chapter 11
Sakura ran toward to the place he wanted her to meet. She did not know that Sasuke also went to that place. The only thought that came up in her mind was Naruto. She wanted to know how did he get here. He better had a good explanation for this, or else she would punch
him. She want to confess her feelings for him, but she just can't. She can't say it, because she still did not prepare for this yet. She just need time.
'Finally…I meet you once again. I'm so happy.' she thought.
There she was. Their training ground, when they were kids. The place that they always played and trained. She waited for him. She noticed that someone was behind the tree. She grabbed her kunais in her pocket, ready to fight.
"Hey, Sakura." Sasuke said. He also waited here for a while now.
Sakura keep her kunais away. Suddenly Naruto appeared infront of them. He was just like his father— yellow flash.
"Hello, Nii-san and Haruno-chan."
They ran to him and hugged him. Sakura was crying and Sasuke, who was now shaking and tears falling down. Tears of happiness. Naruto just comfort them. He let them sat on the ground. His body was now soak, because of the tears.
"Haha..you both make me soak." Naruto said.
"Sorry..."
"Naruto, how did you get here?" Sasuke asked. As a brother, he wanted to show everyone that he was a great brother, friend, and also a ninja. He wanted to gain respect just Naruto. But he just being so far away from him— not knowing the painful.
"Well….I did not meet my parents or anyone. I met only the Sage and his two beloved sons."
"Why did you see them?" Sakura asked.
"I don't know." he said but Sakura knew that he knew something, something he does not want to tell.
Naruto noticed something. He saw Sakura and Sasuke shivering from the cold. They wear only kimonos, so it was freezing for them. He then created a small fire. The fire covered their body. They felt warm.
"So you saw us shivering, just as I thought." Sasuke said.
"He he, I known you both for so long. How could I not noticed it. I still did not answer the question. I will explain it, but I need you both to touch my hands." Naruto said as he lend his hands.
"Okay, but trying not to do stupid things…" Sakura said.
"…." Sasuke stayed silence.
They both touch his hands. He just disappeared in a yellow flash. They opened their eyes again. They knew that they were here before.
"Naruto…Isn't this place…where you talked to us last time? Before you disappeared." Sakura said. The memories sure still haunt them. It was such a horrible scene.
'Don't you dare…Don't you dare leave me….'
'I want…to see your…smile…'
She gasped. The fear about losing him again. If that happen, she would cry and cry. She can't live without him. She shook her head.
'Just forget about that event. It was too much. Just smile— smile for him. The confession…aaarrrrggg what is this all about. So many thoughts.'
"Is there something wrong, Haruno-chan?" He asked her.
"Everything's okay, Naruto. Just thinking about…that event…" She said but Naruto walked to her, and grabbed both of her shoulders. He lifted her chin up, and to stared into her eyes.
"Look, Haruno-chan. It's not your fault that I'm dead. It was my decision really. Don't think or blame yourself for this. You too, nii-san. I've done that to protected the world— the ninja world. I want to see everyone's happy, smiling, and acting such childish. So please…think of what I'm saying right now. Don't blame….Please do this for me…"
"Naruto..It's hard to be happy...I can't live without you." Sakura said.
Both of them stared into his eyes, knowing that he was serious. He did not want them or anyone to be sad. Just because of his sacrifice. They laid down on the ground. They started to talked. But now Naruto was still keeping his secret— secret that they still don't know.
'Should I tell them? Maybe other time…if I still have chances.' he thought.
'At Konoha'
All the children played with the flowers that were falling from the sky. They were happy. Only for one child. Konohamaru. He was still depressed of the shocked and still recovering.
'So you are still here with us. Why am I all alone. Naruto nii-chan. Please come back. Back to everyone.'
Asuma patted his head. He turned around and his eyes were starting to watering. The tears started to falling down his cheeks. Asuma embrace him. He was alive. Naruto revived everyone that had died. Some of people like Jiraiya, Dan, Nawaki, did not want to come back. Because it might change the history.
'At Kakashi's place'
Kakashi sat there at the team 7 old training ground. He stared at the log, the log that Naruto once tied with it. He was a ninja so he did not want to show emotion infront of anyone. But now he was alone. He let the tears fall. He noticed the flowers.
"Ah…Cherry blossoms, represent Sakura. It's really you, Naruto. The one who love Sakura the most. Even in death, you still watching over us."
It was such peace. So comfortable. He let himself drift off into a nap. He rest against a tree. He cry until the tears dried out.
'At Minato and others' place'
"Why are you here?"
The man slowly walked. The man slowly showed himself. They were Ashura, Indra, and the Sage.
"I'm here for an explanation."
"Just start the explanation!" Kushina shouted.
"Please calm down, Kushina." Mikoto said.
"Where is our son?" Fugaku asked.
"Your son, Naruto is in the village right now. He needed to talk to them for a little bit. Then he will be back. But..."
They confused and let the Sage explained. They gasped. Kushina almost faint. Minato shook the sage, and shouted.
"Lord sage! Please take me to him now!"
"..."
'Back to Naruto'
They laughed and tears of happiness just rolling down. Sasuke asked him one question. Then from funny turned into serious.
"Why are you here?"
Naruto laid there. He silent. But Sakura shook him and started to worry. He did not speak anything. He said only one word.
"Dead"
Then everything started to turned black for him. Naruto was drifted off to unconsciousness. His body was shaking, and some of the place were bleeding. They worried, Sakura started to heal him. But something blocking her chakra.
"Naruto!"
'No...not again...please...'
