Frozen
Sasukes finaly killed his Brother
Troubled by nightmares, Sasuke sat up in bed. Eyes wide open he stared at his hands, but in the darkness he could not see anything. He believed to notice the smell of blood in air. He reached for the bedside lamp and the light flickered sharply. He suppressed the impulse to close his eyes and stared at his hands in disbelief. They were clean. He had been positive that they would be blood-stained. Impatiently, he tossed the blanket aside and rose. It had now been two weeks since he had returned victoriously from the battle, and nevertheless these dreams still haunted him every night.
The memory of the fierce fight against Itachi, which he had won in the end, haunted him. He had always dreamt about this moment. Still, now that he had reached the goal of his dreams, he felt only empty. There was no feeling of satisfaction like he had expected there would be. Not even a kind of relief. Only this emptiness.
And he could not get rid of the pictures in his head. The last minutes of his brother and the way he had tried to explain the murders briefly before his death. I did it so that we could be free, Sasuke! They hated me, and they were afraid you already! Because we were too strong. I wanted to free us!
His words had only been lies, or at least that’s what Sasuke had tried to tell himself over and over. Nevertheless, there was a gnawing voice in the back of his head, always asking itself whether or not Itachi had spoken the truth after all. He would never find out.
He left his small apartment clad only in his black pants. The night air was cool, but he did not mind at all.
The bandages around his head bothered him. For months he had been without the forehead protector of Konoha, and now he was no more accustomed to the feeling of having something tied around his head. Actually, he should have remained in bed. Tsunade had taken care of him after the fight; otherwise he would have probably died from his injuries. Not that the thought worried him. Now that he had achieved his goal, his life had no more meaning anyway.
Some light shone down on him and he raised his head. The clouds had divided for one moment and the moon seemed radiating brightly by the sky. Sasuke sighed quietly. Why do I feel so empty? He had the impression to be able to feel nothing at all any more. He could enjoy neither the beauty of this night nor the peacefulness of the village which he called home.
“Sasuke-kun?”
He turned around. “Sakura?” He was surprised to see her at such a late time. It seemed as if she had been on the way to his place. “You were going to see me?” he asked.
She blushed slightly and nodded. “I wanted to make sure you were okay.”
He nodded, more to himself. Now he remembered. During the first week, when he had lain in bed recovering from the wounds of the fight, she had often been there. Whenever he had awoken from the terrifying dreams, Sakura had been there, replacing the wet cloth on his forehead, or just sleeping on a chair next to his bed. He searched his heart for a feeling of warmth or gratitude, but there was just nothing.
“You should not be out here in the cold, Sasuke-kun,” she said tenderly and approached him. “I’ll bring you home, before you catch a cold. Tsunade said your body is still weak.”
He allowed her to take his hand and lead him back to his apartment. For no particular reason, he found himself thinking back to the day when they had met Kakashi and he had asked them about their dreams. I don’t know whether you could call it a dream, he had answered at the time. But I must kill a certain man. And rebuild my clan.
He inhaled sharply. Perhaps that was it. The resurrection of the clan... maybe then his feelings would return.
Sakura opened the door to his apartment and switched on the light. He deliberately closed the door, while she had already disappeared into the kitchen. “I’ll make you some tea, Sasuke-kun,” she called out merrily. She had always been by his side. When Kakashi and Naruto had betrayed him and tried to stop him from taking his revenge, only she had been there for him. He remembered what she had said that day when he had attempted to leave with the four sound-nin.
I love you with all my heart, Sasuke! Please, stay with me! And if you must go, then take me with you, I will try to help you in any way I can. I beg you, Sasuke. I... I would do everything for you!!
He went into the kitchen, an idea forming itself in his head. “Sakura,” he said. She turned around and smiled sweetly at him. She was always smiling when he was around. For whom was she playing the cheerful girl? For him?
“Sasuke-kun! Aren’t you cold?” she exclaimed. “Wait, I’ll get you something to wear.” She left the room and he looked over to the stove, where she had prepared water for the tea. She returned quickly, with a shirt over her arm. He did not protest when she flung it around his shoulders with a caring smile.
“Sakura...” he began, but she had turned back to the stove and was preparing two cups. “Sakura, do you remember what you said to me back then?”
Surprised, she turned her head. “What do you mean, Sasuke-kun? When did I say what?”
“When I left the village to go with the sound-nin.”, he explained patiently. It was starting to annoy him that she would rather concentrate on the cups of tea than on what he was saying. “Back then you said that you would do everything for me.”
She stopped and said, without turning around, “That was the truth.”
“Do you still feel that way?” he asked seriously. She picked up a cup and he lost his patience. Carefully he grabbed her shoulders and turned her around so she was facing him. His shirt slipped from his shoulders. She looked at him in surprise. “I have a request, Sakura.”
“What is it?” Her eyes became large. She could see in his eyes how serious he was about this.
He stared into her eyes and spoke firmly: “Marry me, Sakura.” The cup fell to the floor with a crash and broke into pieces.

Chapter 2
---------------------------------------------------------------
Pure...?
Sakura eyes were watering but, he as filled with disbleif and plenty of other emotions, but for some reason none of them, joy.
She wanted to be happy but something just wouldn't let her.
Wiping away her tears of disbelief she spoke firmly,"Really, I never really-- Naruto!! What would he do--." she paused. About release her true feelings for Naruto, but quickly got him out of her mind. "I mean, what would he do without me around?"
Sasuke then realized that Sakura may was more serious and pre pared that he was, he never thought that hed have to move away or not have any free time.
Sasuke never did answer he just looked at sakura with a sort of gloomy sad look. "Sasuke-kun?"
"Oh, I was just thinking... about Naruto. I need to go see him
I'll be back soon."
Sakura was frustrated with Sasuke becasue he had just ruined a romantic moment and was barely listening to the conversation that HE started. He eeirly walked pass Sakura with a strange look. "<What if!?>" Sakura thought to herself, about Sasuke and Naruto's fight. "What if--," Sakura was now thinking aloud,"he wants to kill Naruto!?"
Sakura's face was pale with fright, she ran to the door to catch Sasuke before he left but he was nowhere in sight. She was then relived by a simple sentence that Naruto said Sasuke told him,"You Have Become My Best Friend" That was all the proof Sakura needed so show herself that Sasuke was not out to kill.
"Naruto..." Sasuke said to himself quietly. Then thought back to when he was in the hospital. Always the same line up--every time he woke up in the hospital; Sakura, sometimes Ino, Rock-lee a few times, and on one occasion he saw Neji and Shikamaru staring down at him. Never once that bright orange "jump suit"--
as he called it-- with a smooth blonde top poking out, never.
He then found himself jumping from rooftop to rooftop until he came to Naruto little apartment window. It was still nighttime, and Naruto had Jiyra over and they were both
asleep, Jiyra sitting in a chair next to a table with his head on his arms, and Naruto on his couch.
Sasuke just sat on the railing looking down, and then he thought, he rembered when he was with Orochimaru anc completed the partial soul transfer jutsu on Sasuke. Sasuke felt different with orochimaru, he felt... evil. He remebered while fighting Itachi haveing a scared look on his face when he looked Sasuke in the eyes. "your eyes...filled with hate...where did you get so much power!? Your not h--" Sasuke had not let him finish for he threw a kuni at Itachi's arm, pinning him to a nearby wall .
He also thought about the two times he attempted to kill naruto, and the other time that his friends had cried out for help but he ignored them. Sasuke tensened up.
He then found himself pulling a purple shriveled kuni out of his back pocket. It was a special kuni, a kuni that came directly frome Orocimaru's blood, highly venomous. It had an poison scroll atached to it, probbably to make the death more painful for the victim.
In a fury he unleashed the kuni shattering the glass and heading for the back of Naruto's head...
..............tbc..............
----------------Chapter 3-------------
Soon...
"Naruto!!!" Sasuke shouted as he stood helplessly on the pole.
He turned away exspecting to see his friend lying on the ground bleeding.
He sat for what seemed like an hour waiting to hear the sound of someone yelling, but nothing.
Then he finaly heard the faint sound, as if it was all the breath he had left, "Sasuke..."
He slowly sturned his head to see the most frightful thing he could ever imagine, but his long hair blocked his view.
He then fully turned around and saw Jiyra... bleeding...from his hand. His face was down an naruto was behind him.
Frozen with fear and disbelief, he was happy that sasuke had returned, and at the same time scared of Sasuke and
the fact that Jiyra was on the brink of death.
Jiyra coughed blood and slowly spoke the words "Orochimaru..."
he then fell to the ground, and Naruto quicly russed to the ground next to him to pull out the Kuni.
"Sasuke. You did this?" Tears fell from His eyes. "We can talk later, he needs a doctor."
Naruto wiped his tears and picked up Jiyra. And left his apartment with Sauke.
They hopped from roof to roof and once Naruto swiftly glanced over at Sasuke, with anger.
Sasuke felt the tension growing, and he was about to tell Naruto that he didnt know why he tried to kill him,
when the reached the Hospital and before Sasuke could say any thing Naruto said, "Shut up."
There was a lot of talk at the hospital, naruto was able to make out people whispering,"Isn't that the Uchiha kid?
I thought he was with Orochimaru" and "Isnt that guy supposed to be hokage?"
Sasuke was getting anxious to leave, he knew why he had done what he had done but he didnt know how to tell naruto. Finnaly a Nurse came to Naruto and Sasuke,
Sasuke looked up first.
"Sakura? Why are you here." Sasuke asked "She works here now... not that you would give a crap,"Naruto said angrily.
"Naruto!" Sakura gave naruto a dissapointed look but he was still looking down with jiyra breathing heavily on his shoulder.
"Sasuke, what happened?" "...Just take Jiyra, I've go to talk to Naruto."
Sasuke and Naruto walked out, and Sakura was almost crying but she remembered about Jiyra and took him to a room where the other nurses looked at him.
She heard them talking one coversation she heard was, "Who did this!? Its the same poison that was on Akno, the woman who runs the chunin exams."
"You mean...Oro--" "Yes him, but he hasnt been arond lately probably someone did it for him."
"Should we tell the Fith?" "Yes, she'll know what to do."
Sakura was afaraid... afraid something had changed Sasuke.
Naruto and Sasuke were on a rooftop when naruto said, "You bas--" "Naruto... kill me. Orochimru...I let him use me."
"I already know that!? Why else would you try to kill your friends!?" "Not like that..." Sasuke paused and shuddered."That was on my will."
"So you purposely tried to kill me?*" "Yes, you would only get in my way." "THats also why you tried to kill Sai and Sakura!?"
Sasuke said nothing "Talk to me!!" "No, For some reason I truly hated Sai, and A murderous intent came over me when Sakura ran at me. Im thankfull Sai stepped in, or I woldve killed my only other purpose in life."
Naruto tried to forget the way sasuke looked at him when he drew his sword, intended to kill him. "Forget that crap. What were you saying about Orocimaru?"
"Naruto as Much as I hate to say it, I hold... the downfall... of Konoha, and maybe the other villages too. I let Orochimaru tempoarily posses me, if he would give me the power to defeat Itachi"
"Thats how I defeated him, with orochimaru's power. It was an idiots mistake!! He'll be back for me, to use my power and his to destroy Konoha. Its terrible to know, that you are being controled by... a monster.
"Don't worry I'd be glad to kill you. After what you did to Jiyra... even after your pity story. I know your not Sasuke... Orochimaru!"
-------------------------------------------------------------
-------------Chapter 4------------
Changed
Sasuke looked at naruto as his own eyes widened, he was numbed with disbelif andstood the looking at Naruto, with his eyes wide open.
He finaly regained himself to where he could answer naruto.
He quietly sputtered out what he was thinking,"No...No Naruto
its ...me. The real Sasuke." Sasuke had no idea of what he had become, hartless.
"Yhea right! A bunch of crap! I know those eyes, those of a snake,or something evil and dark, filled with hatred! Your t--"
Naruto paused looking up at Sasuke, his eyes wide open and his body quivering.
"Sasuke...?" Sasuke was looking staight to the ground, sweating.
"So...thats whats become of me...?" Sasuke quivered he never realized how cold hearted he had become, wtaching orochinaru slaughter people.
"Its really me... Naruto" Sasuke slowly lifted his head up to look at Naruto,"But...I'm not the old Sasuke anymore. Orochimru has done this to me, and I swear I will get him back for what he made me do."
Naruto was staring at him with disbeleif,<So this is the new you, huh?> Naruto quietly thought to himself <I'm sorry Naruto, I aplogize if the frighten you> Sasuke replied to Naruto tauntingly, with his new thought speak ability.
Naruto looked over to Sasuke, unfazed by his joke or ability.
"No, I'm fine with it. As long as you stay away from me. I'm letting you off easy since your my friend but hurt any one else i know and I'll kill you!!"
Naruto turned away and walked to the edge of the roof and then jumped down to the streets, and walked off, aparently to his apartment.
Sasuke sat there eyes closed, and sweating. He now had to find a way to fix things with Naruto, while also trying to fix things with his body, and Orochi...
For the rest of the night he thought about a way to stop orochimaru from possesing him any longer. He tossed in the bed and didnt get to sleep till later on in the morning.
When he woke that day he had a strange feeling about himself, he went to go see Kakashi but he was out on a mission so he settled for Sakura instead.
On the way there, Sasuke saw Naruto laied out on a bench on the pathway Naruto glanced over at Sasuke and dryly said, "Because of you...Jiyra... is gonna die."
Sauke stopped and tilted his head down and spoke," I told you... it wasn't me. And I apologize and hope you don't hold to much of a grudge." Sasuke smiled.
Naruto sat up and reached in his back pocket, he jumped at Sasuke impailling the kuni in Sasuke's shoulder. "How dare you make fun of him!! He was like a father to me and you go and kill him!?"
Sasuke was still looking down and apparently unharmed by the kuni,"Move."
"Shut up and answer me!!" Sasuke chuckled,"Gai Sogenutsuki no jutsu."
A snake then appeared out of Sasuke's arm and coiled around Naruto. Naruto quivered and then faintly said," Your not Sasuke."
The snake bit Naruto on the arm, Naruto winced and fell on the ground in pain.
Sasuke then heard a familliar voce in his head that said kill him.
But Sasuke instead walked back along the path. On a sudden beat as if he had woaken from a trance Sasuke realized what he had just done. But when he turned round to look for naruto he was gone. Only some blood on the ground remained.
When Sasuke arrived at Sakura's house she glaadly let him in.
"Sasuke? Whats wrong?"
"Im changing, too much. I almost killed Naruto for no reason and... my body."
Saskura gasped and said,"They're like his, he did this to you?
Sasuke was silent and he closed his eyes.
"Sasuke?"
When Sasuke opened his eyes he felt a surge of pain in his head, he grabbed his head and coughed blood. He passed out.
When he awoke the sun was setting, and Sakura was in a chair next to him asleep, Sasuke pulled the wet towel of his head and sat up.
His head started throbbing and he coughed some more blood, but this time he didnt pass out. He heard a voice that said, "Let me help you."
in a panic he replied ,"please." He felt a calmness fall over his body and he realized what happened.
He then found himself walking over to Sakura. He tried to stop himself but all he did was laugh.This awoke Sakura.
"Hmm, Sasuk-" Sasuke imedeatly hit her in her head causing her to faint. He then picked her up and opened his mouth...
***tbc***
----------Chapter 5----------
Sasuke the saw him self wipeing the blood from his hands as if he was out of his body. He stood there frozen with fright, for the first time he saw what he looked like and what he had just seen.
He then heard a voce comming from a nearby wall, Orochimaru was standing there. "I told you to come back Uchiha. Or else you would regrow ties to the people ou knew. And for disobeying I'll force you back."
Whith anger in his yes he ran at him, "I'll Kill you!!!"
"Don't get thingyy Uchiha, I only taught you some of the things I knew, not even 5%."
Sasuke was still running at him but was suddenly stopped dead in his tracks by a Sword shoved into his arm by Orochi..
"It will only get wose Sasuke... untill you not only destroy those bonds..." Sasuke's eyes were wide open, as far as they could go, staring at Orochi with hate, "but kill them also. Like you just did Your pink haired friend." Sasuke looked down to Sakura and saw her eyes wide open staring up at the ceiling, bleeding from her neck. "You'll become more like me.
Orochimaru wedeged the srowd in deeper untill it came out his back. Orochi smiled and Sasuke yelled in pain. But he suddenly realized he was only sleeping. He knew what had happened, Kabuto used his jutsu to contact Sasuke. One more person to take down.
He saw sakura asleep on the sofa next to him. He woke her up,"Sakura, *hmph* now I know how Garaa felt."
Sakura wiped the sleep from her eyes and said,"What are you talking, about? Wait! Are you okay?"
Sasuke looked down at his stomach to see if any real damage had been done. " Yes, I'm fine. But I was saying, that Orochimaru Wants me back." Sakura fully opened her eyes,"I thought you knew that, and you-- wait, why did he let you go? I thought he wanted you as his container."
Sasuke calmed down, he did and he does. Either I'm going to need a to find a way to stop this jutsu he put on me or im going to have to go back to him."
"What jutsu? Is that why this is happening to you."
Sasuke wanted Sakura no to concern to much so he replied,"Yeah." Shouldn't you tell the Fith?" Sasuke was silent. But then replied,"No this is personal, even though I may die--" "BUt if you die Orochimaru will definetly have you. I need to go with you, or at least find a way to stop the jutsu."
"No, Kakashi will probbably know of something. And unless youve gotten much better Naruto may come." Sakura looked into Sasukes yellow eyes. "No, I'm comming with you weather Naruto comes or not." Sakura gasped looking at the blood on Sasuke's shrt." What happened!? Who did that to you?"
"Naruto, He's just a little mad, and it doesn't hurt. But now I may have to think of someone else to bring. And besides he has a right to be mad. The way I've been lately whould tick anyone off."
After Sasuke left Sakura's house He headed for Kakashi's. To his surprise Kakashi was back, Sasuke went in and saw that Kakashi was reading one of Jiyra's books.
"Havent you finished that book yet? Youve been reading it since we first met."
Kakashi was surpriesd to see Sasuke at such a late hour. (about 7:00) He hadn't seen Sasuke lately, so when he looked over at Sasuke his one eye opened.
Before Kakashi could utter a word Sasuke said,"Know a jutsu?"
at this time Sasuke was leaning against the wall looking at the ceiling. He didn't feel like seeing his sensei look so shocked at him. Kakashi finally regained his senses and looked back at his book.
"No, this book doesn't get old, and if you mean a jutsu for removing seals, yes." Sasuke was still staring up when he paused, but finally looked at Kakashi and said,"I don't think its a seal. But Im also not sure what it is. Only thing i do remember was a jutsu like you did on me to keep th curse mark under controll. But i did'nt hurt...at all."
Kakashi walked over to Sasuke,"Do you mind?"Kakashi asked Sasuke. Sasuke quizzically asked "Hm? What do you--" Kakshi pulled up his shirt and looked it his back. "I't is a seal. Unlike Naruto's its on your back, so you could'nt see it. I'm guessing Orochimaru put it on you to prepare you for his soul transfer. He needs his subjects to be to his likeness be fore there ready."
"Are you able to remove it?" Kakashi gesture to Sasuke to folow him. They went into Kakashi's bedroom. "It will take a minuite to prepare you may want to rest.
While Sasuke laid there he thought to himself what might happen if He became Orochimaru. "<I wasn't afraid at first beause I needed the power. But now since Itachi's gone... there's no reason now, I could restore the clan. And I'm starting to enjoy life now.>"
Kakashi walked back into the room." Come on." Sasuke looked at Kakashi and wondered why he told him to lay down if it would be so short. He figured just one of Kakashi's random acts.
When he went into Kakashi's "sitting" room he saw a layout like the one Kakashi had used to controll the curse mark. "It'll hurt alittle more this time since I must ues more power.
Sasuke took off his shirt and sat in the middle of the Jutsu. His pupils shrank and they peame almost like a staght line...
