Sharingan Awakening

A/N: I've actually completed this story and will put it out piece by piece. Really hope you all enjoy it. As for background this is based on Sasuke and Naruto's lives when older and is not strictly canon. Some characters are still alive whilst others are still dead.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters from Naruto and claim nothing other than the plot, this is written for my own amusement and hopefully will give others some enjoyment also.

oOoOo

Geez why was he here again? Naruto was grouchy as he slunk up the stairs towards the Hokage's chambers. He'd been just about to eat a mega meal too. If he hadn't just been out on an extended mission for three months he would have been excited to meet up with the big guys.

"Hey old lady I'm here!" Naruto called, pushing open the door. His eyes grew wide, "Sasuke?" He scowled. "Sasuke you bastard where the hell did you go? You just abandoned me at the warehouse." He fisted his hand as he struggled to hold in his temper, "I looked for you for weeks."

Tsunade chuckled, "Now now Naruto, that was Sasuke's mission, we needed him elsewhere and we needed you to stay at the warehouse."

"But... Ya could have told me that! Doesn't explain why he's been gone for a whole bloody year does it? We're meant to be team mates." Annoyed he folded his arms as he stared at the relaxed jounin. Actually…it was a little weird, Sasuke was sitting in the corner of the room far away from everyone. His hands hung between his legs and his shoulders were slumped, it was unlike the Uchiha.

"Sasuke was on a mission, he's back now," Tsunade stated firmly, "In fact we have a mission for you."

The twenty-five year old looked to the other skeptical, "For both of us?"

"No. just you Naruto."

"Hmph, so why is he here?"

"Because Sasuke is the one buying our help."

Naruto gaped, "Wha? What sort of help?"

Sasuke groaned, "Hokage why are you asking Naruto? If I knew it was him I might have gone elsewhere."

Tsunade smirked, "Because Sasuke, you don't want others to know of your family secret and Naruto is one of the few who can potentially keep up with you."

Naruto put his hands on his hips frustrated, "Whaddya mean huh? Why are you paying for help anyway, shouldn't we help Sasuke without payment?"

"Because it's a big job Naruto, we can't offer our services for free. This will be a very hard mission, S rank."

"S?"

"Correct," Tsunade sent a smile to the other in the room, Kakashi. "Do you think Naruto will complete it?"

Kakashi shook his head, "No."

"Excuse me! I'm the best ninja in this village, I can do some lousy mission for Sasuke. Believe it."

"This isn't your average mission Naruto, you'll have to focus, look at Sasuke do you notice anything wrong?" Kakashi offered.

The blond man snorted, glancing back at his childhood rival. He was tense sure, but so what? His blue eyes slid over the man, Sasuke's head was half-bowed and he could tell he was watching him through dark bangs, the glint of his crimson irises of the Sharingan a giveaway, sweat beaded on his collarbone and his hands…

"Wha? Why ya hands chained together Sasuke?"

"For the love of god, Hokage please pick someone else," Sasuke growled.

"No can do Sasuke, Naruto is my one and final choice. If he isn't to your liking, you are free to buy assistance from another village," Tsunade said smartly. Naruto noticed she seemed to take great delight in saying the words.

"What's wrong with me Sasuke? Don't think I can do it," Naruto asked, offended at the insinuation.

Crimson eyes rolled and Sasuke straightened to lean back in the chair he sat in, "You're a moron Naruto."

Naruto's eyes slanted, truly wanting to smack the other over the head, prissy bastard.

"Do you accept our ninja Sasuke? As I have to tell Naruto now, his job and your privacy is then void," Tsunade warned.

"Whatever…don't have much of a choice anyway. I need someone, even if it is Naruto," Sasuke muttered, not looking at any of them.

"Very good."

"So Naruto are you ready?"

"Guess," The blond huffed.

"Wonderful. Sasuke Uchiha comes from a very old ninja line."

"I know already, don't need ta lecture me."

"Naruto! Silence this is important. As I was saying, Sasuke is from the Uchiha clan. The Uchiha clan was wiped out."

He knew this already, Naruto thought tapping his foot, his eyes flitted occasionally to the man in the corner of the room.

"The Uchiha clan have the Sharingan, a great power. But this power also has one flaw, one that affects the one inheriting it in their youth."

"Eh? There is?" Naruto a bit curious now.

"Sasuke…needs you to keep him away from people for two weeks."

"…" Naruto was horrified, "Two weeks grandma? You want me to leave the village?"

"What you do is your decision and Sasuke's, he is the one paying for this mission remember."

"But why two weeks, what do you mean by keeping away?" It made no sense.

Kakashi chuckled, "Uchiha, when young men and women go through a phase similar to an animal courtship phase. In the past, the Uchiha clan would do this job with a hiree from the village, to try and keep their family from a foolish marriage."

Tsunade nodded, "Yes, Kakashi in fact was once a bodyguard for a Uchiha long ago."

"Really? That's so weird Sensei."

"Weird or not I failed," Kakashi said calmly.

Naruto was shocked, "F...Failed?"

"Yes. The Uchiha are known for their intelligence, I was outsmarted and before I knew it they had wooed some girl up the road and by then it was too late. They had to marry."

"Wooed…you mean they had er…" Naruto fumbled as his cheeks grew darker and darker, "Um…"

Tsunade smirked, "Sex, yes. The Uchiha for two weeks will want to bed someone, it could be anyone and once that happens they then generally marry the person if the other agrees. Uchiha feel strongly on having only one partner."

Naruto snickered, "Sasuke's gonna want girlfriends?"

"Shutup Naruto," Sasuke stood, his crimson eyes slits, "I don't want to get married, you have to stop me. Get it?"

Naruto shrugged humored, "Alright, ya can't get angry with me if I hurt cha. You must have sucked Kakashi sensei, how hard is it to stop someone from having sex in two weeks?"

Kakashi smiled, "It's not as easy as you think. Sasuke will fall in love."

"Love?" Naruto now a little worried.

"Yes and he will be desperate to have it reciprocated, to have a physical relationship."

"So…love ain't bad is it, so am I meant to stop that?" Naruto confused, "That means I can't leave town like you said Hokage."

"I said it is up to you and Sasuke. Some Uchiha have left the village, others fear missing their future partner so wanted only to be kept respectable, whilst others wanted to stay in the village but be kept away from everyone else. It's very personal, there is the danger if you leave our village, that Sasuke will fall for a stranger who belongs to another village altogether and that could be more of a problem."

Naruto blinked, this was more confusing than he'd predicted, "Sooo will Sasuke want all the girls or…"

"Every Uchiha is different. The sharingan which is active right now, tell his body he needs to be with someone NOW. His personality dictates how he finds this person."

Naruto glanced back to Sasuke with his chained hands, "Is that why you chained yourself?"

"Tch, I prefer not ruining my reputation because I touched someone I shouldn't," Sasuke muttered.

"Do you accept the mission Naruto? You will receive one million for payment," Tsunade asked.

"One million! That's crazy," It was a fortune.

"Only three percent of Uchiha courtships have been successfully kept from a marriage. If you fail you won't get the money."

"You better not fail Naruto," Sasuke said.

"Hey…I won't. You just gotta keep it in ya pants. You're being pretty good now anyway."

Tsunade smiled, "It doesn't start till tomorrow morning, His eyes light up for a week prior, to warn of the change. Sasuke you understand travelled here to get help."

"Oh," Naruto grinned, "Well let's hop to it then, we can talk about it at my place."

Sasuke fluidly got to his feet, "Understood lets go."

The pair walked out the room.

Tsunade smiled at Kakashi, "Naruto is going to fail."

"Of course. I don't understand why you lied, one hundred percent of Uchiha's marry in their twenties from this fortnight."

"Well you have to give them some hope. Sasuke doesn't seem ready to be married and the Uchiha have always paid for assistance historically."

"I always wondered why," Kakashi sighed. "If they marry anyway why waste the money?"

"Romantic maybe?" Tsunade offered, "I never did understand the Uchiha."

oOoOo

Naruto laughed once outside, his blue eyes danced every time he'd glance to the subdued rival. "Too bad. Is this a once in a lifetime deal Sasuke or do you go into some heat every year?"

"Quiet Naruto, it's a once ever. I didn't even know about it until Itachi passed it on in his memories. All Uchiha have it, well…if they have the Sharingan inheritance."

"Hm…wonder why?"

"Don't know, apparently my parents met that way, as did my aunts and uncles."

"So you will meet someone?"

"No. I don't have time to coddle anyone, I have too much to do."

Naruto grinned, "Bet that's why it happens."

"Why?" Sasuke repeated in confusion.

"Sure, all you Uchiha's are so obsessed with missions you'd probably grow old and never have a family without this." Naruto was humored at the dirty look he received.

"And you can talk Naruto."

He flushed, "Oi I would if I met the right person, you just don't care, so there's a difference."

"Yeah whatever."

The pair walked in silence, Naruto tucked hands behind his head, smiling at fellow villagers as they headed to his small apartment. "So what do you want me to do exactly? Stop you talking to girls? …This is the most warped mission I've ever had."

"Just don't let me do something I'll regret. I don't want to end up in bed with any female in this village. If I'm going to fall in love too bad, I can wait till after this fortnight."

Naruto nodded, sliding his key into the old lock, there a click letting them both inside. The raven-haired jounin walked past him and dropped down on the couch. Naruto followed and crouched down before him, tapping on the metal chain linked between Sasuke's pale hands. "Ya really going to keep these on? Girls will think you're weird if you're waltzing around shackled".

Sasuke shrugged, a smirk tilted his lips, "Do you really want me to have free hands? Anyway I don't desire to be married just because you fail at keeping control. You HAVE to be in control Naruto. No sleeping on the job, no letting me out of your sight or the village for that matter. "

"Get it, no need to lecture me."

"It's my entire life, I will lecture you," Sasuke muttered.

Naruto laughed, "I can't wait to see who you go all mushy for."

"Shut up."

"No really, this is a special couple of weeks," Naruto had to smother his laughter with his hands, eyebrows wiggled, "You'll be chasing a girl down with flowers, writing love letters, trying to get a kiss behind a tree."

The muscle in Sasuke's jaw twitched, "I can still hurt you scaredy cat."

"Hey!"

"Just let's go to bed, I want to get this all over and done with."

"Alright," The blond man stood, gesturing his friend to his bed, "You sleep here against the wall, then I'll notice when you wake up tomorrow."

"Bah we're not kids anymore."

"What sharing a bed too 'stressful' for you?"

Bright red eyes rolled and the man ignored him and climbed onto the bed, rolling so he faced the wall, "Night."

Naruto grinned, "Night Sasuke." He sat down beside his old friend and pulled off his shirt, his hair mussed as he looked back to the quiet jounin. "I hope you find someone special."

"Hm," That was it, Naruto dropped into bed, his wide eyes focused on the ceiling as his thoughts roamed. If this was for real he had to think it through, Sasuke would try every trick to get away. Unsure he reached out to touch the other's arm.

"What are you doing now?" Sasuke's tone tense.

"Just…give me your hand. I don't want you to escape," Naruto complained.

The warrior rolled over, Naruto able to reach down and fold their hands together, his cheeks grew pink, "Now you can't get away."

"We never speak of this. Do you understand?"

"Yep, no worries here, gross man."
