A Place To Call Home [OC x Akatsuki Story]

Grasping my bearings part 2

____________________

I had stirred about 20 minutes ago. I didn't know how long I was out for or what time of day it was. I felt a bit better but my head was spinning with uncertainty. So many questions and no answers, what was to become of my life? Is this now my home? What did these strange Shinobi want from me? The reality of my situation started to dawn on me.

This was really happening.

The sound of that door creaking open interrupted my train of thought as the now familiar figure of Kabuto edged into the doorway and strode towards my cell, unlocking it he opened it wide "Get some clothes I'm taking you for a bath". Now that I think about it I was still wearing my white tank, which looks as if I'd been rolling in dirt accompanied by my long black skinny jeans.

I stayed silent but got up and went over to my pile of clothes and pulled out my nice floral long dress. My floral dress reminded me of home, that's why I chose it. "Follow me" Kabuto said and headed for the door. I did as I was told, we exited the room and entered a long corridor which was a dark maroon beige colour lit dimly with candles along the walls.

A long hallway..

I studied every detail as we walked trying to become as familiar with my surrounding as possible. I needed to escape, I don't know how long I can stay here without loosing my mentality. We stopped at a door to the side at the end of the corridor, Kabuto opened it with his key and stepped aside gesturing for me to walk in first. I stepped in taking in the sight of the beautiful lush white bathroom, this is so out of place I thought.

I made my way to the already made bubble bath in front of me and set down my clothes onto the bench nearby. I turned around and noticed Kabuto walking towards me, looking at me a way that I've never seen before. "Why're you looking at me like that?" I said bluntly. "Unfortunately I have to supervise you whenever your not in your room" Kabuto smirked. "What!!" I said a little louder than I should have out of utter shock.

"Your kidding? I don't even know you! I can't take my clothes off In front of you!" I exclaimed in the same rushed unbelieving manner. "Well I don't have all day, you can have a bath or I can take you back to your room. Your choice" Kabuto said gruffly. "You can't even turn around while I get in!?" I pleaded. "Fine, Hurry up then" He argued and then turned around and faced the wall.

I quickly threw my clothes off and hopped into the bath, the water was just the right temperature. 'Oh wow I can't believe that pervert is serious!' He turned back around and his eyes fell onto me instantly. I felt very uncomfortable as I reached for the soap and started to wash myself in every nook and crevice. I can't explain how dirty I feel right now.

I eventually forgot he was there leaning against the wall watching me intently, as I finished I stood up and got out and looked around for the towel. "Looking for this" Kabuto's voice echoed off the white porcelain walls. "Ah, yeah" I started to walk towards him and then I realised I was completely naked! I stopped and went completely red in the face.

Kabuto looked straight into my face as he grinned menacingly. "Here" Kabuto then said as shoved the towel into my hands. I quickly grabbed it and wrapped it around myself and turned around.

 'What was wrong with me!? How could I be so stupid! Your naked Tila!!! Ahhh wow, my mind is so scattered from that poison still' I thought to myself.

 I hurriedly dried myself and got dresses as quickly as I could with my back turned to kabuto, I could feel his pervy eyes all over my body from behind me. I just wanted to get out of this super awkward situation. "You sure took your time, Lord Orochimaru will now see you" Kabuto then told me as I turned around fully dressed and my long ash blonde hair towel dried.

I felt a little better now that I was clean and dressed. "Okay" I replied hesitantly. I grabbed my dirty clothes and followed him out of the bathroom back into the long dimly lit hallway. "Here I'll take care of those for you" Kabuto said as he gestured for me to hand over my clothes, I complied and he went into the next room and came out again.

His eyes fell onto me again in that weird pervy way.. "I must say Tila you look quite beautiful. Lord Orochimaru will be pleased you dresses up for him" He turned and started walking before I could say anything. I hurried to catch up to him so I could retort.

"I didn't dress up for the man who slaughtered the only person in my life that I cared about" I spat begrudgingly. "Oh so you do have some fight in you, good" Kabuto shot back. I bit my tongue and held my smart mouth back.

That attitude wasn't going to do me any favours I thought, play it cool Tila. We went through a few more doors and down another couple halls and we reached a massive archway, the room ahead had a large rectangular table in the middle and I could see the dark figure of Orochimaru sitting at the end of it. My heart skipped a beat as Kabuto and I approached closer.

Finally I could ask some questions and get some answers. Truth was, I had a feeling that none of them would be what I wanted to hear.
