A/N: Oh yeah! I got lots and lots of reviews and I thank all of you readers for always being there! Yeah, so most of you hate Fugaku now, and maybe are still sad about the last chapter eh? Well, fear not, here come more ANGST! Nah, just kidding! You be the judge of what the genre will be. Tan-tananan! The chapter where Sasuke is- I will not say, you read and find out!

Yakuza

Gunshots were heard as the black and blue bike continued running at top speed, dogging some bullets. The rider ducked his head a bit and made sure the girl in front of him will be safe and unharmed. "This is too ironic, I am kidnapping her yet I am protecting her…" he sighed and made a sharp right turn and a left, losing a few cars that chased after him.

"Shisui, where the hell are you?" he asked through his communicator.

"Turn left and I'll handle the rest." Was the reply he got. Sasuke sighed and did what he was told and later on, a bigger explosion was heard and he stopped his bike and turned behind him, seeing the three cars that were after him all turn to junk as some bits of it came flying in the air. He started to drive back to Sharingan HQ, wanting to get this over with, at the same time, thinking of another plan.

"Damn… I hope it works…"

Chapter 6: Shattered

Sakura didn't know how to react after seeing Sasuke in front of her with a stoic face. Behind him was his father who was beside Mikoto, looking a bit sad. She then wondered where Itachi was.

"Mikoto, go and tell Shisui to free the four traitors…" Fugaku said.

Sakura took note how Sasuke had clenched his fists tightly when his father mentioned the word "traitors". She then eyed Fugaku and raised a brow. "Traitors..? What do you mean by traitors?"

"Why don't you ask your boyfriend here who those people are." The older man said, eyeing his son's behavior. "Go tell her Sasuke, she's waiting."

"Shut up…" muttered Sasuke to his dad, glaring at him. "They're not traitors; you're just too stubborn and too selfish to even consider other people's feelings, to even realize that you plan on killing your own son after throwing him into prison."

"Who are you to talk when you yourself toyed with Sakura?"

That hit a spot and Sasuke used every amount of self-control he had to keep him from getting his gun and killing his dad. "Damn bastard…" he cursed his dad and got a glare from the older man. "I dare you to repeat that Sasuke…"

"Gladly, you damn shit-head, asshole-" he never got to continue after his father took out a gun and gave a knowing look. Sasuke's glare intensified. "You're a wimp, Fugaku, I dare not to call you dad anymore, I never want to be related to a user like you." He continued, not seeming fazed by his father's threat.

Sakura couldn't believe her ears. It was the first time she has seen Sasuke this bad, disrespecting his own father. Was he really that angry and furious? Did he really loathe his father this much? She was beginning to realize everything; Itachi wasn't here because Fugaku had thrown him into prison and attempted to kill him.

"You know, Sakura," Fugaku spoke as she turned to him. "The rules here in Sharingan state that not one member is to have any emotion, did you know that Sasuke is one of my top members? Did I also mention that he's a good actor? Yes, he has fooled a lot of people with his acting; even I myself get deceived whenever he says he loathes me."

Sasuke was at a lost for words. How could his dad do this? Acting? He wasn't even good at it to begin with! He turned to face Sakura, only to see her shaking and clasping a hand on her chest as she panted. He shook with fear, knowing that her heart was aching, and seeing her hurt like this made him want to die right there. In fact, seeing her depressed and heart-broken is already killing him.

"Well then, Sasuke, the traitors have arrived." Fugaku said but Sasuke didn't hear it. His gaze was affixed on Sakura the whole time. Naruto, being Sasuke's best friend, approached the young Uchiha and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Hey, Sasuke…"

"Get her out of here." He murmured, lowering his head and turning around to leave the room. He stopped when he reached the door. "You know where." He added and continued to leave the room, turning to the left.

Shikamaru scratched the back of his head and turned to Itachi, Neji and Naruto. "So, who's going to stop him from destroying the shooting area?" the lazy-genius asked. Itachi sighed and walked out the door, stopping to take a look at Sakura. "Sakura-san, don't believe what our father told you, he always does that to break the ties we have with other people, and believe me, I've known Sasuke since he was born, he's a really bad actor." And he left, following where Sasuke had gone.

"Haruno-san, please come with us." Neji spoke, slightly bowing. "We do not wish to harm you, we only need to take you somewhere safer."

"And where would that be?" she asked rather coldly. "In the dungeon..?"

"No," was the Hyuuga's reply. "Sasuke's room."

"Damn it!" Sasuke yelled and began to shoot the many targets set-up before him, hitting every dummy on the head and the heart, anywhere vital. He got pissed and settled for the highest level where the targets disappear and appear too quickly. Loading his guns, he pressed the "start" button and began shooting like crazy. Every target was shot and "killed".

"So that's your doing…"

He turned to the voice and saw his brother looking at the targets with an innocent and pitiful face. "Poor dummies, never had a chance to live longer." He grinned and walked closer to his brother who muttered something and turned back to shooting. "What do you want Itachi?"

"Nothing, just wondering…" he started and eyed the targets being shot.

"What?"

"On what you told me, when I asked you if you would do anything for Sakura."

"What about it?"

"Geez," Itachi sighed. "How dense can you get? I thought you'll even betray this Yakuza just for her but what the hell are you doing?"

Sasuke clutched the gun in his hands tightly and glared at Itachi. "Will you stop making it harder for me? I can't let that bastard father-of-ours kill you and the others, even if I had to see Sakura crying, I still had to carry on with the mission!"

"You showed your weakness Sasuke."

"…" he cursed and turned the other way.

Itachi continued to look at him calmly. "Perhaps considering your weakness to become your strength can help." He advised. "Dad knows how to handle you, to lure you into his trap, and you got caught on his web." He turned around to walk away. "But, even some can still mange to escape a well-planned and expertly done ambush." And he left his little brother to ponder on everything. "He's right," a smirk formed on his lips. "What better way then to surprise your enemy?" and he looked at a single target, aimed at its head and pulled the trigger.

"I will not be defeated by you twice."

They were waiting in Sasuke's room, looking sympathetically at the girl who had her head lowered. Naruto wanted to ay something but Shikamaru gave him a look and shook his head so the blonde just shut his mouth. Neji turned to look at his girlfriend who had a sad gaze to Sakura, clearly understanding that the girl wanted so much to comfort the Prime Minister's daughter.

Being the impatient one, Naruto furrowed his eyebrows and opened his mouth to speak when the door to Sasuke's room opened and in came none other than the owner of the room himself, still having his usual stoic face yet his friends saw something different, his eyes weren't empty but had emotions in them, a fiery glow in his onyx eyes and the look of determination. He turned to each and everyone of them, giving a gesture for them to leave and so they did, walking out of the door.

"Sakura," he said once the door had closed, leaving only the two alone. "It's not what you think." He began and walked closer to her, reaching out to pull her into a hug and to wipe away her tears, however, he stopped and was startled when she looked up and glared. At that time, his father was passing by and he opened Sasuke's room door slightly, stopping himself from entering after he saw the look on the girl's face.

"You tricked me! You lied to me!" she yelled at him, bawling her fist and pounded on his chest but found that she couldn't really hurt him and she started to cry, grasping on his shirt as she slowly fell to her knees. "You… lied…" she whispered, sobbing. Sasuke didn't do anything but just stare at her. He may be stoic on the outside, but inside, he was crying, deep down, his heart was shattered when he saw how she looked and how she was feeling. "I hate you but… I still… love you…" and altogether, he lost control and pulled her into a tight hug, right in front of his father.

Fugaku was shocked at Sakura's words. "Unbelievable," he thought. "Even if she doesn't really know that Sasuke did this unwillingly, she still… loves him..?" what his ears picked up next almost made him feel defeated.

"To hell with this Yakuza…" Sasuke whispered. "To hell with the rules…" he added, embracing the girl tighter than before "All I care right now is you, I promise, I won't let anyone hurt you, not even me, ever again…"

"Even though your love for each other is strong, I will still not allow this." And Fugaku left, heading back to his office.

"A plan..?"

Sasuke gave a nod as he locked his room door and took off his black trench coat, placing it on a chair inside the room. "I'm getting you out of here." Sakura thought for a while before looking up at him. "Then, why did you bring me here?"

"I needed to let my dad think that I'll still carry on with the mission, otherwise, it will be my brother's life, as well as my friends', on the line."

"I see, but how?"

"Shikamaru has it all figured out, we leave when the clock strikes at midnight." He answered, removing his shirt and sighing. "Naruto will be the distraction as always, he volunteered for the part, Neji and Itachi will be our back-up and Shikamaru will be disabling alarms and bombs planted near the escape area, he'll also instruct us where there are lesser guards through his high tech-ed computer."

"It's cliché," she muttered. Sasuke smirked and bent over her, making her back away a bit and fall on the bed on her back. "Yeah, but my dad knows I'm not the 'typical' type of guy, it's bound to work." He whispered and lowered his head to her, kissing her lips gently. "I promised you didn't I, that no matter what, I'll find a way."

"I know." She murmured and closed her eyes when he captured her lips again. "Sasuke… won't your father do something if you help me get out of here…?"

"I don't give a damn." He answered and kissed her neck.

"But-"

"Sakura." He said and looked at her as she looked back. "Just shut up." He smirked and kissed her forehead. "Just leave it to me."

She can't say that she was scared, afraid to get hurt again, but after what he just said earlier, Sakura can't help but feel weak under his gaze and in his arms yet again. She was falling in love with him over and over. "Mom's right, love does hurt but…" she smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer as she tilted her head to the side a bit. "I feel safe at the same time, happy."

Sasuke reached for her tie and slowly removed it as they continued with their lip lock. Unfortunately, just when they were getting so into it, a knock disrupted them and as expected from our bishounen here, he cursed and got up with an irritated expression while our little bishoujo gave a very cute pout. "Mou, can't it wait?"

The Uchiha sweat dropped and gave a smirk and Sakura blushed. She always does whenever he smirked. There was just something about it that makes him irresistible to her eyes. "I thought I told you, patience."

"Patience, yeah right, as if you have a lot…" Sakura muttered to herself and sat up straight as her boyfriend opened the door. "Seriously, does he want other people to know what we were doing? He should've put on a shirt first…" she stared at his back. "Not that I'm complaining." And a grin was plastered on her face.

"What is it Naruto?"

The blonde blinked and stared at Sasuke. "Am I… interrupting something..?" he asked, gesturing at his topless figure. The raven haired teen just rolled his eyes. "Get to the point dead-last." He was getting impatient. Perhaps it wasn't a good idea to tell Sakura to be patient.

"Alright, well, Shikamaru said that everything's going great, so, if you're ready; load up some guns and Sakura's home free!"

"Good." Sasuke answered and was about to close the door when Naruto's hand stopped him. A grin was on the blonde's face and Sasuke had a bad feeling about it. "You better have some birth control pills or condoms there."

Wrong move Naruto…

His eyes turned red, which was odd because he swore not to use the specialty of his clan unless necessary. But to him, scaring the blonde or killing him was. Naruto shuddered, the last time he saw those blood-red sharingan eyes was when they were only twelve and Sasuke had nearly killed the older guy who was an elite member in just a few seconds. "Um… h-hey… it was a… uh… bye!" and Naruto, suddenly gaining great speed, ran so quickly away.

"Heh, works everytime…" and Sasuke entered his room and once again locked the door to commence whatever they were doing. "What's with that grin on your face?" he asked, raising a brow and Sakura blinked and shook her head. "What grin?" A smirk answered her as he neared the girl. "You like what you see?" he teased and flicked her ear, earning another shudder from her. "Don't deny it, I know you do." And before she could protest, she was once again pinned on the bed with his lips over hers, kissing it gently yet intensely.

As soon as midnight came, Shikamaru gave each member of Sharingan a communicator that can be attached as an ear/mouth piece. "Alright, I'll only say this once so you better listen up; I managed to bribe some of the guards to dim the lights so you have better chance of escaping. In case some spot you, that's where Naruto comes in and do something, anything, just as long as it distracts them from getting to you," he turned to Neji and Itachi. "You two have important roles here, if possible, only one of you can leave the group to handle the pursuing guards, if not, just make sure you quickly take care of them and run after Sasuke and Haruno." The lazy genius then turned to Sasuke and Sakura. "You two, it is a must that both of you stay together until Haruno is back at her home, whatever happens, don't separate unless necessary, if ever the guards do get to you, don't part ways, it'll make the plan a lot harder to accomplish."

"Got it." They answered and took their guns, making sure that the firearms were loaded. They checked their kunai cases and shuriken, as well as the katana that they carried on the side of the waist. "Alright, let the escaping begin!" and Shikamaru pressed a key on his keyboard as the alarms and security devices were disabled and some lights dimmed or were temporarily shut. "Go, go, go!" he ordered and they were on the move, stepping out of the building and out into the dark night.

Naruto and Neji went ahead to be on the look-out for any of the guards roaming around. Sakura followed with Sasuke beside her and behind them was Itachi, watching their backs. "So far so good, let's just hurry and-"

"Who's there?" a guard's voice demanded. "Show yourself!"

"You and your loud whispers Naruto…" Neji muttered and pushed the blonde. "Distract, now!"

Naruto gave a glare to the Hyuuga and stepped out from the bushes with a goofy grin. "Sorry about that, I tripped on something and made a few cursed words. Have you seen a squirrel with a unique tail? What makes it unique is that the tip of its tail is white and it's a really rare kind which is why few people see it but once they show it in public, they make great big bucks!"

The four people who were with Naruto, as well as Shikamaru, who heard everything through the communicator, sweat dropped and had their jaws hanging from the lame story Naruto came up with but it did sound convincing since the guard's eyes beamed at the mentioned "money" between the lines.

"Let's move it!" Sasuke hissed, recovering from the dumbstruck state they were in earlier. What seemed like hours turned to seconds as they neared the wired fence circling the HQ of their Yakuza. Itachi double checked if it still had the electrocution surrounding it and after confirming that is was disabled, he motioned Neji to go first. As soon as the Hyuuga was about to crawl through the slightly big hole of the fence, they heard shouts and footsteps of the guards. "Shit." Itachi cursed and took out his katana. "Neji, get Sasuke and Sakura out of here, I'll handle these guys."

"But there are thirty of them, I don't think even you, one of the top members of Sharingan, can handle all of them without getting injuries." Neji countered and got up, unsheathing his sword as well. "I'm helping; Sasuke should be able to handle it by the time they reach out of the Sharingan compounds."

"No, you-"

"It's alright bro, Neji's right, you'll need help against these guys, I can handle it from here."

Itachi hesitated for a bit before sighing and agreeing to them. "Alright, Sakura, do me a favor and take care of my little brother for me." He gave a small smile to her after she gave a nod and he and Neji took off to take care of the guards. "Sakura, come on," Sasuke called out, urging her to crawl out of the vicinity. She nodded and dropped to her knees and hands, bending lower to creep underneath the fence. Sasuke followed suit after she has gotten out of the HQ compound and they both quickly ran off to the direction of the Haruno mansion.

"How… far… is the… distance… any…way..?" Sakura asked between pants as they both continued running. Sasuke sighed and carried her, bridal style, hearing a yelp from her. He smirked when she did so. "Alright princess, I'll carry you back." He said, not seeming to be tired from running and with an added load. "I was only asking…" she muttered. "About six to seven kilometers, maybe even more. By foot, we'll be reaching there by daybreak, if we walk, a little later, if we used my bike or a car, earlier, but then, it would be too hard to escape if we did."

"I see…" she said, her voice trailing off as she suppressed a yawn but Sasuke slowed down and soon stopped, staring at her with a grin. "Sleepy?"

"N-no…" she said and stifled a yawn. "Liar," he muttered and put her down then bent down with his back facing her, climb on so that you'll be able to sleep." Sakura shook her head and denied that she was sleepy but she soon yawned, failing to stop it. He smirked and didn't get up until she sighed and got on his back, resting her head on him as he got up and started walking. "It's alright, I'll protect you." He whispered before she drifted off, her eyelids slowly closing as she wandered on to dreamland.

He felt her breathing on his neck turn into a slow and even pace and he smiled to himself, wishing that their journey back to the mansion would be longer, he knew that when he reaches the Haruno estate, he won't be able to stay for long, meaning it too, would be the last time Sasuke will be seeing Sakura. Just at the thought of it, his smiled turned upside down as a sad look replaced his calm and content one. He would've pretended and continued living on as her bodyguard/boyfriend and keep his secret of being a part of Sharingan from them but, his friends' lives were at stake, and so was his brother's. "Maybe a happy life isn't meant for me… I've killed and betrayed so many that I don't deserve it…" he thought raising his head to look at the semi-dark sky and recalling memories of him and the girl on his back.

"I'm going to miss you feeding me lunch you made yourself." He said to her in his mind, glancing at the girl from time to time. "Most of all, I'll miss seeing you and loving you…" a small smile tugged on his lips as he watched her snuggle closer to him as if he were a pillow. Her grip on him tightened as she smiled contently at the comfort. "…Smells…nice…" she whispered in her sleep, burying her nose on the back of his neck, slightly tickling the teen that carried her. He suppressed a laugh so as not to disturb her as he continued making his way back to the mansion. "Yeah… I'm also going to miss your strawberry scent…"

He stopped in his tracks when his ears perked up and a feeling of being watched occurred to his senses. Sasuke turned his head slightly to the side but found nothing, although, in the back of his head, he was sure that there was someone watching them. "Crap, I guess I better hurry." He thought and started to jog which awoke the girl that was sleeping peacefully on his back.

"Wha-? Sasuke, why are you-"

"Someone's following us," he answered and put her down. "Look, only a few more and we'll be back at your home, whatever happens, stay close to me okay?" he said, looking at her with a serious expression at the same time, glancing at their surroundings. She nodded and he grabbed her hand, pulling her further down the empty road.

A little while later, they stopped upon seeing a group of men wearing black suits approaching them. Sakura squint her eyes and saw her dad, right in the middle, leading some of the agents. She felt for her phone inside her skirt's pocket and remembered that her dad had had a scientist implant a tracking device in it. "No wonder…" she thought as these men were approaching.

Ikichi had a glare on his face when his eyes landed on Sasuke. "Sakura, come here, now." As soon as he said this, Sakura turned to Sasuke slowly, suddenly feeling that something was wrong. "Sakura, go." He whispered but she didn't move and remained in her place. She was torn, she never even knew that once she escapes, she would part with him, the first guy she ever loved, and up until now, still loves. "What're you waiting for? Go before my dad arrives." He whispered and looked at her. "No…" she whispered, fighting the tears that were attempting to fall. "I…I can't!" she yelled, clenching her fists and not being able to hold her tears.

"Sakura, what is the meaning of this? Don't you know that he will kill you?" Ikichi stated, taking a step forward. Sakura shook her head and took a step back. "He won't dad, he won't, he helped me escape, he took me there to save his friend's and brother's life! He heled me escape to prevent their gang from gaining their goal! To prevent them from luring you to them and killing you!" she yelled. Ikichi gave a stern look. "Sakura, stop talking nonsense and come here at once!"

She shook her head stubbornly and looked up at him with tear-stained eyes. Sasuke cringed at the sight; he had a soft spot when it came to people who cried, most particularly if it was Sakura. "I love him dad…" she whispered but it was clearly heard by the prime minister and his agents who were surprised at her sudden confession. Sasuke took a step forward to Sakura and took her hand, giving a sad smile when she turned to look at him. "Sakura, you have to go, you can't stay with me, it won't do you any good, you'll just be throwing away your future if you stay with me," he said and wiped away her tears. "You have to go, now, I can sense my dad coming…"

Again, she refused and just threw herself at him, gripping tightly on his all-black attire. "No, I don't want to, come with us Sasuke, you'll have a better life… you wouldn't have to kill… to betray… to hate…" she pleaded but he shook his head. "We have different lives Sakura, and my life is being a part of a deadly gang, just go with your dad, get away from here, keep away from…me…" he said the last part so soft that it was almost above a whisper. She was about to say something again when Fugaku's voice interrupted and a click of a gun was heard. All heads turned to the Sharingan to see their guns aiming at Sakura.

"Sasuke, get over here, now!"

The said teen only gave a glare and hid Sakura behind him, taking her place as the target of the firearms. Fugaku gave a serious and stern look. "I said, come here!" but his son remained in his place. "Come here now so I can kill that girl and that prime minister."

"Over my dead body!" he yelled at his father, onyx orbs turning to blood red ones.

"Why you-" he wasn't able to finish his sentence as a smoke bomb was thrown at the two teens, blinding everyone's sight. Sakura quickly grabbed onto Sasuke's arm as he pulled her closer, keeping his senses alert. "Shit, Oto…" he thought and heard a clashing of kunai and the whirling of a shuriken. Next thing he knew, two Oto members had knocked him out along with Sakura as he felt his body being carried away, his half-closed eyes noticed that he and Sakura were being thrown inside a truck in a not so pleasant way that sleep slowly overtook him.

"Get up." A low voice ordered and Sasuke stirred, slowly opening his eyes only to shut them again as the bright white light blinded his sight. "Get up." The voice repeated and he blinked away the brightness, slowly getting up to his feet, feeling both his hands tied behind his back by chains. He glanced to his right to see where all of his weapons were. "Sakura…" he suddenly thought and that alone woke him up completely, he looked around the room but found no sign of the pink-haired girl. His eyes glared at the man before him. "Where is she?" he demanded for an answer but the man before him just smirked and pulled him up by his shirt's round collar. "Don't worry; you'll see your little girlfriend soon."

As if on cue, the door opened and in came another man, pushing Sakura inside forcefully. Judging by her looks, she was probably beaten up since there were many bruises on her body and fear was evident in her eyes. "Bastard, what did you do to her?" he yelled at the man who pushed the girl inside. He only gave a smirk to Sasuke and licked his lips. The Uchiha's eyes widened as he was suddenly thrown to the floor. "Shit, you didn't..!"

"Well, almost, her body was tempting but she kicked me in between my legs so I decided to punish her by giving a good beating to her. Luckily for her though, my master stopped me, but… he continued for me."

"Asshole!" Sasuke yelled and charged at the man only to be pulled back by the other. "Don't worry, my master is coming." And as if on cue, the head of Oto did come and Sasuke had a bit of fear, but mostly anger, inside of him. His eyes turned red at the sight of the sick bastard approaching, an evil sneer on his face, his eyes looking like that of a snake's and his hair long and creepy. All in all, he looked like a man back from the dead.

"Uchiha Sasuke…" his slithering voice said, seeing the teen getting up and glaring at him.

"Orochimaru…" he said back icily. "What did you do to her..?" he asked dangerously. Orochimaru snickered and approached the boy closer. Sasuke caught how Sakura suddenly shook and backed away from the snake-like man when he approached the Uchiha. "Like what you do to her Sasuke, I just gave her marks." His eyes dilated in anger and without warning, kicked the snake man's gut and was about to charge at him again when two of Oro's subordinates stopped him.

"You really should control your anger more, Sasuke." Orochimaru laughed and approached him. "She refused my offer, I asked her to become mine but she answered me with a kick on the groin, I simply made her scream, and now, I am offering you something else, join me, and you'll never have to follow your dad's orders ever again."

A spat on his face was Sasuke's answer and it only aggravated Orochimaru. "I am simply being nice to you and this is the thanks and answer I get?"

"You're lower than my dad you bastard, you're full of shit."

Orochimaru did not let anyone get away when he was disrespected, so he gave a sinister smile to the teen and turned to Sakura, seeing how she quickly hugged herself and kept away from him. "Would you like to know how loud your girl can scream Sasuke?"

"You sick bastard!" Sasuke cursed and tried to tackle the snake but he couldn't, not with two men having a vicious grip on him. Orochimaru advanced to the girl and grabbed her arm, pulling her up and bringing her closer to his face. "Scream, my dear blossom, scream…" he hissed and bit onto her neck, sucking on her skin and the little amount of blood flowing from the small bite. Sakura suppressed her shriek but couldn't when Orochimaru bit harder, she cried out and tried to struggle free but his grip on her was too tight. "S-stop it! Please, stop it!" she yelled pleadingly as tears formed in her eyes. Sasuke couldn't control himself anywhere, he was yearning for bloodshed, he was craving for Orochimaru's head, he wanted everyone who touched his Sakura dead, murdered slowly and painfully. "Damn you!" and he broke free from the men, pulling on the chains that bound his hands, not caring if his wrists started to bleed from the constrict of the semi-rusty iron. He kept tugging and pulling until it snapped, he was finally free from it, and based from any lessons in fighting, man's deadliest weapon is his own bare hands, especially if it had top speed.

"Die you fucking bastards." He said in a low and dangerous tone with his eyes in the dangerous color of red with a murderous glint in them as he, in the blink of an eye, grabbed one of the two men's neck and choked him, within seconds, he was dead. He turned to the other and punched him on the nose, quickly rushing behind the guy, he twisted his neck, making it turn a full 180 degrees. His next murderous intent was on Orochimaru who held onto a crying Sakura as if he owned her, and that only irritated and aroused Sasuke's anger.

"Orochimaru, you will die."

And he charged head on at the man. Orochimaru knew this was coming so he took out a knife and held it up near Sakura's throat, threatening to slit it if Sasuke took another step closer. "Rule number 5 of a Yakuza, never let your emotions get the best of you." He said and before Sasuke knew it, he was behind the Uchiha and his hand knocked the back of the teen's head. The last thing he saw was Sakura's eyes looking at him worriedly, the last thing he heard was her voice, calling out to him, and the last thing he felt was her arms, catching his falling body, the last thing he knew, he whispered to her an "I love you."

To be continued…

Next on Konoha High: Chapter 7: Decisions

"We can't stay together, it's not allowed," he said, not meeting her eyes. "We won't be seeing each other anymore, from now on, let's just forget these things, you're leaving, I'm staying, I can't stay with you, I can't be with you, I am a killer and you are the daughter of a prime minister. You have no future with me, so it's better for us to part, for us to take separate paths, for us to stop loving each other." Sasuke gather all the courage in him and looked at Sakura. "I can't love you anymore, goodbye forever, Sakura."

A/N: Okay… last chapter is coming up after a week or two! I apologize for not being able to update earlier. I was really busy.
