I don't really like how this chapter turned out but oh well. You don't get to find out what Sasuke saw on the computer in this chapter either. Though may be in the next chapter. But you do get a small very tiny bit of fluf.

I also have good news. Due to an unfortunate accident involving my science teacher, gunpowder, and fire science projects are now optional. I was going to have to have at least a 1 month hiatus on this story to work on my science project but now I can update about once a week. Well I hope so at least 8th grade sucks but I'll se what I can do. so Read and review.

Chapter 4: Sorry

By:Harushi Karasunaki

The blond wasn't there. The damn blond wasn't there!

'Honestly!' Sasuke thought with a sigh as he sat down in a table behind the school where he usually went to think. It was lunch hour

After reviewing the information her had checked up on last night he had decided it would be best to keep the dobe under watch. However, how could he do that if said dobe wasn't there.

'We can't have another episode like that or it'll be hard to do anything to help.'

"Ne, Sasuke what's the matter. You look a bit down."

Sasuke looked up. There, in front of him was Sakura.

"That new kid is one of us. I did a little digging last night and found a few things."

Sasuke fished around in his backpack for a minute before pulling out a small stack of papers.

"Here." he said handing them to Sakura.

Sakura took the papers and quickly skimmed through their contents.

"T-this is!"

Sasuke nodded.

"Yeah it certainly looks like it"

"I didn't know there was another person in existence with those powers. But they're really hard to control aren't they? They often rebound on the user..."

"Yeah, but they're the ones with the strongest powers among us. Just like him..."

"Your brother."

Sasuke nodded.

"It's time I payed him a visit."

Help!

"Telepathy, but who?" Sakura said a bit confused

Someone please! Help me!

"I've got a pretty good idea. Sakura you stay here. I'm going to make sure." Sasuke said

"But-" Sasuke cut her off.

"You take care of things here. I would look weird if we were both gone and something happened."

"Ok...but if something happens call me, alright?"

"Yeah I will."

Sasuke took off running in the direction the call for help had come from.

-----------------------

It hurt. It hurt so much.

He had lost them for a little while but now it looked like his time had run out. They were coming. He could feel it. They were coming to kill him. He sent another telepathic message but he new it was futile. Why would any one help him. He was a threat to them all.

Uzumaki Naruto Didn't even know why he was even trying. Slumped against the alley wall like this he wondered, for not the first time, if death would be a better option then this. Running all the time never stopping always in fear that he would lose control of his powers again, like last time. He probably should have given up by now and if someone got hurt trying to save him he wouldn't know what to do. Besides they would have a hard time killing him anyway.

He looked down at the bullet wounds on his body. They were almost fully healed. yes, There was no need for someone to risk their life for him. So he layed back against the cool brick of the wall and stared up at the sky. A raven flew above him and he once again thought of that beautiful dark haired boy.

He would probably never see him again. It was a shame he was cute and he had been so mean to him. If he ever saw him again he would apologize...

They were here. Their bright gold badges glowing brightly against the dark blue of their uniform. They said they stood for justice but in reality they just couldn't boss around their peers so they made them selves feel more powerful by killing anything different that might, eventually gain a position of power above them. They were sick freaks.

Naruto closed his eyes and waited for the final blow to come. But it didn't... he heard grunts and screams and yelling. He opened one of his eyes a crack only to be shocked by the sight that met his eyes. He saw the boy, Sasuke, beating up the officers like they were nothing. Naruto's jaw nearly touched the floor.

When all of the officers were down Sasuke turned toward the blond.

"Are you ok, dobe?"

Naruto chose to ignore the insult and nodded.

"Good. Damn do you know how long it took to find you?"

Sasuke shook his head.

"Can you stand?"

Naruto nodded again.

"I think so" He stood up slowly only to fall back down in pain.

"I think my leg is broken. Bones take longer to heal than flesh."

Sasuke frowned. He really didn't like this posability but if it was the only way.

"I'll carry you."

Naruto blinked.

"What?"

A nerve in sasuke's forehead twitched

"I said I'll carry you so get on my back already, I don't have all day"

Naruto stuck out his tongue 'jerk.'

He was heavier than Sasuke expected but it was still not a problem for Sasuke.

"So your a mage, right?"

Sasuke nodded

"Yeah."

"What do you control."

"Fire."

"cool"

Naruto snuggled into Sasuke's back it was comfortable and he realized how tired he had been.

"I'm sorry."

Sasuke blinked

"For what?"

"For everything."

And with that Naruto fell asleep.
