A dark figure glided silently through the alleys, glaring bloody murder at all those that stood in his way. One glance at his face would be enough to make most women drool in wide eyed lust. His strongly chiseled face was more beautiful then handsome, his messy hair was as dark as night, and his onyx eyes were as dark as coals. People often said that eyes were the windows to the soul, however his eyes were bottomless pits of anger and hate.

It was impossible to say, that he even had a heart. As a child, he'd lost everything...his friends...his family...all just because of an accident. An accident that still plagued his mind to this very day. And so it began, his coldness, his bitterness to the world. It grew each day, bit by bit until he was nothing more then an empty shell, void of any emotions whatsoever.

hehe...I'm gonna make Itachi die in de so called "accident" with de rest of de family so Sasuke doesn't have ta worry bout his so called REVENGE!

The man looked up at the night sky and frowned. The moon shone luminously down upon the building so that the shadows looked longer then usual, the stars twinkled innocently above him...almost like as if they were telling his a secret.

He growled and quickly hastened his pace. It was all but an illusion, if only life was so kind and gentle. He snickered softly. Over the years he'd come to accept the fact that the word "happiness" was nothing but a fanciful term used in fairy tales. The world was nothing like that, it was cruel and unjust. You had to be strong to survive, and the weak die off. That was life for you, nothing is fair.

The air was heavy with tension, while he strode through the crowd. Everyone all but ran away in fear. They all heard rumors of his infamous temper and reputation, and they sure as hell weren't going to risk provoking it.

Sasuke rolled his eyes in disgust. "Weaklings," he spat, not bothering to turn around an acknowledge them. In his eyes they were nothing more then a bunch of worthless, cowering fools. If they weren't even able to face him, how in the world could they even overcome their own problems? It was pathetic.

For some reason, his friend Shikamaru had asked him to come over today, and that it was important. Sasuke knew that his friend wasn't known for exaggerating, but for some reason something had felt off when he spoke with Shikamaru. It seemed almost like as if he wanted to burst out laughing...

He shook his head disdainfully, Shikamaru was one weird guy. He probably had something up his sleeve, something that would make his life a living hell. Sasuke chuckled softly, his eyebrows tilted in amusement. He was fairly sure that he'd hit rock bottom, that his life wasn't going to get worse anytime soon...could it?

Sasuke trudged forward silently like a predator, pace by pace his eyes were wary and tired by the time he reached Shikamaru's new house. He looked up and studied the house with awe, in ways beyond him it was one of the sweetest houses he'd ever seen. It had an aurora that just screamed out comfort and relaxation. It still amazed it how Shikamaru and his wife-to-be had turned this run-down sack into their own personal palace.

He hesitated before raising his hand to knock on the door. The fiancée...umm...what's her name...Ino, scares the shit out of him. He'd be damned to stay in the same freaking room as her! She was so damn hyper all the time! It was almost like talking with a child...

Sasuke shuddered and got a grip on himself, and rapped the door with an almost polite air. When no one came to the door, he glared and knocked harder...and harder...until the door flew open. To furious to notice, he continued to knock, that is until he noticed that he was slamming his knuckles against Ino's head. Sasuke gulped and backed away slowly, trying to protect himself from the storm called Ino.

"WHAT IN THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!" she screamed out, her eyes dark with anger. "NOW THANKS TO YOU! I MIGHT HAVE A BRUISE!" she cried, continuing to give poor Sasuke a good tongue lashing. "AND TO TOP ALL THAT OFF, THE FREAKING BRIDE CAN'T BE DISFIGURED!"

"Who's disfigured?" asked a voice curiously from behind Ino.

Ino turned around and hugged him. She pointed an accusing finger at Sasuke and said, "Your baka friend hit me on the head!"

Both guys had identical sweat drops on their foreheads. What was it with women being such drama queens?

Shikamaru was the first to recover. "Darling, you're alright aren't you?" he said trying to sound concerned and keep the laughter out of his voice. "I'm sure it was an accident," he said slowly turning towards Sasuke. "He wouldn't have done it on purpose..."

Ino sniffled dramatically. It was funny seeing both of the guys getting worked up over her, her eyes twinkled slyly. "So what?!" she wined, "He still bonked me on the head..." she said crossing her arms defiantly. "I want him to do me a favor..."

Shikamaru stared deeply into Ino's eyes and smirked. Now he finally understood what Ino was planning. "Alright," he replied a bit too quickly.

Sasuke shifted nervously from side to side, he didn't like that look on their face. They were planning something that he was positive that he was going to hate. "What..." he choked, and took a deep breath before starting over again. "What do you want me to do..."

Ino smiled, which caused Sasuke to wince. "A friend of mine is coming over today," she began cheerfully. "Since me and Shikamaru are going to be a bit busy with the wedding and all, I want you to watch over her."

"You want me to BABY-SIT your friend?" he said in disbelief.

"No," snapped Ino with a frown on her face. Damn this guy was so annoying! How she wished she could just wring his neck! "You're going to give her a tour, and stay with her until me and Shika get married."

"AND YOU'RE GOING TO BE NICE TO HER!" screeched Ino making both boys cover their ears.

"But...but..."

"No buts! You're going and that's final!" snapped Ino. "She's getting off her flight tonight at 9:00, and I want you to get acquainted with her."

Sasuke looked down at the ground scowling. It was just his luck...just his freaking damn luck...
