Humans like the two before him disgusted Arashi. They gave their own race a bad name and earned humans the scorn of the other races. The female wasn't the least bit attractive in any sense of the word and the male was just as bad. Besides, they more than deserved the sharp side of Arashi's tongue for their treatment of his precious brother Naruto. The silver-eyed seer had half a mind to truss them up and give them to his precious brother Gaara as a gift. The crimson-haired Jinchuuriki looked like he would need the stress relief, because there was no way Naruto and Gaara were going to be able to have any private time together in Konoha. It just wasn't safe when they were in what was practically enemy territory.
Barely keeping his chakra under his control to keep it from flaring Arashi kept his mouth shut, for now, as he tried to restrain his slowly rising temper.
"What are you doing here? Only shinobi are allowed in the training grounds." The arrogance was just dripping from Sasuke's words. Unfortunately Sakura just had to open her mouth as well.
"That's right. Only shinobi are allowed. So why are you here?" There was no denying the snideness in Sakura's screechy voice.
Arashi resisted the urge to lash out physically. He could feel Naruto, Gaara, Temari, Kankuro, and the others that had been in the Hokage's office, including his father and Tsunade, rapidly approaching. Sasuke and Sakura seemed to be ignorant of this fact. Well, if Naruto and the others wanted and expected a show then a show they would recieve.
Waiting until he could feel all of them arrive, but not reveal themselves, Arashi acted as if he were oblivious to their presences. Meanwhile Sakura and Sasuke were getting impatient at the way Arashi was disregarding them as if they posed no threat.
"Well? Why are you here? This is our training grounds." Sakura nodded in agreement as she looked at Sasuke adoringly while hanging off his arm.
Arashi looked at the pair of weaklings with eyes like mirrors, eyes that reflected what they saw and none of it flattering, before he began to speak in a tone void of emotion yet chillingly cold. The seer could feel the disgust and anger and interest of their hidden audience.
"I see not your names all over the training grounds. The only names I see are the ones engraved on Konoha's Memorial Stone behind you. Your behavior shames those who gave their lives for your village; not that either of you are all that loyal to this village."
It was easy to tell that Arashi's words had hit their mark. The words stung as they were all true and as such neither of the two on the recieving end of them could object. If either of them thought that was the last of it they were very mistaken. Arashi continued before Sasuke or Sakura could open their mouths.
"Do not try to deny the truth of the words I speak. Your ancestors must be rolling in their graves at the disgraceful behavior of the both of you. I know Itachi and Tobi were none to pleased when they found out you, Sasuke, had run off to that old pedophilic snake, the same old pedophilic snake that was part of the reason the Sandaime Hokage ordered the execution of the Uchiha Clan. After all, treasonous Clans have to be properly punished for consorting and plotting with dangerous nuke-nin to assassinate their Kage and take control of their village."
Sasuke was frozen as the meaning of those words sunk in. He wasn't the only one. It was quite difficult to hear that the Sandaime had ordered the execution of the Uchiha for treason and that they had been involved with Orochimaru. Though all that Arashi was saying made absolute sense. This Tobi person gathered quite a lot of interest too because Arashi had just implied that there was another Uchiha living.
"Itachi was the one who was given the mission of eliminating them. Afterwards he was self-exiled and resigned from being a Konoha shinobi. No hunter-nin of Konoha has ever been sent to hunt him and his nuke-nin status is just an extra security measure to make sure he was left alone. It does figure that you would run straight to the sick fuck that your loving family was going to sell you to. Orochimaru likes little boys. He likes them young and pretty and practically helpless and completely in his control. I bet he liked playing 'hide the white snake' with you rather often didn't he? There were reasons he made sure you could lengthen your tongue, flexible beyond measure, and able to swallow a sword. He does nothing without it benefiting him."
Arashi stopped for a moment as he took in the reactions of everyone around him. Sasuke looked positively sick and very upset, just as he should be. The spoiled little bastard had bent over, repeatedly, for the one who had led his family down a dark path then left them to rot so that he could get his hands, and other things, on and in Sasuke. Sakura looked as if she didn't believe a word coming out of the silver-eyed seer's mouth. Her Sasuke would never let that happen to him, he was far too strong, and never would he sleep with another male; he was in love with her after all. The hidden audience was rather mixed in their reactions. There was amusement and disgust coming from Naruto, Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari, though they weren't the only ones feeling that. Horror, anger, and even hate were in the air as well. Arashi's acidic comments didn't end there however.
"Rather ironic don't you think? You wanted power to kill your innocent brother and went to get that power, betraying the village that accepted you unconditionally, from the very person who ruined your life. Though I suppose with your Clan being so willing to give you away and betray you, your actions are not all that surprising. Blood does tell more often than not. They didn't really need you did they? After all, you were just the talentless second-born son who could in no way compare to Itachi's brilliance, his skill, or his power. Itachi was an ANBU Captain at the same age you became a genin. And they touted that you were a genius. This village is full of delusional and prejudice fools."
"You-" Sasuke was interrupted before he could start.
"I wasn't finished speaking. You are a spoiled, arrogant little weakling that doesn't deserve a quarter of the respect you get. The pink-haired banshee bitch hanging all over you isn't any better. Power is earned not given just as respect is earned and not given. You two disgust me on far too many levels to even think about. Whoring yourselves," Arashi looked Sakura straight in the eyes as he said this, " Oh yes, whoring yourselves for what you want. Sasuke for the promise of power. And stupid little Sakura for money and favors. How many times have you fucked your father to get him to keep his mouth shut so that your prim and prissy mother doesn't find out that you've spread your legs for anyone willing? You aren't all that skilled and still a genin so you have to get money somewhere because your so pitiful. There is nothing wrong with being a professional whore but you two shame their profession. You don't fuck your father for money and favors and you don't fuck the bastard who is partly responsible for your Clans execution. You're both disgraces."
Disgust became a more prominent emotion experienced by the hidden audience as Arashi aired some of Sasuke and Sakura's dirty laundry. Arashi really had nothing against whores or those who indulged in incest, in the shinobi world all kinks were acceptable as long as all parties involved consented, but whoring yourself like Sasuke and Sakura had was just wrong on too many levels and totally unacceptable to the moonlight-haired Jinchuuriki.
"Traitors are just as bad and both of you are traitors. Of course, you probably never told anyone that you offered to leave with the spoiled little bastard when he left did you banshee bitch? Neither of you will go unpunished for all the crimes you have committed."
"Who the hell do you think you are?" Shannaro!
Arashi stood up so that he was not at any sort of disadvantage. "I am the Sansai of Sunagakure no Sato. I am Sabaku no Arashi, brother of Sabaku no Naruto, who is the husband of Sabaku no Gaara, the Kazekage of Suna."
The look of irrational rage that overtook Sasuke's face and the look of jealous anger on Sakura's face was rather comical to see. Naruto was married and to the Kazekage of Suna, meaning he was far above both of them in both social status and shinobi rank. The Sabaku Clan was becoming quite known, respected, and feared throughout the Elemental Countries.
Naruto was a little apprehesive about what was going to happen. On one hand he did want to see Sasuke and Sakura beat down and punished; on the other hand he really had no desire to see Arashi angry. In the end he decided to let Arashi do what he wanted when the two imbeciles before him dared to try to attack him. It would show the others hidden with them just why Arashi had earned the fierce reputation he had, even if they didn't find out why he was called the Sansai. It would be much better for them to learn first hand why it would be better for them to avoid provoking Arashi's ire. His silver-eyed brother could be quite vindictive when he wanted to be.
So it was really no surprise when Sasuke raised his fist and began to move forward as if to punch Arashi. What was a surprise for most was when Arashi disappeared into thin air. Again. Only to reappear poised in mid-air before landing a devasting, bone-shattering kick to Sasuke's jaw. The Uchiha hurtled through the air and through one of the trees in the training grounds before coming to a skidding halt unconcious. Landing on his feet Arashi looked at the result of his kick. If one didn't know any better one would think Tsunade had done this. Arashi was very strong and very fast. All the members of Clan Sabaku could attest to that, but Arashi had never hit any of them with the same force he had just hit Sasuke with; none of them had ever done anything to deserve such treatment, Sasuke had.
"You all might as well come out. The pink-haired whoring bitch seems to be too busy trying to tend to her little Sasu-chan while molesting him to pay much attention to her surroundings." At this everyone left their hiding spots to gather around Arashi.
Placing Arashi between them Gaara and Naruto protected their brother. The silver-eyed seer still looked a little off in their eyes. His meditation had likely been interrupted to early for it to do as much good as he wanted it to. The two of them would definitely need to get Arashi back to their hotel for some rest, sleep preferably. Their white-haired brother need some restful sleep and they would guard his sleep.
/Ara-kun you need sleep./
~I know Naruto. My meditation was cut short.~
(Naruto and I will guard you brother.)
~Thank you Gaara. You as well Naruto. Did you like the show?~
Amusement filled the mind link they were sharing. They had liked watching those two be put in their places. The things Arashi had said though made both Naruto and Gaara very glad that they weren't on the recieving end of Arashi's ire or his sharp tongue.
Seeing how exhausted Arashi really was, though only Gaara and himself could really tell, Naruto told his friends that he and his Clan would meet up with them later. All of them had had a long journey and would all like to go to their hotel to rest up. Tsunade seeing the sense in Naruto's logic had Shizune escort them back to their hotel. Seeing that Naruto would see them all later the rest of the group dispersed as the entertainment was over. All of them made mental notes not to piss off Arashi, who was really protective of his precious people. Because you would have to foolish and blind not to see that the silver-eyed Sennin's verbal attack was caused by him being upset over Sasuke and Sakura's treatment of Naruto before and after they became genin in Cell Seven. Revenge was a dish best served cold, in this case it had a side of acidic salt to be rubbed in the wounds.
