Trapped: Chapter One
Naruto's small body lay, still and quiet. His eyes closed and a cut on his forehead slowly leaking blood. The blood ran down the side of his face as he watched carefully, never faulting and never ending. From the shadows a tall figure watched him, here only to make sure he didn't escape or die. Naruto's arms were tried together behind his back, while lay rather awkwardly on it's side.
"Is he awake?" Itachi asked, entering the room and looking down at the small kid.
"No," Kisame answered, looking towards the Uchiha as he entered the room.
Itachi closed the door behind him; he sat down against the wall and watched over the smaller boy as he lay on the floor less than a meter away. Kisame looked down at his partner and sighed; they had been in this small hut for nearly two days already.
"What happens if he dies?" Kisame asked.
"The fox dies with him," Itachi answered.
"Then why don't you kill me, now?" Naruto questioned, hearing the conversation and weakly opening his eyes.
"No, we need you little boy," Itachi answered.
Naruto closed his eyes again and pulled his legs closer to his chest, waiting for the two Akatsuki members to be ready to move again. Itachi stood from his spot he had just picked; he walked to Naruto's side and knelt down beside the small boy.
"Time to go?" Kisame questioned, pulling his sword up on to his back and waiting for Itachi to answer.
"Yes. I have got the kid," Itachi answered, flinging Naruto up on to his shoulder and turning to his partner.
Itachi and Kisame ran almost side-by-side as they sped through the forest; Itachi watched the surrounding forests as they ran quickly. Reaching the base, Kisame and Itachi slowly entered. Itachi dropped Naruto on the couch and looked down at him. Naruto's groggy eyes looked up at him, but he didn't do anything.
"Welcome to the Akatsuki, kid," Kisame said, Naruto's eyes moved to Kisame and then back to Itachi.
"You remind me of Sasuke," Naruto whispered, struggling to keep his eyes from falling closed.
"No, surprise. They are brothers," Kisame told Naruto, Naruto's eyes didn't waver from Itachi as Kisame spoke.
"Kisame, go find leader," Itachi ordered coldly.
Kisame left the room, Itachi remained standing near Naruto as Naruto stayed seated on the couch. As Naruto slow sat up against his own bodies will, Itachi 's eyes remained directly on Naruto.
"Itachi, well done," Pein the leader of the Akatsuki told Itachi, as Kisame and the leader entered the room and watched Naruto.
Naruto's eyes stayed on Itachi's, as he pulled his legs up on to the couch and collectively watched the three Akatsuki members in front of him. Itachi managed to keep his eyes from watching Naruto while Pein and Kisame were in the same room.
"Itachi, take him down to the cells. I will have everyone come home and then we shall preform the jutsu,"
"No," Naruto whispered; Kisame, Pein and Naruto turned their full attentions towards Naruto in slight surprise.
"Excuse me?" Pein questioned.
"You can't do this to me," Naruto said, sitting up straighter in his seat and glaring at the Akatsuki members.
"Shut up, brat," Kisame ordered.
"Why bother, just want to kill me," Naruto replied.
"Naruto, shut up," Itachi ordered, Naruto glared at the older Uchiha.
Naruto tried to stand from the couch, but found his leg give way from under him as he tried to straighten up. Naruto fell to the floor, while the three Akatsuki did absolutely nothing to stop him.
"Bastards," Naruto whispered.
"Interesting," Pein said, Itachi and Kisame looked at their leader and then back at Naruto.
"Leader?" Kisame asked, as he could see his leader clearly thinking.
"Leave him, he can't escape anyway," Leader replied, before he turned on his heels and walked back down the dark hallway he came from.
"Just leave him, here?" Kisame questioned.
"Yes," Itachi answered, pulling his cloak from his body and flinging it over the back of the couch and heading towards the kitchen.
Kisame threw his cloak messily on top of Itachi's and hurried after his partner; stopping at the edge of the kitchen. Itachi watched as Itachi quickly make too salad and chicken filled sandwiches and began to eat one. Itachi pushed the second sandwich on a plate across the bench towards Kisame. Kisame smirked and picked the sandwich from the plate. Seconds later a very distinct voice was heard from down the hallway, Itachi and Kisame stood across the kitchen bench from each other and waited for Tobi to come bouncing into the room.
"Itachi, your home," Tobi screamed, as he entered the room not noticing Naruto seated on the ground next to the couch.
"Fine," Itachi answered, walking from the kitchen and going to sit on the couch.
Tobi noticed Naruto seated on the floor, with his head low and his hair falling over his face.
"Ohhhh, who is the pet?" Tobi screamed, running to Naruto and beginning to poke Naruto's shoulder.
"Leave me alone," Naruto ordered, pulling away from Tobi and hitting Itachi's leg.
"Tobi, be nice," Itachi ordered, watching the spectral between Naruto and Tobi.
"Why isn't he happy? Kisame said he was always happy?" Tobi questioned.
Naruto's breath caught in his throat as the memories surfaced and he tried with everything he could to hold back the painful memories.
