A few years passed since his parting from 'home', this last real meeting with 'baka'. Somehow he managed to keep himself from missing it, with a mind frame of 'The less I think about it, the better'. But what need had he had to think of the village? Since leaving he simply followed his goals. No. Not goals. His future. 1. Take revenge and defeat his brother. 2. Revive his clan. That's right, ex-Konoha shinobi, S-class rogue of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke.
Said rogue paused on the cold dirt floor of the forest, he hasn't gained any new leads on Itachi's where-about for a while causing him to have the need to stop off in an out-of-the-way lodge making it so he wouldn't be found before he finds Itachi. Rustling could be heard from a North-Westernly direction moments before a black haired kunoichi pounced out from behind a nearby tree, landing next to Sasuke. "Shit! Duck!" She cursed, pushing Sasuke's head down to avoid a small barrage of shuriken. Sasuke forced his head back up, despite it taking some force to move his head up from the kunoichi's hand. When he looked up he noticed the kunoichi was merely a strange looking girl. She had long black hair with a spiked ponytail, her bangs being almost identical to Sasuke's. Even her skin colour seemed rather similar to his. She was noticeably about a year younger than Sasuke and has one obvious feature. A black bandage that covered both of her eyes.
Sasuke felt a pang. A small feeling of being slightly impressed by the girl struck him as he watched her leap out to confront her enemies. Her foes being two-men of average builds, probably with the skills of chunin at the least yet it took the girl only seconds to fly at them with a swarm of kicks and punches, rendering the two unconscious.
The girl moved the two unconscious bodies over to a tree, sitting them up against it before sighing and heading back over to the rogue. As she stood a few metres away from him the corners of her lips turned up, until she was eventually wearing a large grin. "Sorry about that" She let out the awkward kind of laugh as she rubbed the back of her head, "Hn." Sasuke let out a near grunt as he finally stood from when he was before forced to crouch in the Kunoichi's attempt to save his head from the barrage of shuriken. He then noticed a head-band dangling out of the girl's trouser pocket. Carefully he eyed the headband; the only thing he could clearly make out was the slash she had carved through the symbol. "You…" Sasuke started "Are a rogue?" His hand slowly manoeuvred to the hilt of his katana in case of the unexpected, but the girl just laughed, "Yeah, kinda" Sasuke took a step backwards, putting a hand to his empty forehead. This girl was so similar to someone, so much alike the blonde haired baka. Yet she seemed so different, seeming somewhat strong than the blonde haired doofus in Sasuke's eyes. No. Baka wasn't someone he could allow himself to think of so easily.
