Disclaimer: I don't Own Naruto Or Sasuke. Or anybody else in this series!
Note: I decided to put my story near the top of the list, I'd update. And it's sort of different if you noticed... REVIEW! Also, this chapter has been redone. It strays from the orignal plan... Also, the character at the end is an oc from yet another rp that I'm doing.
Sasuke kept on wandering by himself. Instead of going to the Snake Sannin, he had gotten permission from Tsunade to leave. His brother, Itachi, after all, was an S-ranked criminal. He had not kept up with the time, so he did not know how long it had been since the Disaster. But he did realize that he was an adult. Suddenly, the boy had run into somebody, to which he shot at them with a voice of poison, "Watch where you're going!"
The person, now identified as a girl, stood up, rubbing her nose, and she was silent for about two minutes. While she was doing this, he tapped his foot impatiently, waiting for an apology.
"I'm sorry," The girl said at last, although the two's eyes didn't meet at all. She began to walk off.
"LOOK ME IN THE EYE!" He demanded, as he spun her around and grabbed her wrist.
"No!" The girl cried, and rushed off, light on her feet.
He felt he didn't really care about an apology anymore; he just… for some reason wanted the girl to stay around.
He started throwing shuriken at her, to which she dodged every single one.
"Did you take ballet or something?" He commented loudly, but he was surprised as to the girl's sudden light-footedness.
She stopped, out of breath and suddenly a shuriken had hit her. "You got me…" She said. "I'm sorry," she said again, her orange eyes meeting his black.
"I'll accept it… If you race me!" He teased, feeling playful.
"Ready…" She started.
"Set," He continued.
"Go!" They both cried and shot off.
Soon they were neck and neck, when the girl pulled ahead of him, out of breath. "Maybe if he had a length…" She huffed.
"If we did that I would have beaten you!" He said hyperly. "Did you know Uchihas have incredible stamina?"
"Perfect…"
"Well, I'm looking for someplace…" She said, quickly changing the subject.
"Where?" He asked
"I'm looking for the Uchiha mansion,"
"I know where that is! Come with me! I'll take you there…"
Within seconds, the pair had been rushing off on their fast feet.
In a few hours, they stopped for a snack. "We've been at this for hours, and we don't even know each other's name!" She said.
"I'm Sasuke…" He said, reaching out his hand to shake hers.
"What?"
"Shake my hand! Say your name and shake my hand!"
"Re…" She started. "Mizu. Mizu," She lied. "If anybody calls me by who I really am... Them I'm in big trouble! He'll ask me why they called me that... Just like with the other guy..."
"That's a strange name for a girl. But it doesn't suit you. I'll call you… Artemis. Because, there's a sense of darkness emitting from you,"
"Artemis… Goddess of the moon, the hunt and night. How did you think of the name?"
"Well, my great-grandmother was interested in Greek myths and named my grandma Artemis. Then I had a sister whose name was Kadara, but she preferred to be called Artemis, which was her middle name…"
The girl looked up. "Beautiful name really…"
"I can see the gates up ahead," She thought as she continued eating.
Sasuke looked at his new friend. He was a head taller then she was, (They could still be close in age...) and had wavy black hair. ("Could this girl be my twin sister?" Sasuke thought.
She looked at him with dark brown eyes, the color of a tree trunk. She stood up, and dusted off her clothes, a dark pink dress with short sleeves. He said nothing, even how familiar she looked.
They arrived at the gates of Konaha. "I'm from here, and I had Tsunade's permission to leave. But now, I'm back and I brought a guest. I can stay for now. Right?" They nodded, and quickly left them alone.
Artemis walked in first then Sasuke. Sasuke grabbed her by the wrist. "You're Kadara aren't you?"
Artemis took a deep breath. But before she could answer...
