The Uchiha made an about turn to fully face the medic-nin, who was now standing, staring at the ground as crimson liquid dripped from her fingertip.

"Hmm…are you sure? Because, if you come with me…" he was cut off. "Sasuke…I've waited five and a half years to hear you say those words. And after…after reaching this far…I won't turn back." "Sakura…you've certainly grown." Remarked the seemingly satisfied missing-nin, as he turned to face Kakashi once more, with an obvious smirk lingering on his usually emotionless face.

"Sakura…" Kakashi whispered (to himself). At first, Sasuke stared quizzically at the expression of the stoic-nin, noting to himself that this had been the first time he had seen his former teacher's eye reflect so much: sadness…hurt…pain. But, as if he found joy in the masked-nin's expression, he blurted out, "Now, now Kakashi…you're not gonna cry, are you?"

As if being touched on a warm day by an ice-cold hand in the crook of his neck, Kakashi winced. Kakashi had been staring wide-eyed at Sakura, but now, he had a nasty glare fixed on the Uchiha. The masked-nin stood upright and, his eyes still fixed on the Uchiha, walked…through the bars of lightning. As he stepped through, his jounin vest and pants were being ripped and torn. The black spandex shirt he wore under the vest, with the mask attached…was being torn and shredded also. But Kakashi didn't care.

When he finally made it on the other side of the make-shift prison, he was bleeding all over. His mask was now, no more than a scrap of cloth covering the bridge of his nose, his undershirt was missing the left sleeve, and only had half of the right. It was ripped and torn from the ending of the mask, to the hem of his shirt. He gave off an unpleasant aura, and Sakura noticed. "Kakashi…" she stuttered, "I…I…Don't do this! Please!"

Sasuke stood dumbfounded as he took in the sight of Kakashi's bruised body, that and… his face. It hadn't looked as bad as he expected-(well, he certainly didn't have fish-lips…). Sasuke shifted his focus to Sakura for a moment. It seemed she hadn't been surprised by the sight of his face…which only meant one thing…

Suddenly, chirping sounds could be heard. And they all saw blood…a lot of it. Sakura gazed at the sight of Sasuke; his katana lodged in Kakashi's left arm. "Sasuke! No!" she screamed, as she ran towards the pair of sharingan wielders. But she stopped in her tracks and gasped as she saw Sasuke's body…fall to the ground.


I know it's short...but I'm new to this.
