As the rasengan and the chidori crashed together, so did the two fighters memories. The demonic looking boy eyes began to shut slowly, as the bird looking monsters eyes began to come to the realization of what he was doing. The crashing of the river subsided and the two ended up on the shore. Naruto lay still and quiet upon the ground. The sunlight shinning upon his angelic face. The young boy seemed more asleep than half dead. Sasuke stared down at the young boy's face, and watched the scene before him.
"Is this what I did?, he thought himself, I…I'm so…., he was cut off by the pain in his shoulder. The pain caused him to fall over leaving him face to face with the damage he had done. I destroyed him," he thought. He stood up. He saw that his Konoha forehead protector had fallen from his forehead and lay next to Naruto. He noticed the scratch upon it. "I'm not surprised, he said wearily. Sasuke's mind began to reel into motion. "I can't leave him. The one bond I can't destroy. The one person I can't truly defeat. I can't leave him. He's my best friend. He's my brother…," the shock of the revelation made Sasuke's widen. It was then that he did the unthinkable, he took off Naruto's forehead protector and took a kunai, and scratched through the leaf symbol. "he has made me stronger, and will continue to make me stronger, strong enough to kill Itachi," he said to himself. He laid the somewhat bloodstained forehead protector next to his, and picked the unconscious Naruto up. It was strange how he managed to do it, but he put Naruto on his back and carried him like his older brother once did. He walked towards the forest and vanished out of sight along with his brother.
Kakashi noticed the rain began to get harder the closer he approached the scene. "We're nearly there Kakashi," replied Pakkun as he tried to keep pace with the jounin. The dog and the masked man hopped even faster. The two came to an abrupt stop when they saw the headbands lying on the ground.
"What?" said Kakashi in a confused tone.
Pakkun walked up to the forehead protectors and began to sniff them. "It seems Naruto is injured, and probably unconscious, finished Pakkun before walking away from the items.
"So Sasuke took Naruto? He said to the dog, after he tried to kill him, so strange. Can get a lock on their scents?" said Kakashi.
"Sorry, but no, the rain has washed away most their scent as it is," said Pakkun.
"We need to get back to Konoha immediately," he said in a deceptively calm voice. He bent down and picked up the forehead protectors and dashed off towards Konoha.
Sasuke continued to trudge on in the woods with the smaller boy upon his back. He began to feel Naruto's heartbeat get stronger, and felt the boy stirring.
"Naruto , he said knowing the boy was somewhat awake, I brought you with me. Do you wish for me to leave you in the forest or to continue on?," Sasuke said in his usual deadpanned tone.
"Orochimaru…," Naruto said weakly.
"Don't worry about him, I'll settle that," he said without any doubt. The silence that met Sasuke's ear was answer enough, and he continued to Orichimaru's lair.
