Death Lust (Book 2 Of Blood Lust, A Naruto FanFic)

Screw You

-Samaru's P.O.V-

Sai seems pretty down. I talked to him about that guy Dei exploded before I got caught up in everything. I didn't even see it happen. There was just an explosion. I guess it was his brother or something? I don't know. I wasn't listening to be honest. I was thinking about what Deidera said. Maybe I would get to see Itachi? I mean, I know their using the Reincarnation Jutsu. But did they really bring back Itachi? That would be great.... To just see him again.... 

"Hey!" Kankuro yelled at me. I lifted my head and starred at him for a moment, "You've gotta stay focused. I don't know what the blonde freak told you, but you can't listen to them. They're the enemy." He said, making me nod slightly. I leaned back on the tree I was sitting under. Sai was drawing away next to me.

"Did they use someone you love as well? This, Itachi?" He asked, looking up. I sighed deeply. 

"I'm not sure. If they did, I'll be pissed. It would be nice to see him though...." I whispered the last part. 

"Is that who I remind you of?" I turned my head to meet his gaze, but didn't answer, "If I knew what he looked like, I'd draw him for you." He smiled.

"I don't have any pictures.... They're with Sasuke I think." I closed my eyes, trying to remind myself what he looked like in the small photographs, "I let that brat borrow them so he wouldn't cry in front of me again." A small, dry chuckle left my lips as I spoke. 

"Did you just give them to him?" Sai asked, making me tilt my head slightly. 

"Well, he asked to see his brother again. I couldn't just bring him up from the ground, so I dug through my room at the old Akatsuki hideout and found some pictures of Itachi and I, taken by some of the other members." I explained, "There were lots of pictures, not just of Itachi. Of everyone." 

"So you worked with the Akatsuki then?" 

"You ask a lot of questions for someone who doesn't even sound curious." I huffed, crossing my arms, "But yeah kinda. They took me in when I had nowhere else to go. Everyone thinks they're so bad, but a lot of them are total softies." I smiled slightly, "In fact, Deidera, the bomber, had a huge crush on me a few years ago. Sasori, puppet master, taught me how to use chakra to it's fullest potential. I'm still learning how to control inanimate objects without chakra strings though."

"I see." Was all Sai said before concentrating fully on his drawing. I kept my eyes on him for a moment. Him and I are in the same boat. We both keep our emotions hidden, or we'll lose control of them. I guess I can't blame him for the simple answer. My eyes drifted from him to the sky, sun shinning through the leaves above us. I sighed and closed my eyes, just listening to the sound of the leaves and the pencil flying across the paper next to me, "May I ask you about Sasuke?" Sai suddenly said. 

"Depends what it is." Was my answer. 

"Why are you choosing to bring him back to the Leaf?" He asked.

"I already told you. The village saved my life. If they want Sasuke, then they can have him. Lord knows I don't want him." 

"That's what you say. What's the real reason? Do you really want to just forget about him? About the Leaf Village?" My eyes opened slowly as I held my breath, "You don't seem like the kind of person to just forget." Really? Because that's all I want to do. After I didn't answer, he choose a different question, "If you can't answer that, then tell me this. What is he to you? Explain that to me." I gulped and let the question consume me before speaking again.

"He's the person I go to when I need to beat someone up." I huffed. 

"Let me rephrase. What is he really?" I paused. 

"I told him, after his brother died, that he was the only thing I had left. He probably thought I wasn't being serious, but he really is the only person that makes me..." I took a moment to think, "Feel. Sure, you can put on a bright smile, or get so angry that you wanna punch a hole in a wall. You can be so happy that you can't stop yourself from laughing, until you laugh so hard that tears fall. You can scream and cry until you pass out. But what good is any of that if no ones there to share those moments with you? That's what he is to me. The person I can go to to share moments with, even if they're small and stupid. They're something." I explained, letting a soft smile form on my lips. I heard the pencil suddenly stop as Sai froze up, "I was in love with Itachi. And I shared moments with him too, but not like the ones with Sasuke. When we were young, we would run up and down the village for hours and never get bored. I'd challenge him to races and fights, that I'd always win." The memories that filled my head made my eyes sparkle, "Then I'd get tired, and he'd carry me home on his shoulders." Then I put my head down, "But that was a long time ago. He hates me now." Then there was silence. 

"Has he said that to you?" Sai asked, pencil starting to move again. I rubbed my eye and shrugged. 

"I think I should keep my focus on the battle for now." I said, standing. 

-Time Skip- 

Welcome back to another clone me. Currently, I'm standing beside Gaara. I refused to meet anyones eyes as they attacked me with questions and assumptions.

"What are you doing here?" 

"You're a traitor! Shouldn't you be in jail?!" 

"Someone kill her already!" They all yelled. I just hid myself behind Gaara, trying not to let all the comments get to me. 

"I can't believe they're letting her stand beside us. If no one kills her, then I will!" A man from the Cloud village stomped up to Gaara and I, "And you Kazekage! Why are you helping her?!" Just as he was about to put his hands on the Kazekage, I side stepped and grabbed his hand. I activated my eyes, making many people gasp. I then felt a soft hand on my shoulder, making me drop my head and squeeze the mans arm tightly. He shouted in pain, making a woman walk up this time. 

"Let him go!" She yelled in my face. I clenched my other fist, ready to kill her. After I didn't let his arm go, she slapped me across the face. My eyes widened, as did everyone else's. I finally let him go, growing small claws on my hands. I was completely shocked. I quickly shook off my surprised look, staring the woman dead in the eye, "What're you staring at? Want me to slap you again?!" She shouted, hand raising. As it came down, I caught it. I squeezed and made chakra focus on my palm, burning her skin, "LET ME GO!" She screamed out, pushing away from me, but I kept my grip strong. I was then pulled back roughly. I looked up to see Gaara glaring at me. I met his look and growled. 

"Screw you guys." That's when I stood and jumped onto one of the large rocks around us.
