The Saga Still Continues:
"Sai," she said turning to him, tears about to flow but she wouldn't let them break through, "I had a premonition of the far away future. On the KIA stones you're name was engraved and the date you...you know...was there too. It was absolutely huge too, amazingly beautiful your friends paid great homage for you..." Her voice was beginning to get weaker and her eyes as full of tears as they could be without crying. NO! I can't do this! Emotionless... Serenity remembered and held the tears back yet again.
"The last part was the actual moment when you died, and how. I knew that if I came today, early enough to find you and wait for the opportune moment I would be able to help you, and the others I hoped." Serenity said.
"How? I mean what did you see in your premonition?" Sasuke asked, not really sure if he wanted to know.
"Sacrifice, for..." she turned to Naruto, "For you Naruto. You were beaten to the point of exhaustion and your Chakra was completely down from the shadow clone Jutsu, you couldn't even stand, or...or even stay conscious...There was only one thing left to do for Haku seeing that one of you wasn't even able to move. Set a trap for the one standing, Sai of course saw right through the trap, but couldn't just let you die like that, so he lunged in front of you to stop the attack, just in time to kill Haku but..." These tears, and emotions, I am going to have to train myself to control them better, or my ninja career will not succeed. Serenity thought.
"Sai, you died in Naruto's arms when he woke up just in time to catch you from falling down backwards. You told him to not ever give up on his dream." Serenity finished. All in shock but still interested. It was silent for a bit after that. She came back for me, just for one ninja. Maybe we do have a chance again, if she will stay. Wow...
It was Sasuke who finally broke the long awkward silence, "And you...you came back for me, to save me? I thought that you left, you agreed not to let us..."
"Yes, I know I told that he REALLY loved me and this life was just too painful...but this...this has changed everything." Serenity answered Sasuke. I hope that he will forgive me for what I did... Serenity thought.
Kakashi, being the pervert that he is, he saw an opportunity for them to "connect " again. He said, "Sakura, why don't you help Naruto with his wounds now? OK!" Trying to push them both out the door.
"But Kakashi sensei! Things are just starting to pic..."Naruto began, but Kakashi shoved them both out the door as he followed them out.
"How's your arm?" Serenity asked to break the silence of them being alone together in the same room together again.
"I'll live...Does this mean you chose me over hi...I mean do you choose becoming a ninja over a life of witchcraft?" Sasuke asked as he moved a bit closer to Serenity.
"...Yeah, I think I have finally decided who's world I want to be a part of. This one, with or without you, although I would rather it be with you but if you don't forgive me or don't want me anymore I'll understand. Just know that your decision isn't going to change mine about becoming a ninja, ok." Serenity answered back.
"Without me? How would life as a ninja be interesting without me!" he said.
"So you mean you forgive me, that this might work after all, even with us both becoming shinobis? You realize that the shinobi is trained to show no emotions at all." Serenity said.
"Yes, I realize this. And no matter how much I tried tonight at the beginning to not show any emotion for you, it didn't work. To become a shinobi is a long road, and we'll make it work out together. I promise we will. No matter what. Promise." he replied.
They leaned forward towards each other and kissed. Sasuke beginning to push her down on the couch and move his hand downwards...She wrapped her arms around his neck, as he was about to take her pants off,
"This does mean that you'll let me train you too Serenity?" Kakashi asked, he had been watching the whole time ever since he had sent Naruto and Sakura out, without them knowing of course.
"Kakashi! Do you even NEED to ask? Of course man!" Sasuke answered for her. Then Kakashi left for real this time.
