[Naruto Storyline] Wandering

Back to Konoha, everything is back on track. At this time, it is the early summer of Konoha. The warm wind blows up the crown of the tree, raises the breath of leaves, and the temperature gradually rises.Haruno Sakura, who had already returned to her original unit to report, was also promoted to a higher level because of her participation in the counterpart medical support, and took over the position of vice president.

The intersection of the country of water and Itachi Uchiha melted away in the warm early summer, like a flash in the pan, slowly fading in memory.Just seeing Sasuke's face, Haruno Sakura will think of Itachi - the short time we spent together, now I think about it, there is an incredible feeling, together with the sporadic gunshots at night in the country of water, the corpses all over the ground and the air. The taste of sex is particularly unreal in the serene atmosphere of Konoha.

It was like a dream.

"Looking at me?" Sasuke couldn't help stopping his chopsticks while eating.After returning from the country of water, Haruno Sakura would often stare at him in a daze, and after a while she would give him a sorry smile, then lower her head and go about her own business.Although Xiang Rin no longer wants to come to Sasuke's house like before, there is still a subtle ambiguity between the two of them in the work unit.Sasuke looked at Haruno Sakura's clean eyes in confusion, thinking that he should not have revealed any flaws.

But he still didn't dare to relax. A woman's intuition has always been the most terrifying.

Haruno Sakura picked up a piece of saury with her chopsticks and put it into her bowl, and said, "Well, I just want to see you. After staying in the Land of Water for a year, I still think Konoha is good, and I can see you every day."

Sasuke lowered his head and went to eat: "Let's eat, don't think too much, at least I have returned safely now, besides, the hospital has also been promoted."

"Yeah." Haruno Sakura nodded, and after finishing her meal, she put down her chopsticks and looked at Sasuke expectantly and said, "Tomorrow is the weekend, let's go to the shrine together."

"What are you doing at the shrine?"

"Ask for a child." Haruno Sakura said with a smile.

"Ask for a child?" Sasuke repeated Haruno Sakura's words in a puzzled tone.

"Don't Sasuke want a child?" Haruno Sakura blinked at him. Sasuke put down his chopsticks and looked at his wife who had been married to him for two years. When I was in the country, I always encountered armed conflicts. Several times I felt that I might not be able to return to Konoha alive... But I really want to give Sasuke a child, so that the Uchiha clan can be considered as successors. Isn't it?"

"Alright, then let's go to the shrine to worship tomorrow." Sasuke nodded, although he was not too interested in the idea of ​​asking for a child and marriage, and he had no plans to have a child for the time being, but he still agreed obediently Haruno Sakura's request, "Do I need to wear a formal kimono?" he asked.

"That would be the best!" Haruno Sakura laughed, "I'll wash the dishes first, Sasuke, you can find out the clothes first, and if you need to iron them, just let me do it."

Sasuke nodded.

Although there are not as many shrines in Konoha as in the country of water, each of them has a long history. When it comes to the shrines that pray for children, the Mt. Miaogi Shrine in the south of Konoha is the most famous. It is said that after washing hands, as long as you touch the belly of the huge stone in the shrine devoutly, you will be able to conceive and give birth smoothly.

"Come on, Sasuke, bring the saber." Before leaving the door, Haruno Sakura walked quickly to the study as if thinking of something, and brought the tachi on the desk in the study to Sasuke, "Bring it looks good." She said She pursed her lips at Sasuke, then stretched out her hand to straighten out the small wrinkles of the haori that was outside the kimono.

Looking up from the foot of Mt. Miaogi, the bright red and tall torii meanders to the entrance of the shrine.

Climbing up the stone steps, Sasuke walked in front of Haruno Sakura, and Haruno Sakura followed behind Sasuke. She looked up at Sasuke's back, and for some reason, there appeared in front of her eyes the scene of going to the Mizuno Kuni Kirigakure Shrine with Itachi , Thinking of Itachi's silhouette ringing the bell, thinking of Itachi's gentle and deep voice.Haruno Sakura shook her head vigorously, trying to get rid of the remaining memories about Itachi, so she quickly walked a few steps to catch up with Sasuke. Click to go."

Holding Sasuke's hand made Haruno Sakura feel better. She concentrated on feeling the warmth of the palm of the person in front of her, which made her upset and anxiety slowly disappear from her heart.

In Miaogishan Shrine, the two first put the change that had been prepared in the stone's mouth, and then Sasuke wrapped his arms around Haruno Sakura's waist, motioning her to go forward and touch his belly. "Go, maybe it will work if you touch it." Sasuke's tone was mixed with a narrow smile.

"Of course I want to touch it. This is the blessing of Immortal Miaogi!" Haruno Sakura said with a smile, "Whether it will be effective or not depends on Sasuke."

Sasuke didn't fall asleep very late that night. He didn't know if he was nervous because of Haruno Sakura's desire to have a child, or maybe he couldn't make love with Haruno Sakura on this bed with peace of mind. She couldn't know the real reason why Sasuke couldn't fall asleep, but at this time she had already hugged Sasuke and fell asleep peacefully, making a shallow nasal sound.

Haruno Sakura likes to hug him to sleep, she said it will make her feel safe.Sasuke put his hand gently on Haruno Sakura's arm around his waist, experiencing the different feeling when he was with Xiang Rin, solid, calm and serene, it was this feeling that once pulled Sasuke step by step from the shadow of family destruction Walking out even gave Sasuke a vague expectation of his future life.

Maybe Haruno Sakura is right, he needs a Uchiha heir, this is not only a continuation of the incense, but also a kind of salvation, the birth of a new life may be able to truly rescue him from the shadow of genocide and the indifference of isolating the world.

Sasuke glanced at the photo of him and Haruno Sakura on the bedside. The girl in the photo had a bright smile, just like Somei Yoshino Sakura who was shining like clouds in spring.Just when Sasuke was about to close his eyes, he felt the girl behind him seem to move. Haruno Sakura's hand grabbed the corner of Sasuke's pajamas, and she called out a name vaguely.

"Weasel..."

Sasuke, who had heard Haruno Sakura's sleep clearly, lost all sleepiness and froze involuntarily.

Sasuke didn't want to recall the night when Uchiha wiped out his family, it was an indelible burn mark in his life for him.

It was an ordinary night when he was in junior high school. Sasuke returned home as usual after participating in club activities, but before he reached the door, he had already noticed the difference between today and the past—the entire Uchiha mansion was plunged into darkness , there is no familiar smell of food and paper lanterns lit at the door of the house-the moon is desolate and ominous, surrounded by a halo of blur.Sasuke stopped at the crossroads not far from his home, because he had just heard a scream, which then turned into a small scream.

This voice sounded like his own mother's.

Sasuke was a little panicked, he was clutching the strap of his schoolbag tightly, his feet could not move a step as if they were filled with lead.He stared blankly at Uchiha's closed door, as if the door would open at any moment, and then a man-eating ghost would come out of it.

The door did open, but what came out was not a man-eating ghost, but his most admired brother, Uchiha Itachi.

Itachi's right hand is holding a two-foot-three-inch Taidao. The Taidao is a treasure of the Uchiha family that was placed in the study by his father Uchiha Fuyue. It is known as the blade of Indra. When the blade was turned over, the moonlight left a shining luster like running water along the blade. He was holding a human head in his left hand. Sasuke saw clearly that it was his mother's head through the moonlight.

"Brother..." Itachi raised his hand, and his mother's head rolled to Sasuke's feet, and his mother's gentle eyes were half-opened at this time, and her black and smooth hair was stained with blood and pressed tightly against her cheek. Only the indescribable horror remained.Sasuke was trembling all over, and retreated step by step, until he reached the wall with the Uchiha Uchiha family crest printed on it. He watched the Itachi holding the Indra Blade approaching him, "Brother, did you kill mother?"

Itachi just sneered, his body was splattered with blood, and even solidified into a deep red, only heard a clang, and Indra's blade was deeply embedded in the wall behind Sasuke: "Not just mother, but the whole Uchi The Bo family." Itachi's voice was so erratic, but it was close to his ears, "You should be glad that you escaped."

"Why..." Sasuke could no longer think about how to question Itachi, Itachi looked down at him, exuding a very oppressive aura all over his body.

"I won't kill you." Itachi stared at Sasuke and said, "If you still have a bit of awareness and dignity as a Konoha soldier, then you should commit seppuku suicide, or you should put aside all shame and live desperately. Live until the day you can kill me." Every word Itachi said was like a needle piercing Sasuke's heart, dragging his remaining will to resist into the abyss bit by bit.

Sasuke couldn't speak, he watched Itachi scabbard the Indra Blade, and then slowly walked away.At this moment, Sasuke couldn't stand up anymore, he sat on the ground slumped, the half-opened eyes on the head of the mother at his feet seemed to be looking at him with the deepest pain, Sasuke couldn't help covering his eyes and lay down on the ground crying , Tears flowed down the fingers.

The intense pain and stimulation caused Sasuke to lose consciousness while crying. He didn't see Itachi standing in the distance and turning back quietly. A sadness that he had never seen appeared on Itachi's face, and a tear fell from the corner of Itachi's eyes Down, fleeting in the night.

It was already the next day when Sasuke woke up, and when he regained consciousness, he found himself lying in the intensive care ward of Konoha's Military General Hospital.Sasuke turned over from the bed and walked to the window. Looking out from the window of the intensive care unit on the fifth floor, he could see that the area within two streets around the Uchiha mansion was cordoned off. The military, Anbu and the police all intervened. After this incident, various vehicles surrounded the originally lonely and alienated Uchiha mansion tightly.

The 14-year-old Sasuke stood quietly in front of the window of the intensive care unit. For the first time, he had a strong desire for death. He held the handle of the window and pushed the window out forcefully. Immediately, a bitter wind came in. It was so cold that he shivered.

Death is close at hand, as long as he steps out of this window, he can get the most eternal freedom after a short fall, and return to heaven, earth and void.

"Sasuke." Just as Sasuke was about to take this step, Kakashi came in from the door and stopped him.
