((Recap))


“Why did you try to.. to.. kill yourself? Did I do something wrong? Do you hate me that much?” Sasuke repeated with a grim look on his face and his eyes on the car’s floor, the pain leaking through on every word. Naruto couldn’t believe that Sasuke had thought that he was the reason.

"Sa-Sasuke? Wh-What do you mean?" the blonde asks, worry seeping into his voice. At this response, Sasuke quickly jerks his head towards Naruto, and that's when Naruto notices. Sasuke's eyes, full of turmoil. Over him...

"You heard me! Do you hate me?! Is that why you tried to kill yourself?!" He shouts to Naruto, trying to keep his emotions in check, but failing miserably at it. Hurt, anger, sadness, and turmoil all clear through his eyes, as if they were mirrors into his soul.

Naruto, not having expected the outburst and seeing the emotions, had jumped back in his seat and was leaning on the car's door as if it were all that kept him there. And Sasuke saw something in Naruto's eyes. Was it fear? Was Naruto afraid of him like this..? His eyes widened in realization, and he quickly mummer a quiet "sorry", grabbed his things and left the car, Naruto still in the car as he entered the house.

When Naruto heard the front door close, he regained control over himself and started to silently cry as he hugged his knees to his chest. Little drops started to patter onto the car's roof, soon turning into a strong, fluent sound of water colliding into the roof as another storm started up. To Naruto, he felt that the sky could understand him for once and was crying with him. It was comforting. So he continued crying there ing the car, all alone. And for another hour, thats all he did.

When he decided that he had cried long enough, he released his legs and harshly wiped his face with the palm of his hand. Naruto noticed that it had stopped raining and sighed. He took another few minutes to collect himself before he stepped out of the car, walked down the pathway and into his home. He pulled off his shoes and placed them by the door before he went inside.

While making his way upstairs, he heard something. Sasuke was quietly crying, or at least trying to be quiet. He couldn't understand why. Then he also noticed that Sasuke was talking to someone over the phone.

"He's afraid of me! I saw it in his eyes myself.."

"Sasuke-kun, he's not afraid of you.. He's just a little shaken. He's unstable right now. You have to give him some time, he'll be the old Naruto in no time." A female voice said comfortingly.

'Speaker phone, eh? That's not like him.. Then again, he's a lot different now..' Naruto thought, but quick

"Sakura, I just, I just don't know what to do anymore.."

"What do you mean, Sasuke-kun?"

"I.. I think he might have done it.. Because of me."

"Sasuke! Don't even say things like that! He-"

"Sakura. I'm serious.. When I asked him about it, all he did was put on his fake smile and say it was nothing and he told me not to worry about it..! Sakura.. What should I do..?"

"I don't know, Sasuke-kun. I'm sorry..." Another women's voice in the background tells Sakura to hurry up. "All right, Ino! I'll be right there!" Sakura calls back. "I'm so sorry, Sasuke-kun, but I have to go to my job with Ino now, I promise I'll call you back tomorrow, okay?"

"All right, I'll talk to you later.." And Sasuke hangs up the phone. Out of anger, he grabs the pillow to his side, and chucks it at the wall, creating a mini-creator where it collided. He roughly wiped his tears and he pulled the covers over and went to sleep.

Naruto lingered at the door for what seemed like forever, but then headed back downstairs when he heard Sasuke's breath even out. He then made his way into the kitchen and plopped down into one of the chairs at the table. Grief filled him as he reflected on the previous events. Then at the back of his head, Kyuubi started to nag at him. He simply sighed and used a technique that he had read about in a book, where you create a second body, even if it was unstable. "Shadow Bushin.." And a figure that looked much like him appeared across the table from him.

Kyuubi looked like a twin to Naruto, though some of the things were a little different. Kyuubi had rust colored slited eyes and rust colored hair to match, which looked very unkempt and tousled and spiky like Naruto's. He was wearing a similar outfit to Naruto's, which was a plain white tee and a pair of jeans, but his shirt was black and his jeans were a darker shade of the denim. He also had a tail that resembled that of a fox's, and it too was the same rusty color as his hair and eyes. The only thing that the two boys seemed to have in common was the three scars on each side of their face.

"Kit?"

"What do you want?"

"Somebody's moody tonight. Is it because of that Uchiha boy?"

Silence.

"I thought so. So, when are we gonna go through with it?"

"I'm not sure if I want to anymore, Kyuu.."

"WHAT?! We have to! We can't stay here anymore! Think how angry they'll be at us! They'll never forgive us if we don't leave now!"

"I don't care about them anymore! I... I'm just making Sasuke sad... Killing myself won't help him. He's already lost so much, Kyuu. I'll never be able to forgive myself if something were to happen to him. I just can't leave him alone like that. It's just not right."

"I don't care about what's right and what's not, Kit! I want to leave this god-forsaken place and meet up with them!"

"So you would rather me give up my friends so you can be with yours?"

"In a word, yes."

At that, the room became uncomfortably silent.

"But Naruto, that's why we do need to lea..." And Kyuubi trailed off, staring directly behind Naruto with wide eyes. Naruto noticed this, and turned to see what Kyuubi had become so fixated on. When he saw, he also froze in place, wide eyed. There, in the entree way of the kitchen, was a wide eyed Sasuke. For a few minutes, an uncomfortable silence reigned over them. When Naruto felt he could trust his voice, he said what was on both his and Kyuubi's mind.

"What did you hear?"

"Ever since that one," He points to Kyuubi, "started to talk to you." At that, Naruto and Kyuubi look at each other warily. Sasuke continued to watched how they reacted. "What's going on here? Why does that other kid look so much like like you, Naruto?!" He nearly shouted at the the blonde, confusion and fear mixed in his face.

He winced at the tone in Sasuke's voice and looked at the floor, and Sasuke saw this. That only made him furious. Sasuke walked over to Naruto, and just as his hand was about to meet Naruto's face in a slap, Kyuubi was standing next to him and had grabbed his fist. Sasuke was startled, to say the least.

"My name is Kyuubi. I hope you weren't intending on hitting the little Kit here, or else I would have to hurt you," Kyuubi strengthens his grip on Sasuke's wrist, "Even If you are his lover, Uchiha boy."
