"Sasuke, you've been recovering for quite some time now."
"Ai?" Sasuke looked around but there was only darkness.
"Ever since that match, if match can describe the way he slaughtered you, you haven't been training or anything. What am I going to do with you?" A spotlight appeared on Sasuke.
"Where are you?" Sasuke questioned running toward the voice, the spotlight glued to him.
"You know exactly where I am." The voice laughed as footsteps neared Sasuke.
"No I don't." Sasuke argued turning towards the footsteps.
"Is that because you never went looking for me? All this time in that bed and you never thought maybe I should try looking?" The voice was right in front of him but its owner shrouded in darkness.
"I can't leave the village."
"Can't or won't Uchiha. Look at you. Naruto is off finding the next Hokage and what are you doing? Nothing special. Of course, you aren't special like Naruto. Naruto would never have let me leave. You knew how scared I was and you let me go."
"Where are you? I'll find you."
"Good look with that." The voice scoffed the room filling with light. The light revealed Ai caked in blood, covered with snakes, colored slightly blue. "I'm dead."
"No." Sasuke clenched his fists.
Ai moved closer to Sasuke, whispered in his ear and disappeared.
"How are you feeling today, Sasuke?"
"Ai."
"I miss her too." The nurse sighed drawing the blinds. "I can't believe the elders would send her out on a mission while my mom and I were gone."
"You're Ai's sister." Sasuke struggled to get up.
"You should stay still." Aiyoku warned rushing to his bedside. "We need you to have a speedy recovery."
"Where is Ai?"
"We don't even know what her mission was." Aiyoku sighed sitting down. "It's a good thing I have Sakura to cheer me up."
"Sakura?"
"Yeah I forgot how much she and Ai were alike."
"Ai and Sakura?" Sasuke tried to hold back hi laughter.
"Yeah, Sakura's so worried about you. It reminds me when Naruto went on his first serious mission. Ai would wait by the woods every night just crying. Ai and Sakura both have big hearts."
Waiting for Naruto because he's special?
