A Peace of Death - Naruto Oneshot, by (ME!)

Disclaimer: Naruto belongs to Kishimoto Masashi-sama

Uzumaki Naruto's mask cracked with every insult. He was sick of the village, sick of the villagers, sick of being betrayed. He clenched his fists as he watched Sakura cradling her unconscious Sasuke, blaming Naruto for almost killing him. Killing him? 'Sasuke is drenched in my blood' thought Naruto, 'from when he shoved the god damn chidori in my chest!' Sasuke was the one who tried to kill him. If he hadn't countered with his Rasengan Naruto would be dead. Then what? Uchiha duckbutt wouldn't be back in Konoha.

He dared himself to look up, only to see the look of disgust and hatred in the eyes of his so-called comrades, friends and family. What was he to them? Were the memories spent with them tossed aside like garbage? Of course in the heated situation Naruto had mistook the rookie nine's, and Tsunade's looks to be for him, when actually they were intended for Sakura, the villagers and the blood drenched Sasuke. But no amount of talking or explaining would do him any good. It was too late.

The invisible mask shattered into pieces and turned to ash in midair as it was blown away by the wind. Naruto chuckled softly, louder and louder, until Konoha echoed with the sound of hysteric laughter. It wasn't an evil laughter; no it was far from evil. Naruto was laughing at himself. How foolish of him to have shed his blood for Konoha, how foolish he was. He was sick of the village, sick of the villagers, sick of being betrayed and that's when he decided; the Uzumaki Naruto everyone knew, was gone.

Silence filled the air. Villagers shook in fear from the sudden laughter as Naruto slowly took off his headband, extended his arm foward and dropped it. All eyes followed the fall of the headband and in the stillness of life only the sound of the cold metal against the cement floor was heard. It echoed in the ears of Konoha. Naruto turned and casually walked out the gate. Tsunade finally escaped from her trance and managed to call out to him, but Naruto didn't stop. He raised his right hand as goodbye, "sorry, baaa-chan, Uzumaki Naruto's dead."

How peaceful it was to die.
