"Sa~Su~Ke~!" a certain white haired shinobi appeared in the doorway of an abandoned building. Sasuke looked at the annoyance, exasperated.
"Lookie what I found! It's one of those mirrors that show you your most treasured person of all!" If Suigetsu was a character in a comic, his eyes would be heart shaped, Karin's as well.
"Really?" Karin exclaimed, "Show it to me, you mongrel!" Karin wacked Suigetsu upside his head and looked into the small mirror. Slowly, a face began to materialize. She squeaked in excitement when she saw that it was Sasuke's.
"You don't really need a mirror to know who it is that you truly love, do you?" Juugo glanced at Karin.
"That's just it! You could think that you love someone, but you actually have feelings for a completely different person!" Karin's face blushed, "I'm just happy to know that my feelings are true!"
Suigetsu got up slowly, as he started to use his knee as support to stand, he looked towards Sasuke, "You should try it too. I bet you've got a cutie waiting at that weak village, don't you?"
Sasuke shook his head slowly, but one face did come to mind. It was Sakura's face, but it was pained and frantic, one of his last memories of her before he abandoned their village. He turned on his hip and laid his head on a robe, with his arm adding extra support underneath. His actions had only increased Karin's enthusiasm, making her hug herself while spinning back and forth.
Suigetsu watched as Sasuke's breathing finally came to a steady in and out, "I believe that this calls for an investigation!" Suigetsu looked down at the mirror mischievously; the only thing reflecting back at him was his own face.
"That is so wrong idiot! You know that if Sasuke found out about your antics, he wouldn't be happy," Karin said, but made no move to stop him as he inched over to Sasuke's sleeping form.
"Don't be such a coward, Karin!" He held the mirror up to Sasuke's peaceful face and looked into it. Karin closed her eyes tightly and harrumphed, but opened one eye slightly and craned her neck to see. Even Juugo glanced over, curious as to whom it was that had stolen Sasuke's cold heart.
"Ah~! What the hell?" Suigetsu looked at the mirror in shock and annoyance. He was looking forward to teasing Sasuke about any school boy crushes he had formed, but the face in the mirror wouldn't allow it. Not only was the face very attractive, with its giant smile and soft locks of hair, no, that wasn't even relevant. It wasn't someone they knew, or had met. It was a stranger's face, one that could win anyone's heart. Suigetsu couldn't blame Sasuke's heart for loving this person, but there was just one problem…
"A boy!" Karin screeched in agony, waking Sasuke from his slumber. Even though Suigetsu had moved the mirror as fast as he could, Sasuke still caught a glimpse of golden yellow. He had no idea it was the mirror though, and pulled out his kunai.
"What just happened?" Sasuke's voice was firm and hastened.
"W-we were just…" Suigetsu attempted to hide the mirror behind his back, laughing nervously.
Sasuke saw the mirror and let out a breath that he had no idea he had been holding. 'What did I expect? Just now…' he thought.
"Whose face was it?" Sasuke asked.
"Just, um, nobody's face appeared…" Suigetsu looked anywhere but Sasuke's eyes.
"Liar," Sasuke accused, still shaken from the blur of hope in his heart.
Suigetsu cleared his throat and gave up, "Here," he threw the mirror to Sasuke.
Sasuke caught it and glared menacingly at his companions, glancing at the reflection. His heart melted and Naruto's image materialized, "You all saw this?" he forced his gaze away from the mirror.
They nodded slowly and Sasuke covered the mirror with a cape, "Don't think anything of it."
He rolled back into a sleeping position and slowly drifted off, leaving his companions to their own devices.
"So…" Suigetsu grabbed the wrapped up mirror, "Want to go have some fun?"
