fantasyAge - Yeah, I know I do. And I'm gonna force you to, now. :3 Here's your other chapter. Happy? P
Recap
He froze as something caught his eye. Sakura was now awake, walking sleepily towards the scene. As she opened her eyes and saw the state of her family, her mouth dropped open in horror. And, as she saw Sasuke standing there, her mind was overloaded. She dropped to her knees, and let out the loudest scream that Sasuke had ever heard.
Chapter 2 – Enjoy!
It was then that Sasuke realized what he had done. He had finally snapped out his masochistic state, and he felt horrible. He stared at her blankly, while one lone tear slid down his cheek. I shouldn't be crying! I'm the cause of this mess! The cause of her heartache! Sasuke mentally yelled at himself. He had no right to feel pain for himself. He looked over at Sakura who had finally stopped screaming, and felt his heart sink. She was now lying on the ground, back turned away from her parents, crying her eyes out. He had a quick flashback of, and only had 3 words in his mind: The Uchiha Masacre. He had looked as pitiful as she did now. Remorse, regret, sorrow, pain both mental and physical; he felt all of these at this moment, and it was killing him. Sakura got to her knees, and slowly stood, her back still turned away from the man she loved. Well, once loved. I wouldn't be surprised if she hates me now. She has a right to, I know- Sasuke's thoughts were interrupted as Sakura began to talk.
"Sasuke…" She said in a low tone as she turned around to face him.
Sasuke? What happened to the –kun? Sasuke shuddered.
"Sasuke… W-" Sakura's words cut off as she started to cry again. She fell to her knees, crying - hard. "WHY?!" She screamed between sobs.
Sasuke rushed over to her and was about to hug her, when she slapped him.
"G-get away f-from m-m-me!" She stuttered with wide eyes.
"Sakura-chan, I'm not going to hurt you! I'm so sorry…" He said with pleading eyes. "The Hokage hired me…" Sasuke explained to her exactly what Tsunade had told him. He grabbed her shoulders as she started to shake uncontrollably.
"Tsunade-sensei…" She weeped, leaning towards Sasuke. He hugged her protectively.
"We can't stay here." She stated. "I can't live here any longer. Thanks to her, I-I've lost my whole family… For her own selfish reasons… And I trusted her!" Sakura spat out.
Sasuke listened to her words carefully as a thought crossed his mind.
"Sakura-chan… We have to do it."
"D-do what?"
"We have to run away… together."
Sorry, I know it was short, but I have a lot of other things to do aswell. I'll try to update at least once a week. At least. It will probably be more often than that, but that will be my safety net. P Review and tell me what you think?
