Waah! All of you have been so nice in your reviews thank you! o I'm trying to think of some more ideas for this story so if anyone has any, please email me! I also want to thank my best friend, Blubbernuggets, who has inspired me to start writing fics, and is continuing to support me, so thank you! This next chapter is dedicated to Blubby again, but also my inu, Indy who passed away a little while ago. Indy was very special to me and actually saved my life a few times when I was little.
- There is a sentence I messed up in, from the first chapter, so sorry if you had trouble understanding. "Another corny quote by Hitomi." I was thinking about something else while I was writing this! just change the Hitomi to Sakura. Gomen!

Chapter 2
We ran across the luscious deep green grass, which blanketed the ground around the stream. The butterflies in my stomach fluttered as we neared the place where I'd spent the night with "Sasuke".
I stared into the dark forest on the other side of the stream.
"Ah. So is this where you sensed the other ninja?" Kakashi asked as he turned the page of Ichaicha Paradise.
"Nn." I replied. (inner Sakura) That baka Naruto better not have had told Kakashi about how he found me.
Kakashi reached for a kunai and whirled around, facing the forest. He leaped across the stream, and scanned the forest with his eyes. "All of you be on guard. An enemy is close." His head turned sharply and he released the kunai into the depths of the trees.
My mind slowly wandered from being alert on the battle field to…who else but Sasuke. He's really tense right now. I hope he'll be ok, he has seemed really out of things recently… ever since his brother appeared. A flash of silver and what noise that sounded like swords clashing, sliced the silence and tranquility of my thoughts.
"Gyuuh!" All of the air in his lungs was pressed out. Tears, stuck in my eyes, and would not fall. It was exactly what I had feared most. Itachi, Sasuke's brother, had jabbed Kakashi in the stomach, knocking him unconscious. He was here, and he took out Kakashi, our team leader, in one hit. I couldn't breathe.
Sasuke's eyes quickly switched to the Sharingan, as he performed hand seals. "Katon Goukakyuu no Jutsu!!" He let out a blast of fire, aimed at Itachi.
"Heh heh, your going to need more skill than to defeat me." Itachi easily dodged it, almost gliding.
Naruto dove in using his Kage Bunshin no Jutsu as usual. Baka! He needs to use a different attack. Then again, I'm not doing much to help either. Sasuke-kun, I want to help you but…
"Hyaaaah!!" Itachi let out a wave of energy which completely wiped out Naruto. Kuso, now it's only me and Sasuke left…a tear snuck out of my eye and slid down my face. I shut my eyes hoping, wishing, needing every thing to be ok.
"SAKURA!!" My eyes shot open at the sound of Sasuke's voice to see Itachi's sword slice Sasuke. He…was protecting…me… Tears gushed out and I could no longer control my body. I shook uncontrollably. I watched a small dark red pool form under the defeated Sasuke. My fallen angel.
I watched helplessly as the pool grew bigger. Memories of our past experiences flew through my mind. Slowly the past turned into the future dreams I had hoped to share with him. My heart was stolen from me, and now broken forever. I had loved him so much…and now it was…NO! He can't be…
"Sasuke-kun…" I uttered. My pain soon melted into anger and hatred. "SASUKE!!" I couldn't believe it. He couldn't be dead.
"Hm?" Itachi had not been paying attention to me at all. He turned to me with an evil grin on his face. "Ah, so you want to join my pathetic brother? Let me help you!" His sword came flying towards me…and then…darkness.
I slowly opened my eyes to a dark atmosphere. The room came in to focus as a sat up a little. "Aah!" I whimpered as a jolt of pain shot down my arm. The pain was constant and throbbing, but somehow I managed to stay up. I looked around the room. The walls were some sort of rough wood. The ceiling was very high and got narrower as it went up. The ground was of soft dirt and moss. There was a small opening in the far corner. I crawled out, wincing in pain as I moved. What had happened? Where was Sasuke? I looked up from outside to see a very large tree. The room was a hollow tree, I was in the middle of nowhere and I couldn't move easily because I had some sort of wound. I clutched my head trying to remember. I think there was some kind of stream…and… There was something else. I crawled back as my eyes were drawn to a small pile of clothing in the corner. My heart stopped. It was Sasuke. All of the memories came back.
"Sasuke…" My voice drifted of as I neared him. I put my hand on his cheek…he was cold. Tears formed in my eyes again. I rested my head on his chest wondering and blaming my self how I could let this happen to him, my precious person. My eyes widened, and I took a step backwards to get a better look. He…was… I started crying. Sasuke's chest was slowly rising and falling. He was alive.
I was brought back to reality by the thought of where I was, and how did we where we were. Also, Sasuke wasn't in good condition, and I couldn't let him die. I took the towel and blanket I had out of my backpack, and carefully wrapped Sasuke with them. I shifted him so that his head was in my lap. I looked down at the beautiful, pale, smooth face of the person I loved so much. I closed my eyes, I was tired, I didn't know why but I was. I relaxed with the silence and started fading out of that world.
"Sakura…Sakura…" It was Sasuke's voice. So silky and heart fluttering. I smiled, he was even in my dreams! "Sakura…are you ok?" His voice now had a hint of panic in it.
I opened my eyes…"Sasuke?" He was sitting next to me, with a worried expression on his face, which quickly changed. He glanced away. "Sasuke, you're… ok!?"
"Uhh, Hai. " His eyes shifted to the ground between his knees.
"What happened?" I held my head in confusion, trying to figure out how we got in this enormous tree in the first place. And now, Sasuke, who was nearly dead a few hours ago is fine. What's going on?!
"Where is he?" Sasuke said, hatred strung on his words.
I was startled. "Huh?" Who's he talking about?
"Uchiha…Itachi. My brother." His clenched fist tightened, he was in so much pain.
"Sasuke." I whispered. All those times before, I'd been to nervous to say anything serious to him. To help and embrace him. My emotions had built up and finally I'd spilled everything to him. But it wasn't him.
And here I am, faced with the same heart crushing feeling. My "precious person's" soul is being stolen and his heart blackened. Staring at my shaking hands, I couldn't hold is in anymore. Tears silently gushed out of my eyes. I turned my back to Sasuke, I didn't want him to know. So badly I had wanted to put my hands on his and take away the pain. My vision became blurred and my head ached. How could I ever take care of him…if this was all I could…
Warmth touched my frozen hands, shattering the ice of despair. I felt his breath on the back of my neck as he rested his head on my shoulder. "Gomen." My tears froze and evaporated. W-what was happening? Why was he apologizing? It must be Itachi pretending to be Sasuke again!
I was speechless. He slowly wrapped his arms around my waist holding me tight. Doing my best to ignore what was happening I tried to concentrate on identifying his Chakra. Before I knew it I'd collapsed into him, sobbing. "It is you…" I buried my head in his chest. He was so…comforting.
He held me protectively, with no intention of letting go. "Y-you're crying because of me… ne?" His voice was soft, and soothed my tears. "Gomen." he repeated.
It was so unlike him. Or maybe it was just a side of him he hadn't shown in a long time. "Sasuke, I hate seeing you in pain. I want to make it go away…please let me help you." My pleading voice staggered.
He smiled in a sadly and started opening up to me. "Itachi, my brother…" He swallowed. "I was seven. As on almost every morning I asked my brother, Itachi who was 13 to help me train. As usual he told me he was busy, and that'd he'd train with me later. After, I went into the kitchen and sat at the table. I asked my parents what I was doing wrong and why Itachi didn't like me. Otosan smiled and replied that even he didn't understand Itachi. Okasan handed me my lunch, and I left for school. On the way I met my aunt, who had asked if I was going to school. She kept talking about my brother, the genius who'd graduated at 7, become a Chuunin at 10 and an Anbu at 13. The rest of the day was pretty normal. I finished my training late, and it was already night when I arrived at our part of the village. Something wasn't right I could tell. I walked down the cold street and when I turned the corner I saw…" He paused. "There were dead bodies and blood everywhere. The houses had cut marks in them. I ran to my house not understanding. I swung open the doors to find…to see…" he stopped again, trying to keep from crying. I put my hands on his, and kissed his cheek.
End Chapter 2
Hehe, I thought this chapter was cute! Sasusaku is such a great pairing. Then again so is SasuNaru… Sasuke can pretty much be paired with anyone! What about Sasuke x Haku…hmmm that'd be weird. Ack! Sorry about that I just love Naruto pairings. Anyway I shall start on the next chapter a.s.a.p.!!
By the way, all characters belong to Kishimoto Masashi, not me…well…actually Sasuke's mine heheh, but don't tell anyone.
