Chapter 4 - "Teme Huh? Yup, That's Me!"

"Naruto…who am I?"

Silence

"I…I'm…not sure."

At this point Sasukes heart felt like it was being squeezed to death. Which was weird as the rest of his body felt strangely numb. He felt detached from his body except for that one part which felt like it was suffocating his very soul.

"Should I know you?"

Naruto's clear crystal voice cut through his pain, his numbness, his heart.

"All the evidence points to someone practising human experimentation and using Naruto as their guinea pig. We've seen this before at Orochimaru's. The experiments alter certain points of the brain which affect emotions, personality and on certain occasions...memory."

This is only temporary. This is only temporary. This is only temporary. Sasuke repeated this same sentence over and over again like a mantra. It's wasn't a possiblity, it wasn't just a chance, It was reality. This is only temporary.

"Yeah, you should." Sasuke turned round to the blond with his old patronizing smirk plastered across his face. "I'm your friend."

Once again Naruto cocked his head. "My friend?"

"Yeah dobe I'm your friend," Sasuke repeated, saying the last three words slowly as if talking to a deaf or retarded person. A strange expression flitted through the blonds face for a second. It was a very cute, slightly angry pout, which almost reminded Sasuke of the old Naruto. But he then adverted those crystal blue cerulean eyes to the ground.

"Friends don't insult each other," Naruto said quietly.

"Yeah they do, when they've known each other long enough." Sasuke smirked. He was on a high now. He could sense Naruto was going to get better in no time. And his high carried him into saying things he would smack himself for later, though of course, never regret. "They also protect each other. So if anyone else bothers you, just come and tell me and I'll sort them out."

Naruto looked at him again. His head cocked and eyes glowing with innocent curiosity.

"Sort them out?"

"Yeah" Sasuke said still smirking. If he just treated Naruto how he used to maybe it would trigger something in his memory. "Now come on, dobe. Lets get back to camp - I've still got Suigetsu to deal with."

Naruto just looked at him as if he had gone crazy. Which of course he had. Sasuke was crazily plotting evils things that would make Suigetsu suffer for the rest of his living days. After all who was more obsessed with plotting revenge than and avenger…right?

"Ya know, I like the idea of having a friend," Naruto began, drawing Sasuke out of his self induced craziness, "but could you not call me dobe…it….well…it just seems….I dunno…rude." Naruto finally finished, adverting his head to the side with a defiant pout on his face.

Sasuke simply smirked again before turning away and walking towards the camp.

"Whatever you say, dobe."

What was he thinking. Naruto was to stubborn to stay that innocent forever.

The still pouting jet slightly unsure blonde slowly began following after him then muttered one word that Sasuke keen ninja's skills managed to pick up on.

"Teme."

As soon as that word reached his ears Sasuke stopped dead in his tracks and spun around to face the blonde who was by no means unsurprised. The blond wide, shocked eyes slowly lowered to the ground looking pretty guilty when he figured out Sasuke had heard what he had said. He began fiddling with his hand, his cheeks dusted with a light blush, bangs covering his face.

Sasuke just stared at the blonde for a couple of minutes also slightly wide eyed. He was fairly confident that he could get Naruto back to normal pretty quickly but at the rate this was going Naruto would be screaming at him again like usual this time tomorrow. Once again pasting that over-confident smirk to his face Sasuke began walking.

"Teme huh?!," he let out a small chuckle. "Yup, that's me!"

Naruto again continued after his so called friend, wondering if he really was friends with this psychopath.

xXx~xXx~xXx

"Where have you been!" Karin screamed as Suigetsu entered the camp.

"Nowhere that concerns you!" The grey haired man spat back. He tried to make his way into the tent but unfortunately for him he was blocked by the brick wall that was Juugo.

Said brick wall narrowed his eyes at the water man before grabbing him roughly by the collar.

"What - Did - You - Do - To - Him?!"

Suigetsu instinctively grabbed the arm that was pulling him inches of the ground and smirked like the cocky arsehole that he was.

"Do what to who?"

WHAM

Juugo's fist connected with the side of Suigetsu's face with a resounding crack and he was sent flying into a tree.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU FUCKING ON!!!" Suigetsu screamed at the exact wrong moment as he failed to notice Juugo move right next to him and bring a heavy foot down on the water mans splayed arm before he could even dissolve into water. (I'm assuming this is wht he generally does - if anyone has more info on Suigetsu could you pleeeeeeeaaaase tell me - I havn't got much to work with here O.O) The sound of his arm cracking was drowned out by the howl of pain that erupted from Suigetsu's throat.

"Juugo stop it!" Karin also screamed, trying to be heard of Suigetsu who was also screaming. You'd think as a ninja the guy would have a higher tolerance for pain but…apparently not.

Juugo, who was still standing on Suigetsu now obviously broken and slightly mutilated arm cocked his head towards the screaming girl.

"Why should I?"

"Yeah Karin!" Suigetsu gasped. "Tell him why he shouldn't act like a complete psychopath!"

"Juugo, you shouldn't act like a complete psychopath because then I'll have to waste my valuable chakra healing him."

"True"

"Hey that doesn't sound like your defending me!"

"THAT'S BECAUSE IM NOT!"

While the other two continued to scream obscenities at each other Juugo was thinking about how he could get something out of this deal.

"Okay," he said and the attention of both of his other team mates snapped back to him instantly.

"I'll stop hurting Suigetsu if…."he cocked his head at Karin. "You give back Sasuke's shirt."

Karin just looked at her team mate with an expressionless face that could rival there certain raven haired leader.

"Hurt him, mutilate him, kill, do what ever you want with him." She deadpanned.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT! YOU TRAITOROUS LITTLE WHORE! YOU WAIT TILL I GET MY HANDS ON YOU!"

"Who's killing who?" Sasuke's silky voice said has he and Naruto -who was standing far to close behind him for his liking- entered the campsite.

"Sasuke-kun!!!" Karin screeched! "Well Suigetsu is going to kill Juugo cos he's such an arsehole!"

Sasuke was such in a good mood about this recent development that he didn't even care that the demented fan-girl had once again attached herself to his arm.

Naruto simply surveyed the scene with wide eyes until they came to rest on Suigetsu and his somewhat mangled arm and he, when he instinctively clutched to the back of Sasuke shirt.

Sasuke smirked as he turned to address Juugo. His day was just getting better and better.

"Well I was going to boil him alive (LOL thanks legacy! ^.^) but you hurting/mutilating/killing him seems like a lot nicer option."

Suigetsu gulped up at his team mates who were smirking down at him pretty evily.

"Damn that fucking Uchiha!"
