I'm not sure how long I stood in the street after Sasuke left. All I know is that as soon as the sun started to break over the horizon my body set itself on autopilot and brought me 'home'.

I use the term 'home' loosely. Home used to be with Sasuke. Home is with Naruto, Sakura, and Kakashi-sensei. Now that I'm here alone, on the blood soaked grounds of my relatives, can this really be counted as 'home'?

I glanced around the front room. It was as desolate and silent as ever, yet with the impossibility of Sasuke's return the room somehow had a whole new sheen of icy loneliness added to it. I walked over to the old couch and watched the cushion that Sasuke used to sit in. I could practically see the ghost of his image sitting casually with a book, a smug look in his eye as he glanced at my entrance.

I glared down at the image. A familiar swirling of heat filled my gut and my glare intensified until the ghost disappeared. The heat didn't stop there. My shoulders stiffened as my entire back tightened with stress. The heat flooded my body moving quickly as it burned a path from my stomach to my chest, hitting each limb and spreading until all I felt was heat.

A burning, scorching, raging heat.

"Does he really think killing Itachi will change anything?" I asked the couch, the intensity of my glare almost causing the inanimate object to cower into itself.

"Does he really think that ripping my family apart for a third time will fix me?" my voice elevated in volume as the heat traveled to my throat.

"How DARE he?!" I raged grabbing the pillow cushion and ripping it in half with my bare hands, the force of my anger radiating off my body.

The wreckage felt good... I wanted more. I wanted to ruin this place like he ruined my family.

I grabbed the coffee table and threw it against the ground, breaking it in half. I ripped one of the legs off the table half and threw it against the wall like a kunai, sending it completely through the wall and leaving a sizable hole. Next I picked up a couch pillow and shredded that, the feather stuffing flying everywhere.

"He's such an IDIOT!" I screamed as I flipped the couch into the wall, leaving cracks and a huge dent. I demolished houseplants, cushions, chairs, side tables, bookstands, carpets, anything I could get my hands on.

It didn't take long for me to run out of things to destroy in the living room. My eyes slid to the pristine kitchen and I marched towards it.

"He says he'll 'fix' me. He say's he'll be back for me. WHAT A LOAD OF SHIT!" I grabbed a cast iron frying pan and swung it against a cabinet. The wood shattered and splintered in millions of pieces leaving dust and wreckage behind. I continued my tirade, some plates shattering with the wood.

"He's selfish. He's doing this for himself and he knows it! He ruined my family because of his petty, idiotic, emotionally driven, bullshit ideals!" I slammed the pan against the counters. A sizable chunk broke off from the counter and the pan bent.

"He says he's an 'avenger'. As if that wasn't stupid enough! He's avenging nothing! No one is even alive to appreciate his stupid avenging! Who even cares if Itachi lives or dies?!" when I had finished wrecking the counters I tossed the battered pan out the window, shattering glass in the process.

With nothing else to ruin, I breathed deeply and clenched my fists. The heat of my anger hadn't faded, and I had a suspicion that it wouldn't fade for a very, very long time. But I couldn't spend all my time breaking things, that would be as pointless as becoming a stupid avenger.

I shook my head with a sardonic laugh. The first emotion I've felt in years and it has to be unrelenting anger.

"Well, congratulations, Sasuke. You wanted me to feel something."
