Chapter 9 Last Goodbye
Everyone stood before the black coffin waiting for the burial to start; there was a slight murmur amongst everyone.
"I ask you all to be quiet" Sarutobi said.
"There are many who desired to become a true hokage ninja, Naruto Uzumaki was one of them" Sarutobi said.
"Today we honor Naruto with the title of a true ninja, he showed us all that it doesn't matter who you are what you are, as long as you have determination" Kakashi said.
Everyone bowed in honor of him, Sasuke stepped up next
"I always thought Naruto was a fool compared to me, when he became part of our team I knew it wouldn't be easy to do, but I learned that deep within Naruto lay a powerful soul. The nine-tailed demon, I never understood how such a man as Naruto could posses such power. And because of that he was ridiculed and now his courage will live within us all." Sasuke said.
Sakura stood behind him, she looked at him she was scared but Sasuke nudged her to go.
"I remember the day we were at the bridge, Naruto refused to give up he always said he could do anything and now he's gone. He protected us from Kentashi Omirou and fate repays him by letting him die! How is that fair? He protected all of us, and because of him, Kakashi, Sasuke and I are alive so in his honor we will look up to his statue when we think were down but remember what he taught us" Sakura said.
"Thank you all, and be proud of Naruto for what he did" Sarutobi said.
Two days later…Sakura sat beside Naruto's grave as she began to cry, "You loved me Naruto, you always have I just wish I could have told you that…I loved you too, you were always there for me" Sakura said. She covered her face with her hands, she felt a hand on her shoulder but nobody was behind her. She stood up and looked at his statue, she smiled as she read the title "Naruto Uzumaki, a true Hokage ninja that will live in all of us forever"
Even then Sakura felt like he was right there beside her, just like he had always been no matter what happened.
