Panting while running, she noticed the ice mirrors are gone and a vibrant orange figure standing. Misa smiles happily that Naruto is okay. "Naruto-san!" He heard her voice called out his name. She leaps to wrap her arms around his neck. "Thank goodness you're alright." She sighs in relief. He didn't say anything or hugged her back. The Akiyama girl studies his face. It was sad and broken.

"What's wrong?" She asked him, worriedly. His azure eyes have tears forming. "I-I'm sorry, Misa-chan. I couldn't save him." The tears start streaming down his whisker cheeks. Misa had no clue at first what he meant until it hit her. She dares to take a look over his shoulder. Gasping in distraught "N-No." she covers her mouth with her hands.

Sasuke is dead.

They walked together and approach their unconscious friend. Misa bends down her knees, she raises a hand to touch his cold cheek. Her fingers move on top of his neck pulse. There was nothing. She carefully puts his soft raven head onto her lap and removes the senbons off his body.

"He doesn't deserve this. He wanted to avenge in his attire life to become a strong shinobi. Never once was nice to people but he hide it...of having a kind heart." She remembers the moments of them together that made Sasuke open up a little more. "He also promised to protect me." She sobs, taking out the last senbon. Naruto watches it all, taking in everything Misa is saying. She knows a lot about Sasuke personally as well.

Her rosy pink eyes cannot handle the tears. She sobs even louder "I accepted it but not like this." She broke down, crying her heart out. Naruto's face crumbles too when he hears feet running on the way. It was Tazuna and Sakura. The pink-haired kunoichi made the same reaction as everyone else when seeing Sasuke. She slowly walks over to the crying Misa and bends down to her sitting level. Gingerly held the Uchiha's cold hand as tears run down.

'So young to die yet he sacrificed himself to save his friends.' Tazuna never thought a kid would leave his soul for his comrades. Under his specks, he cries for them because they're pure children. May there be mercy.

Kakashi from afar can hear everything. The precious students that are dear to him shouldn't experience seeing the death of their friend. He looks down at his hands caked with blood, Haku's blood, it was like deja vu. A familiar feeling from years ago. While fighting against Zabuza, the boy saved his mentor by guarding him and getting Chidori to the heart. Haku did the same thing as Sasuke except Zabuza was a bastard that didn't care for his student. Calling him a tool.

He doesn't give up and continues to fight with the Copycat shinobi. His gigantic sword almost chopped off Kakashi's arm but he was fast enough to stab the rogue's right arm with double kunai knives. Zabuza groans in agony and his tape scarf gets caught. He looks at the back of him "Sayonara, demon." Kakashi utters, digging in two more knives into his other arm.

Over at Misa's, she wipes the tears off her bloodshot eyes. She turns her head to Sakura who stopped crying as well. "Sakura-san, can you watch over him?" Misa asked the girl. She nods with no hesitation. Misa lifts Sasuke's head off her lap and lay it gently on the ground. She then proceeds to walk over to Kakashi's damaged state. He saw her coming over and he lets out his arms. Misa enters his embrace as her sensei pets her ebony locks. "I'm so sorry, Misa-chan." The man apologizes. Holding her tighter, wanting to erase the pain. It didn't last long when someone decides to finally come face to face.

Gato.

"Gato, why'd come here? And why are there henchmen?" Zabuza asked his boss. The greedy small man with the cane chuckles "Our strategy has changed up a little," he taps his cane, "I'm sorry Zabuza but you will die here." He announced. As a heartless human-being, Gato betrays the sword user and mocks him. Calling Zabuza a useless Hidden Mist shinobi. The mob laughs out loud wanting to make him furious.
