So Long
For so long,
I have waited,
here so patiently.
Waiting for that day,
that day that
you would,
come back
to that home
that you once had
and meet me
once more
In the heat of
a battle.
A battle that
test and burised us
so harshly.

Ever since Sakura had left so gleefully, he hadn't moved or said a word. The shock of the news that was delivered to him was a bit much. He looked down at his hands, and with those hands he brought one of them to the base of his neck, merely touching that curse mark that Orochimaru had left on him. He winced at the memory, that last memory that he had with Naruto, a fight that could end all fights, although he wound up being the victor in that, the temptation that burned inside of him made it unsatifying. He had wanted to go to Orochimaru, because he felt that the boy before him was weak and his defeating him alone was meaningless.
He remembered how he walked through the streets of the village, in search of the man that he was going to join, but he met with someone else, Sakura. Sakura, he thought back to how that was last time she would even call him Sasuke-kun and started to call him Uchiha-san, maybe it was because he used his Sharigan to make her sleep and make her believe that he was long gone.

He stood in the middle of what was Naruto's one room apartment, staring down at the picture of Kakashi's Squad 7. "Where is he," he asked under his breath, the raven haired boy wanted the blonde to know that he was staying and not going anywhere. He didn't know why it matter for Naruto to know that very minute, he was bound to find out when they saw each other for their next training session. He hadn't even noticed that the time had passed by so quickly, as the night sky started to form in a whirl of pink, orange and blue.
Shaking his head, as he left his teammates apartment, in a shock that he wouldn't have been there all day long. Not paying any mind to where he was going he knocked right into a green vest, looking up he was met by Kakashi. To him it seemed like he was smiling down on him, and he shook his head slightly, "Sensei, you wouldn't happen to know where Naruto is?"
"Naruto," Kakashi asked back to make sure Sasuke was really asking about his own teammate, he looked down at the young man and watched as he nodded up and down quickly. "Oh he has gone off with Jiriaya to train with him," Kakashi said in a cool voice, in an attempt to hide the emotion that was really in it.
Sasuke blinked as he walked past the jounin, was he in shock of the news delivered to him so coolly. He's gone, he questioned bitterly in the back of his mind, as he clutched his fist slightly, he thought of Naruto as the only reason he was even able to get stronger as a ninja. If I am his eternal rival, why the hell did he leave, he asked himself as he bit his lips slightly, then he nodded. His answer came as he thought back to the night before, "to get stronger, not for me but for himself."
He let a small smile cross his lips as he turned around to see Kakashi was only a few steps away from him, "Kakashi-sensei?"
Kakashi turned around to face Sasuke one last time, and blinked at the smile that crossed the young Uchiha's face, "yes, Sasuke."
"You wouldn't mind training with me tommorrow, I mean...you know since Naruto is gone, you can focus all that time you wanted to..on me," Sasuke asked the jounin expectantly.
Kakashi nodded and waved his hand in the air, "of course I would do that, just meet me at the field at 9 am, not a minute later."
Sasuke nodded and bit back a laugh, knowing full well that he was going to show up at 9, but the jounin as always would be fashionably late.

Present
Itachi watched carefully as Naruto walked through the street of Konoha, but not as Naruto weaved a path to his apartment, but to the of Sasuke's. He squinted his eyes, as he followed after the kyuubi container so sliently and utterly undectable. He thought everything was going to be quiet and normal, but in the distance her heard that squeal of a young girl and watched a blur of pink ran straight to Naruto and hugged him tightly.
"Naruto," the pink haired girl said so sweetly to the Kyuubi container, wrapping her arm around the blond's neck so tightly. Such an action that made Itachi smirk a bit, as he found it as a good opprotunity to discover one of Naruto's weaknesses. "I just heard that you were returning today," the girl said with a small giggle, and then continued, "I couldn't contain it too much, and I told just about everyone, including Sasuke."
Naruto blinked a bit, along with Itachi as he heard Naruto speak what his thoughts were exactly, "he didn't leave with Orochimaru, Sakura?"
Sakura, so that is her name,I think that I will remember that, he assesses quietly in the confines of his mind as he continued to listen in on the conversation between Naruto and Sakura. "Nope, but I am not here to talk about Sasuke," Sakura said quickly in return.
"Really, well that is new, because when I left, the world according to you revovled around the Uchiha," Naruto said as he rubbed the back of his head quickly. "So I am guessing that if I went to go see him, the surprise would be ruined because of you?"
Sakura nodded quickly in response and then asked, "so what did you learn out there, with Jiriaya?"
"Why do you want to know, so you can ruin the surprise for Sasuke when I meet him in battle again," he asked as he walked, no ran past Sakura to go straight to the apartment he was intent on finding.

He ran through the streets of Konoha intent on finding his best friend and rival, just to see if what Sakura had said was true. Bursting through the the doors of the apartment complex that Sasuke had called home he sprinted up the steps, running straight for the door he remembered as Sasuke and knocked loudly. He smiled wide as he heard the locks turn and unbolt from its snug confines. As the door opened he bobbed on his heels waiting to see the image of the Uchiha. As the door was completely open there he stood face to face with his rival and friend, and then punched his squarly in the face. He watched as Saskue flew the wall on the other side of the apartment.
He stood in the doorway, he stood proudly as he heard Sasuke's rushing footstep toward him and then ducked as the Uchiha went to go punch back, causing the dark haired teen to punch a hole through the wall behind him. "Good to see you again, too."
Naruto took in mind the slight growl that came from Sasuke, "idiot. I guess, we are going to pick up from where we left off last time, huh?"
For so long,
I have waited,
here so patiently.
Waiting for that day,
that day that
you would,
come back
to that home
that you once had
and meet me
once more
In the heat of
a battle.
A battle that
