How was it? Did you enjoy the first part? :D I hope you'll want to continue reading (Duh you're reading it already aren't you). This chapter was written really quickly *hn -_-* and I don't have an editor so it could be much better. Be gentle and ENJOY!

************************Flashback************************

The rain fell softly, hiding his tears and brushing the emotions from his body like a gentle hand. Naruto had always been fond of the rain. It calmed him; kept him company. Hushing away the hurt and leaving him numb. However tonight he felt anything but comforted.

The quiet drops that splashed around him were washing away the evidence. Evidence that Sasuke had existed. Footprints. the blood and tears. Their battle on the rocks and in the water. His scent in the air. All being strained away, leaving Naruto alone in the cauldron.

He lifted a shaking hand to cover his heart and flinched when warm liquid curled around his fingers. He became suddenly aware of the sickly sweet smell in the air, the metal taste in his mouth, the pain.

A chill wracked through his body as the rain above fell with more force.

Things around him began to contort out of shape, their terrible cries piercing through his mind. He covered his ears and squeezed his eyes shut, desperately trying to block out the twisted figures encircling him. They shrieked with laughter at his efforts, shouting out hurtful words.

"FAILURE!"

"ALONE!"

"WHAT A DISAPOINTMENT!"

"YOU PROMISED!"

Naruto's eyes snapped open, rage misting his vision. He thrashed wildly at the distorted figures around him. "MONSTERS!" he cried out, harsh tears bruising his face. Time then seemed to stand still. The figures around him ceased their movement, staring at him with blank eyes. Naruto buried his face in his hand. "Monsters" he choked out again.

Soft hands rubbed his back, embracing him with a gentle scent and wiping away his tears. He looked up, frightened, into the face of himself. A smile tugged on the other Naruto's lips, revealing pointed teeth. Its eyes became slits and its gentle features become sharp and menacing. A deep sound rumbled from the other Naruto's lips; a growl and a laugh curling together in dance. It entwined fingers with Naruto, leaning close.

"Kill them"

Naruto. The only though on Kakashi's mind as he ran top speed towars the Valley of End.

The rain pounded heavily distorting his vision making the world look around him looked vibrant and dazzling. A sickly sweet reminder of life. Kaleidoscope shapes swirled about him, leaving him dizzy and with dulled senses though he had never been more alert.

Kakashi had lost sense of Sasuke's chakra signature a short while ago. Though he was getting closer, Naruto's familiar chakra was growing weaker with each passing second. He shuddered involuntarily, terrible thoughts of what he would find plaguing his mind.

Increasing his speed he paid no heed to the branches that whipped around him; clawing him back, screaming his fears.

"Don't go!"

"It's horrible, horrible!"

A riot of crows took wing ahead of him, shrieking in maniacal laughter.

"You'll never make it"

"never, never!"

"You can't save him"

"SHUT UP" Kakashi cried, silencing the voices in his mind. Chocking back tears he continues slashing blindly through the undergrowth in complete desperation to reach his student.

"Naruto, please be okay"
