Two hours later the intruder that broke into '' Konoha'' stood in front of research facility. He sighed and looked around before limping to the entrance. He opened the door and walked inside just to be greeted by a white-haired man with glasses '' What are you doing here? Your mission isn't over yet. '' The man with glasses asked.
'' I need you to patch me up. My leg is broken. '' The intruder replied taking off his mask and revealing a perfect pale face and duck buts style hair.
'' Sasuke, what happened? '' White-haired man asked while throwing the ravens arm around his shoulders and slipping his own arm around Sasukes waist, supporting him to the elevator.
The stoic boys eye twitched '' What do you think happened, Kabuto? I got caught breaking in. Had a fight with an agent of ''Konoha''. My leg was broken. '' He replied as if it was the most obvious thing.
Kabuto rolled his eyes and boarded the elevator with Sasuke. He pushed some buttons, entering a secret code. The door closed and elevator started moving slowly. Kabuto looked at Sasuke smirking '' So you failed the mission.'' The man with glasses stated '' Did they see your face? Has your cover been blown?''
'' Don't worry. None of that happened. I just need my leg healed fast. You don't want me to rise suspicion by not coming to school after the break into '' Konoha '', do you now?'' The raven haired boy asked in a mocking voice.
'' I am helping you now, am I not? '' Kabuto said while fixing his glasses, pushing them back in place '' However, that still doesn't change the fact that you failed the mission '' he stated and smirked after seeing the others eye twitch.
The door of the elevator opened after it stopped at 25th floor letting Sasuke and Kabuto out. They both stepped out of the lift and found themselves in a large white lab filled with strange medical equipment and experiments. Kabuto slipped an arm around the raven's waist again helping him walk.
Sasuke sighed and letting himself be supported deeper into the room where a tall man with long dark hair wearing a long white doctor's lab coat was standing next to a large table performing an autopsy on a human body.
''Lord Orochimaru, excuse me, but Sasuke is back and needs medical treatment'' the white-haired man said.
The tall man stopped what he was doing and turned around. His white coat and pale face was stained with drops of dark red blood. He carefully traced his eyes over Sasukes body examining it and asked '' What happened? Your leg is broken isn't it?''
The boy with duck butts hairstyle rolled his eyes while the white haired man smirked and spoke up ''He failed a mission and got beat up. '' Kabuto stated.
Orochimarus dark snake eyes widened in shock for a second, but then narrowed and his lips formed a smirk '' Sasuke-kun, you never failed a mission before. What's so special about this time? ''
'' Do you think it's easy to break into ''Konoha''? If you think it is, why don't you try it yourself? Rather than sending me.'' The raven hissed. He was getting even more annoyed.
'' Show some respect to lord Orochimaru! '' Kabuto said threateningly.
The creepy doctor guy that looked like a snake chuckled '' Why would I do anything when I have you '' he said with a mocking voice.
''Tch. Just shut the fuck up and fix my leg.'' Sasuke said taking a deep breath calming himself down.
'' So mean Sasuke-kun! '' Orochimaru said faking the hurt in his voice and making Sasuke roll his eyes in the immature behavior of a man in his 50ies. The old man smirked wider seeing the younger raven's annoyed and tired expression '' God, you are no fun Sasuke-kun. Go and lay down on that table.'' The man said pointing his finger at large white table further to his right.
Sasuke looked at the place where the man was pointing and with the help of Kabuto made his way there. He laid down on the cold surface of the white table. In the corner of his dark eyes he saw Orochimaru taking off his bloodied white coat and exchanging it for a clean one after washing up a little. He put a white doctor gloves on and made his way to Sasuke while pushing some kind of medical device with him '' Kabuto, tie him up. We don't want Sasuke-kun to move during the procedure.'' he said smirking.
The white-haired man did as his boss ordered and cuffed the younger ones legs, arms, waist and head to a table while Orochimaru lowered the medical device so that it touched Sasukes broken leg. The device consisted of three giant needles coming out of glass container which was connected to them. The container was filled with strange glowing green liquid.
'' Before we start this you should know one thing, Sasuke-kun. This is going to hurt A LOT.'' Orochimaru said with a sadistic smirk and turned the device on.
The three needles were lowered down in such speed and strength that it penetrated Sasukes skin and bone without any difficulty making the boy bite his lip in pain so he wouldn't scream. When the all three needles were securely inside Sasukes bone, Orochimaru pushed another button which started to flow green glowing liquid inside the boys leg.
Sasukes eyes shot open even wider if it's possible. It took a lot out of Sasuke not to let himself scream. The boy could feel the green liquid starting the process of healing his broken bone. Connecting two broken pieces back together or rather growing them back together.
Orochimaru and Kabuto looked at the ravens pained face with smirks on their own '' this part never seizes to amaze me. I love to see their pain filled face and hear their screams. But, I have to admit Sasuke is doing a good job from screaming in agony.'' Kabuto said with a chuckle.
'' There are many things about Sasuke-kun that are intriguing'' The Serpent said '' He works for me only to have access to my contacts around the world. He has a goal you see. He wants to kill a certain someone and we are just along for the ride. However, there is a lot of crucial information about that certain someone that our dear Sasuke doesn't know.'' Orochimaru turned his head to the white-haired man '' Kabuto, I'm dying to know how Sasukes story will end. By the way when I said crucial, I meant that the piece of information will change Sasukes life and mission completely.'' He said.
Next day, early in the morning.
Narutos eyes slowly opened making him groan in annoyance at the bright light. He sat up in the bed where he was sleeping just moments before , his sleepy eyes taking in the room he was in and guessing that it was one of the recovery rooms in '' Konoha''. He sighed and closed his eyes recalling the events that led to him waking up here when he heard a soft voice'' How are you feeling, Naruto? ''
The young blonde boy opened his eyes and blinked a couple of times before turning to his right where the voice came from. Blue sleepy orbs were met with worried brown eyes and two pairs of blue '' I'm fine… But what are you all doing here? Baa-chan, Ino, Dei… '' he asked while yawning.
'' We were worried of course! '' Ino said with a tint of anger and relief present in her voice. She was sitting on a plastic chair with Tsunade sitting on another chair on her right and Deidara on her left.
'' But I'm fine. I was just knocked out by the smoke bomb. '' 15 year old replied with expressionless face.
'' Look, Brat.'' Tsunade started with a completely serious expression '' We are allowed to worry when you are knocked out after inhaling strange fumes from enemies smoke bomb and even more when you don't wake up for 6 hours.'' She sighed running a hand through her blonde hair '' Speaking about this… You fought the intruder, right Naruto? '' The youngest one in the room nodded '' Tell us what you gathered from the encounter. ''
Narutos eyes narrowed when he thought back to events of last night '' Ummm… The intruder was a man. I'm guessing he is in his early 20ies. He has well-built body and is very skilled in hand to hand combat. He is slightly taller than me. However, he has a big ego and likes to take a lot of risks. I'm also guessing he infiltrated Konoha high school under a cover. He can be a student or a teacher, but my gut tells me he is a student.'' He replied.
'' So in other words just like you '' Deidara stated smirking.
'' What's that supposed to mean?'' Naruto asked glaring at his older brother.
'' I'm talking about that you just descri-'' Deidara started, but was cut off by Tsunades fierce glare directed at him.
The old blond woman coughed '' Oh… that's problematic. Do you know what he wanted to accomplish by breaking in?'' She asked.
''Nah, but I think he wanted to get into our file room, but I don't know what he wanted to steal from there. However, I know this. He will try again. '' the whiskered teen replied.
Tsunade let out a frustrated sigh '' I guess I will have to increase security. Naruto, is there any way to distinguish the intruder from other students?''
'' I broke his left leg even if he works for an agency that has necessary medical equipment to fix it. There is no way it will be healed in such short period of time. The leg will be weaker than usual in these next few days. Also it will hurt. He might be limping slightly so we should look for a person who is limping with an injured left leg. '' the boy in the bed answered.
'' Great, I can work with that. I think Shikamaru should be able to write a program to find someone limping. '' Tsunade said and looked at Naruto tracing her eyes over his figure making sure he is really alright '' Naruto, considering the events of last night I think you can skip school today. ''
Naruto smirked, but then remembered something crucial '' I would love to, but I can't… '' he said beginning to frown.
The oldest woman in the room raised her eyebrow '' Why? '' she asked curious since she knew her grandson would give anything to have a free day and just lay in comfortable warm bed.
''It's because of Uchiha brat, isn't it, Naru-chan?'' Deidara asked with a mischievous smirk.
Tsunade looked at her other older grandson with a puzzled look '' Huh? Am I missing something?''
'' Our dear Naruto-kun here has been intrigued by Sasuke Uchiha. He says that it's because he can't guess what the other is thinking or feeling, but I think our little Naru-chan is growing up.'' Ino said with a knowing all smirk on her face.
Tsunades eyes widened in shock as she understood what Ino was implying '' Do you mean?...'' she asked still wanting to be sure.
'' Huh?'' Naruto asked not following the conversation anymore.
Deidara smirked and shook his head '' Naru-chan, you were always so dense when it comes to these kind of situations.'' He said mockingly.
Ino looked at her younger cousin with a completely serious expression on her face '' Naruto, I saw you in class with the Uchiha yesterday where you were whispering in his ear. I saw your smirk. This might be just a game to you, but you have to understand one thing, Naruto. You are a 15 year old teen age boy that means your hormones are very high and you might not understand it right now since you never really experienced this before, but… at this age your body starts craving for more-'' she explained, but was cut off by her older cousin.
'' To put it bluntly, Naruto, you are attracted to the Uchiha. Sexually. It means you want to him.'' He said.
Naruto just looked at them confused 'Attracted? Could I really be attracted to him?I find him intriguing yes, but anything other than that I don't know…. '
'' Naruto, we understand that this might be confusing for you considering you never even looked at anyone in that way. However, this doesn't change the fact that you are attracted to the Uchiha even if you don't know it yet or just can't accept it. There is this thing between you two I don't know how to explain, but anyone that can see you together can sense it. It's the air around you when you are together. It's dangerous and alluring. Anyone that is perceptive can see the game of cat n mouse that you two are playing or started playing since it's only been one day.'' Ino said sighing and shaking her head with a hand on her forehead.
'' Is Sasuke the same kid that I heard about? He is dating my part-time assistant Sakura, isn't he? Also he is the most popular boy in school for what I gather.'' Tsunade asked.
Deidara nodded '' Yeah. That's him, but don't worry, taking the fact how much he stares at Naru-chan , I think we can clearly state that he is also interested in Naruto.''
'' But he has a girlfriend already...'' the oldest female blonde muttered. She couldn't understand why a perfectly straight boy without any hints swinging both ways and with a girlfriend none the less would look at another guy.
'' That's not a problem. If Naru-chan decides he wants the Uchiha no one could stop him even if they wanted to. Because we all know how he gets when he wants something real badly. He doesn't even care who he hurts along the way'' Deidara said shrugging as if this was a natural. Well it was natural in his world where he had Naruto as a younger brother.
Tsunade sighed '' Yeah… That's an understatement… I can still remember the last time Naruto wanted something. And then after he got what he wanted I was left the one cleaning out the mess… ''
The whiskered teens eye twitched '' Mess? There was no mess. But I seem to recall you freaking out over nothing so that doesn't count. If they can't track me or associate me with you guys or with this organization it's not a mess that needs cleaning.'' He stated.
'' Yeah…'' Ino said in a sarcastic tone '' I think we will need to help him and hope for minimum damage.''
'' I wouldn't put too much hope in that. You know like someone said sometime awhile back Go Big Or Go Home '' The oldest male said smirking.
'' Yeah… we all know how you feel about making a flash or would it be a BOOM ? '' Ino asked rolling her eyes.
'' It's definitely a Boom '' Deidara replied teasingly.
Tsunade cleared her throat loudly bringing everyones attention to her '' Anyways… I would like my school to stay in piece and not pieces. So, Ino, do you have any ideas how to minimum Narutos destruction power?'' she asked.
Naruto heard his cousin start explaining her plan making him sigh ' I don't even know how I feel about Sasuke myself and they are already making plans for me. If Shikamaru was here he would say So Troublesome… and I would have to agree…' he thought as he closed his eyes drifting back to sleep for a while.
The classes were already started as Naruto walked through the empty halls of Konoha high school just once in a while seeing other students pass him by. He was already 15 minutes late to his first class that was math. Naruto quickened his pace and in about less than a minute was standing in front of the door leading to his first class. Without any care in the world he entered the room where he was expecting to be greeted by a pissed of teacher yelling at him for being late, but to his surprise the teacher was nowhere in sight.
Naruto stopped in his pace and stood in front of the class , his eyes ran through all the people in room looking for something, but he didn't know what. He smirked when his eyes landed on pink haired girl sitting next to Sasuke. Sakura was clinging to the ravens arm like it was her life line making the blond roll his eyes. Naruto looked to his right where a clock was hanging on the wall ' Three... Two... One... ' he counted backwards in his mind as seconds passed. School speakers beeped bringing everyone's attention to it.
'' Sakura Haruno please come to the principal's office now. I repeat Sakura Haruno please come to the principle office now.''
Everyone's eyes in the class fell on the pink haired girl, wondering why the principle was calling her.
Sakura face turned red from embarrassment as she felt people's eyes on her, watching her every move. She hesitantly stood up leaving her seat next to Sasuke empty with only few things that could identify her as raven's seat partner and that was her math book on her side on the table, her notebook and her bag next to a table.
The pink haired girl walked towards the front of the class where the door was located. She narrowed her eyes and glared at Naruto while passing him by and leaving the class room.
The young blonde boy waited for the pink haired girl to be out of sight completely before starting to walk towards Sasukes table. He shifted his back pack so that it was only hanging from his left shoulder.
Naruto moved casually until he reached ravens table. He lowered his back pack a little so that it would be in the same height as the table and ''accidently ''walking by Sasukes table swift Sakuras books away. The pink haired girls books fell to the ground with a loud thud making everyone look to the direction where the sound came from.
All of the class stared at the blonde boy who had an innocent, cute, confused expression on his face. He looked around and with a fake innocent voice asked '' Ummm... what was that sound just now? ''
An awkward silence erupted in the room with all the blondes classmates eyes on him. Keeping his innocent act up he gulped and turned his head to Sasuke'' Ummm... this seat isn't taken, r-r-right?'' He asked while fakely stuttering.
'' I guess not.'' Raven replied with an amused look on his face.
Naruto smiled sweetly, but Sasuke could see that it was fake. The blonde sat down next to the older boy and with the back of his heel kicked Sakuras bag which started rolling until it reached another table.
'' You know no one really bought your innocent act'' The older stated gaining Narutos attention.
'' I never planned them to believe in it either way.'' Naruto replied grining widely.
'' So then tell me what did you get from all this mess you created?'' The raven haired boy asked with an elegant, dark, raised eyebrow.
'' What do I get from all this, huh?'' The whiskered teen said with an index finger on his chin making him look like he was thinking hard about something '' I wonder about that myself '' he said a devilish smirk appearing on his face.
''Hn'' Sasuke replied with a smirk of his own.
'' So tell me, Sasuke, what kind of boyfriend lets someone kick his girlfriend out of her seat? Normal boyfriend would kick the others ass for doing something like this to the one he loves. '' Naruto asked mockingly.
'' I guess I'm not a regular boyfriend then. '' The older replied.
'' Or you just like me way more than you like your own girlfriend. '' The blonde said with an arrogant grin.
'' Tch. Dobe.'' He said trying to hide his amusement.
'' Teme. '' Naruto replied a gazing into those onyx orbs that can captivate him for no particular reason with only one thought in his mind ' Could I really be attracted to him?' but his train of thought was cut short when the door opened and their math teacher came in.
'' Sorry guys, that I'm late. I was helping an old lady cross the street. '' a man with silver hair, a mask on his face and one visible eye said.
'' Liar.'' Naruto stated loudly making everyone in the room look at him once again '' I guess you haven't changed, Kakashi-sensei.''
'' Naru-chan…'' Kakashi said recognizing those blonde locks everywhere '' You're back? '' he saw some books on the ground and smirked ,but no one saw that because he was wearing his mask '' I can see you're causing trouble already. That's my best student.''
'' Me? Trouble? No way. Those books fell by themselves ''Naruto replied proudly.
'' Sure they did '' Sasuke whispered so only the blonde boy sitting next to him could hear.
Kakashi chuckled '' Okay. Naru-chan we will catch up after class so now everyone please open chapter 6 and sta-'' He started saying but stopped when the door opened and Sakura walked in '' Miss Haruno please hurry and find a seat because the class has already started.''
Sakura looked at her seat where Naruto was sitting now and frowned '' But sensei that kid is sitting in my seat!'' she said furiously.
'' Miss Haruno , I heard from the principal that you are forbidden to sit next to Sasuke Uchiha in class so please find another seat without arguing.'' The silver haired man ordered in a strict voice.
Sakura shivered from his tone and without any single word more she went to pick up her things from the ground where they were laying. She bent down and collected them before moving to sit in an empty seat next to one of her classmates.
The class proceeded nicely without any more incidents. Kakashi was explaining chapter six while Sasuke was taking notes, Naruto was sleeping and Sakura was glaring at the blonde boy, cursing him in her head.
The bell rang and Naruto lifted his head and started to pack up. He felt Sasuke stand up and walk away so he turned his head and watched the raven leave the class, but before he left Naruto clearly saw that Sasuke limped on few occasions.
'Interesting… '
