Itachi's Sacrifice

Chapter 1

It was a rainy day in Konoha & a young raven-haired boy was sitting on the dock. He didn't have

any friends cause the boy carried a dark secret. He was the host of the Nine-Tailed Fox. The young boy's

name is Sasuke Uchiha. Sasuke was always a good kid, he was good at his ninja skills but all the kids at

the academy were afraid of him. Because of that, Sasuke always kept to himself. He tried so many times

to make friends but all the kids would run away from him in fear. Sasuke thought, "Will I ever have any

friends that aren't afraid of me?" Sasuke put his head on his knees and just cried. That's really all he ever

did was cry. He rarely smiled & when he did it was always a fake one.

As he sat there & cried, a young blonde-haired boy was walking by with his umbrella. His name was

Naruto Uzumaki. Like Sasuke, Naruto didn't have any friends either. As he walked by, he saw Sasuke sitting

in the pouring rain crying. Naruto decided to go up to him and ask him what was wrong. "Hey, why are you

sitting out here in the pouring rain?" Sasuke looks up & sees that it's Naruto. He dries his eyes so he can see

a little better. Sasuke replies, "I just wanted to be alone." Naruto then helps Sasuke up. "If you continue to stay

out here you'll get sick. Come on, you can dry off at my place."

Sasuke smiled and they both walked to Naruto's place. Meanwhile, in another land, the mysterious group

known as the Akatsuki were planning too take control of all the Bijuu. Among the members was Itachi Uchiha,

Sasuke's older brother. He joined the Akatsuki after he murdered his entire clan, leaving only his beloved little

brother Sasuke alive. After the meeting, Itachi goes to his room. He's starting to have second thoughts about the

Akatsuki's plans to capture all the Jinchuriki hosts, since one of the hosts is he beloved little brother Sasuke. he

never hated Sasuke, in fact he loved him more than a brother should. He as in love with Sasuke. Itachi thoght, "Will

Sasuke ever love me the same way?"

Back in Konoha, Sasuke is dry and wearing of Naruto's clothes. Naruto made some ramen and now they are

both eating. Sasuke didn't talk much but that didn't bother Naruto. He'll wait for Sasuke to start opening up on his

own. He knew Sasuke had trouble making friends all his life, so he wasn't going to pressure him. After they ate,

Sasuke went to bed. Naruto thought as he went to his room, "Maybe he'll want to talk tomorrow." and with that,

Naruto went to bed. Later that night, Sasuke started to toss and turn. "No, niisan! Don't kill mom & dad!, They

didn't do anything wrong!" Naruto heard Sasuke screaming in his sleep. He got up and went over to Sasuke,

shaking him awake. "Sasuke, wake up? You're having a nightmare." Sasuke jolted awake. He was covered in

sweat and shaking. Sasuke sat up, breathing heavily from the nightmare. "I'm ok Naruto. I'm used to these night-

mares." "Do you want to talk about them?" Sasuke looked at Naruto with surprise in his eyes. No one has ever

asked him about the nightmares he's been having for years. Sasuke just threw his arms around Naruto & cried.

Of course this shocked Naruto a bit but he put his arms around Sasuke and held him close. Naruto layed down,

pulling Sasuke down onto his chest. Sasuke cried himself to sleep but soon found comfort & safety in his new

friends arms.
