"No! Naruto!" yelled Saskue, it was not supposed to end like this, in fact it was never supposed to happen at all.
A light rain had started to fall and Naruto and Saskue were out on a routine mission speck, all of a sudden Itachi appeared out of no where and attacked them, both Naruto and Saskue, both Class S Rank Anbu specialists, were able to fight him off, well that was before things went sour.
Naruto’s back was toward Saskue and Saskue knew something was wrong, it was just how limp Naruto seemed to be sitting there on the branch; jumping over to Naruto he found what was wrong, a kunai was lodged deep in his chest, even through the thick layers of the Anbu protective gear.
Naruto moved his head slightly and smiled weakly at Saskue.
"I guess….I didn’t move out of the way quick enough.." said Naruto.
"Shh…don’t speak, your losing enough blood as it is…" said Saskue, worried about his friend, comrade, and lover.
Yes, lover, it happen many years ago, long before they both became Anbu soldiers, Naruto had played a prank on Saskue by painting his room in orange and pink, well Saskue got revenge by capturing Naruto and sitting a bowl of ramen in front of him and wouldn’t give it no matter how much Naruto begged, however that plan backfired when Naruto admitted that he had a secret and told Saskue that he had been in love with him even since they met, letting his mask slip for once in his life, Saskue smiled and admitted that he to loved Naruto.
Now that lover was in trouble and dieing, Saskue grabbed onto Naruto as he swayed backwards almost falling off the branch, holding Naruto, Saskue started to break down crying.
Naruto looked at his lover and smiled weak again. "I never thought it would never end this way.."
"Don’t talk like that…I’ll take you back to the village and Tsunade will heal you and everything will be alright and we’ll be able to go to the cherry festival like you want" said Saskue holding Naruto gently so as not to move the kunai deeper.
Naruto looked at Saskue and smiled faint yet again. "I promise…I’ll try to make your life a better one…I love you Saskue...I always have.." with his final words spoken…Naruto closed his eyes and took his last breath.
"Naruto? Naruto come on wake up!" yelled Saskue shaking Naruto slightly, but it was to late…the great Naruto Uzumaki was dead.
