Chapter 10

Revelations of a Ghost

"I'm hallucinating that's all. I mean loss of blood does that to someone right? There's no way I just saw a freaking ghost." Sasuke kept repeating that to himself as he slowly came down the stairs.

Unaware that behind him a presence was watching his every step.

Normal POV

"Sensei? Do you think we can leave soon? There's something about this house that makes me uncomfortable." Sakura asked, while they watched Naruto run around the place with his video camera.

Without closing his book he raised his head and looked at her. "You know, I feel the same way. Just last night I went to sleep and locked my door and left my volume of Icha Icha in the night drawer next to me. Now when I woke up this morning I found it wide open on the other side of the room. Very interesting." He said while striking a thinking pose.

Sakura only sweat dropped, 'Great, there's a perverted ghost roaming around.' As they kept going, her attention got caught in a room. Stopping in her tracks she traced the outline of a door and with an outburst she grabbed the handle, opened the door and quietly slipped inside.

She stared at the room in awe; canvases and linens were orderly stacked in a rack. Brushes of many kinds were separated and lined in a wooden box; last but not least there were paint flasks with colors of different shades all aligned in a bureau. The room was remotely empty, with a mirror that covered the whole back wall. Then out of nowhere a can of paint fell on her completely drenching her hair.

"AAAAHHHHHH! What the hell?" Turning to the mirror she stared in horror, as she saw her hair. "OMG!! My hair!! It's black!!!!!! This is a conspiracy!!!!" Groaning she tried taking the paint off but it was dry the second the touched it. Muttering curses under her breath she kept walking around the room looking for water.

She stopped in front of a canvas, the painting was unfinished. It was a wedding, a few guests were there, and the setting was in a garden. Everyone was there, except the bride and the groom who were supposedly to be standing in the altar in front of a huge sakura tree.

As soon as she saw the painting she felt a lump in her throat and her eyes stung; a few minutes later a sob escaped her lips. She couldn't understand what was going on, but got scared when a feeling of uttermost pain and sadness filled her body. It was as if her heart had been shattered and thrown to the wind; the feeling was insufferable. Walking towards the door, she tried to grab the handle but couldn't for when she attempted to, her hand stopped midway.

It was as if a hand was grabbing her by the wrist and wouldn't let her out of the room. "Please let me out! I can't take it anymore, make it stop! Please!" Sakura cried and when the pressure was off her wrist she bursted open the door and stumbled out locking the door after her.

Covering her face with her hands she slid down the door and landed on the floor as she bawled and cried in desperation.

"Sakura?"

Sasuke's POV

As soon as I was downstairs I started searching for the dobe and the others. But after a few minutes of walking in the huge mansion guess what?

I got lost.

"Shit. Now I am in the middle of a creepy hallway, in a creepy house, in a creepy forest. Is there something that could make it worse?" As soon as I said those words, I heard someone's footsteps behind me.

"Ok Naruto, I know it's you so just spare me," I turned to give the dobe a scowl only to find an empty hallway. "What the?" I heard the same footsteps around me.

"Dobe you'd better come out here or else."

Just as I finished saying that, the footsteps stopped and I sighed. Relieved I turned to continue my walk, but stopped when I saw the only thing that actually made me gasp.

Naruto was right in front of me, or at least I thought he was. He was wearing a pair of black pants and a beige shirt with a pair of brown boots and the leaf symbol on a gold chain hanged from his neck. He was smiling widely and his eyes were narrowed giving him a look of mischief.

"Hello to you too; but would you care to tell me what is the 'or else' you are referring to, if you wish?" he said.

I looked at him weirdly as I took in his outfit. "Dobe what the hell are you wearing and why are you even talking like that?"

Naruto only cocked his head, a minute later he walked towards me rather quickly. But what really surprised me was the fact that he turned into a sphere of light as it floated around him. Turning quickly to see him I flinched when I saw Naruto standing a few inches away from me. Only that the dobe looked completely different. His eyes were closed and his smile was gone and he wore a look of complete seriousness, before I could even muster a word his eyes snapped open and I stared into a pair of purple orbs.

"You may look like him but you are not Daisuke! You are not MY best friend, you didn't betray us. You didn't hurt her." At this his eyes went downcast and for a moment grief and desperation crossed his face; then resolution overcame him and he stared into my eyes again, grabbing my shoulders he whispered, "you have to get them out of here now, before he finds her. Take her and the others and get away from here, before history repeats itself." With that said he evaporated in the blink of an eye.

I just stood there trembling in shock. Needless to say I was scared. Very scared; this was the second time a freaking ghost had appeared in front of me. And now this time he gives me a warning!

Seconds later I was running throughout the place trying to find the others. I was still running looking in every room that I came across, until I heard a sobbing on the other hall. Quickly I went to the hall and I released a breath that I unconsciously was holding, when I saw Sakura in front of me. But what made me stop was when I noticed that her hair was black and she was crying wholeheartedly.

Slowly I approached her; I just had to make sure it was the real Sakura.

"Sakura?"

Normal POV

Sakura raised her head and turned to see who had called her name. Surprised she stared at Sasuke as he kneeled to her eye level and had a concerned expression.

"Are you ok?"

Wiping the tears from her face she nodded, "yes. I see you noticed my hair, I swear I don't know what happened actually; I went into this room and a can of paint fell on me, then I felt incredibly sad, it was so terrible that I couldn't stay in. Then when I was about to grab the handle I felt a hand grabbing my wrist and I was unable to get out."

Upon hearing this Sasuke took her arm and pulled her up, without another word he asked, "Where are Naruto and Kakashi?" Sakura pointed in the direction they went off to. As soon as she did Sasuke broke into a run, dragging an alarmed Sakura behind him.

"Sasuke-kun! What are you doing? What is going on?"

"We need to find Naruto and Kakashi and get the hell out of here, that's what's going on!" Sasuke yelled.

This only confused Sakura even more. Then they heard the voices of their teammates and darted into their direction, only to see an overexcited Naruto and a bored Kakashi. They both jumped when Sasuke and Sakura stumbled into them.

"Oi teme! What is your problem?"

Sasuke stood and started yelling, "we have to get the shit out of here now! We are in danger!"

Everyone stared at him like he was crazy, but the loud-mouthed ninja was the one who actually yelled it out. "What in the holy name of crap are you talking about teme? What do you mean we're in dan-" He suddenly stopped talking as he stared into himself. Or actually his ghost self, he blinked many times; while Kakashi dropped his book and Sakura stood I shock.

"Why are you still doing here? I told you to get out now! Its dangerous for you to-" the Naruto look-alike also stopped abruptly when he saw Sakura and then the atmosphere turned cold. "He's found her" he whispered.

Sakura was about to ask what was going on, when then out of nowhere she felt something grab her from the waist.

"What the-? AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed when she was pulled backwards in the blink of an eye.

"SAKURA!!!!" Sasuke, Naruto and Kakashi broke into a run after her. She was being dragged around the whole house, but they kept the same rhythm than her to keep up. They could see her struggling to free herself; she even took out a kunai and tried to cut the imaginary ropes that were wrapped around her waist.

Sasuke ran faster and got to catch up with her, "Sasuke-kun! Help me!" Sakura was scared shitless at this point. Sasuke activated his sharingan and he studied Sakura's waist; there wasn't any charka strings or anything. He attempted grabbing her arm, but got shocked when he tried; just when it seemed hopeless, the Naruto look-alike appeared behind Sasuke and made a series of hand signs. A moment later Sakura was dropped onto the floor, landing on her feet.

"Sakura-chan! Are you alright?" Naruto asked her. Sakura nodded even though she was trembling. The Naruto look-alike look in the direction in which Sakura was being dragged to, "everyone follow me quickly!" he yelled and he led them upstairs. He led them into Sakura's room and once they were all inside the door closed on its own and locked itself.

"As long as you are here, you are in no danger." Naruto look-alike said.

Panting the shinobi stared at him, "ok Naruto look-alike, what the hell is going on!" Kakashi yelled.

"First let me introduce myself. My name is Haru Uzumaki." He bowed, as the shinobi stared at him in awe. Naruto was gaping at him, Kakashi's visible eye was wide open, Sasuke was shocked and Sakura paled.

"Y-Y-You are my ancestor? But that makes no sense, why are you even here?" Naruto stuttered.

"Because I came to visit my fiancée" Haru said solemnly.

The reactions he got once again were priceless. Naruto's jaw was on the floor and his eyes were bulging out of his sockets. "Holy shit! You were the guy who was engaged to Sakura! I am the descendant of a killer!!!"

Haru frowned, "I beg your pardon, but I am no such thing!"

"You killed both Daisuke and Sakura one hundred years ago, because she didn't love you or married you. You are the reason they died, and the reason why they are still haunting this place." Kakashi told him.

Haru seemed completely shocked as rage took over him. "I never murdered them! I loved Sakura like a sister! I wasn't the one who destroyed the wedding; I never ended my life and the life of Sakura-chan."

"Then who was it?" Naruto asked again.

Haru looked straight at Sasuke as a look of complete sadness took place on his face.

"Daisuke Uchiha…My best friend."
