Disclaimer: I have said this pretty much ten times by now, but I don't own Naruto at all…yeah I think we all know this by now….
The Note
Branches flying by and the wind in her face; Senatae had been caught off guard and was now falling to the ground 75 miles or so down. You wouldn't think that the group of ninjas would be that far up in a tree. Well your right, after about five yards after falling, the branches suddenly stopped and Senatae and Naruko were looking straight down the side of one of the mountains that were located in the sound village.
"Shit!" Senatae shouted after seeing the ground quickly coming towards them. "Naruko let go of me!" He was still holding her the same way after he had originally tackled her.
"Why?!" Naruko shouted back trying to be heard over the wind. "I know you will just use me as a spring to grab a hold of the mountain side!"
"Naruko if you don't let go we will both die!" Senatae shouted back. They were now only about 50 miles from the ground and the mountain side was starting to curve inwards, and they would lose their only chance.
"How do I know you won't abandon me when I let you go?!" Naruko shouted back. He knew of the danger he was in but couldn't risk losing her again.
"You just have to trust me!" Senatae exclaimed.
"Why should I trust you?! You abandoned the village!" Naruko shouted in protest.
"Damit Naruko, if you don't we're both going to be killed!" Senatae was getting a little nervous, the distance was now about 40 miles and the cliff was getting farther and farther.
"Fine!" Naruko let go of her and they were now falling alone, and were now able to move better. They flipped so they weren't upside-down anymore and Senatae was closer to the cliff then Naruko was.
That's when it happened; Senatae took out a kunai from her sleeve and through it towards the cliff just barely making it stay. But she didn't grab Naruko's hand; she was going to let him fall to his death. She didn't even look back when she swinging to safety. She just left.
Naruko was surprised but he was almost expecting that, but now he had to work quickly. He had to get up to that cliff, save his life, and catch Senatae again.
Forming the hand sign multiple shadow clones started to connect, and after about the thirtieth one, a clone was able to grab the rock faces edge and stopping himself from falling nearly 25 miles away from the ground. He now had to climb all the way up again, this time on his clones that might unpoof if he hits them wrong with his foot, and he wasted no time at all.
It took him only ten to get to the edge he climbed so fast, Naruko was determined to find Senatae again.
"She couldn't be that far away could she?" Naruko thought to himself. He ran as fast as he could straight into the forest unsure where he was anymore. He only had to run for a few minutes though before he came to the border of a clearing.
Looking inside he saw the person that he had wanted to see. Uchiha Senatae. She was hunched over on the ground, and as Naruko looked closely she had just puked from the change in altitude. Naruko didn't blame her though because he felt like he was about to be sick too. She looked a lot more helpless because of it though, and if she still had the same attitude as before she would hate it if anyone saw her and would probably run even if she wasn't supposed to. So Naruko waited in silence for nearly twenty minutes.
"Why are you just standing there? I know you are there so come out," Senatae quietly said; she was obviously still sick.
"I was going to wait till you got done, so you wouldn't run off, but ok…" Naruko said trying to be funny, but he was starting to get sick.
"Hmph… It looks like you got stuck with the same thing I have…ugh-" Senatae was caught in the middle of her sentence with another flash of nausea. Naruko took this time to see what had become of his former girlfriend, and he didn't like what he saw.
Senatae had gotten a lot paler then before, and it wasn't just from the nausea. Her hair had gotten longer and a lot darker compared to Itachi's, and she had gotten a little taller, Naruko was still taller than her though. Even with all the years that she had been gone, Naruko still loved her.
"Why don't you come back to the village?" Naruko asked her after she had finished. Senatae didn't look at him; she just stared at the trees in front of her and said nothing. Naruko was looking for anything that might lead into what she was thinking but couldn't find anything. Senatae just had a lonely, sad look on her face that was stained with regret.
"Naruko, I'm sorry. But I can't tell you…" Senatae finally said in a voice that was barely audible.
"Why not?" Naruko started. "You have kept so many of your friends and family in the darkness and you even left me in the middle of the night. Though I can understand why with the massacre that had happened, but you didn't have to leave."
"You don't know the entire story that's why," Senatae answered quickly, "and, Naruko, you never can!" Senatae was trying hard not to lose it from the stress of not telling something, but what was it?
"Senatae, it's ok… I still love you," Naruko replied wrapping his arms around his once girlfriend, and as he thought about it she still was. "And I will always love you no matter what you do." And that was the truth and Senatae knew it. Senatae knew it so much actually that she didn't even try to fight his grasp because she knew she missed it.
"Well, well, well… what do we have here? A couple of trouble making lover burgs?" a voice came from the trees. Senatae must have known the voice to because she shot of the ground faster than Naruko had ever seen before.
"Kabuto! Why-where-when did you get here?" Senatae stuttered.
"Senatae I came looking for you after you didn't turn up in the half an hour you said you would. You really got Orochimaru worried," Kabuto answered walking out of the trees. He was still in disguise as the young brown haired boy from the dinner, but was starting to change back to his old self. Grey hair, glasses, and his old stupid purple outfit.
"Shit! I completely forgot the time…. I was having issues and stuff and forgot! Damit!" Senatae yelled as if Naruko wasn't there.
"I see if issues include having trouble with your boyfriend, Senatae you little brat," Kabuto accused at the eighteen-year-old.
"No it's not what you think far from it, both of us nearly fell to are deaths from falling off the edge about 35 miles up!" Senatae yelled in her defense. She was starting to get louder as the argument progressed and Naruko knew that his team was going to hear her soon.
"Excuses, excuses…we both know the truth…" Kabuto taunted trying to get on her nerves just because he could.
"Ugh! You little- you never listen do you! I told you that there was nothing going on!" Senatae shouted. She was blushing now and Naruko could see that she was trying hard not to punch the kid.
That was when Naruko heard his team come from behind him. He knew that they wouldn't be stupid enough to show themselves, but he didn't know whether or not the two of them had heard it. He doubted it though from all the arguing that hadn't stopped at all. Now all the team had to do was wait for the right moment to get both Senatae and a spy the Sound village had.
About five more minutes passed with just those two fighting, Naruko was still trying hard not to puke but it was starting to get worse, and Senatae was now completely red in the face from Kabuto's comments about what she and Naruko did, and Naruko was almost just as red by the comments too. Also, Senatae had started to stutter more of her words the more embarrassed she got, and by then her sentences started to make her sound like she was in -76° weather.
Then the moment they had been waiting for had come, Senatae grabbed Kabuto by the collar of his shirt and was about to kill him. Almost immediately after a swarm of kunai and shuriken attached to wire were thrown out of the trees wrapping Senatae and Kabuto together.
"Well that took forever," Kakashi said walking out from behind one of the trees. He obviously had been listening because his mask had a little dark spot where he had started to get a nosebleed. "Kabuto I really hope that you were just saying those things because you wanted to embarrass Senatae. Not from actually seeing those things because I don't want to have a talk with Naruko here."
Naruko looked at Kakashi with a look of that said 'Why did you just ask that question?' and answered for Kabuto, "Kakashi don't worry those things never happened, but right now I need to go and puke. I really don't like freefalling nearly 35 miles without a parachute." Naruko slowly made his way behind a tree and well yeah… you know what he did… yeah…
The two were now surrounded by six ninja and all of the ninja hounds, and to make it worse for them they tied together and Naruko was back adding one more ninja. With all this Kabuto only had one thing to say, "Well this sucks… Thanks a lot Senatae."
"Well if you hadn't bothered to accuse me of things I didn't do maybe I wouldn't have threatened you!" Senatae shot back.
"Senatae you know quite well that those were valid remarks!" Kabuto shouted back trying to sound smarter then he actually was.
"You know what- never mind I am going to deal with this later… right now we have to get back to the base and ditch these guys…. Ok…" Senatae said trying to cool herself down to her normal 'I really don't care' attitude she always used.
"Fine…..then we need to have a talk…." Kabuto replied.
Then without any warning the two of them started to disappear into what looked like invisible flames. No one would be able to stop them even if they tried but Naruko noticed something after they had left:
A small note….
Naruko slowly walked to where the paper was a picked it up to read;
Dear, Loser
Yeah, yeah I know you would never think a girl like me would actually respond to a guy like you, but there's something that you need to have a little more light on. Yes it's true that I still love you and always have, but that isn't it. If you go into my room and look underneath my mattress there is a small black book, if it isn't there turn to the little ones. That book used to be my diary when I was little, there is some things written about the war so you can skip that, but if you turn to the page that is dated November 23, 2003, you will find out what happened on that day… If you think right you will learn a few things about me that you never knew before. If you want to you can tell this to Sasuke and Hitake as well… I really don't care…And I don't blame you for wanting to know the reason why I went to the place I did, it isn't the best place in the world trust me… Though I don't think you will learn the point of it ever… at least I hope you don't…Don't worry, it's not your fault.
Love,
Senatae Uchiha
"Well, this answers are question of where we find out what happened," Naruko thought, "But I think it would still be a good idea to read the passages in between as well."
Naruko shoved to note into his pocket and headed to the others who were arguing with each other about how this could have been better. Naruko only grinned to himself as he walked up to them knowing that the encounter turned out better than anyone else knew.
"Come on guys, let's go home…." Naruko said with a smirk.
"But Naruko you know we could still catch up with her if we looked harder!" Sasuke shouted at the happy twenty-year-old. She was getting annoyed with his smirk.
"Don't worry Sasuke….I think some things will be explained when we get home and read that book. Trust me," Naruko replied not even looking at her. He was walking to the village and really didn't care if they didn't follow him; he just wanted to leave before something bad happened.
Soon Sasuke and everyone else was heading to the village, Sakura and Inarea were sent back sooner because they were needed at the hospital. Sasuke and Hitake were still moping about the whole thing, Kakashi was a little disappointed because he didn't get to fight Senatae or anyone for that matter, but Naruko was still as high-spirited as before. He just couldn't wait for them to finish the book.
Ok…. I'm done for this chapter… I don't think there will be any cussing in the next chapter, so yeah… it was just needed here…I mean I would cuss too if I was falling off a cliff with nothing to protect me…. So yeah, till next time… A Sisters Secret.
