STOP: Error 404 – Identity not found!

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||



Naruto stood there, petrified with horror, as he watched the older man walking away. He still couldn’t believe what just had happened. He didn’t say anything; he couldn’t. His mind didn’t work properly and even though one hundred thoughts were running through his head, he couldn’t even say one out aloud.

It was just when Sasuke closed the door behind him that Naruto was relieved from his shock. “Wait!” the young blond exclaimed; his legs were running on their own effort as he tried to catch up with the raven haired male. The door swung open quickly, giving way to the yellow flash that was Naruto.

“Wait!” Naruto shouted, running down the street, looking for the raven haired man. Finally his eyes caught a glimpse of jet black spiky hair and the kitsune vessel picked up his pace. He couldn’t let the other man escape; he knew too much (O__o”)

“WAIT!!! GOD DAMN IT! WAAIT!!!” the young man shouted on top of his lungs and, for once, his loud voice was helpful. The older man stopped in his path, turning around to face the young psychiatrist who was quickly approaching him. Sasuke waited patiently until the young man came to a halt before him. Panting, Naruto tried to catch his breath again; arching his back and resting his hands on his thighs, he remained in this position for a little while.

It was Sasuke who spoke first. “What do you want?” The raven’s voice was cool and indifferent, as if nothing had had happened. “Te—Teeme,” Naruto panted out, “Don’t act like… that!” “How?” Sasuke asked, regarding the young panting male in front of him. “Like that!” Naruto shouted, angry at the ignorant question the other man had asked him. The raven remained indifferent. He regarded the blond silently, waiting for him to say more. “You see, you’re doing it again! You act as if nothing had happened!” the kitsune vessel shouted harshly. An unimpressed “Hn” was Sasuke’s sole reply, but it was the last straw for Naruto.

“YOU GODDAMN BASTARD! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!” Naruto exclaimed against the still unimpressed raven before he lost his temper. Seeing the stoic raven remaining indifferent to his trouble, the fox’s body moved on its own. Punching the dark haired man in the face, the Uchiha fell, with a dull thud, on the hard asphalt. The raven rubbed his abused cheek; it hurt. Every feeling of sympathy he had felt for the blond a minute ago was being immediately washed away, when the younger man’s fist connected with his face.

‘You’ll pay for this,’ the raven haired man thought angrily, his eyes lingered on the other man gloomily as he picked himself up again. “You’ll regret that, dobe.” Sasuke snarled, narrowing his eyes on the kitsune vessel. “Stop calling me dobe, you cocky bastard! Why can’t you just forget about that goddamn incident, so I can go home relieved? Arrrgh!! You know what? Forget that I want you to forget about that incident! It doesn’t matter whether you tell anyone that I dreamt about you! No one will believe you anyway since I’m much more popular than you are because I’m nicer! You are just an arrogant asshole!” Naruto ranted, enticing the older man to wonder whether the fox vessel would remember to breathe anytime soon.

Inflamed with rage, Naruto trudged away; complaining about the other man behaviour loudly.

‘What… was that just now?’ Sasuke briefly wondered. “Dobe,” the dark haired man said, shaking his head.

(Un)fortunately, the young blond didn’t hear the raven’s last word. He was too far away already.

When Naruto arrived home, the only thing he wanted to do was sleeping. His work and his argument with the raven haired man had exhausted him. So he took off his shoes and went to the bathroom to take a nice and relaxing warm shower. Humming a soft melody, the kitsune vessel quickly forgot all his problems.

Once he finished taking his shower, he put on his pyjamas. ‘I’ll call it a day.’ Naruto thought, tottering to his bed. The young blond was dead tired and was hardly able to reach his bed before he fell asleep.

When Naruto opened his eyes again, he found himself in a dark, empty room. ‘Oh great,’ Naruto thought ironically when he saw… nothing at all. Trying to feel his way forward through the pitch-dark room, he tripped over his own feet. A low angry growl erupted from his throat as a result of him being angry at himself. ‘That’s so typical. Why do things like that happen to me of all people?’ He thought as he picked himself up again, dusting off his clothes as he did so. Though he was unable to see any dust, the kitsune vessel assumed that his clothes were dirty after his fall.

Suddenly a brilliant blue light illuminated the room slightly and was forming a narrow path to another room. Curious, Naruto followed the lurid light. Once he was in the other room, he could see the source of the light; it was his PC!

“What the fuck?” Naruto briefly wondered, surprised to see his computer in his dream. ‘Oh well… Don’t they say that if there’s something written down in your dreams, you’ve to read it?’ The blond shrugged his doubt off; his curiosity was stronger than any doubt. He approached his monitor carefully. Despite the fact that it was just a dream, Naruto didn’t want to be hurt or killed; so it’s better to never let your guard down.

“Error 404! The identity you were looking for could not be found. If you already know the person you’re looking for, please type in his or her name.” The kyuubi vessel read the message on the Bluescreen aloud. He didn’t even move a finger afterwards as he stared at the message in front of him, reading over it again. ‘The person… I was looking for? What? Who?’ Naruto thought. His mind was a jumble, unable to form a coherent thought, though one thought always came to his mind; the goddamn Uchiha.

“Argh,” Naruto growled frustrated. “Can’t this bastard leave me alone? Pretty please, even if it’s just in my dreams, leave me alone!” He cried out desperately. The cursor was blinking unswervingly, awaiting an input.

‘Uchiha! Uchiha! Uchiha! Uchiha! Uchiha!’ His mind only repeated the name of the person he hated most, causing the poor blond to type in said name angrily. Inflamed with rage at the mere thought of the raven haired man, Naruto pounded the keyboard as he typed in the Uchiha’s name.

A few seconds later the Bluescreen changed, showing a picture of said man. It read:


Keyword : Uchiha

Results : 01


Name : Uchiha Sasuke

Name first heard : 23rd August, 2007

Where : Telephone call; Microsoft technical support group

Person first met : 24th August, 2007

Where : Patient at Hatake Kakashi’s office

Known facts : Cocky attitude, bastard


Naruto’s eyebrow twitched at the name. Bad memories were brought back to him. He didn’t forget the telephone call with that snotty-nosed little upstart, but he didn’t know that the “Telephone-Bastard-Uchiha” and the “I-won’t-forget-the-incident-about-you-dreaming-of-me-Uchiha” were in fact the same person.

Slapping his flat hand against his forehead, the kyuubi vessel grumbled. Now that he could compare both encounters, they were pretty much alike. The way the Uchiha had treated him on the phone was similar to the way he treated him when they were at Kakashi’s office.

Come to think of it, didn’t the Uchiha say that he wanted him to call him Sasuke?

“Oh no…” Naruto grumbled again. “Please, no,” the kitsune vessel pleaded. Suddenly, everything made sense, although Naruto didn’t like it. The young blond was on the verge of despair. Closing his eyes, he willed everything around him away. All he wanted was some time to think, but even that small wish seemed to remain unfulfilled when he didn’t wake up from his dream. To Naruto, it was more like a nightmare than a normal dream. When he first phoned with the raven haired man, he hoped he would never have to speak to him again. And now?! Not only did he have to talk to him, but he also had to see the bastard every day. Slowly, realisation sank in, and a single tear ran down his whiskered cheek, leaving a moist trail behind. “Someone… wake me up, please,” the young blond pleaded despairingly.

A loud noise brought the fox vessel back to reality. His alarm clock had saved him from his nightmare, but there were still a few problems.

First; it wasn’t a nightmare. Naruto knew that it was real. Well, at least the information he got regarding the Uchiha were.

Second; his alarm clock might had saved him, but it didn’t mean to save him. Far from it! The alarm meant that it was time for him to wake up since he would be late for work otherwise.

Work… The mere thought of his work sent shivers down the kitsune vessel’s spine. He would meet the leading actor from his nightmare there. Tucking up his legs, the poor blond lay on his bed, curled up in a ball.

The deafening noise of his alarm clock had taken a back seat when Naruto contemplated his situation. He could go to work, meet the… uhh… Uchiha. Another shiver was sent down his spine at the mention of the raven haired man’s name. Or, he could take the day off and tell his superior that he was ill.

Though the second idea sounded like the better one, it wasn’t. He would have to find a doctor who would attest him that he was ill even if he wasn’t.

“Unnngh.” Naruto whined as he stood up slowly, getting ready for the upcoming day.

Error log file (also known as Author’s note):

Don’t say anything! I can read your mind… You think that… this chapter was too short. Since I haven’t updated for a very long time, it should have been longer, ne?

I’m sorry. Really, I am.

But I can’t write that often (especially not the last months).

I had to write various tests (and I still have to write more) and I had to work.

Well, at least I don’t have to work anymore, though I have to find a doctor now.

No, I don’t need one to attest me that I’m (not) ill, but I need a … rataplan… psychologist. They want to do further tests with me and since they can’t find any physical reason for my disease they want to check my mental health… Again.

Do I look like a guinea pig?

Oh well, don’t worry. It’s hard to get an appointment for a therapy, so I can write some more. The next update could take a while because I have three tests after my holidays. English, Mathematics and Chemistry. And then I have to write my Sociology test.

So, what did we learn today?

Naruto has lucid dreams and, finally, remembers Sasuke.

Sasuke is stubborn and doesn’t want to forget about that incident.

I hate Ubuntu and am glad that I’ll never have to install it again.

Their next therapy session will be fun. Can you imagine what it’ll be like?!

Sasuke doesn’t know yet that he already met Naruto, but Naruto knows.

Believe me, it won’t take too long until our dearest Uchiha remembers him.

Okay. I won’t spoil you.

So…

Stay tuned! Mata ne!
