Okay here's next chapter. Guys, this is not just about Sasuke being weak. It'll go beyond and next time Sasuke will get strong LOL :D


Chapter 4 - Saving You

Sasuke-

It went on like this for days, the bullies picked on him and when he went to school, the teacher would sometimes ask what happened when he got his face bruised. Sasuke would just say excuses like, 'I fell on my way down the stairs' or 'I hit the door when I was going to school' kind of stuff.

It was raining that day. Exactly seven days had passed and Itachi still hasn't gone back to the Uchiha District. When Sasuke was walking home from school on the seventh day since the Uchiha Massacre, Takeru and his gang beat him up pretty badly. They even struck a kunai on Sasuke's right leg. He also didn't have much chakra left and he was not feeling so good. Sasuke painfully limped home. He decided to go to the river for a shortcut. There was a bridge but it was much faster when you just walked on the water. Sasuke just hoped that he wouldn't run out of chakra while he was walking on the river because if he did and if he sinked... I don't think I can swim in my condition especially with this rain ... but besides, what is there to lose?

Sasuke gulped and began to focus his chakra to his feet and started walking as fast as he could. Which wasn't really fast due to his wounded leg. Sasuke began to feel tired and he could feel his chakra fading. Oh kuso... just a little more... The rain and the wind became worse. Sasuke was beginning to feel cold due to mixed rain and wind. Ugh... even the heavens hate me! After a while Sasuke's feet began to feel numb. I can't... Sasuke lost control over his feet which made him fall and sink in the water with a loud 'splash!'

Sasuke began to trash wildly with his arms. CAN'T BREATHE! Sasuke slowly sank and began to feel unconsciousness approaching. So this is how it ends... will you save me, nii-san?


Itachi-

Itachi looked at the weather and sighed. He was supposed to set out today to go to the Hidden Rain, but with the weather like this, he assumed it was best to wait for the storm to calm down. He was really bored until he heard a splash. He decided to check it out in case it was a threat so he got his coat and went outside the cave.

The storm was worse than he had expected. Some tall trees were sliced by the thundering lightning.

Itachi activated his Sharingan to check the area for any chakra source. Sure enough there was, a small chakra source 60 degrees west. That's in the river. Well who would go swimming at a time like this? Itachi went nearer to try and recognize the chakra signature better. He immediately recognized it even if he hadn't looked at the person. Of course, who wouldn't recognize the chakra of your own liitle brother?

"Sasuke?" Itachi looked at the river and saw Sasuke sinking and his eyes were closed. ?! Itachi didn't hesitate and jumped right into the river. He caught Sasuke's limp form swiftly and swam up and stood on the water. Itachi looked at Sasuke in shock trying to gather his thoughts. Get a grip Itachi! Sasuke's about to die stupid! Itachi ran to the shore and immediately began the CPR. He sighed in relief as Sasuke coughed up water, but Sasuke still didn't open his eyes. He just kept twitching and squirming and he was breathing heavily. What's wrong with him...

Itachi carried Sasuke into the cave he camped in. He used his Katon jutsu to dry his and Sasuke's clothes. He placed Sasuke gently in his sleeping bag. Itachi touched his forehead and sure enough it was burning hot. Sasuke had a high fever and he was shivering. Itachi took off his coat and wore it on Sasuke. He used his medical ninjutsu to heal Sasuke's leg but it drained him of chakra because he didn't know much of medic jutsu and he let his teammate kunoichi do those stuff. Itachi decided he would just stay with Sasuke until he got better and give him food when he woke up.

"What happened otouto..."


Please review! :D:D I think next chapter will include Sasuke going to the Mist or something. btw notice, I didn't do cliff hangers anymore LOL!
