Chapter 7 Leaves of Insanity

-Training Ground-

Ryuu perched himself twenty meters above ground, foliage obstructing his small form from view he hated hiding, only wanting to be down below fighting this Neji character alongside his master. So what they were sparring, wanting nothing more than to prove his worth as a strong, and proper summon. A promised is a promise and he gave his word to Naruto-sama.

“Vast improvement my friend since our last spar over two years ago.” He evaded another kick, somersaulting backward, landing thirty feet before the blonde shinobi.

“Good move Neji,” he blurred from sight before the dark haired Hyuuga registered a kunai tip rested against his Adams Apple. “Move faster next time my friend.”

“I will be sure to remember that, Naruto.”

“I won, you know what that means.”

“It means a weeks worth of mission pay.”

“You know me so well, Neji.”

“Too well.”

“You win, your favorite food, my treat.”

Naruto sent out a pulse, alerting Ryuu to follow. As he and Neji departed the training ground headed for Ichiraku Ramen stand.

“Naruto, there is an important matter needing discussion.”


-Forest of Death-


He winced from his pounding head, throat parched, muscles cramped as he mentally counted two hundred ways of tormenting the blonde shinobi.

Attempting to move his hands until he realized they were bound, above his head anchored to the ceiling while floor reinforced bonds anchored impeded lower body movement. At least he was dressed in standard issue black jonin pants, no shirt, no sandals, no vest it was better than being in the middle of Whereverville nude.

Noting movement to his left, Itachi shifted focus out the corner of his eye, firing his captor a sideways glare. Even chained, chakra drained they shivered in fear.

“So, you are awake, Uchiha-sama.” Stepping from the shadows, five feet facing the Raven stood his warden, a very amused shinobi. A strange twinkle of madness revealed in his eye indicating the other had taken a vacation from sanity, or lost altogether. His stomach stirred in discomfort that something was definitely off about the situation.

“(Silence)” His answer was a glare; his face remained aloof, training his eyes on the blonde before him.

“Silent, same as Sasuke. Funny, your glare emits more fire, more passion; where as the younger Uchiha’s glare is colder. I wonder, are you more passionate Itachi-san? I can call you by your name since we are more familiar. Think about it: I abducted you, seen you naked, that count as intimate, close even.”

‘Definite Looney Bend material.’

“Naruto-kun it was my understanding such behavior remained buried, leaving behind a serious shinobi, not a bratty prankster. I am in no mood to humor or impart comic relief.”

There was silence as each man sized-up the other, determining levels of threat before hysterical cackling broke the tense quiet.

“Quite the serious one are we? I shared a love hate relationship with myself for Team 7. He was always in the way one form or another, never allowing me to have time alone, getting to know my hearts desire, and He was there taking all the attention from my love’s focus. The love of my life should have eyes for only me.”

‘Obsessive with a touch of insanity.’

“This is a little extreme even for you, Naruto-kun, Poison, abduction, chakra restraints in the middle of no-where……if you want to talk I will listen.”

“Uchiha, Uchiha, Uchiha,” was whispered lustfully. “Too late. Time for a modest dose of honesty, you are an attractive man, very attractive indeed. However, my heart belongs to only one. You find me attractive, Itachi-san, hmm. If so, I am willing to offer a more physical relationship….brief, but a relationship no-the-less. Interesting, sex is a bond I never experienced before, not even masturbation. That person shall be my first, Uchiha-sama.”

‘So, he is curious or does he find the same sex appealing.’

“You are very attractive as well, Naruto-kun.”

His captor drew back their right hand, bringing a chair forward, seating himself casually; face a foot away from his captives’ crotch.

“Being a Missing-Nin for many years, more than compensated for experiences on, and off the battlefield.” Caressing the sensitive flesh using his palm causing the Uchiha to moan, “You like that, mmm, it’s swelling from my contact or maybe more. Dare I say you have deep affections for the Threat of Konoha?”

‘Two and half years of celibacy is a bitch.’

“I think (unclasp) a reward (un-zip) for good behavior (pull-down) is deserved. Such a sensuous appendage, look at the emission fluid beading from your slit, and the size, impressive. Enjoying my touch, Itachi-san?” Stroking languidly, form base to tip, thumb grazing the slit, up and down repeat. The Raven quaked.

‘His palm is smooth as silk.’

“Under my ministrations I have the power to make you cum, and the power to prolong culmination. Look at you, you are shimmering from sweat, I guess it is hot, ne.” Ghosting his breath across the sensitive tip, Itachi released an audible groan, “Close, almost there one more firm stroke will release a thick load of swimmers.”

‘Kuso, I can not hold back, it feels so good, and it’s been too long.’

Gracing the organ with a firm stroke, forcing the Ravens essence to shoot in streams onto the floor grazing his captors’ cheek. He continued stroking until the others member laid flaccid touching the detainees’ thigh.

“I let the shot on my cheek slide, but next time punishment will be a dish served cold.” Rising from his seat the blonde moved into the shadows, he returned cleaning his face with a damp cloth, than removing all traces along the flooring.

‘Keep your head Itachi.’

“You have a preference for the same sex? Were you afraid I would abandon you or maybe demean your abilities as a shinobi. You are powerful, Naruto-kun, and your preference for the forbidden does not lesson your value. I struggled with my sexuality as a teen, but you were correct in your statement…..being a Missing-Nin allowed me to explore “sexual preferences” more openly, I discovered a penchant for males over females. There is no judge here Naruto-kun.”

‘A little intense, but, I can forgive him, understanding how difficult revealing your sexual predilection can be. He had it hard enough being considered a “Demon” and announcing he is homosexual on top of it, yeah I forgive him.’

“You Uchiha’s. What is with your Clan’s call for power and male sex? If power is not enough your need to dominate another man. Disgusting, or you run off to be dominated by a pedophiliac. Che, I often wonder who really is the Dobe. Not me, that’s for certain.”

‘Fucking brat to hell with forgiveness. I am going to beat him within an inch of his life.’

“Naruto-kun, once this is over I am going to pummel you into the ground, wiping that shit-eating grin from your face. This I promise.”

“I am afraid that will not be allowed Itachi-san, besides, what would my love think if I were not truthful. Forgive my deceit.”

‘Odd’

“Kai”

‘Kuso’

“No hard feelings, ne.”

‘No hard feeling my ass.’


-Ichiraku’s-


Hand resting atop his full stomach, Naruto sat content waiting for his dinner partner to continue explaining his observation concerning one of their comrades.

“Hinata noticed it first, we chalked it up to worrying over Sasuke, but now I am not sure previous thoughts are correct. In fact from Hinata’s perspective they are indeed incorrect.”

“What are you saying, Neji.” Resisting the urge to shake the other male into forgoing long explanations he refrained. If there was one thing he learned from Ero-sennin and the Raven patience pays-off, in abundance.

“She seems desperate and anxious as of late. Her training regime leaves no room for anything beyond sleeping, eating, missions, and studying. She has completely shut herself off from friends; even her parents and the village, Naruto.”

“That’s not like her at all, and her parents that I can believe since she never got along with her mother too well, not much to say for her father, but the village and her friends, impossible.” Running a hand through golden locks, “I will speak with Tsunade-obaa-chan maybe she has her on a tight regime.”

“Could be, but that does not dismiss other disturbing matters.” The other threw Neji a ‘what the hell does that mean’ look. “Let’s just say her obsession is bordering insanity. This is something you have to see with your own eyes. However, my ability allows me to breech solid objects, I am not sure how you will go about snooping without detection.”

“I am a Ninja, Neji, stealth and concealment preclude me from whatever thoughts you may have extending from my days of youth. Kami was that a Lee influence induced speech.”

“No my friend, the powers of youth speech has not infected your cognitive functions.”

“Good, now about this ‘Obessesion’ is it that serious.”

“You have no idea. A closet in her room there is a secret compartment large enough for a small child. Be careful.” He gave his comrade and friend’s shoulder a reassuring squeeze.

“Arigato Neji, let’s meet-up two days from now at dawn.”

“Until two days, at dawn.” Paying the dark haired shinobi departed the Ramen stand.

“Sakura-chan”


-Forest of Death-


‘What the fuck!’

“You see I have a plan with you here Sauke-kun will return to Konoha, since you are the reason he left. Then my love and I can be happy.”

“That would never work, he will not believe you.” ‘He thinks I am dead already.’

“It will work by sending something of yours distinguishing between false and reliable proof.”

“What pray-tell would that be?”

“Your Akatsuki cloak of course.”

“It’s at the main house.”

“No, I have it here.”

“How proactive of you.”

“Arigato, I bear no grudge against you Itachi-san, but it appears you may get in my way, so please understand staying here in this cabin is the best alternative. My love is all that matters. I have trained day and night for him, and I believe he will be proud. He loved me before of that I am sure, but will even more knowing I can fight by his side. No longer that weak little Genin girl.”

“I am sure Sasuke will be happy to have a strong wife, who will bear strong Uchiha children.” ‘Increasing insanity within the gene pool by 100.’

“What does Sasuke-kun have to do with this?”

“You were pinning for my otouto for many years, her is your opportunity to prove a worthy Uchiha bride.” ‘Thank Kami I bat for the other team.’

“No, Itachi-san my love is Naruto-kun.”

‘Fuck’

“So, I must get him away from all Uchiha’s seem to want to take my love away from me, first Sasuke-kun, Uchiha Madara, and now you want him too. You and Sasuke will eliminate each-other, if not there are other alternatives. As for Madara I leave him to Kakashi-sensei. Once you and your brother a no longer in the world of the living, Naruto-kun and I will live happily-ever-after.”

‘I am afraid for the first time in my life.’
