A/N: Okay so this is a new fanfic I'm working on so please read and send me some feedback. This is that whole new character I was talking about earlier. No flames please, because this is SasuxOc. I wanted to try this out. Constructive criticism works. Need feedback. Also, my next chapter in You Belong With Me is up, so check that out too.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, only Yuki and the plot for this grand ole story.


After He Returns

Intro


"You're going to leave, aren't you," she said, coming up from behind him. He was at the training grounds again and he had just flung his last kunai at the wooden target. He was frozen in place. Slowly, he turned to face the girl who had questioned him. Her sherry-red/brown hair flowing slightly in the small breeze, she just stood there looking at him, her head tilted as if studying him intently.

"My business doesn't concern you," he replied coldly, walking towards the wooden target and retrieving his kunai. Walking back to his spot, he stopped to face her, putting most of his kunai back into his pouch. He still held one, his fist tightening around the hilt.

Yuki shrugged, her shoulders already slightly sagging. Sasuke knew that look. She was upset.

"It just seems like…" she paused, glancing at his white knuckles. "You're not happy here."

"I was never happy here," he turned his back on her, tossing the kunai at the target with vicious force. It made a loud thwump and was half-lodged into the wood. Even though she knew it was dangerous, she walked up behind and around him to make it towards the target. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the kunai before another two trapped her wrist, the one above nicking the fabric of her sleeve.

"You should know better." He scolded her, his voice like ice-rain dropping down on her. He ripped the kunai surrounding her hand from the post, but Yuki didn't move her hand.

"You know me, I was always the…different one of the group." Her voice was low, depressed. She gracefully yanked the kunai free and turned it around in her hand. The quality in the making of it was wonderful. It was worn but well taken care of. A chip here, a slight crack there.

"You should move." He warned her. Her head snapped up to see him staring at her, his eyes narrowed. Sighing, she walked back up to him with blank eyes. Once she reached him, their eyes met for a second and Sasuke could've sworn he saw a tear developing. She looked down and handed him his weapon.

"You'll be missed," she said before walking away and leaving Sasuke to throw his troubles at wood.
