Chapter 7 - My Room, New Outfits, And A Dark Dream


Satsuki and Sasuke met again near Sasuke's house. They then headed out for a bed. They went to a 'furniture' store and looked around. Soon they had chosen one, it was small but nice. Satsuki paid for it and then they left.

While walking home. Sasuke hid behind the bed, away from the eyes of his fan girls. Satsuki took a sudden stop, making them collide. She didn't fall over, he didn't fall over. She was in front of a decoration store. She handed Sasuke the bed, or rather, she laid it next to him. Satsuki came out 5 minutes later with a bag and they headed to the house.

"So...we have a bed, what about a room?" Sasuke asked as they got inside.

"I got these." she showed Sasuke the bag, it was filled with hanging beads, bamboo curtains, and other such things that could hang from the wall and hide what was behind them.

"So...where's the bed going?" he asked.

"Your room, I guess." she muttered, pointed towards his door. He didn't answer for awhile.

"Fine." he said finally. "But you'd best make sure those curtains are well hung." he opened the door to his bedroom and they took the bed in.

After setting it up, Sasuke went to make dinner while Satsuki hung the bead curtains.

"Dinners rea...dy?" he started as he entered the room. His room looked the same except for the fact that a corner of it looked like a dressing room wall. The beads hid the bed, and possibly Satsuki, perfectly.

"Okay. I'll be out in a minute." came Satsuki's voice from behind the curtains.

Sasuke left the room and sat down to eat. Satsuki came out about 30 seconds after he sat down and got her own food. Sasuke ate with his right elbow on the table, eyes closed, and seeming quite indifferent. They ate like this, Satsuki eating normally, until finally Satsuki cleared her throat.

"Hmm?" Sasuke asked, not moving from his position.

"Well? Do you like the outfit?" she asked. Sasuke opened one eye to look at her, then opened both eyes as he got a good look at her.

"You look like..." he started. Satsuki blushed slightly. "A girl..." she glared at him.

"Of course I look like a girl! I am a girl!" she yelled, punching the table right next to her plate. The table shook.

"I know that!" Sasuke yelled...sorta. He was blushing slightly. "It's just...you usually dress like a guy." he said, trying to regain himself. She stopped glaring and stared.

"Oh. Well, that makes sense." She sat down and finished her food.

Sasuke had trouble not looking at her all through the rest of dinner. Her black hair was down, flowing down her back like black water. He noticed her skin was slightly pale from wearing a cloak most times. She had a slightly more developed figure than Sakura and the dress she wore looked great on her. She soon noticed his lack of the ability to not look at her and gave him a suspicious look.

"You're not starting to get lecherous thoughts now are you? Cause I had enough of that when we met that kid in the forest." she was slightly glaring at him. He blushed and began to eat quickly.

"No. It's not that. Just, you're...pretty...kinda." he was blushing deep red now. Soon they finished and she went into her curtained area with a huge smile on.

"I'll probably be gone when you wake up. I'll be back as soon as I can though, k?" she muttered to him as she lay in bed. There was no answer so she supposed he was asleep.

"Die!" I heard a voice scream.

"Die! Die!" it repeated.

"Die! Die!" It laughed evilly. "Die!"

I can hear sword slashes and screams. But it's as if I'm blind. All is dark around me and all I can do is listen. The screams of a boy reach my ears and I can see. But the screams are gone. I look around me, but it looks normal, like I had been daydreaming.

People walk around me, going about their everyday lives, I feel short. Why do I feel short? As I look myself over I find I am the size of a 6 year old! Why am I 6 again? A woman grabs my hand and leads me towards the edge of the village. I am wearing black clothing and a ninja headband.

Someone is following us. I turned around to see a boy near a building. He stops as our eyes meet. For a while our eyes stay met, and I am sad. I am sad to have to leave, I am sad to leave the village behind, the people, that boy. Wait! I remember this!

This is the day I left! That boy! With short black hair, dark clothing, and something special about him. I wonder what he did when we left. He had followed us out of the village, but after that moment, my hand is pulled and I'm lead away.

My vision is covered in the darkness of the forest. Where is the boy? He followed us, right? We had connected for a moment, right? Didn't we? He was a Uchiha, wasn't he? Why were we leaving again? My mind is scrambled as we continue to walk. Maybe he was still around, but because I was confused I didn't see him? No, I could have sensed him. Who is he?

"Die!" I hear the voice again. "Die! Die!" the slashes, the screams. Make it stop! Make it stop! "Die!"

He laughs an evil laugh. I can not see. The screams, slashes, and laughter fill my ears, my head. It is all so loud! Now all I hear is one thing. No more slashes, no more laughter, no cries of pain except one. The cry of a boy.

The cry is not of physical pain, but of emotional and mental pain. Something terrible happened.

He is hurt,

I can smell the blood.

He lost something dear to him,

I can feel his sorrow.

He is angry at the laughing man,

I can sense his anger.

Satsuki woke up with a jump. It was a dream? She had dreamt of the day she left, the cries of the Uchiha's when they died still filled her head. She shook them out and then took a quick shower.

"What time is it?" she asked herself, checking the clock. 4:52 a.m. She sighed and got dressed in her dark-Sakura-like outfit. She ate a small breakfast and checked the clock. 5:18 a.m. She sighed again and left.

Sasuke would wake up in a couple of hours, but she'd be home by then. She walked into a shop with the logo of a dress on it. Inside she found many, many, many rows of dresses, pants, shirts, etc. She picked out some jeans and a medium blue t-shirt. She got a black trench coat, black leather gloves, black, non-tight leather pants, and a white t-shirt with a 'yin-yang' sign on it.

She got one other outfit. It consisted of all the things Sasuke's outfit consisted of (except the jacket!), and a hooded cloak-thing. She had to keep that one...The thing she didn't have was the Uchiha Clan jacket. Satsuki paid and headed back to Sasuke's place. People were just starting to wake up, and not many of them.

"Morning is so boring. Except for the morning itself, just morning life." Satsuki entered Sasuke's house and into her beaded area. She had hung a short rod from the wall to hang clothing from so she wouldn't have to use Sasuke's closet.

She hung her clothing up, even if it wasn't meant to be hung up...like the shirts. Satsuki then went to make Sasuke breakfast. She was just finishing the eggs and putting some toast on a plate when Sasuke walked out.

"Morning Sasuke." she greeted, he stared sleepily at her before finally getting it.

"Oh.. Right.. Hi. I have training with Kakashi and my team today...I have to be there at 7, but Kakashi won't arrive till noon." he yawned, taking his plate and eyeing the food suspiciously.

"I didn't poison it. Actually, I just finished it. Also, it's ok that you have training with your team today. I understand that whole complex. Just, I never had a team. I wasn't here for that, so I'll have to train by myself today." she said with a cheerful tone.

Sasuke eyed her with an amazed look on as he began eating. Why was he surprised? He always trained by himself. So she was a girl, so what? She trained by herself while she traveled right? Yea...that's right, no reason to be surprised. He ate his food and then left to meet Naruto and Sakura. Satsuki climbed onto the roof.

When Sasuke was out of view, Satsuki looked over at all the buildings. She saw their position and size, and sometimes she saw the front door. Satsuki tried to remember the layout of the town. Then she turned to the forest, jumped down, and went to train. While up on the roof she saw that a lot of people were going to meeting places today. So no one would be in the forest.

Preview : Satsuki walked through the forest, not making much noise. It was a nice day. Evil eyes watched from the shadows. A hand motioned towards another man, and then towards Satsuki. Satsuki was oblivious. Then she sensedthe chakra...

I know, short chapters...Sorry about that.
