Crashing to the ground for the sixth time of the entire day, a horrific shriek blasted into the dusk to the sky. That image that kept appearing whenever he falls. No matter how many times he tries to forget, it won't go away. It stayed glued to his mind.

How many days has it been since he left? Feeling a flow of wet substance on his left arm gushing out, he thought for too long yet again. He must pay attention or else he'll never be able to kill that man. He must do whatever it takes to master the curse seal.

Getting up from the place where he fell. But end up falling back again causing more blood to pool down to the ground creating a puddle. Lying pathetically with his blood still pouring out. Closing his eyes and gritted his teeth so he wouldn't yell out again. He slowly began to open them, the images around him began to blur and spin. Like it was trying to create another image from the sky and shattered rocks around him.

The yellowish atmosphere from the rocks changed to something more soft and spiky. But the one thing that stood out the most was the blue orbs.

Naruto…He gently whispered under his breath.

He blinked his eyes to discover that no one was there. His versions cleared and everything looked exactly how it was like before. Closing his eyes again to see if he was hallucinating or not. But all he can see was the blue mesmerizing orbs. Flipping over to his back he gave a huge sigh. That image from that time was still haunting him.

Seeing him defeated and lying on the ground. To the point near death. Was the most heart breaking moment in his entire life. Squeezing his eyes shut.

Naruto…I…

The day he left Naruto lying there was the day of his birthday.

Author's comment: Confusing ne? Yes another short story done by me. But, the last sentence of the story is not true. I just made it up to make it sadder.

Don't worry; I'll make another one but more happier story for Sasuke's birthday soon.

Happy birthday Sasuke.
