Chapter 2: Meeting…
7 years ago…
A young ten year old Sasuke walked along the street with a nine year old Sakura. Sakura was dressed in a white summer dress with Sakura blossoms on it and some summer sandals. Sasuke wore a blue shirt with white shorts and white sneakers. It was a hot summer and they were bored out of their minds. "Sasuke let's do something!" whined a young Sakura. "Let's go to park" replied Sasuke in a small quiet voice. Sakura smiled happily and jumped up and down "YAY!" Startling Sasuke, before she grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the park. As they closed the park they saw four boys around their age in a circle, kicking something…better yet someone.
"That will teach you to mess with us you dumb kid!" one of the boys said. His only answer was a grunt.
"Yeah next time you mouth out to us we will show you no mercy!" said another.
"Seems like you're already doing that" said Sasuke. The boys turned around to look around. "Who said that!" screamed out a boy around the age of thirteen. He had brown wild hair, black eyes and was a bit tanned. He was a lot taller then Sasuke, scaring Sakura.
"I did…" he calmly said leaving Sakura's side and walked up to them standing only a few feet away from them. The boy growled at him "Mind your own business kid….this doesn't concern you" Sasuke said nothing and just stared at them, angering the boy more.
"Sasuke…don't…" Sakura called from behind him. She was staring frighten at the boy and at Sasuke.
The boy smirked "Yeah listen to your girl friend" Sasuke glared at him, the rest of the kids walked next to the other boy "Want us to take care of him Derrick?" One of them asked the brown haired one "Yeah…teach him a listen he'll never forget" With that the other boys ran towards Sasuke, one threw a punch at Sasuke's face making Sakura scream, but Sasuke only douche his punch before unleashing one of his own, which landed on the boys stomach leaving him out of breath, knocking him unconscious. The others took a step back before another one of them tried to attack Sasuke which only got him kicked below and left on the ground in pain. The other two ran at Sasuke together before one grabbed Sasuke's arm and then put him in a headlock while the other smirked and punched him in the stomach taking out the air in him. i 'Damn!' /i was the only thing running through Sasuke's mind at that moment. Sakura looked at him worriedly and shutting her eyes, trying not to see Sasuke get beat up. The "leader" of the guys, walked up to them "That's enough…I want a piece of him to" He smirked as the other boy stepped a side.
He looked at Sasuke's pained face before punching him in the ribs. Making Sasuke grunt in pain. Sasuke closed his eyes awaiting the punch that was to come but it never came. He opened his to see "Derrick" looking behind him staring at a blond hair boy with blue eyes. He was holding Derrick's fist "You shouldn't turn your back on your enemies…" he raised his own fist "you never know when they might…" he brought down his fist "strike back!" connecting it with Derrick's face. The punch sent Derrick flying towards Sasuke and the boy who held him. When the boy saw Derrick coming he let go of Sasuke, which Sasuke took advantage of and moved to his right as Derrick came flying past him and hit the other boy knocking both guy unconscious. Sasuke knelt on the floor, trying to regain his strength.
Sakura had watched fascinated as the blond boy saved Sasuke from the two bullies. She ran towards Sasuke, who at the moment was studying the blond and knelt next to him. "Sasuke are you okay?" Sasuke nodded not taking his eyes of the blond, that's when she too turned towards him. The blond was at the moment looking smugly at the fallen guys; he was shorter than both her and Sasuke. But still only a centimeter smaller than Sakura, he wore an orange Wind pants and a black T-Shirt. He wore a pair of green goggles around his forehead making his short hair go in every direction. Sakura was still looking at the blond with interest when Sasuke stood up. She blinked once before she too stood up, Sasuke dusted his shorts before turning to walk away. She looked at him and then at the blond before walking after Sasuke. They were only at the cornet of the park when they heard someone call after them.
"Hey! Wait up!" Sakura and Sasuke turned around to see the same blond running towards them. They stooped and waited till the blond reached them "Hey…I just wanted to thank you…for helping me out back there…I could have been able to handle them" he said looking at Sasuke. Sasuke didn't say anything at first "I had to step in, you weren't "handling" them as you say, well dobe" This got the blond irritated "I would have if you hadn't stepped in! And don't call me dobe! The name's Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki! Remember it!" with that the boy walked away from both of them. Sakura stared after him before smiling; she then started to walk again with Sasuke before they heard 'Naruto' called to them again. "Hey! What are both of your names!" She smiled again before calling out "Sakura Haruno!" She turned to Sasuke who didn't say anything at first, but slowly smirked "Sasuke…Sasuke Uchiha!" The blond returned the smirk before running off again.
After a few minutes Sasuke turned around and continued to walk towards the park, the smirk never leaving him. Sakura soon followed, the day continued without much action. Sasuke occasionally would smirk at odd times. As Sakura would think about the blond haired boy at times…unknown to her …Sasuke would too.
