"Lord Sasuke?"
"Hmm...so you're finally awake. Want to join me?"
"Would you like me to?"
"Well, I'd like to see your body again if nothing else," he admitted with a shrug. He opened an eye when she didn't reply and saw her frowning. "Don't look so upset. I saved your brother, didn't I? I'm not asking too much, am I?"
She shook her head quietly. She shrugged off her kimono and walked quickly to the pond, slipping in across from the man. She sank low, the water up to her nose, her long hair floating in the water. She looked over at him, half her face covered with her pink hair. She watched him, the god resting with his eyes shut. She shifted a little, scooting just a little closer.
"Um...Lord Sasuke?" she finally said. "I...I don't want to bother you, but..."
He remained motionless for several seconds before he opened his eyes. He stared right at her, locking eyes with her. He held her gaze as he reached up to rub his crescent moon scar, barely touching it with the tips of his fingers. He lowered his hand and finally nodded. "What is it, Sakura? Are you hungry?"
She shook her head.
"No, I ate the food you left me. Thank you. But...shouldn't you check on some of the other villages? You did make a promise..."
He breathed deeply, exhaling slowly, blowing the steam away from his face. He had made a promise, though so did she. He studied her for a moment before clearing his throat.
"Very well. But I want something from you before I leave."
"Of course, Lord Sasuke. What would you like?"
Sasuke sank into the water with a smirk and moved to her, popping back up behind her. He wrapped his arms around her and pressed his forehead against her shoulder. He gripped her hips tightly and said, "Well, I want your body." He cupped her breasts and kissed her neck. He chuckled as she tensed up a little. "What is it?"
"I...I've never done this sort of thing before, Lord Sasuke."
He stopped teasing her body and pulled away from her. Though he knew he could just take what he wanted from her, he had an idea that he thought would be far more fun for him. He moved out of the water and sat on the edge of the pond, looking down at her. Sakura looked up as the steam cleared and blushed as she found herself with her face near his crotch. He was already getting hard, and Sakura guessed his length was around 8 inches long once it became fully hard. He reached out slowly, then gripped her hair tightly, pulling her face closer.
"Name the village and I'll head out soon," he murmured.
"M...Mistpeak," she whispered, blushing as he pressed his cock against her face. It was warm against her cheek, and each twitch made her shiver. "What do I do?" She paused, glancing at his shaft. "I mean...with your penis," she explained, whispering the last part so softly that he barely heard her.
"Just use your tongue for now. I'll enjoy the rest of your body at some point."
Sakura took a deep breath as she pulled back from his shaft, relaxing only a little as he let go of her hair and allowed her to move. She leaned forward willingly this time and stuck her tongue out, pressing it against his shaft. It twitched a little and so the woman repeated it a few times. With no experience, she had no idea how to pleasure the man.
When he suddenly pulled away, she looked up with a soft frown. "Lord Sasuke...? I'm sorry, I'm not..."
"Perhaps your village should have taught you how to pleasure as well as all the other things you learned," he muttered. He stood from the pond and with a snap of his fingers his clothes formed on him. "I'll go check on...Mistpeak, was it? Watch the house while I'm away, and if anybody shows up, kill them." He paused, seeing tears in her eyes. He let out a frustrated sigh and stomped his food. Slowly, a short, crimson sword formed in front of her. The blade had a feint glow to it and gave off a pleasant warmth. "This is Sun Strike. It will allow you to call on the power of the sun during battle to burn your enemies away." He kicked it into the pond, splashing water in the woman's face. "Try not to lose it." Without waiting to see how she'd react, Sasuke walked off and faded away.
He didn't see Sakura crying, covering her face with her hands.
The village Sasuke arrived at was far worse than Sakura's. It had no walls, and most of the homes seemed damaged in some way. Broken doors, missing chunks of the roofs or entire walls broken. There were several dead bodies in the streets as well as sick and injured. Crying, coughing and whimpers could be heard all through the village. The middle of the small village had a large pit of burning bodies. To handle disease, Sasuke figured. The entirety of Mistpeak smelled horribly of death and decay.
No wonder Sakura had picked this village.
"Get out of our village, outsider!"
Sasuke looked over as a blonde man, no older than 18, rushed at him with a small dagger. He had blue eyes and his blonde hair was spiky and dirty like the rest of the village, with odd whisker marks on his cheeks. When the blonde reached him, and attempted to stick the blade between his ribs, Sasuke's body became smoke. The blade passed through him harmlessly and he stepped out of the way before becoming solid once more. He slammed his fist into the boy's chest, a sickening cracking sound heard when his fist hit. The boy fell back, coughing blood and clutching his chest. Despite the damage, he didn't shed a single tear. Sasuke liked this.
"If you're going to kill a god, get a bigger knife, kid. Who are you?" A ball of light left Sasuke's chest and floated over to the injured blonde. The orb lowered into his mouth, glowing brightly before it faded away, fixing the ribs that were broken.
When he stopped writhing in pain, and could speak, the boy glared. "I'm Naruto Uzumaki," he said as he sat up, wiping the blood from his mouth. "Who the hell are you?"
"You aren't very bright are you? I told you I'm a god. How many of those do you know of?" He sighed and shook his head. "Anyway. Why does your village need me? What caused this place to fall apart."
It was Naruto's turn to become angry. He stood in front of Sasuke and shoved him hard. For just a split second, his eyes seemed to turn red before returning to normal. "If you hadn't left us alone, things wouldn't be so bad! My parents are dead! You created humans, right? Then why haven't you done anything to keep us safe?!" He shoved the god again and let out a frustrated scream. "You created the monsters!"
Sasuke stepped closer, grabbing the blonde by the throat. He backed him up into a rundown house, slamming him into the rotten wall. He leaned in, speaking in a flat tone. "I may have created your kind, boy. But what you do isn't my problem. Yell at me again and I'll burn this worthless village to the ground, got it? Now tell me what I need to know."
"Fine, you bastard. There's been a monster coming around lately. As long as it's alive, we'll never be able to fix things here."
Sasuke let him go and stepped back, looking around the village. He wasn't sure it was worth the effort saving, but he had made a promise to Sakura and her village. Still, he wasn't used to dealing with humans. Were they all so loud and annoying? Maybe creating them had been a mistake. A very tiny voice in the back of his mind pointed out some were good, like Sakura. He forced himself to stop thinking of the woman and turned his focus back to Naruto.
"Let's go, boy. You'll take me to this monster and I'll handle the rest."
The young man seemed unsure about helping, but then narrowed his eyes as he thought about his parents. He nodded a little and began walking away from the village, not wanting the others to be involved. The village had already suffered enough, there was no way he'd bring more misery to them. They walked until the village was out of sight and the two were standing in an open field. "We'll do this here."
Sasuke studied his surroundings. There would be nowhere for the monster to hide, when it showed up, and nothing it could use against them. "Tell me about this monster."
"We don't exactly have a lot of survivors we can ask, ya know. But, it seems to have...some sort of magic. It looks like it can produce your greatest fear to use against you. Not only that, but its claws have some weird poison that causes extreme paranoia and fear. Other than that, I guess it's just a big beast. Hits really hard."
"I see...Is there anything else I need to know?"
"That's all I know...Well, it does seem to have some kind of poison. But I'm sure a god like you will be just fine. Now, I'm going home. Don't bother showing your face again until you fix this."
Sasuke sighed as he sat. He decided to rest up until the monster arrived, unsure of which of his creations he would be fighting. From Naruto's information, it sounded vaguely familiar. He couldn't be sure though. When you had eternity, memories began to blur together after awhile. He closed his eyes and sat completely motionless.
Luckily, he didn't have to wait too long. When the ground began to rumble, he opened his eyes once more.
The monster was large, at least 10 feet tall and standing on two legs. The surface of its body looked as if blood was flowing over it. It had horns coming from its head, large fangs and hollow eyes. Its fingers ended in claws, the arms massive. When it saw Sasuke, a look of hate appeared on its face.
"You..." it whispered. Its voice was deep and rough, a soft snarl coming out with his words. "You will be my dinner."
"I somehow doubt that. Trust me, I'm a lot harder to kill than I look."
The monster rushed him, swinging his fists downward. Dozens of vines burst from the ground and wrapped around his arms, holding them in place an inch from Sasuke's face.
"Look, I'm a god. This isn't going to go how you expect."
The monster ripped the vines and grabbed Sasuke by the face. He lifted him and began to squeeze, but Sasuke turned into a dark smoke and floated several feet behind the creature. He reformed, rubbing his jaw slowly. He watched as the monster turned toward him. "I told you, there's really nothing you can do to me. I'm a god. The only thing you'll accomplish is prolonging your death."
Sasuke watched as a small spot of darkness appeared in the ground in front of him. He watched as it spread. The darkness covered the grass and soon he was standing in total darkness, unable to see even an inch of front of his face. For the first time in centuries, he felt uneasy. He felt cold and his body began to grow numb from the sudden temperature drop. He shivered and rubbed his arms. He snapped his fingers, trying to force the darkness away. It didn't work. He tried a few more times and became more tense with each unsuccessful try. He began to walk and scanned the darkness for any sign of the monster. If he killed the beast, the darkness would leave, right? It would be so easy for a god to accomplish.
And yet as Sasuke walked, eyes darting around, his fear only grew. He wasn't sure why, but the darkness felt...familiar.
"Where the fuck are you?" he shouted. "Your little trick won't do you any good when I find you."
He stopped walking when he heard a soft wheezing to his right. He turned his head and looked down, his heart pounding against his chest. When an ice cold hand gripped his ankle, Sasuke flinched and closed his eyes tightly. He forced himself to look again when the icy hand squeezed harder. When he looked down, he finally saw the body. The flesh was gone, leaving only a skeleton. Its teeth were cracked, most of them missing. Despite this, it seemed to smirk up at him.
"You let me die, Sasuke," the skeleton said, the few remaining teeth clacking together. "And after all these years as a god, you haven't saved me?"
"Who..." Sasuke's voice broke. He cleared his voice and pulled away, bringing the skeletal arm with him. The skeleton laughed, teeth breaking as they clacked together. "Who the fuck are you?"
The skeleton slowly sat up. Its eye sockets glowed briefly before returning to darkness.
"Don't act so tough, boy," the skeleton replied. "I know your future. We both know you'll die alone."
Sasuke kicked the skeleton away. The bones turned to dust the moment he touched them, the wind blowing it away. He stared for a moment before shaking his head. "This isn't real," he muttered. "It can't be..." He looked down at his hands and frowned. "No...it isn't real. That boy...Naruto? He said this would happen."
He narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists as he looked around. "There's no point using illusions on me! They..." He cleared his throat when his voice broke. "They won't work on me anymore. Show your..." Before he could finish his words, one of the horns from the monster pierced through his body, stabbing through his left lung. Blood dripped from the tip of the horn and pooled at his feet. He reached up and grabbed the horn as he looked into the monster's eyes.
"Little weakling," the monster snarled. "You'll die like all the others."
"I've tried that already," Sasuke muttered. "It's a little hard for me to die." He gripped the horn tighter and ripped it from the monster's head. They stumbled back from each other, the monster roaring in pain as Sasuke removed the horn from his chest. "I don't care about those villagers, but I promised someone I would help them." He spit out blood and threw the horn forward. It turned into 100 shards midair, each piece stabbing into the monster's chest. The shards slowly sank into his body, the wounds sealing shut one by one. The monster screamed once more and rushed forward. He got within inches of Sasuke when the ground beneath its feet softened. The monster quickly sank until only its head was visible.
Barely able to breathe, Sasuke kneeled in front of the monster and placed his hand on its head. He coughed harshly, staining the grass below with his blood. He stared at the monster, his vision starting to blur. "You..." he began, his voice barely a wheeze. "You will...never...hurt that village again..." Too weak to say more, Sasuke simply let the ground swallow the rest of the demon. He stood, legs trembling and body aching, and began to walk away from the battle. As he lost more blood it became harder to focus. With the last of his energy he focused and teleported himself home. He arrived in his room and found Sakura resting in bed.
"Lord Sasuke...?" the woman began. She gasped when she saw him and sat up. "Lord Sasuke, you're bleeding! What happened?!" she shouted.
Sasuke said nothing and instead stumbled over. He fell into bed, his eyes shutting. "I..." he whispered.
"Lord Sasuke...?"
"I don't...want to...die alone..." he whispered.
