How Will I Know
By: esmtz
Naruto POV
Everything was really blurry but I could still make out the two figures that were in front of me, Itachi Uchiha and his partner Kisame.
"Well well looks like I get to fight you again" Kisame says "let me guess you forgot all about me again well let me refreshen your memory!"
What looks like a big sword is lifted upwards and Kisame runs toward whoever he was aiming for.
"Gai look out!" I hear Kakashi yell and then I start hearing noises as if someone was fending off the attacks.
"Don't worry my team's got this one, Kakashi you and your team take care of Itachi" I hear Gai say.
"Got it….Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura lets go!" Kakashi says.
From the corner of my eye I saw two figures quickly making their way to Itachi and I now was really confused on who was who.
"Great how are we supposed to figure out which one is Sasuke's brother?" Sakura says next to me.
"Don't worry Sakura we'll figure something out" I said but I started sweating a little.
"Naruto the one on the right is Itachi!" I hear Neji say and I nod.
"Stay here Sakura!"
I quickly make our way over there and making sure it was him I throw a few of my shuriken at him and as the figure turns and blocks them I see that it was Itachi. Suddenly he was blasted by an attack but then vanishes.
"Aw man where did he go?!" Sasuke says.
"Even with my sharingan I can't exactly pinpoint him out" Kakashi says as I see his figure looking around.
"But your attack managed to hit him!" I said as I looked at the spot but I still didn't see anything.
"Actually it didn't" Sasuke replied "I know how my brother is he isn't easy to take down at all even to get him directly with a powerful attack would take some serious skill that even we don't have"
"You mean no one here not even Kakashi sensei?!" I said shocked.
"Not even me Naruto" Kakashi replied.
"LOOK OUT!" I heard Neji yell as Sasuke, Kakashi and I turn around and see that Itachi was already making his move.
"Don't look at his eyes!" Kakashi warns us as I look down.
"Ok but how are we supposed to…." I was interrupted as I was knocked off my feet and sent flying as I hit what felt like a tree.
"NARUTO!" Sasuke and Neji yelled.
I get back up.
"Ok that's it shadow clone jutsu!" I make the hand signs and out comes 9 more of me. As the rest go fight I keep one with me as I prepare to do my rasengan.
"Ok guys now we got him!" the other me says as he and the rest of me's keep Itachi from moving.
I start running forward as well as Kakashi and Sasuke.
"Rasengan! Chidori! Lightning Blade!"
Just as we get there however our attacks were demolished.
"What just happened?!" I asked horrified.
"I think somehow he managed to stop our attacks but how I don't know" Kakashi responds.
"GAI SENSEI!" I hear bushy brow yell as well as noticing the mist getting thicker.
"What's going on?!" I yell but I get no answer from anyone as I run around looking for any of the others but mostly Neji and Sasuke.
"Guys this isn't funny answer me!" I yell but still nothing "what is going on?" I said to myself.
I keep looking around until I finally spot a figure and I run towards it and I notice that it was Sasuke.
"Sasuke didn't you hear me? What's happening why can't I find anyone else?"
He turns around and I immediately notice that he looked exactly as he did before he left as well as having that mark all over his body.
"Sasuke…?"
"You couldn't save me Naruto and now look what I'm turning into" I watch in horror as he slowly turns into what he looked like when I fought him the last time I saw him "what made you think that you could save me? You want to know what I think? I think you don't deserve to be hokage I think that you'd be better off dead"
I started tearing up.
"Sasuke I'm so sorry I really tried I…."
"You didn't try at all Naruto if you had I wouldn't be like this and I wouldn't have left!" he says growling as he grabs me around my neck and starts choking me as he lifts me off the ground "face it Naruto you know you can't save anybody and you being around at all is putting not only your so called friends in danger but the entire village" he squeezes really hard and I try gasping for air "I think I should just kill you now but what fun would that be?" he grins evilly as tears started falling down my face.
"Sasu…ke" I barely managed to say.
Narrator POV
The mist slowly started clearing up and everyone was on the ground.
"Where is Itachi and Kisame?!" Sakura yells making everyone look around.
"I don't know I think they're gone…." Tenten says.
Neji and Sasuke both look around frantically and they both turn white as they find that Naruto was also gone.
"Where's Naruto?!" Both of them yelled.
"Up here with us" Kisame says making everyone look up as they find Kisame and Itachi, with Naruto unconscious in his arms, on top of a mountain.
"PUT HIM DOWN ITACHI NOW!" Sasuke screams as everyone starts getting up except for Gai who was knocked out cold.
"I don't think so little brother say your last goodbyes right now"
Itachi and Kisame leave with Naruto and both Sasuke and Neji scream.
"NARUTO!!"
