Sasuke and Naruto prepares for the clash, the final battle which will decide their future.
Naruto, his fully-developed Chidori in hand, and Sasuke with Amaterasu, runs as fast as they can for the clash. "Sasuke, no matter what happens; you'll always be like a brother to me" Naruto thought, tears welling up in his eyes. "Naruto, no matter what happens, you, Sakura and Kakashi-sensei will always be the most important parts of my life" Sasuke whispered, hatred escaping his eyes.
As the two best friends prepared for the clash, something got their attention, causing both of them to pause. Their beautiful, pink haired friend arrived, hands over her heart, crying like no one had ever seen before. "Guys please stop!" Sakura yelled.
Before any one of them had time to do anything, Sasuke's cursed seal reappeared, causing Sasuke to gasp in surprise. "That's impossible; it was destroyed long time ago! And he's dead! What's going on?" Sasuke said, as the seal starts to engulf Sasuke again with power.
Sasuke yelled, unable to stand the pain.
The seal caused Sasuke to sprout his hand-like wings, and his appearance the way it was when it sprouted, his lips turned black, his hair grew long, his skin turned brown along with the strange mark on his face.
Both Naruto and Sakura sense that something's going terribly wrong. As Sasuke was engulfed in the flames of power, he activated yet another Amaterasu. Except, the powers are combined with that of the cursed seal, which makes it impossible for Naruto to defeat Sasuke.
Before Sasuke could do anything else, Sakura hugged Sasuke from behind, begging him to stop.
Sasuke then remembered the last time the same thing happened to him, how his cursed seal activated, encouraging Sasuke with the urge to kill, except the seal relented when Sakura hugged him from behind, like now..
The seal relented, and disappeared forever, causing Sasuke to gasp for air, completely exhausted by the power. Sakura let go as Sasuke slowly turned back to normal. Naruto approached him, holding out his hand.
Sasuke looked up at Naruto with surprise, and finally taking hold of his hand, balancing himself to stand up. He looked down at the Earth, unsure of what to do, until Kakashi, Yamato, Sai and Team 10 came, surrounding them.
"This fight is not over" Sasuke told Naruto, causing Sakura to well up in tears again. Sasuke, turning to Sakura said "This bond is not over", surprising everyone.
Before they noticed, Sasuke disappeared, feelings of hope burning in both Sakura and Naruto's heart.
