Sasuke's Pain

Sasuke walked into the Leaf's entrance. It had been so long since he had been here. The familer smell came to his nose. A soft noise left his mouth as he walked toward the Hokage's office. Izumo and Kotetsu stared in shock as Sasuke came into view.

"Is that..." Izumo started.

Kotetsu nodded. "It is."

Sasuke walked to them. "Take me to the Hokage."

"S-sure." Izumo said.

Izumo and Kotetsu walked him to the Tsunade's office. They kept glancing back at him.

"I don't want to fight anymore, I'm through with this stupid revenge thing."

"Lady Tsunade's still pissed at you for what you did, warning you ahead of time." Kotetsu muttered quietly.

Sasuke didn't say a word, just followed them into the office.

Izumo opened the door.

Sasuke tensed slightly.

The sound of a glass shaddering made Sasuke know his presense known.

"Sasuke Uchiha." Tsunade said.

"L-Lady T-Tsunade." Sasuke said quietly, looking down at the floor.

"What's your reason?"

"I'm through, just do as you want to me. I don't care."

"I'll have Kakashi or someone else watch over you for a week, if you do well, I'll let you become part of the village once more."

Sasuke nodded. "Anything you want."

The week that past was not a good one. Sasuke fell silent and stayed at his old home. Ninja watched him, but looked at him in disust. The last day into the week, Sasuke went to see Tsunade again, and tell her he wanted to just be left alone. It was there he heard Sakura.

"Why the hell is Sasuke back?!" Sakura screamed.

"I, please, listen Sakura." Tsunade said.

"No you listen, get rid of him before he does it again!" Sakura appeared and left without a look at Sasuke.

"Sasuke..." Tsunade said.

Sasuke smiled sadly. "It's fine, I understand. I'm just a burden." Sasuke left.

"Sasuke..." Tsuande whispered.

Naurto ran into her office. "Is it true?!"

"Is what true?"

"Sasuke's back!"

"Yes, he just left back to his house."

Naruto ran off.

"Wait!"

But Naruto was already gone.

"Oh, no." Tsunade moaned.

Naruto ran to Sasuke's house, excided Sasuke was back. When he opened the door, he froze in shock. The house was too quiet. Naruto ran through the house, despertly looking for Sasuke. What he found, made him sink to his knees.

Sasuke was on the floor, his arms slashed opened as blooded flowed out. Naruto couldn't move, he couldn't breath. He could only feel tears on his cheek. Sasuke was going to die if he didn't do something, but what?
