8. A New Face Arrives

TW: Non-Con/R*pe

I hadn't slept very well last night, the reoccurring dreams were getting worse and my night sweats weren't any better either. I couldn't be bothered heading to the bathroom that I usually used in the western wing and I'd stumbled across another while I was exploring which happened to be situated only a few doors down from my room.

I slowly opened the door and took a moment to look at the two small windows across from me, it must have been just before dawn because the light that shone through them was a dim grey and it reflected the exact same colour upon the whole tiled room.

I stripped down and hopped in the shower, the feeling of tepid water rolling off my pale skin felt so soothing. I trailed off into thought as usual.. It was my birthday actually, It had slipped my mind and since my previous birthdays weren't treated as anything special I didn't expect this one to be particularly great either.

I got out of the shower and started drying myself still deep in thought.. I still had Jutsu to work on, especially my lightning clones so I really should eat and start training soon.

I winced slightly as I accidentally pressed too hard against the now healing bruise on my cheek, I had forgotten about it and how I'd gotten it but the memories I desperately tried to erase from my thoughts came flooding back. I pushed it out of my mind immediately not wanting to let those feeling of worthlessness get a hold of me. I hastily got dressed and headed for the kitchen, I pulled out some bread and quickly munched it down.

Time to train I thought, it was my day off from Kabuto so I'll make it worth it. As I reached the training room I saw two figures standing there, one slightly shorter than the other.

As I got closer I realized that it was someone I had never seen before.. A boy with dark raven hair. He was as pale as me but the look on his face was completely emotionless. This must have been the boy Orochimaru spoke of.

"Ah I see your up early, Tila.. I have someone I want you to meet" He said, turning around to face me. The boy turned around as well and directed his attention towards me. He stared blankly yet hinting curiosity, I stared back plainly. This Nin doesn't look much older than me I thought to myself as he went to introduce himself

"Sasuke Uchiha" He said bluntly, averting his gaze elsewhere slightly.

"Tila Kurama" I reply quietly.

I look back towards Orochimaru " I have training to proceed with .." He nods and turned to Sasuke, "I'll leave you here, do as you wish". I stared at them, listening to Orochimaru as he spoke.

"You will both have a training session with me tomorrow but will resume properly next week, I have things to tend to in the meantime" He turned around and leaves.

I turned around too, my training was priority and I had lots of it to do.

"Your training here too huh?" Sasuke's husky voice asked from behind, I turned to look at him curiously. "Yeah, I'm working on lightning clones" I replied.

"I use lightning style too" He seemed to be sizing me up somewhat.

"Oh I see," I break from his intense gaze, it was so cold.. Almost as though my skin tingled.

"So it's Tila right? .. We should train together" He was abrupt. "Sure.." I say slowly, did I really have a choice? It would be weird if I said no..

"Show me your lightning clones?" He was interested in seeing my Jutsu? Maybe having someone to train with wasn't such a bad idea, the more experience the better.

"Alright" I ready myself and began to weave signs "Lightning Style: Lightning Clone Jutsu!" I yelled and clapped my hands together as a bolt of lightning appeared with another me forming quickly. I looked over at my clone and it looked back at me, a small smile crept onto my face.

"Mh" I heard Sasuke say as he looked between my clone and I.

"Can you .. Teach me the hand signs?" He asked hesitantly,

"Saru - Ousu Buta - O Ushi - Inu" I reply, watching him. With a nod he began to weave, a clone appeared but disappeared straight away.

"You can d.." I was cut off "let's keep practicing" He said coldly. I gave a short nod before we continued making clones until we both were able to maintain three, we then made them spar each other.

The cling and clang of Kunai connecting sounded throughout the empty walls as we both stared at each other seriously. For some reason I couldn't hold in my laughter any longer! I burst out laughing for the first time since if gotten to this rotten place.

Sasuke glared at me looking completely taken aback. "What's so funny?" He said loudly over the noise of our clones still in battle. "You should see how serious the look on your face is!" I managed to say between laughs, he cracked a small smile.. I think he may have realized his face was way too stern and saw the slight humour in it. My laughs died down and we continued to watch as our clones finally hit each other simultaneously with Shuriken and proofed away.

"Have you eaten?" The words came out of my mouth quickly.

"Not yet" He said plainly, gaze lingering on me. "Follow me then" I said as I headed back to the kitchen with Sasuke right behind me. We entered the dingy room and I sat down at the table. "Help yourself, I'm guessing you weren't shown around much" I said looking towards him as he open the cupboard. "Mh" He muttered, picking up a packet of Ramen and looking back over at me.

Once his Ramen was ready he sat across from me to eat it. Occasionally he looked up at me again with the same blank gaze. Then, he asked me a question.

"So, how did you end up here?"

I wasn't really excepting him to ask something like that so abruptly.. He didn't look like he would be the type to give a crap ..

"Oh me? I.. Was taken.. From my home" I mumbled, not really want to go into detail. I left it at that. He caught on because he didn't question me further after that.

He finished and put his bowl into the sink quickly cleaning it, I couldn't help but to watch him. It had been a while since I had been in contact with anyone other than the two psycho perverts since I had gotten here.

"Do you want to train together again tomorrow? I have a technique that I can show you" Sasuke offered, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Sure, there isn't much else to do around here" I said standing up from my chair. We both walked out of the kitchen back into the hall, he looked at me one last time before heading off in the opposite direction. I headed back to my room, I was feeling strange for some reason ..

I took off my shin weights and packed away my weapons then lay down on my bed, I really should have asked Sasuke why he was here when I had the opportunity I thought to myself.

Suddenly my door begun to opened slowly.. What in the world... I sat up looking over to see Orochimaru entering. He shut the door behind him

"Tila, I cannot wait for you any longer" He said as he strode over to my bed.

In one swift movement he had me pinned down on the bed, my clothing being torn off, the cold of the air hitting my skin. I struggled to break free from his firm grip but every time I did I received a hard blow to my body. It hurt so much, overpowering, the feeling of being groped made me sick in my stomach. I was completely naked... lying there defenceless. My mind was fogging up.

His thighs forced my legs open. "Don't struggle my dear, I promise you'll enjoy this" His smirk was sadistic, as though my pain was his pleasure. I felt something long and hard thrust all the way inside me. Tears spilt. I felt so violated, so hurt, nausea started to rise within my belly.

The feeling started to move up and down inside me, in and out.. I stopped moving because every time I did he would hit me again, hard. I wanted to hold back the tears with all my might, I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of knowing he had me beat but I had no control. Not over my body, or my heart.

The rest of what happened became a blur. I rocked myself crying in my bed alone. What had I done to deserve this? My body ached so badly, I felt like I was nothing.

Just a tool for Orochimarus' pleasure, completely disposable. I cried for a while longer, I eventually gathered myself and got up. There was dried blood on the inside of my thighs. Fresh bruises covered my body. I need to clean myself up.

I gathered some clothes and headed for the smaller bathroom in the same wing, I reached the door and entered. I put my clothes down and turned on the shower, quickly inspecting my body in the mirror. I looked atrocious, my virginity had been stole from me by the very man that had stolen everything else I had. I got into the shower and zoned out completely, thinking deeply about all sorts of things, blaming myself for what had happened.

______Susuke's point of view________

God this place is like a maze I thought to myself as I walked down the dimly lit halls trying to find the toilet, I needed to go real bad. I noticed a door slightly ajar as I walked past, I decided to stop and have a look in.. It was rare to find a door open around here.

I peeked in and saw Tila naked in the shower, oh shit. I was about to leave but my eyes quickly laid on the multiple bruises covering her body.

How the fuck did she end up like that? They weren't there earlier when we were training, not that I was focusing on her body or anything.

I looked closer and realized she was crying, I backed away and headed back to my room. What was going on in this place? There's more than meets the eye. I'd better keep my guard up while I'm here. I thought as I sighed and laid on my bed. The urge to pee had gone away and I fell asleep quickly.

____________Tila's point of view_____

I snapped back into reality and I could feel that my eyes were swollen from crying, I hopped out and got dressed. I went to open the door but it was already open.. Oh crap, I mustn't have closed it properly. I headed back to my room. I was mentally exhausted and just wanted to die.

I crawled into bed and shut my eyes, I would do anything to escape this reality.
