I will survive (naruto fanfic)

Ch 87

"We meet again, Ishi Uchiha." 

I know that damn voice. Oh my God, I completely forgot about him. Which is funny, seeing as he tried to kill me before. 

"Madara Uchiha," I frown. You seriously think I'm going to expose him now, I like breathing too much. 

Everyone was in the room by this point, which didn't help the tension. I'm in a room with some of the most powerful people in the world. 

I'll just address him as Madara from now on, don't want to slip up. Madara let out a dark chuckle as he looked up at me, his sharingan glowing through his mask. 

"You have matured from that small, weeping child, yet have you truly transformed over these years" Is he trying to mock me? After he kidnapped me? This is unbelievable. 

I tilted my head in thought, good question. I'm definitely stronger but I'm still running away a lot. 

"Who knows," I'm not going to step into that territory. I won't win in this fight. 

He didn't answer to that, choosing to stay quiet and observe. A choice that I really didn't like. So I mimicked his actions, observing him back. Taking note of details that will probably be useless to me. 

He was in all black except his orange mask, nothing too different from what I remember. Though his hair was cut. So sad, he actually looked good with long hair. 

I took a deep breath in the silence, breaking it. I don't want to play these games. If it means I can stop this, I don't mind breaking first. 

"I would like to get straight to the point of my... kidnapping." I kinda came willingly, but if I had refused, I would have been forced. So basically no choice in that matter. But no matter, I am here now. 

Madara chuckled again, I could tell he was amused.

"Such unwavering confidence," his voice then took a dangerous edge, "It's evident you've completely lost touch with your standing, though I suppose that's not surprising given how little you ever understood it." 

Oh my- He can't be serious. 

"It's been a long week, I have no will to play games." I had surgery a few days ago. I took off the bandages and have had my vision for only a few hours. Technically less because I fell asleep a half hour in. 

I don't want to use any more energy than I have to. Work with me, people. But Madara didn't seem to share my thoughts, as he then had more edge in his voice. He sounded snappy, his words held a bite to them. Like a threat. 

"This is far from a trivial matter." He spoke slowly, like he was talking to a child. Or someone lesser than. And this made me angry. Does he want to show how macho he is in front of those he's tricked. 

Pain and Konan were still very much in the room, silently watching this go down. I've been taking this situation seriously, but it seemed like it didn't look that way. Time for a change in attitude then. 

"Alright then, please just tell me why I'm here and let me by on my way." I also said this slowly, but not in his belittling tone. I don't mean to mock or insult, I mean to leave here in one piece. 

This will be hard though, because this is very crucial and delicate information. I know Madara exists and that he is in the Akatsuki. That information will not get out for another 3 years, it's a well kept secret. 

"It's not quite as simple as that." Madara finally sounded calmer. Pushing off the wall, he slowly took steps in my direction. Slow and deliberate. Like he was stalking prey, his eyes never left mine. His sharingan still blazing brightly, full of fury. 

I feel threatened. He's openly releasing chakra in waves towards me. He's showing his bloodlust. 

I took a step back as my sharingan activated on pure instinct. I narrowed my eyes as I took another step back and he took one forward. 

I know he won't hurt me, but that doesn't stop my body from reacting due to fear. I had to look away from his intense gaze. 

I looked towards Pain and Konan for help, unable to think rationally in this situation. I'm too stressed out from everything that's been happening. 

But when I caught both their gaze, all that stared back was cold, calm eyes. 

I'm trapped. I'm alone with my enemies. 

Once I feel the wall at my back, I make eye contact with Madara again. He hasn't taken his eye off me once this whole time. I've had his attention from the very start. 

This is like when I was 11 all over again, that scared little girl who was so close to death that she was touched by its kiss. 

I don't like this. 

He had stopped in front of me by this point, my being trapped between a rough rocky wall and a dangerous man. My choice was obvious on which I will be pushing up against. 

"You are aware of my continued existence, and that knowledge carries considerable peril." I've been ignoring it up until now, but why does he talk like that? 

Never mind, I think he probably won't hurt me. This is very threatening. 

"Speak." I froze when he ordered me to talk. About what, only God could tell me. But I just started throwing out sentences. 

"I've been aware of you for years, you know this. But have I ever even spoken of your existence. No, I've been silent. Like I never even met you." 

I feel like I'm begging for something. I don't know what is happening, but this isn't on my bucket list. 

Madara just looked amused, I could practically feel his smirk. 

"I know, because if that were true, you'd definitely not be standing here." I can't do this. My body is screaming at my mind. 

I've never been so glad that I never had the urge to spread his name around. Please stop doing this to me, it's not like I will fight you. 

Madara tilted his head, almost like an innocent gesture. Which made it more creepy. 

"Your experiments." 

I felt like he was finally giving me mercy, because he turned his sharingan off and was getting to the point. 

"I would like to see them in action."

A/n I think that month I was gone, I store up my writing so that when I started it would break open and I would just write and write until I got sick of it. That's what keeps happening. Sheesh. Like, you poor poeple have to wait so long and then on a random day I publish a bunch of chapters, only to go back to doing nothing. Such a toxic relationship. *sobs* You guys deserve better! *sobs* Enjoy~
