Misconstrue [01]

"And there," she said, adding the last finishing touches to her most perfect creation thus far. A small smile played upon her lips as she took a few steps back and gazed in awe at the product of her hard work. "I'm going to love watching you squirm demon."

"There won't be any need for that thing anymore."

The red head spun around at the sound of a voice behind her, although she already knew who it was. Gazing at the onyx eyed man who had entered, the smile on her face only widened. "Sasuke." But he didn't respond, instead he found himself walking towards the open window close to him and gazing out at her garden below. Realizing that he was upset, she frowned and turned back to her newest toy. "And why is that?"

"He's being judged."

She scoffed, "he's already been judged, or is it that being in this house, you've lost track of time?"

Sasuke frowned as he grit his teeth, "just put that thing away."

"No, that thing is going to find your precious demon and end his miserable life," was her response as she waltzed over to the Uchiha. Placing a hand on his exposed bicep, she leaned in to whisper, "and you'll have a front row seat while watching."

"This isn't a game Karin!" He hissed pulling away from her. And although his temper has risen and his words were like venom, the fact that he called her name just then sent shivers down the red head's spine.

Karin bit her bottom lip playfully, "or what?"

Her counterpart's frown deepened once he realized that she was finding their conversation amusing. Taking a deep breath he tried to calm down, but that was hard since he hated every minute of being in the same house with her. Sasuke's onxy eyes glanced over at the lifeless status standing less than a meter away from them. A weapon of mass destruction, that's all she was capable of despite being an angel.

"Beautiful isn't he?" She chimed in shifting her attention.

"Just how beautiful will he look..." he started once he heard tussling in the bushes below. A small smile played upon his lips as the snake that he'd been watching all along grew to it's full height and was now peering in at them through the window. "Once he's torn apart by Aoda."

"I specifically told you to leave that thing behind before coming here!" She shrieked, confused as to how he got in in the first place.

"Where ever I go, he goes as well and you know that."

Karin frowned, "how did he get in?"

"That's besides the point," he said walking towards her, grabbing her arm tightly, Sasuke brought her towards the window to face his venomous companion. "Either you get rid of that thing or I'll have you watch as Aoda devours it right here, right now."

"You and I both know that he's not innocent, he's a cold blooded killer, just like the rest of them."

"That's not for you to decide."

She narrowed her crimson eyes, "who exactly is judging him?"

Sasuke averted his eyes for a moment, "Hinata-" her laughter cut him off.

"And you're still sticking up for him?" Pulling away from the Uchiha she scoffed, "she's never found a man innocent in her two hundred years of working with the council."

He knew that all too well, and it killed him knowing that she might find an innocent man guilty because of her track record, but that was a matter for another day. His main focus was giving Naruto as much time as he could and right now that meant stopping Karin and her new plaything. "She won't."
