A/N: Heyo, so finally the third chapter has come. I started school so the posting and writing of this was delayed but I'm finally done. I gotta say I'm proud of this chapter just because it's the longest one and...yeah I think it's just that. Anyway, enjoy~

-Sasuke's POV-

Annoying. That was the only thing I thought as I interrogated the blonde man. He was trying to get on my nerves, and as much as I tried to control my facial expression, it was working. The only thing I got was sassy remarks from the idiot and, if it wasn't forbidden, I would have made a nice new bullet hole through his skull. Yeah, that sounded absolutely fantastic right now. Anyway, as far as the blonde's crime went, it wasn't anything special. Usually for this type of murder he would have rotted in prison or stayed for at least 20 years but, since in this case it was a self-defense type of murder, the penalty wouldn't be that bad. Uzumaki wasn't too old either, a year younger than me, actually, so that's a plus for him. He will probably stay only 5 years at most, especially since his foster mother saw everything and she can confirm it was self-defense. As I was thinking this over, the idiot started twitching in his chair and looking at me as if he wanted to ask me something.

"What is it?" I sighed as he looked at me, surprised that I was actually stopping the interrogation for a while.

"Well...uh...you see..." He started, looking at me, then at the ground, and back up at me again. I felt my eyebrow twitch in annoyance. If he said anything stupid again I swear I-

"I need to use the toilet." I couldn't help it. My jaw dropped a little. Of all the things I thought he would ask me, this was the last one I expected. I noticed he was twitching again, his handcuffs clacking against the chair.

'I think I've got an idea.' I smirked as I looked at the blonde. Except the crime, there was something else we wanted from him and that was the main reason for the interrogation. Even if he looked stupid, he knew many people. Important people, including the shady criminals. And we needed information on those criminals, mainly the group called Akatsuki. He has been seen in that group and if this guy knew anything about the group's whereabouts, I was going to find it out.

"I've heard that you went along with your biological father to his office and met important people there. But you were also rebellious and got into a lot of fights, meaning you knew a lot of criminals, too. So let's strike a deal. You will tell me everything you know about the group called Akatsuki, and I'll let you use the toilet." I said as I got out of my chair and exited the cell, letting the blond think it over. I knew no sane person would offer valuable information just to use the toilet but people can't really hold it in forever. The idiot was stubborn as a mule, so I'm pretty sure he wouldn't tell me anything soon if I didn't push him a little, and that is exactly what I will do. Suigetsu was still outside and I told him to fetch me a glass and a water bottle. After that I went back inside and saw Uzumaki twitching even more in his chair but his face was set in a stubborn line. I smirked at that. Let's see how long he can hold it in.

"Well, are you going to tell me anything or not? I'm not a patient man, Uzumaki." I said as I watched his expression twist into a cocky grin.

"I didn't think you were, Duck Queen. I ain't telling you anything."

"Care to repeat that, Uzumaki?" I placed the glass in front of him, slamming it on the table with enough force to break it. He seemed kind of nervous now, his grin slightly faltering at the sight of the glass. He twitched again.

"I can stay here all day, but I don't want to waste anymore time." I opened the bottle of water and tilted it so the content started falling into the glass. Another twitch.

"Also, if you really plan to hold it in and accidently wet yourself, just know that you'll be going with those clothes everywhere."

Twitch.

Half of the water was gone already.

Twitch.

"Well, Uzumaki" I came even closer to him, our faces inches apart. Twitch. Gulp. "Will you speak or not?"

The bottle was empty and the blonde gave in.

"Fine, I'll talk." He said through gritted teeth. I smirked and stepped back, sitting in my chair again.

"I don't know all of the Akatsuki members personally. I know only their leader, Pain, and one of the members, Uchiha Itachi. The-" I reached over the table and pulled the blonde's shirt, making him spill the glass over the floor. But I didn't care about that. All I cared about was the information he had on that man.

"Tell me everything you know about Itachi. Now." I said pulling him even closer. His eyes were wide and filled with surprise at my sudden action, before they changed into ones filled with mischief. He grinned at me.

"Heh, you actually have other expressions, eh? And why should I tell you anything? And don't start with the toilet thing. It was for information on Akatsuki, but if you want more information on Itachi only, then that's a different story."

"Don't fuck with me" I growled, gripping his shirt even more, turning my knuckles white from how hard I was gripping it. "You will tell me everything you know about him or I'll make sure you never leave this place again." I said. A short silence followed before he burst out laughing. I was shocked and my grip on his shirt loosened making him fall back into his chair, his handcuffs clacking on it.

"I knew it! You looked a lot like him but I wasn't sure at first. After that reaction to his name I'm positive you're his brother. He talked about you a lot but even if you interrogate me forever, I won't tell you anything. Don't get me wrong, I'm not that bad that I wouldn't want to help you find him but in this case, I can't. Let's make a deal. I will stay in the prison for one year and every month I will tell you some information about Itachi." I frowned at that. Even if I agreed there's no guarantee that the information is up to date or true. And once a month won't really help me find him.

"I know that you think I may lie to you or give you some stupid clues but the thing I'll be giving you is actually from Itachi himself." My eyes widened at that. From Itachi? Did Itachi predict all of this would happen? But how?

"He said this to me: "Once the riddle is complete he will come and seek me." I know you want this information immediately but that wouldn't be good for me. You see, at the end you will get to find your brother, and I will get out of this hellhole. So, Uchiha, do we have a deal?" He said, reaching with his handcuffed hand towards me. I looked at it for a while, contemplating the deal. It was a good deal, really. Both sides won and if the information wasn't true, I could always stuff the idiot back in here. This information was the blonde's only hope of escaping the prison, and my only hope of finding my brother, because I had to admit, my search hadn't been going well. I always felt like I was walking in circles, losing my brother's trace more and more every day. Even my nightmares had come back, and I knew this deal was my only chance to find him. And I had to find him no matter what. I needed answers and I would get them, so with that thought in mind I grabbed the blonde's hand in my own pale one, shaking it.

"Fine but, if your information is wrong, you won't see the sun again." Uzumaki just grinned at me. I let his hand go and decided this interrogation was over for now. I had to talk about this with the higher-ups to get the okay from them and start this thing. As I walked to the door, Uzumaki shouted something at me.

"Hey, hey, I forgot to ask something important. I won't be telling you anything if you don't answer me." I stilled and waited for his question. Would he want to be let out even earlier? Or maybe special privileges?

"Can I get my ramen posters and pillow back, please?" He said. I felt my eye twitch again. Of course he would ask something like that. Retard.

"Now that depends on what information you give me, Uzumaki." I smirked.

"Ugh, fine...uh...I just realized I don't know your name. I mean I know you are an Uchiha but what's your first name?" He asked. I was surprised by that, because he sounded genuinely curious. I can't remember the last time someone asked me for my first name without any motives behind it. I shook my head at that. No need to dwell on it.

"Oi, aren't you going to answer me?" Uzumaki shouted while angrily hitting his handcuffs on the table.

"It's Sasuke. I hope you can remember that much, idiot." I said, smirking at him before opening the door.

"Huh? What was that, you teme!? Forget Duck Queen, I'll just call you Sasuke-teme! Get back here and let me hit you. I'll show you who's an idiot you-" I closed the door before he could finish his sentence. I saw Suigetsu leaning on the wall and looking up at me when I exited. He was about to say something but his eyes widened and he looked like a fish out of water. Heh.

"Suigetsu, close your mouth before more flies get in it, you're brain-dead already, don't make it worse." I said and that seemed to snap him out of his daze.

"Hey, Boss, did something happen? Do you have a fever? Did you eat something weird?" he started asking, before I had enough and punched him on top of his head.

"What is your problem?"

"You're smiling, Boss." I froze at that and touched my face, just now noticing the corners of my mouth were tilted up. I shook my head and forced myself to stop smiling. Why was it so hard? I usually didn't smile at all, and now I couldn't stop. I turned my back to Suigetsu and called the elevator.

"I want you to place Uzumaki in his new cell, and after that come to my office, we need to call the higher-ups over. There is something important we have to discuss." I said before going into the elevator.

-Naruto's POV-

'Well, that went better than I expected.' I thought as I waited for someone to pick me up. I didn't have to wait long because the door opened and Fishy walked inside.

"Yo, blondie, I'll be escorting you to your new cell." He said as he removed the chain from my handcuffs and led me outside of the room. I felt like I had been sitting in there for ages. We walked to the elevator and he pressed the button for the last floor. When the doors opened, we got out and we were in some kind of lobby again. It wasn't really that big, only with a desk, computer, a guard behind the desk and a door on the opposite wall. The guard was sitting in a chair and, by the looks of it, taking a nap. Fishy moved near the guard and whistled right near his ear. The poor guy almost fell out of his chair before catching the edge of the desk. He turned to Fishy, ready to yell at him but then thought better of it. Guess Suigetsu was top fish here. Heh. The man opened the door and we walked inside. Now there was a really long and spacious corridor in front of me, separating in two at the end. All around us there were cells with prisoners in them. All of them were looking at us with resentment. More like looking at Fishy, but yeah. The corridor itself was really dark and, since it was underground, the air was stale. Some of the prisoners had risen out of their beds and started shouting profanities at Fishy but he just ignored them. As he led me through way too many turns, we finally arrived at my cell.

"Well, this is it, your new room. Also you're sharing it with another prisoner so the left bed is yours." He said as he took off my handcuffs and pushed me in the cell. He locked the door and grinned at me before saluting and going away. The only lights in here were some torches on the walls. I snorted at that. Did they seriously use torches in this era? I decided to lie down for now and wait for my roommate. I looked at the opposite bed, but except a few books under a green pillow, there wasn't anything else. I rolled so I was facing the wall and decided to take a nap. Not like I had anything to do anyways. Before I could fall asleep I heard shouts coming from the corridor. I decided to ignore them but I turned around when my cell door was slammed open and a body was thrown inside.

"This is your last warning, you bitch! If you do something like that again, you will suffer the consequences." The officer who had thrown the woman in shouted before locking the cell and angrily storming off, his footsteps echoing in the corridor. I turned to the woman when I heard a cough coming from her. The light was very dim but I saw that, except the books, there was a tray with some bread and a water bottle on the bed. It was probably the breakfast they gave the prisoners and her leftover meal. I got the bottle and crouched near the woman, propping her on the wall and helping her to drink the water. After that she coughed a few more times before finally stopping.

"Thank yo-" She started saying, lifting her face. I finally managed to see her properly in the dim light and both of our eyes widened.

"Naruto?!"

"Sakura?!"
