Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke are ready for the test that will make them ninja, and ready to do what needs to be done to do so.
Chapter 4: Feelings unsure
Naruto glared at Kakashi sensei for his words, she was going to make him regret seeing her as a class clown and the weak link of this team. Surprising her teammates, she pulled out her kunai and ran at Kakashi with instinct to kill; her thoughts were lost in that one instinct as she ran at him. Kakashi expected Naruto to do that and moved so fast that no one saw him grab Naruto's arm and he put her kunai at the back of her neck, Naruto glanced at Kakashi the moment she felt him grab her arm.
Kakashi could see the look within those blue eyes of her was the power of a tigress rising from her slumber, he smiled under his mask as he was reminded of his teacher and his wife…both have held the same killing intent in their eyes for their enemy as Naruto did.
"Don't be in such a hurry," he told her, shocking Sasuke and Sakura. They hadn't realized that he had moved like Naruto had…well, Sasuke may have, but not Sakura; it was clear to Kakashi, who was the weak links in the chain of this new team. "I didn't say start yet," Naruto could feel the rage inside of her begin stemming at his words, she struggled to get free of Kakashi's hold on her.
Sasuke and Sakura slowly stepped back from the two before Kakashi let Naruto go, who turned around to glare at him as she held her wrist. Sakura was stunned at Kakashi's speed, she was a little scared after seeing that display of speed and skill. Sasuke wasn't impressed, but was happy that their teacher was Jonin after all and that he may learn something from him. "But you came at me with the full intention of destroying me so…how can I say this? I'm starting to like you guys."
Naruto was knocked out of her daydreaming of the sight of Sasuke, she felt like the wind was knocked out of her and had send her soul soaring through the sky. "SASUKE!" She screamed at the top of her lungs as she stopped to stand on the head of the first Hokage's statue as Sasuke stopped and stood on the head of Madara Uchiha's statue. She watched him, waiting to turn around and look at her, but he just stood there. "SASUKE!" She screamed again, wanting him to look at her and her that he was sorry for being so stupid, and return to the village with her.
Her heart stopped for a moment when she saw him take a step forward, "Are you going to run off again?" She snapped at him, she didn't want him to leave her and Sakura behind. She didn't want to lose him.
Sasuke stopped at her words and slowly turned to face her, shocking her when his showed her his face. He looked at her, he wanted her to go away, he wanted her to be safe from the danger that she would face in the future. Naruto could barely keep from crying at the sight of the curse mark over half his face, he hated that he was going to be the reason that she cried again…he hated the sight of her tears. "So it's you…hopeless little princess," he said, calling her by the nickname that she hated hearing him call her. He remembered how he had started calling her that during their first real mission. How they fought and how they had worked as a team, how he had saved her from those needles…he remembered the test that they had done with Kakashi and how they had all passed. He looked at Naruto with total indifference when all he wanted was to go back with her…to tell her when he felt for her.
They were both going through all their memories together, how they had fought as a team and how they grow to care for each other with each passing day. How Sakura told Naruto of her feelings for Sasuke and went Itachi had attacked the village, they both knew that was when everything started to crumble around them. Naruto knew it was her fault for turning her back on him to let Sakura have what she wanted, she would hate herself for letting him go so…easily.
"She sent you, uh?" He asked, both of them knowing that he meant Sakura. Naruto said nothing as she thought of Sakura begging her to return Sasuke to her; it had hurt to hear her friend beg her to bring Sasuke back to her. Sasuke saw that pain, and knew that Naruto would just give him to Sakura and act like she felt nothing for him, but friendship.
"Like I already told Sakura-" he hoped that Naruto would let him go and wouldn't force him to get his Mangekyo Sharingan through her death. "-It's over; just leave me alone." It hurt to see her look at him with a mix of sorrow and anger, but it was needed. He could see it; every word that he said was a dagger to her heart and it was destroying him in her eyes, destroying the person that he had been in the time that they had known each other as friends. He would create a new image of himself for her to see, an image of him being the monster that his brother made him into.
He looked at her…hoping that each word was shattering her side of their bond.
oOo
Sakura sat in her room, waiting for them to come back soon. She knew that Naruto would die trying to bring Sasuke back to her; in the past…she would have hoped that Naruto really would die, but she had didn't anymore. She had come to see Naruto like she saw Ino…both a sister and a rival, she wanted Naruto to come home safe and sound with Sasuke.
She wanted them both back, so that they could be team 7 again.
oOo
Naruto dodged Sasuke before giving him her own blows, he didn't dodge her punches or kicks…simply taking them when she gave them to him. The pain seemed to blind her for some moment as she fought him, feeling numb to this punches and kicks. "Please Sasuke…return with me to the village," Naruto begged him when she pinned him down for a moment, struggling to keep him from breaking her hold on him.
"I will never return to the village, I told you that my path is that of hatred!" Sasuke told her breaking free of her hold and slamming her into the ground before she sent him flying through the air. But instead of going after him, Naruto took a breath to calm down before taking off her burned mini jacket, and went after Sasuke. Naruto knew that Sasuke was being half-hearted about fighting her, but he always had been like he was afraid of hurting her when they fought. She was going to change that, she was weaker than him when it came to fight because she was just as strong a fighter as him. She wasn't going home without him, she was going to make him see that what he was doing was wrong that he belong in the village with her, Sakura, Kakashi and the rest of their friends too.
"If that's the case then I'll have to beat you into a bloody pump, Sasuke." She shouted at him as she dodged his attack and created her clones. "Oh, then I'll have to stop going easy on you and show you the real power of my Sharingan!" He told her calmly, activating his Sharingan before he started killing her clones, leaving the real Naruto stunned as he did so. He was quick to grab her and stop her before she could do anything.
"Thanks to the Sharingan, I knew which was the real you the whole time." He whispered into her ear as his grip on her was becoming painful when he suddenly let her go to give her an uppercut and kick her away from him. He looked at her for a second, sorry that it would come to this, before doing the hand signals for his fireball jutsu.
Naruto was consumed by the flames of his fire like before, but she was not the only one for the forest around them was as well. He knew that she wasn't consumed by them though…she was too good to go out like that. He watched the flames, thinking of his family and all his bonds were lost to him; he hoped that she had run away from him, that he wouldn't have to kill her like she was forcing him to. Sasuke watched as the flames died down, making him think of when she would dance in the sky.
How she looked so beautiful and untouchable, it made him think of a holy being that would never be tainted by the evil that was humanity. "Is that truly that you got? Come on after all that big talk, that's it?" Naruto listened to him for a moment as she panted, thinking of what she should do next as she stood up and walked to him. Sasuke turned to her, making her hate the lifeless look with in his red eyes. "You still think we're on the same team…don't you?" Sasuke asked, already aware of her answer; Naruto looked at him, hoping that this useless fight between them would stop already.
"If you're not convinced yet-" Sasuke smiled at her before he started running towards her "-THEN I'LL HAVE TO SPELL IT OUT FOR YA!" Punching her in the face again, Naruto back flipped onto the tree behind her and use it to start a dance in the sky without realizing it. Sasuke was quick to follow her and joined into the dace without thinking or realizing it as well. "What are you waiting for? He asked as she dodged his punches in the air. "I want to see what the number one, hyperactive knothead ninja has got!" he shouted at her before kicking her in the stomach, finally realizing that he would have to kill her and forever hate himself for that being the only choice if he couldn't knock her out cold soon. Naruto so stunned for a moment by when he kicked that she wasn't prepared to block the incoming punch to her chest.
Naruto chocked on her own blood for a moment from the damage done by his punch that he started twisting before sending her to the water as he landed gracefully on Madara's seal of confrontation. He watched the water, waiting for her to come up…knowing that she would.
Naruto was pulled down, deep into the water, her body in pain from Sasuke. The water consumed her tears just like Sasuke's fire consumed the forest, she felt trapped in a cage, not knowing what do to about Sasuke. He had not been kidding, that punch had likely done a lot of damage to her body, he was trying to kill her and it hurt to know that. Naruto opened her her sky blue eyes when she felt her hit the bottom, she was surrounded by darkness when she did and realized that Neji had been right! Sasuke was lost in the darkness of his hatred for his brother and the loneliness that surrounded him, it had control of his heart and it was the Sasuke that she knew that was trying to kill her, but the darkness and loneliness that held him in their grip.
With that in her mind, she swam to the surface, to the light and Sasuke. She refused to let the darkness have him and let it hurt her best friend more so.
Sasuke wasn't surprised when he saw her surface, waited for her to explode on him and see what she would say. "What am I to you, now? We were comrades or have you forgotten all about that?" She whispered, her mind made up that she would grab hold of Sasuke and drag him back to the light, no matter to his answer to her question. "ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT ALL THE THINGS THAT WE DID IN SQUAD 7 MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO YOU NOW?" She shouted up at him, seeing that he was looking down on her like she was a lowly creature and him a god. She waited for her answer, knowing that he would give her one.
"No," He said, his mind going back to the day that he made a promise that he would get that power and would use it to destroy his brother. "They weren't meaningless, one thing was worthwhile…our friendship." Naruto stood up as she listened to him, becoming more and more confused by each word that came from his mouth. "We became best friends."
"we…became…best friends?" She whispered, knowing what he said was true, but that what they felt for each other was something more as well. "THEN WHY ARE WE FIGHTING?" she shouted, wanting all of this to end and to go home with him at her side. "I just told you," his words confusing her more so. "Because we're friends, there's far more meaning in destroying you." Naruto stared at him, stunned by the fact of Sasuke was being so foolish. "I can't understand that, but what I know is that for some reason, you want to destroy me, right Sasuke?" Naruto said minutes after hearing his words before she ran on the water and Sasuke allowed himself to fall from the seal of confrontation.
It was clear to the two of them that the true battle was about to begin when they reached each other.
oOo
"What did you say? You mean that you send Genin after Sasuke?" Kakashi asked Lady Tsunade, who was sorting through her paperwork for the mission that she wanted him to do. Finding the one that she was looking for, she looked at him. "Well, what else could I do? You know the state that this village is in right now," Kakashi sighed, disappointed that the Hokage didn't see the importance of this.
"Anyway, I already have a backup plan in place." Lady Tsunade said, making Kakashi feel a little better, but not a lot. It was clear to anyone that knew his student; a squad of Genin wouldn't be able to return Sasuke to the village, even with back up. He knew what he needed to do; turning around, he headed for the door "Where are you going? I have a mission for you here," Lady Tsunade said, getting the feeling that Kakashi was going to go and get his students back. Her words stop him in his tracks for a moment before he continued walking with an excuse in hand, knowing that Lady Tsunade saw right through him.
But he didn't expect Sakura to be waiting for him outside though. This just wasn't his day.
"Kakashi sensei, it's already been two full days now and Sasuke left the village." Kakashi stared at the pained look of Sakura's face as she said Sasuke's name. She was so worried about him and wanted him back home as soon as possible, just as she hoped that he would return with Naruto at his side and the others of the group as well. It had hurt so bad when he had rejected her love for him and told her that he cared for another…without telling her who that other person was, clearly trying to spare her of more hurt and loss. Though a part of her knew that it was…Naruto that held Sasuke's heart.
oOo
Blocked…they had blocked each other's fist with their other hand, locking them in that moment. "You know, I'm kind of glad that you followed me here. Kakashi and Sakura aren't here now; no one is going to stop us now like last time." He said into Naruto's ear, reminding them both of the question of who was the stronger of the two of them. Angered by his words, she broke the lock that they were in, giving Sasuke the chance to sneak his hand into her hip poach again before letting himself fall off the cliff.
"This time, we settle it once and for all!" Sasuke said, his eyes were so fiery that it sent shivers down her spine. "IT WILL BE THE END OF YOU!" He shouted at her as he threw the kunai at her, to which Naruto threw a shuriken at it, cancelling the two weapons out. The sound rang out like the sound of a bell as she realized that Sasuke had done that to distract her from his next attack. Barely blocking the kick to her head, Sasuke sent Naruto falling down in his place as he jumped to the tip of the Hokage's stone fingers. "CHIDORI!" Naruto noticed how he let the chakra gather in his hand.
Naruto landed with elegance on the water, feeling Sasuke's red eyes burn into her. "You jerk, is that what it's going to take? If so, I'll beat you into oblivion-" She snapped at him, creating a clone when Sasuke release the chakra at his feet and began to fall. The clone was quick to create the Rasengan in Naruto's hand, "RASENGAN!" She waited until she saw him, running towards her before she started running towards him.
It was then that the kunai in the water, moments before they clashed.
oOo
Kakashi summoned his ninja hounds, noticing how Sakura hadn't listened to him. But he wasn't surprised when he thought about how those two idiots had fought each other in front of her. "Okay, guys. Fan out and start looking for Sasuke's and Naruto's scent." Kakashi ordered, thinking of the different locations that they could be. Pakkun's ear twitched when Kakashi said Sasuke's and Naruto's names, knowing in his gut that something wasn't right if his master saw to bring him and the others out to find them.
"Did you say Princess and Sasuke?" He questioned; Pakkun wanted to know more about what was going on. "What's going on? What happened to the two of them?"
"I'll explain later, right now time is of the essence." Kakashi told them…he wasn't sure how to explain what was going on with the two of his students and didn't see this as the time to discuss it. The other dogs started to bark, psyching themselves up for the hunt ahead. They were ready to go and do as their master had ordered, and simply waited for their leader to give them the go. "Right."
"Let me now the moment that you pick up their scent, I'll be there immediately. Alright scatter!" The ninja hounds burst into motion before Kakashi was even done saying the word.
oOo
Chakra burst from their two attacks, giving them the appearance of wave-like wings coming from their hands. Staring into each other's eyes, they didn't notice how their attack threw the land and water into chaos; just their actions were throwing their friendship into chaos. The world went quiet with the only noise being the clash of their jutsu; both of the young ninja pushed at the other, refusing to lose the fight to the other. Both seeing what this moment meant to them and in their own minds, for one it was the moment of hope and for the other it was a moment of dread.
Naruto thought of his words. "They weren't meaningless, one thing was worthwhile…our friendship. We became best friends." What was she to think about in this situation, the knowledge of that he saw them as friends and that he was suddenly throwing it all away? What was she to think about that? The only that came to mind was to prove to him that she was his friend that she would be his support when he needed her.
She would prove it to him with her Rasengan.
Naruto pushed her Rasengan harder into Sasuke's Chidori, willing her feelings to reach him behind that wall of darkness that he was hiding behind when she suddenly thought of the picture of their team…burning. Sasuke pushed his Chidori harder into her Rasengan, forcing the two to reach their max and cause an explosion that forced they back from each other, each hitting the water hard. Naruto started to sink into the water, not understanding why she couldn't reach Sasuke. Sasuke sink into the water as well, wishing that Naruto would leave him be instead of insisting to bring him back to the village.
Why couldn't she simply see that he was meant for the village since it wasn't giving him the power that he needed to avenge his clan. It wasn't giving him the power to destroy his brother; instead it was making him weaker, and he couldn't have that. Sasuke needed power, no matter the cost to himself. The cost was likely to be the live of his best friend, Naruto; with that in mind, Sasuke opened his eyes and swam for the surface.
But when he reached the surface, his thoughts started to circle around the past of when they had last fought; how Naruto had been the stronger of the two of them, and the rage that he had felt at learning that knowledge. Sasuke stared at the water ahead of him as he felt the rage rise within him, he waited for Naruto rise from the depths of the dark water. The rage boiled as he stared at her, floating in the water as she stared at the sky like it would have the answers that she was seeking at that moment. Staring at her tattered and bruised body, he thought of his next plan of attack; he knew that he needed to reserve his last Chidori to kill her with.
Naruto stared at the sky, keeping her tears within as she thought of what to do next. What was she to do? How was she to make Sasuke see what she saw? How was she going to make him come home with her when she could reach him. Turning her head, she knew that he was serious, he was dead serious and it was breaking her anew inside.
Pullling herself out of the water to knee on its surface, she couldn't keep the tears in as she stared back at him. Her chest suddenly hurt so bad like someone was crushing her from the inside…but how was that possible? This pain hurt more than anything that she could remember, she wondered if it would kill her then and there until she stared into Sasuke's eyes.
They were red as blood and they screamed of a similar pain. The sight of his eyes, made her forget her own pain and focus on Sasuke. She needed to stop the doubt that she felt and fight Sasuke to bring him home. She took calming breaths as she watch the curse seal begin to cover his skin and change him from the friend that she knew; she could feel the warmth of her tears continue to run down her face, but she didn't wipe them away. There was no point in doing so, she wanted him to see the pain that she felt and she wanted him to understand what she was feeling.
"You know what they say, Naruto. When two ninjas are powerful enough, they are able to read each other's thoughts with simply an exchange of fists-" Sasuke said as he continued to stare at her. "-without ever saying a single word…get it?" Naruto stared into his eyes, never seeing within them for a second.
"You have always been naïve, Princess." Slowly she started to stand up with Sasuke doing the same. "Tell me…do you know my thoughts?" Sasuke asked with a smile that disgusted her in that moment. "CAN YOU TELL WHAT ON MY MIND?" The smile faded as Sasuke moved to do another jutsu, not giving her time to answer his question. "FIRE STYLE: PHINOEX FLOWER JUTSU!" Hundreds of fireballs flew from Sasuke's mouth and Naruto jumped, barely avoiding the attack.
Seizing the moment, Sasuke moved to attack…though he was stunned for a moment when she calmly turned her head in time to see him before he kicked her in the face. She never took her eyes off him as she was send flying into the water, her mind thinking of all the time that had past and how he had been a relief to her in her endless loneliness. Landing on her feet, she took his punch to the gut without defence, feeling the pain rip at her insides for a moment. Taking every punch and kick without defence, she simply keep her sky blue eyes on him, letting him pound his pain into her flesh.
"Sasuke…do you know what I'm thinking?" She whispered when he had grabbed her and held her up in the air with one fist as he gathered chakra for his Chidori in the other. She wanted to know if he had hear the thoughts of what she felt for him, she want him to know that she wanted to be great like him and she wanted him to look at her too. She wanted him to see her as his rival and…something more.
She stared into his eyes, not afraid of what he was about to do because apart of her whispered that she would die from this. Staring into those red eyes of his, she knew what his thoughts were, just as she knew that he knew what hers were. Her tears dried as she felt her chakra rise within her body, wondering if every moment with him was a lie that she had made out to not drown in her loneliness. Sasuke stared into her sky blue eyes, slit in two about what he was about to do to Naruto. One part of him was excited and eager to kill the one person that he cared for above all others, and another part dread and begged for this to not come to pass.
Pain bloomed in both of them as the world fell into silence again. Both were lost in their memories of better times, and how they both begged for forgiveness from the other; for Naruto, it was the pain that she hadn't seen in his eyes beforehand, and for Sasuke, it was doing this horrible to her and not being able to stop it from happening. He needed his feeling for her to die in that moment. "Forgive me."
oOo
Sasuke stared at Naruto's closed eyes as a tear ran down his face. The light of his jutsu shinning bright still, and Naruto's hand still held his arm tightly like she didn't want him to stop or make her let go of him. But he pulled his arm out of her with a smile and grabbed her throat, wanting to put her out of her misery. Feeling the blood that cover his arm, hot like a fire…he continued to stared at her closed eyes. A part of him dying with each second that she didn't open them and look at him again, he wanted her to look at him again. Putting more pressure on her throat, he whispered his farewell to her in his head.
When the red eyes of an animal suddenly opened to glared at him instead of sky blue, her hand gripped his and forced him to release her. Red chakra whirled around her like a whirlpool that would leash out at him at any moment as it did with the water and the wind.
Sasuke's mind questioned what was going on and why she was surrounded by the red chakra. Sasuke almost took a step back with he saw the chakra take the form of the nine-tailed Fox, he was stunned by awe and fear. Naruto simply stared at him as her wound healed before Sasuke's eyes. Taking the stance for them to continue their fight, Naruto continued to glared at him as she waiting for him to do the same. "SASUKE!" She shouted when he took too long for her liking. "I'M NOT LETTING HIM TAKE YOU AWAY!" Fear pumped through Sasuke's veins at her words, "I'LL BREAK EVERY BONE IN YOUR BODY IF THAT'S WHAT'S NEEDED TO STOP YOU FROM GOING ANYWHERE!"
Shock and slightly afraid, Sasuke watched the red chakra slowly fade away, like it was melting into her skin, but the power and force of the chakra had yet to fade. Sasuke glowered at her, hating that she had this kind of power sleeping within her body where he did not. "I have had enough of this, what the hell are you?" He growled out at her, he could see that all her bruises and injuries were healed and that she looked like she had been in a fight with him at all…except for the tatter and ripped black tank top that she was wear and the blood that covered her arm and the blood at her mouth. Her golden hair stood on end and her eyes were still red, she looked like an animal that had stepped out of hell.
"I'm friend! And that's way I'm telling you this, I'm not going to let a monster like Orocchimaru get a hold of you." Naruto whispered, her voice quiet and calm, held her doubt and concern for him. But Sasuke couldn't or rather refuse to hear it over the roar of power and rage. "But if you won't listen to reason then I'll have to break every bone in your body." She told him, the warning of what to come was clear as crystal in her voice. With a punch in the air, the water exploded and surprised Sasuke as she had hoped for.
Using the surprise that she had gained, Naruto went in for the attack and punched him senseless as hard as she could in that moment. Sasuke went flying from her attack and he couldn't help but wonder what made her so different now.
Naruto didn't stop or back down from her endless attacks on Sasuke, who had great difficulty countering them. Sasuke would barely keep track of her as she dancing in the air above him, attacking down on him like a bird of prey tease and taunting her prey before going in for the killing blow. But Sasuke refused to be her prey, waiting for the right timing for her to be over head for his jutsu. "FIRE STYLE: FIREBALL JUTSU!"
Fire burst up from him, heading towards her like a monster rushing towards its helpless prey. But Naruto wasn't helpless again the fire and with a subconscious thought, her chakra pushed the fire back down, faster than it had rose up with. The water protested the move and Sasuke felt the force of the protest of the water as well; leave Naruto to go after him. Hitting Sasuke as hard she could, they were both devoured by the water around them; Naruto didn't let up for a second as she continued to attack Sasuke in the water until she saw the gasp of air that escaped him.
Sasuke rushed to the surface for air with Naruto right behind him, knowing that she was likely to attack him again when they reached the surface and took in that needed breathe of air. To which he was right, the moment that they were out of the water, they jumped into the air and started fighting. Punch and kicking one another like the fast wind that pounded against the strong mountain. Naruto finally had enough of punching the crap out of Sasuke and slammed him into the cliffs around them.
Naruto landed gracefully and went to knee beside Sasuke as she grabbed his shirt and that would force him to look at her when he opened his eyes. "Now let's go! Enough is enough already! Snap out of it!" She growled at him; she was getting even more pissed off that he wasn't looking at her yet. "If you don't come to your senses soon, I'll have to break all your bone and drag you back to the village! So get up, Sasuke!" She snapped at him, her voice forcing him to wake up from the dark slumber that she had sent him into. Sasuke looked at her when he opened his red eyes, "Just shut up for once." He ordered; feeling rage at her lack of understanding to his actions. "What the hell do you know about it? It's like you have a family in the first place! YOU WERE ON YOUR OWN RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING! WHAT MAKE YOU THINK YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT, HUH?"
Naruto unconscious loosened her grip on his shirt at his words because it was true and it hurt. She didn't know about the bonds of family, but she had learned of the bonds of friendship…wasn't that almost as good? "I'm suffering because I had those ties…how on earth could you possible understand what-" Sasuke grabbed her hand forced her off of him-"FEELS LIKE TO LOSE ALL THAT!"
They fell together, with Sasuke still holding her hand in his own; his grip was so tight and shaking like he was telling her that he was scared to let her go.
Some of Naruto's smoke bombs fell out of her hip pouch before they landed hard on the rocky side of the river, breaking apart as the smoke tried to embrace them. They landed into the river in perfect unison as stared at each other from the logs that they stood on. "It's true that I have no idea what it's like to have parents or a brother…but when I'm with Iruka sensei, I wonder if that's what it's like to have a father…and when I'm with you…" She stopped, she didn't know what she felt for Sasuke was that of a brother or something more.
"Why? Why Naruto, would you go this far for me?" Sasuke asked; he felt happy that she would go this far for him, but sad as well. "Because this is the first time that I have ever had a bond like this…I'm not doing this just for Sakura, but for myself as well as you!" Sasuke stared into her sky blue eyes, wondering what she felt for him and what he felt for her.
P.S
It's a daydream! Naruto was thinking of how they became a team as she was running to save Sasuke.
