A window,
Lets you see,
Into a different world
Uzumaki
Naruto pushed his face up against the window of the train. He could see Sasuke
standing on the platform. People around him were waving or crying but Sasuke
just stood there, in the midst of them. It was like a different world to the
one that Naruto found himself in, so very, very far away, and yet so close.
What you,
May see,
Can differ
Sasuke’s head
may have been facing the window of the train opposite him but his mind was lost
back in memories of the past. He couldn’t see the train, or the people, waving
and shouting final goodbyes. Sasuke was lost in old times, with Naruto, Sakura
and that porn loving jerk Kakashi. How long ago they seemed.
Separating,
Sight from,
Reality through the glass
It didn’t
feel entirely real to Naruto, that he should be leaving his home for the first
time. Naruto didn’t like to travel; he hated the feeling of leaving behind his
friends and the place that he knew like the back of his neck. It really was as
if he was travelling to a new and unknown reality, far from what he knew.
Taking,
You away,
From what you see
A whistle
blew, and Sasuke watched the train slide away from the now emptying platform
and into the unknown. It was almost as if he was moving away from the train,
leaving the chewing gum covered concrete behind, but it was Naruto who was
making the first step into the outside world and not he.
It is,
Here but,
It is gone
Naruto felt a
slight jolt as the train started to slide out of the station. His emotions were
all swirling inside of him like different flavours. Some had a bittersweet,
almost sour taste and he forced them away but one came to his mind like pesto
and coriander. It told him that he was finally going to see the world, see something
new and exciting, but it melted away to be replaced by something sickly sweet
and bile flavoured.
Looking,
Near though,
So far is not?
I could
always call him I suppose. Sasuke watched the train disappear and take his best
friend with it. He felt like he could still reach out and pull it back, make
Naruto get off and never leave again. Sasuke would be all alone without him and
not even a phone or a webcam could make up for that.
Will I,
Ever,
Reach beyond the window
A commotion
started up from somewhere further down the train. Naruto left his seat and
travelled down his carriage slightly till he saw two policemen talking to a
dark man who had the look of a caged animal. His hand slid inside his bag
despite the policemen insisting that he not touch anything. He suddenly whipped
his hand out holding a small box with a switch on it. A Bomb?! Naruto
didn’t wait to see what happened next, he ran at the nearest table to him and
launched himself under it seconds before an ear shattering blast consumed his body
and threw his world into oblivion. He was tossed through his carriage until he
came to rest under fallen metal and debris from the train. Every part of Naruto
felt like it had been put through blender and he couldn’t see anyone else
around him. Naruto was finding it hard to believe what had just happened to
him, he had just been blown up!
He reached
out his free hand towards where the window had been. He could see his bag lying
in the rubble and a photo of him and Sasuke poking out of the top. Naruto felt
blood trickling down his face and his hand grew limp. Blackness.
“A train
crash thought to have been caused by a terrorist group has killed 407 people. A
man is thought to have planted a bomb on himself in an attempt to blow up said
train, causing it to crash less than 5 miles from the station. This is thought
to have been an attempt to blow up a major crossing point from the coast of-“
A remote
control smashed through the screen of the television. Sasuke put his head in
his hands and pressed his eyes to keep himself from crying.
“I don’t want to hear it anymore!” Sasuke almost screamed at the
television. “He can’t be dead! You’re just lying! Naruto…”
