Chapter 2
Other life
"I've been waiting." The dark and dangerous voice said as I entered the room. Izuna turned around to look at me, through his mask of course. Kabuto stood next to him hunching over.
"Awe, the beautiful Rasuka greets us with her presence." Kabuto said softly. I glared at him sharply.
"Izuna, what is it love?" I asked sweetly. He waved his hand for me to come closer. I obeyed walking softly on the ground over to him. He touched my chin softly.
"I just wanted to see that you are still alive. A war is about to erupt, and I want you to stay alive." Izuna was kind to me, but he was still slightly crazy. I nodded.
"Well I'm alive." I told him backing away. I did love Izuna for a lot of reasons, mainly because he had saved me when we were young, but he could be too much even for me. Besides I was in a sour mood after Gaara.
"Don't act so sour to me, girl." He hissed grabbing my shoulders. I stared at him going limp. He was doing something to make me limp, but I didn't know what. "Kabuto show Rasuka back to her room." Izuna hissed letting me go, and turned away. Kabuto came toward me and took my hand softly.
"Let's go." He whispered leading me away. I was taking soft breaths thinking about my life. Izuna was my life, but what about Sakura and Kiba and Gaara. He was already pretty made at me and now I made things worse. I should probably go see him again, but not now. I needed to do other things here.
"Hey, Rasuka." Zetsu said walking toward me in the hall. Well his white face said.
"So you finally returned." His black face said sourly. I shrugged.
"I come back once a week ya know." I told them with a smile, a fake smile.
"Hurry up." Kabuto growled pulling my arm almost out of its socket. I hurried after him, passing Zetsu up. "You should leave master Izuna alone for a while." Kabuto told me when we got to my room. I was way ahead of him. Izuna needed some time alone, and so did I.
Stacks of paper work cluttered my desk. I growled taking care of the top papers and moving down. I was in an ever worse mood than usual after Rasuka just left me like she did. I could see the worry in her eyes when she left and almost panicked myself.
"Gaara you need to take a break." Temari said walking into the room with Kankuro. I looked up at them and growled. I did not want to be with them at this moment. "Awe what's wrong? Don't tell me Rasuka problems?" Temari put her hand on her hip and stared at me.
"Ha, I can't even believe Rasuka is with you. You're so different." Kankuro added his two scents as usual. He was wrong actually. Rasuka was more like me than he knew. Rasuka had an inner pain that nobody not even Sakura knew about. Rasuka was open with me, and told me everything or at least I hoped she did.
"Go away." I growled annoyed already by them. Temari slapped her hands down on my desk.
"You're going out with us, and you'll enjoy it." Temari commanded. I knew I wasn't going to win this war with her. She was the older sister, and there was no going back from that.
"Where are we going?" I asked gruffly. Temari smiled lighting up by my acceptance.
"We are throwing a ball here actually. I forgot to tell you…" Temari trailed off seeing my raging eyes.
"A ball here?" I asked in almost a scream. She shrugged.
"It was supposed to be a surprise. So you need to get ready." Temari took Kankuro's hand and floored it out of here. Great now I was having a party down stairs, and I doubted Rasuka was even going to come.
