A/N: Sorry for the extremely LOOONG hiatus I went on. I'm trying to get some stuff done in this story while I still can upload things so this chapter and the previous one were a bit rushed. I am not making up nonsense, I swear it will get explained xD Soon hopefully...Just need to keep writing in it. R+F

"Grahh!" Sasuke screamed after furiously as he slammed his fist into a tree, the same tree that he had passed just an hour or so ago, and had continued to pass for the previous hours, perhaps the tree that he would continue to pass if he didn't figure something out. He took in a breath as he leaned forward onto the tree. He felt like he had been searching this damn forest for days and found himself only lost. He was hungry and dirty and wished more than anything to be able to go home and take one god damn blissful shower. Sasuke took in a deep breath and released it, calming himself down. He got stupid when he got angry, and being stupid was not what he needed to be right now. After a long moment of "calming" time, he looked forward at where he thought he went last time. Before when that happened he went a different way and ended up back here, this time, he figured he'd go that way, and continue that way until he found himself somewhere else, anywhere else.

After a long moment of just walking he stopped to look around, trying to remember any specific trees or dirt markings he had made. If he saw any, then he knew he was going the wrong way, if he didn't, then finally he might be able to get somewhere. Letting his eyes wander for a bit, his ears perked up when he heard a form of rustling coming from behind him. Keeping still he listened harder, trying to tell the difference between movement and the wind, just as a twig snapped. In that split second Sasuke didn't bother in thinking on anything and just found himself sprinting. Running and running further, thinking a million different thoughts on what that sound could've been. His first thoughts were that it was a large animal, his next thought going into it possibly being the hospital nurses or government officials looking for him, and finally, just some random wild person living out here.

Sasuke finally stopped after realizing he had long run out of breath awhile ago and leaned forward on his knees to take in breaths. He felt safer now, he hoped he was safer now at least. It was probably just an animal…that had to be it, not any of those crazy thoughts he had earlier. This had to of been the stupidest choice he had ever made in his life..

Sasuke continued throwing thoughts at himself as he forced his body to keep moving. The one good thing that had come out of that panic was that he finally got out of his endless circle of a repeating path. Even though he had sprinted around for a good while, he could still feel eyes on him, still feel another presence on him. Just as Sasuke was thinking these thoughts another rustling noise grabbed his attention, but not quick enough. Sasuke was tackled to the ground by the maker of the rustling and son found a sharp dagger against his throat.

When did he go from being the average working teen, to an insane one, to an insane one that was about to get killed by a jungle man? God this was too messed up for him, way too messed up. "Up." The man commanded to Sasuke as he kept the dagger to his throat, but gave him enough freedom to stand up. Sasuke had to think a moment before his mind registered the command. He pushed himself up off the ground and held his hands up as if he was being arrested. Sasuke's back was to the man, so he had no idea what he looked like. He didn't know if this was someone living off the forest or someone that had come to retrieve him back so he could be "deleted". The man felt up his body quickly, as if searching for something of any use, and then spun Sasuke around to be examined further. Just as their eyes locked, Sasuke's heart just sank. His mind froze, his body shook and his heart just seemed to have stopped. This had finally proven it. Sasuke was crazy, he really was. He did loose his mind, and right now, his mind was just putting together random events of his life and throwing people out in front of him. There wasn't really a dagger to his neck, no, it wasn't really there, it was probably just a tree branch or something, and this person in front of him, no, it wasn't a person it was just a tree trunk maybe? He had just tripped over something, that's why it felt like someone tackled him.

In Sasuke's absolute shock, he began laughing nervously, pointing a finger at the man and then mumbling things before going instantly weak and passing out.

When Sasuke finally woke up from his unconscious state, he was surprised to be met with a night sky…and to hear fire crackling by him. The smell of the burning wood woke him up quicker.

He groaned, pushing himself up rubbing his eyes.

"….Why are you out here…?" Sasuke turned his head to be met with the man that caused his unconsciousness. He stared for a moment, still not quite believing who he was seeing. The question didn't register in his mind for a while and when it did, he didn't answer it. Instead, he felt a sudden anger burst out of him.

"Why am I out here? Shouldn't I be asking YOU that!" Sasuke yelled to the almost stranger. He wasn't sure what to think now, or actually, he wasn't sure what to think at all anymore. It had just been one big thing after another, after another. This could've been thrown at him maybe a few months ahead of time, but no, it all has to come crashing down on him at once.

The man didn't respond for a moment, and when he did, he only seemed to repeat the question, just with different words. "On the contrary, being out here, you of all people I used to know, are the absolute last person I'd think of seeing. So I should be asking you."

Sasuke stared for a long moment, the fire bright, but not bright enough reveal the details of the person's figure. He let out a sigh before turning to the side and burying his hands in his face. "I…I don't know… It's so complicated I don't even know where to start…"

"…" A small breeze whipped past them, causing the fire to flicker on about in confusion. "…Obviously, I can tell nothing from it is a good story…"

Sasuke laughed to the statement. He didn't even care anymore if this was just his mind playing tricks on him. It somehow got him a fire, and somehow reunited him with someone he lost long ago. He turned his head again to try and see more of the main, only to see small movement. "…Seriously though…Why are you out here…? Why'd you leave?"

The talking shadow chuckled before letting out a breath. "You're so abnormally calm about this reunion."

"If that's what you want to call this then…" Sasuke shrugged. "Am I gonna find Ma and Dad running around here too?" It was a terrible joke, but he felt like he couldn't have thought of anything better to say.

"…No…They…" Sasuke found his eyes looking into the fire, watching as the wood burned and darkened. "Were deleted…"

His eyes then looked up to the man, confused with his choice of words. "Deleted?" he repeated. "You mean killed?"

He chuckled in response and then spoke again. "We have a lot to talk about…They were 'deleted'…'erased'…In the type of world we live in there is no such thing as killing. Killing is the definition of one man ending another's life. How can someone be killed if they're not killed by a man?"

Sasuke was completely confused by what he was saying. "You're…loosing me…I don't get it, Itachi…"
