-Naruto and the Key of Twilight-

 

~Time Skip- Two Months~

 

Sasuke had left Konoha two months earlier. He didn't know why Naruto had been so cold to him. He only knew that, for some reason he couldn't fathom, it hurt. Hurt more than any slap in the face or kunai to the heart. But he wouldn't give Naruto the satisfaction of hearing him beg. He had other plans. He would travel. See other worlds. Maybe his absence would make Naruto's heart grow fonder. Or maybe not. Either way was fine with him.

 

He arrived on a beautiful island where a boy stood under a lone tree, his eyes misty with tears.

 

“Ri-“ the boy began. “Oh, you're not Riku.”

 

“No,” Sasuke apologized. He recognized the look the boy had in his eyes. He had seen it before. The boy missed his love.

 

Sasuke inclined his head a little to block out the sunlight and said,

 

“Sorry to disappoint you.”

 

The boy shrugged and leaned up against the tree.

 

“Just thought that he'd be back by now,” he whispered.

 

Sasuke felt something pulling at his heart, but didn't know what. He went and stood next to the boy, not talking, but standing and offering his comfort.

 

After a while, Sasuke looked at the slightly smaller boy and asked,

 

“Want to talk about it?”

 

The boy looked up and thought that he saw a glimmer of what he was feeling in this new boy's eyes. He nodded and said,

 

“That would be nice.”

 

After a few seconds' pause, he began.

 

“I was rather cold to a dear friend of mine…When I went home I figured that I could talk to him about it the next day. But when I went over to his house that following morning, no one was home and his mother said that he went away on a t-trip somewhere…”

 

The boy's eyes started to fill with tears again and he instinctively leaned on this new boy's shoulder. Sasuke was a little taken aback by this, but wrapped an arm around the brunet in a comforting sort of way.

 

“So,” the boy started, wiping his eyes on the back of his hand. “Why are you here?”

 

Sasuke wanted to say that it wasn't any of the brunet's business, but decided against it and said instead,

 

“Just wanted to get away from it all. No one back in Konoha really wanted me there anyway, so I see it as doing everyone a favor.”

 

“Konoha?”

 

“Yeah, my home village. Its proper name is Konohagakure.”

 

The boy looked up at Sasuke and said,

 

“That's a mouthful…what's it mean?”

 

Sasuke gave a small smile at the boy's inquisitiveness and said,

 

“It translates into `Village Hidden in the Leaves.'”

 

The boy's blue eyes filled up with wonder and he asked,

 

“Do you think that maybe Riku went to Kono…uh, this place?”

 

Sasuke shrugged.

 

“Maybe,” he guessed. “My name's Sasuke, by the way.”

 

“Sora,” Sora replied.

 

And the two boys shook hands, each plotting how he might use the other to make the boy he loved jealous.
