Chapter Thirty-Three: Seeing Red

Sasuke was angry, with her. She had never really truly felt his sustained anger at herself. The worst thing was that she had no idea what could have possibly done to incite it.

They'd been doing some light sparring, and he was hitting harder than normal. She was a big girl, and could take a hit, but the remarks that accompanied her moves made her grit her teeth in anger.

His abruptness, rudeness, and overall nastiness was wearing, and though normally she overlooked his biting remarks to others and occasionally herself. This time she wasn't going to stand for it!
