Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto and I didn't create it, but I did create this story.
Yay! Another chapter! I hope I'm not going to fast. I decided to do add so Sasuke feelings at the beginning. I hope you liked the last chapter. It had some heavy emotion in it. I think this one will have a lot of emotion but not as heavy. Thank you so much for reading and especially those who reviewed. I noticed that some people added me to the fav. stories list. Thank you and it really means a lot to me. Ok now here's the chapter.
Chapter 6: The Fighting Begins
Sasuke was up in a tree watching over Sakura. She stood by her parent's grave with a look a determination. She was an avenger like him now, but he would do anything to change that. Sakura was bright and cheerful, but now she might become hard and cold. He had. He became set on his revenge, and wouldn't concentrate on anything else. He just wanted to become stronger and stronger, until he could defeat Itachi. He just prayed that that wouldn't happen to Sakura. Sakura was his light in all the darkness that consumed him. He was still cold and bitter, but she helped him relax again. Now, he has friends that are dear to him, but he didn't exactly want that. He didn't want those dear to him to be in danger... he couldn't watch as he lost them again. Having Sakura cheered him up, even though he wouldn't admit it. But, if she were to become like him, her light would go out. She would be consumed by darkness, just as he would.
' Why do I care so much for her?' Sasuke thought as he sat in the tree. She had always loved him, he pushed her away, but she never gave up. Half of him was annoyed, but another half was somewhat flattered. He would never let that show. ' Do I love her?' Sasuke thought. Was it possible for him to love someone before he completed his revenge? Sasuke didn't know. But, he truly cared for her. Now she was alone, but she still had her team. They were the only ones there for her now. Sasuke remember life before he got his team. Everyday he came straight home, and her heart was filled with loneliness. After being with his team everyday, he had grown to like and appreciate them. He never realized how much her appreciated Sakura there. He thought about life without her, and realized he wouldn't be able to live without her. He swore that he wouldn't let her get consumed by her revenge. He also swore to protect her.
Sakura started to walk away from the grave. A cold wind brushed against her as she rubbed her arms. She headed home and Sasuke followed. He couldn't leave her alone, fearing she would get attacked. Sakura looked at the blood stains across her living room, it made her angry. She grabbed her shuriken holster and attached it to her pajama bottoms. She had been sleeping with it since the incident... just in case. She fell asleep, knowing that she was in for another night of nightmares. She had been having nightmares that were so frightening that she shivered in her sleep. She always woke up breathing hard. A glass of water would help her get back to sleep.
Morning finally came, and Sakura had informed Kakashi-sensei she would train today. She got out of bed, dressed into her red dress, combed her hair, and placed her forehead protecter on. Sasuke figured she would be leaving soon, so he decided to head to the bridge. He hopped down from the tree in Sakura's yard, and raced to the bridge. Sakura arrived on the bridge shortly afterwards. Naruto and Sasuke looked up. Naruto had a large grin on his face, but she could tell he was still concerned. Sasuke was the same as always, but he seemed to look at her more now.
" Good Morning Sakura-chan! " Naruto said cheerfully.
" Morning Naruto." Sakura said smiling, she didn't want to worry them. " Morning Sasuke-kun."
"Morning." Sasuke said, looking at her in the corner of his eye.
About forty-five minutes later, the trio had sunken down on the ground. They all leaned against the bridge. Naruto was zoned out, and Sasuke and Sakura had the classic anime sweatdrop on the side of their faces. All of their eyes were white. Finally, Kakashi-sensei graced them with his presence (hehehe I had to put that in there).
" Ahh Good Morning friends," Kakashi-sensei started. " My alarm clock went off two minutes early, I thought it might be an evil plot, so I stayed in bed a little longer."
His students just glared at him. They weren't in the mood to question him now. Kakashi wanted to take things lightly today for Sakura, but she seemed to be acting normal. He took them off into the forest. He made them each do some stretching excercises before they started their excercise.
"Alright, not that our blood is pumping, time for the real excercise." Kakashi said. " Our teamwork has been a little off lately, so I think you should all practice some techniques together.
The students nodded, they all thought this was a good idea. Kakashi smiled and pulled out Come Come Paradise. His students fainted.
" Well I want to be surprised," He said. " But in the meantime, I have to go to a meeting with the ANBU. They're still hunting the criminals."
Sakura winced and everyone looked at her. In a POOF, Kakashi is gone.
" Alright," she said. " Let's go.
They went deep into the forest, and came to a some clear area. Before they had time to practice, something in the bushes rustled. They all took out of kunai. They went back to back in a circle. They heard another noise, a twig snapped. Sasuke's sharingan appeared in his eyes.
" Do you see anything Sasuke-kun?" Sakura whispered.
"Not yet."
All of the sudden several shuriken came flying out. The trio dashed away. Several more came, but they dodged it.
" Show your face coward! " Sasuke said.
" I'm gonna kick your ass!" Naruto said. He did his replication technique.
"Oh you're going to kick my ass?" A voice said. " Not likely."
Naruto was about to yell, but stopped as a ninja appeared. Another one appeared, another, another, another, there must have been twenty ninjas! Naruto gasped, Sasuke was nervous, but Sakura dropped her kunai. She gasped loudly. Naruto and Sasuke looked at her.
" I see you remember us." A ninja laughed. " You knew we'd be coming back.
"Sakura?" Sasuke said. Then, it dawned on him. These were the criminals who attacked her family. He looked at the forehead protecter... they were from the Sound! Sakura picked up her kunai and glared at them.
"What do you want?" She asked them calmly.
" We just came here to finish our job... we have to kill you." The ninja said laughing.
"Not likely." Sasuke stated.
"You'll have to go through me!" Naruto said, trying to look cool.
"And who might you freaks be?" The ninja asked.
"We're her teammates, and if you want her you'll have to fight us as well." Sasuke said, " But, a ninja is supposed to identify himself before he asks the name of another ninja."
" Ahh I see then..." The ninja smiled," Forgive me, my name is Hojo and we are an elite ninja team from the Sound Village." Sakura recognized him immediantly, he was that ninja who stopped the attack. He said they had orders to leave immediantly. Next to him was the ninja with the cruel face who almost killed her.
" This is my fellow shinobi friend Omezo," Hojo said. " He is very eager to kill the Haruno girl, so why don't you just hand her over." He smiled.
" Never." Sasuke and Naruto said. Sakura felt great gratitude towards them. They were sticking up for her, they really cared about her. Sasuke-kun seems to be caring as much as Naruto. But, she became worried, worried they could be killed. She would be responsible. She couldn't bare to lost them, she wouldn't have anyone left. She could fight them, she didn't want them hurt.
"You don't have to..." Sakura started," I'll fight them. I don't want you getting hurt..."
"Sakura," Sasuke interupted. " You are our teammate and friend, and we're not about to let you do this on your own. We're a team and we stick together." Sakura could feel tears in her eyes. This was really Sasuke-kun! Naruto even seemed surprise at Sasuke's words, Sasuke hadn't always been a team player. Naruto nodded in agreement.
"Plus..." Sasuke added," Kakashi sent us out here to train and strengthen our teamwork. Let's kick some ass." He smirked. Naruto and Sakura agreed.
"Thank you." Sakura said.
"Aww how sweet." Omezo said." But, you won't be smiling for long."
"Bring it."
OK the action is starting yay! This will be a cool fight. Then, we will have some more emotion things after it. I'm writing in the car right now, it isn't easy lol. Thanks for reading and I'll update soon. ^_^
