"Hana Uchiha has left the village without permission."
"Huh?!" Kakashi and Takahashi-sensi exclaimed in unison.
Tsunade sighed deeply, bringing her hands up under her chin, her expression that of anger.
"Why did she leave…?" Nari questioned sadly, tears welling in her eyes. Sumi gently patted her back.
"I assume she's left to find Sasuke on her own. This is very dangerous, and I wish for you to find her at once and bring her back here to me!"
"Yes, ma'am!" everyone nodded.

Why Hana left the village on her own was beyond them, but to Hana, it made perfect sense. She was determined to find her brother by any means necessary and bring him back. In fact, she was convinced that she was the one who deserved to find Sasuke. Not Sakura – not Naruto. He was her brother, after all.
When she went to speak with Tsunade, she ended up getting emotional and Tsunade demanded she stay back. That the mission was too important, that she was a liability.
"Liability my ass," Hana grumbled to herself as she had packed some food for her trip.

"I'll do just fine on my own."
She had gotten into a couple of brawls with some bandits – but nothing serious had happened. At least, not yet. However, after one particular encounter with three bandits, the youngest Uchiha found herself with a few cuts to the face, upper torso and muddy clothing. She was otherwise unharmed, but she decided to take a dip in a nearby lake. She honestly had no idea how long she had been travelling for (two days, it would turn out) and no one from the leaf had managed to catch her. It had crossed her mind that perhaps they didn't care enough to come after her – but then it dawned on her that she had people who loved her. She was aware she was hurting those people, but in that moment, she didn't care.

"Sasuke…" she sighed, removing her shirt, "I will find you."
Shimmying out of her skirt, she remained in her underwear and slowly, but surely, walked into the lake. The water was freezing, and goosebumps immediately formed on her entire body. She didn't care, though. She needed a wash after two days of walking and fighting bandits. As she sat in the water, perched up between two rocks, she closed her eyes, almost drifting off. She had barely slept either. It was torture, but the pain and tiredness was worth it to see Sasuke's face again.

She emitted a gentle hum as Sasuke's face came into her mind. She only knew what he had looked like before, but she wondered what he looked like now. How strong he was as a ninja. How handsome. She smiled. Perhaps he looked a little bit like Itachi, or maybe he had his own look about him. She was ever so curious. Hearing a twig snap behind her somewhere in the forest, her eyes opened quickly. She glanced around but could see nothing, no one was there, or at least they weren't in sight. She looked over at her clothes, on the bank. Her sword was too far away. If someone attacked her now, she was vulnerable. She decided to disguise her actions – and secretly swim over to her sword.

"Well, that's enough lazing about," she said to herself, loud enough for anyone around to hear, "guess I'll go for a light swim."
She broke into a swim, slowly swimming in the direction of the shore. Another twig snapped – then another – then another. Hana's heart was pounding in her chest. She was so close to the shore – she could almost feel the dirt. Yet, she was too far to grab her sword. Hearing a swishing sound, the Uchiha gasped when she spotted a shuriken flying in her direction. Thankfully, she ducked under the water in time, completely immersed in the water.

Finally reaching the shore, she clambered up the dirt and grabbed her sword, managing to deflect another shuriken.
"Come out and face me!" she yelled loudly, looking in the direction the shuriken had come from. A silence followed.
"Fuck…where are they?" she sighed, her heartbeat quickening even more as she tried to figure out their next move.
"Oh, it's you" a voice came from behind the trees, "I didn't expect to see you here."

Hana froze up, her legs trembling. That voice…there was no way.
A figure emerged from behind the trees. Yes, there was no mistaking it. That hair, those eyes – that voice.
"S-Sasuke…" she whispered, her eyes welling up with tears. She fell to her knees, dropping her sword. Hands gripping the dirt, she knelt there, looking stupid in her underwear and crying. This wasn't how it was supposed to go.

Within seconds, Sasuke stood before her. He was fast, but he had gotten faster. A sword was placed on his back, it looked very similar to hers. She felt so happy, knowing they were connected enough to have the same weapon. Yet, she couldn't move a muscle. She was a paralysed, crying mess.
Kneeling before her, Sasuke took a hold of her face, lifting it to look at him. Their eyes met and she felt that spark – the very same one.

Taking him in, she embraced all that he had become. She had been right – he was handsome. He didn't particularly look like Itachi, and he had his own look. The same hairstyle as when he left the village, but his hair was much thicker. He was much taller, too. His eyes were soft as he looked at her, but hard as well. All that hate for Itachi had completely overtaken him. She could tell. He wasn't the same boy she knew; he was a man now – and he was different. Yet, that spark was the same. It hadn't gone away. She was so relieved.

Little did she know, he was taking her in as well. Not that his face gave it away, but he was thinking about how beautiful she had become. Her body was that of a woman now, her face shaped like their mothers had been, with a perfectly, sharp jawline. Her eyes were even more gentle than before, but she had a warriors look about her. She was a ninja worthy of the title, and he could tell that without knowing.

"D-don't stare at me," Hana stuttered, suddenly becoming very aware that she was in her underwear, "I'm naked."
"You're not naked" was his quiet response.
"Sasuke, it's been so long…" she cried, "please don't run away."
"I won't run away, as long as you're alone. Why are you here, anyway?"
"Everyone's coming looking for you but…I came ahead. I couldn't wait any longer. I had to find you, because I deserve to be the one to bring you home. To me."

Sasuke's eyes widened.
"I'm not coming home, Hana."
"Why not?!" she exclaimed, "you've left me and the others waiting long enough."

She stared at him sternly, but he didn't reply. Instead, he helped her stand. He removed his cloak, wrapping it around her frame. She gripped onto it. It smelt just like him.
"Hana. I have a mission to fulfil," he explained, "only then can we be together."
"What?"
"Unless…you'd come with me. However, I know you're not going to do that. Not in a million years will you leave your comrades behind, right?"
"….I would drop it all for you."

"Don't be stupid" he said angrily, turning his back on her, "tell the others not to bother coming to find me. Go home, Hana."
"I-I'm not going home until I get what I came here for!" she yelled.
"And what's that?"
"You!"
"Hana…"
"It's been so long, Sasuke. The pain is so unbearable I've wanted to die so many times. Without you, my life is empty. I-I know you'll never love me the way I love you, and I know it's gross."
He sighed. Hana's bottom lip wobbled. Please, she thought, please tell me you love me, at least.

"How are Sakura and Naruto, anyway?"
"…. They're fine" she replied stiffly.
Sasuke turned to face her once again, looking her up and down.
"You've grown up so much. It's almost like you're a completely different person, but you're still immature."
"Of course I am," she frowned, "I'm still a teenager. Seventeen."

He made a "hmm" sound, looking in the direction of the forest, "I have to go."
"Don't- please, don't."
He paused, feeling her take his hand and holding onto it for dear life, "take me with you."
"You don't belong with Orochimaru, and despite what you think… you don't belong with me, either."
"One night is all I ask for, if that's what you really think."
"Hana!" he gasped, surprise completely overtaking his features.

"There's no one else I want like I want you," she said sadly, taking a few more steps towards him.
"Not even Choji?" he blinked, not really fully understanding what she was asking for, but he had a hunch.
"No, not even Choji. Not even a little bit."
Caressing her cheek with his free hand, Sasuke looked deeply into her eyes.
"Come with me."
She felt him tug on her hand, and she allowed him to drag her to a nearby camp he had set up. She didn't ask why he was there, she assumed it was a mission for Orochimaru.

He stood awkwardly by the tent, then pointed to it, "um…"
"Yes" she nodded, dipping her head into the tent, and pulling him with her. She lay down, watching him zip up the tent and then stare at the fabric.
"Hana…do you really think we should be doing something like this?"
"Mhm. I don't see why not" she said quietly.
Sasuke nodded, laying down beside her and gently stroking her stomach, which was on show. She shivered under his touch, pulling him closer and planting a kiss on his lips. Sasuke sighed happily into the kiss, but then pulled away quickly.
"Hana…it's wrong but, I AM in love with you too."
"I know, idiot" she smiled, sitting up and brushing the cloak off her shoulders.

He watched her unclip her bra, his eyes widening at the size of her bare breasts. He just wanted to suck on them so badly. He was inexperienced in sex – (he was a total virgin) but he had SOME idea of how to do it, and he wanted to do THAT. Hana was a virgin, too, but when it came to Sasuke, she wanted him so badly she couldn't hold back. That wasn't a possibility. She was suddenly filled with this confidence that she had never felt before.

"Do what you want to me tonight, Sasuke," she told him, "I don't mind, not one bit."
"I…want to take you" he told her, unbuttoning his shirt, "you belong to me."
"That's right," she whispered, hands stroking his now bare chest, "and you belong to me."
"Yes."
He leaned his head down, capturing one of her breasts in his mouth. Hana shuffled closer, biting down on her bottom lip. His tongue flickered over her swollen nipple a few times, while the other was being gently pinched by his fingers. Hana moaned, getting off on watching him.

He pushed himself up onto his knees, forcing her to lay back down and positioning himself between her legs. He could feel her pussy growing wet, soaking his trousers at the thigh region.
"S-sasuke…" Hana moaned out, tangling her hands in his hair, "play with me."
He unlatched himself from her breast, sliding down her small frame and pulling down her soaking underwear. Hana helped him take them off by lifting her bottom half up off the floor. Opening her legs, he took two fingers and started to gently massage her clit. Hana bit her bottom lip again, watching him play with her. Inserting a finger from the other hand, she let out a small whimper as the pain shot through her.

"It's okay," he cooed, "I'll be gentle."
"I-I know."
He moved his finger slowly, and once she got semi-used to that, he added another – all the while massaging her pussy, which was overflowing with juices. She almost started to feel embarrassed as the pain and pleasure washed over her simultaneously. Sasuke was starting to get uncomfortable; she could tell. His cock was pressing against his pants, too restricted for his liking. He was squirming every few seconds, and emitting small, frustrated grunts.
"Take them off" she almost ordered, though she was too inexperienced to know how.

Sasuke obeyed her, though, for the first time in their lives listening to an order from her. Sliding his pants and boxers down, he revealed his thick cock – and to Hana's surprise, it was massive.
"Wow" she gasped, sitting up and taking a hold of it in one hand. Sasuke moaned, scooting closer to her so that she could get a better grip on it.
"I'm not so sure what to do with it," she admitted shyly.
He shook his head, "you don't have to suck it, it's your first time. I can just put it in, if you like."
"I would like that" she nodded.

"Lay down" he said softly, and she obliged. He took a hold of her hips, pulling her closer. Hana giggled, loving that sort of dominance he was showing. He was now in full control; it was all up to him. He slid between her legs, and she wrapped them around his waist. He kissed her lips softly, but with a tiny bit of force. He was turned on, as was she, so she understood the forcefulness.
"Are you ready?" he whispered against her lips, "because I am."
"I am" she nodded, feeling him immediately push the tip inside her. She grunted. It hurt, but she wanted this so badly.

He closed his eyes, kissing her roughly as the pleasure spread through his entire body. Hana wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back but allowing him dominance. He started to move inside her, holding himself up with his arms. She winced as he slowly but surely pushed his entire penis into her. They both gasped into the kiss, her out of pain – but him out of pleasure.
"H-Hana!" he moaned, "I won't last long, I'm sorry."
At least he was being honest.

"It's okay" she whispered, kissing his cheek, then his neck. He fucked her hard, earning grunts and moans from her against his skin. Perhaps had he gone a little slower, he could have lasted a bit longer. However, she didn't mind. With a few pumps, he collapsed on top of her, his body shaking from the pleasure of cumming. They were so lost in the moment – in making love for the first time – that they didn't realise he had cum inside of her. That never dawned on them, not even for a second. He panted, then rolled off her, covering his face with his hands.
"That was pathetic. I'm sorry."
"It wasn't," she said, cuddling up to his chest.
"You didn't even get to cum or anything."
"Sasuke," she giggled, "there's always next time we meet."

He chuckled.
"True."
Wrapping his arms around her, he held her close.
"I'm sorry things can't be different, Hana" he said softly, "someday, I promise you."
"I believe you, Sasuke" she said, snuggling closer to his warm chest, "and I love you so much."
"I love you too" he confessed, kissing the top of her head, "more than you know."
