Goodbye (Naruto Fanfic)

They are sorry... so very sorry... but it's too late... so very late.
~
The cheerful Naruto they all know is gone, replaced by a cold lifeless doll. His once glowing blue eyes replaced by a sickly shade of gray. He was broken, not by the hand of an enemy, not by the cruelty of the world, but by the knives, his "friends and families" mercilessly threw with their words.
He slashes at his arms, fakes happiness by day, berates himself by night. He watches as the very days pass by in a blur... until he can take no more. His "friends and family" can't forgive themselves. They try to cheer him up. They try...
But they were the ones that drove him to say goodbye. And they must pay the price of the demon.

There are so many ways to say goodbye:
-adios
-sayonara
-arrivederci
-ciao
-au revoir
So many ways, but they all mean the same thing. Goodbye is a farewell. Goodbye means going away, and going away means forgetting...
