Foul Love (Sasuke x OC)

37

The Anbu headquarters seem empty, and I can't help but wonder what's going on. It's entirely dark, and I can't find any light switch anywhere. It was hard enough to even find this place, now this? No chakra signatures can be spotted, but I know that the Anbu are the best so that's not surprising.

Suddenly I sense someone coming at me with some sort of weapon. They go to grab me but instead I take their arm and flip them, taking my sai out and holding it to their necks. Different lanterns light up around me and illuminate the room. I see who I'm holding down, the one and only Ibiki Morino.

"You've grown up kid," he says with a chuckle.

I get off of him and put my sai back in it's holster, "You have too old man."

"Damn kid, go easy on me," he complains while getting up. He gives my hair a quick ruffle, "Welcome to the Anbu. You'll be training with us twice a week, but Tsunade already told me about your mission."

"Yes sir," I answer.

"Alright, let's get your tattoo and a mask," he says and puts his arm on my back, leading me into another room.

Once we enter the new room, I see two other people who I assume are Anbu members. They laugh together and then lay their eyes on me. One of them has blonde hair and blue eyes, while the other has dark black hair and green eyes. They're both very attractive.

"Hey what can I do for you today Ibiki?" says the one with blonde hair.

"Hi Keru, this is Madi. She needs a new tattoo today," Ibiki informs them.

The one called Keru then motions me over towards a seat and I lay down in it. "How ya doing sweetheart?"

"I'm pretty good, what about you?" I ask, but try to sound casual.

The one with black hair finishes a talk with Ibiki, and then comes to sit next to his friend. "Hey Madi, welcome to the Anbu. I'm Sero, and I see you've met Keru," he introduces.

I give him a close eyed smile, "Nice to meet you."

Sero returns the smile and I see he has two dimples across from each other when he smiles. It's a very nice smile, and he's definitely cute.

"Where are you gonna get your tattoo sweetheart?" asks Keru.

For a second I think about it, but then decide to get it on my left shoulder. Keru nods and gets some red ink prepared.

"So what're you doing later Madi?" asks Sero.

It's obvious he wants to do something, and I want to do something to distract myself. "Nothing," I respond.

"Alright then, you're coming to the party tonight with me," Sero demands. He gives me the details and apparently it's just a rendezvous with a lot of people in the forest of death.

"Alright, I'll see you then," I tell him and then he leaves the room with a smile.

Keru finishes the tattoo and admires his work. He mumbles something about Sero always getting the girls and cleans up his station. I get up to look at the tattoo and I realize that I'm finally a Jonin. An Anbu, for that matter. I hated myself for it. I'm just another part in this corrupt society...

Ibiki comes back in and we enter a hallway that eventually leads us into a large room. On every wall there's an array of different masks, and Ibiki tells me to choose one. I grab one that has red stripes and resembles a cat.

"Well, congratulations Madevila. You're officially one of us," Ibiki says. I give him a nod and exit headquarters.

On the way home Setami comes to mind, she never got to see me make it this far. She would be so happy for me, and would take me out for ramen, but she can't. She can't because she's dead and no amount of pain or sorrow will bring her back. Setami was just one more to fall victim to the Shinobi society.
