Here goes next chapter, hope you enjoy and once again thank you Squibakou for her wonderful beta-ing. This chapter is quite short so I'm sorry about that too and this was written so soon because I gave up doing my english homework (I hate the Merchant of Venice), anyway here's the story.
DISCLAIMER-I DO NOT OWN NARUT, if I did Sakura's hair would be blond and I'll give Gaara a lot of candy
Why is Itachi here? Naruto, is it that… the Akatsuki are using the tail beast to attack the village. They can't… they won't… why now? Why not two years ago when you just died?
"Sakura, you have the same expression as the time we killed Naruto," smirked Itachi.
"Why are you here?"
I'm trembling, why isn't anyone here to stop me shiver, why is it, at this moment, Naruto, you are not in my mind? Why is it him?
"You know very well why I'm here."
"You going to destroy this village. I know this, but why this one last?"
"No reason."
"Why are you here, shouldn't you be with the other Akatsuki?"
"I had to finish a job," he grinned.
I see my death has arrived, and I'm happy- even if it means dying at my enemy's hand.
"Me?"
"You're more intelligent than I suspected."
I can finally come to you, Naruto. All our friends won't have to worry about me anymore, truly, I am happy.
"Kill me, now Itachi."
I close my eyes, I'm eager for death to arrive, two years, and it has finally arrived.
I felt something fall on my cheek, like water, but thicker. I opened my eyes and I was covered in blood. But not mine, Sasuke's.
When I opened my eyes, it was to a horrible sight: Sasuke in front of me with a dagger in his shoulder. I slowly staggered backwards, the sight burning like fire in my mind, forever etched, and unforgettable.
I heard them scream at each other, and I watch for a moment as they fight. Blood dripped from the wounds they had already inflicted apon each other. The memory of your death flashed through my head at that moment, the puddle of blood that surrounded me as you died in my arms.
"Itachi, leave Sakura alone!"
"Looks like my little brother has fallen in love," Itachi sneered.
"Just… leave her alone."
I don't want to listen to their words, I can hear everything: the sound of Sasuke running towards Itachi, a knife stabbing soft flesh, another dagger… I can't stand it anymore.
Why am I standing here watching? So useless.
I must help him.
All I can see is blood, blood all over the place. The memories I tried so hard to forget are paralysing me.
No… I must help him.
"Sasuke…"
I turned around to see Itachi lying on the ground, blood pooling around him and Sasuke standing there, staring into space.
I stared at Itachi's body, he was not breathing, did Sasuke just kill him? Then, from the corner of my eye I can see Sasuke, gasping for air, and suddenly collapsing.
"SASUKE!!!"
