Kakashi and a few ANBU members went and rescued Sakura and the others. Sakura woke up in the hospital and looked outside the window. Sakura then had old memeroies.
Flashback
Sakura's POV Naruto was at the bridge and saw Sakura walking towards him.
Naruto asked, "Do you want to eat lunch with me today Sakura?" Sakura looked at him and replied, "Not with you! Sasuke...do you want to eat lunch with me?" Sasuke glared at her and replied, "No."
Naruto frowned and started to walk away. Sakura also frowned and thought about what she said to Naruto.
End Flashback
Sakura thought, 'He always cared about me and knew how I felt. Now he's going to kill himself just to get Sasuke.'
Then she started crying. 'How long Naruto? How long have I treated you like dirt?' she thought.
At Akatsuki, Naruto was done training with Itachi and looked outside of his window. He looked at his forehead protector and saw that there was a line across it. It made him remember about the talk he had with Sasuke.
Flashback
Naruto's POV Sasuke said, "Looks like you've gotten stronger but not that strong!"
Naruto looked at him with no emotion in his eyes. Naruto closed his eyes and replied, "You never change Sasuke. I have gotten stronger than you." Sasuke gritted his teeth and clenches his fist.
Then they started to fight again. Sasuke took out his kunai and almost scratched Naruto but scratched his foreheard protector. Naruto exclaimed, "You'll be going back to Konoha one way or the other."
End Flashback
Naruto put back on his forehead protector and felt Rikka behind him. Rikka put her hand on his shoulder and said, "Itachi said that he's going to teach you how to use the Reverse Sharingan." Naruto nodded and left.
Rikka looked out the window and saw her reflection. She had activated her bloodline limit.
The Shadow Mangekyou Hikari. The bloodline limit her clan had. She looked up at the clouds and started to have memeroies.
Flashback
Rikka's POV Rikka was at the riverbank when she felt someone's chakra. She turned around and saw Sasuke.
Sasuke grinned and said, "Hey Rikka." Rikka smiled and replied, "Hey Sasuke. What are you doing here?" Sasuke layed down on the grass and stared at the clouds. He replied, "I needed some time alone after hearing Sakura's outburst."
Rikka giggled a little and stared at her reflection. Rikka closed her eyes and said, "I hope there was a way to stop this battle." Sasuke eyed her and nodded.
They sat there for hours until it was evening. Sasuke got up and asked, "Want to walk home with me?" Rikka glared at him and nodded.
End Flashback
Rikka closed her eyes and felt the wind blowing through her hair. Rikka opened her eyes and frowned. Sasuke was also staring out of the window and frowned. Old memeroies were coming back to him.
Flashback
Sasuke's POV Sasuke was walking to the riverbank and saw Rikka there.
He smiled and went down to her. She felt his chakra and looked at him. Sasuke grinned and said. "Hey Rikka."
She replied, "Hey Sasuke." They talked for a while and started to go home. Fast forward...Sasuke said, "Chidori!" It almost hit Naruto but Rikka appeared in front of him.
Rikka coughed out blood and Sasuke and Naruto stared in shock. S
asuke backed away and Rikka exclaimed, "Sasuke...please...stop..." She almost fell but she kept her strength up. Sasuke had a worried look in his eyes.
End Flashback
Sasuke frowned and thought, 'Why did she protect Naruto? Something isn't right.' Then he fell asleep.
