A/N: a drabbel again, as I have kinda unlearnt how to write proper stories... and the title sucks, i know but i couldn't think of a better one.

Thanks to iceheart for beta-ing. I don't know what I'd do without you.

disclaimer: naruto's not mine!!

please R&R!! I'm paticularly interested in what you think of this...

To the end

Gods are brave and strong and invincible and scarcely touchable. Gods never die.

Naruto knows this – he has read about them - and that's why sometimes, Sasuke reminded him of a god. And a god in a positive way, of course. Just like Naruto himself is a god to other people, though he doesn't notice it for sure. Just like Sakura, Ino, Shikamaru, Neji, Hinata, Kiba and everyone else are gods and goddesses in their own way for someone.

Except when they aren't. When they are only humans and weak and everything they don't want to be. But when they are like this, they are just as magnificent as gods. And better. Because they are not immortal. And when they die, they won't come back. At first, Naruto had always thought of this as a sad thing. But now when he considers it, he thinks that it can't be bad or wrong or anything. Wrong is perhaps only the whole immortality- thing. 'Cause you can't have an actual live when you live forever. Even the world's coming to an end sometime and you can't outlive it.

And they don't. He doesn't. They just won't and so everything is being right in some way. And so easy. Just stand up and shrug off the woes of yesterday, take along everything you need to fulfil your dreams and live. Just live it to the end.

Naruto smiles at this thought and clings this tiny little thing called hope even closer to his heart.

finish

when you feel, you live and when you live, you die and when you die you don't have to say you're sorry
