Sasuke POV
It's been five years since I left the Leaf with Itachi.
It's been four and a half years since Itachi joined the Akatsuki.
Only recently has Pain considered letting me join the Akatsuki considering I always go anywhere Itachi does to the point Itachi, Kisame, and me are considered a team. The spots open because Itachi took Orochimaru's ring before Orchimaru defected.
Now, Itachi was insisting that we figure out a way for me to get into the Chunin Exams.
"Kisame, you gonna eat the rest of that?" I asked the blue skinned man sitting next to me at the table. Currently we were resting at one of our many bases and Itachi was off in our room trying to come up with a good disguise for me, man this was getting really annoying, last time he worried this much was the time I snuck in to a ninja academy and got a real headband without telling him. And THAT was as annoying as heck.
"Really Sasuke, really?" Kisame said glaring at me, "It's shark fin soup, I hate shark fin soup. Go ahead." I quickly poured the last of the soup into my bowl and downed it quickly.
"Hey, nii-san?" I said walking into mine and Itachi's room.
"Yeah, Sasuke," Itachi called from our closet.
"I found a disguise." I said slowly, Itachi appeared to be losing it.
"Really?" He said completely stepping out of the closet.
"Yeah" I said as I grabbed a few things from my closet. I slid on a vest that would cover my Uchiha crest on my back, put on a beanie cap to cover my hair, and tied my head protector from Konoha around my head. "Oh, one sec." I said to Itachi as I went into the closet and shut the door behind me. I quickly switched to my black shorts and put on a tight fitting black t-shirt with the classic Uchiha crest under my vest.
I popped out of the closet and looked at Itachi.
"Impressive," I heard Kisame say.
"Ok, Itachi all that's left is to assemble a team so I can enter the exams they are in a couple of days." I said calmly.
"Good luck with that." I heard Kisame mumble.
"Well, we could ask Deidara or Sasori…no they'll just try to kidnap Sasuke…aha!" Itachi yelled triumphantly, seriously…he's losing it.
"What?" I asked, perfectly calm.
"I figured out who can be your team, they both owe me anyway." Itachi said and he might have been…smirking, creepy, just creepy.
"Who?" I said curiously.
"Elizabeth Kaguya and Eric Lucky." Itachi said finally calm again.
"You mean bone chick and arrow dude?" I said taking off my disguise.
"No, Eric Lucky is a fake name but he's actually a sword user and you should be grateful I found a sane Kaguya for your team, they are usually crazy and dead." Itachi said glaring.
"Yeah, yeah." I said grinning back at him.
"Ok I'll just call them up." Itachi said leaving the room.
A Few Days Latter at the Gate of the Hidden Leaf
"Wow, it's been so long." I whispered to Itachi.
"Shhh," Itachi snapped.
As we walked into the Leaf Village following the crowd we just drifted around, blending in. Slowly we made our way closer and closer to the Uchiha Compound. When we finally got there I grinned wide, glad that I didn't have to pretend I was some random genin, before the Exams tomorrow I would meet up with Eric and Liz, Itachi would use substitution to pose as our sensei when needed.
I ran into the compound and into my house, I had to try hard to only remember the happy memories that were here. I slowly made my way to my room and looked in. It looked exactly the same, except there was a clip of a newspaper on my bed. I walked over and read it. It was the obituary with my name on it I reached up to my neck, as usually my metal chain with a glass Uchiha crest attached dangled from my neck. It always brought me comfort.
"Itachi," I said after regaining my composure, "Later can we visit my grave." I said solemnly.
"Of course Sasuke, but you should rest we have to be there at ten. Oh and you'll have to go by Sasu." Itachi said showing his overly caring side.
"Okay," I said before I slide into my bed and feel asleep.
Naruto POV
Sasuke's dead, it still doesn't seem real. I still visit his grave though; I should get over it though. I'm a ninja and if I don't stay focused I'll drag down the team and I don't want to get my comrades hurt. Sakura and Shikamaru are on my team along with Kakashi sensei. We're going to be in the Chunin Exam so I better keep my game up.
Shikamaru, Sakura, and I were walking towards the Ninja Academy, like we were instructed. As we went up to the room we were told we heard a commotion near the door we were told to go to.
A kid with bushy eyebrows, a weird haircut, and a freaky green jumpsuit was getting beaten up by two kids who were blocking the door we were supposed to go in.
"Please…we're begging you…let us in." Said a girl with two little buns on the side of her head, as she said this she took a step towards them but once she got in hitting distance she got slapped across her face.
The two kids then started saying something about them doing us a favor. But, I wasn't paying attention, because a really weird team came walking towards us.
Of course it's a three man cell. They all look about my age and they all had a confident air about them. The kid who seemed to be leading the team seemed about our age and had a cocky smirk on. He was wearing a tight fitting black shirt with a light blue vest on-top and he was also wearing a black beanie, with some raven colored hair showing, which was tightly secured to his head by a hidden mist head band but he seemed oddly familiar. The boy on his left was really weird. He reminded me of Zabuza, he was wearing a tight fitting black tank top and white shorts on, he also had a head band but he covered it with his pure white hair and he also has a sword on his back. On the middle kid's right was a girl with long blond, she was wearing a tight fitting dark blue tank top, black leggings, hair pulled back with her headband, and normal ninja shoes. (AN: No I did not make her an OC version of me) Weird. Wait! Mist head bands! This isn't going to end well.
"Hey, you," Said the kid in the middle pointing at the kid who slapped the girl.
"Yeah," He said looking irritated until he saw the kid then his face paled.
"Drop, the illusion, it's downright pathetic." He said with a smirk.
"Sasu, chill not everyone has eyes as good as yours." The girl standing next to him said in a slightly annoyed tone.
"Fine, we'll drop it." Said the kid who beat up the girl in a frightened tone to the boy apparently named Sasu, hmm sounds like Sasuke.
"Later, good luck with the exams." Sasu said smirked at me, though it felt like he was challenging me.
"Hey, you, what's your name?" Said the kid who watched the girl got socked.
"Me?" Sasu said turning, "My names Sasu Ahihcu." He said smirking widely.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw Shikamaru's eyebrows scrunch.
"What's your name?" Sasu said turning to me, the smirk never left his face.
"Naruto Uzamaki! Future hokage." I said confidently. His smirk just kept getting wider and finally breaking out into a grin.
"Nice, to meet you Naruto." He said before turning and walking away. His voice sounded so familiar! I just couldn't put my figure on it. I wonder who he really is?
Tell me if you get what I did to Sasuke's last name, lol. I might not update often cause I'm already back in school. It really sucks. Review if you can. Oh, and Sasuke just couldn't him self when he talked to Naruto. This is mainly a fic with major friendship with Sasuke and Naruto. No yaoi I hate that stuff... please review.
