Jarring breaths escaped from his lips as sweat glistened all over his body. His right arm reached over between his left shoulder and neck, hand squeezing the mark that was currently causing him immense pain.

He collapsed from the comforts of his bed to the wooden floor of his bedroom. He writhed in pain as the mark increased the unpleasant physical sensation.

He felt uncontrollable power surge through his body, and felt the mark slowly crawling over his body. The pain spread. It was excruciating, almost unbearable.

His writhing continued until finally, he could take no more of it. Uchiha Sasuke screamed, dreadful and agonized.

He was busy in a vigorous training when it happened. It just attacked instantly, the pain. The seal on his stomach felt like it was burning.

He doubled over when the throbbing became intense. It was difficult to breath. There was immense power surging throughout his body. It was a strange feeling. As he felt more power, the pain became more tormenting.

He thrashed about on the dirt ground. The pain made him feel like his whole body was burning. He clutched his stomach, a futile attempt to lessen the pain.

His eyes shut tight, expression in anguish, Naruto let out a sharp scream.

Sakura was engaged in tending Shino and Lee's wounds. They had recently returned from a mission to which they were partners. They were an abnormal pair. Sakura thought so.

She was just about finished when a nurse suddenly barged in her door, panting with an alarmed look on her pretty face.

The information the panicked nurse announced shocked all three occupants in the room, and had Sakura head out the room immediately, almost knocking the nurse down.

Tsunade was glaring intently at the papers which contained the medical records of Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto. She turned stern eyes to the medic standing in front of her desk.

The pink-haired female gazed back, a neutral expression on her face.

The Godaime sighed. "So their seals started acting up again. Have you acquired any other information why?"

"No, Tsunade-sama." Sakura replied.

There was a long silence and Tsunade dismissed her. With a bow, Sakura went out the door, closing it silently behind her.

The neutral expression remained on her face as she walked out of the Hokage Tower. Inside, her mind asked questions. What happened? What was the cause?

She headed back to the hospital knowing she couldn't answer those questions.

A young man with blond hair was lying in bed. The moonlight shone through the window, making his hair glow slightly golden in color. He had a peaceful expression on his face, he was sleeping. But that was a second ago.

His eyelids snapped open, revealing sapphire blue orbs. He got off the bed and silently walked out of the room. He went down the hall and up a few flights of stairs.

At the end there was a door, he opened it and stepped into the moonlit area. There was a person standing back turned to him. The person turned around, their eyes, obsidian and sapphire, met.

Memories of this place invaded their minds. It was a sunny day, there were blankets left hanging to dry, and two boys who looked like them were standing, much like they were now.

"Naruto…" Said the dark haired one. "dobe" he added with a smirk.

The blonde smirked back. "Sasuke teme."

Silence. They charged at each other, under the moonlight.

Sakura awoke with a start. She immediately shot up from her bed. Something was wrong. She immediately took off to the hospital.

What can you say about this chapter? I couldn't think of anything to write. I just wanted to update this fic and this is the only idea that came out. Might revise this chapter later, but I doubt it.
