Disclaimer and some warnings: They are all in the first chapter. As always, beware the OOC-ness (even if i make an inhuman effort to mantain them as IC (In-Character) as possible) and the yaoi (that is on this chapter).

Fourth Chapter - Another Destiny
As we walk, i notice we enter an ghost sector of Konoha; the part that belongs to the former Uchiha clan. It's easy to figure why no one lives here; Who would stay at the place that one of the biggest massacres in Konoha happened? My guide was in silence since we entered the section, maybe affected by the place's aura (or maybe Sakura has finally made Naruto a sociable person).
At last, the main Uchiha mansion. When Naruto knocks on the door, the one that greets us is none other than a young, blonde kunoichi. "Hi, Naruto! Who's your friend?" So Ino is as loud-mouthed as ever. "I'm Aoi, Yamanaka-san. Pleased to meet you." She asked the ninja, not me. It doesn't matter now, does it? "How did he know my name?" Ino, like everyone else, asked that too. "It's a long story, Ino-chan. You won't believe it." Oh, Naruto is sooo right. "Fine, fine... Say, what are you two doing here?" Now that she asks, what is Naruto going to do? "He just wants to chat with Sasuke, and i'm going home; there are lots of things to do!" This answers my question. Even if i don't have idea of what he has to do at home.
Blond ninja goes to home, while i wave my hand and say bye. "Come in; Sasuke is in the kitchen." I follow her across some doors, only to meet a not-so-happy face staring at me. "Hi, Uchiha-san. I'm Aoi, nice to meet you" Nice my ass-- Sasuke isn't a confortable person to look at. "Who is he?" He asks Ino. "Just a guest, Sasuke-kun. Naruto brought him here, although i'm not sure of what he wants." Neither me. "I just want to know some things. Why did you go after Sasuke?"
"First things first; how you knew us all?" Ino asks. Here we go, again. "You may not believe, but i have various motives to believe i'm not from this world." she just raises an eyebrow, while he only looks at me. "Ask hokage-sama for more details. Now, could you please answer me?" I'm not in the mood to explain it all again. "Well, okay... It happened when the boys came back from the rescue mission. Naruto wasn't able to fulfill his promise, but Sakura said that they would try to forget that and rebuild their lives, without Sasuke-kun. I was there too, waiting for Sasuke-kun, that they weren't able to bring back."
"I noticed her intention; to forget Sasuke-kun and restart with Naruto. I slapped her face hard; She deserved it. Then i said if she wanted to just abandon Sasuke-kun, fine, he could always depend on me. And then i rushed out of the hospital, packed my equipment, and left Konoha, in search of Sasuke-kun. This quest for bringing him back took one month." Oh my. What a story, if you ask me. Sincerely, i must have some kind of empathy; to make someone that almost doesn't know you speak so much is quite a feat. "And how you did bring him back?" That was the story i wanted to knew, right from the start. "I... I don't want to tell it. Sorry. I want to not remember it." And that what Ino had to say. i turn to Sasuke, to no avail. What happened in that month? "Then just answer me a last question; Are you two only, uh... Friends?"
Ino sits on Sasuke's lap. "Of course not! Did you think that i, Yamanaka Ino, would be "just a friend" of Sasuke-kun!" So they too are dating. Is spending time with Sasuke a good thing? "Oh, look at the time! Bye, boys, i have to go!" And she goes. This was so Narutoish. After she is gone, Sasuke gets up and starts to show me the home. Guess he hasn't forgotten his manners and etiquette. I ask him some things, like what you see with the sharingan, how's the feeling of having a cursed seal, and other unimportant questions (he doesn't answer me about nothing relationed to the one month). I also explain the same i told to hokage-sama (the fact of having all of them in a anime).
After twenty minutes or so of chatting, i discover that spending time with Sasuke isn't exactly the best thing to do (even when you are a Naruto fan as i am); so i ask for him to take me back to hokage-sama's residence. "It's not far from here. No problem for me." After closing the door, we walk to hokage-sama's house. However...
Our trip went across a plaza. In our opposite direction, walked Naruto; but he was looking down and mumbling something. Also, he weared a jeans and a orange t-shirt (in which was written I Luv Ramen). The most interesting was that he was so distracted (and Sasuke was distracted too, as he was looking up, with arms crossed) that they bumped. "Oh, i'm sorry, i wasn't paying atten-- Sasuke?... Sasuke!" He hugged Sasuke tightly. "Finally, i found you!" Naruto then kissed him on the neck, and started to slowly pass his fingers through Sasuke's hair. "Oh god, how much i missed you..." Meanwhile, poor Uchiha was blushing madly; and apparently liking it, as he didn't react. When he notices that i'm staring, he breaks free from Naruto (if it is him), and put his hand on his heart. "Wh-what was that, dobe!" I was going to ask that too. Besides, there's something strange; he isn't with the forehead protector, and no ninja weapons, either.
Naruto just looked confused. "Ah, it seems you found him first. And i thought you were lost in this city." When Sasuke sees who spoke, sharingan appears, and his face contorts into pure hatred. When i see who spoke, my eyes widen.
Uchiha... Itachi...
End Chapter-----
A/N: Yay! Biggest chapter ever (of this fic, at least)! I made it this big so everyone forget that i took so much time to update. Also "Naruto" isn't being OOC! Can you figure why?
Sincerely... To me, it is now that the fic starts-- these first four chapters are there just for explanation... If you have something to comment, please review. And expect lots of revelations on the next chapter. Last commentary; this fic needs a genre that suits it better. Do you have a opinion?
