We Meet Again
Chapter 3 - Memory of Her
"Sasuke wake up!" a feminine voice called.
Sasuke quietly got up from his bed, rubbing the grogginess from his eyes. He looked around and noticed he was in a room. At closer inspection, he realized it was his room. But it did not look like it had been abandoned for five years like it was supposed to. "What am I doing here?" he thought. The last thing he remembered was talking to Sakura and now he's in his old room. Suddenly his bedroom door slid open to reveal a woman with long black hair and eyes that seemed to match, it was Uchiha, Mikoto.
"Sasuke get up it's time for breakfast, everyone is waiting on you." the woman said.
"Mom?" Sasuke asked in disbelief. Worry quickly settled on the woman's beautiful face.
"Of course it's me honey, are you feeling well?" Mikoto asked feeling his forehead for any sign of a fever.
"But-but you're dead." Sasuke stated.
"Did you have a bad dream Sasuke? Because I can assure you that I am very much alive." Mikoto said.
"Dad? Everybody?" Sasuke asked.
"Everybody is fine Sasuke, now come down to breakfast." Mikoto said.
"I'll be down in a minute." Sasuke said. Satisfied, the woman left the room. Sasuke just sat there. "What the hell is going on?" he thought.
Sasuke made his way down to breakfast, only to be met with the face of not only his father but his brother too. Mikoto quickly set a place for Sasuke as he sat down to eat with his family.
"Good morning, Sasuke." his father, Fugaku said.
"Good morning little brother." Itachi said.
"Good morning father, Itachi." Sasuke said as he eyed Itachi warily.
"Sasuke you must hurry, Kakashi said to meet him at the gates at noon for your mission." Mikoto said.
"I have a mission?" Sasuke asked.
"Of course you have a mission, you've only had this mission planned out for the last couple of weeks." Fugaku said.
"Are you sure you're feeling alright?" Mikoto asked.
"Of course, it must have just slipped my mind with that nightmare that I had." Sasuke said shaking his head to clear it.
Sasuke quickly finished his breakfast and excused himself from the table. He didn't know what was going on but he would go along with it for now, because he had to admit, it felt nice having a family again. As he packed for his mission he wondered if Naruto and Sakura were still on his team. It would be nice to bug the Dobe again and Sakura well she was just Sakura. I wonder if she is as strong as she was when I last saw her. He didn't know if it had been a dream or if this was a dream it was all very confusing. He finished packing grabbed his stuff and set off towards the gates.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Yo! Teme over here!" a loud voice called out.
"Naruto, stop being so loud." Sasuke said as he arrived at the gates.
"Teme you know that being quiet is something that I can never achieve." Naruto said in serious tone. Sasuke chose not to respond to that and just asked.
"Where's Kakashi?"
"He should be here any minute, Hinata-chan too." Naruto replied.
"Hinata? You mean the Hyuuga? Where is Sakura?" Sasuke asked.
"Who's Sakura?" Naruto asked. Sasuke just stared at him in disbelief.
"You know Sakura, pink hair, green eyes, always beating you up?" Sasuke said.
"Teme are you ok? We've never met a Sakura before." Naruto said. Sasuke couldn't believe it, Sakura didn't exist. But she had saved his life not that long ago in real life, or was it a dream he didn't know he was so confused.
"Good morning everybody." a low voice said.
"Ah! Hinata-chan! Where have you been? I was starting to worry about you." Naruto said as her embraced the girl. She in return turned completely red.
"Sorry Naruto-kun but my father wanted to talk to me before I left." she said in a low-sweet voice.
….Sasuke just didn't understand, but he resolved to just not think about it. Sakura would turn up eventually and Naruto would remember and everything would be okay. But she didn't turn up.
Days went by.
Days turned into weeks.
Weeks turned into months.
Before he knew it, Sasuke had been there for almost a whole year. He could barely remember Sakura anymore.

"Good morning Sasuke, Happy Birthday!" Mikoto said as she swung open Sasuke's bed room door.
"Good morning mom and thanks." he said as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes.
"Now Sasuke hurry up and get dressed, we have something very important to tell you." Mikoto said, her expression serious.
"Okay." Sasuke said. He quickly got dressed and made his way downstairs, his whole family was waiting for him in the living room.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"Sasuke, please sit down." Mikoto said gesturing towards a chair.
"Sasuke please listen this is very important." Fugaku said.
"You know that we love you, and it has been wonderful spending all this lost time with you." Mikoto began.
"What are you talking about?" Sasuke asked confused.
"Please listen to mother." Itachi said.
"Like I was saying Sasuke, it has been wonderful spending all this time together like a real family but there is something that you need to do." Mikoto said.
"What is it?" Sasuke asked.
"You need to let us go." Mikoto whispered out a tear falling from her eye.
"What?" Sasuke said.
"Sasuke, it is time to let us go. You have held on to this for too long, what you do no understand is that we cannot rest in peace until you let us go. Move on with your life Sasuke, you deserve to be happy."
"But-." Sasuke began.
"No Sasuke no buts. Now follow me." Mikoto said standing up. She led him to a door that he had never seen before. "Has that always been there?" he thought.
"On the other side of this door, someone is waiting for you." Mikoto said. "She had been waiting for you for a long time. You must go to her."
"Remember that all we ever wanted was for you to be happy." Fugaku said.
"He is right little brother, and you deserve it more than anybody." Itachi said.
"Now go, she has waited long enough." Mikoto said.
Sasuke just looked at all them for a minute taking in the happy family image for the last time. He turned towards the door, took a deep breath and slowly opened the door. A white light engulfed him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sasuke slowly opened his eyes, seeing nothing but blurs for a second. But as they began to clear he saw a familiar head of pink hair sitting beside him. Her head was laying beside his hand. "She's asleep." he thought. He slowly moved his hand towards her hair and stroked it softly.
"Sa-ku-ra." he said his voice a bit rough from not being used in so long. She stirred.
"Sakura." he said again in a low voice. Her head shot up and she looked around wildly her eyes finally landing on him.
"Sakura." he said once again. She gasped.
"S-Sasuke?" she asked. "Sasuke, you're awake." She cupped his face in her hands and tears began to fall down her face.
"Sakura, what happened?" Sasuke asked. She hesitated, not knowing if she should tell him or not.
"You have been in a coma for almost a year now." Sakura whispered.
"Really?" Sasuke asked in disbelief.
"Yes, but that doesn't matter now because you are awake." Sakura said putting a smile on her face. Sasuke smiled back as he tried to sit up, something didn't feel right. He tried to move his leg to push himself up, nothing happened. He tried again but with the other leg, nothing happened.
"Sakura what's going on? I can't feel me legs!" Sasuke screamed as panic took over. Sakura froze.
"What?" she asked.
"I can't feel my legs! What the hell is going on?!" Sasuke said as he began to throw anything near him. Sakura quickly called for a nurse.
"I need an anesthetic!" she yelled as the nurse came.
"NO! I NEED SOMEONE TO TELL ME WHY MY LEGS WON'T WORK!" Sasuke shouted. The nurse rushed his with the anesthetic. Sakura found a way around Sasuke's flailing arms and she applied the anesthesia. The last thing Sasuke saw was Sakura's worried face before everything went black.
