Groaning softly Sasuke stared at the ceiling, every muscle and every bone in his body ached. 'Please just let me die.' Sasuke thought, as he recalled the past week's events of being tortured for information on the Demon Nine. Which he knew none, so there was nothing to tell, just Naruto and Gaara's names, was all. Neji had been given much the same treatment, they had him strapped to a table, naked,(1) and had left him there. Sasuke assumed they had just forgotten him considering they didn't feed him either."What a horrible way to die." Sasuke said softly to himself, letting his head roll to the side. His voice had gotten raspy from all the screaming and hardly any water."Sasuke?" A voice said in astonishment, Sasuke didn't care to look and see who though. Right now the only thing on his mind was death, yes death sounded really nice. "Oh dear gods, is that you Sasuke?" the person asked again, from the sounds of footsteps Sasuke assumed the person was coming closer. He didn't care though, nothing mattered at the moment, his eyes wouldn't open even if he wanted them to.A soft hand gently cupped the dirtied cheek of the slim geisha. "Just kill me please." Sasuke pleaded softly, letting out a small whimper at the aching in his body. He briefly registered the sound of being unlatched from the table, then the feeling of two strong arms hoisting his naked body from the table. Carrying him to only the gods knew where.Just moments later, his body was lowered into warm water making Sasuke scream as his muscles were forced to relax. His aches and pains were momentarily ceased and were replaced by immense heat that laced through his body. "I would never kill you my sweet otouto." Sasuke heard the whispered response and instantly knew who was dragging the washcloth across his dirty skin making it clean once again. "What have they done to you?" came Itachi's whispered awe, as lots of little cuts all over the slim frame, were unmasked by the washed away dirt."I'm so tired, but Neji he's hurt also." Sasuke replied a bit incoherently."It's alright, I will take care of everything sweet otouto. You just rest for now." Itachi said, Sasuke made no protest after that. Instead he just fell into a deep slumber.
Gaara & NarutoNaruto bit his thumb nervously, Sasuke and Neji had been gone a week. 'Please let them be safe.' Naruto thought desperately, even the ever so cold Gaara was worried for the lovely long-haired geisha."You don't think they were caught do you?" Gaara asked, his insomnia which had ebbed a bit with Neji around had come back as bad as ever. Worse even, as he was for the first time ever, the first to voice his worry over anything or anyone."I don't know Tanuki-kun. I really don't." Naruto replied sadly, feeling horrible for ever letting the two go on that stupid task of freeing Gaara. He would've saved the red-head, but at an opportune moment. Naruto sighed picking up the dagger he had given Sasuke right before he had left."I swear to you Kitsune-kun if anything has happened to Neji I wi--" Gaara growled being cut off by the fierce glare he received from the blond."You'll do what exactly?! I didn't send them to get you, they were leaving with or without my permission! Plus--" Naruto said feral voice, his feature's softening a bit as though he was ready to cry. "--plus Sasuke was with him. I think I might die if anything happened to him." Naruto said sullenly, feeling completely and utterly weak in this situation."Well we have to get them out, can't be too hard. They got to me right?" Gaara said hopefully, Naruto was a little taken a back by this since his friend was acting so odd in Naruto's opinion."Yeah but they also got caught in the process, or at least we think they got caught." Naruto replied, realizing it seemed as if him and Gaara had somehow switched personalities.
Itachi & NejiItachi sighed laying Neji next to Sasuke on a large futon on the floor, both boys were washed, bandaged, and now dressed. No one questioned him ever, he was one of the great Uchiha's. If Itachi said he was taking both boys to be killed, then to anyone, both boys were as good as dead.No, he wouldn't succumb to killing his little brother though, but they would have to leave Kyoto. Leave forever, and never become geisha again. Itachi looked over at the long-haired boy, Sasuke wanted that boy alive so he was here now, they had a great bond. A bond, Itachi was afraid, that he and his otouto would never have. All thanks to horrid lies told by both of their parents.If those people were both still alive, he was sure he would've brutally murdered them for spreading such lies. For telling him for years that his little brother was dead, for creating a fake grave to commemorate the death of someone who never died in the first place. Standing Itachi glanced at his little brother, and the long-haired boy called, Neji.Shaking his head Itachi makes a fire watching the boys as they slept peacefully. Tomorrow, if they could even walk, they would head out of Kyoto, away from their lives as geisha. Itachi would finally, permanently leave behind being a samurai.
