Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or it's characters. But we all know Naruto would be MUCH SADDER if I did, so lets keep it this way, shall we? Pft

Sasuke dashed into the spacious hotel room, "Naru!" Sasuke shouted.
"Sasuke?" Naruto says, looking at him worriedly, now standing at the edge of the bed. "What happened?" Naruto asks.
"No time to explain, we have to go, now." Sasuke said hurriedly, already starting to shove their things back into their luggage.
"Go? Go where??" Naruto questioned, confused.
"Anywhere. Away from here. Now." Sasuke said, his voice rushed and hiding.
"What- we have to go to school in two days! We can't just leave!" Naruto shouts, following the raven around the hotel room.
"Naruto- school is NOT important. We have other priorities!" Sasuke says, turning on his heel and gripping the blonde's shoulders. Sasuke's usual calm onyx eyes, where now wide and... terrified. Naruto isn't sure what scared him more, Sasuke's secretiveness, or his eyes.
"Sasuke.... W-what's going on...?" Naruto stuttered, swallowing thickly as the raven let go of his shoulders to run his fingers through his raven hair.
Sasuke sighs, looking down, "There was an outbreak... And your father hasn't been accounted for... He is either dead, or he snuck out." Sasuke says, looking up at Naruto. Naruto's face was wide with shock, looking at Sasuke with terrified blue eyes. "Naruto, listen to me. We need to get out of here, your father probably knows we are here. So Itachi arranged to meet up in a hotel a few towns over, ok? I need you to help me so we can get out of here." Sasuke said, Naruto nodding numbly and the two slowly start to pick you.

Once they were in the car and starting to drive down the winding road, there was a heavy silence in the car, making Naruto sigh and turning on the CD that was on earlier.
'I can hold my breath
I can bite my tongue
I can stay awake for days,
If that's what you want
Be your number one.

I can fake a smile
I can force a laugh
I can dance and play the part
If that's what you ask
Give you all I am

I can do it
I can do it
I can do it

But I'm only human
And I bleed when I fall down
I'm only human
And I crash and I break down
Your words in my head, knives in my heart
You build me up and then I fall apart
'Cause I'm only human----"

The song was suddenly cut off, "How about something a little happier?" Sasuke suggests, playing the next song on the disc

"So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating,
And the soul reason I keep believing,
That we're gonna die like this you know, oh oh oh.

A'beat, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,
A'beat, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,

Hey, hey, beautiful, the sunshine
Shines oh oh so bright, alright.
Laid back I'll spend the night just staring at, you.

For every grain of sand, that you drew me pictures in.
There was one for every time that my, my heart dropped again.

So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating.
And the soul reason I keep believing,
That we're gonna die like this you know, oh oh oh.

Heart, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,

Close your eyes, don't say a word.
You're way too beautiful, you heard.
The way, the way my heart keeps beating,
beating b'beat beat beating.

For every grain of sand, that you drew me pictures in.
There was one for every time that my, my heart dropped again.

So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating.
And the soul reason I keep believing,
That we're gonna die like this you know, oh oh oh.

So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating.
And the soul reason I keep believing,
That we're gonna die like this you know, oh oh oh.

A'beat, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,
A'beat, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,
A'beat, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,
A'beat, beat, b'beat, beat, beating,

So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating.
beating, beating, beating.

So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating.
And the soul reason I keep believing,
That we're gonna die like this you know, oh oh oh.

So baby keep my heart beat b'beat beat beating.
And the soul reason I keep believing,
That we're gonna die like this you know, oh oh oh.
(For every grain of sand, that you drew me pictures in)
(There was one for every time that my)"

Naruto smiled, looking at Sasuke, "That was awesome." Naruto smiles softly, as Sasuke nods in confirmation. The next song plays.

'How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become--'

The song slowly stops as Sasuke does, pulling into yet another hotel parking lot several towns over, officially 9 and a half hours from Konoha.
Naruto wasn't sure how he felt about the whole thing, but he was sure that he didn't want to see his father anytime soon, but he didn't know if this was the way to go about it. It was his last year of highschool. He didn't want to spend the year running from his father, there was no memory in that. But Sasuke wanted to keep him safe, and Naruto wouldn't take that from him.
Naruto sighed, unbuckling and getting out of the car with Sasuke. The two walking inside and checking in once again, finding that Itachi had already done so, they both grab their bags and walk to the elevator, rising to the top floor.

Opening the door, "Hello?" Itachi called from inside the room, the raven walked around the corner, a gun strong within his fingers as he aimed it at Sasuke and Naruto.
"Woah, calm down, just us." Sasuke says, raising his hands in a form of relaxation.
Itachi sighs and gestures for them to come in.
