Prologue:
What goes on in the mind of an Uchiha who lies unconscious on the floor after having a sword stabbed right into his heart? A mysterious woman appears to bring a memory to him… a dream that would set his heart right to where it rightly belongs.
He dreamt to bring his friend back to Konoha, he dreamt to become a Hokage who could save his beloved village. Nonetheless, he was helpless against death, death of his mate, a friend, his love, his companion, though he survived.
She thought she loved him. She thought she loved him not. But who was to say a girl's heart could not change due to the passage of time? And circumstances slowly poked deep into her heart and she felt a feeling of tenderness towards him. His kindness, thoughtfulness and strength mesmerized her. And when she thought she was just saying she loved him to fool herself, she then realised, albeit later, that that was double fooling herself. She was too hurt by him and the heart started to lean towards the other.
And in the end even in the moment of her death, she wondered if she really loved him. But she was satisfied she managed to save him.
The tragedy of Team Seven from Konoha - Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto and Haruno Sakura.
