A/N: Here's the 2nd chapter, I hope you like.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
"Lord Orochimaru, the last known spotting of the enemy was about ten miles away." Kabuto said, kneeling down to his lord. "I see. They're getting closer. Well, just keep an eye on Emiko-San. I won't be very happy if something were to happen to her." Orochimaru hissed. "Understood." Kabuto said, adjusting his glasses. With another bow Kabuto disappeared in a poof of smoke.
Karin walked over to Emiko, a smirk adorning her face. "Hey Emiko." She greeted. "Yo." Emiko responded. "You know you have it so easy, I mean Orochimaru-sama likes you and Sasuke more than anyone else. I think he actually likes you more than Sasuke-kun." She said.
"Yeah, I've noticed that myself. But I can't believe the village hidden among the stones actually sent their shinobi for me." Emiko said, crossing her arms, and looking at the ground. "You really should be careful." Suigetsu said joining in the conversation. "If something happens to you, Orochimaru will have our heads." Emiko laughed. "Don't worry. I'm not going to get captured that easily."
Sasuke walked up behind Emiko. "Yes?" Emiko asked, looking over her shoulder at him. "I need to talk to you...Karin, Suigetsu, leave." Sasuke said, getting straight to the point. The two shinobi gave Sasuke a questioning look, but obeyed. "Demanding aren't you?" Suigetsu asked before walking away.
"What do you want?" Emiko asked, glaring at the boy. "About this morning...I'm sorry. I shouldn't have did what I did." Sasuke apologized, looking down at the floor. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "Alright sure." Emiko said. She felt Sasuke's hand squeeze one of her breasts. Jugo, who was staring at them from across the room smirked. "Heh, heh Sasuke's tryin to cop a feel." He chuckled. Everyone in the room looked at the two. Jugo was entertained by it all, Karin was blushing, Suigetsu looked a bit shocked, and Orochimaru looked a bit-well scratch that very pissed. Akane who was still wrapped around Emiko's leg hissed violently at the boy. Sasuke just stared at the snake, unfazed by it's reaction.
Emiko backhanded the boy and turned around to face him. "But next time keep your hands off of me." She whispered so only Sasuke could hear. As if Orochimaru could hear her words, he hissed. "Sasuke-kun you should keep your hands to yourself. That is unless you'd like to loose them." He said. Karin, Jugo, and Suigetsu were shocked that their lord had talked to his precious Sasuke that way, but they didn't dare say a word."Right." Was all Sasuke could say.
Sasuke turned to leave, he was apparently mad. As he walked away his face started to turn a shade of red out of anger. "Wait Sasuke-kun!" Karin called out, rushing after him. Emiko stood there for a moment, staring at the retreating boy. She turned around and walked over to Orochimaru. "Sorry about that." She whispered. "I'll explain that later. Anyways how about my sparing session today?" Orochimaru stood up. "We can start when your ready." He said. "Well I'm ready now. So let's head out front." Emiko said. "Alright then." He hissed, smirking. Then, he and Emiko disappeared in a poof of smoke.
Orochimaru and Emiko both reappeared outside in front of the lair. Two other snakes slithered up Emiko and settled on her body. One was an Asian Crate and the other was an Indigo. Akuma and Haku were their names. "Well Orochi-sama I hope you're ready to get your ass kicked by the person whom you taught." Emiko hissed. "Don't get cocky with me my Emi-san." Orochimaru hissed back.
Emiko's spat up something from her throat. It was the dagger Orochimaru gave her after he had offically made her "his." Without warning Emiko charged at Orochimaru and swung her knife at him. He dodged the attack, but it cut off about an inch of his hair. Emiko spun around and swung at him again, this time cutting his arm. She threw a punch at him, but he dodged it and swept her off of her feet. Orochimaru leapt backwards and layed on the ground. Opening his mouth, about a hundred snakes crawled out. Emiko immediately jumped back. She new she would be covered with snakes in no time if she kept fighting him head on.
Emiko cut her hand with her blade then swallowed it. She made a few hand signs then put her hand on the ground. "Ninja Art: Summoning Jutsu!" She said. The ground cracked underneath her and a snake burst out of it. It was a very huge snake, but not as huge as Manda. The snake scooped her up before the little snakes had a chance to attack her. "It's just training, but nevertheless don't let up." She told the huge snake, Annika.
Annika slithered through the mass of miniature snakes, squashing most of them. She headed for Orochimaru in an attempt to sort of head butt him, but Orochimaru leaped up into the air to dodge it. Emiko leaped off of Annika and towards Orochimaru. She did a spinning kick, striking Orochimaru in the stomach. They both landed on the ground and Orochimaru slouched over a bit in pain. Taking this to her advantage Emiko, ordered the three snakes clinging to her body to attack him. Akuma, Haku, and Akana quickly slithered over to Orochimaru and wrapped themselves around his body, in an attempt to restrain him.
Orochimaru smirked down at the serpents then at Emiko. "I believe you forgot who I am, my dear." He said. The snake ninja opened his mouth and his long tongue shot out. He wrapped it around Emiko's upper body, pinning her arms. Then he lifted her up and threw her into a tree. The sannin loosened his tounge, letting Emiko slide down to the ground. Annika hissed at Orochimaru and slithered over to her mistress. "Are you alright Emiko-Sama?" The snake asked, worriedly. Emiko groaned out in pain, she slowly pushed herself up off of the ground. "Ow...I'm fine, but Orochimaru sure takes things very serious, even when it's just a spar." She said. "Of course I have to be rough on you. You won't ever improve any other way." Orochimaru replied, flipping a strand of hair out of his face.
A few of the snakes that came from Orochimaru's mouth were still alive. They made their way over to Emiko and tried to attack her, but Annika caught them with her mouth before they could reach her and ate them. "I appreciate the help." Emiko said, trying to form a smile to cover up her disgusted look. She limped back over to Orochimaru and looked at him with a smirk. "Are you going to have these serpents release me so I can fight you fairly?" He asked. Emiko laughed. "What are you saying you care nothing about fairness." The sannin laughed. "You're right." He said. "But they are quite annoying and I may just end up ripping them apart."
Emiko sighed. She may have wanted to win the battle, but she didn't want to loose her precious snakes. "Fine then. Let him go." The girl commanded her snakes. The three serpents reluctantly detached themselves from Orochimaru and slithered over to Emiko. "But it doesn't matter, I can fight you without the use of my snakes." She smirked. "Well then, quit talking and come on." Orochimaru said, returning her smirk. Emiko moved to her fighting stance then charged at the ninja. She threw a series of punches and kicks at him most of which were dodged. Emiko squatted down and spun around elbowing Orochimaru in the same spot she had kicked him in earlier.
"You like aiming low I see." The darker haired ninja said, slightly loosing his balance. Emiko laughed. "Well it seems to be your only weakness." She did a back flip leaping into the air and brought out two fuma shiruken, throwing them both at Orochimaru. Orochimaru disappeared and reappeared in front of her. He snaked his tongue around her leg and spun her around and around in a circle. Then he suddenly let her go. Emiko closed her eyes as she went flying in the air and she hit the same tree she had hit before, but this time she crashed through it and the one directly behind. The trees collapsed, barely missing her body as she lay on the ground in pain.
Emiko opened her eyes to see the sadastic sannin standing over her. Orochimaru leaned down. "You loose my dear." He whispered into her ear. Emiko chuckled manically. "I'm not done just yet." She said and disappeared in a poof of smoke. 'What?!' Orochimaru thought. "A clone?" He asked aloud. All of a sudden a shadow hovered above him. He looked up, just as a foot met the back of his head, knocking him down to the ground. Emiko stood over him, staring down at him with a smirk. "Now what were you saying about loosing?" She asked.
Orochimaru struggled to get up, but he finally managed with the help of Emiko. "Interesting...you did better than I expected." He said, smirking. Emiko smiled. "Thanks, but it's only because of so much training." She said. "Now let's head back inside. You might want to let Kabuto check out your wounds." "No, I'd rather not." The snake sannin disagreed, as they both poofed back inside the parlor room. "Alright." Emiko said, rolling her eyes. Orochimaru sat down in his chair. "Now, what were you saying earlier about Sasuke-kun?" He asked, his gold eyes piercing her red ones. "Well..." She started.
Saskue was walking down the hallway when he heard voices coming from the parlor room. He stopped right before he reached the entrance to the room. "This morning when I was heading to your room...Sasuke saw me and he was acting strange. He tried to get a bit..touchy but I stopped him before he could get to far and I'm not so sure if he'll try it again." He heard a voice say, it obviously belonged to Emiko. There was a long silence from the other person in the room. "Well it seems little Sasuke-kun has taken a liking to you." He heard Orochimaru's unmistakable voice.
Emiko gasped. "You're okay with that?!" She nearly yelled. "No, not in the least, but he apparently doesn't know about us." Orochimaru hissed. "You're right he doesn't, neither does anyone else." Emiko responded. " They will know eventually." Orochimaru said. "And Sasuke-kun will know sooner than the rest if he doesn't learn his place." Emiko smiled at Orochimaru. "That would be perfectly fine with me. The Uchiha gets on my nerves anyways." She said. " If you'll excuse me Orochi-Sama, I'm heading back to my quaters now." "That's fine." The older shinobi said.
Sasuke disappeared in a poof of smoke just before Emiko exited the room. When Emiko got into the hallway she felt a strange presence, like someone was just there. She looked around curiously, but saw no one. 'It must just be me.' She thought to herself. Emiko started walking down the hallway deep in thought and almost ran into someone. She looked up just in time to see Karin standing there.
"So how'd you're sparing session go?" Karin questioned. "Oh, it went pretty well. I actually won the match." Emiko said, smiling. "Really? I wouldn't have known that because you have a pretty good amount of bruises." The girl said impressed. "Yeah, speaking of wounds I really need to clean mine up. Would you mind coming with me to a river or something?" Emiko asked. "Sure, I don't mind. Besides I'd get some time away from these losers." Karin responded, referring to Jugo and Suigetsu. Emiko and Karin both laughed and headed to Emiko's room to get bathing supplies. Orochimaru sat in the darkness of the parlor room, smirking to himself. "Interesting..." He hissed, laughing maniacally.
A/N: So what do you think Orochimaru's planning? You can guess, but I'm not telling. Next chapter is coming soon. Hopefully.
