Sasuke’s fell into the grooves of the chair, as he faced the doctor in silence. His eyes wandered to the windows, to the bookcases, back to the little wrinkles forming around the doctor's eyes and mouth. Sasuke's tongue darted out to wet his lips feverishly. The Doctor rested his chin solemnly upon his over-crossed hands. He knew there was no reason to pester Sasuke; no questions would need to be asked. His reserve was breaking, there was only so long he could hold onto the little seams of the story before it all ripped apart, thread by thread, moment by moment…. 1
A hum reverberated off the walls of the confined as Sasuke started his story…no it wasn't his story, it was both of their stories. His and Naruto's, without either of them, this story, this past would have no life, it would…cease to exist. Sasuke couldn't help but feel he was partly responsible for the anecdote he was about to unfold to the Doctor. 2
The Doctor rummaged in his desk, pulled out a small tape recorder and pushed the little red button at the top. The mechanisms inside whirred slowly as it began to pick up silence and static. "You don't mind, do you Sasuke?" Sasuke narrowed his eyes, seemingly to spite the little device; he continued anyways, he licked his lips again and shifted slightly before beginning. 3
Naruto and I, we had been assigned to a B-class mission, simple, gather information and report bag to that decayed old hag, Tsunade. Given nothing more then an address, Naruto eagerly led the way out of the village. He was restless on our journey, if he wasn't talking, he was whistling, if he wasn't whistling, he was humming, and if wasn't humming he'd be trying to brag about how great he was. Some ninja, anyone would have been able to detect him a mile away. Stupid, stupid, stupid, I still don't know why I love an idiot like that. We had been traveling since early morning, and just now the sun was beginning to set, Tsunade said we should reach our destination just after sun down. I glanced around, nothing but dense forest. Curse the old hag, like hell she'd know. I bet you she's never even been to this house. 4
"Sasuke, I see a mansion! It's HUGE!" Naruto stopped just a head of me, my scowl darkened. Damn I hate it when Tsunade's right. I passed Naruto, bounding out of the foliage behind us. Hm…Naruto was right, the house is huge, and well guarded…? My lips twitched into an upwards grin. 5
Naruto whistled, "Whoo boy! That's gonna take some time to get unlocked. Believe it!" I rolled my eyes. 6
"Just jump it." I ordered. Naruto looked dumfounded. I ignored his ignorance and stupidity and climbed over the fence leaving him behind. 7
"H-hey! Wait up Sasuke!" Naruto called. "Sasuke!" Naruto quickly hopped over the fence and jogged to keep up with me. "Sasuke," He whined. "Why'd you leave me? Don’t you ever think about these things! What if this place was locked for a reason?" He shivered absently. I exhaled deeply, what a moron, afraid of a stupid little house.8
"Why didn’t I take Naruto's fears into consideration?" Sasuke questioned rhetorically. His gaze was heavy and dull. The doctor sighed; his lips twitched unsure which direction to turn. Up into a smile because Sasuke was finally retelling what happened, or down because his words were taking so much out of him, his sorrow so evident on his face and in his soul. 9
Sasuke's gaze seemed so out of focus, staring at something that wasn't there, it almost sounded like, to the doctor, that Sasuke was just watching a show and telling exactly what's happening. It was almost like he was possessed…. 10

The message is varied and....
This is the only chapter for me so far and it's got that home in expressions that human sense of twitching facial expressions that reveal the answers the names like 'Duruta' are great, this story is revealing more than just psychological drama but in parts poetic flow with a dark aspect cool.beginning: 4, language: 5, plot: 3, overall: 8, ending: 4, dialog: 4, characters: 5.
