Hey guys! This is kinda my first fanfic so please go easy on me. I left a footnote below..please read it. And I'll stop babbling now so you could get started or maybe not...I got a really long disclaimer that is because I also put some author notes there...hehehhe..Either way, please read it. (in the later chappies its gonna be the same disclaimer note "except for the song part" so in the later chappies if you want you can skip it..)
Disclaimer: I don't own anything in naruto. But I do wish I own some of the characters like Gaara, Hinata, Sasuke, Naruto, Neji, Temari, Kurenai, Kakashi and Ino. Ok, so pretty much everybody else on the show... but you can't blame me...I think they are all so cool. Especially my gaara-kun..bwahahahahahahahaha!!! Gaara is MINE!!! Oh before I forgot..I don't own the song either..its mandy moore's. I figured out that she is well-known so maybe some of you know her songs already. (It is better if you know the song coz you can relate.) To those of you who knows it, you can also play it while reading if you want. While to those who don't know the song, you can download it (i think) but it isn't really that necessary. Anyways, in this chappie the song that i used is "only hope" by mandy moore. Ok, so I got to stop now, my disclaimer corner is really getting long. No, its long already. Oh well... :) Sorry for keeping you a little while to read my author's notes and disclaimer! Enjoy reading! Please remember to read the footnote!
(italicised words...thinking)
(--... p.o.v)
The sun set a little while ago and darkness took over Konoha. Its starting to get late and you can barely see a thing in the streets.
The people are very exhausted and tired from work that they went home early. Not to mention, everybody is preparing for a big festival tomorrow. Its a special occassion in Konoha that they always prepare for. Everybody takes a 1 week rest from all the work and try to enjoy themselves in the festival. Everybody seems to be excited for tomorrow judging by the empty streets. But then again maybe not. You can barely see the raven-haired boy walking in the darkness of the night alone and pretty much satisfied with the surroundings.
"What a day!" he says out of nowhere "Im glad this day is over! I had a really bad day." he thought smirking at the trouble he got himself into. Looking on the bright side, at least he already got rid of his fangirls. After all the chasing and running that happened, you can really tell he is exhausted. His pale-cheeks are the proof to it. "And tomorrow is gonna be worse..great.." he grumbled. He stopped walking and leaned on the post next to him. He really got to take a rest. Even for just a few minutes.
His eyes wondered around a narrow corner of the street. He suddenly stopped when he saw the poster in the wall. The poster sure did caught his attention. It says: "Everybody is encourage to come in the summer festival that is gonna be held in the park from 8am-8pm starting tomorrow to Sunday. Our very own Hokage-sama is gonna be the speaker for the opening day. There will also be fun booths, games and activities that will surely pump up your energy. And then the day will end with beautiful fireworks on Sunday at 10 pm. So please come..It promises to be an exciting day for all."
"Hn. Encourage, huh? Yeah right...more like forced to me." he cursed under his breath
Sasuke hates festivals. Its when his fangirls get the chance to ruin his day and get away with it. Its because everyone is expected to come since its a very important occassion. They won't take no for an answer. And then after a minute or two he started walking again.
He is not really in the mood to go in the festival. Not after him being chased by his fangirls earlier this afternoon asking for him to go out with them. This really pissed him off. And to top it all of..the fight between him and Naruto because of a certain pink-haired girl didn't make him feel any better either. That fight was the best of the worst.
"Naruto, you baka" he muttered in irritation
--Flashback--
"Ne, Sasuke-kun, do you mind if i walk with you on my way home? Its kinda passing your house anyway." a pink-haired girl said with a sound of desperation.
"No" sasuke said in a cold manner he usually does. He already knows where this is going. He knows that Sakura just wants to ask if she can go out with him for tomorrow's festival. And to be honest, now is not the best time for asking. Not as if anytime is the best time. But then again, the fangirls already pushed him to his limits. And anytime now he is ready to explode.
"Please, Sasuke..and its not what your thinking..really.." sakura said not giving up
"No" he said again but louder this time. He's not losing his cool to her but it doesn't mean he's gonna say yes. Why, he don't even want to go to that festival. Its just a waste of time for him.
"But Sasuke..please..? I promise I'm not gonna bug you or anything..I just wanna walk with you." she said trying as hard as ever to convince him to say yes
"yeah, right.." sasuke thought. But this time he didn't answer. He'll stay quiet and hopefully she'll leave him alone. Or else...
"Please, Sasuke..I.." she tried again. She thought she's getting close into convincing him but what she didn't know how wrong she was..
"Leave me alone! I'm not even going to that stupid festival." sasuke said and then turned around to her emerald eyes and continued "Your annoying as ever, Haruno!" sasuke said. Hopefully, Sakura will leave him alone now.
Well, he sure did a succesful job because Sakura stopped talking already. Her hands are in her mouth and you could tell she is surprise.
Sasuke turned his back and started walking again. He doesn't really want that to happen but she pushed him to do it.
"Sasuke!!!!! You bbbbaaaaakkkkaaaa!" someone shouted.
"Great, just great...the person who i last wanna saw is here." sasuke thought
"What do you want, loudmouth?" sasuke shouted back. Then he faced the angry blonde who was infact Naruto. Who would ever mistaken Naruto's voice for another person? The boy has the loudest and the most talkative mouth ever in the whole universe.
"Sakura-chan, are you ok?" naruto said. He was kneeling on the ground comforting Sakura who is sitting there, hands in her face and tears streaming down her face. Naruto tried to wipe out her tears with his hands but she slapped it.
"I'm fine, Naruto.." she said with a tone in her voice. She doesn't want to sound rude to him. Afterall, Naruto is just trying to help. But she can't help it..she doesn't want Naruto comforting her, she wants Sasuke by her side.
And as for Sasuke, he is just standing there watching the scene. He don't want to see this. He thinks its annoying. Infact, he doesn't even have time for this. He has some training to do and his precious time is being wasted. "What a crap!" he thought
"What are you saying again? Better make it fast. You are wasting my time, dobe!" sasuke said rolling his eyes
"Why you heartless bastard! You hurted Sakura-chan's feelings! I don't know why you act like that but leave Sakura-chan out of it! You didn't even bother saying sorry! What a bastard you are!" naruto said. With that, he stood up and punched his left cheek.
Sasuke stumbled backward. He knew this would happen but he didn't know why he didn't move in the first place. Weird..what is with him today, anyway? "Are you through now? I hope you got what you want. Now,leave me alone. I have more important things to do unlike you." he said flatly
"How dare you! In truth, you are a big stuck-up playboy who likes hurting girls' feelings. Why do you enjoy hurting other people's feelings anyway?! What's up with that? If you are mad because of your past, then don't.." naruto tried to finish what he was saying but he was interrupted by Sakura.
"That's enough, Naruto! And don't hurt Sasuke again!" she managed to say between sobs
"But Sakura-chan!" naruto exclaimed. He can't believe what he is hearing. Why do Sasuke always gets away with everything?
Then, Sasuke started walking again as if nothing happened.
"Your lucky sasuke, that Sakura-chan is here to stop me! But once you do that again to Sakura-chan, you are gonna pay!" naruto shouted
Sasuke just walked away no expression as always but in the inside he was thinking about what Naruto said..
--End of Flashback--
Sasuke's P.O.V.
What does that bastard thinks he is! I'm not a coward! He doesn't even stand a chance against me! And now, I can't concentrate with my training. Hn..That Naruto! He's a jinx! Naruto you bastard!!! You baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!!Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! And I'm not a playboy! Isn't all the running the proof?! I never wanted attention from the first place anyway! If he wants it then i'll be ever more gladly to give it..that's if i can...i do hope i can!! Naruto!! You bastard!! Naruto you baka baka baka!! Wait? Where am I, anyway? This, this is the...ce-men-te-ry?! What brought me here? Huh? A voice? What the? It sounds like someone is here. I followed the voice and soon I reached the place where the sound came from. I hid behind a tall oak tree. I wonder why someone would pick the cementery as a place for hanging out. I draw closer to the voice and hid myself on one of the gravestones. I saw a woman with black long hair standing in front of one gravestone, arms crossed in her chest. Though, I can't see her face, I can tell she is pale just by the color of her skin. She wears this simple white gown, it make her seem paler because of its color. The gown's sleeves are transparent and it has a white ribbon tied on her waist extending to her back. There is some little ruffles in the lower part of the gown and I can't see much on what's in the front of it. I can only see her sideways and the darkness didn't help me either on knowing who she is. Then i paid attention to what she's saying. No, she's singing. And then i heard this:
There's a song that's inside of my soul It's the one that i've tried to write over and over again I'm awake in the infinite cold But you sing to me over and over and over again
So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours I pray To be only yours I know now youre my only hope
Sing to me the song of the stars Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again When it feels like my dreams are so far Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again
So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours I pray To be only yours I know now youre my only hope
I give you my destiny I'm giving you all of me I want your symphony singing in all that i am At the top of my lungs im giving it back
So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours I pray To be only yours i pray To be only yours I know now youre my only hope
Hmm..hmm..ooohhh....
I stand there hearing all those things. I admit that the song she just sang was weird, I can't understand what or who she's singing it for. But, she has a very beautiful voice. I've never heard anything so beautiful like that. Her voice is so..an-ge-lic. Its so peaceful and calm. Who is she? I activated my sharingan for some unknown reason. But after I did that, she looked at the place where I am hiding. At that point, I know she already noticed me. I came out from my hideout and with no expression I asked "Who are you? And why would someone pick a cementery for singing purposes?" It came out more like a demand and criticism. She gasped but she said nothing at all. I still can't see her face nor figure out who she is. It's too dark. Add the tall oak tree that covers the light from the moon. I moved closer but she started to move backwards too. She turned around and prepared to jump on the tree. Luckily, before she could take off, I got a hold of her hand. I was surprised, her hand is cold. It is cold yet soft. She grabbed her hand away from me and pushed me forcefully. She pushed me hard that I hitted the tree. She hesitated on taking off, I realize she feels guilty. I stood up and she gave a little gasp. I think she had realised by now that i'm not hurt because she turned around again and almost got away when I went after her. She surprised me when she threw 4 kunais on me. I never thought someone like her was actually a ninja. She seemed so gentle. I dodge all of her kunais. At least I think so. I could tell that she is surprised to know that I am a ninja too. Her body is shaking a little bit and I realised she was scared. She started performing some handseals and I prepared in a fighting stance. I never thought asking her name would be this too complicated. Well, maybe she has a point in defending herself. She might have thought that I am a rapist or something. Hell no, I am not! All I wanted is to know her name because I'm curious, nothing else. "Hello? is there anyone here?" a voice distracted me. I didn't mean to turn around but I just did. It's like a reflex action. The next thing i know she's gone. I guess the voice also distracted her that she didn't continued doing her jutsu or maybe she just don't wanna hurt anyone else. Who knows?
End of Sasuke's P.O.V
"If it isn't the famous Uchiha Sasuke! So, Uchiha-san what are you doing in here late at night? Is this your new hideout from your fangirls?" said the particular voice I just heard awhile ago.
"What?" sasuke said harshly. He, after all, distracted me, that's why the mysterious girl got away. Then he turned around and saw an old man.
"Now now, there's no reason to be harsh. I was just kidding. If you want to stay here suite yourself. Just make sure you don't make any noise. She might be angry and attack you." said the old man
"She? Wha-- Are you talking about a woman with long black hair, who is wearing a white gown? You know her?" sasuke said. The harsh tone turned into a curious one. The old man let out a soft chuckle.
"No, no, you got it all wrong...She is the ghost that is haunting this cementery. Legend says that this was her house a long time ago and she returned here to guard for something..a buried treasure perhaps. But I tell you son, don't go looking for it because if you do that your taking a big risk, your life." said the old man in a serious tone.
"There's no such thing as ghost. For all I know, old people can really be imaginative" sasuke said smirking
"Yes there is. But i think she is a good ghost. Afterall, she takes care of the gravestones and all. Sometimes, I can even see flowers and candles beside gravestones in the morning. And one thing, she got a really good voice. Sometimes, I can hear her from my cottage. I just listen to her, I don't want disturb her. I never knew she is that violent. She never had attacked anyone before. I guess you're the first victim, huh? What did you do to make her all that angry, anyway? You know Uchiha-san, you better learn to butt off other people's business especially of the undead. There's worse things that could happen than that wound. Come on, i'll tend to your wounds, it might get infection. You don't want your girls being worried, do you?" the old man says
"Not very funny.." sasuke said. He never realised that he had a wound until now. He guess one kunai slipped out of his control. He didn't really dodged it all. It means that girl is quite a competitive ninja.
Or maybe a competitive ghost? Anyway, ghost or no ghost, sasuke is not gonna give up until he figures it all out.
"Come on, Uchiha-san...don't be shy.." the old man teased
Then Sasuke just followed, he had no choice anyway. He is wounded and he needs to be attended. And to add to that, the old man is dragging him into his cottage so he doesn't really have much of a choice.
Later that evening it rained, Sasuke has no choice but to stay with the old man and his lame camp stories. It's something about his "adventures". No wonder, the ghost story might just be some kind of a misunderstanding or something. It might be...Sasuke don't really believe in ghost so he refused to believe the old man's story. Whatever fate has instore for him, its really really annoying him. First the fangirls, then Sakura, then Naruto, then the mystery girl and now this old man. And tomorrow is not gonna be any better than today, that's what he's sure of. But one thing bugs him the most..the girl in the cementery. "I wonder who she is.." sasuke thought
FunFacts: Did you know that "only hope" is a song that is addressed to God? Yupz, its true! Hehehe..just saying coz it got something to do with my story...Here's a yuki-cookie for all of you who already knows it. reviewers throws back cookies hhheeeyyy!!--me...
Footnote:
I'm really sorry for any wrong grammar and spelling. And if they act out of character, I'm sorry for that too. I'm glad though that you read it. I will really appreciate if you leave some comments. And I do accept criticisms, as long as it's a fact, it's precise and it is helpful. I'm always open to suggestions that will actually give me ideas and help me improve my writing. I want to do my best and hopefully improve even just a little bit in every chappie that I'll make. Don't flame me if YOU DON'T LIKE the pairing, because if that's the case it's unreasonable to me because I already putted up the pairing in the summary. This is gonna be a sasuhinagaa...if you don't know yet. I think I'm gonna update after 2 weeks or when I get a free time. But 2 weeks will be my deadline so hope you join me on the next chappie, ne? So, that's pretty much all of it. Now, why don't you click that little purple "Go" button on your left side??? Please? I'll share my gaara-kun to you if you did...(nnoo!!! gaara-kun's mine! all mine!)!!!
Gaara: Hn..I was never yours!
Me: Yes you are...you are mine all mine!! bwahahhaha!!
Gaara: Hn..You are annoying!!! I'll just kill you with my sand...sabaku no...
Me: (runs) nnooooo!!!! Ok, guys, see you next time! But for now, I got to run for my life!!! aaaahhhh!!!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything in naruto. But I do wish I own some of the characters like Gaara, Hinata, Sasuke, Naruto, Neji, Temari, Kurenai, Kakashi and Ino. Ok, so pretty much everybody else on the show... but you can't blame me...I think they are all so cool. Especially my gaara-kun..bwahahahahahahahaha!!! Gaara is MINE!!! Oh before I forgot..I don't own the song either..its mandy moore's. I figured out that she is well-known so maybe some of you know her songs already. (It is better if you know the song coz you can relate.) To those of you who knows it, you can also play it while reading if you want. While to those who don't know the song, you can download it (i think) but it isn't really that necessary. Anyways, in this chappie the song that i used is "only hope" by mandy moore. Ok, so I got to stop now, my disclaimer corner is really getting long. No, its long already. Oh well... :) Sorry for keeping you a little while to read my author's notes and disclaimer! Enjoy reading! Please remember to read the footnote!

"Now now, there's no reason to be harsh. I was just kidding. If you want to stay here suite yourself. Just make sure you don't make any noise. She might be angry and attack you." said the old man
"She? Wha-- Are you talking about a woman with long black hair, who is wearing a white gown? You know her?" sasuke said. The harsh tone turned into a curious one. The old man let out a soft chuckle.
"No, no, you got it all wrong...She is the ghost that is haunting this cementery. Legend says that this was her house a long time ago and she returned here to guard for something..a buried treasure perhaps. But I tell you son, don't go looking for it because if you do that your taking a big risk, your life." said the old man in a serious tone.
"There's no such thing as ghost. For all I know, old people can really be imaginative" sasuke said smirking
"Yes there is. But i think she is a good ghost. Afterall, she takes care of the gravestones and all. Sometimes, I can even see flowers and candles beside gravestones in the morning. And one thing, she got a really good voice. Sometimes, I can hear her from my cottage. I just listen to her, I don't want disturb her. I never knew she is that violent. She never had attacked anyone before. I guess you're the first victim, huh? What did you do to make her all that angry, anyway? You know Uchiha-san, you better learn to butt off other people's business especially of the undead. There's worse things that could happen than that wound. Come on, i'll tend to your wounds, it might get infection. You don't want your girls being worried, do you?" the old man says
"Not very funny.." sasuke said. He never realised that he had a wound until now. He guess one kunai slipped out of his control. He didn't really dodged it all. It means that girl is quite a competitive ninja.
Or maybe a competitive ghost? Anyway, ghost or no ghost, sasuke is not gonna give up until he figures it all out.
"Come on, Uchiha-san...don't be shy.." the old man teased
Then Sasuke just followed, he had no choice anyway. He is wounded and he needs to be attended. And to add to that, the old man is dragging him into his cottage so he doesn't really have much of a choice.
Later that evening it rained, Sasuke has no choice but to stay with the old man and his lame camp stories. It's something about his "adventures". No wonder, the ghost story might just be some kind of a misunderstanding or something. It might be...Sasuke don't really believe in ghost so he refused to believe the old man's story. Whatever fate has instore for him, its really really annoying him. First the fangirls, then Sakura, then Naruto, then the mystery girl and now this old man. And tomorrow is not gonna be any better than today, that's what he's sure of. But one thing bugs him the most..the girl in the cementery. "I wonder who she is.." sasuke thought
FunFacts: Did you know that "only hope" is a song that is addressed to God? Yupz, its true! Hehehe..just saying coz it got something to do with my story...Here's a yuki-cookie for all of you who already knows it. reviewers throws back cookies hhheeeyyy!!--me...
Footnote:
I'm really sorry for any wrong grammar and spelling. And if they act out of character, I'm sorry for that too. I'm glad though that you read it. I will really appreciate if you leave some comments. And I do accept criticisms, as long as it's a fact, it's precise and it is helpful. I'm always open to suggestions that will actually give me ideas and help me improve my writing. I want to do my best and hopefully improve even just a little bit in every chappie that I'll make. Don't flame me if YOU DON'T LIKE the pairing, because if that's the case it's unreasonable to me because I already putted up the pairing in the summary. This is gonna be a sasuhinagaa...if you don't know yet. I think I'm gonna update after 2 weeks or when I get a free time. But 2 weeks will be my deadline so hope you join me on the next chappie, ne? So, that's pretty much all of it. Now, why don't you click that little purple "Go" button on your left side??? Please? I'll share my gaara-kun to you if you did...(nnoo!!! gaara-kun's mine! all mine!)!!!
