Blue Sharingan

Chapter 4

****A/N for the next few chapters possibly, things will get a bit dark. I will try to keep it to a safe amount. However, I want to keep this as real as what might actually happen in the following situations.****

With Kakashi free, Zabuza was forced back to finish their battle. As Zabuza began to use a jutsu, a similar jutsu was appearing right in front of Kakashi. Zabuza, being surprised, released his attack a moment after Kakashi. Kakashi was able to get the upper hand over Zabuza with his Sharingan eye, defeating Zabuza. Knowing that Meeka had been seriously injured, Kakashi moved to finish Zabuza off. Before he could kill him, senbons came out of nowhere and hit Zabuza right in the neck. His body fell limply to the ground. Jumping back, Kakashi was met with a ninja in a mask with the Hidden Mist symbols on the top. Kakashi walked back up to Zabuza feeling for a pulse. When he felt no pulse in Zabuza's' neck, Kakashi stepped back again to let the ninja approach. Kakashi's mind was elsewhere when the ninja spoke to him. After revealing himself to be a hunter-nin sent to kill Zabuza, he disappeared with Zabuza's body.

Kakashi, having to not worry about Zabuza, decided that it was time to help Meeka and continue escorting Tazuna home. As Kakashi started to walk towards where Meeka was sent flying, he collapsed due to chakra exhaustion seconds later as a result of his overuse of the Sharingan.

When Kakashi came to, the Genin sat around him looking disappointed and sad. He looked around the room as best as he could. He could not see Meeka anywhere nearby. Straining to sit up, Kakashi tried to move more. Unfortunately, he had very little strength at the moment. Laying back down, he looked back at the Genin.

"Where is Meeka?" Kakashi asked, fearing the worst. The moment he spoke, the Genin looked at one another before Sakura spoke up.

"...We...couldn't find her" Sakura said softly.

"We looked all over for her but..." Naruto clinched his fists against his thighs in frustration.

"It's like she just disappeared." Sasuke said sullenly.

"hmmm..." Kakashi thought to himself. 'Meeka is missing and Zabuza's death doesn't make sense to me.'

When hunter-nin killed their target, they usually began to destroy it on the spot. On the other hand, the ninja whom they'd met had taken Zabuza's body elsewhere. This, coupled with the fact that Zabuza had been "killed" with senbon, weapons that were rarely fatal and also useful for knocking people out.

---Somewhere else nearby---

Shivering from the cold, the kunoichi slowly crept out of the dark unconsciousness that had been holding her prisoner. Meeka could barely open her eyes from the pain racking her body. Her left side was throbbing badly and her knees ached from being under her. Her throat was dry and scratchy due to lack of water. She could hear muffled noises in another room.

"uuhhh" Meeka moaned softly in pain. Slowly opening her eyes, she tried to look around the room that she was in. That was quite difficult to do for a few reasons. For one the obvious pain. The other thing was that she was chained to both the wall and floor with her hands over her head. Her ankles were chained behind her as well. She tried to reach for the end of the chain above her but the shackle around her neck kept her from being able to reach the wall.

She could hear voices from outside of the room she was in through a crack in the door. It sounded like heavy items were being dragged down the hallway. As one of the items crossed in front of the door, someone stumbled against the door and opened it wide. Meeka wasn't looking at the person that had fallen but rather at what was being dragged.

Staring back at here were a pair of vacant jade green eyes through a mess of long pink hair. Beyond that, she thought she could see the outlines of her other comrades. The ninja who had opened this "can of worms" hurriedly got back up, grabbed Sakura's hair and dragged the lifeless body out of sight. A million and one thoughts raced through her mind as she tried to process what she had really seen.

Suddenly a bright light filled the room and blinded her in that moment. Before she knew it, someone put a blindfold over her eyes. Groaning from both the physical and emotional pain and the blindfold, Meeka tried to listen closely to whomever was still in the room.

"I'm surprised that you are still alive, Uchiha." Came a voice to the left of her. The rough voice belonged to Zabuza. How she ended up captured by him still eluded her. The last thing she remembered was losing consciousness in the forest...and a pair of feet standing in front of her. Ignoring his statement, she focused on her own bit of information.

"You had a partner, didn't you?" the young kunoichi asked him. She hated how her voice sounded so weak but she needed to keep herself from succumbing to the overwhelming grief she felt. Her emotions were fighting to over take her. She wanted to scream and cry out for her team. 'this is why I'm better off alone!' Meeka thought to herself.

"......." The silence from Zabuza only confirmed what she now knew. As she laid there waiting for something to happen, Zabuza asked a question that shocked her to her core.

"Who marked you?" She couldn't feel anything but him staring at her in that moment. Meeka was terrified and he could sense that radiating from her small body. Smirking to himself, he just crossed his arms and waited for an answer as he leaned against the wall.

"What...do you mean?" She tried to clear her throat as it cracked.

She knew exactly what he was talking about though. Although no one should have seen the mark on her left ring finger. She constantly used chakra to hide it ever since the day that changed everything. The ritual had happened years ago that bound her to a member of the Uchiha clan for 7 years. There was barely 4 years left in the contract for it to be permanent. At first, she had been happy but now she felt nothing but pain when she thought of 'him'.

"I heard a rumor that one of the Uchiha boys killed everyone but his younger brother. There was no mention of a fiancé though." Zabuza stated to her as he watched emotions roll across her face. He was going to enjoy toying with her. 'Maybe this could lead to something fun.'

Gritting her teeth, Meeka held back the tears and anger that wanted to burst from her lips. She knew he was just trying to get a rise out of her. Unfortunately for her, he was succeeding rather well. Then he said the one thing that broke open the dam of emotions she held back.

"I wonder what Itachi would do if I got word out to him that I had you here."

"That bastard wouldn't give a damn about me or you. So why don't you just shut the hell up already you Hidden Mist reject?!?" She basically yelled this to him. He smiled to no one in particular. 'Bingo.' Zabuza thought to himself. Although, he did not like the way she spoke to him. Steeling himself, Zabuza quietly walked over to her. When he got close to her, he could see her chest heaving from the combination of pain and anger.

"Stupid wench!" He said harshly as he kicked her hard in her left side. The air left her lungs, leaving her to scream out silently. As she tried to breathe again, spots filled her eyes as she grew closer to a dark abyss. Roughly grabbing her hair, he yanked her head back exposing her neck to him. That motion caused her to yelp out in pain, bringing her back from the brink of unconsciousness. With his other hand, Zabuza gently ran his fingers down her chin to her throat before clenching tightly.

"You will learn your place kunoichi." Zabuza whispered into her ear as she fought to breathe. When she was about to lose consciousness again, he let go of her. Gasping, Meeka breathed in as much air as her lungs could take. She started coughing as she tried to control her breathing. The kunoichi had a moment of clarity that made her sick to her stomach. 'He's going to torture me and no one will know where I am!'

As fear hit her, she heard the light click off and the door slam shut. Before she could stop herself, all of the agonizing emotions came screaming from her lips as she cried out from the pain of having lost her comrades. She cried out for the precious moments she had lost out on. Finally, she cried out from the injustice of loving someone so far away, both physically and emotionally.

***A/N Ok so yes I just remembered that Zabuza is supposed to be laid up in bed from his battle with Kakashi...However, for this situation, she has been out of it for a while. So please assume that he has had time to heal up enough to be like this. Also if this is to ooc for Zabuza, let me know. I am going off of memory right now for this. Thank you. Please leave a comment and a vote if you do not mind!***
