"Were finally here…" tenten said tiredly, as they enter the shelter, the place doesn't offer the people much protection but it's the only place were they will not be in the crossfire, mostly children and women are here, some elderly are here too, they led all the children to their respective parents and all of them are thankfully alive, the deed is done but not all "I'm going back out to find shikamaru" choji said in a fixed voice, he began to walk out of the door before someone blocked him "I'm coming with you" the voice was ino she too is determined to go out to the chaotic streets of konoha once more, the two ninjas walked out of the building just to find a third presence "I'm coming too" it was the weapon specialist, they nodded in response, the three began to retrace their steps back to were they let shikamaru stay and fight…alone…
At the same time two genins are fighting for their lives "Gatsuuga!" kiba yelled as him and akamaru in henge form spun in ferocious speed directly towards their opponents, shino swung his whole right arm forward emphasizing his bugs to kill the muskets, crackles of fire and screams of agony filled the ears of both kiba and shino "We must move, we can't stay here" shino said in his stoic self, kiba is panting loudly his techniques took out a lot of him "Alright, akamaru come on let's go" kiba yelled for his long time companion, akamaru followed the two shinobis, they took a sharp right turn to find blood drenched bodies everywhere littering the streets then kiba suddenly remembered the event that happen after naruto's funeral,
Flash back
As kiba walks out of his friend's funeral he felt like bleach, akamaru could feel the pain of his master by whining, kiba aimlessly walks down the streets of the ever large konoha, and he ended up inside a park he suddenly perked up this is the place where he would always go to early in the mornings, he would walk here until he reach the bench under the beautiful cherry blossom tree, there he would always meet a girl accompanied by a brown furred dog sitting there smiling at him, kiba and the girl have known each other for roughly two years ever since the girl's dog is little "Hi kiba-kun, you too akamaru" said the girl, akamaru barked in delight, the little puppy began to run towards the brown dog hoping it would play with him like always "Hi hikaru, enjoying yourself?" kiba said glumly while taking a seat beside her "To the fullest, kiba-kun" she said smiling while gazing towards to the blue sky above as the cherry blossoms dance with glee behind her, she had a beautiful long brown hair as it dances with the breeze, kiba stared at her with hurtful eyes he couldn't get the thought of the funeral and the event that happened out if his head "Is something wrong, kiba-kun?" she asked, kiba snapped out of his little trance "No umm… nothing's wrong" hikaru smiled back as she turned her gaze again towards the sky the cool breeze blowing against her smooth skin "I see…" she said as she watched the two furred animals wrestle each other, kiba edge a little bit closer to hikaru "You know… you… look more… radiant… today…" kiba said as he swallowed a chunk if his guts, hikaru was caught by the sentence, she was surprised at first but soon she calmed down "You know… I've always like you kiba-kun" she said as she move her beautiful brown eyes towards kiba's black eyes, she saw in his eyes that hurtful look, she sadly smiled as she then turn her eyes towards her lap, her hands lightly clenched resting on the surface of her long skirt her hair following the motion covering her brown eyes
Kiba was caught off-guard he didn't expected this "Hikaru… I'm sorr" kiba said sadly but was cut-off by hikaru, she looked at kiba with her crying eyes her tears falling freely from her face "No kiba I never did like you… I… loved you…" she said as the pink leaves rained upon the shinobi and the civilian below it, kiba froze his mind is in overdrive he can't think straight, hikaru never did get a reply as her tears dropped to her lap "Hikaru…" kiba said but before he could continue, a couple meters away, sound of grumbling wall consumed the sound of the silent breeze, both stood from were they are sitting, akamaru and the brown dog ran back to their respective masters "We must get out of here" shino said behind the tree, both kiba and hikaru stared at the eavesdropper "I won't utter a soul, kiba we must go…" shino said while looking at hikaru, kiba nodded his head and looked at hikaru "Hikaru run for the shelter… hikaru… I…lo…" kiba suddenly stop his sentence he clenched his fist then looked at his little companion "Let's go akamaru!" kiba yelled, shino glanced at hikaru before joining kiba, the eyes of hikaru are filled with tears as she mutters "I will always love you kiba-kun, take care" the cherry blossom tree branches swayed silently feeling the pain of the girl below it
End of Flashback
They stopped for a moment to catch a breather, kiba suddenly didn't feel well at all, he left the unanswered girl hanging he then took quick glances at the bodies fearing that one of them is someone he knew, akamaru suddenly whined loudly as he recognizes one of the dog lying lifelessly on the cold ground with someone hugging the dog, it was a teenage girl, a trail of blood is found behind the body, she crawled all the way at were she got shot to be with her dog… to die with her brown dog…
Kiba's worst nightmare has come true "Hikaru…" kiba said slowly, choking back tears, 'this isn't true… this isn't true…' he thought repeatedly as he began to walk closer he gasped, hikaru's brown eyes dilated open their he halted, lifeless brown eyes staring at him, his tears forced it's way out of his eyes "Hikaru…" he cried his tears falling down to the cold ground, shino just stood there watching, showing no emotion but he knew how is it like to lost someone close to you whether it be a fellow teammate… a friend… a loved one…
He slowly kneeled down in front of the lifeless body of hikaru, he quickly took out a kunai and edge it to his right pulse wrist "Hikaru…wait for me…" kiba said as he was about to slash his wrist, shino stood there in horror "Kiba!" he said running to his teammate, shino successfully kicked the kunai out of kiba's hands "What were you thinking" shino said raising his voice, kiba didn't listen as he was about to retrieve the kunai but was held back by shino holding him in a tight grip "Let go of me, I want to see her again, please… let… go… I want… to see her again… please… let go… please… let go… I beg of you…" kiba cried out, desperately reaching for the kunai, after a few moments he was able to calm himself down, once more he kneeled down he stared at the face of the one that claimed his heart, using his hand he gently closed both of her eyes "I… never did get… to confess…" kiba said sadly, as his tears rained down hikaru's smooth face then he heard a soothing voice, it was the voice of hikaru 'It's alright I understand, kiba-kun' he smiled sadly as cherry blossoms rained down upon them, kiba hugged the girl close to him there he cried on hikaru's cold shoulder, kiba's wails of cries consumed the silent breeze passing by, he longed for love… he longed for affection… he longed for hikaru… all that is left of him are his wet tears… his shattered heart and soul… and memories of the past…memories of hikaru with her pet under the beautiful cherry tree smiling at him for eternity…
A/N: true love can only come once in a lifetime, when you lose it your heart shatters, it can still melded back together by friends, family or even your pet animals, I wrote this chapter base on my memories of the past…
