From Another World (Sasuke x OC)

Chapter 9: The Bet

Sasuke said while he has his hand on his chin pretending to think.

"Haha very funny, Sasuke..."

I roll my eyes and Sasuke smirks.

"Just kidding. Let's go."

"Alright."

I jump into the top of the waterfall then look down at Sasuke.

"Come on, slowpoke!"

"Yeah, yeah I'm coming."

I smirk as Sasuke jumps up and lands next me.

"Hey, Lily, I'll race you back to the hideout."

"You know that I'll beat you so why try?"

"If you're so confident, how about we make a bet."

"What's does the winner get?"

"The winner picks."

"Anything?"

"Anything at all."

I smirk.

"Okay, you're on!"

Sasuke smirks as well.

"On three. One... Two.."

Sasuke quickly puts something on my arms and legs.

"Three!"

Sasuke starts running. I look at what he did and I saw that he put super heavy weights on my arms and legs.

"Why that little..."

I try to break the weights, but they wouldn't budge.

"I guess I'll I have to run with them on. *Sigh* I'm so gonna pound Sasuke the next time I see him."

I start running toward the hideout, but a lot slower thanks to the stupid weights...

~

By the time that I had caught up with Sasuke, he was already at the front of the hideout. I guess that I should of left sooner then I did.

"I beat you here so I win the bet."

Sasuke says with a smirk as I walk up to him and hold my arms up in front of him.

"Yeah, yeah. Now get these dumb things off of me, you cheater."

"Only if you call me 'Master Sasuke' from now on."

He tells me, still smirking. I roll my eyes.

"And why would I do that?"

"Because we had a deal and I won."

"But you cheated, Sasuke."

"Only to make it somewhat fair. Besides, you probably would've beaten me if you didn't take so long complaining before you started."

I look at the ground in front of my feet.

'He's got me there...'

"Fine you win, but I'll win next time. And I won't cheat either."

"Go ahead and try. But I'm pretty sure you're gonna need to get those things off first. So say it."

Sasuke points at the weights on my arms and legs.

*Sigh* "Take these stupid things off of me would you, Master Sasuke."

Sasuke's smirk widens as he takes off the weights.

"Now, was that so hard?"

"Just shut it. Come on, Orochimaru is waiting for us."

"Alright."

~

"Here's Sasuke, Orochimaru. Just like you asked."

I say as we walk into Orochimaru's room. Orochimaru is sitting in his bed looking very sick and weak. Kabuto us standing on the right side of the bed. I walk to the left and I lean on the wall.

"So you've come, Sasuke."

Orochimaru says to Sasuke.

"What do you want?"

"Lily has told us that the Hidden Leaf Village was attacked this morning by the Hidden Sky Village. Although, I thought that she would've told you already, but I guess not."

Kabuto tells Sasuke and Sasuke glares at him.

"Lily knows that I don't care about them anymore. Why are you still interested in the Leaf anyways?"

"I couldn't care less about the Leaf. I was just letting you know. Anyways, that's not why I've called you here to talk abou-"

Orochimaru cuts himself off by coughing like crazy.

"Lord Orochimaru! Are you alright!?"

Kabuto asks as Orochimaru stops coughing.

'Just as I though, he's getting worse.'

"Sasuke... There is a man that I want you to bring to me."

"Who is it?"

"A doctor that gave me the Regeneration Jutsu. By now, he should have another jutsu for me."

'Now I get why he wouldn't send me like he usually does. This guy hates my guts.'

"Oh, that man."

Sasuke says, knowing who it is as well.

"Bring him to me. I am in need of his jutsus."

Sasuke nods then looks at me.

"Lily, let's go."

"Huh? What are you talking about, Sasuke?"

"You're coming with me of course."

I stare at Sasuke. I'd forgotten that we never told him that this guy has hated me since we met.

"She cannot go with you."

Orochimaru tells him.

"And why not?"

I put my arms behind my head and look at Sasuke.

"The guy hates me, Sasuke. If I go with you then you won't be able to get the jutsu, let alone get him here."

Sasuke looks at me slightly confused, but tries to hide it.

"What happened?"

"It's a long story."

"Tell me later then. I'm going."

"Yeah, yeah just get going."

Sasuke nods then leaves.

"Now that the boy is gone, I can speak to you, Lily."

I turn and look at Orochimaru and Kabuto.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"I want you to be Sasuke's bodyguard again."

I tilt my head to my right, still looking at them.

"Why?"

"We believe that he might try to escape before I am able to take his body for my own. And because of that I want you to spy on Sasuke."
