Heh heh, yep, that's right, I wrote another one-shot… :D
I actually came up with this while it was snowing, and was randomly inspired to write something…it may not be too good, so read at your own risk…of your brain exploding ;)
One last thing. I have exams on the 25th, 26th, 29th, and the 30th
Wish me luck, I'll need as much as it as I can get.
Ok, here's my fic, hope it doesn't skip around too much for your liking.
No flames please, no matter how bad you think it is.
Well, here goes,
A Reminisce in the Snow
Snow fell silently to the frozen earth around her, as Sakura Haruno stood thinking. The soft, cold flakes of snow barely registered in her mind as they hit her exposed skin, as she had just ran from her apartment to think for a while, without thinking to grab a coat. She stood staring off, into the sky as the sun began to sink beneath the horizon. Her mind wandered to the one question still burning in her mind, even after a year. "Why did he leave?" Of course, everyone knew about the tragedy that had befallen the Uchiha clan, and power was all he wanted in his plans of revenge.
Still, leaving Konoha, the people that cared about him, and even his best friends…all for his revenge. She understood that his brother, in his quest to grow stronger than any other, had betrayed his clan and family and how his life and all he had ever known, fell apart in mere minutes. But, even after Naruto and Sakura tried so hard to make him see that they cared for him, he pushed them away and shattered what little warmth they had started in him.
All for the power to be strong enough to kill him and finally have his mind at ease.
All of the time they spent together; smiling, laughing, joking, growing, and finding themselves… he destroyed. The trust, love and caring he had, was thrown away. Thinking back to those times were bittersweet and she realized how short lived that time where all three of were together, as a team, was.
Looking to the snow-filled sunset, once more she realized just how much her and Naruto missed him. It was as though a there was a void in their lives, without their stoic best friend, to fill it. Even a glance at their old team 7 photo, left her in tears, and the usual 3 hour wait for their sensei, on the bridge, was quiet as neither talk, as memories played over and over in their minds. Just standing on the bridge left both with a deep sadness and a feeling of something amiss, even after Sai came to take his place.
Finally, as the full moon came to hang in its place, she felt the cold of winter settle in. Turning to take a final look at the full moon and the beauty of its beams as they illuminated the snowy field around her, she began to walk home.
Unbeknownst to her, the Uchiha prodigy sitting on the ledge overlooking a valley, at another of Orochimaru's hideouts, glanced at the moon and memories of his friends and all of the time they spent together began to fill his mind. Shaking away the thoughts after a couple of minutes, he decided to train harder and longer so all of the things he missed so much, even now, would be erased, at least for a while.
Hope you thought it was…acceptable, at least. Sigh
And as said above, no flames would be appreciated, Thanks:)
Flames tend to make me feel inadequate, (Lol) And I know it's not that good, but I really don't need any more criticism. Thanks…again!
