Cursed

‘Never look a Raven in the eye for too long It might steal your soul..’

              a  smile  is  given,   “  that  is  good!  you  deserve  it.   ”  and  she MEANT  THAT wholeheartedly.  for  what  he  did,  she  wished  she  could  give  him  more.  but,  she  had  very  little  to  give.  so  the    l e a s t   she  could  do  is  give  him  a  place  to  stay  until  he  was  well  enough  to  go  home.  when  he  sat  up  straight,  she  assumed  that  meant  he  wanted  to  feed  himself.  so  she  carefully  set  the  bowl  on  the  table  NEXT  to  him.  “  it’s  very  hot,  so  please  be  careful.   ”

              “  it’s  nice  to  meet  you  sasuke.  thank  you  again  for  all  that  you  did.  ”  tohru  rose  up  from  where  she  sat,  going  to  the  sink  to  get  him  some  WATER  next.  he  must  be  very  in  need  of  some  after  how  hard  he  worked.  the  question  though  took  her  off  guard,  making  her  drop  the  glass  into  the  sink  and  watching  it  shatter.  “  o  -  oh!   ”  she  said,  rushing to  do  something  about  the  mess  with   a   n e r v o u s   laugh.  “  is  it  that  obvious  then?   ”  she  reached  to  pick  up  the  glass,  her  clumsy  self  taking  over  once  more,  managing  to  cut  her  finger  drawing  blood.  a  soft  gasp  was  given  as  she  drew  back.

“Thank you.” Sasuke responded, reaching to carefully put the bowl in his lap, watching her as she approached the sink

He sighed when she thanked him again, though wouldn’t repeat what he just did, realizing that it was useless; if she wanted to see him as some sort of hero, that was her choice, he just hoped she’d be prepared when she realized who he truly was as a person, no one worthy of praise in his eyes

“Careful” he told her when he heard the glass break, but it was too late, he saw her flinch back, catching the sight of blood on her finger

She’s clumsier than most non-shinobi.. he thought mildly, Alone like she is.. that could be dangerous..

“It’s obvious to me. I don’t know about anyone else, but I can always tell when someone else is the same” Sasuke said

            she  did   UNDERSTAND  that  it  was  a  mission,  but  that  didn’t  mean  he  had  to  risk  his  life  for  her.  he  could  of  wiped  her  out  along  with  them,  no  one  would  of  missed   a    p o o r   village  orphan  girl.  but  he  didn’t,  he  still saved  her  anyone.  even  though  she  was  no  one  important.   ( deep  down,   he  must  have  a  very  good  heart.   )

              tohru  took  the  rag  back  with  another   GENTLE  smile.   though  any  little  bit  of  money  would  be  enough  to  keep  her  going  from  some  time,  she  didn’t  need  it.  “  no  no,  money  isn’t  needed.  if  i  had  any  extra  it  would   be   y o u   that  deserves  it.   ”  but  alas,  she  did  not  have  any.  being  just  her,  and  even  in  a  poor  town  she  was  often  labeled  as  a  dirty  orphan  girl,  she  didn’t  make  much  MONEY.  she  had  none  to  spare.  “  i’m  sorry  that  i  don’t.   ”

               “  but,  i  did  make  you  some  stew!  it’s  not  much  but  it  will  make  you  feel  better  i  bet!   ”  with  the  LITTLE   food  she  had  left,  she  put  something  together  for  him.  a  small  thank  you  for  saving  her  life.  she  got  up  quickly,  running  to  the    s m a l l   stove  nearby.  she  poured  it  into  a  bowl  and  ran  it  to  back  to  him.  she  sat  down  on  the  edge  of  the  bed.   “   i  can  feed  it  to  you?  if  you  can’t   ”   though  she  didn’t  have   MUCH  food  to  use,  she  was  still  a  good  cook.  she  hoped  that  it  would  be  enough  for  him.  though  she  assumed  that  he  ate  better  things  then  this  all  the  time.

                another   s m i l e   was  given,  brown  eyes  not  looking  away  from  him.  “  my  name  is  tohru,  by  the  way.  sorry  that  my  place  isn’t  much  but…  i  hope  it  will  be  okay  until  you  can  GET  HOME.   ”  and  what  a  nice  home  and  village  it  must  be.

"I'll receive payment for terminating the rogue once I return to my village" Sasuke answered simply

She’s housing me... but wants to pay me..?. he thought as his black eyes wandered over the room he was in, taking all the little details

It was obvious that the woman didn’t have much money, or, any money, at all, yet she still felt that grateful for Sasuke simply doing his mission that she wanted to repay him

As she fetched the food she made for him, he sat up straighter, not wanting to seem too weak to feed himself, though kept his focus on the stranger still

"Sasuke" he told her in response when she said her name, still studying her 

            when  the  other  moved  so  suddenly  tohru  FLINCHED  from  where  she  sat.  the  other  had  saved  her  village,  but  that  didn’t  mean  he  wouldn’t  lash  out  because  she  was  scared.  an  injured  man  could  be  like  a  cornered   a n i m a l    sometimes.  you  never  knew  what  they  were  going  to  do.   ( though  she  did  believe  that  the other  was  good.  )

              soft   brown  eyes  didn’t  stop  looking  at  him,  her  features  gentle.   “   —   sorry,  i  didn’t  mean  to  startle  you.   ”   i  could  of  been  SCARY  for  someone  to  wake  up  and  see  the  face  of  someone  they  didn’t  know.   “  i’m  just  a  villager,  i’m  not  going  to  hurt   you.   ”   tohru  smiled   at  him,  trying  to  make  it   know  that  she  wasn’t  a    t h r e a t   to  him.

              “  you  fainted  so  i  had  you  brought  here  so  i  could  tend  to  any  wounds  you  may  have.   ”  he  seemed  to  be   AWARE  and  awaKe.  that  was  good,  he  wasn’t  to  badly  hurt.  the  other  villagers  had  been  afraid  of  him,  afraid  of  his    p o w e r s.  but  tohru  wasn’t,  she  was  grateful.  “  you  saved  me  from  those  bad  men.  thank  you  so  much.   ”

Sasuke looked her over, how she didn’t seem to have any chakra, how her posture and mannerisms, even down to the tone she used were nonthreatening, almost gentle, kind, as if she genuinely meant no harm, and he allowed himself to relax, shoulders slumping, though not lying back down

“It was a mission” he said blankly, before looking down at himself, feeling the strain of how much his body was injured, knowing it would take him some time to actually recover enough to head back to konoha, to report back, and that only annoyed him to no end

I’ll have to send  messager hawk to the Hokage... He thought idly, reaching down to get the cloth she must have placed on his head, handing it to her

               it  felt  like  FOREVER  since  the  bandits  came  into  her  town  and  took  over.  everyone  that  lived  their  was  poor,  the  town  itself  made  for  people  who  could    a f f o r d    to  be  part  of  other   villages.   they  couldn’t  afford  to  become  ninjas  or  do  much  with  their  lives.   so  of  course   they  were  EASY  TO  TAKE  OVER.  a  perfect  target  for  bandits.  though  they  didn’t  have  much,  to  a  bandit  it  was  better  then  nothing.  (   and  it  was  terrifying  to  say  the  least.   )  >

              she  tried  to  hide,  but  that   didn’t  help  in  a  small  town.  she  was  taken,  and  she  thought  she  was  going  to  die.  that  is,  until  he  SAVED   HER.   and  he  got  hurt  in  the  process.

             she  ran  to  his  side,  brown  eyes  filled  with  worry.   “  please  wake  up!  please!   ”  but  he  was  OUT  LIKE  A  LIGHT.   “  please!  someone  help  me!   ”  she  couldn’t  carry  him,  she  needed  help.   villagers  were   u n s u r e   about  helping  the  outsider,  but  she  convinced   them.  he  saved  him,  he  was  good!  a  villager  carried  the  ninja  to  tohru’s   small  cabin,   setting  him  on  her  bed.  tohru  had  NO CLUE  if  she  could  help  him,  but  she  had  to  try.   tohru  made  him  as  comfortable  as  she  could,   placing  a  warm   cloth  on  his  forehead.

Sasuke’s lids finally opened, his onyx eyes glazed with exhaustion; pain blooming throughout his entire body as his mind finally came back online, registering the state the battle left him in

Slowly, he forced himself to move, charred fingers coming to his cheeks, feeling the dried blood that spilled from the extensive chakra drain his sharingan had caused, knowing the state it was in meant he had been unconscious for quite some time, leaving him to wonder exactly where he was
