NaruSaku Broken Chapter 3
Sakura reached her home, and slowly made her way inside. She sat down on her couch and closed her eyes. Just then there was a knock on the door. Sakura stood up slowly and walked over to her door and peered through the eyehole. Sakura gasped, as she saw none other than Saskue Uchiha outside her door. Reaching down to open the door Sakura wondered what he could want. "Good evening Saskue" said ninja smiled up at her "Evening Sakura-Chan." Sakura didn't know why but him calling her that made her angry, 'I want Naruto-Kun to call me that again.' "May I come in?" Sakura nodded and stepped aside as they made there way to the couch. Sakura walked to the kitchen and came back with two cups of tea and set them before them.
Saskue looked up at her, "Sakura I missed you so much, I am so sorry I left. I was such a fool leaving you and your love, it is my biggest regret." Sakura snapped her head at him in anger, "how about the hole you put in Naruto's chest! Do you regret that Saskue?" Saskue looked at her in the eyes as he sighed, "Naruto forgave me already please can you? I never wanted this I was so lost in the cursed seal. Naruto forgave me because he too knows what its like when a evil power takes over you. Please Sakura-Chan." Sakura looked at him for a while, "I will forgive you for Naruto."
They talked well into the night, and Sakura felt like things were slowly going back to normal. "Sakura-Chan you told me once that you loved me more than anything… I want to tell you that I feel the same way." Sakura was shocked to hear those words, the words she had always longed to hear. "I love you Sakura-Chan and I will never leave you again." Sakura then found herself wrapped in two arms. There was only one problem they weren't Naruto's. "Saskue I'm sorry but I don't have feelings for you anymore I love another…"
Saskue was furious when he heard this but he kept his temper in check. "Who is it Sakura-Chan, who is it that stole your heart while I was gone." Sakura gulped as she reluctantly met his gaze "I Love Naruto-Kun." Saskue face did not mirror his evil intentions as he spoke. "I hope we can still be friends, and good luck with Naruto." 'Naruto will not stand in my way; I will have Sakura and become Hokage. Soon Naruto will be out of my way completely.
Naruto cried himself to sleep that night, he dreamed of a certain pink haired woman. Naruto awoke to his hell; he rolled out of bed and grabbed the Saki he had saved for a special occasion and began to down it. The alcohol burned his throat but quelled the ache in his heart. After drinking the entire bottle he began cleaning out the rest of his alcohol stash that consisted of a little wine, rum, and whiskey. Naruto felt great as he lay back down on his bed and drifted back to sleep. Naruto awoke again and realized he spent the entire day passed out. He looked at his clock before rolling over and discovering he wasn't alone. He was now looking at the peaceful face of a pink haired angel. He hadn't felt her body against his in his hung over state. 'Why was Sakura-Chan in my bed, and why was she holding me?'
"Sakura wake up." Sakura's eyelids fluttered open revealing beautiful green eyes. However she quickly blushed as two azure blue eyes gazed back at hers. "What were you doing?" Naruto asked in confusion. Sakura looked up at him "you don't remember anything do you?" Naruto stared at her mind reeling "what do you mean I don't remember?" Sakura looked at him slightly hurt but quickly lied "I came over here to take care of you, you had alcohol poisoning." Naruto could tell she was holding back but he didn't push it, his heart hurt just seeing her here.
---Flash Back---
Sakura had come to Naruto's house after she hadn't seen him all day. She let her self in and saw him lying in his bed empty bottles of hard liquor littered his room. 'How much did he drink?' She noticed him stirring and went to his side. Naruto was dead drunk as he opened one eye, "Sakura-Chan?" Sakura's heart leapt at the familiar suffix, "What are you…ugh…doing here?" Sakura took hold of Naruto's hand as she told him she was sorry for everything. Naruto stared blankly at her "Naruto-Kun I love you… I love you so much! Please I am so sorry for what I did in the past please give me a chance." Naruto smiled at her "of course Sakura-Chan I would do anything for you I lov…." Naruto's face suddenly went dark "I can't take you from Saskue." Sakura looked at him questioningly "Naruto me and Saskue aren't together I don't love him I love you!" Naruto looked at her in pain, and confusion "then why do I have to pretend I don't love you?" Sakura was shocked 'what does he mean?' "Naruto" Sakura began "What are you talking about?" Naruto yawned and placed his head on her shoulder "Shhh Sakura-Chan it's a secret…" Naruto then feel limp in her arms and she simply held him pondering what he was talking about. She looked down at the sleeping boy 'why is he so different towards me when he's drunk?
---End Flash Back---
Sakura simply grabbed Naruto's hand and dragged him to the door. "Common we're getting some ramen!" Naruto was still hung-over and too tired to argue as he let the pink haired girl drag him down the street. The two arrived and ordered there food as a Saskue walked in. 'There both here, this will be easier than I thought. I will show you the real Naruto Sakura, I will show this whole village.' Saskue took a seat next to Naruto and the three ate in relative silence since Saskue being there made things awkward. Saskue felt the Hokage was close so he put his plan in to action. Lucky for me Yamato is out of country on a mission this week he thought. Saskue leaned over to Naruto's ear and began whispering. "You know Sakura-Chan didn't even want to sleep with me the other night. I had to change her mind…"
Underneath the table Naruto's fists clenched as Saskue let the idea hang in the air. "She looked so helpless being taken advantage of… Just like her parents before I killed them." Naruto's hand instantly shot to Saskue's throat as he slammed him into the wall in the ramen store. "You son of a bitch!" He shouted as a red aurora took him over and three tails now swung behind him. Naruto growled at Saskue as his skin began to peel off. Saskue pretended to have no idea what was going on. "Naruto what are you doing!" Naruto could no longer hear anything as the Ramen store blew up revealing a sprawled out Saskue and a pissed off four tail Naruto.
"Naruto! Naruto please stop!" Saskue who was currently fighting the Jinchuriki yelled to her "He cant hear you Sakura this isn't Naruto." Sakura saw the scene in front of her Saskue was protecting her from Naruto? Naruto roared in primal rage as he charged at the Uchiha. Saskue put an elongated Chidori through his chest but caught a claw to his arm in the process. Saskue flew back and hit the ground hard. In an instant Naruto was on top of him, he reared back a claw to end the traitor's life. Just then he was struck in the forehead. He saw his Kazan pull back and felt the chakra being sucked out of him. Naruto swayed violently and saw Saskue smirking and holding a crying Sakura, and then Naruto blacked out.
Naruto awoke in the hospital but something was different his arms felt heavy. He opened his eyes to see he was in full restraints, and two Anbu were in the corner watching him. One of them seeing him awake got up and left. A few minutes later the Anbu re entered with Tsunade. "Kazan what's going on?" Tsunade looked up at Naruto could see the tears in her eyes, "Naruto for being a danger to the people, as ordered by the counsel I hereby banish you from the Hidden Leaf." Naruto simply smiled, "It's not your fault Kazan." After being un chained he gave his mother one last hug. "I will be fine take care of Sakura for me, do not trust Saskue." Tsunade nodded. Naruto took of his prized headband; he held it longingly in his hand before handing it to his mother. "Please give this to Sakura-Chan for me."
Naruto walked out of the city he had called home for all his life. He looked out at the expansive country before biting his thumb and ramming his hand into the ground. A giant plume of smoke filled the sky as Naruto now stood on top of Gamabunta. "Take me away boss." Normally the frog boss would argue but deep down he liked the kid. "Where do you want to go Gaki" Naruto looked down as tears poured from his eyes. "Somewhere far away from here…"
---Time Skip---
It had been four years since Naruto had last seen his village. Now he walked under the gate wearing a blue and white coat that looked almost like his fathers the Kanji for the fourth on the back. His hair was longer and he was the spitting image of the fourth Hokage only he had three whiskers on each cheek. The difference between the two great Kages was Naruto had a hidden mist headband now. Sarenji Naruto's long time friend and one of the legendary seven swordsmen appeared by his side. "Mizukage-Sama the meeting of the Kages will begin soon." Naruto simply smiled 'it will be good to see Kazan and Gaara.' The meeting being held was about how to handle the threat of Akatsuki to the five villages.
After walking a few more yards Naruto's other side was occupied very suddenly by Torrin. Torrin was a quiet man who had been one of Naruto's first supporters as Mizukage. Also one of the legendary seven swordsmen of the mist, he was a force to be reckoned with in battle. Naruto smiled as both of his bodyguards flanked him as he entered the tent. "Hello Kazan, and Sakura…" Both said women looked at the man before them in disbelieve, no one knew the Fourth Mizukage's name and the man standing before them warmed their hearts. "Naruto-Kun…" Sakura muttered her feet were already in motion she ran flat out at him.
Sakura stopped as she felt cold steel at her throat. She saw the man in front of her with a long and elegant katana held at her throat. "It is un-wise to approach the Mizukage to quickly." Sarenji eyed the girl before he felt an overpowering killing intent wash over him. The chakra he felt made the air heavy and he was having a hard time not shaking. He looked over to see the Mizukage holding the pink haired girl in his arms while giving him a disapproving glare. "It is also un-wise to try and harm Sakura in my presence Sarenji." Naruto's voice held a power Sakura had never heard before, his tone left no room for argument. Sarenji sheathed his sword and bowed "my apologize Mizukage-Sama"
Naruto smiled as he hugged the girl. He smiled as he saw she was wearing his forehead protector. A swish was heard as the tent opened and Naruto stiffened. He swiftly turned to Tsunade "Lady Hokage get that trash out of here or you will lose a ninja before the day is over." If anyone in the tent thought his killing intent was high a bit ago they had no idea the power Naruto controlled. Sakura feel to her knees as the air began to burn with red Chakra, dark chakra that smothered the room. Naruto glared at the traitor, "I told you I would end your life Teme, don't make me keep that promise so soon." Saskue who could barley stand was roughly escorted outside by a hand made of sand. Naruto's glare turned into a broad grin as he walked forward to embrace his brother from the sand. "How are you Gaara?
Gaara was happy to his brother, one of the only people that had shared his pain. After they had greeted each other the two Kages began to catch up. Sakura was very happy Naruto was being so warm towards her. As he talked with Gaara Naruto pulled Sakura under his arm and simply held her there. She was so lost in his touch the stories of their adventures were lost to her ears. Sakura leaned up after the two had finished talking and kissed Naruto on the cheek. "Can I talk to you?" Sakura whispered in his ear. Naruto turned to fully embrace her "there is much we need to talk about, but I have a few things I must do first." Naruto gazed at her "you will have my full attention after this meeting." Sakura smiled "So it's a date Mizukage?" Naruto couldn't stop the grin from forming on his face "believe it."
