'Strategy'
Ch 08
Underground in the swirling hallways of Orochimaru's hideout lies a sparring room. decorated with stone floors and pattern-carved walls, stationed stagnate in the room was lonely naruto. With one knee up his right forearm rested on his knee, his big blue eyes staring off into deep thought, a million thoughts ran through his mind. From the moment he woke up to the moment he went to sleep his head was assaulted with the same thoughts, they haunted him, oppressed him. His hatred began to weigh too much, it stung, when he tried to think of something else, there it was again, forcing his attention, the feeling of this hatred stung more then any blade could. the only way he knew how to set himself free from this battle Was to destroy the leaf. It must be by his own hands, then satisfaction will comfort him
"TP.. TP.." the sound of foot steps brought him out of his daze.
Orochimaru and Kabuto joined him
"Nice to see you again, Naruto. All you do is be in the sparring room." Kabuto says "lately I've been analyzing you, you've really been progressing, congratulate yourself"
Naruto doesn't even look in their directions. just resting his chin on his arm, starring off into space again.
"Its been 6 months since your little encounter with your your friends -" kabuto started
"THOSE NINJA ARE NOT MY FRIEND!" Naruto snapped "they are only speed bumps in the way of my goal. I will destroy the leaf village with my own hands. Friends? They never were from the very start, They will die in my next attack."
"This boy is... " thinks Orochimaru
"Hm." Kabuto chuckles looking over at Orochimaru's face " this boy's heart is so dark he's even got lord orochimaru shook."
"Listen naruto boy, I want to introduce you to someone, he's an experiment of mine, he can be an allie of yours, if you have no friends, maybe he could fill that gap in your heart" Orochimaru says with his gentle voice "meet kimimaro, a worthy fighter"
The sound of Footsteps filled the hollow room once again, they were slow, unorganized and off beat. An unfamiliar face walked in taking naruto's attention
"This will be your sparring partner from here on out, your progress should soar with someone on your level of skill" Orochimaru says
"Your telling me this woman is on my level?" Naruto ask
"Mind your manners boy, kimimaro is fully male" kabuto says pushing his glasses back on his face.
"I'll let you two reminisce" Orochimaru says walking off.
Orochimaru met up with guren and her crew, the Otokagure outside the hideout.
"Lord Orochimaru, you called for us?" Guren says
"Yes, we're waiting on someone before I start talking" Orochimaru says "I have a big mission for you, its top priority for my plan to unravel, this one must be a success. I've kept plenty of experiments locked away, i think it's time to release a few of them, i need all the power i can get for this mission."
"Yes my lord, I will gladly offer my talent for your glory" Guren says
"Ah, here kimimaro is now" Orochimaru says
Kimimaro walks out joining the group in their discussion.
"Kimimaro?" Guren thinks "never heard of him"
"This is kimimaro, he was my next vessel, but came down with an illness, now he will serve me in anyway I best see fit. He too has a kekkei genkai like you guren" Orochimaru starts
