What Was Her Name?
A/N: This is a pretty short songfic about Sakura and Sasuke. This is after two and a half years…you know, the time skip. You can figure out the rest. Remember that I don't own Naruto or Green Day's "Whatsername". Enjoy :)
Thought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to only be a dream
Sasuke was walking down a typical sidewalk in Konoha. It was two and a half years since he's reunited with his team that he could hardly recall. The one he missed most was the witty female ninja on his team…but he couldn't remember her name. He all of a sudden saw her walking across the street, the opposite way. He called out, "Hey!", but she didn't say a thing. A few seconds later, he woke up, knowing that now…he was dreaming about her…again. It was the third time this week he dreamt about her.
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
He got out of bed, and remembered the memories of the pink-haired girl. She took care of him years ago during the Chunin exams…and she was worried about him because of the curse mark that lay upon him. He went to his small dining table to eat breakfast, and wondered if he had any photos of her to jog his memory and remember her name. He couldn't remember…after those two and a half years he trained with Orochimaru. It then popped into his head: before he left for Orochimaru…he burned his memories of her and his team with one of his fire jutsus.
"I wonder if she's okay…" Sasuke thought.
Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old what's his face?
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
Sasuke walked outside to take his morning walk around the Sound Village, to the forest where he trained with Orochimaru. He thought and thought about her again and again….her pretty face and how smart she was. She was there for him…and he never appreciated it. He felt sorry for himself to feel this way about her. He first thought that
"I wonder if she had feelings for that blonde-haired boy I used to know…" Sasuke thought again. Because he trained so much with Orochimaru, he forgot his friends and comrades.
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember, whatever
It seems like forever ago
The regrets are useless in my mind
She's in my head, I must confess
The regrets are useless in my mind
She's in my head, so long ago
(Go, go go…)
He couldn't take it anymore. Sasuke grabbed his hair in regret and agony. She was in his head. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't remember to love…it was so long ago. It was only two and a half years ago…and it feels like so long ago. He couldn't regret coming here anymore. She's in her head. He couldn't do anything…
"Sasuke, is there something the matter? You seem more agonized than before," Orochimaru asked. "It seems more amusing to watch like this than before…"
"She…She's in my head…" Sasuke strained. "Forgive me sir, but I have to leave."
"Ssssss…." Orochimaru hissed hotly. He didn't say a word when Sasuke ran back. "He'll come back…when he's ready for more power."
"I have to remember her name…" Sasuke said to himself. "She was beautiful…and I regret leaving her…and abusing her."
Sasuke soon went home, but the curse mark started to throb on his neck. He held it in even more pain…and grimaced. He didn't know what to do…he wanted to see her again…just once more.
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you, but not the time
"Forget about her…you don't need her to kill Itachi," Orochimaru sternly confronted. It was at night, when the moon was shining and the stars were bright. "You must forget…"
"S-Sakura…" Sasuke said softly.
"Who?"
"That was it! Her name was Sakura!" Sasuke said aloud.
Orochimaru slapped Sasuke across the face so hard he ran into a large tree. Sasuke's head was now turning…he remembered one of his teammates…Naruto…and his teacher…Kakashi…but his other teammate…was a blur.The Next Morning
Sasuke woke up once again…but this time…he didn't dream of the girl that he needed in his life. He all of a sudden saw someone next to his bed. It was a female ninja with pink, short hair. She wore her leaf headband around her hair, and she wore red a red outfit. A blonde, older woman wearing green stood behind her. "Sasuke?" The pink-haired girl said.
"Who…who are you?" Sasuke asked.
THE END
A/N: That last part was a little difficult to do…but yeah, that's the end.
