Can We Be Friends Yet?
Anger,Rage,Hatred all formed in one mind and an urge to kill.How will Naruto handle these emotions when another loved one falls dead at his feet?
Chiasu
Her body fell to the ground in a lump as her features usually full of life,turned slowly to that of a dead person's.
"Sasuke..."
Her voice barely came out in a whisper.Her light pink hair was splayed in tresses around her head,her jade eyes looking at the dark haired crush she held onto for so long as a thin line of blood formed down to her chin from her mouth.
"SASUKE YOU BASTARD!"
Naruto shouted as he ran to Sakura's aid.The pink haired girl he had loved for so long was now in front of him,dying.In the sick,twisted mind that is Naruto's,Sakura was still beautiful whilst on her last breath.
"Sakura-chan?"
Naruto hadn't called her that for years,but it mattered the most now.
"Are you okay?"
That was a stupid question to ask at a time like this,but harboring no medical jutsu,it's all he could offer.
Sakura's mouth slowly turned into a smile.The same smile she always gave Sasuke when the three of them were younger and Kakashi-sensei was there to help them in their times of need.
But this smile was genuine.
"N-Naruto-chan..."
Chan?When had she started calling him chan?
"I'm okay...but please...don't hurt Sasuke-kun..."
Those were Sakura's last words as her eyes closed,the genuine smile still plastered onto her face.
"How could you!?"
The monster sealed inside of Naruto acted as if it was just awoken from many,many years of sleep and it filled Naruto with rage.
"How could you kill someone who has been there all the times you needed her?"
Naruto's gaze wandered to Sasuke's bloody sword,than his emotionless face.
"SHE WOULD HAVE SACRIFICED HER LIFE FOR YOU,AND YOU JUST CRUSH HER HOPE FOR YOU AND KILL HER?"
Naruto jumped to his feet and entered his attack mode.His usual,sky blue eyes turned into that of the kyuubi's.Blood red.
With a scream of hatred and rage,Naruto ran at Sasuke,getting his newly perfected jutsu ready for the kill.But was stopped as a snake-like figure appeared in front of Naruto's destined target and started repeatedly slashing at Naruto,cutting him here and there until he was weak and on his knees.
"Are you okay,Sasuke-kun?"
Orochimaru always has that bastard's back! Naruto thought.
Sasuke watched with emotionless eyes as Orochimaru's sword went down at the weak,pathetic blonde and he felt a twinge of guilt and regret.All the things Naruto had said,more like yelled, earlier had gotten to him.
"NO!"
Sasuke took his place in front of the quivering kyuubi as the sword pierced his gut.Grabbing his own sword,he pierced Orochimaru has well,letting his former master fall to the ground just as Sakura did.
"Sasuke...You gave your life for me?"Naruto said,standing up and ripping Orochimaru's Grass Cutter from Sasuke's gut.
A single tear rolled down Naruto's cheek.He couldn't stand to see another teammate,a friend,fall dead in front of him where he could have been there to protect them.
Sasuke fell to the ground and Naruto immediately pulled him over to his own body and laid him on his lap.
Memories of their childhood played in both of their minds.Of course there had been bad times,but there were also good times.
One thought entered Naruto's mind that had been bugging him all his life.
"Sasuke-kun?"
Sasuke opened his eyes lazily and looked at Naruto.
"Y-yes Naruto?"
Naruto looked away for a second and pondered on how he should word this.
"Um,can we be friends yet?"
Sasuke's eyes widened at this.He closed his eyes and a genuine smile creeped onto his face.
"Of course,Naruto-kun."
I got this idea from a picture I saw on DeviantArt and if you read the last part when listening to sad music,it can get to you.
