Chapter 8: on the run

I picked my speed up running as fast as I could go. I could feel Kisame's Deidara's and another chakra coming up behind me. I pushed myself harder, I knew there was very little chance of me getting away from them as for some reason my chakra was near non existent. And I was betting that had something to do with that sword of Kisame's. Jumping down from the trees I took off through the woods making my way towards sand, which just so happened to be closer than Konoha. Itachi was right about one thing, I was going to Konoha for one reason, they needed to know about Madara and fast, he didn't tell me what he planned to use the tailed beasts for but it didn't take a genius to figure it out. He was going to try and take control of all the Shinobi villages. I cringed when I felt the three chakra's coming in closer and mentally cursed, I needed help and fast. Though I very much doubted there was anyone around who could or would help. So in other words I was stuffed, I bolted out of the tree lines and headed down a dirt path knowing if I kept moving this way I would eventually get to Sand. Suddenly I could feel another chakra but not from behind me it was coming from in front of me and it was moving fast. There was no way Akatsuki could have gotten someone a head of me, unless it was itachi, but it didn't feel like his chakra, unknowingly I had slowed down and soon that mistake caught up with me in the form of three Akatsuki members. I spun facing them, Kisame and Deidara did not look amused at having to chase me again, I looked to the other member and shuddered, it was Sasori of the red sand, in other words trouble. I stepped backwards and tried to think of a way out of this but for some reason my brain wasn't cooperating. Suddenly I felt the chakra that was now behind me spike and I had a feeling of déjà vu. I knew that chakra and I also knew help was coming; I smirked at the three Akatsuki and said

"As much fun as it is playing with you guys I gotta go, bye" and then I jumped into the trees, I landed on the highest branch and looked to my left.

"Still a trouble causer Oneechan"

"Did you think I would ever change, Sasuke?"

"No, let s get moving" and with that we both took off, this time towards Konoha.

I looked back quickly to find the three Akatsuki stood in the same place they where when I took to the trees, Sasuke had placed them in a genjutsu. After a few more hours of running we stopped for a break, jumping down from the trees I landed in a clearing Sasuke right behind me. I sat down next to a tree and looked off towards Konoha, I needed to get there and soon, Akatsuki wouldn't give up. I felt Sasuke sit beside me, I looked at him and asked

"How did you know where I was?"

"I knew you had been in rain for sometime, then I heard Akatsuki had you, I knew you would get out but I decided you might need some help getting to Konoha. I guess I was right, you're a good fighter Akane but even you can't take on three Akatsuki"

"You're faith in my abilities is fantastic Sasuke. I could have taken them on, I just chose not to" I argued

"Sure" he replied

We lapsed into silence, there was so much I wanted to say to him but I couldn't get the words out. I missed him so much my heart was still hurting, instinctively my hand went to the pocket over my heart where his letter was still kept. I felt him watch my movements and eventually he asked

"What's wrong?"

I smirked and said

"Nothing Sasuke, just thinking to hard I guess"

"Hn" we lapsed in to silence again for a few minutes before Sasuke broke it "Gomen"

"What?" I asked shocked

"Gomen, I never meant to hurt you Oneechan" he said softly

"Ah, I know, and I have already forgiven you Sasuke, but I would forgive you more if you came home. Leave Orochimaru and come home" I near begged

"I can not, I need to get stronger. Itachi must pay for him crimes"

"Sasuke" I felt my heart breaking again.

Suddenly I felt his arm wrap round my shoulder bringing me closer to him, I hugged him back and cried softly. I knew now I had definitely lost them both. One to revenge and one to self sacrifice. After about 30 minutes sasuke spoke

"We need to get you to Konoha; we can make it by morning if we leave now"

"Hai lets go Ototo" I replied, we stood up and both jumped to the trees, the whole way there I felt my heart shattering more. I knew I wouldn't survive losing them both. I was now more determined than ever to save them both.
