Naruto - Sasuke and Yuuka
Yuuka is a character that I made up. Don't be surprised if I upload more than one chapter at a time. It probably won't happen often.
Chapter One - A Long Awaited Return
She walked along the familiar dirt path surrounded by the trees she had used to climb in when she was younger. She had traveled down this path a lot in the past, but that was years ago. The loudest sound to be heard was the sound of her footsteps on the rocks, but she could not hear it. Her thoughts were too focused on the past she had tried to forget. As she walked up to the gates of Konoha she looked up at the village. It hadn't changed at all. She could remember it well, even though she had only lived there for the first five years of her life. As she remembered she groaned and hoped that she wouldn't see the reason she left. That she wouldn't see him.
"Yuuka? Is that you?" called a voice which snapped her from her wandering thoughts. She turned and her eyes locked on a familiar figure. It had been six years since here, but she was fairly sure she knew who was calling.
"Hinata?" she asked with a voice hinting a slight uncertainty.
"So, it is you Yuuka. I haven't seen you in ages. I hardly recognised you. It was lucky that the Hokage told us you were coming back."
"Wait... Us? Who is 'us'?"
"Well, everyone in the academy and the ninjas working here."
Yuuka groaned. She was certain this meant that he also found out. There was no way that he was not at the academy. Hinata looked at her with concern. She did not know what had caused her to leave six years ago. No one did excluding one person, and he was the one she wanted to avoid the most. Hinata's confusion was doubled by the fact that she had never seen Yuuka act unenthusiastic about anything before.
"Well, anyway, I was told to take you the academy, so, let's go and while we do, tell me everything that's happened," said Hinata excited to finally see her best friend again. As the two friends walked to the school they swapped stories.
