Apron-Sting: : A Failed Weapon

Chapter 13

"I think I know what Danzo is after. It has to be the legend of the diamond, it all makes sense"

"What legend?"

"Didn't you ever read the books given to you?"

"The legend of the diamond," A book was placed before Kimimaro and Juugo as Karin crossed her arms. "Diamonds are the most sought-after gemstone because of their crystalline brilliance, but also because of the legend behind them. They are thought to ward off evil spirits, sickness, and floods." She shrugged. "They also appeal because it's a birthstone for the month of April, signifying innocence."

"Why would Danzo want that though?" Juugo asked, "It sounds like something surreal, something that humans have made up, really"

"There must be a source behind it," Because where there was innocence, there was ignorance. Where there was ignorance, there was a sure way to sway anyone's mind. Danzo might not only want to be taking care of his own health before his transformation, but he also wanted them to be clueless followers to his words. In all, he was preparing himself for everything! This would make it much more impossible for them to turn on him and take him down.

Too bad, he could never be like them, and could never understand them.

For a second that morning, Suigetsu was lost, he felt as though he should not be outside, although, it was everyone's wish to be out the dark tunnels that Danzo has named "Home". Coming to consciousness, he had freaked out, who would not at the feel of someone next to him, with their arms around their waist. Especially when it was not a common occurrence to have someone in their bed. He had tried to put up a fight, but his nerve endings were sore and everything ached. The little bit of thrashing he had done had been silenced when Kisame had spoke.

"Stop your damn moving I'm never letting you go, so you can forget it." That had stopped Suigetsu completely; Kisame's voice washing over him calming him and reminding him that he was safe. Now in Kisame's arms, he could not help but feel whole, and although, he would not let Suigetsu out of his hold, Suigetsu really did not mind it. Never had he felt wanted. To be used, yes, to be wanted, no. Although, that was not the only thing he had found startling about that morning. As soon as he settled and relaxed back into Kisame's arms, he had glanced around the room.

His eyes landed on his leader. He almost had a heart attack when he saw Sasuke, his leader, his cold and heartless leader nestled comfortably in the enemy's arms. It almost made Sasuke look cute and cuddly, when he was sure that had to be impossible.

Suigetsu knew, now he had seen everything, really, nothing else would ever surprise him than the scene he now witnessed. 'Something is different about Sasuke here, and something has certainly changed within me' He thought to himself, but sighed, and slowly drifted to a light sleep feeling safe in Kisame's arms. After all, he too was close to the enemy in the same intimate embrace.

He just hoped it was not as cute and cuddly as Sasuke with the enemy.

Nothing…nothing but static.

Danzo felt panicked and frustrated. Last night, as he had slept, he had lost signal on Sasuke and Suigetsu. They seem to have just vanished out the radar. Everything he has been wanting seems to be slipping past his fingers, and just when he thought his plan could move forward! Ever since he had killed Chiyo, he felt as though some things have been planed rash and not well thought. Danzo was contemplating on whether he should send Kyuubi to find Sasuke and Suigetsu. Sasuke his prized 'pet' was missing and that was unacceptable. He could care less about Suigetsu; all he wanted back was Sasuke.

Sasuke, who is his, priced pet, his precious jewel, and one and only fantastic work of art.

Danzo took a deep breath and he straightened himself in his chair with a weary look on his face "No matter, forget the consequences; Kyuubi must get my pets back. Kimimaro and Karin must also collect the diamond, and everything will be on track again." He muttered to himself reassuringly. Danzo could be seen going slightly insane, he never really had missing pets without the device in their ears that still has a string tied back to him; complete control. He could see what they saw, and he could even force them back, but without the device…he was afraid his pets might be gone. No. Danzo refused to believe that.

What Danzo did not realize was that his life was about to expire, he had messed with the wrong beings, and forgot that no matter how they are beaten to submission, they will never really be loyal; and now they plan his death. Karin, who was hidden within the shadows, watched as Danzo slowly broke down; she had gone to see if her 'Master' was asleep so she could gather the data that she and her friends needed. It was only a matter of time before they were all free, after all, they were not meant to be controlled, and by a human. Well that just made it more unbearable.

Shock had filled every pore of her body when she had heard that Sasuke and Suigetsu were missing and there was no way to trace them back. Danzo was even so desperate that he planned for Kyuubi to be the one to retrieve them. No wonder Danzo was going crazy, his ultimate weapon, Sasuke, was missing, of the radar, and nowhere to be found without the slightest clue. It made her curious really, at how the situation seemed to have turned in their favor. With Sasuke and Suigetsu free, she knew that Sasuke would have a plan to better infiltrate the area, and break them out of this hellhole.

She watched as Danzo stood up, and she smirked as he slipped into his restroom. He was definitely going to freshen up and probably even call the meeting in secret with just Kyuubi so she and Kimimaro would not know as they left for their own mission. Still, they could not leave until Sasuke and Suigetsu returned to him. She immediately slipped out of the room when the opportunity came and she rushed over to the others. She needed to let them know that Sasuke and Suigetsu were free. She needed to let them know about what Danzo planned, that way they could talk and give Kyuubi all the information he would need so they could let Sasuke know what was going on. If that was passed on and it was made clear, they would no doubt prevail.

Sasuke felt, what was the word, oh yes…wonderful.

He felt protected and in a way, he really could not explain…his eyes were still closed, but his mind was conscious. There seemed to be a cool breeze running across the short soft locks of his hair, and that alone made his surroundings feel somewhat different. He didn't think much about it for a second, as he comfortable laid on his side, but did feel alerted when arms slid over his waist and seemed to pull him closer to a warm chest. He quickly snapped his eyes open, thinking he was too late for a reaction as if he was safe. Why was he feeling safe?

Once his eyes were opened, they took some time to focus, and for him to understand that he had his face buried into a soft, sweet-scented, warm black shirt. His eyes became half lidded as he allowed himself to return to a more calm state, as he moved his hand up, for his own pale fingers to grip into the cloth of the shirt. The arms around him seemed to tighten and he let out a content sigh. This was nice. Suddenly a pleasured shiver ran down his spine as he felt a pair of lips press at the side of his face, and a warm breath that tickled him "Are you awake?"

Sasuke shifted, as his breath caught at the soft whisper. "Umn" he softly groaned and pressed deeper into the chest, begging it not to end this moment of comfort. There was a slight chuckle, and then whatever he had himself wrapped around on, started to pull away. This made him open his eyes, as he uncurled himself, and let go of whomever he was holding onto. The reality of it all seemed to take some time to seep into his brain until he was finally fully conscious and suspicious all at once.

There was light here, but not artificial. Warm brown rich colors, and as he turned on his back, a guy was over him, looking down with curiosity. He searched his mind for what had happened the day...No night before, and where he was- and then it all came crashing down on him. The mission, Suigetsu crashing the village, a sudden force of power coming their way, Suigetsu taken down, someone attacking him…the fight…the blows, and then…then he saw him and then there was pain and darkness.

He blinked, and looked into eyes dark and equally as fathomless as his, "Itachi" He gasped.

Itachi raised an eyebrow as he stare down at Sasuke's small figure under him. For a moment, the beauty looked like he was lost in his mind, a retrospection of the night before. He nearly smirked when Sasuke remembered who he was. "That's right," he murmured, reaching his hand to touch his cheek, finding it to be surprisingly soft. Sasuke easily turned into his touch, the boy seeming completely comfortable under him.

Sasuke watched as Itachi leaned in, and pressed their foreheads together. The contact was electrifying, and a part of him was fighting to connect with him, but he denied it. "I can't be here" He whispered, "I have to go"

"Why? What were you planning by destroying a whole village?" Itachi seemed demanding to know what his own motives where, and Sasuke closed his eyes, unable to look him in the face. He moved his lips, ready for a full on quick lie, that only he could come up with. The one thing he had been properly trained to do if ever caught in such a vulnerable position. Still, when he opened his mouth, he spilled out without his consent nothing but that truth that it shocked him.

"It's my mission, I was sent here by Danzo to come and get the heart of a man named Orochimaru. He's my real target, the village was in I and Suigetsu's way" Sasuke's eyes opened wide, and he bit into his lower lip as he tried to keep himself from saying more.

"Danzo…" Itachi whispered, and the malice laced into his voice caught Sasuke's curiosity. Did Itachi know Danzo?

"Yes, Danzo" Sasuke said, firmly, and his hands came up to press themselves on Itachi's chest "and you are on my way as well" As he said it though, his fingers curl into the material. Not knowing if to push Itachi away, or pull him closer as he wished to do. But if he did, and Danzo ever found out, he was going to hurt Itachi. That was something he found he could not stand, any one else was better, but if Danzo ever dare lay a finger on his older brother, he was going to really go all out and kill him, even if it meant his own death. Suddenly, Itachi was sitting up a little straighter, straddling his waist, and pulling his hands downwards to pin them to the soft mattress both were lying on.

"Sasuke, you are going nowhere, you are mine now." Itachi reached down and ran his finger over Sasuke's soft lobe "I took it out" Sasuke's eyes widen in realization that, yes, he was free. Itachi had freed him. However, to him, that was not the point. Danzo was still alive. Danzo was still out there and looking to hurt everyone, he cared about, his family.

"You don't understand, I have brothers and sisters back at Danzo's place, I can't leave them there for my own selfish happiness," He snapped, pushing at Itachi to leave him sitting on the other side. The moment he did, he regretted it, and instantly pulled him back, embracing him. "Danzo, claimed me as his number one pet the moment mother was killed under his rule. I never liked Danzo, for tearing me away from her. He never realized that even after birth we Neonates remember the sounds we heard within the womb…our mother's voice. Despite everything, I made a promise to her, and I am going to keep it. She asked me to tell you that she was sorry, she asked that you forgive her, and she asked me to find you" now he had, he had kept his promise; there no longer was a reason for him to be here.

It took a moment for Itachi to respond as he nodded, "I forgive her" He said "And I know Danzo, he is someone I would never forgive. Stop doing as he asks, and I will help you get your brothers and sisters out" Itachi whispered into Sasuke's ear. Sasuke shook his head.

"I don't want you hurt"

"Who do you think created me, Little brother, the same man that created you" Itachi said "And I am not the only one that would want to take him down"

"Yeah!" both brothers looked to the side to see Kisame, who was gripping onto Suigetsu who seemed to be a little annoyed. "We'll take that bastard down"

"Relax man, you are crushing me" Suigetsu snapped, hitting Kisame's arm. Kisame loosened his hold on Suigetsu, apologizing for gripping him to hard. Suigetsu sighed, and just leaned back on Kisame, too attached already to move any farther away. "Are you alright Sasuke?" he asked, and Sasuke nodded, his arms tightly wrapped around Itachi's shoulders and not loosening in the slightest.

"I'm alright" he muttered, pressing his forehead to Itachi's neck "Can't say that it will stay that way once Danzo decides to investigate, he's going to want to know why he can't locate us since the chips were disabled and crushed"

"You have incredible memory…" Itachi muttered, "For someone who was in pain" Sasuke smiled into Itachi's neck, hiding it from the other's view.

"You'll be surprised, at how much I can still grasp even when in pain," Sasuke said, sighing as the smile disappeared from his lips. Right now, he was in turmoil. He wanted nothing more than to be here with Itachi and be happy, and keep feeling good and complete like this, but on the other hand. There was Danzo and his siblings to care about. "We have a problem," Sasuke whispered.

"So, what are we going to do now?" Suigetsu asked, drawing Sasuke's attention to him now. Itachi and Kisame simply watched them.

"We wait" Sasuke said, sitting straighter "Danzo is bound to send someone to search for us, and once he does, we'll know what is going on in the inside"

Suigetsu smirked "Yeah, true, and once Kimimaro has the potion done, we can really screw his own genetic makeup, the way he did with us"

"The perfect taste of his medicine…gone wrong"

"What are you two talking about?" Kisame asked. Suigetsu pulled away from him and stood to stretch.

"You don't really think Danzo has any real kind of control over us do you?" he asked, "He may think we are his, but our minds are free to think. Our brains work at full capacity compare to any other human, and even as infants we understand what he's saying. Our nine months within our host mothers, we learn language and cognitively"

Sasuke pushed a little away from Itachi, and asked, "You mentioned you were part of Danzo's plans, what happened?"

"Danzo was impatient with our development, and we did not meet up to his standards. He killed a bunch of us trying to achieve, his ultimate weapon, but nothing worked. He didn't care, he threw some of us out, and it seems he continued" Sasuke nodded. Therefore, Itachi had been part of the original plan and he was not the only one, there were more. Biting into his lower lip, he stood up despite the fact that he wanted to be near Itachi. Suigetsu walked out and Kisame followed him, while Sasuke found himself be pulled back into Itachi's arms. "Where do you think you are going?"

"Nowhere," Sasuke muttered. In Sasuke's mind, he felt betrayed and angry; here was his brother, his beautiful older brother holding him. The one that he once said that he would kill, after relaying his message, but, now how could he, when his brother made him feel whole and full of affection. Foreign emotions kept swirling inside him. A deep calm has settled over him, and he hopes that his mother is at peace, now that her children were reunited. Deep inside him, the call that kept trying to bring them together was content at the feel of their half so close. The thought of ridding Itachi of this world made his heart ache painfully against his ribcage.

Still, everything went around his head, a mass of confusion. Killing, wanting, needing, breathing, everything was so different. Everything was coming down to an end.

No matter what, Itachi will be never taken away from him.

'No, he is now yours, just as you are now his, together forever…' a voice within him was all that was whispered and once gone, the feeling of warmth had wrapped around him. Once more, he fell asleep in the safety of Itachi's arms.

"Ouch, Kisame!"

"Sorry!"

Itachi smiled as he watched Sasuke drift to sleep, and wrapped his arms more firmly around his small frame. 'When Sasuke wakes up we will meet with leader and the others... but nothing can ever tear me away from you Sasuke, nothing. You are mine'

Naruto knew that if he did not do something, nothing would ever happen.

He had called Pein and asked to join. He was only given the location of Deidara and Sasori, and as his father slept, he decided to head towards the location. He hesitated though, as he looked at the moon. Even if he could not understand, and even as the pain washed over him, he knew what he had to do, and what he wanted most.

The only one who could give him answers to his questions and his longing was Kyuubi.

For himself, and for Kyuubi, he headed out. Hoping that he would not get lost along the way, but at the same time hoping that he would find Deidara and Sasori. The sooner he can join his brothers, the step closer he will be to finding Kyuubi.

He could feel it in his bones.
