NOTICE: Okay, all of the funny notes on my paper were transferred onto this so… yeah =)
~Hey guys, this is Lacey, you know, the wicked awesome super cool one. I'm Maggie-chan's new BETA, and if I have any comments to make, they'll be between squiggles like ~this~ Kay? Kay.~
CAITLIN'S POV
Dear Lord, where was he taking me? I felt my bone give way even more when he gave my arm an unnecessary tug. I didn't wince this time, I was tired of seeing that sadistic Uchiha smirk. ~Lacey 3's it!~ We had already gone down several of the usual dark dungeon-like hallways and were now coming up to the last door.
"Wait… Orochimaru doesn't live in his actual house?"
"No, that'd be too easy for the enemy to find him," Sasuke-dark-brooding-boy-wonder said. (Inspiration goes to Dizzikatz) Now we were headed towards the forest, oh joy. And now there was ~AN ENORMOUSLY HUGE DEADLY MONSTEROUSLY LARGE PIE!!!~ (Yes viewers, an enormously huge deadly monstrously large pie was hovering over the forest. ANYWAYZ…) a BAT that kept flitting around us. Come on guys, I could REALLY use a rescue right now!
MAGGIE'S POV
"You sure she can do it?" I whispered. "Definitely," Lacey muttered quietly. We had seen Sasuke-bastard dragging Caitlin towards the forest. Victoria had been outside her window for a little while now after we slept for a few hours and they had just now moved. If Caitlin was in pain she hid it well, her face was totally black. Just before they went through the trees Sasuke turned around and stared straight at Victoria.
"Um… bat?" Victoria squeaked. I buried my face in my hands. We were so screwed. Sasuke smirked, eyes totally cold, and pulled out his sword.
"Shit! We need to get in there!" I hissed and began to freeze some of the water around me. Sarah jumped out of the tree she was in and threw three kunai, aiming for Sasuke's hand. He moved back dragging Caitlin with him. My teeth kept grinding together as I ran out from behind the bush.
"Sasuke-bastard, you swore to take care of her…" very few had ever made me mad. As in definition number one, angry. Sasuke had somehow pulled both effing definitions out of Webster and applied them to me. Yeah, now he was screwed.
LACEY'S POV
I couldn't move. Something had happened to me… Everyone was talking all at once, but no mouths were moving.
'He will die!!!' Said a voice, it came from Maggie's direction and sounded like her but her lips were clamped shut.
'Please let Caitlin be okay, her arm..' this time it was Erin's voice, but again, her lips weren't moving.
"What has happened?" I whispered to myself clutching my head.
"Lacey, are you alright?" I heard from the annoying blonde. No, not Sarah, her boyfriend.
"Peachy," I hissed at him.
'Jeez, what's up with her?' I scowled at him and jumped out of the cover.
Suddenly there was a MONSTEROUSLY HUGE ripping noise and the ground beneath us began to shake.
'Ha ha! Pathetic fools! I will devour them all!' And now I could see it, there was a snake directly under Maggie and Sarah, one so big it could swallow us all whole. I ran towards them and shoved us out of the way before the snake on steroids could get to us. Maggie didn't miss a beat. She turned around and started motioning the ice around the snake. Then I blinked. Maggie's eyes had always been green… why were they now Amethyst?
'After all we've been through, all that we've don't, they want a SNAKE to EAT us?! Oh HELL no!!' her thoughts were forced into my mind and I cringed. I watched as the ice quickly went up the snake's nostrils and then covered it's mouth.
"Die you bastard," she hissed. The snake roared in pain as it's giant head swung back, then to the right and to the ground.
'NOW!' it was Sasuke's voice this time, but I couldn't even warn Maggie before I saw the sword come down.
~WTFrenchtoast?!?! Why am I sitting there reading minds?? -kills Sasuke- There, now we can all go home and I can get back to my Itachi-san~ (Sorry Lacey, but the readers like this kind of stuff.. I think..)
SASUKE'S POV
The dull -chink- of sword on ice told me it wasn't over. She just stood there. Lacey's eyes were wide and staring, not at the sword, but her eyes. The girl's ice-covered fingers wrapped around the blade of my sword. And just like that, in a mere second she had turned around and set her amethyst gaze upon me.
The sword now lay half way across the stretch of land we were fighting on. I couldn't smirk even I wanted too. She looked so cool and composed, but underneath I knew she couldn't kill me, she didn't have it in her. I eyed the small cut in her skin from where I broke the crystal ice shield. Only a small wound, not even big enough to fear loss of blood.
My emotionless face turned into a scowl. How could I kill her?
AUTHOR'S NOTE: BETA'd by my bff Lacey, the one who reads minds. Okay guys, I need your help. Should Sasuke live or die? Either one can go with the plot but if he lives.. That means about 3 more chapters of writing for me to this series. So send a message on Quizilla or drop a review in the box on fan fiction. And one more thing guys (even though if you're reading this you're probably a girl), if you have any thing you want me to sketch go to .com I'm taking requests and I check it every day or so. I need more poines for sketching in art class so.. Comic ideas and such are welcome.
