Ok so I had the outline for this after the last chapter which is why this is so quick. Its longer that I had thought it would be but that's a good thing. Writing this almost made me cry, and its one of the few chapters I'm really proud of. Please let me know what you think.
Naruto POV
I was close. I could feel it. Sasuke was only a few feet from me now. The vines where doing their best to keep me from them but my chakra was poison to them.
They could do nothing to stop me now.
At last I spot him in the trees. He looks much the same as when I last saw him. He is hanging from the vines, one hooked around his neck and tangled with others to make sure he doesn't get away alive.
But the vines don't know that this time I can simply burn them. With Sasuke's soul baring my mark, my chakra will no longer harm him. With his mind awake to the world he's in, he wont stay asleep when I free him this time.
With a quick burst of red chakra the vines around him screeched as they burned away from him. I caught him easily, covering his sky-clad form in my long cape. Turning I ran to where my clone had taken Orochimaru. It was a safe place where I had buried the seed. Soon a large white flower would bloom near the head vine killing the roots.
The safest place for us it there, where the vines can't hurt us as they die. I realize all to soon Sasuke is stirring. He is waking up much faster than I thought. I don't really want him to see me.
Using my chakra had taken its tole on the seal and its crumbling now, the marks on my face a deeper black, my eyes turning into slits, and my nails sharping showing the extent of the cracks within it.
We make it to the place with only a few precious seconds to spare.
The vines make one last effort to live. Throwing themselves at the base of the large flower, dragging it to the ground. But the pollen is in the air now, the red haze choking the air. I could tell Orochimaru can't breath right, and nether can Sasuke.
I can hear them both coughing. Sasuke is wake now standing next to me, leaning on me. He has put his arms through he sleeves of my cape, and I'm surprised momentarily by how big it is on him.
Taking his hand me and my clone begin to lead them to the surrounding forest. It should be safe for them there. Sasuke quickly gets his equilibrium back and is now running slightly ahead of me. He was always the faster runner, even with the air so thick with pollen.
I can scenes the vines reading for a last ditch effort, but I'm not worried. The smaller white flowers around us will keep them from getting out. They will all die here today.
Running flat out as we are it takes us only a minute or two to make it to the clearing. Finally we can see the others standing in the trees waiting for us. I feel the vines reaching for us, and I know before the rest what will happen next. What will have to happen next if I am to have any kind of peace in my life after today.
Sasuke POV.
I can only vaguely see the people waiting for us in the trees. The pollen making it hard to see. Suddenly I hear Sakura's voice ringing across the clearing. I turn to see what she sees but its too late.
The last of the vines are headed for me, as if to take me with them. Their sharp thorns aimed at my heart. I only have time to blink before I feel blood on my face. But when I open my eyes I realize its not mine.
Naruto stands before me. The tip of thorns shining with blood out of his back. With what I can tell is the last of the chakra he has left he pools it in his hand. The chakra is unstable and shaky but he manages to throw it at the last of the living vines.
I watch as they burn clear of his chest, leaving a gaping wound where flesh had once been and should be. It is all I can do to catch him as he falls. Already I know he is gone before I even touch him, but still I can not stop the hope.
He has lived through so much. He can't die now, not because of me. I had just got him back. I hadn't even had the chance to tell him I loved him yet.
I can feel the pain in my heart well up and spill out my eyes. I can hear myself scream in pain the likes of which I had never known existed. I can't move. I can't see anymore. The tears and pollen are choking me. The sobs tearing their way out of me brokenly.
I can't see. It takes everything I have left in me to breathe as I clutch what is left of my love to me. I can't let him go. He never let me go, it is only right I now do the same. I feel tugging on my arm and fight it without though.
I don't care who it is. I wont leave. I can't move, the pain in me is too great, numbing my body to everything around me but the growing coldness in my arms and the tugging on my shoulder.
Is this what it felt like to die? Is this what will finally end me? If so, then thats fine. I will follow him. I wont leave him again. I can't breathe…..
Orochimaru POV
I hear the scream before I can really register what happened. I am running behind Naruto on the other side of him from Sasuke. One moment he was there and the next he was gone.
I see Sasuke catch his body, tears already streaming down his face. Well at least now I wont have to make up some lie about how he 'died'. Sasuke is clutching him tightly, I don't know if I can get him away before Naruto begins to heal. I don't know how long I have.
Just hearing Sasuke cry is heartbreaking, but I will keep my word. I will help Naruto do this only because I know he's had time to think about this. He has always known what he wanted, and I'm hoping now is no different.
I try to pull Sasuke away from him but he fights me. I can tell he can't really breath. His body can't seem to decide it it wants to sob or cough and both are getting caught in his throat. I am also having trouble but I'm not crying either. The pollen is thick in the air, and if I don't calm him down soon he may choke before I can get him away.
I pull harder, but still he fights. I know he realizes the same thing as me. He can't breathe, and he plans to keep it that way. He plans to die here with Naruto.
I can't let that happen.
I finally reach around his throat and with my chakra I open it up a bit, allowing air into his lungs. He sobs harder but he can breath now. But his lack of air has weakened him. I can now pull him away from Naruto.
I hear him scream with his new-found air. He fights me but without his grip on Naruto I am stronger. I have to get Sasuke away quickly now. I can see the edges of Naruto's wound slowly knitting together.
After is becomes clear to Sasuke that he can no longer fight me he clings to me. His hands fisting on my shirt tightly and I know the fabric is ripping in places. The shoulder he has buried his face in is already wet, and it doesn't seem like he will calm anytime soon.
When I reach the others they all have similar looks of shock and disbelief. They can no more believe Naruto is dead than Sasuke.
Sakura is the first to break free. She rushes over to Sasuke. And as I would expect no less of Tsunade's student she first makes sure he is unharmed. Naruto had done well, other than being tired and heartbroken he is without a scratch.
I pass him over to her. He is lucky to have her. She will take care of him. I turn and begin to head back to Naruto. The small white flowers allowing me past. Pulling a scroll out of my pocket, I undo the jutsu sealing tools within it. After getting my shovel I begin to dig.
Naruto was a ninja who died in battle. He will get his name on the marker in Konoha, but he will be buried where he fell. Like the true worrier he was.
I can here the others debate on wither to try to held me but the flowers are still very much alive and still dangerous. By the time the hole is dug, Naruto's wound has almost completely healed. When the others looked away, I summoned a dead snake and placed it in the hole while other living snakes made off with the healing Naruto under the cover of the flowers.
Returning to the others I see Sasuke has cried himself out and now is fitfully sleeping curled up to Sakura. Many of the others though, can't seem to sleep at all.
I think now is the time to tell them. I first address Jiraiya, he will understand the most.
"I think you should leave at first light. It will be better if you get Sasuke away from here quickly." I say.
"You are saying 'we' and 'you' as if you not coming."
"I'm not. While I no longer hate the village, I don't think I can go back. There is too much hate for me there." I said shaking my head.
"But the hokage herself welcomed you back." Sakura said.
"That place had not been my home for many years, even before I left. I may visit, but as much as I had fought it, I am old. And there is one place left that this old man wants to go."
"You want to go back to the village in the mountains don't you? I could go with you. It can't be easy going back after all these years." Jiraiya offered.
I shake my head at him and smile sadly. "You can follow in a few weeks maybe a few months, but I have never allowed myself to mourn, and with this newest loss maybe I finally can. I want to spend what time I do have trying to clean the lake. Maybe people will come back to it then. And it can live again. She can live again, with the hearts of the people back in the village. Keeping it alive…." I trail off, knowing only Jiraiya will understand what I'm talking about.
The others don't know about the little village hidden in the mountains I called home. The village where I met my wife, the love of my life. The lake where she died, its waters now black as dried blood. I hope I can talk Naruto into coming with me sooner rather than later. Maybe he can help the lake.
I can see in Jiraiya's eyes that he would rather come with me now, but I know he understands my need to go alone. I have not been back since she died, and have avoided the entire mountains range all these years.
He wont like it, but he will let me go.
"Take care of Sasuke. Make sure he gets back to the village alive. I know Naruto spent years trying to get him to go home, make sure he does. You could even call it his last wish if Sasuke doesn't look like he'll make it."
I turn to gather my things when I feel a hand on my shoulder. Jiraiya is giving my a strange look.
"Take care of yourself. And never forget I'm still your friend, and you still have a place to go, if you need it. I'll come by in a month or so to make sure your ok." he said.
"Thank you." I say. And I mean it. It means a lot to me knowing that he still cares even after all that I have done. I pack my thing and head off. I can hear Sasuke whimpering in his sleep a but and pull out the blue crystal Naruto had given me before we had set off this morning.
I place it on Sasuke and even in his sleep he knows what it is. His hand reaches for it and almost immediately he quiets.
"No one ever dies when someone remembers them." I whisper to him. I know Sakura is still awake, but I don't care. Its something he needs to hear. And I wish someone had told me that a long time ago. I know even in sleep he hears me. And I hope it help him.
After packing what little I had with me I leave a scroll with some medical jutsu and herbs in Sakura's bag and head off. I quickly meet with the now awake Naruto and we head off for the village in the mountains. We both feel at ease withthe dark around us, and before we know it miles had moved beneath out feet before morning.
