Kabuto wrapped Naruto's side in a bandage. He looked up at him and smiled. "This is awfully strange, Naruto, isn't it?"
Naruto rose his head with a struggle, gritting his teeth as pain ran through him. He quietly asked, "What?"
Kabuto chuckled. "You're the one in our custody now. It's a strange turn of events, you know. It was hard to leave the tracker on you and more than that, to poison you as well. Especially when you were on high guard. I can't believe you're still looking for Sasuke-kun."
The pain was unbearable! It was burning like fire, but Kabuto had broke him from the uneasy feeling. Did he happen to know where Sasuke-kun was? And what tracker? "G-," Naruto coughed up blood. "Go to hell."
"Hmf." Kabuto looked up at Naruto's shoulder and noticed that a lump stuck out strangely along his shoulder. "Your shoulder's twisted." He removed the cuff on the blond's hand and grabbed hold of his arm. "Hold still." He quickly tugged on it, the sound of a pop echoed in the cave.
"Ghaaaa!" Naruto gasped for air, his eyes wide in shock and pain. He had never known pain this unbearable. Even when he fought Pain of the six paths...
Kabuto rose the boy's arm back and cuffed it. "I'll see you later, Naruto." He stepped out of the cell and closed the door behind him, locking it with a key.
Naruto lowered his head. Why couldn't he do anything? He thought he was stronger than ever now that he trained and studied even harder than before. But now that he faced the enemy they felt to powerful for him. He couldn't do anything now, but why? Why? Why Why? Why?! Don't I want to become Hokage?
He walked into the room, returning from long hours of training. It was nearing sunrise and he wanted to rest for a while before he retreated for more experience. Damn it, my eyes hurt. He moved up the rocky steps and into the dark room. A tunnel leading to several different rooms stood before him. He turned a corner and noticed a small, glimmering light at the far end of one of them.
I wonder what's going on in there. He walked in to find a long and expanding cell, a long shadow within, and the sound of panting inside.
