Bakura's Play Mate: Hey everybody! What's shaken'? Life treaten' you good?

Sasuke: Are you serious? You're making an angsty story and you use that as your opening line? You dope.

BPM: Don't be mean Sasuke! You know I love you!

Sasuke: Yeah sure.

BPM: Well anyway. Hello everyone and welcome to my fic "Seven Crows". Yes, it's revolves around "The Crow" because I love that movie and I would like to see it done Naruto style. Yes, it is yaoi so if you don't like, then don't read. Eventually I will Sakura bash, I haven't decided. I don't own Naruto or "The Crow" I wish I did though. And I hope you all enjoy the story.

Seven Crows

That One Night

The scene was gruesome. From the looks of it, the door was kicked in with its splintered edges and the wall in back of it having an indent of a door handle. Through the door, the ground was layered in glass, sparkling innocently as the moonlight from outside the broken window shown brilliantly. It was apparent that the glass had come from the vanity mirror, which had been broken in the process of what seemed to be a struggle. The vanity itself had seen better days as the drawers had been ransacked and all of its contents thrown about the room. On top of the vanity, there was a photo of the two who had recently owned the apartment. The photo use to show one of the happiest couples in the entire village of Konoha but whoever had barged in had burned one of the occupant's head off.

Walking further into the scene, more dressers and side tables could bee seen knocked over and gone through. The main attraction of the whole living room was the large circular window that had been broken. From the looks of it, something had been thrown out of it. With a skillful eye, upon the hardwood floor sitting there in a small crimson bubble, a drop of blood could be seen. And if one really concentrated, a train of these rouge spots could be seen from the entryway, to a large puddle in the middle of the floor, to smears to the window, and more drops all the way to the bedroom.

The Bedroom. The area in which victim number one was found. Atop the bed, gasping for air and clutching the sheets for dear life, eyes shut in agony and unable to call for help. Choking on his own blood from a gash on his neck, to down his chest, and rolled off of his stomach. Blood flowing freely through the open wounds like thick waterfalls, pooling into the stream that was his sheets beneath him. The marks made on his wrists seemed to have healed slightly which made the conclusion that whoever did this didn't want him to perish just yet. But the biggest shocker came from the wounds that weren't on the top portion of his body, but in the lower region. Dried blood caked and dried on the sheets below him, his legs spread out and all along his thighs were covered in dried blood along with bruises and slices made from a kunai. It was obvious that the boy had been raped. The boy's face showed no other emotion save for excruciating pain. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead as well as tears of sorrow for the situation he had found himself in.

This is what they found when the Jounin arrived. It all looked like a break in at first glance until Asuma glanced at the ground and found the almost non-existent drops of blood that lead to the bedroom. It was Kakashi who first opened the door to uncover the boy. That was when all of the elite ninjas started to scramble to save the boys life.

"GET SOME MEDIC NINS IN HERE! WE AREN"T GOING TO LOSE HIM!" shouted Kakashi as he tried in vain to stop the blood flow from the boy's most recent wounds on his chest.

"I'm on it!" said Gai as he ran out of the room to get the medic nins that Kakashi requested. Upon departure all he could think was 'Why them? Of all people, why them?"

Back inside the room, Kakashi was still tending to the poor boy.

"My God! Where is everyone else?! I can't help him on my own! I need help in here!"

Suddenly, the boy spoke. It was raspy, and came up with small amounts of blood, but he spoke nonetheless.

"W-wh… Where's sss Saaas…" Kakashi covered his mouth in an attempt to save the boy his energy.

"Please. Don't speak; we need to get you to the hospital. You're going to be fine."

"Nnn No! Whhh where…" He coughed up crimson all over Kakashi's vest in the attempt.

"Please. Stop talking! You need to save you strength. I'm not going to let you die on me." Kakashi held the small boy close to him hoping it will get the boy to stay silent. Once again, his attempts proved negative and the boy shouted.

"WHERE'S SASUKE?!!?!" Coughing up everything else the boy had, and shaking violently, he felt his soul depart and everything go out of focus. The pain was leaving, and yet the boy still frowned. He was determined to get the answer before he left. Looking at Kakashi dead in the eye, using the last bit of energy he had left in his body, he spoke again.

"Ssssasssuuuk…" He couldn't even finish as death claimed him. Kakashi stayed there like a deer in headlights.

"No. Wake up!" He shook the boy and got no response. "WAKE UP! DAMN IT! You can't die on me! COME ON!" He shook the boy harder and all he received was his head rocking back and forth lifelessly. Tears started coming down Kakashi's face and soaked his mask. He picked up the boy and laid him down on the stained bed. Kneeling next to him, Kakashi took his hand and held onto it. As if on queue, a medic nin, followed by Gai, came through the door and straight to the bed next to Kakashi. With one look, they all understood that the boy was dead.

"Damn it." Said Gai and he clenched his fists and shut his eyes in anger. He looked back up at Kakashi, and walked up to him. In return, the masked nin stood up, placing the deceased boy's hand lightly next to him, and took a few steps back as if to get a clear picture of what just happened. Turning his back on the scene, he walked out, leaving everything behind. Gai stood there and took one last glance at the corpse that was lying there.

"Don't worry. We will find out who did this to you. For now, sleep well, Naruto." And the Jounin walked out in pursuit of Kakashi.

When Kakashi stepped out, he was face to face with Anko.

"Anko. They brought you in this too? " Kakashi said with genuine curiosity.

"Yeah. I take it Naruto is in there?" He nodded slowly. Anko shut her eyes and shook her head. She knew she was going to get a headache with this one.

"I can't believe this. Two in one night. And these two specifically! What the hell were these people thinking?" The masked nin looked up surprised.

"What do you mean both of them?" Anko gave him a skeptical look.

"You didn't know? Right now we have the others scraping up Sasuke Uchiha off the sidewalk seven stories down." The male jounin's eyes went big as his thought's ran back to what Naruto said when he was asking where Sasuke was. "Did you find it the least bit odd on how that window in the front room was broken?"

"So they got both of them. What a waste. They had their whole lives ahead of them and it was taken away from them. Just like that! Jesus. Who the hell did this?!"

"We still don't know. We are thinking it was Itachi Uchiha who did it, since we found a piece of his hair here, but we also found evidence of Orochimaru as well."

"It couldn't have been Itachi. He made amends with the leaf village two years ago. He was already tried; he should be in prison right now! "

"I understand, that's why I think they were both in on it."

"You mean Orochimaru and Itachi Uchiha?"

"Exactly. How else could Itachi get out? We designed that cell specifically for him. There was only one way to get him out and it had to be from the outside. Come on Kakashi! It all fits. The only thing we need now is their motive. Why did they come here and kill Sasuke and Naruto?" Kakashi narrowed his eyes and looked down in thought. Anko never ceased to amaze him, but that wasn't important right now. All he knew was that two dangerous killers were on the lose and knowing them, they have followers. It was going to turn into another long battle again if they weren't caught. Taking a long sigh, He looked up at Anko.

"Let me see Sasuke." Anko turned on heel and walked out the front door. When Kakashi got out, he saw that everything was being taped off. The stairwell, the windows, hallways. The only way to get down was the elevator. Anko already pushed the button and by the time Kakashi arrived, the doors opened and the two stepped in and made their way down.

Once at the ground floor, the doors opened and out they came to the front of the building. When the jounin first arrived, they came through the back in case of an ambush. As soon as they walked out the front doors, Kakashi had to look away.

Six or seven of the medic nins surrounded a covered lump in the sidewalk. Surrounding that lump was a giant splatter of blood. Sasuke's blood. Oh if Naruto only saw this…

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN DEAD!? THEY CAN'T BE! THEY ARE MY BEST FRIENDS! THEY ONLY ONES I COULD TRULY CALLED FRIENDS!"

"I'm sorry, we need to ask you to leave. We can't make this a bigger scene than it already is."

"NO! I WANT TO SEE THEM!"

"I'm sorry. Please keep your voice down. We need to ask you to leave. Please don't make this any more difficult than it has to be." Kakashi over heard and walked over to the scene. What he saw made his hurt break. The boy saw the jounin make his appearance.

"Kakashi. Let me see them. At least let me see Naruto. Please."

"I'm sorry Gaara. I know they meant a lot to you, but now is not the time. Just go home for right now and we'll give you further updates. Please Gaara. This made a huge hole in all of our hearts." Gaara's eyes watered as he looked past Kakashi; behind him where more nins carrying a covered body bag from the building. A lone hand dropped from the bag, and from the hand, a ring. The ring came off and rolled over to Gaara. He recognized that ring to be the one Sasuke gave to Naruto. Not wanting Kakashi to find it, he slowly nodded to the jounin and slowly turned. Making sure the masked nin walked away, he walked back, picked up the ring, and ran. This would be the last remembrance he had of the two boys.

The entire block flashed with red and blue lights, voices were heard as everyone was receiving orders to lock the place down and make sure everything was examined. Above it all, two watchful eyes scanned the scene below. Feathers ruffled, wings expanded, and a loud "CAW!" was heard as the examiner took flight into the night, leaving everything behind.

BPM: AWWWWW!!!! Gaara cried!!! TT I love you Gaara!!!

Sasuke: I thought you loved me.

Sasuke: Oh joy…

Gaara: I don't cry…

Gaara: Then I will kill you.

BPM: Good! Then I can be with Naruto! YOSH!

Gaara: Naruto is mine!!!

Sasuke: You two are idiots. Anyway, review, leave comments, and say stuff. Whatever the hell you guys call it. Just no flaming. Flaming is useless. And it pisses all of us off.
