Where the Wind Blows Me (sequel to So Not Uchiha)

Meeting Juugo

"We're walking again?.... But I'm so exhausted..." Suigetsu complained as he sat on the ground.

"Heh.. Going inside the north hideout is suicide. We'll all be dead in seconds." Karin said a frown had been on her lips ever since Sasuke had picked up the blonde, she wanted to know why Misa was so important, what did she have that Karin didn't? The red head's gaze fell to the Blonde Uchiha's chest for a moment and she sweatdropped looking at her own. Sasuke wouldn't care about that would he?

"I only know it from maps..." Suigetsu said breaking her out of her thoughts. "Is it really that dangerous?"

"The north lair isn't like any hideout." Karin replied looked at the water boy. Both Sasuke and Suigetsu looked at her. "The north lair is... A place of human experimentations..!" She explained. "It's nothing but a nest of horrible unnatural monsters."

Misa frowned at Karin's words. "Sasuke, wouldn't it be better if I could walk?" She asked.

"Yeah, that might be helpful, since she's SO important!" Karin agreed.

The raven frowned as he looked down at Misa. He growled in frustration as he used a kunai from Misa's pouch and cut the rope around her legs. "You try to run and I'll break them." He threatened unlocking enough of her chakra for her to use her legs. He slowly placed her down. The blonde Uchiha smirked as she stood, Sasuke still held onto her bound arms.

"Hey.. Aren't you tired? Can't we rest for just a bit?" Suigetsu asked taking a sip from his drink.

"You're so lazy! We didn't even get to the north lair yet!"

"I thought you were heading somewhere else? Why don't you just leave, I have enough worries already." Suigetsu replied.

Karin's jaw dropped. "I..Just remembered I have business there too! I need to stop by there first!"

"Yeah right..." The water boy muttered under his breath. Sasuke sat down near Sui, forcing Misa to sit with him. The blonde pouted.

"Sasuke! Why can't you let go, I'd like to be able to stretch my legs!" Misa complained while Suigetsu and Karin talked.

"If I did that, you would be half way to Suna by now." The raven responded smirking down at her. He found her pout quite amusing, with her cheeks red and her eye narrowed. Misa frowned.

"I guest I could maybe give you a few feet." The blonde's visible eye lit up. "Really?!"

Sasuke nodded the smirk still on his face. Misa's frown had returned the moment he had untied her arms and chained his left hand to her right. The chain was about four feet long, though to Misa it felt like four inches. Why did he even have it? She wondered.

Sasuke brought his attention back to the others when Suigetsu mentioned Juugo. "I had to fight him a while back. He's got some cool abilities and he's really strong. I don't really like him, though. I could never tell what he was thinking."

Misa frowned sitting as far from Sasuke as the chain allowed. "I heard he came to Orochimaru of his own will." Suigetsu continued. "Which says a lot about how crazy he was."

"Well think about it. Why would he have come to Orochimaru on his own?" Karin asked her arms crossed.

"I don't know. Because he's stupid?" Suigetsu suggested. Karin stayed silent at that causing Suigetsu to look up at her. "...What?"

"To be rehabilitated." She replied.

"Rehabilitation?"

"Yeah.. He looked at Orochimaru's hideout and saw a clinic."
