Candle of My Life
Prologue: Da-Tenshi (The Fallen Angel)
By: lunaryu & yunyun
"Run…, run, Sasuke!"!
Sasuke heard his mother's scream before she died, and desperately wanted to run away. He wanted to run away from the man behind him; the man who had murdered his father and mother.
"Run, Sasuke!! Don't stop!! Don't stop!"!
Once again, he heard his father's shout, before the slicing sound broke his cry. Sasuke ran, leaving his father and his mother's corpse. Sasuke panted heavily as he felt his stamina ran out from his body. He couldn't run any longer. His small legs didn't give him much distance from his chaser.
Kami…, please…, don't let me get caught! Please…!!
Sasuke continued running like crazy while silently praying, but then…eventually his feet protested to him. He fell. Sasuke hid behind his father's working desk. He hugged his knees while crying silently, really scared.
Why…, why did he kill mother and father…!?
Sasuke thought fearfully. He was scared, really-really scared. His body trembled so violently, and he shut his eyes hard.
Please…don't kill me!!
"Sasuke…."
Sasuke snapped and opened his eyes when he heard the man calling his name. He widened his eyes in shock. He felt his presence near the room, and heard the man came closer to him, step by step.
No…! No…! Don't let him catch me! Please…, please…!!
Sasuke shut his eyes again in really scared face.
The man now was beside the desk. He stopped to look around. He shrugged, and then walked away.
Sasuke could feel the man was nowhere near him now. He opened his eyes a little, and waited for awhile. Then, after he couldn't hear or feel the man anymore, he sighed.
However then, suddenly someone grabbed Sasuke's shoulder. Sasuke quickly turned his face behind him and….
"Mitsuketa (I found you)," Itachi smirked widely with his blood-crimson eyes staring straightly into Sasuke's.
Sasuke widened his eyes again in shock and….
"IYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)!!!"
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Sasuke opened his eyes and woke violently from his bed. He sat up and widened his eyes until he felt as if his pupils would explode. Cold sweat ran down from his head and his face, even his entire body. He panted so heavily and his body still trembled from the past event in his dream.
A dream…, again…those dream….
Sasuke hugged his now really cold body from his sweat. He sighed slowly and tried to catch the pace of his breath.
Why…did I dream those past events…? It has been six years since that time…and….
Sasuke froze in his spot when he felt a hand ran to his waist and hugged him tightly.
"You're sweating a lot. It's cold…and your body is trembling…," the man beside Sasuke spoke lowly in his sexy-hot voice while waking up as well, sitting.
Sasuke didn't say anything to respond to him; he even didn't look at his face. Then he felt the man's forefinger made trace from his chest to his belly. Sasuke shivered with the sudden motion.
"Did you have nightmare…?" he asked, purring into Sasuke's sensitive ear.
Sasuke pressed the sudden urge to moan. "D-don't…!" he said while pushing the man's body away.
The man smirked, he gripped Sasuke's chin and turned his face to look at his eyes. "You can't object me…," the man said lowly, dangerously.
Sasuke couldn't release his gaze from the man's eyes. He was locked in the pool of blood of his eyes' color. "O-oniisan (brother)…!" he whimpered in trembling voice.
Sasuke couldn't help but close his eyes when Itachi pressed his lips onto his….

"Wait, Narutooooooo!! Don't take my bento!!" Kiba shouted angrily at the blonde who had just snatched his bento from his locker without saying anything and that's fast!!-Kiba thought in disbelief when Naruto ran away from him.
"Ha-ha-ha!! You can't match my speed Kiba!! I'm the ace striker in Konoha Academy's Soccer Club!!" Naruto shouted in full spirit as always. "Yahuuuu!!" he ran so fast, until everyone thought he was flying with his speed.
"Naruto, slow down!!" a pink haired girl suddenly appeared and shouted to the blonde. Then she smacked his head hard (Luna: I wonder how she can see him).
"Ouch!!" Naruto jolted in pain and stopped running in nice break. "Itai yo (that hurts), Sakura-chaaan," Naruto whined while stroking his head painfully. He was pouting and looking at Sakura in teary eyes.
"Your puppy eyes won't affect me!" Sakura said in stern voice. "You know you can't run in corridor! How many times do I have to tell you!?" she scolded him.
"Don't be so strict, Sakura-chan…the rules exist to be violated," Naruto said while grinning.
"Naruto!! I'm a student council!! Can't you see that!?" Sakura screamed angrily at him.
"Maa, maa, don't be so mad. What about my proposal yesterday? Won't you just give up and be my girl friend?" Naruto looked at Sakura in his hot, sexy gaze.
"Kyaaaaaa!! Naruto-kuuuuuun!!" then his fans club had gathered behind him.
"Ooh, my pretty ladies (and some boys --cough--)!!" Naruto waved his hand at his fans club in his cheery grin, and all of them fainted while blushing madly.
"How can you say you like me when you seduce every girl (even boy) in this school?" Sakura asked, looking at him disbelievingly in irritated look while covering her head. She felt dizzy suddenly now because of too her annoyance to the blonde.
"You have hard personality, I like that!" Naruto confessed so confidently.
"No way in hell!" Sakura rejected him in second without doubt.
"Oh well, maybe tomorrow you'll accept me," Naruto didn't look down at all. He even grinned wider.
"What!? I said I don't like you!!" Sakura screamed in frustrated look.
"But I said I like you! I will not take back my words!!" Naruto shouted again in full spirit.
"Heeeey, Narutoooooo!! Get back my bento, you-bastard!!" Kiba suddenly appeared, running from behind with the grim look on his face, still chasing Naruto.
"Oh, oops, have to go now!" Naruto said good bye after stealing kiss on Sakura's cheek. "Jaa!" he ran again in flash light.
Sakura widened her eyes in shock, and then ten seconds later after Kiba had run past her to chase Naruto…, "Aaa…!? NARUTOOOOOOOOO!!!" she screamed while blushing madly on her spot.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"A-ha-ha-ha, that's fun!!" Naruto said while panting slightly, amused. Then he stretched his arm above his head and yawned. "Aaah, ii kimochi (it feels so good)," he said while sighing.
"Na-ru-to---!!"
Naruto froze when he felt the killing aura behind him. He turned his head and saw Kiba who was panting and he looked like shit for running too fast to match Naruto's speed.
"Ki-Kiba…you look like Zombie…," Naruto said in paled face while backing away several steps nervously.
"And whose fault is that!?" Kiba yelled at him while lifting his middle finger at Naruto.
Naruto laughed at him. "Sorry, sorry; here's your bento," he said returning Kiba's lunch while still chuckling.
"Eh, didn't you want to eat it?" Kiba asked in wonder while looking at him in disbelieve.
"Nope, I have eaten mine," Naruto said while grinning.
"Then why did you take it?" Kiba asked, not understanding it at all.
"To play tag, chase and run!!" Naruto said cheerfully.
Kiba face faulted at that and turned his body, walked away while muttering something like 'crazy upper classman' or something like that. Naruto laughed so hard at that, until he didn't realize that he was walking without looking, and suddenly, he bumped into someone.
"Ouch!! Hey, watch your-?!" Naruto yelled at the boy in front of him, but suddenly his voice died in his throat when he saw him.
A very good looking boy has very pale skin and the most pitch black coal enticing eyes. He has smooth raven black hair. His body is tall, thin, and slender, and his expression is unreadable, ningyou mitai ni (looks like doll).
Naruto widened his eyes in shock at the sight in front of him. He had to be dreaming. Right…there's no way in hell that there's a perfect being like this in the world-he thought.
"Move, dobe," the ningyou said in monotone voice, expressionless.
Naruto blinked once. Then he blinked once again.
"You look stupid already, don't make it worse," the raven said as he walked away without looking at Naruto again.
…………………………………..
……………………………………………………
……………………………………………………………………………
There's a really long silence before eventually Naruto regained his sense and snapped.
Huh!? Wait! What did he call me!? Dobe!? And what did he say again after that? I look stupid!?
Naruto's veins popped up on his head as he felt his anger boiled. "Chotto matte, teme (wait a sec, you-bastard)!!" Naruto wanted to chase him, but he walked so fast. When Naruto tried to find him, he was nowhere to be found.
Dare ga…ano yarou (who the heck is that bastard)…?
Naruto thought in wonder. However then…he remembered the feature of his new rival (he has considered him as a rival already only for his good look).
That face and body…is he even human?
Naruto doubted that.
Datte…aitsu wa honto ni kirei…, da-tenshi mitai ni (because…he's so beautiful…; looks like the fallen angel)….
Naruto blushed at the thought while imagining the beautiful raven haired boy with white wings and white angel suit. Then he snapped and blushed even more deeply for the realization that he actually really considered him beautiful.
Kuso…I'm straight, damn it!
Naruto thought, convincing himself in blushing face.
But…I thought I'd ever seen him somewhere before….
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Damn it, that blonde lock Naruto!" Sakura cursed the blonde in her vice president seat at student council.
"Again with him, Sakura?" Neji, the president of student council asked while shaking his head in bored look from his own seat.
"You can say that because it's not you who deal with him, Neji-senpai!! He's total jerk and playboy!! And what's with his blonde hair!! He shouldn't dye his hair like that!!" Sakura yelled hard until she was panting.
"Look at yourself, Sakura. Your hair is pink," Ino said while rolling her eyes in her secretary's seat.
"My hair is NATURAL pink!!" Sakura screamed at her angrily.
"Whatever, could you please be quiet a bit? I can't concentrate with my work!" Shikamaru shouted suddenly throwing his pen in frustrated look with piles of paperwork on his treasury desk.
"Sorry, Shikamaru, we will be quiet…," Sakura said with guilt on her face.
Shikamaru took his pen again and back to his seat while muttering something like 'mendokuse (troublesome)' or something like that.
"Why are you so troubled like that, Sakura? He likes you, you know," Ino asked in her teasing voice.
Sakura blushed at that. "I know that, but he say 'like' to everybody! There's his fans club as well, and why must it be me, actually!?" Sakura asked back, not really understanding Naruto's reason. "He said he likes me because of my hard personality, but I can't see him liking me in the actual boy and girl relationship! It's like he's just toying with me!" Sakura protested.
"Isn't it ok? He's really popular among girls (and some boys), isn't it natural to be a bit playboy?" Ino asked again.
"He seduces every girl (and some boys) in this school!" Sakura argued her hard.
"It's their fault for falling for him in the first place. He doesn't do anything. He's just good looking and has good heart to everybody. If I'd been you, I would have been glad when he seduced me," Ino admitted.
"You're crazy," Sakura rolled her emerald eyes while huffing in her seat.
"Basically, you just want him to look at you only, right?" Ino asked again.
"No!" Sakura said without doubt. "I don't like him that way! He's my friend and that's it! I have my ideal boyfriend too, you know!" Sakura admitted.
"Oh, and is there any boy more handsome, hotter and more popular than Naruto? He's an ace striker in our school, no; in our district's soccer club. His fans are mushroomed, scattering in whole country, and you reject his love. How cheeky you are, big forehead girl," Ino rolled her eyes again in bored look.
Sakura really wanted to defend herself and insulted Ino back, but she couldn't find the words to deny, coz' it's true. She indeed rejected Naruto, the most popular boy in her school, no…in the town, even in country. Well, she didn't know why, but…she just couldn't like the boy, that's it. No reason for that.
"Well, I'll find my prince someday," Sakura said sulkily.
"You're helpless," Ino said again. "Be virgin forever, big-forehead," Ino yawned and glanced at the red-angry face Sakura. She giggled at that. She really liked teasing the girl, her childhood friend.
"Ino, you-PIG!!" Sakura screamed at Ino, really angry at her. Ino laughed visibly at that. Neji just sweat dropped while reading his book and Shikamaru covered his ears while crying in frustration and called the ones who made him treasury ONI (demon) or something like that.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"So…you're transferred here after the accident in your past school?" Jiraya, the head master of Konoha Academy High School asked from his seat.
"Yes," Sasuke said expressionless.
"Hmm…," Jiraya hummed lightly while looking at Sasuke from the top until the toe. "Where's your guardian?" Jiaraya asked slowly.
Sasuke snapped a bit at the question, but then he coughed slightly to fix his expression. "My brother is busy, so I come here alone today," he said nonchalantly, still expressionless.
"Well, I hope I can meet him soon, because I have to talk many things, not just the matter of money. You even haven't attended the Exam to enter this school," Jiraya said.
"My proposal to transfer here is completed by my brother," Sasuke said, "I didn't know if there's an exam to enter this school, but if you insist me taking the exam, I can take it right here and now," the raven haired boy continued without any doubt in his eyes.
"I see…, you have the confidence to enter this school," Jiraya said in his pleased smile.
"Very well, then…I'll give you the exam myself," Jiraya said in his smirk.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"You're still wooing that pink haired bitch, Naruto?" Temari stopped checking the time for sprinting 100 meters to the soccer club's members, and turned her face to ask Naruto, his junior in disbelief (she's the manager of soccer's club).
"Hey…, don't call her like that, Temari-senpai! She's a good girl!" Naruto protested.
"She's not so pretty, you know, and she's so choky for rejecting you. Why don't you take one of your fans to be your girl friend instead of her? They probably don't mind giving their lives for you," Temari suggested while continuing her work as manager.
"Ya da na (oh, no), Temari-senpai, you rejected me too last year when I'm still fresh man, and you're in second grade," Naruto said in his teasing grin.
"I'm not fond of the boy who is younger than me," Temari said surely.
"Sooo, you date Shikamaru that lazy ass in treasury instead of me?" Naruto asked in suggestive smirk.
"Shikamaru-senpai, Naruto! He's your senpai too, you know; and no, he's not my boyfriend, we just coincidentally like reading and looking clouds, that's why we spend time together," she said calmly.
"Sumanai (how boring)…," Naruto said in bored look.
"Hey, you haven't answered my question, Naruto. Why do you pick that Sakura-girl to be your liking? She doesn't like you. Just give up, will you?" Temari said.
"It's not like I like her that much," Naruto said while smiling.
"Then, why do you insist dating her?" Temari asked not understanding it.
"Because she looks so much like Tsunade in her personality!" Naruto admitted in his cheery grin.
"Who the heck is Tsunade?" Temari asked in sweat drop.
"She's my doctor, as well as my caretaker beside Iruka-sensei," Naruto answered.
"Doctor…? Are you sick?" Temari asked in concern, not because she had feeling towards the blonde, but because she was his manager in club. Sshe had obligation to take care of her athletes.
"No, it's just to make sure that I'm healthy, Temari-senpai!" Naruto said in his smile, "-and she has motherly personality that I like her sooooo much!" Naruto admitted in happy face, like a child.
Nanda (what)…he actually has mother complex!?
Temari face faulted at her new discovery about Naruto's being. She shook her head while sighing weakly, I wonder if that's the reason he likes older woman like me….-she thought in disgrace. Poor of his fans….-she thought again.
"Hey, don't slack off, Naruto! It's your turn now! 100 meters sprint!" Temari whistled loudly near Naruto, surprising him and making him jump to run.
"Ha, you can't use your eyes to check my speed!" Naruto ran again in a flash of light. Oh yeah, he's so fast if it's for running.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Uwaaaa, why the hell does the rain suddenly fall!?" Naruto protested and cursed his luck for not listening Iruka's suggest to bring an umbrella this morning before he went to school. Now after his club's activities had finished, he couldn't go home because the rain fell so hard.
Oh, shit!! I haven't call Tsunade to cancel the check up! She probably hunts me down tonight!
Naruto cursed again inwardly for forgetting the matter.
"Aaah, why do I have no luck today…," Naruto sighed in defeat. He took his cell phone and looked at it. Damn, the battery is low…I can't use it!-he cursed again inwardly while sighing again. Well, I think I'll wait until the rain lightens up…?
Naruto almost dropped his cell phone when he caught a glimpse of someone standing under the heavy rain. It's almost dark, but he was sure…it's him, the beautiful raven haired boy whom he met today.
Naruto wanted to call him, but suddenly a car appeared from the gate of his school and approached the raven haired boy. Naruto couldn't see who was in the car, but he saw the raven's expression.
Pain…fear…mixed with love….
Naruto was too preoccupied with the look on the raven's face, until he was not aware of his cell phone ringing for almost two minutes now.
It seemed the boy was aware of Naruto staring at him. He turned his face, his wet face, with the hair soaked and fell to his face. Kami…, he's really beautiful….-Naruto thought again, admiring his beauty.
The boy dropped his gaze to the ground, and entered the car.
Ah!!-Naruto seemed not realizing that he actually didn't accept the fact that the boy ignored him. Then the car drove away.
Da-tenshi (the fallen angel)…who are you actually?
