Disclaimer: I no own it the Naruto!

Summary: Sasuke knew a girl once. She had short blonde hair and blue eyes. Why does Naruto remind him of her? Suddenly a new mission comes along and it's not what Team 7 expects...Especially Sasuke.

Sasuke lied on the grass in the sunlight. He closed his eyes and sighed.

"Good morning Uchiha-san!"

Sasuke opened his eyes to see the face of his friend, Natsu. She was as bright as the sun, with her big, blue eyes and super short blonde hair. She was wearing her favorite orange and yellow jumper that her mother made for her.

"Good morning Natsu-chan...and call me Sasuke."
She giggled, "No way, sir. I respect you a lot. So...Wanna play?"
He gave her a smile, "Sure."

--
"OI! SASUKE! Earth to Sasuke!"

Sasuke awoke from his daydream. They had been waiting for Kakashi again. He had remembered a little bit of his past, but it was soon just another blur.

"What do you want, you blockhead?" Sasuke rubbed his ear.
"I had asked you, how long has it been?"
"Huh? Since what?"
"Since we've been waiting."
"Hmm..." He looked towards the sky, "five hours."
"WHAT!"
"Do you have to be so loud?"
"WHY IS HE ALWAYS SO LATE!"

Naruto grabbed his head in frustration. Sakura started scolding him on how he should learn to be patient, although she was furious as well. Sasuke stared at the planks on the bridge and let out a sigh.

"Man, look at that sky..."
This caught Sasuke's attention.
"Isn't it cool Sakura-chan?"

Sasuke looked over at Naruto and Sakura. It was a very sunny morning and the sun shone brightly. It made the colors stand out. Especially Naruto's hair. Sasuke stared in disbelief. This caught Sakura's attention.

"Sasuke-kun? Is something wrong?"
Sasuke looked frightened.
"Sasuke?" Sakura was getting worried.
This caught Naruto's attention, "What's wrong with you?"

Sasuke looked away. That hair color had haunted him for the longest time. When he was young, he had a friend named Natsuko. Natsuko was a little girl who lived in the village as an orphan, but that part was all true. She was a water sprite whose parents were sealed away into ancient scrolls to protect the Wave country. She was left in Konoha all alone. Sasuke had found her by a lake, playing by herself.

They were good friends until the day her parents released themselves from the scrolls and took revenge on Konoha. She vanished before her parents were forever turned into stones. Sasuke never saw her again.

"Hey guys! You'll never guess that there was traffic on my way here!"
"LIAR!" Naruto and Sakura yelled in unison.
"Hey, Sakura," Naruto asked, "What's traffic?"
Sakura shrugged.
"Okay, okay. You guys have a mission today."
"ALRIGHT! Is it a good one? Do we get to fight?"
"Mmmm...maybe..."
"COOL!"
"We're going to the Wave country."
"Again?" Sakura asked.
"Yep. There's someone who needs medicine there and we have to deliver it."
"Who is this person?" Sasuke asked.
"Mmm... probably an old person or sick child, who's relatives are to busy or they're to sick to get it themselves."

So off they went on their amazing adventure to the Wave country! Traveling and talking and Naruto making himself look silly again! What more could you ask?

"Hey we're here!" Naruto announced.

It was a bright, yet rainy day. Their boat floated on and the village looked friendly and welcoming. They docked and descended on.

"So...where's this place again?" Sakura asked.
"It's supposed to be a house with a red roof and vines growing on it." Sasuke said.
"There it is!" Naruto pointed off to the right, and sure enough, there was a house with a red roof and vines. It was a slanted roof the dipped low to the ground and it had two stories. It looked like a European house.

"Wow..." exclaimed Sakura.
"Good eye, Naruto." Said Kakashi.
"Heheheh." Naruto adjusted his headband.

So they delivered the medicine to an old woman, who gave them the payment and some money for each of them. She had decided that because she had no children of her own and felt that it would be fitting to give them something for their trouble. So, the team went about town looking at what to get with their money.

"I wonder what the Ramen here tastes like." Exclaimed Naruto.
"You idiot, it's probably the same back home! I want to see what clothes they have." Said Sakura.
"What are you going to get Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asked.
"The latest Come Come Paradise. I've been looking for it everywhere." Replied Kakashi.
Naruto made an uncomfortable face.
"How about you Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked.
He just walked away.
Inner Sakura: "DARN IT!"

Sasuke walked around the market place, ignoring the people who were trying to sell him things. He was just about to get away until he heard a small voice.

"Please, sir, would you like to buy a flower?"
Sasuke turned around, almost shaking. His eyes met with pure, blue, large eyes. It was a girl, around his age, with blonde hair, dirty and beaten.
"Sir?" she said once more.
Sasuke almost felt terrible just by looking at her. He tried smiling and said, "Sure. I'll take three."
She smiled, causing Sasuke's hair to stand on end. She was not an ordinary girl.
She gave him three flowers, he gave her the money, and Sasuke left to return to the group.
'Something about her,' he thought, 'Is so familiar.'

To be continued!
Well? What do you think? I know...it's total crap, right? But any way, please tell me what you think! Over and out!
