Alright chapter 7:D I'm really flattered though thank you all for reviewing so nicely... I'm really glad you all enjoy this story :)

Disclaimer: Nope fortunately I don't own Naruto.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

Sakura had screamed loudly, scared to death as Orochimaru launched at her with a katana directed at her chest.

She closed her eyes.

And she heard the metal clash with something else.

She opened her eyes to see a man standing about a head taller then her, his own katana pressed fiercely against the other man's katana. The male was a young man, probably around 16 years of age. His eyes were blood red. She couldn't quite see his hair since he had this long black coat on with the hood up. She could only say it looked kind of black but not quite... a little lighter... and kind of spiky.

The two men stood there, katana against katana, glaring at each other.

"Don't you touch her" The young male hissed through gritted teeth.

The older male smirked evilly. "But I thought you said you didn't care about her" He cleverly recalled.

The young male's eyes widen for a second but resumed their cold and angry look. He remained silent.

"Did you lie to me, Sasuke-kun?" Orochimaru murmured, grinning evilly.

Sakura gasped. "Sasuke...?" She repeated.

Orochimaru laughed and vanished in thin air.

"You are..." Sakura put a hand on the young man's shoulder. Sasuke flinched at her touch, and she turned him around slowly, then gasped as she saw his hair wasn't black but... the same color as the boy on the picture frame... and... His eyes...

Her eyes widen as they switched back to their onyx color. He was staring blankly at her as she was inspecting him. She reached out for his hood and he hesitantly backed up as she put it down. She was gaping at him.

"Why do I feel like I know you?" She whispered.

He stayed silent.

He looked like an older version of the boy in the picture.

"Stay away from that man" is all the young man had said before activating his sharingan, making her fall into unconsciousness.

Sasuke caught her as she fell.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

He had erased her memory a second time. This time... making sure she remembered that man... Orochimaru...

He stared impassively at her innocent sleeping face before laying her down gently on the bed.

He walked over to the door but abruptly stopped as the sound of broken glass resounded in his ears. He looked down to see he had stepped on a picture frame, which was already broken. He picked it up and his facial expression softened.

The team 7 picture.

He had forgotten about it.

He'd left his in his room when he left Konoha. He looked over to the sleeping Sakura and back to the picture. Then he casually shoved the picture in his pocket. It was better if she didn't see that picture... it was all better if she didn't remember him...

He swiftly turned around and jumped out of her window, glancing one last time at her before activating his sharingan and continuing to run in the direction of the sound village...

Tonight is the 'kill the snake man' night for dear Sasuke.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

"I knew you would come for me..." Orochimaru said, chuckling evilly.

Sasuke simply stood there, a couple of meters away from his master, staring impassively at him. "Hn"

Orochimaru chuckled again and shook his head, smirking evilly.

"I'm done here with you Orochimaru." Sasuke said monotonously.

Orochimaru scowled. "And you think I'll let you go that easily? Don't forget you're my next container." He hissed.

"Hn. Like I care." Sasuke boringly said, angering the older man.

Orochimaru let out a growl and stood up in front of Sasuke, glaring defiantly.

Sasuke smirked and took out his katana, an invitation for a battle.

Orochimaru's face hadn't changed. It remained unhappy and angry.

Both men charged at each other, katana's out and thrusted forward.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

"Sakura-chan?" Naruto called out, shaking Sakura gently.

"Hmm... Hmmm?" Sakura groaned, flicking her eyes open to see the 15 year old blond staring down at her.

"Naruto? Why'd you wake me up?" She mumbled sleepily.

"The whole village heard you scream last night Sakura-chan, I was worried."

Sakura laughed. "Naruto that was just a mouse. Took me by surprise that's all."

Naruto looked around as he felt a familiar chakra floating by. It was very very weak but he could sense it just barely.

"That's good to know. And..." He started, smiling widely. "You're late for work"

Sakura gasped. "Shit!" She cursed before jumping out of her bed, brushing her hair rapidly and running out of her house on her way to the hospital.

Naruto frowned as he walked around her room; he stopped as he stepped onto what seemed glass. He looked down to see a broken frame in which he remembered was the frame the team 7 picture was in. He picked it up and frowned as the chakra he had sensed earlier felt stronger on that picture frame.

He gasped as he recognized it.

"Sasuke..." Naruto whispered.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

Sasuke stared at the blood that ran down his katana blade, down to the handle, to his hands. He watched as the blood dripped down his fingers. Yes well finally, Sasuke had been able to kill that Orochimaru snake-bastard. Sakura would be safe now. And he would have freed the world from another Michael Jackson pedophile wannabe.

Alas he had done something great for the world.

His katana was plunged deep within the snake-bastard's chest, beside the hole in his chest his chidori had created. Sasuke could've killed that bastard then but he had dashed to the left, making him miss his target.

He had to admit though; the battle wasn't really that hard. But Orochimaru was already weak. His battle with his brother would be much much harder.

The thought made his heart thump rapidly. He was excited.

He'd do anything to see Itachi's blood stained on his hands.

Anything.

Even if it meant throwing his own life away.

"You don't stand a chance against Itachi" Orochimaru breathed out, smirking.

"Well see about that" Sasuke hissed, dropping his katana and letting Orochimaru fall on the ground, motionless.

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O

Hmmm... I'm not really satisfied with this chapter since it was rushed I admit. I just had to finish this fast before my sister came. And well... ah... next chapter will be better :D

Review please!
