Even the most determined soul, the most unbreakable soul, can still lose all hope, and break into a million pieces. Naruto was one of those souls…

Chapter 2: You Can't Change The Unchangeable

"Your frustration will lead to your defeat…"

It was true. Naruto was tired, and at the moment, losing all momentum in the battle. Even through all his training, determination, and wisdom of fighting the right way, he still didn't have the upper hand. They have been fighting for what seemed like hours, and it looked as though this fight was almost over.

'I have to risk it…' Naruto thought, with regret.

Naruto shot back from the field, and summoned one of his clones. Immediately after he was at least 15 feet from Sasuke, he summoned his Rasengan.

"Yes!" Sasuke yelled with overwhelming joy.

Naruto shot forward at Sasuke, aiming for a direct hit to the torso. Sasuke then charged his Chidori, and used his speed to his advantage.

"CHIDORI!"

"RASENGAN!"

Time seemed to slow down as Naruto and Sasuke were mere inches from each other. Sasuke then put his foot down, and switched it to the right, and launched himself out of existence, reappearing behind Kakashi.

"Your too gullible Naruto…" Sasuke announced, as he slammed his Chidori through Kakashi's back, slamming into his heart.

Naruto stood with his back towards everyone.

"You see Naruto, I knew you were coming. The whole point of this mission was to lure you and Team 7 towards this location. I have no interest in Danzo." Sasuke announced.

Naruto was paralyzed. He couldn't believe that he trusted Sasuke enough, to actually believe that he was willing to come back. He knew that now, his stupidity caused more than a failing mission, or the hatred of more villagers. It caused a life.

"I'm taking everything from you, just to make my job a lot easier…" Sasuke said to the stunned Naruto… "And I know that even if I knocked you out, you would come to while we are reaching our destination."

With that, Naruto was met with a cold sensation throughout his body. When he looked down, he noticed a long beam of light sticking from his chest. Sasuke whispers in his ear were heard next.

"So with that, I'm going to leave you here." Sasuke whispered. "I know you will attempt to find me, through all this sudden hatred."

With that, Naruto blacked out.


Awakening with a beam of light on your face, while in this much pain, was enough for Naruto. 'It was just a dream…' Naruto thought to himself. He tried to lift his head, but was held back by some sort of pain in his upper back. He then put his hand to his chest, slowly. 'Please don't…'

Naruto was met with the pain of a open wound, that was bandaged of course. 'No, no no no…'

"Don't touch that! Your only going to make it worse!" A familiar voice announced.

'Shizune…'

The young medic girl was sitting over by the window, looking towards the clouds. To Naruto, this was nothing to be surprised about. The young girl was always there when Naruto awoke in the hospital. The only thing that surprised Naruto, was that one person was missing from the room.

"Where's Sakura?" Naruto questioned aloud, which was met by Shizune's sudden face drop. She was still looking towards the clouds when the emotion was shown.

The door suddenly opened, revealing Hinata, Kiba, Shino, Shikamaru, Choji, and Neji. No one was happy to see him, not even Hinata.

Ignoring all the pain, Naruto shot himself up, looking towards Shizune, while still sitting on the bed. "Shizune, where's Sakura?" Naruto asked with impatience.

Shizune stood there, not changing the look on her face.

"Where the fuck is Sakura!" Naruto screamed, with tears in his eyes.

Naruto didn't need to be answered. He shot himself back towards the bed, and put the pillow on top of his face, as he hugged it. He was crying uncontrollably, and he tried to mute out all the sound of his pouting, but the volume was too much. Why did the sky have to be bright? Why did the light have to wake him up? Why did they…die? This is all that went through his head, as he vented out all that could be given to his emotions.

"As much as you would like to help Naruto at the moment, he needs as much privacy as he can get at the moment." Shizune announced to everyone in the room. The sadness was all but hidden in her voice. She was also suffering.

"Naruto…" Hinata mumbled under her breath.

As much as she hated it, she would have to give up and leave the room. If it was up to her, she would have stayed until Naruto was completely back to normal. She knew though, that Naruto would now be forever different. For better or worse, she knew something was about to happen to Naruto's personality.

As much as it is against Shikamaru's personality, he just stood there, as everyone else went past him. He knew what it was like to lose a teacher. He knew almost exactly what Naruto was going through. Almost. With that, he turned, and left. He knew that he couldn't help Naruto, and there was nothing in that room that could be mended to Naruto's liking.

As soon as the door closed, Shizune herself fell back towards the wall, and slowly slid down to the floor, and cried.


The next few days in the hospital were exactly the same as the first day. No one besides the nurses could enter the room Naruto was held in. All sharp objects were to be kept away from him, and a Chakra Sealing jutsu was placed around the room. The disabled Naruto's ability to tap into his chakra, as long as he was in his room. They knew that Naruto could kill himself with his own hands, but doing that was not as easy as just using a jutsu on himself. Naruto refused to eat, and would either sleep or cry. That was his daily diet; weeping and sleeping.

He had to put all of that behind him today, because he was to meet with the Tsunade. The lady Hokage was brought out of her coma, to the best capabilities of Shizune. Tsunade was announced to the public about her condition, so Danzo had to take up her spot as Hokage. With Danzo killed, Kakashi then took his spot. With Kakashi killed, there was no one else who was capable of taking the role of Hokage. Tsunade was the only answer.


Hey guys. Sorry, but this chapter is short because I didn't have enough time to perfect it and make it to the appropriate length. I'm going on Vacation Thursday, all the way to Sunday, which is the reason why I had to do this chapter fast. All day tomorrow and Wednesday is final exams, so I won't have enough time to make the chapter perfect. Anyways. Just like I promised! I got one review, and I decided to post another chapter. Though the review wasn't positive, I still lived up to my word! When I come back on Sunday, I want to see 2 more reviews! Once I get what I ask, I'll post another chapter! Thanks for reading!

This chapter is heavily dedicated to my friends grandma, who fell into a coma for two days. She lost 20 Years of her memory when she awoke, meaning that she thought her daughter was still in High School. The worse thing about all of this, is that she doesn't know who my friend is.
