Criminal | A Modern Day Narusasu

{ Chapter 27 }

A week had passed since Naruto was taken away, and Sasuke still hadn't put anything together. He was a stressed out wreck, and when he found out they put a death sentence on Naruto, it didn't help. The day after tomorrow was the day of execution, and Sasuke didn't know what to do. He had no evidence that Naruto was innocent. How was he to save the blond?

Knock Knock

Sasuke turned his head towards the door. He had gotten plenty of visits from family and friends, all wondering why he was still in even though Naruto was arrested. He had told all of them that he wanted a one month break as to not bring suspicions. Ugh, another one? I'm too tired to deal with human interaction...

Sasuke sighed as he got up. He walked from the kitchen to the front door and opened it without hesitation. He wanted to get it over with already.

"Hey there Uchiha." Sasuke was surprised to see Shikamaru in front of him. Why was he here?

"Shikamaru? What are you doing here? I mean, I'm sure you ought to know that Naruto's in prison already. Wait, aren't you supposed to be in jail as well?"

"Yeah, but I heard you were trying to get him out, so I decided I should tell you some stuff, you know, help out. And yeah, but come on. They won't find me."

"Ah, sure okay. And what do you mean by.. stuff?"

"Just let me in."

Sasuke sighed.

"Fine.." Sasuke moved out the way, making way for the pineapple-headed male. He entered the house, and the moment Sasuke closed the door, he started talking.

"So Naruto isn't really part of the Akatsuki, neither am I, he didn't kill part of his town, that was the Akatsuki. We're only saying/pretending to be a part of it so they could hunt him down for impersonating as one of them and he could kill them for killing his parents. Me, I'm just helping him because we're really good friends and he wouldn't survive without me since he's hella dumb and yeah, that's what came out, top of my head, any questions?" Sasuke's brain was too busy configuring a plan to speak. He was trying to put everything he knew together.

"SHIKAMARU!" He almost jumped at Sasuke's sudden reaction.

"Um, yes??"

"You said Naruto needed your brains to survive right?"

"Uh, yeah..?"

"Then you must be smart!"

"Uh sure."

"Awesome.. Now help me get my blond out of prison!" Sasuke grabbed Shikamaru's wrist and led him to the table where all his papers and notes where.

"Are you sure we reallyyy want Naruto out..?"

Sasuke glared at Shikamaru, signifying that he should shut up. "Ah.. guess we do.." Shika cleared his throat.

"Alright let's see what you got..."
