A/N: Hey there! I DO not own Naruto and if I did I would be filthy rich with all the people going gaga over it nowadays!
This is my second story and the first one I did for Naruto, It was supposed to be a one-shot, but my imagination went wild… (Guess I can make it a twoshot…)
Hehehe… Well… happy reading!
The Uchiha prodigy stood before the gates of Konoha.
"Tadaima…" He muttered softly, barely aware of the deadly wounds he had sustained in his hardest fight ever…
He had finished his goal….
He had taken his revenge….
He had become the avenger.
"I congratulate you little brother…"
Itachi gasped softly, his hand grasping the kunai that was lodged painfully through his heart.
"You have defeated me, haven't you?" He laughed painfully. "Now that you have finished what you have wanted to do all along…
What do you want to do with your life?"
"I have a plan" He answered coldly.
"Yes… you shall return to Konoha… but will they still want you?" Itachi smiled cruelly, "It seems it is our destiny, little brother to be loved and hated by all…"
"Shut up" He answered quickly, barely able to control the anger that had risen from deep inside him.
"How dare you speak to me about being hated? It was your fault they hate you! You left! You killed everyone that cared for you! You killed Okasaan! You killed everyone… and left me to suffer…"
"Yes I did… but you left too… you may not have killed anyone… but you still broke the hearts of those who cared for you… In your anger and hatred for me, you did the very thing I did… I may have killed our family, but you have broken their hearts… that is much much worse, little brother…
You have become like me…"
"No, I have not…"
He replied one last time, although he knew that there was no one listening anymore, Itachi was gone, his eyes staring blankly at the darkening sky.
"I have not become like you" he whispered, "I may have left… But I will return… I have broken their hearts… but I can mend it again… finally, I can return the love I should have given in the first place…" and with that he left, the wind softly blowing his raven locks, leaving the body of his broken brother behind… and his revenge…
He hurried forward, stealthily avoiding anyone, his mind unwillingly, unwittingly centered on a face that haunted him since he had left so very long ago. A face so vividly alive in his memory, her sparkling green eyes shining brightly on him and only for him, flowing pink hair fluttering gently in the gentle breeze.
"Sakura…"
The pained threatened to blacken him out, His every breath felt like fire through his lungs, but he kept going.
"Where?" He wondered, "I have no home anymore"
But his feet kept on going, as if an invisible force was pushing him on, lending him strength, taking him towards a lovely house with breathtaking sakura trees, surrounding it.
Suddenly he realized where he was, how could he not have known? He had seen this house a hundred times, almost each day when he was young, and each day it had brought him only feelings of annoyance. But now… but now it brought him joy that he could not explain.
"Would she still be waiting for me?" A small voice in his head wondered.
"Of course she will" he angrily whispered to himself.
"Hadn't she promised that she would always wait for him?"
"Sasuke-kun…."
He laid her down the cold bench, wishing he had a coat to cover her with. He gazed at her beautiful face, so peaceful in her sleep.
"Thank you… Sakura"
He stopped suddenly in his tracks, his heart beat fast as he stared at the pink haired girl in front of him… she was watching a bird in flight, her back turned from him, her hair blowing gently in the breeze.
Never had he seen such a beautiful sight.
Suddenly he could not help himself, he stumbled forward, all the energy he had leaving him and the world began to darken…
"Hey! Are you all right? What's wrong? Say something!"
"Sasuke-kun… don't leave me…"
A/N: So… that was it…. Keep those reviews coming so I could post the second part…
Hehehe… the more reviews the faster I post it up… tell me what you think is coming!
Chow!
