My lunges burned for air, my throat on fire, my legs ached and all I could do was run. My team had already died, shot in the head or chest, every one of them. I ran with my black and blood stained 45 in my hands. I had gotten shot twice, one in the leg and one in the chest. The only things keeping me alive was my bullet proof vest and the fact that the only time that I had stopped to breathe was behind something solid. My leg had stopped bleeding a while ago, but the pain in my chest still stung the tiniest bit. The gun fire stopped and I looked around the corner of the pillar where I was hiding. I could see the floor was soaked in blood, I looked behind me and saw Sasuke was breathing as hard as I was, his face was blood stained but, he smiled at me, before he got shot in the back of the head.
I sat up abruptly in my bed in a cold sweat. Across the hotel room I could see Sasuke breathing in and out peacefully. I walked up to the wide window next to the door, felt the cold glass under my finger tips, watched as my breath fogged up the night sky that was only centimeters away from me. I turned towards the door and close the space between us. Sasuke turned over in his sleep as the cold midnight air swept into the warm room. I stepped out of the room and gasped as a huge wave of chill ran up my spine, making me shiver. Stepping out into the open I saw no lights on in the city, not one. I clutched my black gun as hard as I could. A stick broke, shattering the silence. I spun around and pointed my gun in the direction in which the sound had come from.
" What are you doing out here? It's freezing." I knew the voice very well.
" I thought you were still asleep."
" Ame, come back inside, you'll get sick."
" I keep telling you not to worry about me. You really suck at listening."
" Ame." The young Uchiha warned.
" Sasuke. Hey, look I can say your name too!" He sighed and took a step towards me.
" Quit playing."
" B-but, I loooove playing with you!" Another step. I stood my ground.
" Put the gun down and come inside." He commanded sternly and all I did was shake my head stubbornly
" Sasuke, you know me better than that. You know that I'm not going to do something to tell me to. You really should take your own advice on occasion."
" Fine but, if you get sick I'm not taking care of you."
" Fair enough." I replied while trying not to smile out of pride becuase I won yet, miffed as to why he hadn't fought harder to get me back inside, something wasn't right. Or maybe he just didn't care. What ever the case was I walked through the city of silence before I saw a person sitting on a roof top. His red hair moved with the wind, his teal eyes shown bright through the darkness. I kept walking, every few minutes I looked over my shoulder out of pure paranoia, through the sleeping city, the song One Week by The Bare Naked Ladies running through my head. I finally got back to the hotel room and saw Sasuke standing at the other side of the room when I walked in.
" I wanted to make sure you were okay." He pushed himself off the wall and started walking up to me, again I stood my ground. He walked past me and up to his bed.
" You know, I can take care of myself."
" Goodnight Ame." With a sigh I went to bed and the same damn dream was played again and again, like a movie on loop.
