A drabble. Sasusaku. Reviews-maybe?


Beads of sweat line her throat

Breaths in harsh pants...

Silence

.
.

And then the wind pushes her forward

A step, followed by another, then another

Sprint

.
.

Sasuke...
And everything else loses focus

.
.

Sakura...

.
.

Their eyes meet

and hold into that oblivion

Because He's there, so close

and she loves him

.

.

.

oh very much

.

.

.

He inhales, sharp and pained

and there's blood in him,

Red

just like his eyes

.

.

Clarity.

.

.

It all comes back then

Veins burning

The pulse of chakra everywhere

Joints protesting

Battle cries

Craters and splinters

Metals clanging

.

.

.

Destruction.
