Chapter 3
Day One… Undercover
I plugged in my headphones and spread out my mission file on the top of my bed. I smiled slightly when one of my favorite songs came on. Bobbing my head along to the slow, sad, rock song as my eyes scanned over the documents in front of me.
D' you breathe the name of your savior
In your hour of need
And taste the blame if the flavor,
Should remind you of greed
Of implication, insinuation and ill will,
'Til you connot lie still
I picked up the picture of my target, frowning as I looked for any signs of identity, besides his flame colored hair. My eyes fell upon the window in the background and a smirked crawled onto my lips.
In all this turmoil, before red cape and foil
Come closing in for a kill
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
A blurry reflection showed me all the identification I needed. A red tattoo peeked out from underneath the figures messy hair. I looked closer and noticed that it was the kanji symbol 'Ai' or love. My smile widened and I chuckled.
"I got you now sucker," I said to myself quietly as I set down the picture and picked up a paper describing my whole mission and what Hinata and I were to do.
It's all a game
Avoiding failure
When true colors will bleed
All in the name of misbehavior
And the things we don't need
I lust for after no disaster can touch,
Touch us anymore
And more than ever
I hope to never fall
Where enough is not the same it was before
I read it over quickly, storing all the information in my head for later usage. Hinata and I were to go undercover, track down our target, take him down, and bring him back to headquarters for questioning. I sighed and rubbed the back of my neck. How many times have I gone over these papers again? Five times? Six? I lost track after all the words started to blur together.
Come feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirst for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah, feed the rain
'Cause without your love my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause I'm thirsty for your love
Dancing underneath the skies of lust
Yeah feed the rain
'Cause without your love my life
Ain't nothing but this carnival of rust
I slid off my bed, stood up and stretched. Linking my hands above my head and standing on my tiptoes, hearing and feeling the soft pop of my spine realigning. I unplugged my headphones and put my iPod in it's dock. Listening to the song drift through the speakers as I walked into my bathroom, turned on the shower and started to strip of my clothing.
Don't walk away, Don't walk away
When the world is burning
Don't walk away, Don't walk away
When the heart is yearning
Don't walk away, Don't walk away
When the world is burning
Don't walk away, Don't walk away
When the heart is yearning
As the last soft notes drifted into udder stillness I rinsed the shampoo out of my hair, scrubbing and messaging my fingers along my scalp and neck. Watching with mild interest as the bubbles and dingy looking suds slid down the drain along with the water.
I sighed in content as I turned off the warm water and stepped out the shower, wrapping myself in a big fluffy towel and talking a smaller one and wrapping that around my dripping locks.
I look at myself in the mirror and sigh heavily, "Tomorrow is the start of our mission. Well, lets hope it turns out well."
'I hope we meet some hot guys there,' My inner commented as she drools happily.
I groan and roll my eyes, viciously scrubbing the towel through my hair, 'We have a mission remember?'
'So?' My inner calmly retorts back, 'You can still find a guy while on your mission. It doesn't say anything in the report that you can't date while you're undercover.'
My Inner sounded so smug at her, so called, smart plan, I just rolled my eyes again and tossed my towels in the laundry basket. 'Yeah right. Like I'll have time to sit down with someone, let alone a guy, and have a normal date with him. Lets say I do find a guy there and we start to date, and then the mission is over, what then? I'm going undercover, meaning I stay away from dating guys.'
My inner pouts at my reasoning, 'Well you could still have some fun. One Night Stands! WooHoo!'
I groaned at my inner's lust for nothing but boys and having sex with said boys. I thoroughly ignored my inner's ranting as I busied myself in getting dressed and readying myself for our first day undercover.
~Across Town~
A man smirked as he looked down at a old photo, a cup of steaming coffee sat next to him, untouched. The photo was wrinkled and folded in certain spots, the man's eyes looked distant as he stared at the wrinkled picture.
The picture was of two children, one with bright red hair and a sad expression, and another with bright pink hair and a joyful smile on her face. The pink haired one was making funny faces at the camera and laughing, while the red head just watched her with sad eyes and a small smile.
"I can't wait, Sakura. You and I will be together soon," Said man rubbed his thumb over the face of the pink haired girl in the picture. He folded up the picture, stuffed it in his wallet and downed his, now, cold coffee. He left the little student run café and quietly walked down the darkened street, back to his empty dorm room.
~The next morning~
"Sakura-san! Over here!" I looked over my pile of stuff to see Hinata waving at me from the front of the college entrance.
I waved back to her the best I could, since my arms were full of my bags, and tried to shut the truck of my car.
"Come on. Shut you piece of crap car," I curse under my breath as I tried again, but couldn't quite get it to shut. I growled in irritation as I tried again and again to shut the truck of my car.
"Excuse me, but do you by chance need any help?" A voice from behind me asked. I jumped in surprise and dropped most of the stuff in my arms.
"Shit. This is just perfect," I mumbled to myself as I bent down to pick up my dropped items.
"Here," The voice said again as a slightly tanned hand handed me one of my bags.
"Thanks," I smiled at the person as I looked up and met sparkling sky colored eyes. The person was a guy that was slightly taller than me, he had messy blond hair that fell just short of his eyes, a goofy looking grin on his face, and whisker like marks on his tanned cheeks.
'Oh My Fucking God! He Has Whiskers! Run For Your Life!' I thoroughly ignored my inner's screeching as she ran around in circles in my head. I took the bag from the boy and stood up, shutting my car truck forcefully as I did. It clicked shut and I smirked.
I re-adjusted my bags and looked at the boy with thankful eyes, "Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it."
"It's no problem. Oh! My name's Naruto by the way. Naruto Uzimaki, Believe it!" The boy, Naruto, smiled even wider as I stared at him weirdly.
"Oh….. Okay then, I'm Sakura. Sakura Haruno. It's nice to meet you Naruto-san," I smiled again and began to walk up to Hinata, who waiting patiently for me up by the glass doors of the front building.
The Naruto guy followed after me smiling. 'Is there something wrong with this guy? He wouldn't stop smiling! It's creeping me out!' My inner yelled as she wrinkled her nose and sneered at Naruto.
"Just Naruto is fine," He said as he rubbed the back of his head.
I nodded and looked back up at Hinata for help, her eyes widened, and she came down the steps and stopped in front of me.
"Sakura. Here, let me help you with those. They must be heavy," She said in her quiet voice as she took a few bags from me.
"Thanks Hinata. I really appreciate it," I smiled at her and she smile back at me
"Here. I'll help too," Naruto said as he took a heavy bag from Hinata, she looked up at Naruto, as if just now noticing him.
"Oh!" She gasped and blushed dark red, "I-it's f-fine. I-I don't ne-need help."
Naruto just smiled and waved off her attempt to stop him, "It's fine. I'm Naruto by the way."
Hinata blushed even redder, if that was possible, and bowed her head, "He-hello N-Naruto-san. I'm H-Hinata."
I struggled a little as I walked up the steps and to the front doors, leaving behind the blushing Hinata and the annoying Naruto. I reached my hand out to open the door and almost dropped some of my stuff, again!, when the door opened suddenly.
"Hey! Watch what you're doing, Baka!" I yelled angerly at the person in front of me.
