4 DAYS LATER

4 DAYS LATER

Team 7 were in Narutos room, visiting. One week Tsunade said, he might wake up. Sakura had asked Sasuke about his Sharingan. He showed her his red eyes, making sure not to use any chakra to hurt her. He was explaining how to use it and what different kinda jutsu's he can use.

Sakura was fascinated by it. She asked questions and everything and Sasuke answered. Even Kakashi helped answer a few of them.

Suddenly, they heard an 'Errrrrrmmmm'. They turned to see a stirring Naruto.

"Mmhnn" He moaned again, and he turned his head side to side slowly. Then Narutos eyes opened. The cerulean eyes looked around the room to see where he was. 'Konaha hospital' He thought. He saw the people in the room. Kakashi sensei…..Sakura and….He didn't recognize the other man until his eyes met his. Naruto saw the Sharingan and grabbed his head in pain, remembering what he had seen before.

"AHHHHHHH" Naruto screams. He was struggling against the covers trying to get away from there. "GET AWAY FROM ME!!"

"Sasuke, what did you do!?" Sakura asked, as she looked at Naruto with a concerned look. Sasuke stopped the chakra flow to his eyes, which turned back to onyx.

"I didn't do anything. He must have seen the Sharingan and thought it was Itachi….." He gritted his teeth at the name of his brother.

Naruto was still grabbing his head in pain, screaming at the top of his lungs, as two nurses came in. Tsunade ran into the room and yelled "What's wrong!? What happened!?"

"Naruto started moaning, and getting restless. He looked around the room and saw Sasuke's Sharingan. Sakura had been asking what it was and how to use it so he was explaining, as was I. Then Naruto started grabbing his head in pain and screaming get away from me!" Kakashi quickly summarized. Tsunade nodded and was telling Naruto to calm down. She was so surprised Naruto woke up so soon. She thought at least he'd be out for another week!

Naruto finally calmed down, but his head was still killing him. The painful memories in his head almost looked real.

Naruto, what did you see in that memory?" Kakashi asked him.

"I-I saw everyone important to me…..die by swords, and beatings and explosions. I s-saw Sasuke a-as Orochimaru……purple eyes, and snake like features……AHHHHHHHH!!"

He screamed again, clutching his head. Now that he was awake, Tsunade could help with the pain. She put her hands on his head and concentrated her chakra into her hands. In seconds, the pain was gone. Naruto lay there, totally exhausted on the bed. With clear eyes, he looked around the room again. He smiled when he saw Kakashi and Sakura.

"H-hey guys. How's it going?" Naruto said.

"Naruto!" Sakura cried and hugged him; telling him much she missed him. He hugged her back, telling her the same thing. When she pulled back, Kakashi went over with his famous smiles and said "Nice to have you back, kid."

Naruto nodded and smiled. He turned around to the next person. The person he hadn't seen in over 5 years. His smile was replaced with a solemn look. Kakashi and Sakura we're both thinking the same thing. 'Lets give them some time to talk' They left the room, which left Sasuke and Naruto to themselves.

A few minutes of silence went in between the two, until Naruto spoke up.

"Hey teme," Naruto said, with a smile. Sasuke smirked.

"Hey dobe,"

"So…your back in Konaha. I didn't think you actually were."

"yeah, Sakura Kakashi and Shikamaru came to get me. It was their mission. Sakura almost killed me, with her new strength. I guess she was right when she said you could get stronger in Konaha too……"

"You probably deserved it" Naruto said. Sasuke recalled the convo he and Sakura had had.

"Is, um…Orochimaru…?"

"Yeah, I killed him." This surprised Naruto. He thought Kakashi would have taken care of him.

"Whoa, that must mean your strong……But I'm stronger." Sasuke looked at Naruto and saw the goofy grin on his face.

"Oh yeah dobe? Well I'm the first one your sparing with when you get out of here," Sasuke smirked.

"You better believe it!!" The two of them talked for about 10 mins on only what they've been doing th past 5 years. They told each other about the new jutsu's they learned and training, until the subject of Itachi came up.

"Itachi must have given you hell," Sasuke said, disapprovingly.

Well it sure wasn't heaven, haha. He showed me Kakashi, Sakura, Iruka-sensei, Tsunade and everyone else in the village that was important to me die right in front on me. Everyone being stabbed countless times. Then after what felt like days of that, he showed me you and Orochimaru. You two were talking, and then you screamed in pain, as Orochimaru started the transformation. When you turned around, you had a snake like tongue and purple……eyes. It was the wrost. I felt like I couldn't do anything….." Naruto sais, as he looked at his hands in his lap.

"When Itachi used that on me, he showed me when he was killing my clan. My aunt and Uncle everyone…. The last thing he showed me was my parents laying on top of each other with stab wounds all over and blood everywhere. Itachi was behind them, with a sword that was dripping blood……my parents blood." Sasuke shuddered. Neither of them said anything for a long time. You could see the sun getting lower in the skies. Sasuke stood up, and faced Naruto.

"I'll come by tomorrow after everyone's been here" Sasuke said.

"oOkay!" He said with a huge grin on his face, his hands behind his head.

"Thanks for saving me, by the way…." Sasuke turned around with a half smile

"Anytime bro"
