Sasuke - "I'm not like you guys."

Sasuke - "My path is different than yours."

Sasuke - "I did think the four of us together was a possible path, though. But despite of us being together, my heart has chosen revenge."

Sasuke - "That's what I live for."

Sasuke - "I can't be like you or Naruto."

Sakura - "But won't you be lonely all by yourself then? "

Sakura - Sasuke-kun, you told me that being alone hurts!"

Sakura - "I have family... and friends...but to me..."

Sakura - " If you'd leave.."

Sakura - It'd be...just the same as being alone."

Sasuke - "From now on...we'll be taking new paths.."

Sakura - "SASUKE-KUN! I love you more than anything, Sasuke-kun.."

Sakura - "If you're by my side...I promise you won't regret it. I'll make every day more enjoyable..so you can be happy! I...would do anything for you..That's why..."

Sakura - "That's why I'm begging you not to go!"

Sakura - "I'll help you with your revenge! There must be something even I can do!"

Sakura - " So...please...stay here with me.. And if you can't... Then take me with you, please.."

Sasuke - "After all this time...you're still annoying."

--------------------------

Gasping, Sasuke woke up with a shock, without another though, Sasuke closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

"Wait a minute, WHERE AM I!?"

Once again, the Uchiha woke up and looked around, he was in Konoha medical centre. Soon, four Konoha policemen bursted in.

Police : "Hello Sasuke, I was wondering if you would answer some of my questions?"

Sasuke - "Hn."

Police : "Ok tough guyjust tell me who was the attacker? Do you have a name? a description?"

Sasuke - "Sorry, No. I cannot remember"

Police - "Hm. Ok, thank you for your time."

After the police had left. Sasuke closed his eyes again and started to think..

"Hm.. I cannot tell them Sakura was the one who did it, that would put her in more danger that she is already in with Orochimaru..Hm.. Orochimaru, I haven't heard from him since those three assassins.. Maybe he wont attack Sakura as long as I'm alive, and with that big bounty, It won't be long before Orochimaru makes a move.."

Sasuke's chest was now back to normal, so he decided to leave the medical centre, he went to the nurse.

Sasuke - "I'm fine now, can I please leave this place?

Nurse - "Oh, I'm sorry, but unless you have fully healed, I cannot let you leave"

Disappointed, the Uchiha went back to bed. After a few minutes of thinking to himself, he heard some whispering near his window.

Unknown Person - "Now that Sasukes in hospital, this is our perfect chance to strike Sakura."

Unknown Person 2 - "I agree, I'll get the others, meet me outside her home in a hour.."

Unknown Person - "Yes.. Can't wait to get my hands on that reward."

Shocked and confused with what he had just heard, the Uchiha only had sixty minutes till Orochimaru's ninja's get to Sakura. He had to act fast. He decided to break out, after getting dressed in his own clothes, he ran towards the door.

Guard - "HEY! Where do you think your going!!"

With no choice.

Sasuke - "Hōsenka no Jutsu!" (Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique)

Multiple fireballs came flying at the guards, causing a distraction, soon the Uchiha excaped and relised that he had only thirty more minutes. He dashed towards Sakura's home and waited, due to the long run, he had only five more minutes. Without warning, thousands of kunai started to fly towards Sasuke. With all the noise, Sakura came running out.

Sakura - "Whats happening!? SASUKE?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!?"

Sasuke - "GET INSIDE AND DON'T COME OUT!

Sasuke - "THESE ARE OROCHIMARU'S MEN AND WILL KILL YOU!"

Obeying, Sakura ran inside and looked out the window.

Sasuke - "Hn. Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!!" (Shadow Clone Technique)

Sasuke started to multiply into thousands. Activating his Sharingan and his cursed seal, the Uchiha started to fight the thousands of ninja.

Sasuke - "Gōkakyū no Jutsu,!!" (Great Fireball Technique)

Struggling, Sasuke was starting to fear that he would lose, after all, he was against thousands of ninja, but after a couple of minutes, Sasuke relised that these ninja were very untrained and still Genins. With new confidence, the Uchiha started to fight off all the Genins.

Sasuke - "Ryūka no Jutsu!!" (Dragon Fire Technique)

Sasuke - "Gōkakyū no Jutsu!!" (Great Fireball Technique)

After fighting for a long time, the Uchiha was tired. He unwillingly activated his cursed seal into level two.

Sasuke - "HABUTAKU CHIDORI!!" (Flapping One Thousand Birds)

Using his advanced Chidori, he stabbed his charged arm into all the Genins causing all of them to die. After all had died, the Uchiha relised what he had done, he had killed hundreds of innocent Genins.. Sasuke heard a twitch and turned around, a Genin was hiding.

Sasuke - "Hn. Run or die."

The Genin ran with all his strengh and left Konoha.

Sasuke - "HAHAHA, OROCHIMARU! IS THAT ALL YOU CAN OFFER?! GENINS?! HAHA, TRY HARDER!"

Sakura came dashing out, after a long chat, Sasuke showed her the letter that he stole of the three assassins a long time ago.

Sakura - "Thank you,Sasuke!"

Sasuke - "Hn. You still tried to kill me.."

Sakura quickly hugged the Uchiha and whispered in his ear.

Sakura - "Sorry about the other night.."

Sasuke soon left and was walking towards his own home.. On his way, he was thinking to himself..

"I have a feeling that Orochimaru will strike again.. But for now, I need rest.."
