Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto nor do I own it's characters. I make no money with this.

Author's Note: Aaand, another half-assed attempt at humor. O.o This one is a little more Shippuuden-oriented than the rest of my stuff. I made changes to what really happened, of course, but I at least acknowledged some of the recent Shippuuden events (which I usually tend to avoid...). I hope you still like it, 'cause, for whatever reason, I am very proud of this chapter... *scratches head and wonders*

Failure

Sasuke had grown up with the one and only goal of avenging his clan.

He'd been hunting Itachi – or at least planning to do so – ever since the bastard had murdered their entire family, but in the end, Itachi had died with a smile on his bloody lips and Sasuke had been left with the difficult task of completely reorganizing his plans and beliefs, regret, hatred and plain insanity gnawing at him with razor sharp teeth.

He had almost been at the point of no return, he supposed, with his new plan to kill the ones responsible for Itachi's suffering and the Uchiha Massacre, but once again, things hadn't exactly worked out the way he'd planned it. The damn bastards had died of age before he had even managed to get close to killing them and he'd been forced to reconsider yet again – though he wouldn't really complain about that anymore. It had kind of saved his ass, after all.

Naruto laughed all of that off as bad luck, but Sasuke couldn't help but realize that his life up to now could pretty much be summed up in one word: failure. And he didn't like the taste of that one bit. So he'd found himself a new goal: the recreation of his clan. And at first, he'd been pretty fucking proud of himself for finding himself a hobby that did, for a change, not involve fucking himself up by trying to kill people a little too far out of his league.

But then, he had ended up with Naruto's lips on his and Naruto's hands down his pants, and really, all this changing plans and resetting goals was slowly but surely starting to annoy him, because fuck! How the heck was he supposed to revive his damn clan when Naruto was looming over him like the incarnation of doom whenever one of the girls even tried to get close to him!?

Again, Naruto only laughed it off as bad luck, but Sasuke was fairly convinced that his laugh was a tad more smug now than it had been before...
