Chapter 9

Sasuke spun around to face Orochimaru, but the snake had already disappeared.

"Fuck!!"

He scanned the area, sharingan spinning, desperately searching for anything that would show him which way they had gone, but there was nothing. Not a single trace of them remained.

"No..." he breathed, "no no no.. NO! Goddamnit!!"

He raced over to Kakashi's tent, and found it had been sliced open as well. As had Sakura's. When he peered inside, he saw something sticking out of his neck, rendering him unconscious.

Another one of Kabuto's inventions, no doubt.

He reached in and yanked the thing out, then tossed it to the side. He had just checked his pulse when the jonin's eye flew open. He looked alarmed as he stared up at the raven peering down at him from the gaping hole in his tent. "What happened?" he asked, his voice thick with concern.

Sasuke clenched his jaw tight. "Orochimaru and Kabuto. They took him", he swallowed down the lump that gathered in the back of his throat, "they took Naruto."

Kakashi's face, at least what he could see of it, paled. "How..?"

"A metal collar- one of their experiments. Orochimaru has full control of whoever's wearing it. I think it diminishes chakra as well." His eyes hardened. "Kakashi, we need to find him. Orochimaru, he.."

"He what?"

"He seemed interested in.. in Naruto. In doing.. things to him.." Embarrassment flooded through him. "He saw us.. and he-"

Kakashi cut in, "I understand." An image of Orochimaru forcing himself on Naruto slammed into his head, filling him with disgust.

That can't happen, he told himself. That won't happen. But we'll need to move.

Fast.

"Where's Sakura?"

Sasuke gestured in the direction of her tent. "She was knocked out too."

"Wake her. I'll summon my Ninken to track them." He placed a hand on the raven's shoulder, giving it a light squeeze. "We'll find him, Sasuke."

Sasuke nodded, not trusting his voice.

As Sasuke ran off to get Sakura, Kakashi summoned his dog companions and quickly explained the situation. The pack decided on which direction each of them would take, then took off.

Kakashi rushed over to the others. "We should start in the Hidden Mist. We're not that far off from the village, and the people there might have some clues on where to find Orochimaru's hideout. Pakkun and the others will report in if they find anything out here."

Sasuke reluctantly agreed.

He didn't want to leave Naruto out here, but they had no way of knowing which direction to take. If they could learn something from the villagers that would put them on the right path, it was worth the detour.

"Alright. Let's go."

The three leapt into action, with Sasuke leading the way.

Just hang on, Naruto. Please, just hang on.

I will find you.

I promise.

Kabuto tossed Naruto unceremoniously into a dark cell, grinning as the blonde fell to the ground. Naruto pushed himself up and turned to glare at the silver snake. "What do you want with me?"

"I'm not the one you should be asking."

Orochimaru.

Naruto curled his hands into tight fists.

Whatever he's got planned.. it's not going to be pleasant.

He thought about the gleam in Orochimaru's eyes when he talked to Sasuke about him.. the way his tongue slithered towards him like he wanted to have a taste. Naruto shivered.

I can't let him get near me. I can't let him.. he turned his face away, swallowing back the bile rising in his throat.

No. That's not going to happen.

I won't let that bastard touch me.

He wasn't going to just lie back and take this. He refused to be Orochimaru's victim.

Naruto Uzumaki does not go down without a fight.

Kabuto watched the blonde carefully, noting the determined look in his eyes. "I don't think you have fully grasp the predicament you're in, Naruto. Orochimaru has full control of that collar you're wearing..

.. which means he has full control of you."

Cerulean eyes narrowed. "I won't let him get anywhere near me."

"Oh my dear jinchuriki... you really don't have a choice."

Orochimaru stepped up behind Kabuto, and the silver snake quickly slid out of his way. Golden eyes shifted to his apprentice. "You may go now, Kabuto."

Kabuto looked like he wanted to say something, but seemed to think better of it. He took a small bow towards his master, gave a smirk to the blonde, then left. Leaving Naruto, on the floor of his cell, a leering snake slowly moving towards him.

Orochimaru stepped inside, and closed the cell door behind him, sending a rush of panic through the blonde's entire body. He scrambled back from as he approached, but didn't get very far before his back hit the wall.

"St-stay away from me!" Naruto shouted, trying to sound braver than he felt but unable to keep his voice from shaking.

Orochimaru noticed, and it only seemed to excite him more. "Oh I have no intention of doing that.."

He suddenly leapt towards the blonde, but Naruto moved fast and managed to dodge him. He stumbled to his feet and raced for the door. He grabbed it with trembling fingers and tried to pry it open, but it must lock from the outside because he couldn't get it to budge. Before he could get any further, Orochimaru grabbed a fistful of blonde hair and yanked him back.

"Ahhhh!" Naruto cried out as the snake roughly pulled him back. He tore at the man's hands, trying to loosen their grasp, but the snake was completely unfazed. He pulled the blonde against him, wrapping an arm around his waist to hold him close.

"And where do you think you're going?" he purred, his lips brushing against his ear.

He tried to turn his head away, but the fist in his hair kept him still. Naruto gasped as Orochimaru jerked his head further back.

"St-stop!"

Naruto tried to pull free, but froze when he felt the hand around his waist slither beneath his shirt and move across his stomach. He inhaled sharply, eyes wide with horror.

"What-what the fuck are you doing?!" he shrieked.

Orochimaru yanked the blonde's head to the side, exposing his neck. Naruto continue to struggle in his grasp, but it was of little use. He had him, and he had no chance of escaping. The snake's tongue slowly slid down Naruto's neck, sending a shiver of revulsion down his spine. "D-don't!"

Orochimaru ignored his protests and moved his tongue further around the blonde's throat, tightening his hold, constricting his airway. Naruto gasped, digging his fingernails into the snake's tongue, fighting to pull it away, when he felt a hand fingering the waistband of his pants.

No.

No!

NO!!

He grabbed the snake's wrist with one hand as he fought to pry the tongue away from this throat.

Don't touch me, don't touch me, Don't fucking touch me!!

Orochimaru slowly loosened his tongue from Naruto's throat, taking his time as he pulled it back into his mouth. Naruto coughed and gagged violently as he pulled much needed air back into his tortured lungs. Tears stung in the corner of his eyes, and he quickly blinked them away.

Please.. please make this stop. Please..

With one hand buried in blonde hair, forcing his head back, Orochimaru used the other to flick open the button on his pants. Naruto froze as Orochimaru's fingers moved to his crotch, yanking down the zipper.

"N-no.. NO!"

"Mmmmm..." Orochimaru moaned, his warm breath penetrating his ear, "I can't wait to taste more.."

Naruto tried to do a jutsu, but he couldn't sense his chakra. Even the Kyuubi's chakra was diminished, a low hum of power, nearly non-existent.

Shit. It's the collar- it must be draining my chakra..

So, he did the next best thing. Naruto threw his elbow back into the snake's ribs, and kicked him in the shin as hard as he could.

Orochimaru's pained groan quickly turned into a fierce growl. He grabbed Naruto's wrist and yanked it behind him, shoving his arm up at an impossible angle. Naruto screamed in pain as the snake wrenched it up further. He could feel his shoulder straining, ready to pop out of its socket.

"I tried to be gentle with you, jinchuriki. But I can be rough if that's how you want to do this."

Orochimaru threw him to the ground, hard.

"Ughnn.." Naruto's head slammed against the concrete, sending dark splotches across his vision. He could feel blood sliding down the side of his face and matting in his hair. He slowly pushed himself up on his hands and knees, but Orochimaru kicked him back down.

Naruto groaned as the snake yanked him back up by his hair. He opened one eye, a trail of blood forcing him to keep the other one closed. Orochimaru snarled, then punched him across the face, sending him reeling back down to the ground.

Naruto's face collided with a jagged piece of rock, and he could feel the sharp edge slice across his cheek. He tried to crawl away, but didn't get very far.

"Uhhnn!"

Orochimaru kicked him over onto his back, and dropped down on top of him, straddling his waist. Naruto threw out a punch, but the snake grabbed his wrist and forced it to the ground. He managed to scratch a long gash across his face before Orochimaru pinned down the other one.

Naruto thrashed beneath him, kicking and screaming- fighting to pull free, but the snake only pressed closer. He leaned in, putting more weight on his wrists until they felt like they were going to break.

"Nnnn! N-no! Get off of me!"

Orochimaru leaned in, eyes gleaming with interest, with amusement... with lust.

Naruto jerked his face away, screaming. "GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!!

"No reason to be shy now, jinchuriki. I saw you with Uchiha. I know what you like.." Orochimaru bared his fangs as his tongue unfurled from his mouth, eager for another taste.

"No! NO!!" Naruto kicked his legs out, trying to throw the snake off of him, but he was completely powerless beneath him.

And Orochimaru knew it.

"Help me.. someone, please! HELP!! PLEASE!!"

"No one is coming for you, Naruto. It's just us."

Tears filled those terrified blue eyes as he stared at the wall, too repulsed and afraid to look at the man on top of him.

"D-don't", he choked. "Ple-please.. please don't do this.."

Orochimaru forced both of his arms above his head, then reached down to grab something from the inside of his robe.

Something that shined in the dim light..

Something that snapped closed around his wrists.

Naruto looked up, and was horrified to find another one of Orochimaru's metal collars- locking his wrists together.

He took in a sharp breath, and jerked his head down to stare at the snake in horror.

Orochimaru grinned.

"Stay."
