1st Year in Konoha High School

Part X

Naruto

"Today I am here for my guardian, Jiraiya. He was like a grandfather to me and he told me I was like his grandson. We've known each other ever since I was born and he has always supported me. Dependently, by always taking care of me, and independently when I was left alone for 5 years. He has accepted me, and I know he has accepted every one of you. He is a fine man that took care of me. If I was in that incident with him. I know he would have sacrificed his life for me. He would do the same to any others. Remember this man. Remember my grandfather." I told my speech to everyone. Trying to not let out a tear. My friends were in the front row listening to ever word I had to say. They really are great friends.

I just wish Sasuke was here.

Sasuke

Just for the sake of Naruto, I am on my way to the funeral. I know he wouldn't do good on his speech with out me.

When I was right around the corner to the place. I saw a man hiding in the shadows looking at the funeral. He was laughing.

"What are you doing?" I asked him

"Oh... I just am seeing my dear friend. But I wasn't invited. " This stranger sneered.

"I don't think they would mind if you just watched the funeral..."

"Oh they would boy... they would... What is your name boy?" He pale man asked.

"Sasuke... Uchiha."

"Oh... heh heh... I heard about your family's incident." He grinned at me.

"And who are you, huh?" This guy's a pain. I just want to get away from him and leave him be.

"Oh, I am Orochimaru. I myself was the one that killed your family and other families too." He laughed like a freak.

"Wait? Did you kill Naruto's too?" If he did I am going to knock this sucker out. He can just kill who ever he wants.

"No, but that Uzumaki Clan needed to be killed, or they would've found everyone out. Somebody than killed my good old friend, Jiraiya, because he was about to catch me. So he burned that house down. We thought that little boy was in their too so they could be gone once and for all... but I guess we just had bad luck hah-"

I punched him in the face before he could give me his freaky laugh. He than got really pissed and raged that he stabbed me in the chest with a knife.

I started coughing up blood, giving him a despising look.

"Well I gotta go boy, hope to see you soon." He walked away a while I was on the ground pleading for help, but no one came.

Sakura

"Hey Ino, we should go and get the preparations ready after the funeral." I whispered to my friend.

"Should we get Hinata?" She asked.

"No, let her take care of Naruto. He probably doesn't look like it, but I bet he is the most miserable out of everybody here." I confirmed with her as we were on our way to get the thank you bags at Naruto's place.

When were turned to the next street, we saw a guy on the ground and blood everywhere. I couldn't see who it was far away. We got closer because of suspicion. Ino blocked her face because she is afraid of stuff like th-

"Is that Sasuke!?" My train of thoughts have gone and I ran up to my love.

"Ino call 9-1-1 right away!" I yelled at her. She than opened her eyes and was terrified that one of our friends is brutally injured. We were both paralyzed at the thought.
