Thank you for my first review from AsThickAsFire I am over the moon.
Previously: "What part of street racing is normal?" They both chuckled. Sasuke sighed and gave the blond another kiss. "Okay" Naruto grinned. Sasuke looked out the window and quickly pushed Naruto's head down before pulling out his Barretta and shooting the other man in the car on the road. "Naruto, shoot!" he passed over the gun and the blond did as he was told as Sasuke floored it. So here's what happens next...
Chapter 2
Sasuke tooted the horn at the storage container. The doors opened and he drove in the car before getting out and going round to help the blond out. "We're we followed?"
"Not likely" Sasuke pulled the blond with him after they shut the doors and brusquely walked over to the warehouse. His phone vibrated "Shino?"
"Sasuke, come on up." Sasuke put his hand on the door and it opened. He guided the blond inside before looking behind him and shutting the door.
"Woof!" Naruto was barrelled over by a very big white dog.
"Akamaru" The blond giggled as the dog licked him silly. "Come on, boy calm down" he pushed the dog gently up and Akamaru backed off. A brunet offered his hand to the blond.
"Sorry 'bout that, Naruto, you know how he gets when he hasn't seen you in ages" the brunet grinned petting the dog's head.
"Yeah, I'm happy to see you guys too, Kiba" the blond gave him a 'bro-hug'.
"Where's Shino?"
"Upstairs"
"Can you get him some clothes?" Sasuke asked the brunet and the blond felt his cheeks heat up at his friend's raised eyebrow. The raven left the two in the living room and made his way up the stairs. He came to a closed door and opened it closing the door behind him.
"No clothes, huh?" the man asked without turning around.
"We were in a hurry" Sasuke explained simply. "How's it look?"
"I did what you asked but, the guy's in deep, he's got his hands in all sorts of honey jars." The dark brunet answered.
"Does it cross our territory?" Sasuke answered as he leaned against the desk.
"Five drivers" he rotated his computer screen so it was portrait and tapped his finger on the LCD and brought up a file.
"I owe you, Shino"
"Hand over the keys to your summer house for a month and it's a done deal" there was a knock at the door and Shino minimised the file before Kiba walked in.
"I got you some beers" he placed the tray down and Sasuke hadn't failed to notice the glare from the brunet's almond eyes. The door closed and Shino turned to Sasuke.
"That was cold. Did you fuck his best friend or something?" Shino tipped back a beer…
"Yeah"
…it came back out and Sasuke barely had enough time to move. "Gyah, gross dude!"
"I'm sorry but, what? I did not just hear you say you had sex with…" Sasuke turned his head towards the door. "Dude, that canes, how do you feel?"
"Like a moron" He sunk onto the floor.
"He didn't reject you did he?"
"No"
"So what's the problem?"
"I'm worried, that I'm probably just another one night for him."
"Have you spoken to him about it yet?"
"We we're talking before more goons showed up" he sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and index finger. "Everything's so messed up." Shino placed his hand on Sasuke's shoulder. The raven let out a deep sigh before standing and pulling over a chair. "Show me the file?" Shino nodded and opened the file again. Sasuke scanned the information, taking down mental notes. "So how do we do this?"
"Thought you'd never ask" Shino smirked. "These five are his top drivers but he also has small time drivers. We take out the maggots before we reach the flies."
"Okay, dude, no more insect aphorisms" Sasuke looked paler.
"Suck me" Shino growled.
"As tempting an offer that is, no thanks" Sasuke looked back at the screen. "Sasori Akasuna, Gaara's cousin huh?" he mused aloud.
"Before we race, we need to build a team. You, me and Kiba isn't enough."
"You think Gaara will help?"
"Matsuri is in her third trimester" just then Shino's phone rang and he answered without looking at the caller ID, "Shino, here"
"Oh god, Shino, thank god" a male sighed.
"Kankuro?" he questioned.
"Matsuri's missing!" Shino nearly dropped the phone.
"Are you sure?"
"My big sister is currently trying to stop our little brother from crushing a nurse's windpipe so yeah, I'm sure" Shino looked worriedly at Sasuke.
"Sit tight, we'll be right there" Shino grabbed his coat and the two made their way out the warehouse and to the brunet's car. A minute later Sasuke's phone rang.
"Hello?" it was unknown.
"S-Sasuke-kun…" a girl's voice trembled.
"Hinata?" he blinked then his eyes narrowed.
"Neji Nii-san!" the girl screamed and Sasuke heard a man cry out in pain.
"Hinata, what's going on?" Sasuke asked concernedly.
"Hello, my dear, Sasuke" a male's voice hissed venomously sweet. Sasuke's eyes went wide and felt a shudder of repulsion run through his entire body.
"Orochimaru" he whispered. Shino snapped his head to Sasuke's direction.
"Ah! You remember me! I'm so delighted" a man cried out again and Sasuke winced.
"Where is my family?" Sasuke growled he didn't have time for the snake's games.
"Oh, they're fine sitting here. Hina-chan is especially voluptuous. Wouldn't you agree?"
"You hurt-"
"Oh Sasuke, I don't think you're in any position to be casting any threats."
"What do you want?"
"Oh ho, ho, Sasuke, it really is simple... Race for me"
"No way" he denied instantly. He grimaced when he heard his cousin cry out their cousin's name again as he screamed in pain
"Think it over, Sasuke-kun" he hissed.
"Orochimaru, you-!" the man hung up before Sasuke could finish his threat. He threw his phone on to the dashboard, startling Shino "Fuck!"
"What's wrong?"
"He's got Hinata and Neji." Sasuke looked out the window, his hand framing the bottom of his face. "We have to ride tonight, team or not"
"You're seriously going to do as he says?"
"I've got no choice now, Shino" the raven closed his eyes. Shino sighed and increased his speed. Within five minutes they had made it to the hospital. A redhead was being held tightly to an ash blonde's chest and a pale skinned – his hair was hidden by a baseball cap - man were standing by a lime green Jag. Shino pulled in behind the jag and got out, Sasuke following after. "Gaara?" he placed a comforting hand on the redhead's shoulder.
"Uchiha" the redhead turned and wiped his eyes.
"Thanks, Shino" the capped man wrapped an arm around Shino in half a hug.
"Anytime, Kankuro. Tell me what happened?" Kankuro sighed before sitting down on the hood of his friend's car.
"Well…"
"Ride with me?" Sasuke asked.
"Will I get Matsuri back?"
"I'm not sure" Gaara bit his thumb. Anything's worth it right now.
"What time?"
"Nine tonight" Sasuke smirked.
"I'll be there" Gaara nodded.
"So who's next?" Shino asked as he turned a corner.
"Suigetsu, then Sakura and Ino"
"Why him?" Shino's hand tightened on the steering wheel.
"He's one of the best racers I know"
"Have you forgotten what he did to Kiba?"
"No! But we need him."
"Why can't we have Sai?"
"I don't trust him around Naruto"
"I don't trust Suigetsu 'round Kiba" the two were at a deadlock.
"Then let me drive?" a voice suggested. They both looked at Shino's phone*. A woman with pale indigo hair smiled.
"Konan?" Sasuke asked curiously.
"Yeah, let me drive" she suggested again.
"What about Pain?" Shino asked suspiciously.
"I'm an independent woman and can out drive anybody you pick" the two men looked at each other before looking at the woman again.
"We'll have a race with the three of them" Sasuke suggested and Shino nodded in agreement.
"Winner's the team member" he finishes.
"Time?" Konan asked.
"Seven tonight" Sasuke answered.
"See ya then" she blew a kiss before hanging up.
"Sai's first, then shark bite's, then the girls" Shino proposed and Sasuke nodded in agreement.
*Shino's some sort of tech genius and has somehow figured out a way to make it as though his phone will automatically answer calls from friends after 30secs of ringing.
Sorry this chapter was kinda short but it gets better so stay with me.
So do you get to find out about Kiba and Suigetsu? Possibly.
Why did I decide to include some Akatsuki? Secret.
Elena: Are you going to tell them anything usefull?
Me: It's part of the suspense.
Elena: *Pulls over short brown haired boy* Adam, tell her to finish your stories!
Adam: Why am I here? *deadpans*
Katy: Elena, calm down. It's not like you hate her stuff.
Me: *Sniffs, with shiny eyes* Thank you, Katy.
Adam: Whatever. Please review. I'm out of here. *Leaves the room, slamming the door*
