Of all the people Sasuke did not want to see right now, Naruto was pretty close to the top of the list. The blond had an obnoxious way of being cheerful even though his own situation sucked, and seeing the other boy like that made him feel even worse. Before this he might not have been so reluctant to see Naruto, now he just wanted to get away. With Yura at his side however he knew he wasn't going to get out of this, and so the Uchiha boy simply stood at her side, trying to avoid the other boy's gaze as he shifted uncomfortably on the spot. Of course he'd be completely oblivious to his discomfort, and now he was trying to get him to talk?

Sasuke was about to respond until Naruto dropped a bombshell of a question. The second it left his mouth he could feel the tension in the air, and nervously he glanced up in Yura's direction. She was angry, no doubt about that, leave it to Naruto to pull something like that. Sighing to himself, the Uchiha boy reached up and put a hand on Yura's to try and keep her from snapping, giving the blond a somewhat annoyed glance in turn. "She's Yura, and she's taking care of me. That's all you need to know," he responded curtly, grabbing Yura's hand then and leading her away. That probably confused Naruto more than it helped him, but Sasuke didn't much care. He had to take his new caretaker away before he killed the idiot for asking a question like that, so this was doing him a favor. 

Surprisingly the blond dolt didn't follow, and Sasuke was able to get Yura a safe distance before letting her go. Releasing her hand as soon as he was sure it was safe he placed both hands in his pockets, casting his gaze downwards once more. He'd wanted to actually chat with his classmate, but that was difficult when he was pissing off the only person Sasuke had left. That aside and it was pretty tense when around Naruto, with all the villagers treating him like he was diseased or something. He still had no idea why they did that, he'd never seen anyone be shunned so much as Naruto was. Sure he was a trouble maker, but then so were a lot of kids their age, so what did he do to earn that?

"Yura...? Why does everyone hate Naruto?" Sasuke asked, voicing his confusion. Looking back up at his caretaker he frowned, furrowing his brow as he tried to make sense of it in his mind. "He's never done anything that bad, has he? And it's not like he's old enough to hurt anyone, he's my age. I don't get why everyone looks at him that way..." In a way it wasn't fair, how both he and Naruto were treated. Neither of them had much of anything, yet Sasuke was never shunned or treated like a stray animal. He even lucked out and found someone in Yura to take care of him, yet Naruto was wholly alone. Even though he didn't know the word for it, the hypocrisy absolutely disgusted him. Tightening his hands into fists, the raven-haired boy wrinkled his face in discontent and gave a shake of his head. "I hate that everyone does that... They're all wrong..."
