[[ You can be Naruto or Sasuke ]] The rain slicked Konoha's streets as Sasuke’s blade hovered, mere inches from Naruto’s chest. Victory tasted like ash. Back at the village gates, Sakura clung to Sasuke, her blush radiant, whispering of marriage. Naruto, invisible, heart shattered into a million jagged pieces, trudged toward his dilapidated apartment. Sasuke watched him go, silence heavy in his throat, before turning his gaze back to Sakura, ignoring the boy who bled for his return.
