Is Sui-chan dead? D: omg!

DISCLAIMER: I don't claim Naruto as mine, understand?


Sasuke kneeled there, unmoving, looking at Suigetsu's pale face. He still had the slightest grin on his face, while his eyes were shut. Sasuke realized his arms were trembling, and he felt a tear slide down his cheek. He remembered an event that Naruto and Sakura had explained to him:

A light shade of mist covered the area. Loud footsteps echoed over the surface of the cold water, as a pink haired girl scurried along, dragging an old man by the hand with her. She had a face of concern on her face, and she didn't notice the blonde boy in an orange jumpsuit standing alone as she passed him.

She ran over to a body on the stone floor of the bridge, which had several needles impaling it. She slowed to a walk as she approached it, letting go of the old man's hand. The body had black hair and a pale face, which had a few cuts and bruises on it. He wore a blue shirt with a high collar and gray shorts.

"...Sasuke-kun." the girl's face was filled with shock as she stared at the body. She put a hand to his cheek and felt the ice-coldness of it.

"He's cold...so this isn't an illusion is it?" her face faded from shock to sorrow. Her lips trembled and she knelt beside the body. The old man behind her saddened at the sight.

"You know, just because I am here doesn't mean you can't let your feeling out." he bit his lip. "You can cry if you wish."

"I was always the top of my class at the academy." the girl whispered. The old man looked at her, confused. "I always did my best on the tests. I remember a question asking what the 25th clause of shinobi how-to was..." her voice began to tremble. "It is...t-that..." tears flowed down her face. "a s-shinobi mustn't s-show emotion in any s-s-situation!" she clutched her hands tightly into fists at her side. "A s-shinobi must put the mission as first p-priority and leave any f-fallen comrades be!" She collapsed over the body and began to sob hysterically.

The old man shook his head. "This rule of shinobi...It's too harsh." the girl's sobs echoed throughout the area. She was clutching the body tightly and was wetting the shirt with her tears.

"Sasuke-kun!" she screeched. "Sasuke-kun! SASUKE-KUN!" the blonde behind them clutched his stomach as he shut his eyes, tears dripped from them. He had witnessed the death first hand. Sasuke had died in his arms. If he had only been stronger, he could've saved him.

"...Sasuke." he fell to his knees and looked up at the sky. "Sasuke..."

"Are you enjoying your trip down memory lane?" Sasuke snapped out of the memory and glanced up at the roof of a building, seeing Kimimaro looking at him. The Uchiha scowled and looked at the flames beside him, seeing only a few scattered bones and the robe. A bone clone.

"You have no need to mourn." Kimimaro continued. "You must understand that the trash of this world will perish before those who have true worth." Sasuke made a face of anger and leapt from his position beside Suigetsu, his katana crashing against Kimimaro's chest. There was a shallow wound, as the sword had hit the suit of bone armour underneath the skin.

"SHUT UP!" Sasuke screamed. "Who are YOU to judge who is trash and who has worth?" Kimimaro's face was emotionless. Sasuke felt his hot tears fall down his face. He had lost his entire composture.

"I do not decide that." Kimimaro stated. "Orochimaru-sama is-" Sasuke swept his hand off the handle of the katana to punch the silver-haired man across the face.

"Don't you dare mention Orochimaru in front of me." Sasuke muttered threateningly. Kimimaro was unaffected by the Uchiha's actions and words.

"Whether you know or not, I have heard about you, Sasuke." Kimimaro said quietly. "Itachi killed your family. You found your purpose in life to avenge the ones you love." he rose his hand to point at Suigetsu's body. "If your purpose in life is to avenge them, why do you feel for him? Why do you waste time on him?"

Sasuke was silent. His hair fell in his face as he looked over at Suigetsu, who was laying in the pool of blood. His grin had disappeared.

"...Do you want to know something?" Sasuke asked. Kimimaro looked at him inquisitively. "Do you want to know why I waste time on him?" Sasuke looked the Kaguya in his green eyes. "Yes, I want to avenge the ones I love..." He lifted his katana and positioned the tip in front of Kimimaro's face. Electricity began channeling through the blade.

"I want to avenge those I love, so I'm going to avenge Suigetsu." He thrusted the sword forward.

"ART IS A BLAST!"

The ground rumbled violently. Both teens turned to see a small figure of clay explode, causing a gigantic ball of fire to erupt and engulf an entire section of the village. Clouds of dust and wind blew from the direction of the blast and almost knocked the two of them off the building. The light of the explosion illuminated both of their faces.

As the smoke cleared, a giant blanket of sand was covering the area where the explosion happened. Sasuke looked up to see Gaara in a ball of sand in the sky with Deidara on his clay bird. He couldn't tell, but it looked like Deidara was missing an arm.

"Well then, Sasuke." the Uchiha's attention turned back to Kimimaro. "I think i'll be going now. We may meet again." before the raven-hiared teen could do anything, Kimimaro had turned into a pile of bones. The real Kimimaro was nowhere in sight.

Within the next second, Sasuke heard a few faint words, followed by an explosion.

"Katsu!"

The ball of sand Gaara was in exploded. The redhead fell from his shelter and landed in the tail of Deidara's bird. Gaara had lost.

Sasuke descended off the roof and landed next to Suigetsu. He took the teen up in his arms and began jumping from building top to building top towards Deidara. A few ballistae with exploding tags on them shot up in the sky, missing the blonde by a few feet. Apparently, Suna was attempting to get their Kazekage back.

As Sasuke approached the center of the village, mixed cries of "Oh the Kazekage!" and "Stop him!" filled the air. There was confusion everywhere, with sand shinobi rushing through the streets and citizens running around like headless chickens. Sasuke ran into the Kazekage Mansion and looked around. Officials and ninja were scurrying everywhere.

"It's him!" Sasuke suddenly remembered that only a while ago he had burst in with Suigetsu killing anyone in sight. Now that he had returned with a bloodied Suigetsu in his arms, the shinobi attempted to attack him.

"Damnit." Sasuke muttered under his breath as he kicked a jounin in the stomach, causing him to crash into some approaching anbu. Sasuke hopped on the secretary's desk and jumped past the ninja to the other aisle. He rushed past many people, looking over the doors for one with a plaque that said 'medical ninja' or something like that.

He felt Suigetsu's coldness on his fingers. He couldn't help but think that maybe, the teen wasn't dead. That maybe he was in a coma or very unconscious from the overwhelming shock combined with the wound.

Finally, he found a door that said 'Medical Ninjutsu Department.' and kicked it open. There was only one person in the room, an old woman, who was sitting quietly and watching Deidara in the sky from the window. Sasuke shut the door and walked up to the woman, his katana drawn with one hand while holding Suigetsu to his chest with the other.

"Uchiha Sasuke, I presume?" the woman spoke, getting off her chair turning to face Sasuke. She was wrinkly and wore her gray hair in a bun, while letting the rest of it lay at the sides of her face. There was a brown spot on her left cheek.

"Yeah." Sasuke answered. "And i'll be needing you to come with me." he demanded. She walked past him towards the door. Sasuke followed here, with his sword to her back. He wouldn't enjoy killing someone so old, but if he had to, he would.

Her hand fell on the doorknob. Sasuke readied himself.

She locked it.

The loud footsteps of the jounin and anbu sounded past them. The woman turned to face the confused Sasuke. Her stern face turned into a small smile, and then she burst our laughing.

"HAHAHA!" her cackling hurt Sasuke's ears. She stopped laughing and looked at him with a smile on her face. She pushed his sword down with her outstretched hand.

"Child, forgive me. It's just comical that you thought you could take me hostage, hehe!" Sasuke's eyebrows furrowed. The lady chuckled. "To make things clear, the Kazekage had already told me about you two. My name is Chiyo. I am one of the Elders of Sunagakure."

She walked up the Sasuke, looking into his eyes. "The sharingan, eh? I haven't seen one ever since the war..." She looked down at Suigetsu, who was hanging in Sasuke's arm. "And this? This must be the upstart who was with you when you broke into this mansion. I assume you want me to attempt to heal him?" Sasuke nodded, deciding to let things play out and see what happens.

Chiyo took Suigetsu from Sasuke's arms and laid him on a stretcher. She reached into her medical kit and, after feeling around in it for a moment, took out two green pills. After dropping the two of them in Suigetsu's mouth, she checked his neck for a pulse. The woman smirked.

"Looks like the boy's alive." Sasuke's eyes widened. He rushed over to her side and looked at Suigetsu. The silver-haired teen was wheezing very quietly and his chest rose and fell ever so slightly. "He looked like he was in a coma when you first came in. Now that i've given him some chakra pills he has now transfered into a deep sleep. Once i've healed his wound I can wake him up."

Sasuke breathed a sigh of relief. He walked over to the window and saw the small dot on the horizon that was Deidara. Suna's Kazekage had been kidnapped. What would they do now?

"Before you arrived, we here at Suna were informed that you and your friend are missing nin." Sasuke turned to look at her, waiting for a reaction. "While it may cause war to aid missing nin of other villages, Gaara has given me the duty of clearing your names in this village." Sasuke looked surprised. Chiyo turned to look at him, smiling.

"But now, since the Kazekage has been kidnapped, I may also have to add a rescue mission with you two to the agenda."
