Chapter 4
Tears & Hate
"If a demom loses control of theirself they are to be hunted down and killed."
Sasuke sat up and rubbed his eyes. "Where am I?" He noticed Naruto was sitting on the chair asleep. "This… This is my house…" He yawned. "What happened…?" His head was aching and his body felt sore. "Naruto did something weird and I passed out." Sasuke glared at Naruto. "YOU!" He grabbed Naruto shirt and shook him. "What did you do?!"
Naruto looked at Sasuke. "You're dreaming Sasuke…" He put his hand on his head. "Lay down… You still have a fever."
Sasuke looked at him confused. "Fever?" His head began to pound. He felt dizzy and lied down. "Shit…"
Naruto sighed and stood up. "I'll be right back…"
Sasuke stared at him confused. He couldn't understand what happened. "Was that… A dream…!? It couldn't have been…" He noticed there was a washrag on the pillow. "Did he… Stay with me the entire time?" Sasuke bit his lip causing it to bleed then licked the blood. "What's going on?"
Naruto stared at the new scar on his hand. It didn't hurt but it was still there and very visible. "Is it really okay to lie to Sasuke?" He ran his hand through his hair usually silky hair that was not badly tangled and matted. "I'm such an idiot..."
--
Temari stared at the troublesome redhead and sighed. "Let me guess... You fought with Sasuke again?"
Gaara stared at the large gash in his leg and the bruise that surronded it. "There was an Angel, with the Uchiha brat... How did he obtain a fucking ANGEL!?" His blue eyes were filled with hate and rage.
Temari lowered her head. Why did Gaara have to be such a crude person? All she wanted was to be a good sister for him but he would never accept her. "Gaara... Please just stop now... I don't want you to end up like 'Him'... I'm just trying to help you! I really don't want anything to happen to you! I love you so much!"
Gaara glared at his sister. "Don't tell me what to do! You're never going to be like her!"
Temari's eyes widened and she stared blankly at her feet allowing a few tears to fall. "Gaara... I..." With that she left his room without another objection.
Gaara licked the dark crimson blood that leaked from his arm. "You're just not her... She is never coming back."
--
Sasuke stared at Naruto blanky. He kept wondering what Naruto was up to. His silence was unusual and he was eating ramen staring out the window as if he was in some far off land. It pissed the raven off to no end. "Naruto what is with you?"
"Thinking."
"I don't believe you." Sasuke hissed out. "Tell me!" He got out of the bed and hovered over the blonde. "NOW!"
Naruto looked up at him the looked away quickly as if seeing Sasuke's face sickened him. "I am thinking, okay?!"
Sasuke threw the bowl of ramen across the room. "Naruto!" He took a deep breath and he stared into Naruto's sapphire eyes. "Tell me..."
Naruto stood up and exposed his shoulder to sasuke. "Drink..."
Sasuke looked at him confused. "What the f--" Naruto was beginning to sound crazy.
"Sasuke, you haven't had any blood since yesterday... So please..."
Sasuke grabbed the back of Naruto's hair and brought his face inches away from Naruto's. "Why won't you tell me what is going on?"
Naruto shifted his eyes away from Sasuke. "I'll tell you if you drink my blood."
Sasuke glared at him. "Why!?"
Naruto touched the side of Sasuke's face.
Sasuke opened his mouth. "Naru--"
Naruto pressed his finger against Sasuke's sharpest tooth causing it to bleed. A painful expression showed on Naruto's face. "Drink..."
Sasuke's eyes suddenly turned crimson. "S-shit..." He began to suck on his finger then he ran his tougue against Naruto's wrist.
Naruto looked away and a light red tint brushed across his cheeks.
Sasuke sank his teeth into Naruto's thin wrist and he began to drink the warm liquid again.
Naruto stared at Sasuke's beautiful crimson eyes. They were truely, amazing.
Sasuke pulled his teeth out of Naruto and licked the puncture holes. "Ha-happy?"
Naruto smiled his usual radiant smile. "Yes."
Sasuke looked away feeling a painful sting in his chest. "Don't smile like that after I drank your blood..."
"Whould you rather see me cry?" He said playfully.
"Tell me..."
Naruto sighed. "Guess there is no getting around it... What happened yesterday... Was real... Gaara and me fought... I hurt him badly but..." He held his scarred hand up. "I also suffered damnage..."
"But--"
"Why did I fight with Gaara? He may be the one who attemps what 'He' did seven years ago..."
"You mean the Dark Wars?"
Naruto nodded.
"Wait how do you know about that?! It's forbidden information!"
Naruto pointed at his head. "A dream... It's how I know everything..."
"Everything?"
"The rules and history of the Demon and Angels..."
Sasuke ripped on his dark locks of hair. "Damn it! This is ridiculious!" He couldn't understand what was happinging, and why was he involved with all this crap? Because of Naruto? Gaara? Or maybe, it was meant to happen from the beginning.
Naruto sighed. "If you accept it or not... It's going to happen..."
"What?"
"I don't know... Somebody told me that. He looked a lot like you too..."
"Sai..."
--
Sai let out a fierce sneeze. "Crap. Allergies." He ran his paintbrush up and down side to side making gental strokes. "I hope they win thier happiness... It would be nice to have a happy ending to this story." He stared at his creation. "A rose... A symbol of love..." He watched at the painting came alive and the rose whilted right befor Sai's eyes. "That's cruel..." He looked back at the dark figure. "Why are you so mean to me... Sakura..."
The pink hair girl sighed and her jade eyes showed just how broken she really was. She killed herself by cutting her own heart out because the pain that loving brouht her. Her name was Sakura Haruno. "Love is a curse. It slowly fades and whilts away when you begin to grow fond of it... Just like a rose."
Sai stared at the saddened girl. "You shouldn't be so gloomy... Everyone worries you will go and do something that will hurt all of us Demons..."
"Gaara."
"What about him?"
"He is next in line to be like 'Him'...
Sai's eyes widened. "Did you tell his sister?"
Sakura nodded. "She looked like she had been rejected again..."
Sai hung his head low. "Again, huh?"
"She should give up..."
Sai stared at the whilted flower. "Just because your pedals fell doesn't mean you can't start all over as a brand new seed..." He smiled. "Life isn't always great but still... You shouldn't give up... I learned that after I became a Demon... a little too late now I guess... Hn..."
Sakura faded into the dark leaving Sai alone.
"She sure is cold hearted... But she will definately find that person who will help that little seed blossum into an amazing flower that will compare to no other... And when her pedals fall again they will float to the earth with a beautiful ending." He drew two small cherry blossums. "There!" He watched as the pedals danced to the bottom of the page. "Beautiful..."
--
Temari knocked on the door and took in a deep breath. "Okay... Just be polite."
The door creaked open to reveal a beautiful blonde headed boy.
Naruto smiled brightly tiltling his head slightliy to the right. "Do you need something?"
She found herself staring into Naruto's intence blue eyes blushing. "I-I need to speak with Sasuke Uchiha."
Naruto's smiled faded slightly. "Are you shure you want to talk to him right now? He is in a kind of pissy mood."
She nodded. "It's very important..." She couldn't look him in the eyes, he was just too adorable and all she wanted to do was hug him and pinch his cheeks.
"Come in." Naruto watched her enter the house then closed the door. "So um... What do you want to talk to him about.
Temari looked around the house in amazement. "Just about my brother and a few other things I need him to take care of... Oh and I brought him something."She looked at Naruto. "Where is he?"
Naruto lead her to Sasuke room to see Sasuke sitting up staring out the window. "Sasuke, you have a visitor..." He smiled brightly and pushed Temari infrount of him. "I'll be in the kitchen cooking, be nice Sasuke!" After that he ran into the kitchen.
Sasuke rubbed his eyes. "What is it Temari?"
Temari's emerald eyes scanned the room. "It's about Gaara... And... The Angel."
sasuke looked at her now completely serious. "What about them?"
She stared into his dark onyx eyes. "Gaara is plotting something... He was talking to his other self about killing somebody."
Sasuke sighed. "That's never good... And what about the Angel?"
Temari pointed towards the other room. "Is that seriously him?"
Sasuke sighed. "Unbelievable, isn't it."
Temari was at loss of words. That kid? An adroable little kid was the Angel who sent Gaara home licking his wounds. Was that even possible?
"Temari?!"
She snapped back to realitly. "Sorry I was just thinking..."
He stared towards the kitchen. "He really insn't the type of person who should be in the middle of a battle like this... So why him? Why someone so delicate?"
"Gaara is after him, you know that don't you?" She stared at him with worried eyes. "Something could happen to him."
Sasuke looked down. "I know..."
There was a long and awkward silence.
Naruto walked into the room. "Look I made cookies for you two!"
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Naruto smiled and set them on the bed. "I'll be right back!" He dashed to the door and opened it. "Hello!"
Sapphire orbs collided with solemn jade ones.
"Where is Sasuke?"
"Inside..." He opened the door for her so she could come in. "She looks so lonely..."
Sakura walked into Sasuke's room and stared at Temari
and Sasuke. "Sasuke Uchiha, I need to talk to you."
Temari stood up. "I'll see you guys later." With that she vanished.
Naruto walked into the room. "You too?"
She looked at Naruto. "Yes..."
Naruto smiled. "Okay."
Saukra looked at Naruto. "So that is the Angel..."
Naruto stared at Sakura a bit curious. She looked like she had to cry but couldn't. "So... What happened to you?"
She pulled her shirt down slightly to show a treaturous scar. "When I was nineteen years old my boyfriend who got me pregnant left me alone to take care of my baby girl but thern I had to give the baby up for adoption because I could no longer support her. After that I went insane and lost all feelings of pain or emotion and that is when I cut my heart out and I went through all that because I thought my boyfriend really loved me but the truth was he just used me and threw me away and he never really cared for me and his daughter. That's why I am suffering now... But I found that bastard and I killed him, but it did help anything, I still don't have a reason to smile even though every once in a while I get to visit my little girl it's nothing to be happy about, She doesn't even know who I am."
Tears flowed down Naruto's face. "That's terrible, How can somebody go through with that?!"
Sasuke and Saukra stared at him shocked.
Naruto rubbed his eyes. "That's just terrible! And for it to effect you so much by making you numb, well doesn't that hurt more then anything? Have you even ever had the chance to cry for the sake of you daughter? Or even for yourself?" He hugged her tightly. "You can cry now... You deserve to see your daughter and tell her who you really are, and your boyfriend diserves way more than he got..."
Sakura's eyes widened and tears began to flow down her eyes. "You... What do you know?" She wrapped her arms around him and began to cry uncontrollably.
Sasuke stared at the scene in disbeliefe. "Sakura... Is crying?! How?!"
Naruto rubbed her back. "I lost everything once too..."
Sasuke's eyes widened. "N-Naruto?" Sasuke was now dumbfounded.
--
Sakura rubbed her eyes. "Thank you Naruto... It's been so long since I last cried... And don't forget okay Sasuke?" She waved goodbye and left.
Naruto looked a Sasuke. "What did you guys talk about?"
"A job I have to do, how did you do that?" He looked at Naruto curiously. "Is it magic?"
Naruto grinned. "No it's nothing special... I just... Said what I believed in..." He smiled. "I hope she gets to tell her daughter. She is supposed to save her."
Sasuke looked at him confused. "What?"
Naruto's eyes widened then he looked away. "Nothing... Forget I said anything."
Sasuke sighed and wrapped his arm around Naruto. "You're very odd, you know that right?" He looked at Naruto and grinned. "Hey Naruto, did you do that to me too?"
Naruto looked at him confused. "What do you mean?"
Sasuke looked at him then looked up. "I'm not sure... All I know is... You have really changed me..." He smiled at Naruto. "Thanks..."
Naruto blushed lightly. "It's nothing... Really."
