Disclaimer: Kishimoto is the genius behind Naruto, we just praise his work.

Warning: Shounen-ai.

Author's Babble: Konnichiwa mina! It isn't Friday, but my associate and I have been so distracted from our previous goal of a Friday deadline that we decided something must be posted immediately! Many apologies and appreciation to all those, who have bothered to looked at Shinobi Chronicles and either give us their comments or who simply found something that caught their eye.

The only excuse we have for our absence is Scorn's busy day-to-day and my picturesque "hard knock University life." This chapter is, hopefully, a sign that we're getting back on our literary track. I have Creative Writing this semester so my desire to write should be renewed within the upcoming weeks.

Scorn: Anyway, here's installment number eleven. Enjoy it for what it is.

Sin: Hopefully we'll have a long oneshot for you soon.

Breaking Down the Walls
Sasuke & Naruto

I see in you a little boy
Scared to let things go
Afraid to truly let one in
For then your scars will show

You keep within a sacred wall
You thought was built to last
But then someone had come along
'Twas like a sudden blast

Your walls had crumbled on that day
Though you will try to deny
That love has happened, but you see
That that is just a lie

Now you're naked and exposed
Something new to you
And you will have to learn to lean
On someone who loves you

I say this knowing in my heart
A truth that's come to me
My heart is open, walls are down
My flaws you'll plainly see

As they fell and the truths revealed
We look into our souls
To learn, we have to share our thoughts
And realign our goals

This is, to me, new as well
We both have to learn
To embrace what we both possess
A love we both have earned

You see in me a special boy
I hope to prove this true
'Cause behind all your fallen walls
I see the same in you

Owari

Additional Author Babble: Scorn here with an update on our current writing status. Since we have neglected to abide by our Friday deadline like we promised here's a preview to what we are currently working on and a list of the challenges that were are in the thinking stages of putting down on paper.

Current Challenges:
fujisti stytghi- OroNaru
Renn- NejiShino, NejiKiba
Cyberwolf- NaruIno/ShikaKiba double date
amwong88- LeeIno, GaaIno
Lala to the power of 2- KankSaku
scorpion05- TenGaa, TenKiba
deathrosekitty- KabuNaru
souku- NejiShika

All we need is some inspiration –a delicacy to our evil plot bunnies- and they'll be done in no time flat. As for what we already have on the go, let me shed some light on the works currently collecting dust on Sin's computer.

Works in Progress:
"No More" - Under no circumstances, even if he had to forfeit his life, would he let Itachi leave this place. All of his hopes, ambition and sacrifices were finally going to pay off. He was finally going to kill his brother… Or so he thought…

"Untitled" - Temari couldn't deny what she felt. Women, following man's opinion, made for the better lovers with the kunoichi of Konoha, Temari thought, being the best of the best.

"Sinful Desire" & "Bubble Tease" – if we say anything yet we'll spoil all the slashy goodness.

And last but not least, that you to everyone who as reviewed our collection thus far. We might not have gotten this far without your support and encouragement.
