IT'S MY FAULT

Death

My name is Sakura Haruno, I'm a ninja of the hidden leaf village, and I killed my best friend.

I felt warm blood trickling down my face as I slid down the rock. The threatening form of the Sound ninja looming glaring at me from the other side of the clearing. I am a fool! I should have listened, if only I had listened, then none of this would never have happened.

His kunai flashed. I couldn't move.

It rushed closer. I closed my eyes, there was no escape now. I'm sorry Naruto.

I could hear the whistling as it sliced through the air. Naruto!

"Naruto!" I cried. Screwing my eyes shut tighter I waited for the blow that would end it all.

It never came.

Shaking, I slowly opened my eyes, and gasped. I could see the kunai, and the hand that held it, but not the body, for a figure in an orange jumpsuit stood between them. "S-stay, away from S-Sakura-Chan! Touch her again a-and I'll kill you!"

"N-Naruto! No!" I whispered, tears beginning to run down my bloodied cheeks.

"Ha-ha! You can try you fool! But at the end of this her corpse will lie with yours!"

I watched the blood gush on to the floor as Naruto raised his fist, it started to glow red. "NO!" he roared as he smashed it into the mans face, ripping the Sound ninjas arm from his stomach as he sent him flying across the clearing. The figure collided into a tree with a sickening thud and didn't move again.

Naruto turned clutching the terrible rip in his stomach, a painful smile on his face. The blood rushing from the wound stained his clothes and dripped from his fingers. "No! Naruto!" I sobbed. Naruto coughed, blood poured down his chin. He raised a bloody hand towards me, his breath coming in short, choking, ragged gasps. "S-Sak-ura- ch-chan, I… I lo…" his brilliant blue eyes clouded over, the sparkle died.

Time stood still as he began to tumble backwards. I reached out my hand to him, tears pouring down my face. "Naruto."

His blood seemed to float in the air.

I stepped towards him, reaching for his still outstretched hand.

His eyes closed for the last time.

"Naruto!"

His body hit the ground.

I screamed, "NARUTO!"
