The next morning, Naruto was bright eyed and bushy tailed, but his usual morning grin was nowhere to be found. The idea that Sasuke lied to him was too heavy in his mind to shake, and yet he didn't fully believe it to be true that he had either. Something had stuck in his mind somewhere and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

"Naruto, come on, we're leaving!" Sasuke called as he opened the door. Naruto hastily followed, leaving the cloak from the night before behind. Sasuke eyed him suspiciously.

"What? We're leaving so it's not like I need it anymore!" Naruto said defensivly as he padded from the room huffily. Sasuke turned to follow him, shutting the door on the now empty room. Passing through the crowds of people still celebrating, people scattered as Naruto growled at them in mock aggressiveness, grinning at the different expressions on their faces. As they passed the shrine, one girl stood in their way. Naruto growled at her but she stood firm, unwavering.

"Naruto?" she whispered, tears softly falling onto her cloak as she stretched out her hand and touched his face. Her touch sent bolts of electric through his skin as their flesh connected. Sasuke emerged from behind Naruto, who reeled backwards.

"Sasuke" The girl said flatly as she nodded a curt greeting, to which Sasuke responded likewise, pulling at Naruto to leave. As they made their way past her, Naruto caught a glimpse of bright pink under her hood. His eyes widened as memories shot hrough his head, blinding his darkened eyes with light.

"Naruto, as blind as you may be, even you must be able to piece things together now" Naruto found himself in a darkened room, dank and musty with the smell of water. He'd been here before, he could feel it. Footsteps crossed over to him and a red haired girl with tails and ears not unlike his emerged from the shadows.

"Remember me?" She said coyly. Naruto thought hard, her physique and face were definitly familiar, but he couldn't quite grasp the name.

"Sorry..." he whispered. The girl laughed as she walked over to him and curled her tails around his waist.

"I'm Miki, the nine tailed fox demon" she crooned as she played with her hair.

"Mi-ki...MIKI!" Naruto exclaimed as he remembered everything. Shock showed plainly on his face as he clung to her in happiness.

"Yeah, yeah ok now listen up! I agree that what Sasuke did was wrong, but don't hold it against the guy, you're like his best friend. I just think he didn't want to see you leave. But anyway, you can't let them know you've remembered any of our life, else they'll do the same thing again, understand?" Naruto nodded quickly.

"Im still under some of the sealing effects of that drug so most of my power isn't available at the moment, so any battles of yours will have to stay yours for the time being. See ya"

Sound flooded his ears as the chattering of nervous bystanders looked on at the jinchuriki. Sakura ran after him as he was bodiy dragged away by Sasuke, and it pained him to fake amnesia and run away.

"Go on ahead" Orochimaru rasped as he turned round to face Sakura, "You've attracted too much attention, now move" Sakura stopped in her tracks as Sasuke and Naruto faded from view.

"Konoha WILL get them back, just wait" Sakura threatened as she tightened her stance.

"Go back to your village little girl, I don't want to fight you. You are nothing more than Tsunade's gofer, with her luck and brute strength to match. Too bad she isn't around anymore eh?" He taunted.

Sakura's eyes flamed as she placed all her power behind her fists and flew at Orochimaru.

"Dont be so full of it, BASTARD!"

Sakura's fist hit Orachimaru squarely in the face, his jaw structure crumpling immediately before hanging limply from his face. Sakura grinned in triumph but her grin was wiped away by his, a grin that held so much cruel violence behind it. Orochimaru took hold of his now limp jaw and snapped it back into place, Sakura could hear the grinding as he spat out two teeth that had snapped off.

"Heheh..heh, You'll regret that" he laughed as he slammed his hand to the floor and summoned a Kyoudaija, a giant snake.

Sakura's face fell as the snake rose more than 70ft above her head.

"SHIIIIIT" she whispered as she drew kunai from her back pocket. 'Yeah, like these are gonna be of use. See THIS is why offensive jutsu is useful.'

As much as it pained her to, Sakura had no choice but to turn tail and flee. She had no chance against Orochimaru on her own with next to no offensive justu that could keep her far enough from him and the snake to keep her alive. Seeing her attempt to flee, Orochimaru grinned.

"Nuh-uh, I have a debt to pay back, little brat." He laughed, Kyoudaija lunging at the girl, fangs bared in anticipation of the small snack.

"Sasuke? Who...why...?" Naruto couldn't find the words to make his lies believable, like his whole vocabulary had deserted him in a ditch attempt to make him look incapable of an intelligent conversation.

"It doesn't matter, she's in the past now. I wont let her hurt you again"

Naruto felt the urge to smack Sasuke upside his head. How easily lies slid from his serpentine tongue like a hot knife through butter. Was he even worth bringing back, now he was corrupted and decietful? The blond's ears twitched in suspicion and his tails flicked with ire as Sasuke turned his back.

"Come on, let's go. Orochimaru-sama will be waiting for us by now."

A million thoughts swirled in Naruto's head, most important of all, fight or flight? Did he flee to the safety of the village where he knew he was needed, or did he fight Sasuke, attempt to defeat him and bring him back. Either way Sasuke's trust in him would be lost...

Settling his mind Naruto, for once, made a rational decision. In his confused and emotional state, he was in no position to openly confront Saskuke without causing possibly irreparable damage to one or both of them.

Swiftly, and to the utter confision of the raven shinobi, Naruto fled through the trees, his claws tearing the bark from the branches in his effort to run away from the source of his sorrowful confusion.

It took some seconds before Sasuke had registered Naruto's disappearance, but once he did, Sasuke quicky pursued the blond, his heavy rage filled leaps crushing the bark beneath his feet.

"NARUTO!" Sasuke yelled as loud as he could. There was no guarantee that the blond could even hear him though, as he was so far out of sight.

Naruto had heard him however and, tears pricking his eyes, forced himself to focus on the irony of the situation and keeping the pace of his footfall on the branches before him. Never in his dreams had he once thought that it would be Sasuke chasing him!

Bounding at full speed away from the raven nin, Naruto was soon far enough away to lose all sense of where Sasuke was. The distance between them was so great that he couldn't pick up his scent either. Slowing down as he entered a clearing, the blond knelt down and curled his tails around himself protectively.

Knowing that there was no way anyone could see him, Naruto didn't try to stop the tears rolling down his face and onto the soft, downy fur of his tails, betrayal dealing him a hard blow.

Were all the good memories of him and Sasuke real, based on lies; they were nothing but fantasy created to keep his inner voices placated with false kindness. Fury danced in his eyes as Naruto roared his turmoil, his claws raking the ground, leaving vicious grooves in the dirt.

Sasuke growled in fury; he had been assured by Kabuto that the effects of the serum were permenant. Throwing himself to the floor, his pent up andger released itself in one swift movement as Sasuke brought his fist to connect with the floor in a sickening thud, the ground crumpling underneath it leaving a decent sized dent in the earth.

"I had the bastard...I HAD HIM!"
