Chapter One~
Losing his team was the hardest thing that Sasuke Uchiha could ever do, but it was ever so necessary. The group was dragging them behind, so he booked them in a hotel room, and left the place in the middle of the night. Now it was a year later, and he had never seen them since. Though there were advantages of giving the slip to his old Team Taka, there were also disadvantages. Although he wouldn't ever admit it, even to himself, the members of the team grew on him.
There was Karin, annoying (So like Sakura) and having absolutely no skills at all besides her natural born sensing chakra talent, was the one who supported him. He didn't know it, but if it wasn't for her support, there would've been a fifty-fifty chance that he would have quit his ambition.
Secondly, there was Suigetsu. He was stupid and dumber than Naruto, per say, and a weirdo with his water like body, but he was a person that Sasuke could almost count as a friend... almost. Suigetsu and him made a great team, and the water boy was willing to sacrifice himself in more than one ways for Sasuke.
Lastly, there was Jugo, the monstrously large young man who was more like a younger brother to Sasuke. He looks up to the Uchiha like no other, and that had definitely affected the Sharingan user in a strange but positive way.
Needless to say, the entire team looked up to Sasuke, and to step away from them and run, not a lot of people could be so cold-hearted to do to a group of people that would do anything, including giving up their life for him. But he did it, Sasuke Uchiha did it and it was as easy as swallowing a grape, for real. Although it passes smoothly, like the round fruit down into a mouth, it leaves your throat throbbing and hurting for a while. And just that pain, Sasuke's regret eventually passed away, though there were times that he regrets it whole-heartedly. Like today, for example.
Normally, running away from hunter-nins wouldn't be so difficult, but after a whole day of training non-stop and to his limit, Sasuke wasn't too into it. He had used the last of his chakra and had no will or energy to kill the bastards the Leaf sent. Deciding to go to the market to buy some fruit was a mistake, least to say, for the youngest living Uchiha had bumped into the missing-nins on the way.
At first he didn't realize there was anybody suspicious around; the exhaustion made it hard for him to detect unusual chakras. Later on though, Sasuke became skeptical that the couple on vacation had just happened to be going where ever he was going, and confronted them. That, was the stupid move because that started the chase between nin and missing nin. And now, the onyx eyed seventeen year old was wondering absentmindedly of how his team would back him up if they were here now.
Suigetsu, stubborn and dense, would jump headfirst into a fight with them to distract the people. Jugo would stay behind a little while into the running to help out Suigetsu (As he usually like to play around with nins and underestimate them, ultimately nearly ending his life) while Karin would sense all of their chakras and pick out the best hiding place in a hundred mile radius. Suigetsu and Jugo would eventually find that place by sundown and they'd settle for the day in a nearby inn.
That's what I'll do, Sasuke thought as soon as he realized he lost the hunter-nins. There should be an inn in a village packed with tourists like this. And so there was.
AN: I know it's not to much of a beginning, but I promise the next chapter will be a heck lot better! :D Thank you for reading :)
