As I pulled him off the body, tears prickled in my own eyes. There in front of me was the body of Sasuke Uchiha. The dead body of Sasuke Uchiha. I never thought this day would come. Especially when we were so young. The tears poured out of my eyes, but my mask hid them. I turned my head. I can't look at this. Behind me Naruto, the one I had to pull off Sasuke was crying, covered in his blood. No, not Sasuke's. It was Pein's, the Akatsuki leader. He had destroyed Konoha before, making all of us village-less. Naruto, 18, had finally killed him at a price. Naruto was dying now, too. Kakashi was dead. Ino, Hinata, Tenten, Temari, all dead. All the boys, dead. Everyone dead.

"Ha… Was I doomed to be alone." I said, to my self as a statement, turning from

Naruto. I already tried to heal him. No dice.

"Don't say that, Sakura." Naruto said to me, voice laced with pain. He chuckled a little, stopping to cough. Cough blood. I turned back to him.

"But it is true." I said and took off my mask. I walked up to him, crouching to his level. He was going to die in such little time. I kissed his forehead which surprised him. His eyes turning wide, then narrowing back to normal, he smiled. "You deserve that, Naruto… I'm sorry for the past. I was such an ass." I said to him, softly. Again he chuckled.

"No… That was Sai's job." He coughed again, some speckled her face. Wiping it off, she also laughed. "I forgive you. I'm sorry, too. I couldn't save anyone…" He said, tears coming to his eyes again. Sakura wiped them away.

"No need for that to be forgave. I couldn't either." I smiled a fake smile.

'But! You're the one who is going to be alone! Don't smile!" His voice turned hoarse. Again, a cough. I frowned, the face to use at the cemetery of many friends. Yet, none were to be buried. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell." His voice was getting quieter. I checked his vital signs. Standing, I turned. "What?" He asked confused.

"You're going to die in a minute. I- … I can't watch. I'm sorry, Naruto." I said and turned. A minute later, looking back, I saw Naruto's body, limp. Tears came to my eyes again. I put back on my mask and walked away.
