Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Void ❯ Hallow ( Chapter 1 )

Summary: Itachi was that void. Like a black hole he sucked in all the Naruto and Sasuke once had; the relationship they worked so hard to build!

A/N– Okay, I was sure that I made this clear, but I guess not. This is an AU fic. It is not based on the canon(anime/manga) time line because I needed to change some things(such as Sasuke's age) so everything fit right. And thus I made this an AU fic. I'm sorry if some of you don't like that, but that's the way I have it planned out, already. That's all for now, please enjoy the second chapter of Void. (responds to reviews at bottom).
Chapter 1: Hallow

Naruto stared off into space for a few moments. Itachi would be here very soon. Somehow the Bastard was able to drive above the speed limit and never get pulled over by a cop! Lucky bastard!

Sasuke put his phone back on the counter, and rushed out the kitchen. He needed to get his clothes from in the wash, and be out of Naruto's house before Itachi got there.

His big brother wasn't above beating Naruto, too. To him, Naruto was just another thing in his way to dominating Sasuke's life. And Sasuke refused to let Naruto be punished for no reason what so ever!

"Sasuke...?"Naruto sounded worried, but Sasuke knew he had to go.

"I need to leave. Itachi would be here in no time."

"What?! Why?! Leaving here is only going to make him hunt you down. At least when you're here with me, I could take some of the hits for you!"

Naruto obviously didn't know that he wasn't making Sasuke feel better. If Naruto took his beatings for him, then Sasuke only felt guiltier for getting Naruto involved to begin with.

"Take some of the hits?! Can't you see that is what I don't want to happen? It's better if I go now..."

"Sasuke," Naruto could feel where this was going to get all mushy and lovey-dovey. "I love you, and if that means taking a few little hits here and there, to be with you, then I will."

Sasuke could feel his stomach turn upside-down. "You shouldn't have to get beaten to be with me. Love doesn't have to work that way! It shouldn’t work that way!"

'I love you' wasn't something Sasuke said, though he implied it in many of the things he did and said.

Naruto could have cried.

Sasuke loved him.

Approaching Sasuke, the blond teen wrapped his arms around the raven-haired boy's shoulders. Sasuke was putting on his own pants, and setting Naruto's on top of the washer.

"Sasuke...I'm not leaving. And neither are you."

Sasuke stiffened. Naruto felt it, but just hugged him tighter. "Itachi will hurt you."

"I don't care."

"He'll beat and bruise you." Like he does me...

"Don't care"

"He'll probably rape you." He does that to me...

"...He'd have one helluva fight to deal with first."

Sasuke was still tense, but Naruto didn't care. He didn't plan to let his love go now, nor when Itachi came. They both deserved to be together, but Itachi just couldn't accept that. Naruto decided then, that he wouldn't let Sasuke go, not for Itachi, or any other sadistic bastard.

There was a knock at the door.

Sasuke flinched.

"I'll get it. It can't be Itachi, no matter how fast he drives he couldn't have gotten here that fast."

Sasuke pulled out of Naruto grasp, and slipped on his shirt. He slowly made his way toward the door. He was almost positive that it wasn't Itachi at the door. When his big brother was upset, he would take his anger out on everything, including a door.

But the person who had just knocked on the door, had a moderately normal knock. Not too hard, but not lightly either.

Sasuke looked out the peep hole on the door. It wasn't Itachi that he saw, but Kisame. The bastard. Kisame was sent to make sure they didn't leave, no doubt. The shark-man seemed to be everywhere Sasuke was...not all that surprising since Itachi kept tabs on Sasuke's whereabouts 24/7.

Sasuke wasn't stupid. If he had opened the door, Kisame would have probably chained them to the nearest wall, making sure they didn't leave. Kisame's eyes shot up toward the peep hole, and he grinned at Sasuke.

"Look at what I found. " he said in an amused voice.

Sasuke stepped away from the door.

Kisame wasn't alone. That couldn't be good.

"Naruto?" Sasuke whispered.

The blond hadn't moved from beside the washer, where he left him

"Yea?" As loud as always.

"We'll go out back. Itachi has his friends out there. If we don't hurry, they'll tear this place apart."

"Tear it apart?"

Sasuke nodded as he grabbed his cell phone and keys. He crept over to the door and grabbed the two pairs of shoes; his and Naruto's.

"Hurry and put them on."

Naruto nodded and quickly put his shoes on.

"Come out, come out where ever you are!" Someone's voice called through the door.

Then there was a loud 'bang', as someone, presumably Kisame, had hit the door.

"Sasuke! We can't go out the back! We're on the second floor!" Naruto yelled, making sure Sasuke could hear him over the racket Kisame and company was making.

"There should be a fire-escape. All apartment buildings should have them. Go out the back window!"

Naruto did as he was told. Sasuke was right on his tail, nearly pushing him through the window. They heard the front door crash down and Sasori's annoyed sigh.

Naruto nearly fell down the first flight of stairs, but Sasuke caught him. They had to move quickly.

Kisame and the others moved quite fast, especially if Itachi asked them to keep Sasuke and Naruto in place. The three of them acted like Itachi's dogs! They would obey his every command. Hell, if he told them to sit, they would probably kill themselves trying to sit fast enough to please Itachi.

Sasuke could hear them coming toward the window, but Naruto and he were already near the bottom. He took a chance, and glanced up. Kisame had stuck his head out the window, then went back inside. A second later, the whole window, frame and all, shattered as Kisame used Samehada as a bat to completely obliterate it.

Glass shards fell around them, and they could feel the fire escape shake as Kisame and the others hopped out of the hole in the wall (where the window used to be) and onto the fire escape.

Itachi's three lackeys didn't bother to run down each step, they just jumped the steps. Sasuke noticed that they were gaining on them, fast.

"Move faster, Naruto." But as they reached the ground, Naruto stopped, abruptly.

"Sasuke..." The blond murmured.

The raven-haired teen growled lowly as he crashed into the back of Naruto, barely managing not to fall.

"Wha-" Sasuke didn't finish his question.

Right before his eyes, stood the last person he wanted to see.

Itachi.

Naruto and Sasuke were in the alley behind Naruto's apartment, but the parking lot, where Itachi had parked his car, was located on the side of the building. Meaning, as Itachi exited his car, he spotted Naruto and his dear brother running from Deidara, Kisame, and Sasori.

There was a series of 'thuds' behind them, Sasuke noted. He quickly shot a glance over his shoulder only to see, that the three that were chasing them, had just landed on the ground.

They were trapped.

Itachi in front of them, and Kisame, Sasori, and Deidara was behind them. Walls blocked the left and right. He had to at least get Naruto out of here.

Sasuke took a step in front of Naruto. He wouldn't let Itachi hurt his lover. No, he'd rather take the pain. Itachi would dish it out to him anyway.

"Sasuke..." Itachi smirked.

It was a barely noticeable smirk, but Sasuke knew when his brother smirked.

Itachi never smirked unless something pleased him...

But what pleased Itachi, was never good for Sasuke...

"Let's go home...I have something fun planned for you...." Itachi said, Sasuke heard the underlining threat.

And he was sure Naruto heard it, too. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have spoken up.

"Sasuke's staying here! I won't let you hurt him again!"

They could hear Kisame's arrogant snort, and Sasori's impatient sigh, not to mention Deidara's squeal of joy...evil bitches...that's what they were...

Itachi's quirked lips became a straight line. He was no longer smirking just a bit, but frowniing completely. That wasn't a good sign, but was anything Itachi did, a good sign?

"Come here, Sasuke." Itachi ordered.

Sasuke didn't move.

"You see what happens, Sasuke? Why I don't allow you such company? Being around such people causes you to disobey me..."

Sasuke still didn't move. He knew he couldn't take on Itachi, and probably none of the other three, either. But he wouldn't let Naruto go through this alone!

And Itachi realized that; realized that his Sasuke wasn't going to leave the little, blond boy's side.

Itachi's facial expression went completely blank. He was utterly unreadable, but his eyes said everything that was needed to know.

Sasuke knew what they said.

If only Naruto knew of the promises those eyes proposed...

Red eyes of the devil stared intently at him, then in one, swift motion, Itachi vanished from sight, only to reappear behind Sasuke a second later.

He roughly placed a hand on his 'dear otouto's' shoulder, and pulled Sasuke flush against him; back against chest.

Naruto growled out something, and went to make a move, but Sasuke noticed, to his displeasure, that Kisame was no longer in the background with Sasori and Deidara. He was coming up behind Naruto, with one of the most wretched grins on his blue face.

Sasuke went numb, and only tried to make a move when he noticed Naruto was completely oblivious to the danger lurking up to him.

When Sasuke jerked forward to pull out of Itachi's grasp, his elder brother pulled him back. Closer to his chest. Itachi, digging through his red and black cloak, leaned down to whisper in Sasuke's ear.

"Look at the present I bought. It was specially crafted and engraved, just for you..." As he said that, he pulled out a golden collar from his cloak.

He snapped it onto Sasuke's neck, causing Naruto to freeze in his steps. The blond teen went completely still. He had never seen Itachi do... what he did to Sasuke. He'd only seen the aftermath of Itachi's treatment of his lover.

Growling, he tried to step forward, only to have a large sword block his way. It was Itachi's blue freak of a friend, and his big-ass sword!

"Wrong way, small fry" he grinned, "You, go that way" he pointed towards a car in the parking lot.

The car was black, with dark-tented windows. It wasn't a car one wanted to get in with people like Kisame, Deidara, or Sasori...It just wasn't something common sense would recommend!

Sasuke could still see Naruto, though Kisame's Samehada blocked Naruto's view of him. He noticed the look of anger on his love's face, then fear, for only a moment, then, defiance came forth.

Itachi tightened the collar just a bit, it obviously had an adjustable latch, and that's when Sasuke's mind snapped back to reality.

Sasuke couldn't see what was engraved in the collar, but whatever it said was degrading enough to make Naruto even more upset.

Naruto, still defying Kisame was yelling and trying to get around the shark-man. Obviously Itachi had ordered that Naruto not be hurt, because no one was bleeding yet.

"Let him go, aniki. He has nothing to do with you." Sasuke tried to sound unaffected by the situation at hand.

Itachi didn't say anything for a while, then said: "But he wants to be with you so bad, Sasuke. How could I deny that?"

Sasuke, still being embraced in an unwanted hug by his brother, finally realized what was happening. "No...Itachi! You wouldn't!"

Itachi smirked, noticing Deidara had knocked Naruto out, then he looked down at his younger brother.

Sasuke went rigid when he noticed Naruto had been knocked unconscious. No...this couldn't happen...not now...not when he and Naruto had finally...finally been happy together!

Kisame threw Naruto over his shoulder and headed toward the black car, he, Sasori, and Deidara would be riding in.

Sasuke felt sick.

"Remember Otouto...you asked for this." Itachi said, yanking Sasuke's collar, pulling him toward his car.

They left Sasuke's car in the lot.
