Chapter 22: Water Finale

! - ! - !
! - !- !
This is it, the last chapter in this story, but don’t worry, I have a sequel (Already posted) named Future Tense that is a continuation of this story. And if your wondering, it’s going to be set in the future (There was no way in hell I was going to let go of a story premise this good). So don’t worry, I have big plans for Sasuke, Naruto and Konohamaru. Heh heh.

The way by Fastball
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

The rain had reason to torrential proportions in less then 2 minutes after the Nine-Tails had been knocked out by Iruka, It was a concern if the sewers could hold all of the water, or could the water drain fast enough because the water was already up to the curb even with the sewers draining.

“Has the situation been resolved?” Sarutobi asked.

“Yes sir, the situation is under control.“ Kabuto said, being the president’s direct secretary and sometimes advisor, it was his job to report these types of things.

“What was it exactly that caused all of this?”

“It was…a fox.”

“Fox?” Sarutobi raised an eyebrow “Are you saying a fox caused 100s of thousands of dollars of damages?”

Kabuto nodded “Believe it or not that’s what’s what happened.”

! - ! - !
They made up their minds And they started packing
!- ! - !
!- ! - !

“How is that possible?”

He shrugged “I’m not sure exactly, every channels playing what happened in loop.”

Sarutobi decided to leave this subject for another time, they had bigger problems to worry about, the storm for one. The first thing that came to his mind was Konohamaru, he had no doubt that the boy left home after that conversation they had. But he was probably back by now, Konohamaru knew it was dangerous to be out in this weather.

Sarutobi pressed the speaker button on his phone, then hit the second number on speed dial. “Ebisu.” Sarutobi didn’t get an answer, but he didn’t need one, with in 30 seconds Ebisu walked into the room.

“Yes Mr. President?” He asked.

“Is Konohamaru here?”

Ebisu adjusted his sunglasses, a habit he did when he knew something bad was about to be realized “No.”

Sarutobi instantly became worried, but before he could say what everyone knew he was about to say, Kabuto started acting strangely. “Oh, excuse me. I have to make a phone call…Storm preparations and things of that nature…Oh, and I also have to check on my wife.” Kabuto quickly walked out of the room…even though they knew he didn’t have a wife.

They left before the sun came up that day An exit to eternal summer slacking
! - !- !
! - ! - !

They weren’t focused on that though “Go find him, quickly.”

Ebisu nodded abruptly and rushed out of the room.

! -! -!

“Heh heh, by the time Ebisu gets here we’ll be long gone.” Naruto said with a grin.

“Come on dobe, lets go.” Sasuke called from the door.

“Alright here I come.” Naruto called back from the bed room. Konohamaru was already in the car, Sasuke was on his way down, and Naruto didn’t know exactly why he was still here.

He looked around his bedroom, knowing he was about to leave and trying to decide what to take with him. It couldn’t be a lot and he had to be quick about it. But just looking at this place and knowing he was leavening brought up so many memories.

!- !- !
!- ! - !

After another bad day at school, Naruto found himself walking angrily in to his bed room. It had been 2 months since Sasuke had started staying with him. It was…interesting, they hadn’t killed each other yet and after each argument everything was if it never happened. So all in all….Naruto found himself getting used to it and actually liking his life right now.

! - !- !
! - ! - !
But where were they going Without ever knowing the way? They drank up the wine
! - ! - !
! - !- !

But not today.

Naruto walked over to his bed and let himself fall face first into the soft sheets. Sasuke walked in after him, tossing his book bag aside and sitting on the bed. “What’s with you dead-last?”

“Nothing, just leave me the hell alone.” Naruto said with his face still planted in the bed.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow, he never that that bad of a response initially, something must have been wrong. ‘Mmmm.” Sasuke folded his arms and looked towards the other boy, that small outburst made him realize that he was beginning to know Naruto well enough to read his reactions.

! - !- !
! - ! - !
And they got to talking They now had more important things to say
! - ! - !
! - !- !

Which would make sense, they spent 90% of their time together. Which gave Sasuke an amusing thought, one amusing enough to make him laugh out loud. That sound made Naruto turn enough to look at him through the corner of his eye. “What’s so funny?”

Sasuke really didn’t feel like saying something that could instigate an augment right now, he never did when Naruto was in a bad mood. “I was just thinking…since were always together most of the time. And how everyone is always trying to be my friend…”

“And how everyone hates me--” Naruto said “And that really stupid look they get on there face when they see us together.” When he thought about it, Naruto couldn’t help but laugh.

“Exactly.” Sasuke said, shaking his head. Neither of them never realized how funny it was, they’d have to pay more attention next time.

Naruto turned his head completely, looking at the wall. “You know, I want to see it again.”

“What?”

! - ! - !
!- ! - !
And when the car broke down They started walking Where were they going without ever knowing the way?
! - ! - !
! - !- !

“That look.”

Sasuke got up, “Let’s go then.”

“Huh? Really?” Naruto sat up.

“Yeah, Let’s go.”

“Well….” Naruto heard his stomach growl. “I am kinda hungry.”

“Your always hungry.” Sasuke smirked.

“No I’m not.”

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And It's always summer, they'll never get cold
! - ! - !
!- ! - !

“Yes you are.” Sasuke said, taping Naruto’s stomach “It’s like a pit, I’ve never seen anything like it. I think I could fit in there.”

“Keep tapping and you’ll find out.”

! - ! - !
! - ! -!

“Heh heh.” Naruto smirked and rubbed his head, finding himself blushing at all of the memories he had of this bedroom. He wouldn’t mind having more of them here…”Maybe later.”

Naruto decided to take nothing and walked out of his room, closing the door behind him. “…” He stopped in the small corridor separating the Bedroom, the bathroom and the kitchen. Even this place brought back memories.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !

Sasuke sighed and lent against the wall with laptop in hand, letting himself slide down into a sitting position. It had been 2 years since he had been staying here, not one day was he here with out Naruto…until today. The first day of 2 weeks Naruto would be gone. He was out on an testing mission, a final for school, his last test of the year.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They'll Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

If he past this he’d finally be a solder, and Naruto had been extremely excited about it. Sasuke passed this test a half a year ago for his Mid-term. Naruto took the test them but due to circumstances beyond his control…yeah, he didn’t pass. But this time he had Iruka for a teacher so they could be sure it would be fair this time.

Sasuke promised him they’d celebrate when he passed, but that was 2 weeks away. It seemed like nothing yesterday when he left, but today he missed the loud, hyperactive Uzumaki Naruto. A lot.

Sasuke sat his laptop on his lap and turned it on.

Naruto, where are you, are you ok? How’s it going?

;;Sasuke

You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They won't make it home

! - ! - !

Sasuke sent the message with some hope that he would get it today and have time to reply, he was surprised when Naruto sent him another message 30 seconds later.

Naruto: I’m ok, Iruka’s rrrreallyyyyy tough but I’m doing fine.
Sasuke: Good.
Naruto:
Sasuke: What?
Naruto: I really miss you.
Sasuke:
Sasuke: Me too.
Naruto: : )
Sasuke: Heh.
Naruto: Heh Heh.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
But they really don't care They wanted the highway
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

Sasuke:
Naruto: What is it?
Sasuke: I--
Naruto: Oh crap, looks like my break is over. Sorry, I have to go…Damn and we were just getting started.
Sasuke: Good look.
Naruto: Thanks.
Sasuke: We’re still going to celebrate when you get back, so you better pass dobe.
Naruto: Yeah alright.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !

“Hmmm…..” Naruto smiled, it seemed like most of the good things in his life happened here. With a shrug Naruto walked down the hall, going past the Bathroom on his way. He couldn’t help but stop and look inside, his eyes drawn immediately to the shower with a devilish grin.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They're happy there today , today The children woke up
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

With a sigh Naruto reached into the shower and turned on the water, carefully holding out his arm with each adjustment of the water to get it to the perfect temperature. Then he pulled back, lifting his orange shirt over his head and tossing it aside. Then pulling down his black pants and kicking them over by his shirt.

With a soft sigh he eased himself out of boxers, then stepped into the warm water of the shower. After trudging through the snow of Konoha’s winter, snow that was a foot deep, Naruto felt like a complete idiot right now. He walked all the way to school by himself, only to find it was closed for a snow day and rightfully so.

He just wished someone would have told him…which brought of the question of where was Sasuke? After 4 years of living with the stoic boy he wondered why Sasuke wasn’t there when he woke up, Didn’t matter right now. Naruto only focused on taking that quick shower which he was tempted to stay in until the hot water ran out. But he managed to resist the temptation and got out, reaching for a towel on the rack and began padding himself dry.

Running the towel through his hair, Naruto walked out of the bathroom into his bedroom.

“Hi Naruto.”

“Whaaaaa!” Naruto jumped when he saw Konohamaru standing next to his bed looking at him. “What are you doing here?”

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
And they couldn't find 'em They Left before the sun came up that day
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

“Looking for something I left yesterday.” He said plainly, “Calm down, not like I never seen you naked before.”

“You shouldn’t have saw me those times.” Naruto said, going through his drawers for something dry to wear. He quickly found something suitable.

“Got it.” Konohamaru said, shoving the lost item into his pocket. “Hey Naruto, what’s that mark on--”

“Don’t ask, I’m not going to tell you.” Naruto said, the same thing he always said when Konohamaru asked that question. The boy just shrugged and walked outside, leaving Naruto to get dressed.

He quickly finished getting dressed, making sure he grabbed his orange coat before going out side. “Where the hell did Sasuke go?” Naruto said softly, looking around the snowy-- “Uufh.” Naruto was struck with a snowball the size of his head in his back.

He quickly turned around to see Konohamaru…with his head buried in the snow and Sasuke a few feet away with his back turned apparently looking at something else. ‘You can’t fool me.’ Naruto said to himself, grinning sheepishly while he knelt down and began rolling up a snowball. “Hey Sasuke!”

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They just drove off And left it all behind 'em
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

Sasuke turned around, only to be hit in the face by a snowball, “What are you doing dobe?” Sasuke asked annoyedly, wiping the snow from his face and shaking it out of his hair. He zipped up the black coat he was wearing and glared at Naruto, who was pointing at him and laughing.

Only to be pelted with another large snowball that knocked him over. Konohamaru started laughing at him, making it apparent that he was the one that threw the snowball in the first place. Naruto reached back, clinching a mass of snow and tossing it at Konohamaru, the boy ducked, watching it fly over his head and hit Sasuke in the chest

“Uh…” Naruto climbed to his feet, watching Konohamaru laugh harder and Sasuke look madder. “Sorry--” Before he could finish his sentence he got a mouth full snow this time he was sure was thrown by Sasuke.

Naruto spit out the snow angrily, quickly scooping two snow balls with both hands and throwing them at Konohamaru and Sasuke. Konohamaru was hit in the chest but Sasuke dodged it.

Konohamaru and Sasuke glanced over at each other and nodded. Before Naruto could notice it, both Sasuke and Konohamaru started throwing a furry of Snowballs at Naruto. “Hey-Ugh-No fair!” Naruto ran behind at tree, watching the balls fly past him.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
But Where were they going Without ever knowing the way? Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

Naruto jumped out from behind the tree, tossing a snow ball at Sasuke and another one at Konohamaru, giving himself enough time to get closer, close enough to rush Sasuke send both of them tumbling to the ground. Sasuke looked up at him “No fair.”

! - ! - !
! - ! - !

With a soft sigh Naruto walked out of the hallway in to the kitchen, “…” He walked immediately to the refrigerator, looking around inside not really to take anything, just to look at, like everything else Naruto’s food was separate from Sasuke. On the left side was mostly Ramen, clearly Naruto’s.

On the right was a more balanced assortment, mostly healthy food. This was obviously Sasuke’s side, there was even a small part in the middle where Konohamaru put some things. Mostly junk food since he didn’t get much of it…any of it at all at home.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !

5 years, 5 whole years today. Sasuke just barely thought about that as he woke up at 9 in the morning and was unable to fall asleep again. He rolled over in the bed and glanced at Naruto sleeping beside him, though he never admit it he really loved him. It didn’t take him 5 years to realize that, or the fact that every year life with him seemed to get better and better.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
And It's always summer, they'll never get cold They'll Never get hungry
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

Sasuke pulled the covers off of him and got out of bed, feeling a small chill in the air since he was completely naked. Which was the only reason Sasuke reached for his pants on the floor. With a small yawn he walked out of the bed room, down the hall into the kitchen.

“Huh?” There was a knock on the door, Sasuke shrugged and walked across the kitchen and opened it. He found Konohamaru and Iruka standing on the other side

“Hi Sasuke.” Konohamaru said cheerfully, walking into the familiar room.

“Hello.” Iruka said with his usual friendly tone.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They'll never get old and gray You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

“What are you two doing here?” Sasuke closed the door behind them.

“Did you pass?” Konohamaru asked anxiously.

Sasuke looked at them, Konohamaru was clearly referring to his final test in police academy. It usually took two years to complete but Sasuke got to the end of the course in little under a year. He nodded.

“That’s great.” Konohamaru said with a large smile, “And you finished really early, Sasuke your amazing!”

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They Won't make it home But they really don't care
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

“Come on, Let’s go celebrate.” Iruka said, which was clearly the reason he came all the way over here. Sasuke couldn’t help but think what a nice guy he was, not the type of person that seemed suited to be in the air force, let alone the top pilot in his class. “Where’s Naruto?”

“Asleep.” Sasuke said. Naruto never really got up early on the weekends, and today was Saturday.

“Wake him up, I’m sure he wont want to miss this.” Iruka said with a smile. Sasuke began wondering what he had planed, Iruka wasn’t the type of person to do a half job, when he said he was going to celebrate he no doubt had something special planned.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !

Naruto closed the refrigerator, deciding to leave before he had any more flashbacks. He walked to the open door wondering how Sasuke felt about Iruka, he’d done a lot for both of them. He decided he’d just have to ask him, stopping to take one last look back. He never realized how much he loved this place, it actually made him a little sad to leave. This place. It was like his isolation from the world, everything good that ever happened to him happened here.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They wanted the highway They're happy there today , today
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

He really did love this place.

Naruto sighed, he decided to leave everything here, just to make sure no matter what happened he’d come back. “I hope the storm doesn’t mess this place up.” He said to himself, turning off the light and closing the door.

! - ! - !

‘Damnit! Where is Konohamaru?!’ Ebisu said to himself, this was the only time he never got a trace of him. Finally he came to the very last place he could be, Ebisu walked into Naruto’s home, only to find it empty.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
Anyone could see The road that they walk on is paved in gold And It's always summer, they'll never get cold
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

! - ! - !

“Heh heh.” Konohamaru laughed as he looked back at the city from the rearview window. He could hardly see it from the rain, considering that they were leaving Konoha from the east and the storm was coming from the north.

Konohamaru lent forward, looking over at Naruto in the front seat with his hands resting behind his head. And at Sasuke who was driving.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
They'll Never get hungry They'll never get old and gray
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

The clouds started to become more scattered letting through rays of sun on the wet road. “I can’t believe we actually made it. My grandfather is going to be really mad when I get back.” Konohamaru said.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
You can see their shadows Wandering off somewhere They Won't make it home
! - ! - !
! - ! - !

“I almost feel sorry for Ebisu…almost.” Naruto smirked and looked out the window at the hills outside of the city.

Sasuke looked around him, there was absolutely no traffic on the road, and the rain had stopped completely. He flipped and switch, lowering the top on the black car and letting the wind in. “I wonder how fast this thing can really go.”

Naruto looked over at him, “I sooo have to drive this thing.”

Sasuke smirked, shifting gears and accelerating on the open road.

! - ! - !
! - ! - !
But they really don't care They wanted the highway They're happy there today , today
