Face-to-face with the man of her dreams,
Tears in her eyes gleamed.

Her skin shone in the pale moonlight,
Her jade eyes sparkled with delight.

"I knew, you will come back..",
Her pink lips gaily spat.

He lifted his gaze,
Brought his eyes to her lovely face.

Onyx into emerald did stare,
"I am not back, my dear...

For revenge means the world to me..
To kill HIM..is my destiny."

Her body shivered with anticipation,
It was killing her already...the wait for his action.

Without any reluctance or hesitation,
the avenger's grip tightened upon his weapon.

The dark dance soon began,
None of them paused for a breath.

For a split second, she lost her balance..
It was enough for him to end the sequence.

His sword went through her heart,
She chocked..as he tore it apart.

Her green orbs, initially shut tight..
then she looked at him, with all her might.

He was still handsome to her.

He was still her Sasuke-kun...

Even as she struggled for breath,
embracing her silent, slow, painful death.

Looking at his dead teammate and friend,

Tears in his eyes appeared.

"I am sorry, Sakura..
I can't love..
I can only hate.."

...No, Sasuke-kun, you are not to blame.
It was my fate.
