Moving On==Prologue, The Lost Book
DISCLAIMER: I in anyway do not own these characters, though that would be amazing. =D So this is just the prologue, let me know what you think and Chapter One will go up, for I already have it...I just like suspense. =DDDD
"Please, don't leave..."
"I have to avenge my family."
"Sasuke, just
think about this. We could help you!"
"I don't need
your help! I need to do this alone."
"Sasuke, I..."
before Sakura could finish her sentence, Sasukes mouth came crashing
down on her.
"I know," he whispered on her lips, "I'll come back to you."
And with that, Uchiha Sasuke, has disappeared into the night.
That's how it should have happened. Everything would have been okay. He wouldn't have joined up with the Sound Ninja, Orochimaru, or Akatsuki, He would have realized, once he found Itachi, Danzo had them all fooled from the beginning. Sasuke, nor Itachi would have died. But all of that happened withing a three year span, including Pein's attack, leaving Konoha in rubble.
So here we are, one year after all of this, one long, lonely, silent year and I am still crying. Part of me wishes still that at any moment he is going to burst into my apartment door, grab me by the hand, tell me he loves me, and kiss me. All of that is pure wishful thinking. I saw the body, tried to save him, pounded on his lifeless chest, hoping, just hoping if I hit hard enough his heart would start again.
Wishful thinking.
It's all I know how to do anymore. Even now, his face, so bruised, and his body, so broken, haunts my dreams. I don't sleep, I barely eat, and I've become more violent and on edge. Sometimes its just all too much.
knock, knock, knock.
I stood up from my black sofa to go answer the door. Before I could open it, it flung open and hit me in the nose. My hand flew up to cover my nose as I yelled.
"What the hell are you doing?! You just don't burst--"
I was suddenly cut off by a bag that was shoved into my face.
"Oh, sorry Sakura-chan, I didn't see you there!" said an all too cheery voice.
"Narutoooooo!"
When he got one look at my face, his suddenly turned apologetic.
"Sorry. I thought you were either sleeping or not home, so I was just going to leave this on your table." Naruto explained.
"I still have foodyou brought over everyday this week...not everyone eats like you, ya know?" I said taking the bag and gesturing for him to come inside.
Naruto got a weird look on his face.
"Sakura, we need to talk. Everyone is against what I am about to give you, but you have a right to know."
I looked at him oddly. "Okay, what is it?"
Naruto reached into his back pocket and pulled out a black, leather bound, notebook with the Uchiha Clan symbol and UCHIHA SASUKE clearly etched into the front.
"You will find all you need in here. Read it when you are ready."
I gasped as he sat the heavy book into my shaking hands. I started to cry. Naruto leaned over, kissed my cheek, and left.
I opened the cover and began to read.
