Author Note: Once again I saw how many mistakes I made in the last chapter.
I'm such a dobe sometimes with my spelling. *sigh* what am I thinking? Well
what's done is done and as a reminder to you I don't need any flames on how
wrong I spell and other things. I'm beating myself up all I can as it is
right now. Well I'm glad I got so many "obsessed" with my cliff hanger, I
know I was a real pain in the butt to end it there but I couldn't help it.
^_^
Review Note: Ookima I know how much you love this story and you will probably love this new chapter but you would probably also try to strangle me if you could once you've read it but if you hang on I will try to come up with next chapter very soon.
Summary: Well it seems that Naruto is back somehow but is it really him or just someone that look like him? Sasuke must face the possibility of it. His mind tells him Naruto is dead and that he knows it but his heart says that he may be is alive. How can you give up even when your heart gives you a little bit of hope.
Couples: SasuNaru, HinaNeji, SakuLee.

What you left me
by Monkan
Chapter 5
Sasuke stared at Satoshi. "Nani?" That was all he could get out.
Satoshi pointed at the picture. "That's the man that helped me."
Sasuke stared at the photo. "No, it can't be him. He's dead, remember?" Sasuke's head was spinning, why did this have to happen to him?
Satoshi shock his head. "Iie. That's him." Satoshi said stubbornly. Why didn't daddy believe him?
Sasuke grasped Satoshi's arm firmly but gently at the same time. Something in him was beginning to wake up again. Hope. "Are you sure?" He asked even if his mind was screaming at him that it was impossible.
"Hai. His hair was just longer and he didn't have any scars on his cheeks."
Sasuke stared right ahead. Not really seeing anything. His world was spinning around him. He knew that Naruto was gone and he had tried to accept it but his heart had always told him that his love was still alive, somehow. Even if he had seen all he needed to know Naruto was dead he just couldn't accept it. It's something his heart never had been able to face. He had been alone for five years and still his heart ached whenever he heard Naruto's name. It was a fight between what his mind knew and what his heart felt. How could you decide what to do when you are split in half with the love you feel but know that in the end you will be more miserable if it turned out to be wrong?
*Even if it's not Naruto I still need the chance, if not to have him back in my life but to finally be able to say good bye to his ghost.*
Sasuke felt some one tug on his sleeve. "Daddy?"
Sasuke looked down to see Satoshi was looking at him with worried eyes. *Only this last time. This last time to maybe take back what was taken from me and Satoshi.*
"Daddy?" Satoshi asked a little sad. Had he said something to make his dad sad again.
"Satoshi, are you really sure it was him?" Sasuke asked in a slight desperate voice.
All Satoshi could do was nod as he felt his daddy's arms around him tighten before standing up with Satoshi safely in his arms so he didn't fell. With fast steps Sasuke half ran back to their friends. When he saw them at a café he slowed down. Hinata raised her head when she felt some one approach them.
"Sasuke-kun. You're back!" She said in a happy voice. The others looked up to see Sasuke coming toward them with Satoshi in his arms. Satoshi's friends waved at Satoshi.
Neji frowned little as he saw how Satoshi held to Sasuke's shirt, holding a picture in his hand. Sasuke came to a stop in front of them. "Can you watch over Satoshi for me? I need to speak to the Hokage."
Hinata nodded. "Ano sa, Sasuke-kun. Did something happen?"
Sasuke didn't answer. He just let Satoshi down in Hinata's lap and was running away from them the next moment. All of them looked after him. What happen to him to act like that.
Satoshi watched his dad leave as he held the picture tightly in his hand. He felt some one grasp his shoulder. He looked up to see Hinata's kind face. "What happen?" She asked.
Satoshi looked down with sad eyes while he clutched the picture in his hand against his chest.
Neji observed Satoshi. It wasn't hard to see that the little boy blamed himself for whatever happens to make Sasuke act like that. He saw the picture in his hand. "What's that, Satoshi-san?" Neji pointed at Satoshi's hand.
Satoshi looked up before giving Neji the picture. Once Neji unfolded it his breath caught in his throat. *Sasuke... what...*
Neji looked at Satoshi with a look that told him he didn't understand. "That's the man that helped me." Satoshi said while he pointed at Naruto's face.
Neji looked at Satoshi with a shocked expression as it hit him what was going on.
*Sasuke... is you still chasing ghosts? When will your heart stop trying to accept facts when it has to. Please, stop hurting yourself and Satoshi.*
**********
Sasuke ran all the way through Konoha's streets to the building where Tsunade-sama should be. He saw a two shinobi that had just come out of the Hokage's office. He ran past them and came to a halt at the door. He knocked once before just entering.
Tsunade and the other Kages sat in her room talking and all turned to see who intruded on them again. Much to her surprise on who entered. "Uchiha Sasuke. What can I do for you?" The old but still young looking lady behind the desk asked him.
"I need your help again." Sasuke just said as he walked over to a table where the glass orb sat on it's pillow. He picked it up before bringing it over to Tsunade. "I need your help to find some one!"
Tsunade sighed. "Sasuke, are you still chasing Naruto's ghost? When are you going to stop this before it kills you?"
Sasuke stood almost pleadingly in front of her. "Please this is the last time. I need to know that after 5 years I can let him go."
Tsunade shock her head. "This isn't the first time you've asked me when you had a feeling he was still alive and around. How can you live with this life you have? It's clear that you are still hurting from Naruto's death but he wouldn't want you to get through this for him. It will only hurt you more when it proves you were wrong."
"I know that it will hurt me if I'm wrong but Satoshi was sure it was Naruto that helped him earlier and I need to know if it's him or not."
That caught everyone's attention. "The man that... you mean that man..." Tsunade's word's halted.
"Are you saying that the man that helped your son against those men is Uzumaki Naruto?" Kazekage asked.
Sasuke turned his head and just nodded before turning back to Tsunade. "How can he be alive?" The other female kage asked.
"I don't know but I don't care at the moment if it's him I just want to find that man." Sasuke said as he stood beside Tsunade.
His eyes pleading with her. She nodded reluctantly before activating the orb in front of her again. Since she knew little on how the man in question looked like it made it easier to locate him. The wide dark hat came into view and it wouldn't let them see his face.
"There he is. He's at the ramen shop." Tsunade said once she recognized the surrounding around the man. He was sitting on a corner chair with a bowl of ramen in front of him.
The door flung open and Sasuke was gone in a matter of seconds. Leaving five people looking after him. Kazekage looked back into the orb and the man that could be some one they thought had been dead for 5 years. Then something strange hit him about the scene. "Why isn't he eating his food?"
Everyone looked at the man in the black hat. They all saw it now when Kazekage said it. The man wasn't touching his ramen. It just stood in front of him like some kind of object.
The man lifted his head but still so they couldn't see his face. He then paid for his ramen and walked away. Leaving something at the chair he sat on.
************
Sasuke jumped from roof to roof in his race to get to the ramen shop before the man was gone. He could hear the laughed from the festival but he felt so far away from it at the moment.
*Could it be him? Could it really be him?* Sasuke jumped down to the street and ran the little distance left until he was at the ramen shop he had often visited with Naruto.
When he entered he didn't see the man anywhere in sight. *Kuso. I missed him.* Sasuke slammed his fist into the wall. The old man behind the counter looked up at him, shaking his head. *He can't be far...* something caught his attention when he was about to turn around again.
Sasuke stared at it as memories flooded his mind. He walked over to the chair slowly and picked up the little Sakura pedal that laid on it. The pink colour was smooth and clean. Just like it should be, just like it had been. Just like it had been in Naruto's hand. . .
~^~Flashback~^~
Naruto and Sasuke had been sparing from early morning and it was getting dark now and both had been just as stubborn and refused to give up before the other one was down first. Now both could hardly stand up as they had sweat dripping all over them. They looked into each others eyes and came to a silent agreement that no one won the match.
They walked slowly over to a tree where Naruto was the first to collapse down to the ground. He was breathing hard. He had taken of his jacket and was left in his trade mark orange pants and the black shirt he had under. Sasuke followed suit not long after, right next to Naruto. His own shirt was soaked right through and it clung to his skin. His bangs had sweat drops in them, making his hair shine blacker when the sun hit it. He looked over at Naruto and saw that he had his eyes closed as he tried to take his breathing under control. Sasuke reached out with his hand and gently grasped Naruto's, twining their fingers together.
Naruto looked up with half closed eyes at Sasuke. He smiled the best could manage with his energy depletion. Even he had his limits some days and after this intense training Kakashi-sensei put them through he was tired as well.
Naruto rested his head against Sasuke's shoulder. He once again closed his eyes but this time he was breathing slower.
Sasuke smiled softly at his lover before he too closed his eyes and rested his head against Naruto's head. They sat there for several minutes until Sasuke felt something flutter against his face.
He lifted his head as he open his eyes. Rousing Naruto at the same time. Their eyes fell to the pink flower pedal that lay on Naruto's leg. It was a Sakura pedal.
Naruto picked it up gently and it felt soft and cold as he held it in his palm. He looked at it before holding it closer to Sasuke. He held it out to him with a smile on his face.
"Off all the flowers I've seen, Sakura pedals are my favourites. I don't know why but they just are." He said. "I usually go somewhere they are when I feel sad or miss you."
Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "How am I supposed to know where you are so you don't have to miss me?"
Naruto thought for a moment. Then his face lit up like he had the most brilliant idea.
"How about this. Whenever you find a Sakura pedal in our house or at the ramen shop all you have to do is search for a place with Sakura trees. I will be there, waiting abut you."
Sasuke closed his hand over the one Naruto was holding the pedal. The soft material caressed his palm as well as the heat from Naruto's hand.
~^~End Flashback~^~
Sasuke closed his fingers around the pink flower. "Are you waiting for me there?" Sasuke took of again down Konoha's streets. *There was only one place he went to with Sakura trees.*
He was about to take a short cut when he was roughly stopped by a hand on his arm. When he turned he saw Neji with Lee and Shikamaru standing there. There was something about their faces that made him worried.
"What's the matter? Have something happen?"
Neji didn't let go but his grip tighten. He actually looked nervous. That only made Sasuke more nervous.
"Sasuke. . ." Neji started but he didn't know how to continue. "Satoshi is gone."
Sasuke world froze when he heard those words. "Na... nani?" Sasuke couldn't think as his mind tried to take in what he had been told.
"We don't know what happen. He was with us then he wanted to look at something. Hinata followed with him and a few minutes later she came back running saying she couldn't find him. We've looked everywhere but we can't find Satoshi." Shikamaru said in a hurried and worried voice.
Sasuke felt his legs go weaker with every second that passed. He listen to Neji and Lee explain everything to him how they already had friends and their sensei's looking everywhere for Satoshi.
Neji looked worried at Sasuke. He saw that the man didn't take it well and if he hadn't still be holding onto his arm Sasuke would had crashed to the ground. Neji was literally holding Sasuke up as he couldn't stand up anymore on his own.
This wasn't happening.
***********
Meanwhile in an alley on the other side of Konoha a few men stood talking quietly among themselves.
"Everything is going as planed." One of them said.
"It's soon time."
"Did he give you give you a hard time?"
"Nah, nothing I couldn't handle."
All of them looked at the figure in the corner that was tied up.
"It took us 5 years to come to this. We can't mess this up."
"We know. We are just waiting for him to make his move then tomorrow it will start."
"Are you sure he's stabile enough so he won't come after us again. Last time he almost escaped."
"As long as the orb does its work, it can't fail."
"I hope you are right. I don't want him after me again. He crushed my hand and that's enough for me."
"Will you stop whining about it? Mou, you are annoying."
The talking went on and none of them saw the man in the shadows before he stepped out. Causing some of the others a mild heart attack. His head was angled down so his hat hides his face. A few blond locks escaped from under the hat. They reached about his shoulders the longest of them.
The man watched the tied and gagged figure. The man crouched with one knee in the ground. He reached out with his hand and touched the blond hair of the little boy.
Satoshi looked at the man with big frighten eyes. He didn't move as the man played with his hair for a moment. Satoshi noted that the man hesitated for a moment.
Satoshi looked down at the floor. Not wanting to be where he was. He felt a hand under his chin that lifted his head up. He looked into the face of the stranger and for the first time he saw the face completely.
Blue eyes meet blue eyes. The long blond hair hanged in long spikes around his face where the hat ended around his head. The face was like a more mature copy of the one Satoshi had seen on the picture. The mouth didn't move as he stared at Satoshi, so much unlike the face on the picture. The big difference was that there were only two scars on one of his cheeks, the other one didn't have anything. He had a necklace around his neck that shined in a light red, blue and green colour. Satoshi wasn't sure what that meant, it looked like they were moving around inside the orb before the green colour took over and pushed the other two colours out of the way and into the corners.
Satoshi raised his face and stared at the face above him. "Are you... Naruto?" Satoshi asked.
The man looked back at Satoshi with a blank expression in his eyes.
"That's what they call me."

Author Note: I really hope it reaches your expectations, if only slightly, I worked the whole night to make it ready. Once I got it going it went pretty much very easy to write but I hit a few stops on the way.
Well, I will update my other two stories before I start with chap 6. Don't hurt me but I'm working on one of my stories for a few days before going over to the next one. That's how I manage to work with them right. I don't know if I make much sense right now so I will stop trying to explain. I don't know when the next one will be up but I really hope sometime next week or around Monday the week after that. I maybe will be able to get it up earlier I don't know. Well I'm going back to school work now like I really should be doing. ^_^'
