Dear heart |
“...Can I at least say goodbye?” she asked in a small
broken voice as Koharu’s face softened slightly.
Sakura had always
believed that team 7 would find Sasuke and live on forever.
“Of course, just make sure not to give anything away.” The
female elder stated as her male counterpart looked ready to refuse. Seeing his
look she continued in a slightly more menacing tone “If you leak any
information to them, any at all, I can promise you that your family and friends
will pay the price.” Taking in a deep
shuddering breath Sakura watched as Homura picked up the unravelled scroll and
held it over the closest candle.
“I swear” she promised as the paper caught light, the now
burning scroll reflected in her broken eyes as a lone tear slowly made its way
down her porcelain cheek.
But she was wrong, so
very wrong.
‘I’m sorry Naruto,
there’s nothing I can do.’ She thought briefly as she watched the elders
stand and slowly vacate the room without a single look back at the silently
sobbing girl. ‘Oh gods Naruto, I’m so
sorry-Please don’t hate me!’
Team 7 would never be
complete again, no matter how hard Naruto tried to glue them back together.
“Please forgive me, for everything I’m about to do.” she
pleaded to the smiling Naruto and Sai her mind produced, all of them standing
in their training field as Kakashi read his little orange book. “Please forgive
me…”
They were shattered,
millions of pieces scattered across the shinobi nations, never to return to how
they once were. Never to smile, laugh, tease or spar with each other again, no
matter how much they wished for it.
That peaceful dream was over.
