Chapter 13: Obsessed

Run.

This was the only thing that the raven thought to do as she was being chased by a dark figure, she ran and ran until she was stopped by a house on fire. The flame spread all over the house and became larger as it made the other houses on fire. The raven tried to go back but as soon as she turned around the figure was already in front of her, she closed her eyes preparing herself for what comes next but after moments of waiting-nothing happened. Her eyes quickly opened as soon as she heard screaming coming from behind, she turned around once again only to see people being engulfed by the flames; the screams of those people haunted her as their cries kept playing on her head. It became worse as she soon recognizes two out of the many people burning. Agonizing-this was the only way she could describe what she's feeling right this moment as tears poured down her face.

"Kaa-san, Tou-san..." the raven cried.

She then saw the figure beside her, it's face was unclear but the devilish smirk was still visible. She noticed a very young Sasuko beside her, she was on her knees as she sobbed and whispered their parents' names.

Sasuko couldn't stand the sight in front of her and so she closed her eyes once again but it seems that the vision still continues to haunt her until...

"Ha...!" the raven gasped for air as she woke up from another nightmare. It didn't surprise her that she woke up that way once again, the only things that really bothered her was that unknown figure that she has yet to figure out who it was. Cold sweats dripped all over the raven's face, her eyes swollen from not getting enough sleep due to the previous nights of nonstop nightmares. She wished for it to end but it seemed that no matter what she does the feelings of fear and despair from her tragic and traumatic childhood kept on reoccuring and has not yet subsided. Her pride as an Uchiha destroyed by the horrible events that she has witnessed and gone through all her life. In the previous years she was lucky for having good friends but it wasn't long until the horrid Orichimaru would try to ruin her life, even attempting to hurt those close to her.

Having great power and a wide range of connections in his hands Orochimaru will do anything just to get his hands on anything that he's interested in. He already made a big name to himself in the business industry even being called the "Number 1 Business Man in Konoha", that's why people usually take all his accusations as just a mere joke including Sasuko's statements. So many people has respect and trust on the snake-like man that they stand up for him and challenge those who ever dare make him look bad.

Instead of the raven moving on at the loss of her parents it became worse when the man appeared into her life.

The raven got up from her bed as she tied her hair into a ponytail and leaving her bangs untouched. She thought of going for a little walk to the nearby park to clear her mind out of things. These past days she usually goes to the park and everytime she spends her time their she always felt calm, since they moved in the town it was so stressful for her to try to get used to the environment so going to the park really helped her a lot. She also found a secluded area their that she finds perfect to be her personal spot.

She looked at her digital clock to see that it was still 5:30 and so she walked up to her closet, changed into some casual clothes and went out of her room. She didn't hesitate to go out knowing that the man she hates most is in his business trips and won't be back until a couple of weeks; she was relieved when she got home last night without his presence and just saw a note sticking on the fridge saying he will not be back for a while. She went downstairs and spotted her cat lying on the couch just chilling like there's no problem in the world. She walked up to the fuzzy feline and sat beside her.
