I LOVE THIS CHAPTER! Oh, it'll piss you off so much. x3 Ahahaha...Anyways, since people seemed mad about my last chapter, I decided to be nice and update with something a bit longer. Ah yes, there will be a bit of shounen-ai (boy on boy) in this fanfiction, but ONLY A LITTLE! And that's because I originally wrote this for my yaoi-obsessed friend. So yes, some SasuNaru, but I PROMISE, it's not gonna end SasuNaru/SaiSaku, even if it kinda looks that way.
Chapter Eleven — Hate
Naruto ran down the street, panting heavily with each step he took. 'No way...She had been about to...' He stopped in his tracks, taking deep breaths. 'DAMMIT, fucking coward!' Naruto turned swiftly to face a brick wall.
"FUUUUUCK!" he screamed angrily, punching the wall with all the strength he could muster. Blood dripped down his knuckles, but he ignored it, angry tears stinging his eyes. "She's going to hate me for running away..."
"Yes, indeed she will, Naruto-kun." a gentle voice whispered into his ear. Naruto shuddered and swung himself around in shock. A women, with long black curly locks and harsh, dark cold eyes was smirking at him, merely a few inches away. Though it seemed her forehead protector wasn't visible, he could tell by her scene where she came from. She was an Oto-nin. The fact she wore a purple bow around her waist was pretty much a dead giveaway, anyways.
Naruto twitched away from her. "Who are you?" he snarled, silently putting a hand over his shuriken pouch in case the time came he needed to attack. The women didn't reply for a moment, as if thinking of a response, and then finally shrugged.
"An...acquaintance, perhaps?" she inquired. Naruto shook his head, disgusted. "I suppose not." she sighed. "A friend of a friend, then? Is that good enough for you, Naruto-kun?"
Naruto continued to glare at her, suspicious. "You're one of Orochimaru's followers." he snapped. The women laughed cruel. A cold, high-pitched laugh.
"Follower!? My dear boy, I am more like his MASTER, thank you very much. Believe it or not, I'm over thirty years older than Orochimaru. I helped train the Legendary Three's wonderful snake tamer!" The women threw back her head and laughed again. Then her eyes grew cold. "Yet, he is acknowledged. Oh, it's not like he'd be dead without my training, oh no." Her voice dripped with sarcasm.
Naruto could only blink with the shock he felt. The information was indeed very overwhelming, and quite interesting as well. "If that's the truth..." He paused. "Then you must know Sasuke, and you're partially his sensei as well. So why — what did you do!?" Naruto's eyes widened as he remember the sound of that annoying flute playing earlier in the hospital.
"Yes, that was me..." the women murmured softly. She swiftly reached her hand into her jacket and pulled out a flute of clear crystal and blew into it carefully, making the same melody from before. "I meant to the kill the women, but I changed my mind at the last minute, for that would have been harsh. And then! You ran away! You stupid boy! So I just hit your other friend with two kunai. I don't doubt the lovely young lady is mourning over his death right now." the women cooed. By now, Naruto was shaking with rage.,
"Bitch! What do you want from me!?" yelled Naruto, clenching his still bleeding fists and baring his teeth.
"Sasuke-kun, of course! He never had the courage — or he just didn't want to — to wear a Otokagure forehead protector! Oh, that makes me so mad. I plan on using you, love, to make him come back to us. To me. Poor Naruto. You have no idea about Sasuke's feelings!" the women explained, reaching out and stroking his hair. "He is so jealous of that cute girl you're so madly in love with. He'd do anything to be in her place." she continued, voice. "I feel so bad for him."
Naruto was shock. "Sa-Sasuke isn't—! I don't know what you're getting at, but—! God...dammit!" he snapped, stomach falling.
"If you're worrying about his sexuality, he wasn't like that before he came to us." Orochimaru's sensei said, sounding bored. "It's Orochimaru's fault, always ranting about women and how all they ever do is seduce men. Ahh, I don't even want to think about him." She shook her shining locks with the same amount of disgust Naruto had had before, and then stared at the blonde.
"Who...are you?"
"My name is Akina. Pleased, call me that, Naruto-kun. Sasuke is my...friend. Personally, I think he matters more to me than Orochimaru. Well, he does. Be forewarned, however...Sasuke is more powerful than ever before." Akina murmured, stroking Naruto's cheek. "Be afraid."
Naruto had never been so frightened in his life. His heart was racing at top-speed. He had been given too much information all at one time, and his brain was cramped. A shudder ran down his spine as Akina brushed her lips against his cheek.
"Good luck, Naruto. I will bring Sasuke-kun back. I swear it." whispered the women, before her body started to dissolve. Naruto stared at the empty space and then fell to his knees.
"It all fits..." he whispered weakly to himself. "Fuck it all...bastards...It's not fair..." he groaned, clutching his head. It would never be fair.
He stepped forward and over to the counter, sighing. "Ummm...What number is Sai's room?" he asked the nurse weakly. He really didn't want to see Sai at the moment, but he had to make sure he was alright. Naruto was beginning to blame himself for the horrible mess.
"Oh, he didn't stay in the hospital. Stubborn thing wouldn't let us even heal his wounds. He seemed angry. Sakura-san was the only one he'd let help him." the nurse explained. "He went back to her house." Naruto bit his lip, thanked the nurse, and left, heading for Sakura's house.
He knocked on the door, and waited impatiently. His stomach was squirming at the thought of seeing them again, but he had to, he knew he had to. The door opened, and Sakura stood in front of him.
"Sakura-chan, I'm glad you're feeling bet—" He was cut off, struck across the face with a hard slap. "Wh-what the hell, Sakura-chan!?" he cried, looking at her, confused. He rubbed the bruise, and stepped backwards, seeing her incredibly angry expression.
"Everyone I ever trust always turns out to be a traitor! I take back everything, Naruto! EVERYTHING! I don't love you. I do care that you're the horrible fox demon. Bastard." The words she spoke struck Naruto harder than her hand had. He watched her cry and his ripped heart throbbed.
"Sakura-chan, no...You can't mean that. Sakura-chan...No." His voice was now hoarse and tough, weaker than a whisper. Before he could yell her name, the door had been slammed in his face.
So, what do you guys think of Akina? Personally, I kinda like her. xD My favorite couple with her? NaruAki. OC-OTP! Lol, sorry, I'm a bit sugar high...Anyways, reviews are ALWAYS loved! Things should be cleared up in the next chapter. This is the last plot twist in the fanfiction, only four more chapters to go!
Lovers,
