I'm Soooo sorry for the long wait!
I had homework piled up on me when I started school.(I guess that's what you get for having honors classes...)
So after a long time of thinking and getting major writer blocks... I came up with the next chapter.
Ok it's not much but I pretty much have the whole story thought up and I believe that the others will be longer (I hope)
Anyway ON WITH THE SHOW!
Oh yeah I DON'T OWN NARUTO there HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!
I also don't own the song...
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Chapter 6
Under The Moonlight
This mission was getting crazier and crazier.
Hinata can sing...Naruto is afraid to sing... and Sasuke is going OOC on everyone!
Mostly to Sakura who was getting fed up with being there and not knowing why the heck they have to sing and dance on the stupid mission.( no wonder Kakashi didn't come...)
So leaving the task of getting Naruto out of a closet to Sasuke and Hinata... She decided to get to the bottom of all this and find out why their there in the first place.
Sakura returned to the dance hall to find Madame Nat still there (Galen went home... more on him later).
"... Oh Sakura! Is everything alright? You both left so suddenly..."
"Don't worry Madame Natalya, it was nothing"
inner: ' yeah right sasuke acting ooc on everyone is nothing'
'oh shut up I don't want to here is right now'
'oh no you didn't!'
'oh yes I did now go away.'
"Miss Sakura, is something wrong?"
"Oh, well you see there's a question that I've been meaning to ask you."
"Yes..."
"Well you see..."

-later that night in the girls room-
"So... you're saying that all this is to protect a gem?'
"Not just any gem Sasuke. It's the village's treasure. Also known as the Houshu Yokei (1). It's brought out every year for the winner of the contest. And whoever touches them will be blessed for the rest of their lives."
"..."
"Hey don't look at me like that, this is what Madame Natalya told me. That's why she has us doing the contest. There has been rumors that some people are planning to steal the gem this year and we were sent to make sure that does not happen."
"W-well.. t-this is really going one h-heck of a m-mission..."
"You said it Hinata. But since this is a mission.. I'll try to get over my fear of sing on stage for you guys."
"N-Naruto..."
Sasuke then leaves the room very ninja like and heads to the roof.
It's actually a beautiful sight to behold. If you have ever seen The Hanging Gardens (one of the Seven wonders of the world), this is pretty much that.
Sasuke walks through it all without even stopping to admire them. His mind was too occupied with what was going on. And wondering why in the world was he acting so ooc all of a sudden.
Coming to a corner of the roof, Sasuke finally looks up from the ground that he has been staring at the whole time and forgets everything he was thinking about at that moment.
Reason being that right in front of him was a sakura tree slowly moving with the wind while a bright moon partly hidden by clouds acted as the background(2).
Sasuke started to remember a song that was somehow hidden in the back of his memory. Unknowingly, he began to softly sing the song...(3)
kanashii hodo hikaridashita shiroi yami kirisaku tsubasa ni nare
Memories started to pile back into his head... Memories that he knew he could never relive again.
tsumetai taiyou ni terasarete'ta
kainarasareta jiyuu ga atta
kagami ni utsutta kiseki no yoru
MASUKU o hazushihajimeta My Soul
A tear slowly rolled down his face.
kuzurete yuku kabe no mukou wa
zetsubou mo kibou mo onaji kao suru
mitasarenai kokoro aru nara
tobitateru shuumatsu no PUROROOGU e
yaiba no you na kaze fuku sekai
mamorubeki mono wa nan na no ka?
hitotsu hitotsu itami o shiru tabi
hontou no jibun e to chikadzuku
kieyuku Fake Light
umareyuku True Light
kono te ni...
The pain of singing quietly was too much so he increased the volume. The farther he went with song the more he got into it. Pouring out the feelings that he always kept inside.
shiroku somaru yami tsukinukete
atarashii jidai o kizamitsudzukero
tokihanashita kokoro no mama ni
hateshinaku tsudzuite'ku byakuya o tobe
[oo's and ah's
Sasuke felt another small tear run down his cheek.
"Sasuke that was beautiful..."
"Huh!?...Oh Sakura, h-how long were you s-standing there?"
"No idea... Where did you learn that song?"
"...My mom would always sing it to me whenever I could not sleep at night. She wrote the song herself so... I ..."
"Oh Sasuke I'm sorry I should not of asked such a question, I -"
"No, its okay... I don't mind..."
"oh..."
"..."
"Sakura..."
"Yes?"
"I...um ... s-sorry... for what happened ... today."
"No. I should be the one to say sorry...I should not of acted like that. I-I don't know what came over me.It's just that everything is getting to be out of wack a-and..."
Just then Sakura felt a pair of arms rap around her in a hug.
"Everything here is getting crazy. It's not like something wasn't going to happen sooner or later."
"Sasuke..."
The two just stood there in silence, not making a sound.
Until Sakura broke the silence.
"So... Um ... What were you going to tell me before when you walked out of the dance hall?"
"Huh?... Oh, that, well... I -"
"If it's about that dance then I'll do something completly different."
"A-actually... I l-liked it..."
"Huh?"
"It's just that I didn't like who you were dancing with..."
smirk"Is the emotionless (up until now) Sasuke getting jealous?"
"W-we should get going. I'm going to go get Naruto and go to bed.
Who knows what will happen with those two, they have been alone long enough as it is."
At that Sasuke quickly maneuvers past Sakura and heads to the stairs.
'Man, Just when he decides to open up...'
'at least we got him to.'
'What do you mean WE. I didn't you have any part of that conversation.'
'well... I am you... so... doesn't that count for something?'
'what ever'
To Be CoNtInUeD
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOo
Yes Yes I know that it's not very good but it's the only thing I could think of as a chapter about those two. It will get better i promise.
(1) It means Gem of blessings...I think ... I just looked up the words so idk.
(2) while writing this the moon outside tonight looks like this and I just had to write about it.
(3) DNangel True Light (White Night) ... I think that the lyrics go with the scenery that I had in the story.
R & R (and if you have to flame me... be gentle okay...)
this IS my first story and all.
THANK YOU ALL FOR SO PATIENTLY WAITING!!!!
I will be sure to have the next one up soon
(homework is getting less stressful so...)
