"talking"
'thinking'
-FF/Change POV-
Sakura sighed, and walked to the training grounds. She kneeled at the stone, and set her hand on it. She wiped tears away from her face. It wasn't fair. She had lost Sasuke, when he had left to join Orochimarou, so he could be stronger. That had hurt, and she hadn't stopped crying. Then, then Naruto had promised to bring Sasuke back, and she found a little hope. Naruto left, time, and time again... the last time he left... he never came back. Now she was alone, and it wasn't fair. She shouldn't have accepted Naruto's promise. She should've told him not to be stupid... but it was too late now. She sighed, and got up.
"Sakura..." A voice said behind her. Sakura turned around and gaped. Standing next to a tree, was Sasuke Uchiha. Sakura's knees buckled and she dropped. "S-sasuke... Is it really you?" She asked, still shocked. Sasuke nodded. Sakura jumped up and threw her arms around him. "SASUKE!"

Naruto woke up and made a face. "Stupid dream." He through off his blankets, and tossed off his pj's. He put on a plain pair of black shorts with a couple of chains hanging from belt loops, and a loose black shirt. He smoothed his chin-length blond hair down. He had stopped spiking his hair a long time ago, it now hung down loosely. He yawned and walked out his bedroom door. He knocked on the door opposite of his. "Yo, wake up! It's morning." A thump on the door informed him that the person in there was awake. He chuckled and walked around, knocking on the doors of the late risers.
"Naruto! Stop doing that, let them sleep." A woman's voice echoed through the house.
"Gah, Dude you're louder than he was!" A male's voice shouted.
"Shut up Howaido!" The woman snapped. Howaido laughed. Naruto shook his head, and walked into the main room. A tall woman with short, blond hair, similar to his, just a little longer, sat in the kitchen cooking. She wore long white pants, with a sky blue ribbon on the pant bottom. There was also a sky blue sash tied around her waste. She wore a pretty white tank top, with long sleves on her arms tied there with more blue ribbon. She had a blue bow on her neck.
"Morning, Naz." Naruto said, sitting on a nearby stool. He flinched as a pair of socks collided with the back of his head.
"You ass, you woke me up." A girl growled. Naruto turned around and grinned. The girl was about the same height he was, with arm length blond hair, and the facial features he had. She wore a loose, pretty sky blue top, tied right below her bust line with a dark blue sash. She wore a pair of short, dark blue shorts, and her hair was tied back with another dark blue ribbon. She looked like his sexy no jutsu, but clothed. Naruto chuckled. "Hey Nayra." He said, still smiling. Nayra made a face.
"You're so mean to your sister, Naruto." Nayra said. Naza laughed. "He's mean to the both of us, Nay." she said, tossing her sister a muffin.
"Well, at any case, Ha! I got a muffin and you didn't!" She said, teasing. She sat on a couch and started picking at her muffin. Naruto grinned. A tall guy with white hair spiked out in every direction ( think Cloud, but more spikes) walked in, pulling his plain tan tank on. His equally plain dark brown cargo shorts jingled with what was probably a bunch of loose shuriken in a pocket. He smoothed back his hair (as much as he could. which wasn't much.) and grinned. His brown eyes sprinkled with mirth. "Morning. Thanks for the wake-up knock Naruto. It prepared me for Naza." He said, chuckling.
Naza scowled. "Oh, shut up Howaido. No muffin for you." Naza said, giving Naruto a bowl of ramen. Naruto laughed and dug right in. Howaido pouted. "This is why I don't go for older women. they're mean." He said. Then Howadio winked at Naruto. "But I do go for younger guys. " Naruto made a face. "Unwanted, Howadio. Unwanted." He said. Howadio pouted. "Now I'm heartbroken and hungry." Naza threw a muffin at Howadio. He caught it and grinned at Nayra. "That's one problem fixed, want to fix the other?" He said, sitting down on the couch opposite of where Nayra was. Nayra took a bite of muffin. "I'm into Akatsuki men." She said. Naruto twitched. "Can you go one day without talking about how you think Itachi is sexy?" Nayra shook her head. "nope."
"... Then can you do it when I'm not around? I don't need to hear your rants about how sexy my cousin is." A girl's voice said. Naruto immidiently turned around and smiled. A girl with pitch-black hair, darker than midnight, pinned up in a pony tail, and then tied again with a dark black bow. She wore a plain dark black tank that revealed her mid-driff, chains criss-crossing on her waist with a black fishnet shirt under-neath. She wore a silver chain with a rose charm on it. She wore a plain grey pair of cargo shorts, with chains on them, similar to Naruto. She was about the same height as Nayra, but her hair was much longer. Her dark blue eyes seemed to pierce into whoever she was looking at, seeing as her expression was always serious, and didn't reveal much emotion. She walked over and sat next to Naruto, her step was smooth and elegant. Nayra stuck her tounge out at the girl. "Not my fault that he is."
Naruto shook his head and smiled. "Hey, Linaru." he said. Linaru looked at him, and her eyes smiled slightly. "Hello Naruto." She said. Naruto grinned. His best friend, throughout his life, that had escaped the massacre, and founded her out group. She was the best Uchiha, no matter what anyone said about the topic. He pushed the chair next to him out for her. She sat in it and grabbed a muffin. "So, what nonsense is already going on?" She asked. Naza tossed a couple of scrolls at her. Linaru unrolled one and started reading. Nayra yawned. "Anything good? I'm bored." Linaru tossed one at her. "Wanna steal something?" Nayra caught it. "Sure. Wanna go with, Howaido? We can discuss Itachi and tight shirts." Howaido nodded. "Cool." Linaru pretended to gag. Naruto laughed. Linaru continued looking at the scrolls. "hmm. Naza, you can deal with this, it's a tracker mission. Naruto, you and I can take this assasination if you want. " She said. Naza nodded and took the scroll. Naruto smiled. "Sure." He said. Naza raised her eyebrows, and exchanged eye messages with Nayra. Nayra nodded. Linaru glared. Naruto sat confused.
"Better get ready, Naru." Linaru said, walking to her room. Naruto watched her until she closed the hall door. Nayra laughed. "I'm not the only one who likes Uchiha!" Naruto chucked a kunai at his sister, who dodged and ran to her room. Howaido walked to his. Naza smiled at Naruto. " I think it's sweet. After all, you've known eachother since you were four, right?" Naruto nodded. "Yep..." Naza left it there, smiling to herself.
--Konoha--
Sasuke stared at the ramen in front of him. He could remember, three years ago, he, Sakura, Kakashi, and Naruto, would all meet here and eat ramen. But then, he had left the village, in a quest for power. Well, that had gone badly, and now he was back. Only thing was, Naruto wasn't. He had been missing for three years. Sasuke sighed and pushed the ramen away. At first he was angry at Naruto for going after him, Sakura for letting Naruto, and himself for leaving in the first place. Then he realized that no matter how angry he got, he still wouldn't get his best friend back. He looked over at Kakashi, who was ignoring him. Sakura looked over at him. "Thinking about him again?" Sasuke shook his head. "No..." Sakura stared at him. She knew when he was lying. Sasuke stood up and left. Sakura sighed.
Sasuke sat at the training grounds in a tree, remembing how he was returned to Konoha. He had been trying to get away from Oto, but without much luck. Orochimarou sent the sound four, as well as nearly the entire Oto group after him. He couldn't fight anymore, so he just ran, hoping for help. That's when a group of about ten, mabey eight ninja, dressed in all white hooded cloaks, and white masks appeared. The started fighting the sound nin, giving him the chance to rest on a tree branch. The formed a wall between him and the nin, making him belief that they were protecting him. There was no other reason for their actions. Sasuke watched the mysterious nin fight to protect him. A sound nin broke through their barrier, and threw a kunai at him. He dodged, but fell off the branch. One of the mysterious nin caught him, and helped him up. He had felt a shock run through his entire body when her hand, soft and smooth as silk, delicate and gentle, caught his hand. He found himself unable to move. The nin set him against the tree, and returned to the fight. He couldn't forget that night, because he couldn't forget that girl. He hadn't even seen her face, he had just touched her hand. He constantly shook his head at himself for liking someone to such an extent for such a stupid reason. He sat down and looked at the sky. 'Damn this whole thing...'
