Chapter two

Lost Memories; Friends and Family

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but I do own Mayume Uchiha.

XOXOXOXO (Mayume's POV)

I woke up in a bed surrounded by unfamiliar, blurry shapes, but they were quickly forgotten as I drifted back and forth from slumber. I can hear voices now. It seems like there is a girl named Sakura, one loud, annoying boy whose name is Naruto, a quiet, calm boy named Sasuke and a man named Kakashi.

"We've been here for such a long time! Why do we have to be here any way? I'm hungry Sakura. Let's go get some ramen!" 'Thunk'! "Shut up Naruto. The girl is still asleep, you're gonna wake her up!" Sakura shouted at the obnoxious boy 'But Naruto is right… why do we have to be here, well at least I'm with Sasuke!' Inner Sakura thought. "But…I'm hungry! Kakashi-sensei…can I please go get some ramen?" Naruto tried to whisper while saying it with enthusiasm.

'sigh' "Here Naruto go downstairs with Sakura and get something to eat. I don't want you guys to wake her up. She was sounded very badly in a battle last night." Kakashi haded Naruto a few coins knowing that he was probably broke.

"Sasuke-kun, would you like to come?" Sakura looked at him pleadingly. "No." Sasuke just looked back out the window and crossed his arms.

'This Sasuke guy is a jerk', I thought, 'but he seems so familiar.'

"I'd rather him stay here with me anyway. I have to talk to him about something." Kakashi just looked back at me with a questioning look in his eye.

Sakura took one last longing look at Sasuke, then you hear the door open and close while two people walk out of the room.

"Now Sasuke… I know that you've probably realized that this girl is an Uchiha from the clan symbol on her shirt. Last night, Iruka and I saw her fighting Itachi, and we got there just in time to save her. We don't know any thing else about her; her name, rank, etc. The Hokage and I had a small chat last night and we decided that since she's from the same clan as you, she will live with you, plus in her present state of weakness, she needs someone strong to protect her." Kakashi told the raven haired boy once he was sure that the other two were gone.

''Who are these people? This boy…Sasuke, and the man…Kakashi. Those names… And this man, Kakashi, said that I was from the same clan as raven hair.' I thought that it was a good time to reveal that I was awake so I stretched and yawned and looked around at the two figures sitting on chairs looking right back at me.

XOXOXOXO (Regular POV)

"Who are you? Where am I?" The girl swung her legs over the side of the bed and sat up to face Sasuke and Kakshi.

"To answer your first question, I'm Hatake Kakashi and this is Uchiha Sasuke and as for your second question, you're in the hospital in Konoha." Kakashi was still thoughtfully looking at her. 'I recognize this girl from somewhere, but where?'

"Oh…'yawn' nice to meet you. I'm Uchiha Mayume." She covered her mouth as she yawned again. 'So she is an Uchiha' Sasuke stared at Mayume with wide eyes than he just got up and left the room without saying anything.

"What's his problem?" You were looking at Kakashi as to get an answer.

"Oh…don't worry about him. He's just a bit confused that's all." 'and probably very surprised' "Ok…The Hokage sent me to just ask you a few questions. What is your ninja rank?"

"Huh? Oh, I'm a Genin." She was still distracted by the look that Sasuke had given her when she had told them her name.

"Come on! I'm trying to start a conversation here! Ok tell me. Since you're an Uchiha and your village was destroyed, where have you been all this time? We all thought that Itachi and Sasuke here were the only two surviving Uchihas!"

"Itachi, please don't remind me of him" Mayume said this in a really hushed voice "He's a bastard. A lying, betraying bastard."

That's when she just broke down and started crying. It surprised her that she had her emotions, because she tended not to show them as it made her seem weaker. Mayume started to calm just as fast as she had started crying and Kakashi was just sitting there, looking at her, not knowing what to do.

'SLAM!'

"That ramen was really good! Thanks Kakashi!" the annoying boy and the desperate girl were back from the ramen house.

"Shut up Naruto and introduce yourself." Sakura turned around to look at Mayume, "Hi my name is Haruno Sakura and this is Uzumaki Naruto."

"It's a pleasure to meet you two. I'm Uchiha Mayume." She said giving the two a pleasant smile.

"Hey where's Sasuke-kun?" Sakura looked around for him but he wasn't there.

"Oh he went out for a walk. Could you both go find him and bring him to the training feild?" Kakashi had taken out his book again and stated to read it.

"Sure! Bye Mayume! Bye Kakashi-sensei." They left and the room got quiet again.

As soon as the door closed, Kakashi started asking her questions about her past… again.

"So…Where were we? Oh yes. You never answered my question. Where did you go after the Uchiha massacre?" Kakashi actually seemed interested in this, so he put his book aside. Mayume wanted to plan this carefully as to not give away to much information.

She hesitated but after a few seconds she stated, "After Itachi destroyed my village, I left to train at the near by village of Konoha where I was taken in by a kind family by the last name of Hatake."

She could tell that he was interested now that you had mentioned his name.

"Did that family, by any chance, have a son that went by the first name of Kakashi?"

Now she remembered why Kakashi's name sounded so familiar. He had been her "older brother" and sensei after she fled Itachi. As the memories came flooding back, she turned wide-eyed to Kakashi and jumped on him and gave him a big hug.

"Kakashi-kun!" Kakashi just hugged her back and he couldn't believe that it was his "little sister". "Mayume-chan is that really you? You've grown so much! Hey I never knew that you were an Uchiha!"

"Ya I am! I never told anyone because I didn't know who were the spies that Itachi had sent. I never thought I'd see you again after I left! I've missed you so much..."

(N/A Well you get the point!)

XOXOXOXO

'I'm so confused. I know I should be happy that she's alive, but I can't help being mad that she only decided to show herself to me after all these years.' Sasuke was walking around outside, trying to take in all that had just happened

when he felt a chakra source behind him. Naruto and Sakura came running out and ran up to Sasuke.

"Kakashi said that we all have to meet at the training field in 2 hours, ok Sasuke? We're free to do what ever we want until then. Hey Sasuke… wanna do something together?" Sasuke just looked at Sakura with a look of disgust. Then he ran off towards the forest.
