Sadness and Sorrow

Precious Ones

Do any of you play Kingdom Hearts? You know that part at the beginning of KH 2 where that awesome song plays?

I downloaded the song.

I've been looking for it for forever! But that's not the point. The point is, I've been sick and couldn't really relax. Then I put the song on repeat. It really helped! I was able to get a lot of rest. It's so damn relaxing! Who wouldn't want to fall asleep to 'My sanctuary (x2) Where fears and lies melt away'?

Anyway, on with the story.

Outside of himself, all was calm. The Uchihas were asleep in the chairs surrounding the bed. The heart monitor beat steadily. But on the inside, Naruto was having a fierce battle with himself.

~Naruto's POV~

It was so dark. I couldn't remember anything else except a voice. It kept telling me to hold on.

But what do I have to hold onto?

You doubt the ones who love you? I stare through the nothingness, looking for the new voice.

"Who loves me?" I ask.

You don't remember. Let me remind you of the ones who care for you.

A bunch of pictures flash before me at an impossible speed. After a while, they start to slow down, landing on a little grey-haired kid. He seems so... familiar.

This is Kabuto, your little brother. He's the one you've been fighting for, for as long as you have. Do you remember him?

I grasp for the memory. It's just out of reach.

Push for it, little one. You have to remember to save him.

The pictures flash by again. This time they stop on a dark haired teen. The memories push at me, but something's stopping me from grabbing them.

This is Sasuke. He's your best friend. You two share the most memories. Don't let them slip away.

The voice prepares to change the pictures again. I stop him. I can almost reach... the memories... I touch the picture. The smirk on the male's face turns into a smile as it moves.
