The Same Eyes

Chapter 9

Adrenaline Rush

Her hands shook with anxiety. Her eyes dilated. Her pulse sped up.

"Ryu[1]." The dog muttered. He held her hand to calm her. To her this was a sign of pity...but it didn't matter anymore. To him it was just a sign of security he offered her.

"We're partners in crime." His warm breathe didn't calm her at all. To her he was just a dog.

Ryu was the nickname the dog had gave his slave, he preferred the name he given her instead of her prison number; B99. She though, didn't care for names.

"Make haste." She whispered to him. He moved past her and towards their prey. His foot steps echoed in her ears as she headed in the opposite direction.

Her plan was going well as of now, she entered Kabuto's private studies. The lab was filled with things she was going to pilfer. Her eyes scanned the area for treasures in the plan. In a locked chest; she broke it open and found some sedatives. On the top shelf a few antidotes. And finally a smoke bomb. She hurried, she felt 2 chakras spiked. It would be fatal for the hunters to become the prey. And besides, no way was she going to let that dog take all the glory.

She rushed through the halls, her speed exceeding all others.

With Sasuke[2]

He had left everything else behind. He only had one goal for the moment. To carry out her plan. It was like killing two birds with one stone. He stopped in front of the room he once recognized as 'sensei'[3]. His body relaxed as the situation began to play in his head.

His body had to tense up, the curse started to form on his body.

He raised one hand and began the battle. A blade of chakra came out to pierce through the door; it extended from his hands and onto his target, Bingo.

He readied his newly received sword, the sword was swung with the adrenaline of excitement he held in his veins. The door was down in a matter of seconds.

"I have nothing more to learn from you." His eyes were void of emotions, they were focused on his single target.

The white snake grimaced as he saw the that person by the doorway. His voice was horsed but bearable. "I knew...It'd come to this." His hands shook under the pressure of his pupil's chakra flow, his crossed arms had to take the pressure.

"I won't show you mercy either, even if you beg for it." His words were only heard by himself, as if it were a promise to himself or for reassurance.

With Ryu

"Please tell me it's not over yet..." Her pulse had reached in the danger zone her legs seemed like they were on fire. The kazekage's room was just too isolated off. The items in her hands weighed her down, but she took no heed.

With Sasuke

He was indeed weak. Sasuke's fingers twitch from the sudden increase in chakra flow from his hand. Orochimaru noticed and immediately moved his vital points away from the threat. The chakra blade had impaled through his wrists, and embedded into the walls behind him.

"Orochimaru, you are weaker than me." The Sharingan spun, the curse mark spread. He looked consumed in the power the boy yearned for. He was indeed satisfied with the years he had spent here, "there's no point in sacrificing my body to you anymore."

"Big words...from the leftover Uchiha." Orochimaru tried to push his buttons.

"Hmph...If I hadn't been so weak, I never would've sought you out, would I?" The leftover held no anger towards the dead man.

All the Uchiha was doing was to stall time as his curse mark spread the power through his veins.

"You only wanted me, because you couldn't handle Itachi," The so called leftover had made a sword wound on the sanin's ego, "Right mister "Great Sanin Genius"?" The one addressed glared, but no words came out, "The world at large would considered you gifted, but you're nowhere near the level of an Uchiha."

Now the boy was truly flaunting his name around as if it was worth millions.

"Before us, the greatest genius in the universe barely comes off as average."

Then came his speech.

"And as someone who carries that name, from my point of view... your attempts to obtain our power are so disgusting they're almost funny." A small, almost invisible smirk appeared on his face, "saturating yourself with drugs and medicines? Transferring bodies? Your methods are pointless. Do you even have a goal anymore?"

"You claim to be seeking the reason behind existence, yet all you do is make petty excuses for playing god with people's lives."

A flashback of Sasuke's reason to survive passed through his mind.

His face finally turned into a scowl of that man's picture. "You sicken me."

Sasuke ran towards the prey, it won't be long. Orochimaru's head hit the wall as he retaliated; opening it's mouth a pale white serpent slithered out.

"So your true body... Is a scaly, white serpent..." He whispered to the remains of the snake's shell. He eased off the chakra blade in his left hand.

There behind him stood the giant white serpent. It's body made of others slithering with snakes. "You wanted to take over other peoples' bodies so badly, you experimented on your own... Now you're a pathetic shell of your former self." His voice was undeniably only analytic.

"Come, Sasuke-kun..." the snake slithered out, "GIVE ME YOUR BODY!!!" the white snake known as Orochimaru slammed towards Sasuke head first, mouth wide. In an instant he jumps away from the mess below, hovering over it. Yet the attack wasn't over, snakes detached from his body and aimed at the Uchiha, but he spun with sword in hand and relinquished those new threats.

He landed on the floor sliding back from the force. The giant snake hissed with venom, Sasuke started to get serious. He began to take off his top as the venom given to him swallowed him whole.

The snakes attached themselves to him and looked like he was being swallowed whole. "Though the snake dreams of soaring through the sky, it is forever doomed to crawl on its belly."

It was final, he would not die here. The snakes spliced out as he made his resolution. Blood splattered to the walls along with random pieces of snakes. His devil wings lashed out. The Giant White Serpent was having a case of anxiety; he couldn't wait until the body became of his own.

His wings finally spread as he proclaimed to the other monster, "You'll have your chance to fly snake...in the talons of the hawk." It had become a daily thing now, for his hands to be bloodied again and again.

At his slight words the snake lunged at him "SASUKE!!!" The room blurred as a great amount of blood shed happened. There standing up straight was the hawk. There on the floor was the chopped up snake, his mouth wide open, the same with his eyes. Blood gushed from each gash, from each slash.

His eyes dimmed along with his curse. "Over already? That was way too easy-" His body suddenly crashed to the floor, forced into a kneeling position. The evil snake chuckled outwardly as his body regenerated, the snakes bonded back together by other snakes.

Another chuckle, "it appears it's taken its effect," he took his time rising back up, "the bodily fluids of this great white snake vaporise upon contact with the air. And form a paralyzing poison." Orochimaru definitely believed in this one thing. "I am everlasting!"

The snake pounced at the undefended boy, swallowing him whole.

Rocks flew off in all directions, as a large hole was made in the wall. Dust of the destruction covered the area. A new threat?

...Possibly.

"Finished without me I see." Her voice was raspy and out of air. She looked exhausted, her hair dampened from sweat swept over her to the side of her face, though it still hid that one right eye. "Doggy?" There stood a perfectly still Sasuke. His eyes void of everything. "Dog...?" Her pupils finally went back to normal as the oxygen returned back to her.

There around the room was the fallen snake. Blood everywhere, it was a scene she wanted to be part of. The ecstasy of it all might just have been worth it. "I can't just leave you here...huh?" She whispered to the empty Sasuke.

She stood up next to him and stared at his figure. There as if out of nowhere came several small blades; "I know you're still alive..." She whispered to a corpse of the giant snake. The blades were pushed until it could go in no more.

"Hey maybe this'll be more fun than expected..." She turned back to Sasuke. "I wish I could say this'll hurt me more than you, but then I'd be lying." A devilish smile crept up on her.

For the next 15 minutes he was continuously annoyed by all ways possible. Slapping him senseless, hitting him over and over again, making him bleed several times; making a total of 9 bruises, and 11 cuts. If she didn't know better, it looked like she was the bad guy.

The air reeked of the white snake's blood. His eyes went back to normal. It was worth it. He would awake soon... 'I need to leave before then.'

"Hey Sasuke, I hope we cross paths again." Her back was turned away from his still body as she left for her own purposes.

"See ya later, Dog." She stepped on the large blood stains everywhere as she left him alone there. Her slow pace changed into a jog, it quickly upscaled, she did not look back as she ran towards the surface, sword slightly bouncing from side to side, as she finally went to fulfill her promises.
