Naruto : Venom

”I’ll return your ultimatum with one of my own.” Doto isn’t phased at all by my sudden switch from lunatic to predator. If anything he’s happier that he’s seeing this side of me. ”Surrender to me or I kill Koyuki.”

Doto swiftly holds a kunai to his niece’s throat. She finally peels her eyes off of the head to stare at her uncle in fear, she truly believes he will follow through with the threat.

...

”Really?” I darkly snort out. ”Don’t you need her alive? Don’t make threats you can’t back up, that’s a novice mistake. Wanna try again? I’ll wait.”

”That is where you are mistaken, I only need the Hexagonal Crystal.” Doto easily supplies me with a dangerous glint in his eyes. He’s being one hundred percent serious with his threat. ”The only reason she’s still breathing is because I can use her to keep the rebel factions in line. Should they step one foot out of line I will have her publically executed. I do not need her alive, she simply serves a purpose if she is. I can make it work either way. So what is your answer? Surrender to me or Koyuki, who you have been hired to protect, will perish. You have five seconds.”

”You’re a dick.” I throw the insult at him. ”Fine. I accept. Bind and gag me if you’re into that sort of thing but there’s one thing you should know.”

”Oh do go on.” Doto tilts his head slightly in amusement. ”I haven’t had this much of a challenge from someone in years. I miss this, it brings back memories. Nowadays it’s either they roll over out of fear or respect and take it like the ants beneath my boot they are or they can’t put up a good fight and die far too quickly. But you, you seem fun. Possibly insane with a multiple personality disorder but fun.”

”Right… I’m going to ignore the whole part where you called me insane.” It’s official, I really don’t like this guy. ”Koyuki is the only reason this blimp isn’t a buring mess of molten metal. Because she is on this blimp it hasn’t exploded yet, so the second she dies - by you or someone else - I’m destroying it and everyone onboard. It’s in your best interest to keep her alive at all costs because right now she’s the only thing protecting you from me.”

”Of course of course.” Doto waves off my threat with ease. ”I prefer if she survives, I just won’t lose anything if she doesn’t. There’s no need to worry.”

”Yeah something tells me that I should worry.” Well this sucks. I’ve got to surrender to keep her alive. That’s fine, I’ll just break out of prison. I’ve always wanted to break out of a prison. I have the weirdest bucket list ever. ”You’re way too relaxed about this, I killed three of your shinobi and you wanted to hire me? You’ve got issues. That means alot coming from me.”

”I recognize talent when I see it. Your potential is great, I can feel that you’ve barely scratched the surface of what you can truly do. So I offered you a spot in my forces, surely I can provide more than Konoha. They’re too soft for people like us, people willing to do whatever we can to achieve what we want. It’s too bad for you that I had the better hand in our game of threats, perhaps under my tutelage you can become great.”

What. The. Hell.

Why does everyone want me to join them? First Orochimaru demanded I join him multiple times, Danzo attempted to recruit me into his ROOT, fucking Tobi invited me into the Akatsuki when I become S-rank and Doto is offering me a spot too?

”No thanks. It’s too cold here.” I blandly deny his offer even though I’m shouting curses in my head. As I’m insulting various people and deities in my head I hold out both of my arms towards him in a sign of surrender. ”So are you going to tie me up or handcuff me? I vote handcuffs, they’re so much more fun! Oh oh both! Do both! Tie me up and handcuff me! WHAT THE FUCK AM I SAYING?! Not you! You don’t get to do that! Have one of your hot kunoichi do it! A scantily clad leather wearing kunoichi that demands to be called Mistress if you got one!”

A long silence descends on everyone present. They’re all looking at me with different emotions ranging from shocked, scandalized, amused, inspired, and disbelief.

”Holy shit.” My arms droop down a little as I realize something about myself. ”Maybe I am into bondage? I could have gone anywhere and said anything but I went there. What does that say about me? I… I need to think on this.”

~Well… just pointing this out mind you, it doesn’t actually mean anything, but between me and the Spiders you have two very easy and reliable ways to restrain people. So… yeah.~

While I was distracted someone stepped up and clasped a pair of handcuffs around my wrists. They aren’t just any handcuffs, they take up about a quarter of my wrist and forearm. The reason for that isn’t because it’s a stylistic choice, it’s to provide room for a chakra suppression seal that has been etched into each cufflink. That’s very smart, normal shinobi would have no way out of this. I do though, I can think of a few off the top of my head.

”I’ll be your Mistress.” The person, no, the kunoichi who cuffed me succulently says as she runs a finger up and down my arm. ”I don’t have any leather but I do have a corset. It’ll be so much fun to break you!”

”EEP!” I squeak out and try to move away from her. ”Doto where’s the prison at! Where! I’ve got to go! Get me out of here! BACK! BACK I SAY!” I swat at the kunoichi that wants to be my Mistress. ”Vile strumpet I will not succumb to your feminine charms!”

”Is he always like this?” Doto asks Koyuki as he sheaths his kunai. ”He acts this way one moment then another the next. It happens so quickly.”

”Yes.” Koyuki forces out. ”He’s insane. There’s no other way to describe him.”

”Take them both to the warship’s hold.” Doto orders with a drawn out sigh as he rubs his forehead in resignation.

”It’s a blimp!” I shout at him while struggling in the bearhug of the kunoichi. I let her catch me to further the illusion that I am rendered harmless. I’m putting up with her, for now. ”Let me go! Unclean! Unclean!”

”There should be a Mistress in there somewhere.” The kunoichi smiles sweetly at me and I feel a strong sense of foreboding. ”Guess who the head jailor is?”

”Uh… not you?” I weakly guess as she snags the chains between my handcuff and starts to drag me out of the room towards what I’m guessing is the blimp’s cells. ”It’s you, isn’t it?”

”Mistress.” She narrows her eyes at me. ”It’s you, isn’t it Mistress.”

”Why did I have to open my stupid mouth?” I whine to myself as she drags me to my doom. ”Why?”

...

”Hm.” Sasuke looks up from his book and stares intently off in the distance. Keen observers notice that he’s staring north. ”I have the feeling that justice was served. That someone who always plays with fire finally got burnt.”
