Night. Broken by tossing and turning; haunted by Tsunade’s voice. Her death sentence for Naruto. 1
“It’s only an information gathering mission.” 2
Toss 3
“Seven children missing in that area, I just want you to investigate the house.” 4
Turn 5
“No sweat Tsunade-baba! You can count on us! Believe it!” 6
Shudder 7
“Humph.” 8
Groan 9
Then the red glare of the clock bore into the darkness. Sasuke blinked. Opening his eyes, he wished there was just one night he wouldn’t be haunted by the blonde. 10
“What Sasuke? Are you afraid?” 11
“Shut up!” Sasuke sobbed, whipping his pillow into the shadows. “Shut up, Dobe.” Sasuke’s weight shifted, he forced himself out of the bed. His feet trudged along the ground; they felt like they were tied to anvils. One hand fell hard on the dresser; his other hand forced open a drawer, his hands shuffled in the papers. His search came up empty; he tried the next drawer. Nothing. He yanked opened the last drawer, again Sasuke came up with nothing. No scissors, no kunai, nothing he could possibly use against himself to stop these night terrors. Nothing that could bring him closer to his departed Kitsune lover. 12
Sasuke’s stomach wrenched at the thought. His body shivered frantically with his shallow breaths. Sinking into the floor Sasuke saw how pathetic he had become. What had happened to the noble thoughts of keeping Naruto’s memory alive? 13
Sasuke took another shallow breath, he was supposed to be the living memorial for Naruto, and now he was reduced to this? Through all his years of torture that had made him the powerful shinobi he was, he still couldn’t withstand the loss of his tragic romance. What had happened to him? Sasuke shook his head, burying his raven locks into his knees. Sasuke sat there cradling himself into the night, oblivious to the creeping draft that had began to chill the room, or the river of tears that streaked across his ashen skin. 14
The door opened, a nurse in the white, flowing uniform walked in. Morning light flooded through the door. The blackness of Sasuke’s haunted sanctuary breached. The nurse knelt down beside Sasuke, he acknowledged her with a wince as she helped him onto the bed. 15
The nurse pursed her lips, her eyes frantic, “D-d-do you want me to call the Doctor for you?” She questioned meekly. The stoic teen, reverting into his silent state nodded in response. 16
Yes. Maybe today would be the day he told Naruto’s story. Maybe today the Doctor’s constant beating of questions had finally broken down Sasuke’s wall. Maybe today, Sasuke mused silently, people will know the death sentence they filed for the blonde. Maybe today, their souls can rot with guilt like his did….like mine does.... 17
