Anthem of the Angels
"Because in the end even the purest of Angels die"
White walls surround us
No light will touch your face again
Rain taps the window
As we sleep among the dead
Sasuke stared at the pure white ceiling blankly, not a single emotion crossed his face. It was like he was watching but not seeing. Like the world was passing him by as he stayed still, like a frozen corpse. Small raindrops pelted against the window like a broken record, it was days like these in which he hated the most.
Rainy days.
The rain made it seem like the heavens were crying for him, for his family, for the pain and suffering he has endured. Dark bags hung under Sasuke's eyes showing that he hadn't slept in days. The memories seemed so fresh, like He was replaying them again and again, like He had done once so…so long ago.
Days go on forever
But I have not left your side
We can chase the dark together
If you go then so will I
Sasuke stared at the graves, he hadn't moved in six hours. He just stared, no one approached him in his moment of grieving. After all today was the day, the day Itachi Uchiha murdered his family, his clan. Sasuke stared at the grave stones like a lifeless doll, like some one who had seem one too many battles and horrors in his life time, one which was true. Sasuke had seen too many horrors, but unlike most he had seen worst of the worst. He had seen his own family murdered and replayed over and over. For someone like Sasuke this was unforgettable, not that he could anyways. There were only two things in Sasuke's whole life that he truly wanted, he wanted to avenge his family and he wanted to be with his family forever.
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
His cold, hard, lifeless eyes down casted at the last thought, he felt ashamed for his thoughts but in the middle of his sleepless nights he can't help it. He always thought about what it would be like for his own black stone to be set next to his parents in the front of the Uchiha Graveyard. He would lie next to his parents for all eternity. For some sick reason that seemed like a pretty good idea right now for him. Sasuke looked up once again at the small black graves, his eyes re-reading the names over and over again.
Fugaku Uchiha
Mikoto Uchiha
As if re-reading it would some how make it less true, less real.
Cold light above us
Hope fills the heart
And fades away
Skin white as winter
As the sky returns to grey
For the first time since Sasuke was little, he cried. He mentally berated himself for crying, but at this point he didn't care. For ten minutes he just cried, until he looked up determinedly at the stones.
"Mom, Dad. I'm leaving, I might not be back, but I promise I will avenge you."
…
"I will get stronger."
And with that he left, it was already night by then. Tonight Sasuke was leaving, he would get stronger, he would end Itachi.
Days go on forever
But I have not left your side
We can chase the dark together
If you go then so will I
"Sasuke!"
He stopped as the annoying pinkette stepped in front of him. Sasuke looked indifferent, but on the inside he was kicking himself for not noticing her earlier.
"Sakura."
Sasuke said dully, she looked a little perplexed but he didn't care. After awhile he left her lying on a cold hard bench. It was more than she deserved in his eyes, not after the trouble she'd put him through, with her annoying fan-girl attitude, and her pitiful ninja skills. She was treated way better than she should have. But her words did strike a nerve in him, he knew she liked him but he never thought she loved him.
'Take me with you!'
Why did she want to go, she was loyal to Konoha so why leave.
'I'm so in love with you, I can't even stand it!'
Love. She can't love me, she's thirteen, she knows nothing of love.
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
I keep holding onto you
But I can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels
Then say the last goodbye
Sasuke stared down at Itachi angrily, it couldn't have been true. He has to be lying, Itachi couldn't have killed everyone, mom and dad, to save the village, to save me. But deep down inside he knew it was true. Sasuke fell to his knees as tears began to cascade down his face. He shook his head, the same pain and sorrow filled him like it did last time. After the massacre. How could I have not seen it, the dead, cold look in his eyes? Itachi had been dying, no; he had died a long time before now. Now he ceased to exist; now he was gone.
My brother, my mom, dad, everyone. They're gone, gone because of Konoha.
They will pay!
You're dead alive
You're dead alive
You're dead alive
You're dead alive
Sasuke stared at Naruto hatefully, after everything they did to him, he would still fight for them, still defend them. Why would he still protect that pathetic village after everything? Sasuke charged up his Chidori and ran at Naruto with the intent to kill. Naruto the same, but he used the Rasengan. There two boys met within a second their two most powerful Justus clashing. The explosion destroyed everything in the surrounding area. Naruto landed gracefully the Kyuubi enhancing his features as he gave into it even more. We continued to fight the longer the battle continued the more tired Sasuke became, Naruto's endless energy kept him going longer but he too was beginning to tire out. Naruto sent a showdown clone after Sasuke distracting him for a second but that second was long enough. The moment Sasuke's attention was diverted Naruto hit him full on with a Kyuubi powered Rasengan. That ball of swirling chakra connected Sasuke's chest. His eyes widening as the Rasengan's power ripped his chest open. Every memory of the two came flooding back and Sasuke could help but feel a little resent for the fact the weak Naruto managed to beat him. And that Naruto had the life Sasuke couldn't, he had friends, he had people who cared. And in his final moments Sasuke couldn't have helped but feel a little happy, that now he would be with his brother and family once again.
There is nothing left of you
I can see it in your eyes
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
I keep holding onto you
But I can't bring you back to life
Sing the anthem of the angels
And say the last goodbye
