Anthem Of The Angels

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Naruto, the OC's in this fic, or the song "Anthem of the Angels" Naruto belongs to Masashi Kishimoto, the OC's belong to kuriaka (a friend of mine), and "Anthem of the Angels" belongs to Breaking Benjamin.

In a torrential downpour, hundreds of bodies litter the blood soaked ground of Konoha, The Hidden Leaf Village. With every leap and bound, Shinsui Uchiha's sense of dread grew exponentially. When he reached his destination, his heart skipped a beat, wife, Gihana Hyuga/Uchiha and their two-year-old son, Shinjiro Uchiha were laying on the ground, motionless. He thought they were dead, but when he checked their pulse, they were alive, but barely.

Shinsui took his wife and son to Konoha's General Hospital. The doctors told him if he had brought them in any later, that they would have died.

They were in critical condition for two days, before passing away on the third.

White walls surround us

No light will touch your face again

Rain taps the windows as we sleep among the dead

Days go on forever but I have not left your side

We can chase the dark together

If you go then so will I

When Kuriaka, his brother-in-law told Shinsui they were dead, he couldn't believe it, and he wouldn't until he saw them, with a white sheet over their bodies.

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Shinsui thought he saw movement, but it was his mind trying to deal with the grief. Gihana and Shinjiro's skin were pale and cold to the touch.

Cold light above us

Hope fills the heart then fades away

Skin white as winter as the sky returns to grey

Days go on forever but I have not left your side

We can chase the dark together

If you go then so will I

Even after seeing their dead bodies, Shinsui couldn't let them go. They were his family, and as strong as he was, he couldn't save them.

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

I keep holding on to you

But I can't bring you back to life

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Shinsui walks to his house, his normally bright and life filled eyes, now dead and empty.

You're dead alive

You're dead alive

You're dead alive

He didn't even realize enemy ninja were in his home until he was stabbed in the back with a kuni. As he fell to the floor, time seemed to slow to a crawl, he knew that he was dying and wouldn't be found until it was too late. He thought about his wife and son. "Gihana, Shinji, I'll be with you soon."

There is nothing left of you

I can see it in your eyes

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

I keep holding on to you

But I can't bring you back to life

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Sing the anthem of the angels

And say the last goodbye

Sing the anthem of the angels
