When the Book Ends ~ NaruSasu

XIV. The Interrogation

Naruto walks out the door, once finally clothed. While he's away for a moment, I get myself dressed. As I wait though, my mind wanders off.

And suddenly my heart began thumping, as if something bad would happen...

3rd person pov

Naruto sighs. "Nobody was supposed to know I was here. Who are you?" The man on the opposite side of the door looks stern and is dressed formally. "Sir, you have to follow us. You need to be asked some questions." The man said loudly. Sasuke, who was hiding in the bedroom, could hear them as they spoke.

"I don't know you, why would I follow you? What do you want with me?" Naruto began to feel annoyed, at least more annoyed than he was before. His hip rested against the door frame. "I'm not going to just follow some stranger I don't know, ya know..."

The man just shook his head before 2 other guys quickly cornered Naruto. "Hey! What the hell?!" Naruto struggled as the men, all of which dressed formally, their faces not identifiable, grabbed Naruto by the arms.

"You haven't been compliant," the man which spoke in the first place said. "So we have no choice but to restrain you."

"Hey, you got anyone else here?" Another man spoke just as sternly as the first one. "Sir, you know, we can talk all this out. I don't know what's happening, so..!"

"We don't have time for this... let's just take him to an interrogation room." One man said. It seemed Naruto was mixing up all the men.

Sasuke peeked down before the men slammed the front door shut. All he could think was, who are those strange men? And what are they doing with Naruto? Though those questions couldn't be answered. Not yet at least. Sasuke managed to bring his courage to go to the front window and see outside if there was anybody. He was illegally here, after all.

But, Naruto said this place was meant to be a kind of hideout... nobody could find it. What a load of shit, because the wrong people found it.

Before Sasuke could think of anything else, he kept on a one track mind — find his love.

...

"Officer, I didn't do anything!" That's all Naruto could yell, it seems. "We know that Uchiha Sasuke is at your hidden residence." That's what the officer said. This guy was different — he was dressed in a simple cop uniform, not formal clothing. He still kept his face hidden.

"Uchiha Sasuke?..." Naruto wondered how the hell the police would find out about that. The only person who would know about Sasuke's whereabouts...

"I need you to tell me why you would bring an outcasxt in. You should know that it is highly illegal to bring such a rogue," the officer snickered. "It's disappointing to hear such from our 'hero', at least."

Naruto's eyes had changed. They lowered. "Well, you see, I wanted to see if I could change him. Maybe use him as a weapon," Naruto went on. "It's not like I would have any other reason to have him clinging to me." Those words seemed to kick into the officer who was interrogating him.

All the cop could do was keep writing. "We'll have to look into the matter," the cop said before standing. "We're going to search for that Uchiha now by putting up fliers as well. Got any questions?" Naruto responded in silence. The cop left, picking up the stack of papers which he'd staple on different billboards, trees, windows etc.

Sasuke's pov

I heard a clinging noise. It was staples hitting the window of the store next to me. "Wanted: $100,000 reward." There stood a picture of a drawing which seemed to be me. I got up, went to the paper and picked it up. My jaw hung open as it read out what Naruto said. All I could do was let out a small cry before going to hide. Naruto was done with me; and now I had no place to stay.
