The List of Uchiha
Naruto P.O.V
I arrive at the temple panting I can see my breath I hug my bare shoulders. This temple once was working long ago then around the time I was born, it was smashed guess by who. After the nine-tailed incident, it was rebuilt as a hotel for travelers and resting Ninjas returning from the desert villages. It still didn't get enough business and closed down I guess they gave up on keeping it clean because the red paint was peeling and patches had been torn down. Iruka said this was around where he had his first mission. I picture Iruka small standing in front this place excited for his first mission as a genin then only to have it serve as a reminder that he lost his parents the night it was smashed ripping away the sweetness of the place. I sigh wondering if they should tear this place down or not.
"Well, no time to waste let's get moving legs!" I shout happily trying to brighten my gloomy mood I have things to do and I don't want to be depressed for who ever it is unless they're mean then its okay. Either way I need to move I laugh I'm not nervous I'm just cold yeah and tired I'm exhausted not scared. I open the doors and swallow as they make a loud echoing creak through out the temple. I hear something drop on the wood floor I jump then scold myself when I see I just bumped a vase.
"Umm, Hello anyone here?" I call wishing the lights were on. Then as if by magic the light switch on, I follow the click noise back to a person in a hooded cloak sitting next to a light switch. "So, um you sent the letter?" they raise their head I'm met by blue eyes.
Narrator P.O.V
Sasuke tried his best to find good things about not killing Hideyoshi he really did. It was the longest two minutes of his life! He was just babbling about how they would become friends soon and do 'all sorts of fun activities and share cherished moments,' 'What joy!' Sasuke wondered if this was going to be like with his fan girls of course every few minutes he'd blow his hair out of his face and remind Sasuke that he was leaving soon as if Sasuke was the one suggesting they should spend every waking moment together. Every new activity that came out of his mouth was replied in Sasuke's mind with a die!
"So, what kind of person are you?"
'The kind that is losing brain cells just by being around you!' Sasuke thought, but reluctantly answered as "I don't know avenger I guess," thinking more about killing anyone who was mean to Naruto, rather then his brother now. He noticed the change and decided he felt more important now.
"An avenger like a super hero that's awesome! The Night Justice I can see it you fight crimes and right wrongs that's why you're a ninja right!" he exclaimed making whooshing noises and flying motions. Sasuke twitched more freaked out now then annoyed 'this guy is crazier then me he's the one who needs pills!' That was true partly anyway Tsunade had prescribed weekly check ups for Sasuke and some pills in the mean time. He hadn't told Naruto or anyone really did he need to bother anyone with it. Sasuke was thinking about not taking them, but thought better of since he had broken down before he wonder if he would again, so just to be safe he would obey. Now back to this moron Sasuke turned back to set him straight as best as he could by simply stating.
"You couldn't be more wrong,"
"You're not a villain then are you?" Hideyoshi narrowed his eyes Sasuke wondered if he should let this person walk around if he should even be having this conversation.
"You're on something aren't you," Sasuke stated flatly making Hideyoshi fall to the ground and then quickly resume his seat long enough to defend his self.
"Hey, that's mean to say I'm just a little spacey,"
"A little," Sasuke stared at the man in disbelief.
"Okay, see if I ever take you to sushi again." He said folding his arms and blowing his hair out of his eyes again.
"I paid remember, and I don't care if I ever see you again,"
"Yeah but I brought you here," He said as if that was a good argument before adding, "Besides you like hanging out with me,"
"What the hell is wrong with you that you would say that," Sasuke said with disinterested, half-lidded eyelids wondering how this conversation was still going.
"I know it's true because you would have left if you didn't" Oh yeah that's how he's insane and his logic is scattered like marbles on the floor.
"…" Still he had a point Sasuke didn't want to stay but he had. Hideyoshi watched, as Sasuke didn't reply and grinned triumphantly.
"Now then, since you are not a super hero who do you avenge?" Sasuke didn't have to think long he was still the confident Uchiha with everything he wasn't shy to admit Naruto was his.
"I avenge Naruto," Sasuke turned to face forward putting his elbows on the sushi bar resting his feet coolly on the bar stool. He relaxed starting to feel like his old calm collected self.
"Oh, I see," Hideyoshi smiled and giggled.
"Something funny," Sasuke asked not caring what anyone thought he knew he was right in this area.
"Nothing it's sweet to see Naruto found someone to protect him while I was gone,"
"He's strong on his own, but I won't let anyone wrong him," Sasuke said guilty he was so late in Naruto's life and proud he was there now. He tried to remind himself he should watch his pride since it could get him into trouble again but when it came to Naruto he smirked with ever proud and arrogant fiber in his body.
"Glad to hear," Hideyoshi, said he had to go see the Hokage and left shortly. Leaving Sasuke to himself, he felt exhausted after having to deal with Hideyoshi. Then he kept in mind he still had to find Naruto's follower, but had no idea where to start.
Shikamaru P.O.V
I decided it's wise after this, to never set off the white-hot tempers of either Naruto or Sasuke. I'm not sure which is scarier I don't want think about since I'm going to die either way. How troublesome I'm seriously going to die by loud mouth, blond, idiot and/or cold, arrogant, Uchiha great options that are both equally painful. Oh, man I HATE my life. I could beg Tsunade for a long and far away mission, yes it's not my business to be involved in their problems or in the way of their anger. All right, off I go then I have to pack and beg her until I can't see straight.
"Shikamaru," I hear a tiny voice behind me as I walk down the dark, poor excuses for streetlights lined street.
"Ino, what's up?"
"I want to say sorry very acting that way, but I just can't stand it anymore,"
"What are you talking about?" I know she's apologizing for the fight with Temari, but after that, it's too vague.
"I guess I finally realized who I like as more then childhoods crush. I like you a lot Shikamaru honest," I sigh.
"I understand and accept your feelings, but I'm in a relationship with Temari and I like her. I'm sorry," Man what a drag she's crying I hate when girls cry.
"Thank you, I'm sorry I knew better," She's trying to act professionally about this, "I'll see you around okay Shikamaru and if things don't work out…"
"I'll think about it," She nods and walks away making me feel like a jerk. Why does always happen? Am I such a loser?
The next morning:
Sasuke P.O.V
"What the hell!" Naruto walks down the street looking like a hurricane hit him.
"It's okay Sasuke I'm fine,"
"That's what you call fine did someone do this to you," I say trying to calm down to no avail. "Was it that stalker?!"
"Shh, no it's fine I went…stalker?"
"Yeah, Shikamaru said that you had one bothering that's why you left isn't it?"
"No, gee for a genius you think he'd come up with better huh?" I begin to walk away. "Hey, Sasuke where are you going?"
"To kill Nara,"
"Oh, Sasuke stop it get back here," he grabs my shoulder and pouts I decide to kill him later.
"Where did you go then Naruto I want answers now no more lies tell me," Which I guess he caught at the end when I whispered 'who to kill,' since he glared at me.
"I'll tell you everything okay now stop looking like you'll jump anyone who walks by," I wanted to say I'll do more then look the part, but I let it go as we still stand in his apartment hallway that reminds me that when I tried to go in Naruto wouldn't let me. I look past Naruto, that his door is open that's when I see there is no door.
"Wait a minute," I push past Naruto, but he grabs my arm. "Naruto let go,"
"No, come on well go to your place," he says tugging on me softly looking down at the ground not meeting my gaze.
"What's in there that you don't want me to see?"
"Nothing please Sasuke let's leave," He looks like he's about to cry.
"No more," I look him in the eyes and repeat myself he was surprised and loosened his grip I took advantage of it and slipped out. What I see stops my breathing I failed look what happened the room, I couldn't protect him at all.
"It happens all the time nothing to worry about it," I look at him he's smiling after everything he just smiles. I walk in and start knocking things over looking for his stuff. "Sasuke what are you doing!" Naruto must have thought I was breaking things, but I just take his stuff in my arms. I look up at him after I have an armload of his crap. He must have thought I was going to say something, but I threw his stuff in his arms as he stumbled backwards I went back to work. "What are you doing?" he asked again I stopped he was right.
"Good point leave it we'll get new stuff,"
"What?!"
"You're moving in with me," He's speechless mouth agape I smirk.
