Chapter 21:

Sasuke's POV:

I sat in the rain, remembering the first time Sakura tried to leave. That was a wonderful night because I confessed how I felt and she returned my feelings. This time I was unsuccessful. I wanted to call Sakura's cell phone that I gave her but I couldn't. She would just say the same thing.

Suddenly, out of no where, a puff of smoke and two men inside it appeared. They were the same people from my dream. I stood quickly but they raised their hands defensively.

"Don't worry Uchiha Sasuke, we're not going to hurt you." The one with long black hair said. "I'm Orochimaru. I have been watching you for a long time. You have great potential."

"I don't have time to be talking to you." I waved my hand.

"You're sitting in the rain all alone, of course you have time." Kabuto gestured to the bench. "Stop mourning over your lost girlfriend and listen to us."

I turned quickly. "How do you know about that?"

"We told you," Orochimaru proclaimed. "We have been watching you. We want you to join us in force."

"And why would I want to do that?" I sneered.

"Because," Orochimaru smirked. "You have lost the thing that you care most about in the world. You can restart with us." I stayed silent waiting for them to continue. "You can do whatever you like and best of all, you could kill people."

I looked up. Right now all I wanted to do was make someone hurt more than I am.

"It would be paradise." Kabuto said. "And you could have many more girls, more beautiful and talented than Sakura. It would be a great way to get over her."

"I don't know." I said uncertainly.

"You don't have to answer us immediately. We will give you 24 hours to think about it." Orochimaru said.

"I don't need 24 hours. I agree. I just need to pack. Meet me here in 3 hours." I took my decision right then and there.



"Alright then." He threw something on the floor. "Until then" There was smoke and they were gone.

I thought about it. What was left of my life? The love of my life was gone. I couldn't get her back. So I went home and I started to pack.
