Orochimaru's Creation (KakashiXReader)

Escaped

(A/N: as most do; I've re-read this story...and even though there's some cringe moments; I believe it gives it that real first story feel. I may publish an edited version one day; but until then.. if you're reading. Thank you 🖤)

I couldn't stop running. I was out but I needed a safe place to stay. I could still be drug back at this point.
  My legs burned and I could barely breath; but I wasn't going to stop.
Keep going (y/n); don't give up now, I thought to myself. I couldn't sense anyone following me but I still wasn't going to stop.
I wasn't going to risk it.

Finally I reached a gate. A guard stopped me but before either of us could speak; my whole world went black.

When I came to I was locked to a chair. I groaned as I looked around me. It seemed to just be an empty room.

Oddly dark.. oh no.

I instantly felt nothing but dread.
Did he get me before the guards could?

I started hyperventilating, I hoped I was anywhere but there again. The door creaked open and a few masked figures stepped in.
I steadied my breath; it wasn't him. I wasn't back with Orochimaru.
One of the figures stepped forward, "Who are you?"
I answered quickly, "(y/n) (l/n)."

"Why are you here and why do you have his mark?"

I silently cursed to myself, his brand to remind me I was his.
I knew I couldn't tell them the whole truth. They'd probably kill me.

"I was running. I escaped Orochimaru and ran as fast as I could to safety." I kept stumbling over my words; but I hoped that would suffice.

He sounded impatient when he spoke again, "That still doesn't tell us why you have his mark."
I looked down, "I don't know why I have it."

He lifted my head up with two fingers underneath my chin, "Everyone knows he doesn't mark just anyone. What aren't you telling us?"

I moved my chin from his fingers and didn't answer. He sighed, "looks like we'll have to do this the hard way."

~Time Skip~

When I came to I could feel my face throbbing. I groaned, a small price to pay, I thought to myself.
It wasn't long before a masked figure entered again. I couldn't determine if it were the same person who questioned me; but that wasn't gonna stop me from talking.

"Are we gonna do this some more?," I spit blood beside their feet. Earning a slap before they silently freed me from the chair. I was way too weak to even think about fighting back.
I went to step forward and my world spun. Before I fell two arms caught me. I was thankful.. until they threw my already aching body over their shoulder. I groaned but stayed still. I didn't want to cause myself any more unnecessary pain.
I closed my eyes and began taking deep breaths; I needed to focus on something besides the pain that jolted through me with each of their steps.

We finally stopped moving but I kept my eyes closed.

"I'm here to see the hokage," a feminine voice cut through the silence. There was no response but we started moving again.

I heard doors open and I was arubtly dropped to the ground on my ass.
I groaned as I opened my eyes and brought myself to stand. There was a beautiful woman sitting behind a desk and a older gentleman standing next to her. They were both staring at me intently. There were a few other ninja? On each side of the room. I wasn't too familiar with how villages like this worked...

     I've been with Orochimaru my whole life; in that damn dark hole he loved.

      Existing hurt right now but I gave a small bow, "The hokage I presume?"

She spoke up, "Tsundae, but yes. (Y/n) (l/n)?" I nodded and she continued, "I've been told you haven't been cooperating with questioning."

     I sighed, "I told them; I don't know why I was marked."

The older man beside her spoke up this time, "Do you really expect us to believe that? We've known Orochimaru our whole lives; he doesn't take a liking to just anyone."

    "With all due respect-," I waited for his name. And thankfully he instantly understood my pause, "Jiraiya." I gave a brief nod and continued, "Jiraiya, but that doesn't change my answer."
The hokage didn't hesitate, "Fine, take her back for more interrogation." I heard moving behind me but I knew I didn't want to go back to that damn room. I quickly yelled, "WAIT!"

They all stopped and the hokage looked at me expectedly. I sighed, "But some of your guards need to step out before I continue."
