Naruto Fan Fiction – Chapter 4

Disclaimer:I DO NOT OWN Naruto or any of the characters included, Masashi Kishimoto does.

I probably should have mentioned this before but POSSIBLE SPOILERS ahead.

Reasons That Made No Sense

Shortly afterwards Iruka had returned to find both of them fast asleep on the table, they had changed into dry clothes before talking themselves to sleep. Not wanting to disturb them Iruka placed a blanket over them before switching out the light.

The next morning Iruka came to pick them up to take them to the academy. Both boys were widely awake as he arrived. Naruto was his usual hyper-active self but Sasuke was more secretive than normal.

"Are you guys ok?" he chuckled as they groaned about neck ache "Well you were soundly asleep I didn't want to wake you"

"I have to do something before class today so you guys go straight to the classroom, same as yesterday Naruto, don't write on the board" Iruka waved them off and proceeded to the staff room.

Naruto walked into the classroom and rummaged through the teachers desk. "Iruka-sensei has kept it" in order to cheer Sasuke up who hadn't smiled properly for ages, he pulled out the doodled paper they had drawn on. Sasuke shrugged he wasn't in the mood.

"Ok what about this!" Rummaging through the desk again he pulled out a pink fluffy diary, it looked like something Sakura would own. "Put it away it's not for us to read" Sasuke took his seat.

Naruto looked slightly downhearted that Sasuke didn't want to do the things that they had always enjoyed doing.

The gang of girls entered the room much to Sasuke's grief. "Sasuke-kun I missed you yesterday"

"What happened to you yesterday? I missed you so much"

"So did I"

"No I did" Great they were arguing over him again. Sasuke stood up and left them watching him disappear out of the door.

"Look you upset him"

"No I didn't." another girl ran into the room passed Sasuke and battled into the midst of the arguing girls. "Hey girls did you hear? The whole Uchiha clan was destroyed yesterday" Stupidly instead of whispering like a tactless person would she yelled it.

Sasuke stopped twenty paces outside the door he'd only been in school for ten seconds and he already felt unable to cope. Naruto was behind him. "Sasuke" The girls had followed Naruto out the room too.

"Aww Sasuke-kun, I'm really sorry if you want a shoulder to cry on" in reply he glared at them all unleashing the powerful Uchiha stare.

"Sasuke? What was that for, you've never done that to us before?"

"Yeah. Well get used to it, I'm fed up of you all worrying about the tiniest of things that don't concern you!"

The girls stared gob-smacked, Sasuke had never glared at them like that nor had he yelled at them with such hate. Sasuke jumped out of the nearest window and vanished from view.

"Sasuke!" They all called after him.

"Leave him alone, you don't understand" Naruto retorted.

Only Naruto followed him out the window.

They had walked over to the shuriken logs where practise usually took place. "Sasuke, wait, what's wrong with you?" back facing Naruto, Sasuke confessed everything.

"Ok fine Naruto you win…I used to be the best student here people think high expectations of me …"

"You still are the best…"

"What are people going to think when everyone hears that it was my brother Itachi who killed them all" he launched a kunai at the log and hit it dead on with fierce accuracy.

"Yes but you aren't your brother are you" he noticed that Sasuke wasn't crying even though they were on a touchy subject.

"Naruto, like you I am going to work hard and be the best that I can be, that means no more crying and no more letting someone else fight for me" launching another kunai he hit the kunai that he had imbedded into the log previously.

"My dream has changed. I'm not going to be part of ANBU, I'm going to be an avenger and I'm going to kill him"

"Why Sasuke! You're not weak and no one will think different of you"

"If I'm not weak then WHY!" he threw a handful of shuriken this time. "Then why didn't I stop him!" he yelled angry at himself.

"He said the reason for killing the clan was to test his capabilities or something like that. It isn't a justified reason! It's an unexplained reason! Just saying to test my capabilities isn't enough!" then he threw all of the ninja tools in his possession which landed with such accuracy in the heart of the log.

"I let him get away with it! He killed everyone, now I'll do the same to him" Sasuke had changed for the worse, either that or he was just overly stressed by the outcome of his short battle with Itachi, Naruto hoped it was because of the latter.

When they returned to the classroom Sasuke was so silent that it was as if he wasn't there. He answered all the questions perfectly when asked and performed all physical tasks with precise accuracy.

As the weeks went by Sasuke continued to act in this manor. He was always ignoring the girls and rarely spoke to anyone other than Naruto.

Often Naruto would stare at Sasuke and wonder. 'Sasuke, what happened to you?' By now Sasuke was living in his own home, mentioning that although he enjoyed staying with Naruto it would be good to be alone for a bit.

This troubled Naruto and so he talked to Iruka about it one afternoon. "Iruka-sensei, Sasuke's been acting weird lately, he talks less and hardly smiles."

"Well, we both know what he is going through"

"He says his brother only did it to test his abilities, and that he is going to kill him"

"Naruto, I wouldn't worry too much, he'll get over it and then it will be as if nothing happened."

"I hope you're right Iruka-sensei" Naruto replied staring at the sunset they had been sat under.

A/N: So this was chapter 4. This story isn't going as well as I expected so I might stop it at the next chapter, should I make it a happy ending?

Reviews and flames are welcomed all the same.
