Chapter 3

Iruka quickened his steps as he approached the door the Naruto's apartment. The night air around him, was not as humid as the previous night, but the heat Iruka felt was not due to the air, but by the tremendous worry within him. Bringing a hard fist against the door, and calling out Naruto's name, Iruka continued knocking loudly and shouting for Naruto. The door suddenly opened as Jiraiya stood standing before him.

"Jiraiya sama..", Iruka began as Jiraiya held a finger to his own lips, pointing upwards, silencing Iruka from any further noise. Iruka, now quietly entered the apartment as Jiraiya closed the door behind him.

"He's asleep in his room", Jiraiya spoke softly, as he saw the frantic look on Iruka's face. Iruka calmed himself down, now knowing that Naruto was safely tucked away, and sat down on a tissue covered table. Iruka starred at the Klinexs, and frowned; looking up at Jiraiya for some explanation. The gray haired man sat himself opposite of the young ninja academy instructor and picked up a scrunched up tissue from the table.

"He...cried himself to sleep", Jiraiya spoke this as a matter of fact as he toss the tissue back on the table. Iruka's eyes widened again.

'He was crying...those damn people. They've gone to far now...", Iruka enraged by the arrogance of his fellow townspeople.

Jiraiya smiled slightly, unsure of how to phrase what he was going to say next to Iruka. "He wasn't crying because of the townspeople".

Iruka stared at the man, unsure now if the situation was worst than what he already knew from what Konohamaru had told him. 'Was he hurt in the accident, fractured or broke something? Does he need a doctor HAS HE SEEN A DOCTOR!", Iruka breathing heavily, feeling the strain of worry intensify in him. Jiraiya again rose a hand to calm Iruka down. "No doctor can heal the amount of pain Naruto is in now. 13 years all he had known was loneliness, and now...these last few days have been to much for him, with the death of the third, and now with Sasuke...", Jiraiya gave a heavy sigh and laid back in his chair, staring above him and the creaking fan gently blowing down on them.

Iruka not sure of what Jiraiya was speaking off, mentioned: "Kakashi has already attended to Sasuke". Jiraiya brought his head down, curiosity in his voice, "Did Kakashi say anything...?", Jiraiya asked wondering if Sasuke had any clue of Naruto's feelings. Iruka shook his head side to side. Jiraiya stood up and and took out the instant Ramens he had brought for Naruto earlier. As he poured the hot water into both containers, silence covered the area, all except for the sound of the pouring water, and a cricket or two every few minutes. Covering the containers with small saucers, Jiraiya placed the container in front of Iruka as he once again sat opposite the man, staring at his covered Ramen.

"Arigato", Iruka said, the depression clearly visible in his voice, as both men began to eat in silence.

Kakashi knocked twice on Sasuke's door before entering. Making his way through the simple layout of the room and heading up the stairs, Kakashi entered Sasuke's room to find the boy sitting on his bed, staring out the window as the sun began it's desent. Sasuke turned his head and stared at Kakashi for a moment before returning his gaze to the window. Kakashi walked carefully towards the young boy and say next to him as he looked at his injured leg. The wound was a slight cut, but it looked like his knee was slightly sprained. Kakashi reached out to pull Sasuke's shorts a bit upward for better access to the knee. The moment Kakashi's hand touched the boys leg, the boy let out a short yell and pushed Kakashi away from him as hard as he could yelling, "DON'T TOUCH ME FAGGOT!".

Kakashi stood, his left eye wide with shock at the pupil he cared for, staring at him a crazed look in his eyes, as he got up of the bed. Sasuke suddenly made a dash for Kakashi, with an array of punches all aimed at his Sensei's head or heart. Kakashi, calmly blocked every swing and finally grabbed both of Sasuke's arms and threw him to the floor as gently as he could. Kakashi pinned both of Sasuke's arms spread wide as he called out the boys name to try and stop him from screaming.

"Go ahead Fag, touch me i know you want to, DO IT! I'll...I'll tell everyone you touched me faggot, than lets see what they do to you...they'll, they'll kill you that's what hahaa, Fucking faggot DIE!".

Kakashi let go of Sasuke's right arm as he in a fit of rage swung a fist clear across the boys face, as a trickle of blood splattered on the floor board beside them. Sasuke was silent now, tears coming down his face as he slightly shook. Kakashi got of him and stood up, leaning his back against a wall shocked at his uncontrolled emotions. After several minutes, accompanied with the sounds of Sasuke sniffling, Kakashi walked over Sasuke's body and ounce again knelt down towards the boy's knee. Reaching forward again, this time Sasuke did not say or move, but allowed his sensei to tend to his knee. Kakashi finishing bandaging the boy's knee, gently took a clean cloth and cleaned the boys face, all the while Sasuke not looking into his eye. Once finished Kakashi did something Sasuke did not expect. Kneeling down on both knees Kakashi scooped Sasuke into his arms and laid him into the bed, pulling the covers comfortably around the boy. Sasuke looked back up at Kakashi, tears of regret now flowing. Kakashi gently stroked his hair ounce and turned to walk out the room.

"See him tomorrow...", Kakashi spoke as he opened the door to Sasuke's room, and left listening to the sounds of a ounce again sobbing Sasuke.

Iruka and Jiraiya finished eating their ramen and continued to stare at each other in silence. Jiraiya stood up and collected both the empty containers and placed them in the garbage bin by the sink. Iruka stretched his arms in the air as he removed himself from the table. Making his way silently to check on Naruto, Iruka saw the light on in the bathroom. Thinking that Naruto was now awake, Iruka stood for a moment and force a smile on his face, not wanting to upset the boy anymore. Knocking twice of the ajar ed door, Iruka opened it smiling, "Oi Naruto, feel like going out to eat ra...". Iruka did not finish his sentence as he screamed Jiraiya's name. Jiraiya came running into the bathroom,as he saw a motionless Naruto on the bathroom floor, a bloody kunai in one hand, and a pool of blood surrounding the boys body emitting from his wrists.
