Struck

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Naruto... nor do I own the song Broken.

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

I turned in the opposite direction from where he was standing. Tears started forming in my eyes, as I tried to hold them back. I quickly ran from him but just as I reached the door he grabbed my wrist.

"Let me go, please..."

"Now why would I do that?"

"Because,"

"Because..."

"Just let me go."

"You've changed, Chidori."

"Like how?"

"You're pushing me away."

"No I'm not."

"Chidori..."

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
' Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel light when you're gone away

I wasn't in the mood for any fighting, so I used the art of substitution and poofed to the nearby forest. He stood there as he looked at the log he was holding. Meanwhile I sat on a tree and thought for a while. Why did I run away? I was this close and I blew it. Stupid me... I might not be able to find him again.

"Hello," a familiar voice said.

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

It was him again. I turned around and there he was. How did he find me here? Eh who cares, as long as I don't blow this chance... I have to tell him...

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
' Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

"I want some answers," he said.

"What kind of answers?"

"Why did you come back?"

"You obviously didn't come back to see me."

"No, that's not it..."

"Then what is it?"

"I..."

What was I going to say? I hesitated to speak; I didn't know what to say. Suddenly I sensed another strong chakra around.

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
' Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel light when you're gone away

It seemed he didn't sense the strong chakra, because before he knew it, a shuriken came flying towards him. Quickly reacting to this I jumped in front of him, getting myself injured badly. His eyes widened as he saw me fall on my knees. The shuriken struck the side of my stomach, and I quickly pulled it out. I coughed up blood, and fell to my side.

"CHIDORI!!"

"I have something to tell you..."

"Save your breath, I..."

"No. I have to tell you, now."

"What is it?"

I coughed up more blood and my vision slowly blurred.

"Kakashi... I..."

I blacked out.
