Naruto Shippuuden – A Different Story Ch7
The figure laid Akira on a bed in a room which had orange walls in which were carved swirls.
It then proceeded to take a closer look at him.
The face hadn't changed, just his whisker-like scars were a bit bigger.
His hair was different too, it was black like his own and they nearly had the same hairstyle too, just that the boys weren't so spiky at the back of his head. It was flat.
He leaned in closer and was now only inches away from the boys face and couldn't help but stare at the beautiful sight before him, even though he would never admit that.
The black-eyed figure brushed shortly over the others lips before he pulled away fast. What was he doing? It's not like he was gay or anything, but the boy before him reminded him too much of the blonde he had left behind in Konoha.
The blonde who had been his first real friend and rival.
He shrugged away those thoughts and sat down on a chair next to the bed. Soon he would know if he was correct with his assumptions.
Akira woke up and felt chilly, when he looked around he saw he was in a room with stone walls, only lit by a single candle.
He saw figure sitting next to him and Akira was immediately on alert as a kunai came out of his sleeve and he jumped up in a defensive stance.
The figure had a smirk on his face as it said: "Don't worry, I won't harm you… yet."
Akira eyed him suspiciously, but he felt that the person wasn't lying and so Akira let the kunai vanish.
"What do you want then? Do you belong to those other Ninja who are searching for someone?" Akira asked.
"Hah, you speaking about those pathetic Ninjas from Konohagakure? They have been searching around this area quite some time, but they wouldn't even be able to find a horse if it were right in front of them. I just want to know who you are, for you remember me of someone I knew"
"Isn't it polite to give your name first, before asking for anothers?"
"Hn. Well I'm Uchiha Sasuke."
"Akira Kitsune. An Uchiha huh? I read somewhere that there were only two left. So you're one of them."
"Hn." was all Sasuke answered.
"So can I go now?" Akira asked.
"Hn. If you want to."
Akira's eyebrow twitched at the "Hn". It was starting to get to him.
Suddenly a wave of pain overcame him again and he saw pictures of the boy before him, only that Sasuke was younger in those.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I hate a lot of things, and I don't particularly like anything. What I have is not a dream, because I will make it a reality. I'm going to restore my clan, and destroy a certain someone."
"Are you okay, scaredy cat?"
"I want to fight you too Naruto"
"Just shut up for once! What the hell do you know about it?! It's not like you ever had a family in the first place! You were on your own right from the beginning, what makes you think you know anything about it?! Huh?! I'm suffering now because I had those ties, how on earth could you possibly understand, what it feels like to lose all that?!"
Akira breathed heavily after those pictures. 'What was that? Is that my past? This Uchiha seems to be a connection to my past. I don't want to remember those times again, better get going.'
"Are you okay, dobe?" the raven-haired boy asked Akira.
"Y-yeah just remembered something and don't call me dobe, teme."
'Huh why did I say teme to him? Just because he called me dobe? Argh I really have to go.'
"I'll be going now thanks for picking me up I guess."
With that Akira vanished.
'Heh, just as I though the dobe lost his memories, but habits are hard to break. Guess I will keep an eye on him through a spy.' were Sasuke's thoughts before he too vanished.
Akira ran again with all his might, but stopped when he felt he couldn't go on. He somehow had made his way to the wind country, though he didn't know how he came that far.
As he made a camp out in the dessert he heard someone in the bushes. Quickly getting a kunai and throwing it in the direction of the noise. A blonde-haired kunoichi with a black battle kimono came out and looked at him with surprise.
"N-naruto is that you?"
