Silent laughter

Power of hatred

*Naruto's POV

I knocked Sasuke out, and watched as the curse mark receded

'That's not his power' I thought to myself as I leaned his body up against a near by tree. He looked at peace as he lied there unconscious for what seemed like the first time ever. I sat down next to him and put a blade of grass in my mouth. I chewed on it as I zoned out and stared at the sky. After a few hours I broke out of my stare as I heard Sasuke move next to me. I saw him open his eyes and I looked down at him. His eyes filled with anger as the memories of our battle came back to him. He rolled over to face away from me. He didn't say anything or do anything until Kakashi sensei came back with Sakura.

"Done already" He asked. I nodded my head and stood up stretching after stilling for a while.

"How did it go" He whispered to me as Sakura ran over to Sasuke and started fussing over him. I shock my head no saying that we would talk about it later. He nodded and walked over to Sasuke and began giving him some advice. Once Kakashi was done Sasuke and Sakura were dismissed leaving me and Kakashi.

"What went wrong" He asked. I pointed to the back of my neck 

(The mark) I told him. His eyes were filled with worry.

"I thought I sealed it away" He said. He stood there for a minute mumbling for himself. I pulled on his sleeve as He started pacing. 

(Dad) I said to him.

"No he Sasuke won't let him help I have already tried" He said. He told me that I was done for the day so I started on my way home. 

'Why did he rely on that power' I thought to myself as I walked throught the front door  of my house. I got some Ramen from a cup and ate by myself thinking about Sasuke.

'He needs help' I thought as I finished eating. I threw my hoodie on, and rushed outside. I ran through the silent streets of the village with pit in my stomach.

'I maybe to late' I thought as I rushed into the apartment building that Sasuke lives in and rushed up to his room. I knocked on the door, and got no answer. I tried again with the same results. I kicked the door down, and rushed into a dark room. 

'Damn I am to late' 

*Sasuke's POV

I woke up leaning up against a tree. I looked up to see Naruto sitting against another tree. What happened during our fight washed over me and I rolled over in shame.

'I still couldn't beat him' I thought 'DAMN IT' I yelled at myself as I pounded my fist into the ground. It was maybe another half an hour until Kakashi came back with Sakura. I stood up as he asked Naruto how our fight went. I tuned out their conversation as Sakura came over to me and started fussing. Kakashi gave me a motivational speech and I went home

'DAMN IT, DAMN IT, DAMN IT' I yelled the entire way home. I walked in slamming the door behind me

"You couldn't beat him could you" a voice said as Itachi emerged from the dark. I didn't answer his question, and just continued to take my gear off

"You even tried to use Orochimaru's power didn't you" He said laughing. I gritted my and growled

"Why is he so strong" I whispered

"Because of a mistake made years ago, but you will fix it" Itachi said walking over to me "Come with me, so you can get strong enough"

I didn't hesitate

"Yes" I told him. a smile spread across his face as he rushed out the window that he must have came in. I rushed out with him forgetting to grab my gear. As I took the first step out the window I heard someone knock on the door. I could feel his chakra outside

'no more' I thought jumping out the window and followed my brother out of the village.

*Naruto's POV

'Damn it i'm to late' I thought as I ran around the house hoping to find a clue to where he was. All of his stuff was here and the window was open

'He left in a hurry' I thought as a burning sensation filled my throat 'It's him' I thought as I jumped out the window and ran to find them. As I neared them I could feel the burning sensation getting stronger as I went deeper into the woods. I was running as fast as I could to catch up. The burning was almost unbearable, but I didn't care.

'I need to help him' I thought as I saw two bodies come into view 

'There' I yelled as I threw my kunai at them. The kunai flew between the two of them. Both of their heads turned in shock as the kunai came into view. In their moment of shock I teleported to the kunai. I kicked Sasuke down towards the ground. As he hit the ground his body recoiled back bouncing off the ground. I threw my kunai into the ground where I teleported and kicked him in his side while he was still in the air. He hit a tree when I started running towards him. I was met half way there  by Itachi. I stumbled back as his sharigan flashed at me, and the burning feeling in my throat spread throughout my body. I fumbled back from the pain while Sasuke kicked me in my stomach. I went flying backwards where Itachi was now behind me, and punched my back making me lose feeling throughout my entire body. I rolled across the ground before falling off an edge of a cliff. I fell hopelessly before hitting a  body of water. I regained feeling in my body as freezing water filled my lungs. I swam back up to the surface and gasped for air. I looked up to see both of the remaining Uchiha's jumping down weaving hand signs.

"FIRE STYLE: FIRE BALL JUTSU" they both yelled as their fireball combined making one the size of a house. I ducked back into the water hoping that the water would take must of the blow. It didn't. I could feel the cloths on my back burn along with skin. I tried to scream out in pain but my lungs were filed with water again. I swam to the nearby shore and began coughing up water. No one could see since the fireball evaporated the water so the entire air was filled with steam. I stood up as the steam cleared. I could see both of them on the other side of a river. Both of them had their sharingans activated. I tried to stand up strait but couldn't from the pain

'well it's one against two' I thought as I smirked at them while whipping the blood from my mouth

'This will be fun'
