Chapter 1:

A Morning Surprise

Hold on, we've still got living to do, so far gone. See life for someone like you, in your eyes. You showed me reasons to live, take time. The time it takes to forgive.

It's my life, it'll change for the better. I've faced the light, it's worth the fight. See a new day, start a new way.
Get it straight, make it change for the better. –
Change For Better, Journey.

Pain, a monstrous pain in his eyes. It felt as if someone was clawing his eyes and managing. He shifted uncomfortably, his eyes twitching and scrunched tight. He wanted to writher and shout in pain but he wouldn't allow himself such pleasure. Madara would call him weak; he could not show weakness to that man - or whatever he was now.

He had a blazing headache; a small tickle feeling in the back of his head told him that he shouldn't be there. Another part of his mind, felt as it was thumping - not helping his burning headache. He shoved the feeling to the side, not realizing that he couldn't shove pain aside like some fly, but then as all flies it came back with new ferocity.

Screaming at someone or something, he felt his head pulse and he held his aching head into his hands. Trying to dull the pain, even a bit, he gave up quickly - it never worked - and sat up. Groggily opening his eyes, he couldn't believe he had actually closed them. He never slept - he never could. His head always hurt, his heart always felt heavy and his conscious wouldn't allow him the pleasure.

As soon as he opened his eyes the pain in-tensed, he scrunched his eyes together again. Feeling something hot and sticky run down his cheeks. He wiped them, feeling the moister on his hands.

They weren't tears; they were too thick to be tears.

He wanted to confirm what he believed but his eyes wouldn't let him. They were refusing to listen to him as if his body and mind were in two separate beings. He felt them drip onto the sheets he was underneath; he scrunched his hands into them. He couldn't smudge the blood into his eyes, his eyes that were cursed, that were making him blind, he couldn't - he wouldn't ruin them any more.

He felt the warm blood; it dripped onto his legs now, since they had passed through his thick sheets. He wondered where his team was, was this one of Madara's hideouts? It certainly was a lot warmer then his other ones, if it was, but he couldn't put his finger on why it was familiar. His thinking wasn't helping his pummeling headache; he wiped the bloodied tears that fell, away.

Letting those drip off his hand slowly, as he swept his legs from the bloody puddle on his bed. His legs landed on a tatami mat carpet, it felt familiar and welcoming under his feet. His headache wouldn't let him think anymore then those few thoughts, he stood.

Wavering on his feet slightly, he grabbed his shoulder. It was as if someone was clawing at him, his leg muscles also felt heavy and torn. He hadn't felt it before with his blinding headache but as he used the functions they ambushed him to a world of physical pain.

Mental pain had already swallowed his being long ago.

He felt the familiar pressure of the Mangekyou Sharingan, the small twinge behind his eyes and a massive pain at the lower back of his head. He tried to turn it off but the twinge tightened, forming itself onto a painful knot.

He padded quickly to where he somehow knew the door was – his eyes still closed. Opening it quietly, letting the familiar ruffle of wood, calm him. He tried to ignore the pain as he sloppily walked down the short hall, to the top of the stairs.

He didn't feel too good but then - did he ever, something in the back of his mind kept screaming at him. He almost lazily-painfully padded down the stairs. Wincing at each step sent a jolt through his body. He didn't even register that if it was one of Madara's bases then someone would be on to him moving already.

The pain in his eyes lessened somewhat by the time he reached the bottom step. He also realized that he had a plain black slacks and no shirt on as he looked down at himself. He stumbled forward, to where? He didn't know. He just needed to find Karin, yes Karin could heal him. He tried to sense her presence, her nearly familiar but irritating-to-no-end presence was long gone - lost.

For the first time he looked around the house he was in. The first thing that caught his crimson eyes was a calendar. He stumbled to it, laying his hand on the walls for support. He didn't care that he was splattering blood everywhere. He had more important things to worry about. Such as Madara's demise and more importantly…Itachi's and the clan's vengeance. Just thinking of them made his blood boil and he was sure his killing intent was leaking out.

He ignored the newfound rage in him and focused on the calendar as much as his eyes would let him. He blinked, all the rage, the fury and killing intent recoiled in itself and he did something very un-Uchiha. He shouted in confusion and surprise.

"What in the fucking moon, is that supposed to mean?" He heard feet shuffle from above him, probably wanting to know where the noise, swearing and killing intent was coming from. "Crap." He muttered almost sadly.

The calendar said that his birthday was tomorrow - of course he had forgotten but that was not the entire surprise. He knew he would forget, it was the fact that it was his tenth birthday tomorrow.

He gave the room a swift glance. It was just as he remembered it. Clean except for the blood that he had splattered, the familiar family pictures hung on the counter by the door. Itachi in all of them - his mother was smiling and his father was not but he seemed to be trying to smile.

He checked the date, about 2 and a half months later and the clan would all be killed…by Itachi but only with the council's orders. He heard some feet rush down the stairs, their chakra signals alert with panic but yet so familiar, it made tears come to his eyes unexpectedly. He managed to get over his initial shock and ignored how his body wanted to crawl in on itself. He raced down the few steps - passing the small shoes that should have fit him perfectly - he ran out the front door.

His bloodied tracks guiding his now dead family members to him but as he rushed to the rooftops. He swallowed his pain like a bitter medicine and carried on. Pumping his chakra into his bruised feet, his warm blood dripping down his face. He was sure that he was supposed to have a fatal wound in his abdomen but he just felt the pain as the skin had been healed but the damage inside had been left to rot.

He felt so crazed up at that he barely noticed the where he was going until he had made it. Out of the lights, where the crickets were chirping even though it was right in the middle of Konoha. The shops were familiar from all the times he had passed them when he was younger.

He looked around again, noticing how everything was blurrier then it usually was. He felt dizzy and he stumbled, the darkness swallowed him up as he fell off the house with a thud.

"Sasuke-Kun…" He groaned, when he finally got his sense of hearing back. His head still ached, though not as worse as it once had. "Sasuke-Kun…"He scrunched his eyes shut before trying to open them. The voice…sounded like Sakura's.

He opened his eyes, having his guess, correct. She was leaning nearly over him but further away then he guessed she would due to who he was. The room triggered something in his memory and he fit it to that of Naruto's dingy apartment. The morning sun was already up, signifying that he had been asleep for a few hours at least.

He sat up rapidly, his body going tense all of a sudden as he believed himself to be in an enemy's territory. Sakura put a hand up in a signal of surrender. "Don't panic, I'm not going to do anything." He looked distrustfully at her, he moved quickly off the bed to the opposite side that she was standing on. Onto the pile of dirty clothes that littered the floor.

"You should take it easy, you had some heavy wounds." Sasuke only narrowed his eyes at her; he still hadn't placed all his thoughts together. What was he to do? "Stay here for now; Naruto-Kun is checking the surrounding area, so he'll be here soon."

Sakura kept her emerald gaze on Sasuke but he had not moved an inch. She sighed, before taking what she had used as medical equipment from the bedroom and walked through the threshold and into the small kitchen with a rickety table.

It would take time for Sasuke to trust them, if he ever did again. He was acting like a caged animal that was searching for a way out. She would have to fix that somehow, she sat at the table and placed her chin on her hand while the other one tapped the dirty table.

She was going to have to turn their team into a family, one that wouldn't break. Now, how did one do that?

Sasuke let out a breath, though kept it low so Sakura would not hear. What was he supposed to do? Everything he had ever known and learnt from had not happened yet. Did that make everything that he had learnt, unimportant.

He leaned on the yellow wall behind him, he slid down. His bare back scraping against it, he brought his knees to his chest and breathed in. He tried to locate the source of the thumping – for it was still happening. He cleared his mind as much as he could but the thumping continued.

A thought suddenly came to him. What had happened to their younger selves? The ones they had taken the place of. Sasuke tried to calm himself, from all the havoc that had taken over him.

He moved to sit crossed legged, clasping his hands together as he meditated and sunk into his subconscious. All he saw was darkness; he looked down on himself as he outstretched his hand. It was its usual pale, he was wearing a black shirt as well as black khaki pants, he was barefooted.

He walked slowly through his consciousness; he didn't know where he was going. It was dark that was all he knew, as if he was blind to the world around him - the only thing he saw was himself. Was that supposed to mean something?

He sat in his conscious, much like he was doing with his body. He leaned on nothing as he tried to sense his younger self. If his younger self was gone then what would that make Sasuke? Dead, un-dead dead, or inexistent?

He had to find him; he took a deep relaxing breath. Letting his mind wander to his troubling new problems that were already old news of the past.

Here the Uchiha's aren't dead yet, so does that mean I shouldn't try to avenge them. I mean their not dead, or should I kill the elders knowing what they would do? It would be no point to kill the elders - it would just make it easier for the Uchiha to attack. And as much as I hate to admit it, the Uchiha can't rule.

He maybe an Uchiha but in his consciousness, he looked from the third parties point of view. Whenever he had done such a thing, he had never listened to his own thoughts but now. Now he had a second chance and he was going to take it.

The Uchiha's are too arrogant and pride-filled. They'll get the civilians and shinobi killed. They would plan for war with other nations, if the other Nations did not attack first. They would know of the civil war and attack sending the hidden villagers into another war.

The loss would be too great; it would be losing my family all over again and I would not be the only one. That would not work. The only way fit will be to talk to the Uchiha's and convince them wrong but convincing pride filled arrogates wont be an easy job.

They wouldn't listen to anyone on the outside. They would only listen to another Uchiha - if anything. Then why don't I try and convince them - tell them what would happen…no that would only cause them to attack sooner.

This was proving to be tricky. He took a deep breath to calm himself.

Let me think. I'm going to have to talk them out of it but how? They won't listen…well it's the only way. The massacre cannot happen again. No one should have to go through that.

He felt something poke his conscious mind, his subconscious turned his head. To see a little ball of black hair walk up to him, tears on his deathly pale face. He noticed Sasuke sitting there and without thinking sprinted off towards him.

Sasuke could only stare at his younger self, tear treks ran along his face and his eyes were bloodshot. The Sharingan printed into his eyes, the child was shivering. Younger Sasuke looked at him, trying to see if he was real.

Younger Sasuke touched Sasuke's pale shoulder lightly; he jumped when he found it was solid to him. Hope flickered in his round eyes; he gulped his sweaty palms shivering.

"Um…mister…do you know how to get out of here?" He cringed back, almost thinking that Sasuke would lash out at him. Were there things that lashed out in Sasuke's mind? Sasuke noticed that on his younger selves cheek held a small red line, indicating a bloody scratch.

Sasuke lifted his hand slowly, younger Sasuke cringed away but when he saw that older Sasuke brushed away some blood that had run down his cheek. He relaxed a bit. Younger Sasuke let his walls break as he started sobbing lightly, in fear he probably thought this was a bad dream, a hellish nightmare and that his Nii-san would be there to wake him up and comfort him.

Sasuke felt sorry for his younger self, he didn't think it was good to be weak or child like but he also could not see the innocent child's dream be crushed. He couldn't, not like his had. He reached for the small boy, picking him up - noticing how light he was - and sitting him on his lap.

Letting the cold boy cry into his shoulder, as Sasuke petted his hair. It brought memories when he felt the baby locks, many things had changed from that time.

It was a while before younger Sasuke calmed down, still swallowing his fears and gulping his innocence to oblivion. Younger Sasuke sniffled a few times, his breathing no longer irregular.

"What's your name?" Younger Sasuke spoke slowly, his voice echoing off the non-existent walls. Sasuke wasn't sure how to answer that.

"Me...?" Sasuke spoke for the first time, making the younger boy look at his eyes that were the same. Though on one level they weren't, one was mature and darker. Oh so darker that one wondered how much pain he held to live with it in his soul. "You can call me Taka…I'll help you."

Sasuke spoke slowly; he really did want to help. He just didn't know if that would be at his risk of some sort. He also couldn't let younger Sasuke know that he was his older self. Younger Sasuke looked up at him, smiling lightly at him.

"Taka-nii-san, I'm Sasuke…" His smile widened a bit at his introduction. "I was asleep…and then I was here…Is this all a dream?" His younger voice sounded so innocent, so love filled. It warmed his heart somewhat to hear that voice again. For that voice was his childhood and past.

"No I don't think so Sasuke-Chan…" Younger Sasuke's face dropped, sadness fell into his eyes and Sasuke wished he hadn't said such things. Fear came next…" Hey, How about I call you Pup?" Sasuke didn't know where it came from; he just didn't want his younger self to be sad. His eyes filled with such sadness and fear that they glazed over…it was one of the best puppy dog eyes he had ever seen.

Pup's eyes lightened up immediately a certain flicker that wasn't there before brightened and shone and Sasuke was familiar with seeing it. Pup smiled largely, scrunching his hand into Sasuke's shirt - afraid he would disappear and he would be alone again.

Fear was wracking Pup's brain and Sasuke saw it all, he willed it to stop. He did not realize that he was willing his younger self from losing him innocence. Sasuke stood as gracefully as a man could with a child clutching his shirt. Pup's eyes filled with un-shed tears unable to hold them back. Taka-nii-san was going to leave him alone again with the scary dark shadows and monsters.

He was about to walk but Pup pulled on his hand urging him with his eyes to not go near the vicious creatures that lived in Sasuke's mind. "Pup, I'm not going to leave you, okay? Let's find you a place to stay."

Pup nodded but still wouldn't move. Sasuke knew all to well what he wanted, what he needed - in an act of security Sasuke bent to Pup's level and turned around allowing Pup to climb onto his back. As he felt hands tighten around his neck and small bare less feet around his waist.

Sasuke stood up, one arm around his back like a chair as the other was ready by his side. Pup buried his head in between Sasuke's head and shoulder blades. Peeking his charcoal black eyes out from behind Sasuke's shoulder.

"Where is it safe?" Pup asked him in a hushed tone - overflowing with fear.

Sasuke wished he knew the answer.

There had to be some place safe, or some place that was not filled with darkness. He wasn't so dark and monstrous…was he? He still had his areas…maybe…he defiantly had some good memories. So there had to be a comforting place for his younger self to stay.

Sasuke kept walking forward; Sasuke could not see the walls only that there was a path underneath his feet. There was a small slithering sound; Sasuke knew it was not him or younger Sasuke. Younger Sasuke made a small noise in the back of his throat, trying to get Sasuke to swallow him up.

Sasuke paused in his steps, activating his Sharingan and looking around. He saw nothing, well nothing with chakra but what would hurt them without chakra? He decided to keep the child from choking himself in fear, so he spoke.

"Well Pup, what's so scary here?" Sasuke wasn't normally one to start up a conversation but this was his younger self and Sasuke knew that he had to keep things moving because if he didn't the fear and sadness would take over. Sasuke hoped he could make it better.

"Well there were snakes all over the p-place here, they all seemed angry and…scary." Sasuke tried to look over his shoulder at younger Sasuke as he whispered the last word. Knowing that even at the age of nine he had the Uchiha pride, the adults taught it to even their youngest.

Even Sasuke knew his pride got in his way; well it wasn't too late to teach his younger self differently. "You know if you're scared of something you have to tell people, so they can help you get over your fears." Sasuke saw the confused look on Pup's face. He chuckled.

He was going to have to explain this without any 'difficult' words. "Okay, well you know all the older ninja's of your village." It wasn't his village, in no sense at all. He waited for Pup's nod in confirmation. A small smile spreading across his baby-fat filled cheeks.

"Well, once they were all scared of something and if your enemy knows that they'll use it against you. So what you can do first, which is the easy way out but not as good. Is that you can tell your team mates to help you. But if your alone then that doesn't work, does it?" Younger Sasuke shook his head enthusiastically; it was easy to tell he was very interested in the conversation. Sasuke let an amused smirk appear in his face.

"You can't pretend that you don't have any fears because everyone does and so one must face fears and eliminate them. Understand?" Pup nodded enthusiastically again making Sasuke's smirk grow.

"I wanna be a hero who faces their fears, I'm kinda scared of being alone. I'll have to get over it. Wont I?" Sasuke nodded in Pup's direction, recalling with familiarity what Pup said through his head.

"Well, a ninja isn't always a hero…actually shinobi are defiantly not hero." Pup looked surprised, he was sure that they were all heroes. Sasuke knew he was thinking of Itachi. Itachi-Nii was a ninja - wasn't he a hero?

"A ninja isn't a hero just because he is a ninja. It's what the ninja does to become a hero. If he always chooses good, he always believes he can succeed, if he helps other people and shinobi and he doesn't want anything in return. He just does it because he is happy to do it and helping other people is what makes him happy." Sasuke was thinking of one on particular, Naruto. Naruto really was a perfect shinobi by Konoha's book. He didn't agree with why Naruto tried to save him from himself but then again Sasuke knew he secretly needed Naruto's support.

It made him feel as if he wasn't a completely failure. If he was then Naruto wouldn't bother with him, he would move onto the next old runaway. He wished many times that he would but then again he pleaded that Naruto would never replace him. That he would keep hanging on the bond Sasuke thought he had cut, that he would glue the invisible but precious string of bonds back together.

Though Sasuke knew he would have to help him tie it back again. And Sasuke was afraid that his precious people would be taken from him again.

"Taka…Taka-nii-tama…are you okay?"

"Hm…oh yeah, I was just wrapped in some thoughts…" Sasuke sighed heavily, even in his own consciousness he was tired. It took a while but Pup released his hold around Sasuke's neck a bit, his breathing becoming slower as younger Sasuke finally fell asleep.

Sasuke felt the muscles relax on his back, the small arms around him hanging round his shoulders. He didn't like it, he didn't like the fact that his younger self was stuck in such an unstable place to live until Sasuke found a way out - even if it was his fault -. He had to make sure that younger Sasuke did not disappear as he took his place.

Sasuke willed himself to stay in his conscious as he returned to his body. It was possible, to keep his conscious sprit moving around in his brain as the shinobi carried on outside his own head. It was just tiring and the shinobi didn't usually have a need to do so.

As Sasuke returned to his body, his senses told him he was no longer alone in the room. He must have been deep into consciousness if he hadn't sensed that. His thoughts were confirmed with the familiar presence of Naruto.

He re-opened his dark charcoal eyes, resting them on the blonde that was currently sitting on the bed looking at him. He took a deep breath, finishing his meditation. Also making sure that he had not disappeared in his mind. He felt the tickle at the back of his head that signified that Pup was safe and still sleeping.

"Well it took you time, you were in deep, weren't you?" Naruto smiled over at him. One leg folded to him as the other hung off the edge of the bed. If Sasuke was correct then it was noon already, time passes fast in ones conscious. Sasuke said nothing about that but looked at Naruto. Wondering if it was just himself that had found his younger self.

"Naruto…" Sasuke started. "…Do you know where they are?" Naruto looked at him confused. Well it was true even Sasuke wouldn't understand who he was talking about. "Our younger selves, the ones from this time."

Naruto look at him as if he hadn't thought about it. His blue orbs calculating - something Sasuke was not used to seeing - he looked at Sasuke again. Closing his eyes for a brief second then returning after he thought was confirmed.

"I don't know. Well younger Naruto is defiantly not in my head. Only the Kyuubi, of course, it seems as if he came with us." Naruto huffed to what seemed to be annoyance but then set his sapphires on Sasuke.

"Why? Do you see yours? That would be so cool! A young Sasuke! I wonder how you were when you were younger. Were you such an ass like you are now or…"Sasuke cut him off with a look, unable to here his ranting again. He had a big enough headache.

"I do." He frowned before mumbling. "I'm not sure why you can't find yours." He thought it over, only speaking since he did not want to change the subject to say something more unstable like, the future.

Naruto thought about it for a second. "No, only a trace of something foreign that I'm sure is not the Kyuubi. But it could be something else…maybe." Naruto understood. He understood what Sasuke was thinking of. "I don't think it is anything …"

Naruto saw Sasuke's death glare, which was directed at him, for Sasuke was feeling angry that Naruto was not caring more about himself. He didn't know why but it was just felt natural, one of the most natural things that had happened.

Naruto did not know a lot about the new Sasuke but he hoped to be a brother to him, like Itachi was. Most likely he wouldn't be able to be leap to Itachi's level but he could damn well try.

Naruto stood up. "Well I think we got to figure out how we got here, since it's bothering me that I can't find out." Sasuke sighed before standing and following Naruto into the kitchen. Sakura was already sitting by the table but as they came she pushed away from the table with a smile.

It wasn't as awkward as it could have been, Sasuke sat on a chair that was by a table, which he turned around and sat on backwards - straddling the chair. Naruto leaned on the table, his younger selves remains of ramen on the table. Sakura crossed her arms and legs, while Naruto leaned on the table.

"Okay, we gotta figure out why were here, how we got here? All that stuff." Naruto started thinking over what happened. His face scrunched in concentration.

"The final attack, I think is the cause. Your Sharingan has the ability to control time and space…" Sakura pointed to Sasuke, which nodded in return confirming her thoughts. He crossed his arms and laid his chin on them. He felt so tired.

She turned to Naruto. "The Kyuubi's chakra that was unstable and floating through the air. Then me with my chakra ball - which I made with healing chakra. I think the combination took us here but that wouldn't just normally happen…" She paused as she thought it over. "We're missing something."

Naruto nodded, indicating that those were his thoughts. He turned to Sasuke. "So what do you think?" Sasuke wasn't really sure to think; it kind of unnerved him to see how they trusted him already and wanted his opinion in things. That was just strange for him, but he decided to answer seeing as Sakura was also looking at him.

"It could be to do with our thoughts…the Sharingan acts on people's thoughts and feelings…What were you two thinking at the point of the attack?" Sasuke asked turning his attention to the other two. He didn't like being on the spot to much. Even though he had his stuck up Uchiha side. He also had his Sasuke side; sometimes he hated the Uchiha name since it controlled his life but he would never admit it, not even to himself.

"I was thinking…that maybe it would be better if some things never happened and that if I could, I would change it." Sakura spoke quietly.

"I thought that it didn't have to be that way and that maybe I could done something's differently." Naruto joined in, his eyes seemed far away as he remembered.

Sasuke hated to admit it but…"Something like that." Naruto and Sakura smiled at him, he shrugged not used to such a look. He knew they did not see it in him, he defiantly did not see it in himself.

"Okay so we know we got here because we all thought of going back and changing things…so probably if we want to get back. We have to change…stuff." Naruto ended cleverly.

"Coming up with a plan would be the best strategy, though we're going to have to be just being here has probably caused numerous problems." Sakura took a breath, calming herself. "This morning I screamed my head off and I escaped through the window before my mum could check on me. That has to have a consequence." Sasuke snorted under his breath, if that had a consequence then him swearing in the middle of the night, his 8 year old self going missing as well as his blood on the walls, the floors and bed.

"Sasuke-Kun, what happened at your house?" Sakura asked him. A suspicious look on her lightly tanned face.

"Well, I woke up with pain in my eyes. That's all." Sasuke ended it at that. Unable to admit just yet that he had most likely overreacted and caused more a ruckus then he could have. Naruto rolled his eyes. He sat up and stretched.

"Well we need clothes and…food." Sakura smiled, before standing up.

"I'll get it. I could use some shopping, you have any money?" She asked, with a pleasant smile.

Naruto pointed to one of the cupboards. "Under the can of chopped vegetables." She muttered a thanks and left to collect the money before jumping through the largest window in the house, a scarf over her hair and a smile on her face.

Sasuke looked down, Naruto obviously felt awkward since he laughed his sheepish chuckle before starting up a conversation.

"We need to find out what we are going to do about your family. I get the feeling it didn't go to well when you woke up?" Naruto chuckled the last sentence out. Sasuke certainly needed advice on how to handle his issue.

"Lets just say absolutely horrific would be an understatement." Naruto laughed at that, which then made Sasuke glare at him. He wasn't used to sharing something that happened to him with another – an uncertainty that had stopped him before.

"What'd you do?" Naruto seated himself more comfortably on the table, ready for Sasuke's answer and for a good laugh. It was always fun to know when Sasuke screwed up.

"Well you know I still had the pain of the wounds I had during the…battle. I was also with the Mangekyou Sharingan and if you have ever tried taking control of time and space, you would know that it was painful." Sasuke paused, he was not used to talking or telling anyone about himself or things that had happened to him but he forced himself to proceed.

"My eyes wouldn't revert back to normal for a while and I was crying blood. I told you the rest…anyway. So I got up and walked…blind down the steps. By the time I had reached the bottom, the blood had stopped dripping. I still didn't know where I was." Sasuke ran his hand through his hair to calm himself down. What was he going to do about his family? The whole clan! The whole fucking clan!

"I saw a calendar, blood was everywhere I walked. The house probably never looked worse…yet." Naruto knew he was stalling, oh how much an Uchiha could stall. Naruto laughed, taking it on himself to guess Sasuke's reaction.

"Hmm…you ran into a wall?" Sasuke looked at him like he was crazy. "Tripped over your own legs?" Sasuke rolled his eyes, stopping at the top to send a small prayer to god to get him out of that very much needed hell hole.

"You shouted bloody murder…" Sasuke's face went blank and a bored expression arrived to settle on his face. Naruto laughed, that was so un-Sasuke to shout in surprise. "What did you shout?"

Sasuke scowled under his breath, this was getting him nowhere. "Nothing special, then I said crap that's it …you happy now?" Sasuke scowled again at Naruto's legendary grin. "We have more important things to deal with, Naruto."

Naruto shrugged. "We got over the worst, the funs gonna begin now." Naruto said as he walked to the largest window in the small apartment. Looking longingly outside, Sasuke watched him, knowing he agreed wholeheartedly with what was said.
