Pairings: NaruSaku
Other Pairings to be Decided
(Locations Somewhere far from Konoha walls)
In a forest with a nice good looking river, two figures seemed to be holding on to each other, as the water was dragging them to a waterfall.
Between them was a sandwiched kid, who looked to be at the age of 6, had fair skin, yellow brown short messy hair. Wearing a white T-shirt, seeming green dark pants, and of course blue ninja slippers, along with a green scarf, he also probably had purple eyes with no pupils.
This mystery figure was unconscious, the other two figures sandwiched between him were concerned and worried for him.
The figure which was lower than the other one, was a Kuniochi with pink short neat hair. She wore a red vest, yellow brown skirt under It was bicycle shorts, and wearing black leather gloves and wore blue sandals. She had fair skin and green Jade eyes. She was holding the other figure very tightly, making sure the young kid Is safe between them.
The other figure was slightly higher than the Kuniochi, he had blonde spiky hair, tanned skin, blue cerulean eyes, and three whisker like marks on each side of his cheek. He wore a black and a little stripy Jumpsuit, and wore blue sandals. He was also holding the Kuniochi tightly.
The two saw the waterfall, they were getting closer and closer.
"NARUTO-KUN! YAGURA-KUN!" Shouted the Kuniochi, In a mix of fear and Worry In her voice
"SAKURA-CHAN! YAGURA! HOLD ON TIGHT! I WON'T LET YOU DIE BELIEVE IT!" Shouted the Male Figure, putting his hands on top of the girl, letting her sob on his chest, holding the kid tightly
The figures were now known as Naruto, Sakura and this new person called Yagura. Sakura sobbed on Naruto's chest, thinking this could be It for her, Yagura and Naruto. She held Yagura as tight as possible, not letting him slip from her grasp as she wanted to protect him like a mother. Naruto held the two with all the strength he had In him, like a father protecting his family from danger.
"NARUTO-KUN! YAGURA-KUN! I LOVE YOU BOTH!" Sakura Shouted, bracing herself and Yagura for Impact
"AND I LOVE THE TWO OF YOU ASWELL!" Naruto Shouted, a few tears escaping his eyes
They embraced before falling to the Waterfall. Holding each other tight.
PAUSE!
So….., You're guessing "How did Naruto and Sakura get Into this situation, and who Is this Yagura kid anyway?" Well the answer lies about two weeks ago In Konoha.
(Konoha, Two Weeks Ago)
Naruto was In a cell, why?
Because…., Let's start the story off of how he got there shall we?
After the rescue the Kazekage mission, Naruto and Sakura, with two new ninjas known as Sai and Yamato were doing the second Sasuke retrieval mission. After Two and a Half Years of looking for the last Uchiha, the village had finally located Orochimaru's Hide out. Sending In Sakura Haruno and Naruto Uzumaki to retrieve Sasuke Uchiha back.
During their travel, Naruto met up with Orochimaru, he lost control of the Kyuubi, letting him kill the snake bastard insight, he even tried to kill Kabuto, only to chomp his arm off and letting him live. It was Kinda a good thing that Naruto killed Orochimaru and critically wounded Kabuto.
After that they continued to Orochimaru's hide out, where they faced Sasuke.
It was a tough battle, but Naruto came up In time and used a Jutsu he's been working with Jiraya for a while, called the RasenShuriken. It's a very powerful Jutsu he's been working on for the past two and a half years, without It he and Sakura would be dead.
Sasuke's body was cut In all places, but nothing Sakura could heal, as people would think she'd be mad at Naruto she wasn't, she In fact took care of Naruto more than Sasuke, because she didn't want Sasuke to escape, knowing her healing skills would get both Naruto and Sasuke killed, she was more worried for Naruto than Sasuke.
After that, Sai and Yamato had to carry a unconscious Sasuke on their backs while Sakura had to help walk Naruto back to the village. Naruto couldn't put his finger on It but he could tell she was blushing when she was under Naruto's arm, which was slung over her shoulder, to help him walk. Sakura thanked Naruto, Naruto was happy, the promise of a life time he promised Sakura 'two And A Half Years Ago was finally fulfilled, bringing Sasuke back attempt number 2 was a success.
However, by the time they all got to the village, Several ROOT ANBU Surrounded them, taking Sasuke to a hospital, while taking what they called a "Demon" To the Prisons Cells, and yes that was Naruto they took. Sakura had every Intention to knocked the ANBU down If they didn't take Naruto to the Hospital, but Naruto told Sakura to let It slide and wait till Tsunadae figures out this mess.
So that's how he got here to this dirty old cell of his. Twenty four hours ago he was brining Sasuke back, but It seems like the ANBU didn't like the way he brought their "Uchiha Prodigy" back, even when he had risked his life for the second time to bring the traitor back.
While Naruto was Just thinking what's going on, and ANBU came by Naruto's cell.
"Wh…., What's wrong?" Naruto Asked
"Time for your Judgment Demon! It's time for you to face the charges!" The ANBU Informed, In a stern angry voice, before opening the cell doors, handcuffing Naruto
"What charges? What have I done to deserve this?" Naruto Asked, Confused of the Situation
"QUIET DEMON! YOU'LL STAY QIUET TILL YOUR JUDGEMENT IS OVER!" The ANBU Shouted In rage, Naruto Just stuck his tongue out at him before following the ANBU
(Location, Council Chambers)
There was an uproar of the civilian council, demanding what had happened to their "Last Noble Uchiha", Why was he cut up? Why did the "Demon" hurt their precious Uchiha?
Naruto came Into the room, hearing boos and shouts about his death from the civilian side, while the Shinobi side was silence, looking at the civilians In disgust.
"Naruto Uzumaki, you are here today to face your charges against a loyal Konoha Shinobi." Danzo spoke out, the room was silenced
"What….., What charges? What have I done? Who are you referring to that Shinobi?" Naruto Asked, Confusion In his voice
"YOU'LL NOT SPEAK INNOCENT DEMON! YOU'LL STAY QUIET LIKE A GOOD WEAPON YOU ARE!" Screamed a Rage civilian
"ENOUGH! LET NARUTO UZUMAKI SPEAK!" Tsunadae Roared, the Civilian Immediately shut up
"Naruto, I'm sorry about that." Tsunadae Apologised
"That's okay granny." Naruto Said, with a Soft Smile on his face
"Now! Can someone tell me what we're here to discuss!" Tsunadae Demanded
"As you wish Tsunadae." Danzo stood up, "We're here to discuss the second retrieval mission's report. As I read, the mission was successful, but Naruto Uzumaki had done what IS considered treason." Danzo Explained, "First, Naruto Uzumaki lost control of the Kyuubi for the third time. Second, Naruto Uzumaki killed Orochimaru, which my spies had told me that he was under the power of darkness. Third, Naruto Uzumaki attacked Sasuke Uchiha, Injuring him." Danzo sat down
"WHAT!" Exclaimed Naruto , "I know I lost control of the Kyuubi the third time but It won't happen again I promise! I didn't know that snake bastard was under the Influence of darkness! And Teme was the one who left the village, he was too strong for me and the others to handle so I had to Injure him!" Naruto Explained, trying to convince the council only for his words to fall on deaf ears
"Naruto Uzumaki does make a point Danzo. He's now getting use to the Kyuubi, that he's almost controlling It, plus Orochimaru was never under the Influence of darkness, and Sasuke Uchiha ran from Konoha, which means he's no longer a Konoha nin." Tsunadae Explained
"But Tsunadae, the boy had suffered a lot from this village, he could easily turn on us any minute. Orochimaru was of course under the Influence of darkness as my spies had told me. And Uchiha Sasuke only left the village to probably to exterminate Orochimaru and Itatchi, only for his plan to foil under the Demon." Danzo Explained
"Think what you want with Sasuke, he's getting punished, and unhandcuff Naruto Uzumaki this Instant." Tsunadae Ordered, the ANBU nodded and Unhandcuffed Naruto, rubbing his wrists
"Either you don't accept this or not Tsunadae, Sasuke Uchiha was under the Influence of the curse seal, he must've realised his mistake and decided to take advantage of the situation, he only agreed to stay with Orochimaru to free him from the Influence of darkness, he then would've wanted to kill Itatchi." Danzo Objected
"And tell me Danzo? How do you know that was his objective?" Tsunadae Asked, With a stern voice
"Because I'm the one who told him that." Replied a figure coming out of the doors
The figure was around Naruto's age 15, he was a male, as tall as Naruto, had fair skin, black eyes, black short hair shaped like a duck's ass. A long open shirt, dark blue long skirt underneath dark long shorts, wearing a giant purple string like a belt and wore blue ninja sandals. The figure was smirking and he was known as Sasuke.
"SASUKE!" Naruto Exclaimed
"WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?! ANBU ARREST HIM!" Tsunadae Ordered, the ANBU didn't do anything, which made Sasuke smirk even more
"Now, Now, That Is no way to treat a noble, Isn't that right Hokage-Sama?" Sasuke Asked Sarcastically
"WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING HERE?! HE SHOULD BE STRAPPED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED?!" Tsunadae Demanded, Rage In her voice
"Tsunadae calm down, Sasuke Uchiha had been released and has a voice In this matter. He should tell his end of the story before we discuss any other matters." Danzo Explained, with a Smirk on his face
"What Is the meaning of this!" Tsunadae Growled In rage
"The meaning of this Tsunadae. Is for my actions to be explained by this whole council. You see, I've told Danzo-Sama the whole thing. I ran away at first so I could get Orochimaru away from the Influences of darkness. Overall It was a secret mission that only Danzo-Sama should know. If I told you your stubbornness would've gotten In the way and ruin the whole mission." Sasuke lied, "After I had the training from Orochimaru I was goanna convince him to return to the village and help him to get away from the Influences of darkness." Sasuke Added, "BUT THAT DEMON CAME AND RUINED EVERYTHING!" Sasuke Shouted
"WHAT!" Naruto Exclaimed, as he couldn't believe what he was hearing
"That's right! I told that monster that I was trying to save Orochimaru, but he didn't listen! Ever since we were kids he wanted attention and recognition! He couldn't control the Kyuubi's Chakra and he then tried to kill me out of Jealously! All I wanted to do was save Orochimaru and make this village once again a proud and powerful village like before!" Sasuke Cried, but he secretly smirked as the Civillian council buying his story
"WAIT THAT'S NOT TRUE! HONEST I NEVER KNEW HE WAS TRYING TO SAVE THAT SNAKE BASTARD!" Naruto Shouted In defence, but It didn't seem to work
"SHUT UP DEMON! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO TALK RIGHT NOW!" Danzo Roared, "Seeing how Naruto Uzumaki had killed off one of the legendary Sannins and Injured the last loyal Uchiha and also releasing the Kyuubi, we have no choice but to banish you from our beloved village." Danzo Explained, as he received a few nods for agreement by the Civillian Council, but received a few killer Intents from the Shinobi Council but Ignored them
"BANISH HIM! WHY?!" Tsunadae Demanded In Anger
"Because If we kill him then the Kyuubi will be released and come and kill us all. So banishment Is the only way for us to survive." Danzo Explained, "And besides, the boy obviously proved to be a burden to this village years ago. He has no use here, I don't know why Hiruzen didn't Just get rid of him a long time ago?" Danzo Added, as Tsunadae scratched her desk with her nails hard out of rage
"But Naruto Isn't a burden! If you've forgotten let me refresh your memory! Naruto saved the Kazekage's life, saved my life from Orochimaru and the village from the sand sound Invasion! In my case he should've been rewarded!" Tsunadae Growled In rage
"True. But he saved a kage from a different village, that would have no effect on us at all, also you were never meant to be Hokage Tsunadae, I was the one to become Hokage Instead of you, and he may have saved the village, but surely the Uchiha had weakened the one tailed demon before Uzumaki came to beat It. Over all It should've been the Uchiha who should become Chunin." Danzo Shot back, causing Tsunadae to cringe
"So this Is It huh?! You were never made Hokage Danzo because of your methods of taking care of the village! You would destroy everything the first, second, third and fourth had created today!" Tsunadae Growled back at Danzo, "Also the ninja rules clearly states that only the Hokage can banish or unbanish someone! Therefore I have the power to banish Naruto Uzumaki! Not you! Since I see no threat In Naruto I say he's found not guilty and can leave the chambers! Got It!" Tsunadae Finished
"To be honest Tsunadae we had a small conversation before the meeting." Danzo Said as he stood up from his chair, "We discovered about the many debts and people you owe money to. Not to mention your position as Hokage hasn't turned out best for the village. Therefore we had a meeting to discuss about your position." Danzo Added as he pulled out a scroll from his pockets, Tsunade went wide eyed at this as she realised he held a certain type of scroll that allowed council members to vote someone off the position of hokage, "As of today Tsunadae Senju, your position of Hokage Is revoked." Danzo Spoke out
"WHAT!" Exclaimed Tsunadae In Shock, as she watched her position taken away from her right affront of her face, "Then who'll be the next Hokage?" Tsunadae Asked In Shock
"I'll be the new Hokage Tsunadae." Danzo Replied, "And as my first order as Hokage I order Naruto Uzumaki to be banished from the village and never to return again." Danzo Said, as the council started to cheer while the Shinobi sent killer Intent towards the council
"B-But you can't do that! He's the best ninja we got!" Tsunadae Objected, defeat In her voice
"The best? You mean the worst. Ever since the academy the dobe has been the worst student there for a long time. You have me, an Uchiha Elite, who'll bring this village to greatness far times better than the fourth Hokage had." Sasuke Spoke back, with a smirk on his face, Sasuke then turned his view towards Naruto, Smirking In achievement, "And don't worry dobe, I'll take care of the successor of Hokage." Sasuke Informed
"WHAT!" Exclaimed Tsunadae
"We wanted the Uchiha to become successor to Hokage for a long time Tsunadae. But because of your foolishness you let the Demon Brat become the successor. Which Is why I had made Sasuke Uchiha the successor to Hokage." Danzo Informed with a Smirk, which made Tsunadae cringe her teeth In anger
Naruto Just went wide eyed and couldn't believe on what he was hearing. His dream. His goal. His ninja career. All gone by the hands of his former teammate, who was now enjoying every moment of Naruto's loss.
"You have exactly three hours Demon to leave the village. Or you will suffer the consequences." Danzo Informed, as he and the rest of the council with a smirking Sasuke left the room, only leaving Tsunadae with Naruto
"Naruto….. I'm so sorry about all of this. I-I didn't know this was going to happen, If I had known any sooner that Danzo and the council would kick me out of my position I would've-." Tsunadae was cut off by Naruto
"That's okay granny. The council has been going after my ass since the day I walked my first steps." Naruto Said, giving a faked smile that Tsunadae easily saw through
Without another word, Naruto had left the chambers and went outside of Konoha.
(Location, Hokage's Office)
Danzo, the new sixth Hokage was sitting In his chair.
He smirked In victory. For years he was denied the Hokage's position. For years he tried to achieve this rank. For years he rivalled with Sarutobi to gain this position. Years of hard work. Years of manipulation. And years of Influence had finally gained him the position he wanted to achieve. And all It took was the death of a former Sannin, a lie, and a hungry power Uchiha to become the sixth Hokage.
"You wanted to see me Danzo-Sama?" Sasuke Asked as he came through the door
"Yes I did Sasuke. Seeing how you're the last of your clan you shall be put under a CRA. You get to choose which ones to marry." Danzo Informed, which made Sasuke smirk
"The people I choose will be Ino Yakamana, Hinata Hyuga, Sakura Haruno, Tenten of team Gai, Ayame of the Ramen Shop, and Shizune, apprentice and assistant of Tsunadae Senju." Danzo didn't know why Ayame and Tenten, given their status of being In a lower Clan, but as long as It Involves bringing back the Uchiha Clan then there was nothing he can argue against
"You have my word, I'll send an ANBU to Inform them Immediately." Danzo Said, As Sasuke smirked In achievement, "But may I ask why choose Tenten of team Gai and Ayame of Ichiraku's Ramen shop to be your wives, same goes for Shizune, I'll warn you she's Just like her master annoying and stubborn." Danzo Asked
"Because It's not Just about reforming my Clan. I Just need them to help produce more Uchihas while the other wives takes care of them, also because I want the dobe to suffer, I want to see him suffer that I used his friends as cattle to produce some Uchias to the mighty Uchiha Clan. And when the time Is right I'll kill Tenten, Ayame and Shizune. Tenten because she Is loved by Neji Hyuga, killing her will show the Hyuga Clan that we're more strict then them. Ayame was one of the first friends the dobe has made, taking her life will make him suffer that he lost the first friend he had. Shizune I heard also cares for the dobe a lot, killing her will further his suffering. Hinata I know has a crush on the dobe, If I take her as my wife I'll force her to tell the dobe she has a crush on him, and that he had lost his chance to ever be loved In this world. Ino always had a crush on me since Kindergarten, she would do anything for my attention, even though married she'll still want attention, which would Involve her taking care of the next generation of the Uchihas when her and the other wives produce a few. And Sakura….. Let's Just say she's like Ino, she always had a crush on me since Kindergarten. But… Seems like she lost that crush during her training with the old hag, and only wants me as a friend, but when we marry I know she'll want to gain my acknowledgment, she would be at the same position as Ino. Also the dope loves Sakura a lot. If I take her he'll crack like an egg. Which Is why I want to marry her first before the others." Sasuke Replied, with a Smirk on his face
"As long as the Uchiha Clan Is rebuilt and their allegiance to Konoha remains then I do not care for whatever happens to those women." Danzo Said, It was true, he never really cared about love, he always had his eyes on power, and status
Sasuke left the room with the smirk on his face still.
However.
Unknowingly to Sasuke and Danzo, Naruto sent a Shadow Clone to spy on what they were discussing. Once the Shadow Clone "POOF!" Away. Naruto Immediately got the memories of his Shadow Clone. Thanks to Jiraya teachings.
(With Naruto)
Naruto had Just received the memories of his Shadow Clone. And Immediately sent few more to his friends, while Naruto himself ran towards Sakura's house to tell her the news.
One thing for sure, Naruto had a bad feeling Inside of his stomach.
DONE!
Authors Note: So yeah. I'm ending the chapter there. A little short about 3,000 words. But I wanted to finish this quick because It's Just the first chapter, the next one will be a little longer than this.
I Just wanted to say that I was busy playing "Star Wars: Battlefront III" On PS4.
Naruto knows the secret behind Shadow Clones and the Rasen-Shuriken?: I'm goanna have Naruto know these Jutsus a little early In the story, I'll have a few flashbacks probably to explain It.
Don't worry Danzo and Sasuke will get their Just deserts soon.
Read And Review Please.
Naruto I don't own, that's Shoenn Jump.
Explanation: I had this story on my hard drive for a while now and Just wanted to finish the first chapter so badly. Hope you enjoy.
