Taiyo: Sun and Flame Chronicles (A Naruto Shippuden Story)

Chapter 29: A Team's Reunion and The Three Fates

It's been a few hours since Naruto collapsed due to the stress, Taiyo had been sitting with him ever since and waited for his brother to wake up. The teen thought back on Sakura's words and decided that it was time to go find her, he stood up and headed for the door.

???: And just where are you going?

Taiyo already knew it was his father talking to him.

Taiyo: I have to find her Kakashi or else Sasuke will kill her

Kakashi: I should handle him, he was originally my student and my responsibility

Taiyo: (Sighs) I know, but he's my brother, so he's my responsibility now

Kakashi: Are you gonna kill him?

Taiyo: (Frowns) I don't know...Everything that's happened has made me question what I should really do

Kakashi: What does your heart say?

Taiyo: My heart tells me to save him, but something else inside me tells me to end him for what he's done

Kakashi: I'll let you decide what to do, you're strong kid and I know you'll make the right decision

Taiyo: (Smiles slightly) You just know how to lighten things up, don't ya?

Kakashi: It's my job as your father. Once Naruto wakes up, we'll meet you at the location

Taiyo: Right!

The teen leaves the hotel and runs to location he can sense Sakura's chakra from.

(A few hours later)
On a bridge a few miles away from the summit, Sasuke and Sakura stood across from each other.

Sasuke: What do you want?

Sakura: I've come to join you! I've betrayed the Leaf and want to join you!

Sasuke: Prove it by killing this woman right here

He pointed to his red headed teammate, who was stabbed by him a few minutes prior.

Sakura: (Confused) Isn't she your teammate?!

Sasuke: Not anymore, now do it!

Sakura went up to the downed woman and took out her kunai.

Sakura: ("This is my chance, all I have to do is kill him!")

She soon hears a familiar chirping sound coming from behind her.

Sasuke: (Aiming the Chidori) Can't do it?

He thrusts his arm forward at Sakura, but his wrist was grabbed by someone else. Sasuke looked up at the newcomer and his eyes widened.

Taiyo: (Mad) Hey brother, long time no see

Sasuke: (Shocked) Taiyo?!

Sakura: (Relieved) Taiyo!

Sasuke jumped away from the two and glared hard at Taiyo, the orange haired teen glares right back at him.

Sasuke: What are you doing here?!

Taiyo: Well I was just in the neighborhood and saw you almost kill Sakura and I thought I should just stop it. What are you doing here?

Sasuke: I just took care of some business not too long ago

Taiyo: Like some Kage-killing business?

Sasuke: That doesn't concern you!

Taiyo: Of course it does! I care about you man and now look at you, you're fighting Kage and working with the Akatsuki, all for vengeance!
