A/N: GOMEN! I know, I haven't update this story in 3 years! I'm horrible. I promise there was a good reason for it. (see Author's note 2) This chapter isn't very long and maybe out of sync with the rest of the story, I'm hoping it's not. I made sure to re-read my chapters today before I started writing more to this chapter so that I could stay on track with the plot line. I hope that there are some readers who had been reading this before that are still around. If not, well I want to thank them all again for the reviews 3 years ago. Also this is not beta'd right now so be sure to expect mistakes. I really was just trying to get the ideas that were floating around in my head typed out onto the computer. So with that, I hope this chapter is enjoyable to read and good. I promise I will be updating it again more often. That is my plan anyways.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto or any of the characters, they belong to their respectful owners and creators.
Chapter 4
~*~
If you had told Uchiha Sasuke that Naruto was really a part of the Akatsuki and that he had been his late brother's lover... well he probably would have believed you eventually.
~*~
Red eyes glowed in the night as the person made their way quickly across the village rooftops towards the tallest tower in the village. Chakra now masked so that his presence wasn't known, he jumped into one of the open windows in the Hokage tower. He stood there for a brief moment to figure out where he was standing before heading right. They usually had their own place in this tower that they lived in, so once he found one of them he would have found all of them. A smile formed on his lips and his eyes narrowed as he began to feel other chakra presences near. He must be getting close, he wondered if there was any bodyguards there? He'd have to kill them if there was, or at most put them down for a bit. He could hear the voice inside his head now, as red eyes stayed alert for anything that could stop him from doing his job.
'Ah, finally, some action again. Took you long enough brat.' A malicious smirk formed on thin lips.
'You knew it was going to happen eventually. You are just pissed cause you got bored of waiting to get some release. But it'll be fun tonight, I promise.' He heard a low rumble that took the form of laughter inside his head.
'Good. I was bored. You and you're waiting, as you call it. You're lucky you can control me so well, or else something would have happened already. So, are we almost there? I'm getting anxious here, brat.' Naruto let out a small chuckle before he finally made his way to at least a dozen different doors. He knew he had made it to the right place as he felt different chakra presences asleep in different rooms behind various doors. His grin became more feral as he began search for certain chakra presences.
The first presence he felt was Tsunade's, she was asleep in the highest part of the tower, where the Hokage's normally lived. He felt a twinge of guilt for her when he thought about what he was planning to do, but had she saved him when he was falling to his darkest time? He had been stripped of everything, his dreams, his status, his will to live. He was going to finally carry out what Uchiha Sasuke never did. Besides, if he died doing this, he was going to take down as many people as he could, make them suffer the way they made him suffer.
'Brat, what's the plan now?' Naruto closed his eyes and searched the other chakra presences there. There was at least five sleeping downstairs in what he assumed was the corridors for the elders. There was no one else there besides Shizune who was sleeping on the main level of the towers. Getting in would be the hard part of his plan, they always had guards around, watching the area for anyone unexpected. No matter how stealthy he was, he knew that the ninjas that are guarding would be old comrades and school mates he once knew, meaning they were also powerful and skillful like himself. It was good to know that the Uchiha was at home sleeping for the moment, one less opponent to try and get through, one less fight that would take more precious time to carry out his own personal mission.
'Don't worry about the plan. Just be ready to lend me your energy when we get in. I can't tell how many are out here guarding this area right now, nor how many are probably actually inside. Gotta give them that, many of them have improved since we were kids.' He heard the fox grumble but stayed quiet. He was glad for that, he always worked better when his mind was quiet and the fox wasn't yipping away in his mind. Opening his eyes back up, he set to sprint to the roofs when a hand grabbed his shoulder, stopping him from moving. He turned around quickly already on the defense to whoever was touching him. Blue met black as strong, long, tanned fingers gripped a pale white neck. They loosened when Naruto realized who it was standing behind him but didn't let go of the neck. Sasuke stared at him, a look of questioning in his dark stare. Naruto narrowed his eyes back. This obstacle was not one he was expecting this evening.
“What are you doing here Naruto?” The blond dropped his hand completely, letting it fall to his side silently. Long, thin fingers lingered on his shoulder, not ready to let go of him yet. Naruto was unsure what to say at the exact moment, his mind was too consumed in his lust for revenge and his mission to prepare for this situation. Blinking up at the Uchiha finally he cleared his mind enough to form some kind of reason behind why he was standing in front of the Hokage tower.
“I couldn't sleep and decided I needed some air. I got caught in my walk around the village and finally ended up here in front of the tower. I was just seeing what's changed around here. That's all Teme. Why?” Playing stupid. It was some thing he was too well at and it never took him a second thought to switch to. Heaven forbid the elders thought he was smart, he'd be locked up instantly if such a rumor went around. It was probably a talent he used as a survival technique, you couldn't expect a kid to get through life the way he had if he hadn't played dumb. The problem with using it in this situation was that Sasuke knew him too well for it to work.
“I heard you leave and followed you. You've been pacing here for the last hour. So I'll ask again, what are you doing here Naruto?” Sasuke was serious, he always was when he used Naruto's name instead of calling him a baka or dobe. If the dark haired man was good at one thing it was being direct. Naruto could feel the anger in him rise a fraction at this though. He should have noticed Sasuke following him, knew he was being followed. He let his emotions rule him, some thing he though he finally broke the habit of. Realization dawned on him at that point. He may have come back claiming “good will” to the village, but no one actually trusted him. In reality hadn't his whole life been like this though? Only when he had been with Itachi had he truly felt trusted and respected as an equal. Even being an ANBU leader, he knew his team had that tiny bit of fear of him and the kyuubi and didn't trust what powers he could have with the kyuubi living inside him. He wanted to laugh, shout, and even perhaps punch the man in front of him just to let out his anger. His bitterness to the village almost came out before he composed himself and looked back at Sasuke, this time without any goofy smile plastered to his sharp face.
“I suppose I can't expect any less from you, ne Sasuke? I was thinking. I pace when I'm thinking. You know what happened to me two years ago so you can understand I'm still trying to figure out why the elders have had a change of heart. You don't expect me to just be ok with the decision and not even question their motive after they wanted me on lock down in this village. Don't you also find it odd? Probably not, since they welcomed you back with open arms when you returned.” Naruto paused to collect his thoughts and where he was going with this conversation. He didn't need Sasuke to be any more suspicious of him than he seemed to be already. The less Sasuke noticed anything wrong the better his chances were of getting out of this village alive after killing the elders.
“I told them I'd leave this village if they didn't accept you back and allow you chuunin rank and advancement back to your original position. They agreed up until allowing you back to leader ranks, they refused that. But I thought even having you allowed back to an ANBU team would help you settle back into the village... and not leave again. Tsuande backed me up the entire time while I spoke with the elders. I asked her not to say anything about it. Yet here we are discussing it now.” Naruto had to blink up at the Uchiha now, confused beyond belief as to what he was hearing. His first question was why had he gone to such extents to allow the blond back? It was so crazy and ridiculous that he actually thought maybe it was all a lie. He wanted to punch the raven haired man then for saying something so stupid and ludicrous. He shook his head instead and began to laugh.
“You're good teme. You actually want me to believe you said that? That it was your influence that got me in a better situation than I would be right now? That I get to be a ninja for this village again because of you? Humor me for a minute and answer me this question, why would you leave the village if they didn't allow me back in as a chuunin and have my previous ranks gained back? I'm just curious and want to hear what you have to say.” The blond may have been laughing but in reality he found nothing humorous about this. It was just a sick joke going too far. Would Sasuke be saying this right now if he knew that he had been his late brother's lover? He'd probably be one of the first to throw Naruto to the wolves. 'Brat is this happening tonight or not?' Naruto cringed at the growl that he could hear coming from the fox. 'Not tonight obviously. Go sleep or something. Let me get this shit all sorted out before we have a larger problem.' He heard the kyuubi let out a snort at the response. He wasn't pleased about this himself.
Sasuke let go of his grasp on the broad man's shoulders then. This was not quite the reaction he expected and it irked him a bit at how Naruto was laughing at this revelation. The laugh didn't sound right, it sounded bitter and angry, if a laugh could ever sound angry. Malicious yes. Trying to figure out how to explain why he had gone to such drastic measures without outright confessing his feelings for the tanned man was near impossible. That had been his motive behind his meeting with the elders, knowing that Naruto was finally within an arms length was almost comforting to him, and he didn't want them to take that away again. He also had many unanswered questions he had for the blond, ones that kept getting evaded which was only frustrating him more. He wondered if just being forward about why he did it was better than beating around the bush, which is what Naruto had been doing since he was back. If he wanted answers he would have to start with being the one who was truthful and forward. Fists clenched he let out a sigh and finally spoke.
“If they did anything to make you go away again, I would have left. This time to find you and follow you where ever you went. I would give up this village for you. You've been the only one stable in my life and have thought of. Because I have feelings for you and have for a long time.” He paused, he wanted to see the reaction that Naruto would have with this confession before going on. It felt like the right place to pause, if he got a different reaction then he would stop with this now and let it go and bring Naruto back home to sleep while making sure he was there and not out again. He saw an array of emotions run through the cerulean eyes, taking it everything Sasuke told him. He waited.
“Y-y-you got to be kidding me. No you must be joking. A long time? Really? And you're just telling me this now? You couldn't have said anything 2 years ago? 3 years ago? Or was these discovered feelings something that happened more recently? In the time I was gone you realized your feelings for me? I'm just curious here, so I can know the time frame.”
“Does how long I've known about these feelings matter?”
“YES! Yes they do. Oh Sasuke, you don't know how much you fucked up. Tell me, how long?” The golden haired man was angry, hell he was pissed. This couldn't possibly be happening now. Had Sasuke felt this way before he ever left the village? If so then why was he only saying some thing now? Why not earlier? Why not before he ever left? If only he knew how much knowing that would have changed the outcome of the tanned man's life now.
“Ever since I came back, just before I came back I had realized it...” The Uchiha's sentenced trailed off. He felt the anger radiate from Naruto, it was a frightening thing to feel. It was darker and more destructive than anything he ever felt come from the him before.
“Why are you only telling me now then?! Why didn't you say anything when I was still here? Knowing this... I would have stayed. Things would have been different... my life would have been ok even with the circumstances at the time if I had known I still had someone by my side. You- I- I need to go. I can't- no I don't want to do this now. Go back home, go back to bed. Leave me alone. Don't you dare follow me again tonight or you will regret it.” Before the raven haired man could grab the blond he was off in the shadows, gone in the blink of an eye. He was stuck standing there, hand in mid air just hovering over the area that had been Naruto. He was baffled. What just happened? Did Naruto just admit to once having feelings for him? A better question to ask was how he fucked up so bad? Better yet, where did Naruto disappear to? He decided then that it would be better to not follow him now. He knew it would result into a nasty fight with a good amount of wounds that would have to be explained to the Hokage and Haruno. He wanted to avoid that for now until he figured out what was going on inside the blond's head. He turned and headed home. It was time to go into Naruto's room and search for answers, answers he wouldn't get from Naruto himself.
~*~
With a hand curled around the bronze door knob to the spare guest room, Sasuke stood there. He wasn't sure how long he had actually been standing there but he knew it was time to go forward. Turning the knob in his grasp he opened the door to the guest room that Naruto was currently occupying. It was tidy, so unexpected from the blond. Time had changed the blue eyed boy drastically. The bed was made, clothes all put away, no bags or garbage was on the floor. He looked around, looking for the best spot to start searching for anything that belonged to Naruto. He saw a forest green strap sticking out from under the bed, assuming it was the strap to Naruto's duffel bag he decided to start there. Grabbing the strap in his left hand he pulled it from under the bed. His assumptions correct on it being the duffel bag. It was heavy as he placed it on the bed. Finding the zipper on one side he opened the bag slowly as realization of what he was doing hit him. Did he really want to find out what Naruto was hiding from him? Would he be prepared to find out? He decided then he needed to know. He was tired of guessing and asking questions, he didn't like being in the dark when it concerned the one person he truly cared for. With the bag open he began to rummage through Naruto's things, spare clothes he didn't put away, a few pictures, the regular traveling gear... and a black piece of clothing that was at the bottom of the bag. Grabbing it, he pulled it out to reveal a black with red cloud traveling cloak. He knew instantly was it respected. Akatsuki. He looked back in to find another. Naruto had two... and a headband. He grabbed it as well and recognized instantly who's it was. He then saw a picture at the bottom that had been under the headband. He took it out and looked at it. Two dark haired, dark eyed boys stood together. One who looked to be only eight with his arm around other who looked to be about five starred out of the picture with innocent smiles on their smiles as they posed for the picture. One of the cloaks that had been set on the bed slid to the ground as he grasped the slashed leaf village headband in his right hand and the picture in his left, staring at the two items with wide eyes.
Why did Naruto have his brother's headband and a picture of him as a child with his brother?
TBC...
