Darkness in my heart...
Chapter one: Avenger
He was a dobe. A complete idiot. The lowest in our class. People like him don't make it far. Yet...
"I'm going to be Hokage!"
Heh. Yeah. He was an idiot.
It's strange how you can feel close to someone without even saying a kind word to each other.
"You dobe."
"Shut up Sasuke! Just you wait! I'll be better then you one day!"
Always having goals for himself. No matter how stupid they may be, he was always determined to accomplish them. Sometimes... he even succeeded.
"People like him don't care about anything. He didn't have any parents so he thinks he can get away with anything..."
He was lucky. He didn't have anything. He had nothing to lose. When he did... he fought his hardest to protect the ones he cared for. If only...
"hate me. detest me. Live in an unsightly way. Run. Run and cling to life.."
I could never protect the ones i cared for... not even now...
"Naruto! Something weird is wrong with him. I'll handle him! You go help Sakura!"
"No. You can't fight him. Your to injured. Leave this to me."
"but..."
The look he gets. The looks he gets when he's fighting for someone he cares for... It's like nothing else. When he gets that look, you hope to whatever god there is that he wins.
I remember when i first met him. When i first really met him. I was at the pier. Back then... I thought there was no way i could live up to my brother. I dont know how long I sat there. I don't know how often i cryed. But i do remember turning around and there he was. Just looking off into the distance. He had a sad look. It seemed to refelct everything I was feeling. He looked down at me and did that stupid grin of his and walked off. I didn't know how long he had been standing there. But when he looked down and smiled, i felt regenerated. I got back to my feet and ran home, grinning all the way.
Why couldn't have things stayed that way?
"He will come to me. He will come in search of power."
That man... thing almost... he ruined everything... I let him ruin everything.
"You can't even put a scratch on my head band!"
He was my best friend.
"If you want my kind of power, there is something you must do first."
He was an over achiver.
"I will be Hokage!"
He was...
"Are you ok? Mr. Scardy cat!"
what was he exactly?
That day in the forest. That look in his eyes. it... It wasn't the look i wanted to see. Even on his cheerful face it was still... still... evil. And that day at the valley... that red chakra... His eyes, slit and blood red. He was on all fours. Whiskers formed on his cheeks and behind him... tails... how many were there? Let's see... there were... one... two... six... eight... nine... there was nine tails...
nine tails...
heh. I'm almost not surpirsed.
He was kyuubi. and i...
"That's Uchiha! Uchiha Sasuke!"
"Isn't he the only survivor of..."
"I am an avenger!"
Heh. I'm nobody. Nobody but an avenger. I have no name. I am only existing for revenge. What other reason is there?
"I'm going to be Hok..."
heh... What a dobe.
