"Heh, guess my almighty 'talk-no-jutsu' did work, huh...Madara" I could feel the metallic liquid breach into my lungs as I coughed the crimson residue up.

"Tch, don't talk to me as if we are friends...damn brat" through and through, you Uchiha's won't risk your pride to stand down, not even when death is only a breath away.

A sigh escapes my lips as I look over the bloodied battle ground. "Can't believe you let the aloe Vera fucker...control you for this long" I could hear the threatening growl, but couldn't help the laughter from falling out. "You sound just...just like sasuke"I felt a soft punch to the side, knocking my weakened body over.

"Shut your mouth. You should be crying over your lost comrades right now" I took one last glance at the battlefield in front of me. The deceased bodies that formerly laid there were now resting in graves.

"I'm afraid there aren't any tears left to cry" silence befell us as I softly raise back up to lean against the Uchiha's back. "I...thank you. For helping me bury their bodies...at least they can Rest In Peace now" my thanks was barely a whisper, but in the dead silence of this war ground, it was clearly heard.

After a momentary silence Madara spoke. "Pftt, more like pieces" I softly scoffed, but the sound was overwritten by the cackling of this bozo bleeding out next to me.

As the laughter died out we watched the sky light up as the once setting sun rose again. A regretful smile rested on my face as I witnessed the hue of the sky lighten.

"Soooo, do you plan on dying next to me or waddling your way back to you burnt down village?"

"Hmm? Is that an invitation from the great Madara Uchiha?"

"HUHH?! DONT YO-Ugh!"

I looked over to see a red stained hand covering his mouth. I turn away and gave a small chuckle to the man, only earning a glare in return.

"You shouldn't yell so loudly, old man" I could sense the leaking killing intent, but unfortunately didn't care enough to take my words back. Madara was beginning to give in. He was was so weakened that he had to lean on me just to sit up.

"Aw, are you finally giving into the light Mr.Uchiha?" A ragged breath was the only thing showing his recognition to my question.

I could feel a warm liquid rise and leak through my mouth. It wasn't easy just sitting there and smiling, and yet it was the only thing I could do.

A small groan caught my attention. My eyes drift over to the pale man using me as a tree to lean on. "If anything...I'm sure...that those lost...souls...are drag...ging...me...to hell" his softened as he continued to speak his final words, breaths interrupting him throughout the way.

Once his pulse finally come to a stop, I do one last job.

I had already dug a hole for him while we were placing the others into their own individual graves. So I just need to get there. That's all. Just get there.

My breathing became ragged as a stinging sound brought out a headache. And yet I didn't stop. Not until this man that was looked upon as a villain is resting in a grave like everyone else.

~time skip~

Wow...Can't believe I lasted this long. I stare over the millions of covered up graves. It was hard to bury them, no matter who they were or whether I knew them or not. My stomach churned as I saw them, a life that I should have saved.

But although they were all challenging, the ones of which I knew and shared memories with, those were the most difficult to endure.

Maybe, just maybe, in my next life I can make it up to you guys. I can save you guys...I won't let anyone die a death like this ever again...so please...please...

"COME BACK!!!"

Without even realising it, tears were already staining the torn clothes I wore. My voice was cracking under the pressure of the screams I let out, blood accompanying the yells. So much emotions that I had left to get forgotten were finally showing themselves. So much pain that I was pushing down was finally exploding and coming out of hiding.

The raging emotions that I had let out lasted only seconds, yet the build up felt as though it took eternities.

There's nothing left to feel now. Nothing left to cry about. The only thing I can do now is wait. Wait for the grim reaper to come collect my damned soul. Hope they hurry up.
