/For those of you who were confused in the last part of the last chapter, it will be explained in this one /

Sasuke felt Sae's chilling arms embrace him tightly as though to squeeze out the last of the life he had left in him. While Sakura screamed at the woman to let Sasuke go, Kakashi turned and looked at Naruto; confused about why they had been able to see the past event so clearly. Usually, a ghost's spirit power would not be able to draw out such memories to show. 'Perhaps his fox chakra…wait, that would have meant that Naruto pulled off a genjutsu; and illusionary move.'(1) He realized, turning to look at Sae whose eyes were fixed on the fading pupils of Sasuke, draining almost all of the boy's life force. Naruto smirked gleefully as he looked at his former sensei and pointed to a tapestry not to far away from the Jounin. A strong burst of wind made the rug fly off the wall, revealing a door from behind it. "Leave…now!" The blond growled, taking a step towards him, 'That door will lead you and the girl out of here. I have no use for you and I don't want to engage in pointless killing at the moment. Go now or I'll let the spirits find you and devour your souls."

"Do you know what your even saying Naruto?" Kakashi asked harshly, torn between trying to talk sense into the boy and saving a near-death Sasuke.

Sae stopped as Sasuke's eyes closed, his soul slipping between his fingers; she wasn't to kill him, not yet anyways.

Naruto looked over at the tormented soul before nodding to her silently. With both Sakura and Kakashi watching the scene with pure horror, she gently placed the raven in Naruto's arms. "Sasuke-kun….mine…" The blonde whispered down to his prey that laid motionless, barely conscious at all.

Sasuke could feel Naruto's aura prickling his skin as the blond started to carry him out of the shrine and down the steps with perfect ease. Around him, the ghostly priests bowed their heads in respect. His head shot up when he heard a cry of pain, more then familiar to his ears. "Sak-kura…" He whispered, struggling to lift his head to see beyond the blond's shoulder.

"Hush now Sasuke. They chose their fate. I gave them a way out and they chose death." Naruto hissed inhumanly, a evil smirk plastered on his face as he looked back at Sae whom stood beside him.

"The ritual will finally be completed." She whispered, smiling at Naruto as though he were angel sent.

It disgusted Sasuke to no end and also made him find a little bit of strength stored away in his own body. Clutching the shoulder's of Naruto; the raven lifted his head so he could look at the blonde's crimson eyes. Trembling, the boy pressed his lips against the soft tan one's in front of him; closing his eyes as he prayed for a miracle. Even if he was to die, he wanted to end it all with Naruto knowing how much he truly loved him.

Naruto's eyes widened when Sasuke had moved in his arms, and went twice their size again as he felt the boy's tender kiss gracing his lips. His head swam for what seemed like miles as he tried to understand what was going on. Finally, after a few moments, the blonde began to kiss him back, his heart leaping at the moment that he and Sasuke were finally sharing. They stayed like that for a few minutes, though to the two new lovers, it felt like a thousand years had passed them by. Naruto's crimson eyes faded away to their normal sparkling crystal blue, causing Sae to shriek with horror. Her bind on the fox boy had been broken. Cursing, she began to put her hands together and speak in her foreign tongue, causing both of the boy's heads to whirl around. Sasuke could only scream Naruto's name as she rushed towards him, her spirit going into his body. 'W-what the hell is she doing to him!' he panicked, suddenly being dropped from his arms and picked up by the arms. Two villagers had jerked him roughly to his feet to watch as Naruto's eyes changed yet again to a deep dark black. "It's time for us to go dear Sasuke." He whispered before caressing the boy's cheek, Sasuke instinctively moving into the cupped hand on his face.

His eyes widened as he felt a sharp pain in his stomach, his world going black as felt his body go limp.

Sae smirked from inside the boy's body as they walked through the mansion. Through a set of doors that the trio had missed, down a long hallway, and then into a underground cavern. Sasuke felt his world spin as he opened his eyes, and he blinked almost twenty times when his view came into focus. Ahead of him, Naruto stood by the edge of a huge stone that stood at the edge of a dark black pit, candles lining the way. Walking carefully over to the blonde, Sasuke glanced at the many priests that were also lined on either side of him and Naruto. 'The ritual…'

"Naruto…listen…lets go home…together…" Sasuke said, looking at the boy uncertainly.

"No….Sasuke….we can't be together forever…but with this.." Naruto whispered, grabbing the boy's hands and pulling Sasuke on top of him as he laid on the stone, gazing at him with glassy eyes, "We can become one…let me be your butterfly…" He whimpered, now forcing the raven's hands on his neck.

Sasuke began to apply force, his eyes widening as he did this unconsciously. 'No…Naruto…Naruto…stop….' his mind whispered as slowly, the boy's eyes began to roll back.

"NO!" Sasuke screamed, forcing himself off the blonde whom gasped for breath now, slowly getting up.

Sasuke landed on his backside and slowly began to back up, shaking his head from side to side. "No…I won't…I can't…Naruto!" He screamed, suddenly watching as the boy got up and turned towards the pit in front of him, walking towards it.

Tears overflowed the boys eyes as he whispered along with Sae's voice. "Until then…I'll be waiting…"

Sasuke ran towards his life line, grabbing Naruto by the wrist and turning him around to be engulfed in his embrace. "I know! I know damn it!" He cried, burying his head into Naruto's shoulder, "We can't be together forever….I know that! But that doesn't mean we shouldn't use the time we have together right? Is that what you want? To throw all of that away?"

Naruto slumped into Sasuke's arms as Sae was forced to retreat, the darkness in the blonde's heart no longer able to hold her. The spirit watched sadly as Naruto hugged the raven tighter, whispering his answer of 'no' and 'I love you'. For some reason or another, she found peace when she saw this display. No matter what she had done to the two of them, they had never given up on each other. They never let go of each other's hand in spirit. Looking back at the pit, Sae walked over and put her foot over the edge. As if on cue, Yae's spirit suddenly busted out of Sasuke's body, running to her sister. Sasuke gasped, and fell backward with Naruto there to catch him. 'So, that time….when I thought you had left, you had gone inside me as well did you?' Sasuke smirked looking over as the sisters hugged and descended into the pit, a small voice whispering; "Thank you…"

Sasuke stumbled as he and Naruto made their way back up the hill, sunlight finally settling over the village. "It's broken…finally…" Naruto whispered, smiling at Sasuke who merely nodded. Still walking towards the gate, which had been uncovered now and showed a path to the outside of the forest, both of the boy's eyes glistened when they saw two figure standing at the top of the hill. Sakura and Kakashi grinned down at the boy's, running to hug them when they got close. "Shall we call it a day then team?" Kakashi asked, having the trio of the genin nod.

"Yeah, let's go home…right dobe?" Sasuke asked, smirking.

"Your such an ass.." Naruto whispered in the boys ear before kissing him on the cheek.

Though it was just a butterfly kiss.

/(1)-Basically, Sae used Naruto to show what happened to her in an illusion instead of a vision. That is the ending guys. Hope you liked it./
