew time was not on their side. He tried hard to fight to stay awake, however the fight for their lives and the fight against the water had drained him too much and his eyes slowly started to close. The last thing he managed to see was a group of people coming out of the forest.
OOOOOOO
Zabuza let out a growl as he picked up his sword, stepping in between the villagers and the rabid Harif. "Stay back," he yelled over the beasts roar before he launched himself at the animal.
Harifs are giant creatures with heads much like a dogs but standing on a humanoid bull like body. Their skin is a dark black and their eyes glow red. Rare as they are, they are also deadly. However, the fight ended almost without casualty, with only a long gash along his arm for Zabuza's proof of the victory.
"Thank you, Master Zabuza," An elder stepped forward, bowing to the younger man. "If it wasn't for you, that beast would have killed us all."
Zabuza snorted as he strapped his sword to his back. "If it wasn't for you, I would be dead. My debt cannot be repaid by defeating one fiend."
The elder tipped his head again, "As it is, you have our thanks."
After Haku had pulled them ashore, inhabitants of a local village had found them. Their elders were medicine men and had healed the two fighters. Ever since then, Zabuza had sworn to protect them the villagers.
The used-to-be assassin sighed as he walked through the village. Lately, he had been spending more and more time helping people. He knew that the compassionate feelings that were inside him now were a result of his charge, Haku. Watching the boy almost die for him had been almost too much for the wave nin. And now, he couldn't stop thinking that his life, one now filled with protecting people he used to kill, was better then it ever had been.
"Do you need help, Naruto?"
Zabuza's eyes snapped to the two teens looking into the shop. Quickly, he hid behind a building as he realized whom the blonde one was. He was the boy with the fox spirit, the one who had almost killed Haku.
"Zabuza-sama, what are you doing?" It was the elder again, looking at Zabuza like he was crazy.
"Take-sama, these people must leave." His voice was cold and crisp like when he was an assassin. "They are here to collect me for a past live that I am not proud of."
Take looked at the two boys and nodded, obviously confused at Zabuza's voice. The only time he had heard the man talk like this was when he had fist woken from his coma. "I shall ask them to leave at once, Zabuza-sama."
OOOOOOO
"I don't get it, Kakashi-sensei. Why did we have to leave?" Naruto whined as the group walked away from the village. After purchasing Hinata's gift, the elder of the village had collected all of their team and told them they were not welcome.
Sasuke, who was standing far away from Sakura, snorted. "Isn't it obvious? The only reason for them to not want us here, is that they have something they don't want us to find."
"We just have to find out if it's what we're looking for." The younger brother added, "We can try to come back tonight?"
Kakashi nodded his head, "Yes, we should do that. Also, there was a tall building, it looked recently added. We should check it out."
The small group walked the rest of the trip in silence, making camp near the village. As soon as it was dark, they headed back quietly, making not one sound.
"Naruto, you and Rior get in through the upstairs," Kakashi whispered as they came upon the house, "Sasuke, I want you and Sakura to enter from the downstairs; I'll try the cellar."
Everyone nodded and off they went. Sasuke and Sakura stood outside the downstairs window, peering in to make sure the coast was clear.
"You know, Sasuke, you're such a jerk," Sakura whispered, using her charka to unlock the window.
"Stay focused. We'll talk later." He hissed back as he climbed in. He then offered her his hand, but she refused, scrambling in the window by herself.
"When? You've been ignoring me all day!" She growled back in response as they scanned the empty room.
"Sakura just…shut up. You're so annoying sometimes. We are on a mission."
The two ninja moved onto the next room before clearing it too and heading into the dimly lit kitchen. "Annoying? Want to know what annoying is? You kissed me, now you're acting like I did something wrong. That's annoying,"
"Why is it there are two intruders in my home? I would think that that is annoying myself,"
The two leaf nin gasped and turned around sharply to see the object of their mission standing in the doorway, sword on his back and blood in his eyes.
OOOOOOO
Rior opened the window with ease and scoffed at the lack of security. "Not even a lock," He muttered under his breath as he and Naruto climbed into the small bedroom. On the bed there was a figure laying on it's back, the rising of the wool blanket proof of it's breathing.
"Rior, it's Haku," Naruto gasped, walking over to the bed.
Haku's hair was mused and tangled and had grown longer. His cheeks were deathly pale; his breathing was slower then it should have been. He wasn't moving or stirring despite the two ninja standing before him.
"Quiet or you'll wake him," Rior hissed, grabbing Naruto's arm and pulling him away from the deadly boy.
Haku still did not stir from his slumber, however.
"I…don't think so," Naruto whispered, walking back to the bed and wiping the hair from Haku's face, "I don't think he's been awake for a while."
Suddenly, there was a crash from downstairs and the two boys shot off like rabbits, finding the stairs and taking them three at a time until they were in a kitchen. Zabuza had his sword drawn and was clashing with Sasuke, who was having trouble using his Demon Wind Shuriken as a shield.
Quickly, Rior pulled out his kunai and threw them at Zabuza, who disappeared, only to reappear behind the youngest Uchiha. Rior growled and pulled out another kunai, clashing the small weapon with Zabuza's own big one. Surprisingly, the small teen pushed back with unseen force, knocking the older off balance. Swiftly, Rior pulled another kunai from his pouch and lashed it like a whip, causing it to grow in size. He wrapped the deadly sharp chain around Zabuza's neck and yanked the more experienced man to the ground, forcing him to his knees.
Zabuza panted. It had been too long since he had a real fight. The four genin were too much for him, and he knew that once Kakashi arrived, he was done for. "Why," he rasped out, mindful of the sharp edges. "Why have you come for me now?"
Kakashi snorted as he walked into the room from the cellar. "You are a wanted man, Zabuza. Faking your death was good thinking, but you should have lied low from killing for a little longer."
Zabuza coughed as the chain around his neck was loosened after his hands were tied together. "The only killing I've been doing is Harifs and the occasional beasts that plague this village."
The five ninja stood in silence, trying to figure out if Zabuza was lying or not. His voice was cold and bitten, but his eyes told a different story. It showed the truth.
"What happened to Haku?" Naruto asked after a few minutes of silence.
Zabuza glared at him, "He's in a coma. Take-sama does not think there is hope for him, but I refuse to believe he gave his life for me."
It was quiet again, then, it was Sasuke who spoke softly, "Sakura…you can heal him…"
Sakura blushed and shook her head, "Not only is that illegal, but…I'm not experienced in healing this type of thing. Sure that little thing I did in the woods earlier might work, but I haven't perfected it, and it's side effects are…well…you know, it might not be safe."
"But you could try right?" Zabuza tried to stand, however Rior pushed his shoulder, keeping him on the floor. "I am willing to be taken away if you at least attempt to heal him."
Sakura blushed once more and looked to Kakashi, "Well, what do you think, sensei?"
Kakashi rubbed his chin as he looked over Zabuza, who was glaring up at him. The man seemed different, broken in a way. The copycat Nin remembered how he had acted back on the bridge after Haku had almost died. Could the killer have changed so much in the past few months?
"Alright, let's try it."
OOOOOOO
Haku was floating. His eyes were closed and his arms were spread wide. He had been floating for a long time now; it felt as if he had always been floating. It was so relaxing, lying on his cloud, not a care in the world. He didn't want to wake up, didn't want to go back, he just wanted to lay there forever.
'Isn't there someone I'm supposed to be with?' The thought trickled through his mind, but no names occurred to him. He had been floating for so long that he couldn't remember his life before floating.
'Isn't there someone I'm supposed to protect?' This thought sounded familiar, but still, no one came to mind and Haku relaxed again.
'Isn't there someone…I'm supposed to love?' At this, Haku's eyes snapped open and he was no longer floating. Instead he was falling into a black nothingness, and a scream erupted from his lips. He reached out, but there was nothing for him to grab. Terror filled him as he remembered himself. He wanted to get back, but he couldn't find the way out of the blackness, couldn't find his way out of the terrifying abyss.
Suddenly, he felt an inhuman rush of joy and happiness. Looking above him, he found a bright pink light. He reached up, but found he could not obtain the light. Slowly, he stopped falling and stood on nothingness, staring at the light that shone with bliss. The light descended upon him and he closed his eyes gently, a sigh of pleasure escaping his lips. When he opened his eyes again, he found six pairs of eyes staring hopefully at him.
"Haku," Zabuza called out breathily. The other mans voice was ecstasy to Haku's ears. Slowly, he reached up and grabbed the older man, bringing him in for a kiss. He was surprised more when Zabuza participated fully, tenderness engulfing his lips.
Once the two pulled away, Haku blushed, "Zabuza," his voice was rash and horse for not being used in so long, "I was floating…but I remembered I was supposed to love you,"
The older man's eyes looked heart broken, "Haku," His voice cracked, "I have to leave,"
"No," Kakashi cut him off, "Come on team seven. The old Zabuza and Haku are long gone, and I don't think they are coming back."
OOOOOOO
Silence was profound throughout the group on the long journey home. Sasuke stared at the ground, glaring hard as he lost himself in thought; rare for him unless he was thinking about his past and his older brother. However, this was not something on his mind right now. The only thing he could think of was Sakura.
He had kissed her.
Sasuke had kissed Sakura.
Sure he had a crush on her for a while now, however; he knew he could not act upon it. He could not afford to get close to anyone. It was his destiny to find his brother and kill him for what he had done. But what about after that? He had never thought about after his brother was dead, only about killing his brother. Would he go back to Konoha? Would his friends still be his friends? Would he have children and continue the Uchiha line? If so, he needed to find someone that could live up to the Uchiha name. Sakura definitely couldn't do that. She was beautiful, just like all Uchiha women, but she had a different kind of heart.
She wanted to heal people, not fight them. Uchiha's were proud fighters, every last one of them. But, if she were the first in the new line, then maybe, just maybe, it would be ok. He could train their children to fight, and when they were old enough, he could arrange marriages for them. It would be, pleasant-
Sasuke cut himself off at the thought and his eyes darted to Sakura. He couldn't. He knew he couldn't. He had to focus. He had to find and kill his brother. Hatred swarm throughout his heart and it was what he needed. He needed to feel the darkness, to rest in it every night. Hatred was the thing that forced him to keep going and to get stronger. He would find his brother, and his hatred would make sure of it.
"Sasuke," Rior stepped in line next to his brother. "What are you thinking of?"
The older of the two shook his head. "Nothing. Just want to get home." His voice was calm, however, his eyes did not leave the pink hair nin walking in front of him.
Her head was hung low, and Sasuke could feel how sad she was. It was rolling off her in waves, and he regretted kissing her. He didn't know what had happened that day. It must have been the healing energy from her charka. It had taken his hatred away—hatred wasn't even an illness though, was it?—and replaced it with bliss. And when she had spoke, she sounded like an angel and he hadn't been able to control himself from doing what he had been wanting to do for a month now, ever since he had almost died by the hands of Haku. The near dead experience had changed him. True, it had made him realize how much stronger he needed to be; it also made him realize that he could die. Life was short, and he so desperately wanted to live it to the fullest while he still could.
Sakura suddenly turned her head and looked back at him and he realized he was staring. With a slight blush, he turned his head away from her and glared at the ground once more.
She blushed too, staring at him for a few seconds before turning back around. Her heart was pounding so loud in her chest that she could swear everyone could hear it as clear as a bell. He's shy, or maybe he doesn't want to get hurt! She thought to herself in triumph. I should make the next move! To show him I won't hurt him!
"We'll stop her for the night." Kakashi announced, stopping in his walk. Naruto, who wasn't paying attention, almost ran into his back. "Set up camp. Rior, you check the perimeter."
Rior nodded and set down his travel pack, disappearing in the woods. First, he searched the woods thoroughly, once he was sure there was no one following them, he decided to check out the river he found a few hundred feet away. It was small, but deep enough to swim in. He contemplated taking a quick dive to relax himself when suddenly, a hand wrapped around his mouth from behind and he was held tightly by a strong grip.
"Hello, dear brother." Itachi spoke in a calm, relaxed voice.
Rior growled and moved quickly, jumping and smashing the back of his skull into Itachi's face. He then kicked his older brother in the gut, pushing away from his body with the force of the kick. Once he was out of his brother's grasp, he drew a his weapon.
Using his Sharingan, Rior could already see that this wasn't his brother. However, no one in the group knew he could already use his bloodline trait, and he used it to his advantage. Only taking a peep, he could tell who the Itachi look alike really was.
Drawing his whip kunai, he lashed it out, and missed catching the Itachi look alike in the face. The Itachi look alike narrowed his eyes, and then smiled a mischievous smile before disappearing in a puff of smoke and reappearing as Kakashi.
Rior's eyes widened intentionally, before hardening into a glare as he drew back his whip. "What the fuck was this about, Kakashi!? Did you think that it was funny?" He roared in mock anger, storming past him as Sasuke appearing, weapon drawn.
"What happened?" He questioned, his voice strained.
"Our sensei's an ass, that's what happened." Rior growled before making his way back to camp. He couldn't help but wonder what provoked Kakashi to pose as his brother. Was he really suspicious enough on his own, or could there be something else?
Rior smiled smally as he saw Sakura and Naruto fussing over his tent, trying to set it up from him. He leaned against a tree and watch the two argue before finally, Sakura punched him in the jaw and he obeyed her. He could see why Sasuke had a crush on her, but he knew of Sasuke's internal conflict.
"Thanks," Rior spoke, pushing off of the tree and walking over to the two as they finished. "By the way, nice right hook, Sakura-chan." He commented before disappearing in his tent with his belongings.

Naruto sighed as Hinata cuddled closer to him as they gazed up at the stars. The wind blew gentle, and he had to admit, he wasn't looking at the stars as much as he was looking at the beautiful nin in his arms. Slowly, unsure, he cupped her chin and turned her to face him before planting a feather light kiss on her lips-
Kyuubi purred at the dream. Now, this is no fun. He thought to himself, too soft core. This is more like it… Slowly, he changed the dream the dream to something he found more…suitable.
Naruto blinked as Hinata climbed on top of him, both of their clothing gone. He could feel her heat above his throbbing need as she kissed and nipped at his neck while grinding her hips onto his. He groaned and threw his head back, trying to still her rocking.
"Hinata, god, you'll be the death of me! We don't have to do this!" Lust powered his body now, however, and he flipped them over to get more control. His eyes glowed in heat as he looked over he naked form and he bent down to take one perky, pink nipple into his mouth. He relished the taste of her skin and the feeling of her thrusting up into his mouth, crying out in her pleasure. It was like euphoria to his ears. He moved his mouth to the next nipple, nipping at it, sucking, until he was satisfied. He moved back up her body slowly, licking across her color bone and biting gently at her neck.
"Please, Naruto-kun!"
"Time to wake up," Sakura's voice invaded his dreams.
Slowly, the Kyuubi holder blinked open his blue eyes and glared at Sakura's shadowy figure outside his tent. "I'm awake!" He growled back, trying to will his hard on away.
The pink haired girl moved on, walking over to Sasuke's tent. She opened her mouth to call out to him, however, changed her mind. Noticing Kakashi gone, most likely to the river, and Naruto not out of his tent yet, she opened Sasuke's tent and step inside, shutting it behind her. "Sasuke-kun, its time to wake up-" she started to whisper.
Sasuke's eyes snapped open and he pounce on her form, which was leaning over him, pinning her under him on his mat; a kunai was at her throat and her eyes widened. "Sakura?" He panted, all his muscles still tense.
"Sasuke, I'm sorry!" She whispered. However, inside, her heart was pounding at the thought of him pinning her to his bed.
Sasuke removed the kunai, however didn't make any attempt to get off her, "Why are you in my tent?" He questioned, leaning down to nuzzle her neck. He had been dreaming about her. In his dreams, she was on her hands and knees beneath him, screaming with release as he pounded into her. He breasts bouncing, and her body covered in sweat. The sight so arousing it just made him want to fuck her in real life to see if this was really how she looked.
Sakura blushed as she could feel the effect of his dream pulsing against her stomach. "I…I'm sorry! Kakashi told me to wake everyone up and so…-" She cut herself off with a moan as Sasuke bit lightly at her neck. "Sasuke?"
"God, I want you so fucking bad. You have no idea." He sat up and she gasped at the lust raging in his eyes.
"I know two of my genin are not in a tent together, considering it's against the code and they would both get discharged." Rang a voice from outside the tent.
Kakashi moved on, however, and Sasuke growled before turning back to Sakura and taking her lips in a passionate kiss. "We are going to have to talk later, I can't stand this much longer," He growled, grinding into her.
She arched her back before coming to her senses and pushing him away and running out of the tent. She wasn't ready for that. Not yet. Even if it was with Sasuke, who she had always wanted to give herself to. She blushed as Kakashi glance up at her before walking over to Rior's tent and calling out to him.

A note. Rior couldn't believe he had slept through a note being placed next to him. He had woken to Sakura calling out to him, and, as his eyes opened, he noticed it sitting there, looking innocent as could be. His name was written across the top with a unique style of stroke, he had learned to read this style when he was in the Village Hidden in the Sand.
Quickly, he snatched up the note and read,
Rior,
When team seven comes to a stop tonight, meet me by the waterfall your Sensei is sure to find. Wait until everyone has gone to sleep and the moon is at its highest point in the sky.
Garra
Rior's breaths came up short as a smile graced his lips. Finally, he would be able to see his lover again. This time, there wouldn't be anyone to interrupt them like last time, hopefully. All he could think about that morning, as he packed up his stuff, was how excited he was to be seeing the sociopathic sand nin who suddenly didn't seem so sociopathic.

A/N: Well, what do you think? Sorry it took so long. For the record, I finished this chapter on the 21, but I don't have Internet so I had to wait to get something to save it on and a computer that does have Internet to be able to do it.
Sorry, there's no short short this time. I couldn't get in touch with my editor to ask if it was ok.
Ja ne for now!
