One with spirits

Raikage

Naruto was ordered to stay in the village but didn't. I followed him out of the village. He was going to the Kage summit. Yamuto and Kakashi were with him. After we got a good ways away from the village I jumped in front of them shocking them.

"I thought you were told to stay in the village, " I said.

A look of determination filled Naruto's eyes.

"i have to stop them from killing sasuke, " Naruto said.

"let me tag along, " I said with a fake smile on my face.

He agreed and kept walking. When he turned my eyes narrowed. Kakashi looked at me as he slowed and walked beside me a good distance from the other two.

"what are you planning?" he asked.

"I'm sorry I can't trust Sasuke. Depending on what he does if we see him will decide how I act, " I said.

Kakashi sighed and looked ahead.

"you don't need that burden, " Kakashi said.

"And you do? You're his sensei why should you have to kill him if need be, " I snapped.

Kakashi looked at me and I sighed unable to meet his gaze. I knew what I would do. Even if Naruto wanted Sasuke to live and come back it wasn't possible at this point. Sasuke was close to the point of no return. And if he passes that point I will show no mercy.

"Hitomi, you don't need to take this burden," Rico said.

"If I don't take it, who will it fall onto?" I replied looking at Kakashi.

I was tagging along for one reason and one reason only. To see if Sasuke was a lost cause or not. I looked up at the sky. If Naruto or the others end up hating me if I kill him then so be it. I'd rather they hate me than have to kill him themselves.

"Rico I don't know if i can even kill Sasuke," I said.

Rico didn't reply and I knew he feared the same. If I failed in this mission of mine I could very easily end up dead.

We.soon arrived in the land of Iron and we saw the Raikage. I looked at Naruto who ran up to him. I sighed standing to the side. I wasn't here to save Sasuke. I very well may be doing the opposite.

Naruto begged and I looked away not being able to watch. What was he thinking? Sasuke wasn't worth it.

The Raikage completely disregarded what Naruto said and continued to the summit. Naruto stayed bowed and I sighed. Why does he do it?

"what if Choji or Shikamaru were in Sasuke's position. What would you do? Would you just give up and let them be killed?" Rico asked.

I stayed quiet. Those two were my best friends. Could I simply give up on them? My first clenched as I looked at Naruto again. No, I couldn't just give up.

That's how Naruto feels. But nonetheless, sasuke was not that kind of a person to me. I couldn't act like he was. I saw Naruto as a friend and I could see how much this was tearing him up.

" let's go Rico, " I said.

I walked away from the scene. This should be fun.
