Running away

Hello everyone!

This is a story about Sasuke and his "friends". They are on their way to a mission. Sasuke and Sakura are left behind for a couple of minutes. Sasuke is asleep and when Sakura wakes him up he finds out that Sasuke's brother Itachi is behind him with his sword in attack mode!

Disclaimer: I (IchyBud) do not own any of the characters in the story below.

THIS IS NOT, I REPEAT, NOT A SASUKE X SAKURA STORY!

Chapter 1: "I've come to kill your friends, dear brother"

Team 7 is on a mission and they are resting somewhere in the countryside.

Sasuke is sleeping under a tree and Naruto and Kakashi-sensei are gone for a couple of minutes because Kakashi has something to say to Naruto about the fights between Naruto and Sasuke. Sakura stayed with Sasuke and watches him while he's asleep.

Sasuke wakes up because he hears some noise and he opens his eyes. The first thing he saw was Sakura's face because she was looking at him very closely. Sakura scared the hell out off Sasuke and he starts yelling at her. He tries to lie down again and. "What are you looking at! Leave me alone!" He said rudely. He closed his eyes and when he almost fell asleep he woke up again because Sakura was pushing him. He looked up and saw Sakura's frightened eyes. "What is it!" He asked her. But Sakura didn't answer. "WHAT IS IT!" He tried again, only a bit louder this time. Again; No answer. Sasuke realizes that Sakura is looking behind him. So he turns around and looks at what's going on. When he looked behind he saw that Itachi was standing behind him. "How..How..?" stutters Sasuke. "I followed you" answered Itachi, finishing Sasuke's unfinished question. "No! That can't be!" Sasuke shouted. "I am here, am I not?" Itachi said smirking. "What do you want?" Sasuke asked. "I came to kill your little friends, dear little brother."

Itachi pulled his long Katana out off his belt and took his position to stab Sakura. But when Itachi tried to stab Saskura, Sasuke jumped in front of her. Sasuke fell on top of Sakura and Itachi's Katana run through Sasukes body, from his back to his stomach. Sasuke gasped out in agony and blood was running down his wound. Sakura screamed in fear and tears rolled down her face, her dress stained with blood and water (from her tears).

"Fool!" Itachi said to Sasuke, and pulled his Katana out off Sasuke's body.

Another gasp of pain erupted out of Sasuke's mouth and then he lost consciousness. His eyes filled with tears of pain while a small streak of blood slipped between his lips.

"Well if I can't hear you screaming because I hurt your friends, there is no fun in it anymore." Itachi said, and pulled his Katana full of Sasuke's blood back in his belt. And his last words were: "Have a nice day."

And there they lay, Sakura with Sasuke's lifeless body on top off hers. Sakura tried to awaken Sasuke and after a few pushes he woke up. Again the first thing he saw was Sakura's face, now blushing and her eyes still filled with tears.

Footsteps came closer and after a few seconds Naruto appeared. He saw Sasuke lying on top of Sakura and (because Naruto is in love with Sakura) he got angry, pushed Sasuke on the ground and put his hands around Sasuke's throat trying to strangle him. And because Sasuke is badly injured he couldn't make any resist and almost choked. But Sakura pushed Naruto away from Sasuke so that he could breath again (well, breath…not really because he's still injured.). "Can't you see that he's injured! BAKA! (Idiot in Japanese)." Shouted Sakura at Naruto.

"Ow! Damn, sorry Sasuke, I didn't see it." Started Naruto, apologizing with a worried face. "How?.. What happened?"

But when Naruto was saying those words Ino came running to them out of the woods.

"Hi! What are you, wide forehead girl, doing here?" Ino asked looking at Sakura with an angry face.

Nobody answered the question. Sakura walked to Ino with a blush on her cheeks and told her that Sasuke had fallen on top of her and that they lay there for a couple of seconds. Ino became as red as a tomato and became very very jealous at Sakura. But then she saw Sasuke lying on the ground and she sat down next to him and tried to comfort him. Sakura began talking about those few seconds again and a nasty fan-girl-fight started; pulling each others hair and trying to scratch each other's and shouting at each other. Meanwhile Sasuke passed out again while everyone's attention was on Sakura who had just ripped out some of Ino's hair.

Then Kakashi suddenly appeared on a tree branch looking down at the teens.

"What's going on!" Kakashi said. "Sasuke! Sakura! I want an explanation!"

"Well…" Sakura started. "Well.. uhm.. you see, I was uhm.. kind of.. looking…at Sasuke.. and then I saw this person behind him, who claimed that he was Sasuke's brother, Itachi. And I woke Sasuke and then…uhm… that man said that he came here to kill Sasuke's friends and he had this sword and he wanted to stab me with it but Sasuke jumped in front of me and his brother stabbed Sasuke instead of me and a few seconds later he was gone and Sasuke passed out."

Kakashi nodded and walked to Sasuke kneeling next to him. Ino looked worried at Sasuke's pale face. Kakashi took a look at the painful wound. Meanwhile Sakura and Naruto started a fight. "Sasuke is wounded because of you!" shouted Naruto at Sakura. "NO! That is not true! And you know it!" Sakura complained.

"You could've pushed yourself and Sasuke away!"

"There was no time for that! I would've if I could!" Shouted Sakura back.

"Hey, You two! Stop fighting and help me with Sasuke!" Kakashi said, interrupting the fight between Sakura and Naruto. "He's badly injured." Kakashi said. "We need to bring him to the hospital!" Kakashi dragged Sasuke on his shoulders and Sakura and Naruto started packing their backs. "Ino, you go back to your team, they will need you."

"Okay, but what about Sasuke? What will happen to him?" Ino asked and looked at Kakashi's shoulder trying to get a glimpse of Sasuke's face.

"I will bring him to the hospital and they will take care of him. Now go!" Said Kakashi, sick of talking.

Sasuke's P.O.V.

- "Niisan! NO! Don't kill them, PLEASE, don't kill them!..."but blood spattered around, against the walls, the floor and the ceiling. The long blood stained Katana, which Itachi held in his hands, had already hit Sasuke's Father and Mother. "NO! Tousan! Kaasan!" Sasuke Screamed. He fell on the ground and looked at his hands which were shaking like hell. Teardrops rolled down his small face and anger filled his mind. "Why, Itachi! WHY!" Sasuke stuttered.

Hate, anger and sadness mixed with each other, and came out like a punch, Sasuke ran to Itachi with his hands in front of him ready to hit Itachi real hard. "Don't screw around!" He shouted, and came in contact with his brother but Itachi was much too fast and hit Sasuke with his wrist armour in his stomach. Drool dropped out of Sasuke's mouth and he fell on the cold, bloody ground. Sasuke looked up and looked right in his dad's dead eyes. Tears filled Sasuke's eyes and he gets scared when Itachi came closer and he runs away as fast as he can.-

I opened my eyes and I realised that someone was dragging me on his shoulder. I looked behind me and saw that Kakashi was carrying me. I felled an enormous pain in my stomach and I tried to cough, but it hurt and I asked myself: "What had just happened? Was it real? Did Itachi really tried to kill Sakura? Well, the stab wound is real so it must have been real. ITACHI! YOU BASTARD!" My hands felled cold and my whole body hurt. I wanted the feeling to end but it didn't. And again flashbacks went through my thoughts. I saw Itachi again, standing with his katana next to my parents. His eyes looked cold and dark. I ripped out the flashback and tried to focus at Kakashi's feet. I wanted to say something to Kakashi, but the words wouldn't come out. I tried to move my hand and apparently Kakashi noticed it. He stopped walking and said:"Don't try to move, Sasuke. I'll bring you to a hospital." He started walk again and I saw Sakura and Naruto staring at me. They wanted to say something, I could see it in their eyes, but just like me their words wouldn't come out too. I felled dizzy again and my view turned into darkness. My eyes were closed again. In my dreams I saw lots of things passing by, I saw my parents the day before they died, I saw my brother laughing at me and I saw Naruto, Kakashi and Sakura. I don't remember much from that dream. And actually I wanted to forget it.

When I woke up I noticed that I was lying in a hospital bed, there was nobody in the room. The room was empty; there was only a small vase with one flower in it, standing on a small table next to the bed.

"I need to get away. If Itachi returns and finds Sakura, Naruto and Kakashi he will kill them. That can never happen! NEVER! But I can't move very well. My legs are hurting a lot and I think my arm broke when Naruto pushed my off Sakura. Damn! Why? I hate you Itachi! Perhaps if I walk away Itachi won't hurt them anymore. I'll go to some other place. And when I've killed Itachi I can go back to this town again. Yes! That is what I need to do. But still, I can't move neither walk. What should I do? I need to heal. Perhaps that woman I've heard of can help me; That Tsunade, she seems to be an excellent healer. Yes, I'll ask Kakashi if he can get her here as soon as possible."

I woke up from my thoughts because someone was coming in. It was Sakura. She smiled at me and I could see on her face that she was happy to see me. But I was NOT happy to see her. I really needed to get out here as soon as I could, but I reacted normally and I smiled back. She didn't talk, I thought that was very strange, she normally talks to me like her life depends on it. But this time she didn't, I looked at her face and I saw that she had some scratches on it and her hair missed some locks. Her eyes were half shut, like she was tired. "How long have I been lying here?" I asked. And she replied: "Just for 2 hours I think." She was happy to hear my voice and smiled again at me. "I..." She said, but the door opened again and this time Kakashi and Naruto stepped in the room. "How are you doing?" Naruto started, and he walked to the other side of the room to get a chair. "Sasuke? Tell me what happened." Kakashi said and he looked at me with frowning eyes, he sat down on the chair which Naruto just had placed next to my bed. "HEY!.." Naruto shouted and he got red. "That was supposed to be my chair!" "Yes I know, and thank you very much for saving it for me." Kakashi responded. "Well Sasuke? Are you going to tell me or not?" "What did I have to tell him? He knew everything from Sakura and Naruto, I expect." "But you already know what happened. Sakura and Naruto must have told you." I claimed, and looked at Sakura and Naruto. "Yes, but I want to hear your story too." Kakashi said. So I told him my view of everything that had happened. But I didn't have much to say because half of the time I was unconsciousness. After hearing my story, Kakashi lend back on his chair and looked to the ceiling. "I need to ask Kakashi if he can get Tsunade over here to heal me." And I decided to ask: "Kakashi, can I speak to you alone for a couple of seconds?" I looked at Naruto and Sakura hoping that they would cooperate. "Yes, of course" Kakashi said, and smiled. "But, why can't you say it in front of us?" Naruto noticed. "Aren't we that important to you?"

I turned my head to Kakashi, hoping he would agree with me and send Naruto and Sakura away so that I did not had to answer that question.

"Please leave us." Kakashi said polite and gestured that Naruto and Sakura had to leave the room. I saw Sakura's disappointed eyes, she and Naruto walked out of the room without saying anything. When the door was shut Kakashi looked at me with a worried face that I'd never saw before. "What is it that you don't want to tell me in front of your friends?" He asked. "I'd better get straight to the point and handle this quickly." I thought. "Could you bring Tsunade-sama to me, so that she can heal me? I want to start training as soon as possible." I explained. "Why is that? You can rest a bit in here, it's good for you." Kakashi respond and looked at me like I was crazy. "Please, It's important for me!" I begged, and hoped that he said yes. "Okay, you are so eager to learn. I understand your feelings. I'll send someone to visit her and who takes her to Konoha." He said, and stood up from his chair ready to walk through the door. "Thank you, Kakashi." I said, and lay down again. I felt tired and wanted to sleep. I looked at the ceiling and thought about what happened today. After a few minutes I felled that my eyes were getting heavy and that darkness took hold of me.

-"Niisan, can you help me out with shuriken training after school?" Sasuke asked and looked at his brother who was packing some bags. "I'm busy, ask father" Itachi replied. "But he said that you're better with shurikens, and I think that too. You always treat me like I'm nuisance, brother." Sasuke said, and looked disappointed at his brother. Itachi gestured that Sasuke had to come closer and when he did Itachi pointed out his finger and taps Sasuke on his forehead. "Ouch." Sasuke reacted. "Forgive me, Sasuke. Maybe another time. I have no time to help you out today." Sasuke looked up to his brother and a small red bruise appeared on Sasuke's forehead. "You always say, 'forgive me, Sasuke,' and hit my forehead. And you don't ever help me out, not just today." His brother stands up and walks out of the room.-

I opened my eyes and looked up to the ceiling again. My memories about my clan and the day Itachi killed the clan were memories I wanted to forget, but that day was so confusing and horrifying that I could never rip it out off my thoughts and dreams. I looked out of the window and saw that it was already night and that dark clouds covered the moon.

Suddenly I heard some footsteps, and the door opened. A dark shaped man came in the room. I couldn't see his face. So I decided to ask his name. "Who are you?" I asked. But he didn't answer. I felled a cold shudder on my back and I tried to sit straight up. The man came closer, and I still couldn't see his face. He did another step, the clouds moved away from the moon, and a slight beam of moonlight passed the eyes of the man. I looked at the eyes and noticed that they were the same as mine. "Uchiha Itachi!" I shouted. And my brother came closer. "Shut up." He said and stopped at the side of my bed. I pushed away the blankets and tried to stand but my legs were still hurting. I fell on the ground and my head banged against the wall. Itachi walked to my feed and dragged me to the other side of the room. He pulled me up and pushed me against the wall. His hands were around my throat. I gasped for air and tried to struggle. Then Itachi took a kunai out of his pocket and held it against my throat. I couldn't scream, I couldn't fight back, this was the end, my plan had failed. "If he kills me he'll find Naruto and Sakura and he will kill them next." I thought.

Niisan means Brother.

Kaasan means mother

Tousan means father.

that's all for now. My next chapter will take a little time.I thinkI can update in atleast a month
