Neonn: Yeah. I get weird ideas sometimes. And, since I have no idea where I would go with this, it will probably remain a one-shot. As usual.
Disclaimer: Naruto (c) Kishimoto. Do you have to remind me?

Time. Time had always meant nothing to it. For the Kyuubi, what did it matter if one year passed or a hundred? It was immortal. Until that pesky human had sealed it away, locked it up in the body of a crying child. For the first time in its existence, it knew to fear death. It's life was tied to its human host. Should the boy die, so would the Kyuubi. And it could not allow that to happen.

"Hey there, 'jiisan! You should watch where you're going!" said the loud, obnoxious blonde young man, rudely flipping off the gray wrinkled man who had gotten in his way. The old man turned to glare, black eyes becoming red, kaleidoscope eyes whirring in anger. Just because he was old didn't make him entirely feeble. Old, angry red eyes met bright, defiant blue ones, both sets widening in shock.
"Naruto?" asked the old sharingan user in shock. "Impossible...you died..."
"Sauske-teme," said Naruto weakly, staring at what his old rival had become. "Shit." He turned around and bolted, taking no notice to the people shoved to the side.
"Naruto! Wait!" yelled Sasuke, raising a hand after the rapidly disappearing orange flash. "Wait..." But Sasuke was an old man now, and in no shape to be chasing after the jinchuuriki.
"Ojiisan, what's the matter? It looks like you've seen a ghost," a dark eyed, pink haired little boy came up to Sasuke, looking at his grandfather respectfully.
"...hn." Sasuke stared, lost in the past. "A ghost. Yes. That's all it was."

Far away, in the forest where no one would disturb him, a lonely boy cried. He sat there, crying and cursing. He cried for friends lost, opportunities missed, dreams turned to dust, and a world full of change when he remained static, eternally a young man. Most of all, he cursed the Kyuubi in him, the demonic fox that wouldn't let him die.

Neonn: Yeah. Originally he was going to meet Sakura, but suddenly it became Sasuke. Possibly I'd like to do one where he meets Sakura, or some of his other friends...Gosh, this is depressing...
