Normal POV
Naruto finally realized after ten minutes of jumping through some trees that he was being followed. He paniced and tried to think of a way to escape. Tears welled up in his eyes as he thought of Sakura's look of hate before she joined the group. His vision was so blurry and he was so distracted he didn't hear the incoming kunia. It pierced him in the leg and he fell of the branch. He was about to hit the ground when he felt arms catch him. He saw a flash of pink and for a second hoped that Sakura had changed her mind and was going to help him. His hopes were crushed when he saw her face. It was a look of pure hatred. Almost as if he had burned her, she dropped him. He winced as the kunia dug deeper into his leg.
He was about to stand up when a blow to his head made him drop back down. Colors flashed before his eyes and for a strange moment he thought "Much prettier than the normal darkness..." Soon the rest of the group was on him and the started beating on him. Naruto vaguly noticed Sasuke wasn't with them. All Naruto could do was curl into a ball and curse himself. After all that training he still got beaten up by the resident villagers and shinobi. Blackness stared to creep up into his vision and his last thought was "Sasuke..." before everything went completely dark and he fell unconsious.
With Sasuke
Sasuke POV
I am pissed. No...I am beyond pissed. All the pieces fit together now. All the glares, the name calling, the odd bursts of red power Naruto had, everything. He couldn't believe how ignorant these people were to actually believe that Naruto was the Kyuubi and was waiting to kill them. It was...mind boggling. He promised himself that he wouldn't let anyone hurt him anymore. With that in mind he pushed more chakara into his legs and sped off to find Naruto.
With Naruto
Normal POV
Naruto slowly began to wake. He groaned and slowly sat up. His cloths were all torn and there was dried blood everywhere. He groaned again and checked himself for any major injuries. It seemed he had been out for a while as most of them were already healed. At least they didn't feel the need to rape him. He was to "dirty" for them and they didn't want to have their way with a demon. Naruto sighed and put his head on his knees. He heard a crack of thunder but didn't move. It started to rain but he didn't care. He just sat there and cried. It had been a long time since he had let his emotions get to him like this but he didn't care anymore. After a while he stood up slowly and started walking carelessly, not paying any attention to where he was going. Eventually he came across a waterfall and he looked down to the bottom of it. Lots of rocks. "Hmmm...maybe I could. No one would care." With that in his mind he stepped towards the edge.
Normal POV
"Oh god no..." There he was, standing on a ledge of a waterfall. He was soaked to the bone like Sasuke. His cloths were torn and there was evidence of washed away blood. Sasuke practically growled at that. When he noticed Naruto's face however, he paled in shock. Instead of the normal grinning face he was used to seeing, he saw a completely broken and depressed face. Sasuke was amazed. He had never seen that emotion on his face. It was...frightening. He slowly approached Naruto and noticed that he took no notice.
"Naruto." Naruto flinched at the voice and turned around. When he spotted Sasuke he went wide-eyed and searched for a way to escape. Sasuke's brow came together in confusion and hesitently reached for him. Naruto looked so scared...he wanted to help. When Naruto noticed his hand he tried to take a small step back but as he was already at the edge his foot hit nothing and he almost fell. He would have if Sasuke hadn't lunged foward and grab his arm. Naruto collapsed onto his knees and glared at him. Sasuke was shocked. Why was Naruto angry at him?
"Naruto. What happened? Are you ok?" Sasuke asked. Naruto just looked away and silent tears made their way down his face. "Naruto, please talk to me. Whats wrong?" Sasuke looked at Naruto worryingly. Naruto looked up and muttered, "Why did you save me? I'm the demon remember. Why did you help the demon?" To say Sasuke was shocked was an understatement. Why would he ask a thing like that? "Naruto what are you talking about? You are not a demon!" Naruto just shook his head and stared at the ground. He looked so helpless that Sasuke couldn't help but get on his knees and hug him. He felt Naruto stiffin under him but ignored it.
Slowly Sasuke released him and looked at Naruto's face. He was shocked but he was also crying again. "Why do you care?! You heard those men! I'm a demon! I killed all those people! Even Sakura agreed!" At Sakura's name Sasuke growled lightly and he pushed down his anger. He would deal with the banshee later. Sasuke gently grabbed Naruto's chin and looked in his eyes. "Listen to me Naruto. You. Are. Not. A. Demon. You're no where near a demon! If you were even half the demon the Kyuubi was then they wouldn't think twice about attacking you like that. You are a hero to this village!"
Naruto looked up at Sasuke in shock. He had thought Sasuke would jump at a chance to attack him once he realized the truth but here he was, helping him and sticking up for him. A small smile formed at his lips. "Sasuke cares..." Sasuke noticed Naruto looked very weak and went to pick him up. "Come on Naruto. We are going to the hospital." Naruto sqeacked when he was picked up and his arms immediatly went around the Uchiha's neck. He blushed but shook his head. "No Sasuke. I don't want to go back there. There is nothing there for me." Sasuke stayed silent for a moment mulling this over. If they didn't go back where would they go? Maybe they could go to the Mist and visit Tazuna. Sasuke nodded. "Ok Naruto we won't go back. I have most of my things with me anyway. Is there anything you need?" Naruto sadly looked down and shook his head. "No, the villagers burnt my appartment."
Sasuke scowled but didn't comment. Once he made sure he had a good grip on Naruto, he sped off towards the village exit. He slowly sneaked past the guards and continued away. They stopped a few times and rested. Naruto didn't want to leave Sasuke's side and Sasuke didn't mind at all. Sasuke had asked where Naruto would like to go and they had discussed it. They had desided to go to Suna and see Gaara. They stopped a few times to get supplies and continued on their journey.
Suna
They finally reached Suna. Naruto was bouncing with excitment at seeing Gaara again. When they got to the entrance they were stopped by Suna ninjas. When they saw that it was Naruto and Sasuke they led them to Gaara. When Naruto spotted Gaara he pratically ran him over and gave him a hug. Sasuke felt a twinge of jealously but let it go. At least Naruto was happy. After Sasuke had explained the situation to Gaara, Gaara invited them to stay in his house. He also sent a message to Tsunade to inform her that he no longer wanted to be allied with Konoha. If this was how they treated Naruto, then he wanted nothing to do with them.
As time went on, Naruto's emotional wounds healed and he was as happy as ever. The people in Suna excepted him with open arms. He never got the glares and the names calling. He had many friends. Sasuke stood by and was always there for him. One day Sasuke had surprised Naruto by coming up to him and kissing him. Naruto recalled that to be the best day in his life. Naruto had excepted the he liked Sasuke by the time they had reached Suna but never had the courage to tell him. He was so happy that Sasuke felt the same way. Sasuke was also relieved that Naruto excepted him. When he had gathered enough courage to kiss Naruto, he was scared to death. He was afraid Naruto didn't like him like that but he got a surprised. So did Gaara as he had walked in to see them all over each other on the floor of his living room. They both couldn't believe how lucky they were. Naruto often recalled a few words the Sandaime told him. 'There will always be a possible second chance Naruto. Just remember that it is never too late to live.'
