Chapter 5:
When he woke up… Sasuke was angry… he was mad beyond belief… he wanted to kill the village elders…. then kill uchiha madara! Karin, Suigetsu and Jugo were sitting in the makeshift hideout with him… it was time to head home and have a chat with the sandiame hokage…
"We're heading for konoha as soon as night falls…"
"Nani! Sasuke… you have not yet healed entirely and are still weak from the battle with itachi… you should atleast wait till you.." Sasuke gave Karin a death glare and she faltered…
"Tch.,.. Sasuke… I'm not coming. I want to go get that sword from kisame, besides this is your revenge right? What do I gain out off it anyways.."
"Fine suigetsu you are free do as you please as long as you don't interfere with my plans. Jugo what do you want?"
"I will go with Sasuke because to me you are a reincarnation of kimmimaru…"
"That's settled then… suigetsu you can leave anytime you want. Karin, Jugo we have an hour till nightfall… it will take us 2Days to get to Konoha.. once we get there you both set up a camp in the forest close to the village and I shall go alone to speak with the sandime hokage. That's all for now.. rest while you can.. we wont be stopping on the way back"
Sasuke POV
The sun will set soon and we will be off… back to the village…. No…. back to my village..
I wonder if that dude is still running around looking for me… such a stubborn ass… it will be good to see him… and kakashi sensei and…. Sakura… She's grown up a lot… I remember seeing her from when they came to orochimarus hideout… I bet she still annoying and weak…
No! I have more important things to think about… I need to tell the sandime hokage everything… If she helps me then it will be good…. She has a problem with the root anyways… the other 2 elders need to be taken care of… I need to find out how I can meet the hokage without mobiki and the others interfering…There has to be a way…
Naruto… I'm not as far gone as you think I am… I didn't kill you that time because I swore I would never gain power the way itachi did… but I couldn't kill you even if I wanted to… Brother…
Konoha
Naruto froze momentarily as a light breeze swirled round him… His heart beat stopped and an image of one of sasuke's rare smiles passed before his eyes..
"Nanda Naruto?" Kiba hollered from a few steps ahead "Let's go… the Hokage is waiting"
"Ah…" He said and slowly and walked on..
2 Days Later
In the forest outside the entrance to the North Gate of Konoha…
"Jugo, Karin… stay hidden till I come back… do not engage in any combat unless it is absolutely necessary. Understood?"
"Hai!" they replied in unision
"I'll be back in the night or later today"
"Sasuke! Please be safe" Karin said blushing from ear to ear
Sasuke POV
I really get nauseated when she does that! Crazy woman!
Naruto, you'd better be there…
I entered wearing a Konoha headband.
It was one of Sakura's Spares… I took it when I left the village… Only because it would help me enter undetected someday… only because of that and no other sentimental reason
(A/N : Yea… Keep telling yourself that Sasuke kun)
And it worked… As usual there were no guards on the North Gate... I came up a little ahead and saw how terribly Konoha was destroyed… especially that bench next to the north gate… I remember like it was yesterday when I lay her down there… Stupid annoying girl… STOP!
A shinobi must not get distracted by emotions ever, besides I broke those bonds ages ago right.. she's probably happy with someone else like Neji or someone… That's just so... fucking perfect for her!
Naruto… where the fuck are you dude?
I decided to visit the part where the Uchiha clan was situated… I hid in the rubble and tried to listen to what the workmen were talking about..
End Sasuke POV
"I wonder why Tusnade Sama wanted this to be done, besides it's not like he's coming back!"
"But you heard Tusnade sama right… if she says that the Uchiha Clans part of the village shall be rebuilt exactly as it was before, then so it shall be done. That's that. No more argument on the matter… Get back to work! All of you!"
Hidden in the rubble Sasuke's heart skipped a beat and his eyes softened and a single tear of gratitude towards the hokage slipped out of his eye. Now he really had to find her and meet her as soon as possible, but first he needed to find Naruto and talk to him alone.
He slipped out and went towards the hokage mountain. From there he could see that most of the village was rebuilt… he remembered sitting there on the first day with Kakashi and listening to Naruto's dream about becoming a Hokage and him relating his ambitions... he remembered…
"Sasuke!"
Sasuke turned around and his eye grew wide….
