What it do guys.
So I'm one of the few people who think Sasuke is actually a badass character in concept and not an emo edgelord (All of the time), so I think I'm gonna write a crossover fic focused on him, because he's badass. Also I don't feel like writing about how the language barrier is overcome.
Sue me.
Chapter 1: The Call of The Moon
Eyes are more than just so, for they are windows to the soul. To the eyes brimming with love, to the eyes burning with hatred, the soul can never hide what it feels from the eyes.
And his have seen much.
They have seen the greatest acts of love and affection this world has to offer, as well as the most vile, hatred filled acts a mere human could ever conceive.
He liked to believe that he had learned much since he began his journey, to discover the world through his own eyes, to pass judgement based on what he has known, and what he has seen. The idiot must have gotten to him, because he couldn't resist interfering with the cruelty and hatred along his path.
His eyes themselves were another oddity. His right eye bared the mark of his clan, the legacy left behind from his brother, his parents, and his entire ancestry.
His left, was something more. Its legacy was of destruction, death, and tyranny. The eye of the ten tailed monster of the apocalypse, as well as the eye of the terrible Rabbit Goddess. This eye was stained in more blood than he could imagine, yet this time around, he would make sure this eye was cherished as a symbol of peace and stability.
He had gained this eye through means he did not fully understand at the time, inheriting an ancient power not seen for ages in order to save a world he believed to be beyond redemption. However, even with his eyes, he was still unable to truly see, and it took a battle to the death with his best and only friend to do so.
He sighed and tilted his head back against the tree, staring up into the starry night sky. Despite the toll that battle had taken on him, he would be lying if he said that he did not want to fight him at least once more, to settle once and for all their lifelong rivalry. The toll was almost the complete destruction of his left arm, from the shoulder all the way down. Remarkably, through the use of the First Hokage's cells and the Fifth Hokage's healing prowess, his arm survived the ordeal, but not without considerable pain in the process.
But with his left arm, survived the Yin power, signified by the crescent on his left palm. Besides giving him the ability to sense the idiot's chakra, even from different dimensions, he did not know what other abilities or traits the mark had. Then, as if on cue, his left palm began to pulsate slightly, he looked down to find the mark glowing. The pulsating began to strengthen, and then, the dam broke.
A torrent of emotions washed over him, agony, hatred, fear. He closed his eyes and tried to will these emotions away, but they only grew. As if his condition could worsen, his divine eye began to pulsate as well, chakra began to gather in it against his own will. He focused on the emotions he was feeling, and found that they were not his own, but someone else's. More and more of his massive chakra reserves began to gather in his eye, and then it was released.
The air in front of him began to shimmer, and a dark spiraling portal swirled to life. He had no idea where it led, and was more than reluctant to enter, but the intense pulsating of his palm and the waves of vehement emotions left him no choice. He approached the portal, took a deep breath, and jumped through.
"How is our mortal guest?" A deep male voice sounded from the shadows.
"She will not last much longer." A boy with blond hair streaked with gray responded, checking on a young girl with blonde hair who appeared to be holding up the ceiling, an impressive looking feat for someone of her stature.
Then, the clanging of chains could be heard from the shadows and into the light. A girl, no older than 13 years old stumbled into view. Her auburn hair in disarray, her silver dress in tatters, and her skin matted with cuts and dirt.
"You heard the boy… Decide!" The voice boomed.
The girl's eyes shone with power, anger evident on her face. "You will regret this Titan! Torturing an innocent maiden like this!"
The boy turned to her. "You can save her Goddess."
Her teeth were grit so hard they looked like they could shatter at any moment. "Release me." She glared at the boy as he used his sword to free her hands from the chains. She immediately ran over to the struggling blonde girl and took the weight, allowing the blonde to fall to the floor, panting and shivering.
The silver eyed girl did her best to bear the weight, but was straining with effort. Yet she still managed to glare at the shadows.
"Are you positive you are not a demigod? I've never known an immortal to make such a foolish decision." The male voiced laughed.
The girl grunted. "Saving her was not a foolish decision you pig!"
He laughed once more. "It does not change the outcome, Luke, kill the girl."
"No!"
The now named Luke hesitated. "I- We may still have some use of her."
"On what grounds would you think that?"
Luke chose his words carefully. "The Hunters will definitely come to save the Goddess, but Thalia and the others may not, unless we keep her around.
The deep voice hummed. "Very well, I suppose it does not change much in the end… Take her-"
His voice stopped cold, as suddenly the air shimmered near the entrance to the cavern. And a figure stepped through. He had spiky raven black hair that covered his left eye, while his right eye glanced around the area.
Luke's eyes widened. "Intruder! Get-"
He was cut off by the man finally stepping out from the shadows.
"And who are you boy?"
Said boy merely stared at him. "..."
The man laughed. "Not very talkative are we? Very well I will ask a different question, why are you here?"
"...I was called here." He said tonelessly.
The man grinned and turned to Luke. "I am impressed, I did not realize you had such powerful allies."
Luke shook his head, wide eyed. "I-I didn't call him here sir."
The man's grin was replaced with a sneer. "I did not realize the Goddess could call for reinforcements, even while bound in celestial bronze."
His attention was turned to said Goddess, who was struggling immensely with her burden. The mark on his palm began to pulsate, his brows furrowed in annoyance, the mark wanted him to save the girl.
He approached the child before stopping in front of her, studying the object she was holding. He activated his sharingan and what he saw was nothing short of incredible. The pillar he was holding was connected to something so vast he couldn't even comprehend its size. If it fell he could tell the results would be catastrophic. How could a mere girl be holding something without collapsing?
"Who… are you?" She managed to strain out.
He didn't respond, instead he gently pushed her out from under the weight.
"What are you doing! Foolish boy!" She resisted and attempted to push back feebly.
He took on the burden completely and let the girl fall gently to the floor, she was panting and sweaty but managed to rise to her feet. "I know not who you are, but thank you." She turned to glare at the giant of a man. "I will free you momentarily." She summoned two silver daggers and freed herself of the chains binding her feet.
"Come then girl, face the might of Atlas!" He twirled a metal javelin in his hand, a wicked grin on his burly face.
He struggled with the burden as well but managed a single word. "Amenotejikara."
Atlas turned to look down on the boy, only to find himself looking up at him. He went wide eyed, he was standing where he once was, and he looked up to find a massive pillar weighing down on his back.
"No… NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" His voice shook the earth. "NOT AGAIN!"
His rage was met with a blank stare of the one who captured him. He turned away to address the pale boy, but he seemed to have fled. He the noticed a blonde girl who was unconscious on the floor, he sighed and gingerly picked her up, before heading towards the exit.
"Where are you going?"
He didn't turn around. "She needs medical attention."
She put her hands on her hips. "Do you know of any healers boy?"
He remained silent. He supposed he did not know where they were, and this lost, sassy child probably did.
"Lead the way."
She harrumphed before walking past him, her nose sticking in the air slightly. He raised an eyebrow and followed after her.
"It's me my little dragon." She said soothingly. "Zoe has come back."
The dragon seemed confused, some of its heads were hissing while the others were silent.
"Do you still like lamb's meat?"
The dragon eyes shined at the mention of food.
Percy and Thalia had almost made it through the garden, but then, Percy suddenly felt a shift in the atmosphere. For whatever reason, Ladon lunged at his former master, but her millennia of experience saved her as she dodged the first set of flashing fangs. She began sprinting towards the other two.
"ZOE!"
A mouth was mere inches from taking a chunk out of her side.
"Chidori Eiso (One Thousand Birds Sharp Spear)."
The offending head fell lifelessly to the ground, a glowing laser hummed with power where it once was. All three of them turned, wide eyed as they found the source, a black haired boy maybe a year or two older than Thalia. His hand crackled with purple electricity as he stared emotionlessly at the legendary dragon.
Ladon shrieked in pain and began thrashing, barreling over trees as it retreated farther into the forest.
"How dare you just leave me behind like that!" The silver eyed girl stormed up to him, but something was definitely different. She appeared to have aged a few years. She stood almost a foot taller and her face had lost any remnants of baby fat it one had. Her hair had also grown longer and was styled differently.
"Lady Artemis!" Zoe ran over to her mistress.
Artemis smiled at her oldest friend. "It is great to see you Zoe, but the time for reunions is not now, this maiden needs help." She gently set down the blonde girl, who was still unconscious.
"ANNABETH!" The two ravenettes rushed over to her side, looking over her body for any injuries. After finding none, both sighed in relief and turned to the Goddess.
"Will she be okay?" Percy asked
"She will be fine boy, she is a tough maiden." Artemis materialized some nectar and ambrosia, she opened Annabeth's mouth and poured some in, after a few seconds she removed the flask as her eyes fluttered open.
"Seaweed brain?" She asked, dazed.
Percy sniffled slightly. "Yeah, we're right here wise girl."
Thalia laughed and trapped the blonde in a bear hug, eliciting cries of protest from her victim.
After letting her friend go she turned to the Goddess. "Thank you for saving Annabeth Lady Artemis." She smiled gratefully.
Her warm smile gave way to a slight frown. "I'm afraid that credit belongs to someone else." She casted her attention on the boy- no, man standing a few feet away, watching their interactions with mild interest.
Thalia's jaw dropped when she got a closer look at him, he stood likely about 6 feet tall, with jet black hair tinted with a slight amount of blue, her favorite color she might add. His face was similar to Zoe's in the sense that it gave off a regal, prince like sort of aura, yet his seemed softer and more approachable.
She took a deep breath and rose to her feet, stopping right in front of him. "T-Thank you for saving our friend." Much to her dismay, she couldn't keep the stammer out of her voice and the blush off of her face.
He at first assumed she was frightened by him, but the red on her face spoke otherwise. "You're welcome."
The girl beamed at him and before he had time to react gave him a quick hug and ran away, back towards the others.
He raised an eyebrow at the gesture but sad nothing. He looked up at the night sky, the moon lighting up the star filled sky. He still did not know why he was called here, but the pulsating on his palm had halted, so he supposed he had done something right.
Chakra gathered in his left eye, and he attempted to open a portal to Konoha, as that was the place he knew best, the air in front of him shimmered, but as soon as the portal began to form, his palm began to pulsate once more, breaking his concentration. He covered his left eye and allowed the chakra there to dissipate.
It appeared his work here was not finished.
He had to admit, this was the most impressive village, if he could even call it that, he had ever seen. The torches along the sides of the palaces lighted the area in a myriad of colors, people were seen rushing about on what looked like horse drawn wagons, and some even seemed to be inside giant hunks of metal that traveled down the roads.
The silver eyed girl had simply grabbed his arm and teleported them here. The only technique he knew of that could teleport such long distances instantaneously was the Fourth Hokage's Hiraishin, and due to the incredible skill in fuinjutsu required for such a technique, he didn't think it could ever be replicated.
He thought wrong.
The girl, Artemis,l had a vice grip around his wrist as she pulled him through the city. They drew quite a few stares from the surrounding bystanders, they whispered and giggled incoherently as he stared in annoyance to the girl dragging him through the city.
After what seemed like an eternity, they approached a massive white hall at the top of a mountain. Shining silver gates opened with a snap of her hand as she did not hesitate to drag him through, not slowing down for anything.
After a maze of twists and turns he found himself in the most regal room he could ever imagine. Twelve ornate thrones surrounded a massive fireplace, and in each of the thrones except for one stood giants of humans, each standing more than double his own height.
His attention was drawn to a man near the center of the formation, he had long shoulder black hair, and electric blue eyes that seemed to crackle with power. Every one of his insticts screamed at him to keep his guard up, and he'd be a fool not to listen.
"Little sis! I knew they'd save you!" A blonde jumped from his throne and attempted to hug Artemis, only for her to step aside and stick her foot out, letting him fall face first on the marble.
"For the last time Apollo, I am older than you!" She berated her brother, who nodded meekly before returning to his throne.
"Artemis! I am glad you are safe, but exactly who did you bring with you?" All eyes turned to him, and he stared back impassively.
Artemis hesitated slightly but cleared her throat. "He is the… man who defeated Atlas and saved me."
The room instantly burst into chatter, but the man summoned what looked like a thunderbolt and shot it into the sky. "SILENCE!" He boomed.
"Who are you?"
He didn't answer right away, he didn't give away his name earlier due to the complications recognition would give him, but after what he has seen, he severly doubted anyone would recognize his name, or even his clan name.
"Sasuke Uchiha."
The blond shot up from his throne. "Yo are you Japanese! I love Japan!"
"SILENCE!" Apollo sat back down once more.
"Why did you save my daughter?"
Sasuke raised an eyebrow at that. He did not see a resemblance between the two, but that was irrelevant.
"I was called there."
Artemis glared at him. "I did not call you."
A dark haired woman with stormy gray eyes spoke up. "Exactly how did you receive this… call?"
Sasuke raised his left palm, showing the black crescent in the center of it. The dark haired woman shrank down to normal size and took his wrist, she examined the mark on his palm before gasping.
"This mark is coursing with power! It is comparable to a Gods!" She said in wonder, studying the mark closely.
The entire room seemed to tense up but the woman continued. "Its power is linked to the moon itself, which might be why it led him to Artemis." She looked up at him curiously. "What exactly did you feel."
He raised an eyebrow, but decided to answer. "The mark began to pulsate, and an influx of negative emotions clouded my mind, and against my will, I created a portal to bring me to that mountain."
Her brows furrowed. "We can't know for sure, but my hypothesis is that the mark forces Sasuke to come to Artemis's aid when she is in peril, only further testing can let us know for sure."
"WHAT!?" Artemis screamed.
The man's eyes widened. "Young man, did you really defeat Atlas?"
Sasuke opened his mouth to speak but was interrupted. "He did it without even lifting a finger against him." Artemis gave him a suspicious look. "He simply took the burden from me and muttered something, and suddenly Atlas was back under the weight of the world and he was standing where Atlas was."
The man's booming laugh echoed throughout the chamber. "It appears we got off on the wrong foot, I am Lord Zeus, King of the Gods as well as the God of the sky, and I must say I am quite happy that my daughter has such a capable guardian."
Artemis looked irate but Sasuke spoke first. "I am no one's bodyguard Zeus."
Zeus's face darkened. "I don't remember giving you permission to address me so informally mortal."
The tension in the room was palpable.
"Your permission was never required."
The room was dead silent for a solid ten seconds.
Apollo leaned over to the person next to him. "Balls the size of mountains."
The man nodded in agreement, staring wide eyed at the exchange between his father and this newcomer.
Zeus looked like he was trying to disentegrate Sasuke with his glare alone, before he laughed. "Corageous too, it appears you have yourself an excellent guardian Artemis!"
Artemis sent a withering glare to her father. "I have no need for a guardian, especially a male one.
Sasuke's eyes narrowed. "I thought I made myself clear."
He laughed again. "You did, but it does not appear that you have a choice in the matter."
"Tch." He had him there.
All of a sudden, a bright flash shone throughout the hall, and from it, three old woman with strings of yarn appeared.
"Fate has been tampered with." They spoke in unison.
The Gods all tensed, fear evident in their eyes as they stared at the Fates.
"Zoe Nightshade is not meant to have survived the battle of Mount Orthrys, she must die for fate to be restored." Their attention turned to Sasuke. "You have changed fate, your presence in our world will unbalance fate, you must die-"
"Amaterasu (Heavenly Illumination)."
Pitch black flames roared to life on them, each of the three began to writhe in pain on the floor, desperately trying to put out the fire.
"You do not decide my fate." He spoke loudly over their cries of pain, his right eye glowing an eerie red as he stared down at them. "Nor you decide the fate of that girl."
Each of the three glared at him. "It is our duty!" They screamed at him. "Without us the world would fall to chaos!" Their shrill screams tore through the halls.
"Allowing that girl to live will change nothing."
"It unhinges the fate we have foretold!" They argued back.
"Then retell fate." He responded emotionlessly.
"Or what!?" They screamed at him.
"Or burn."
The flames grew in size, covering their entire bodies, they screamed in pain, rolling on the ground in agony.
"Sasuke!" He turned to the Goddess. "If you make them swear on the river styx, whatever they agree to is binding! They cannot break the oath!"
He turned back towards the three. "Swear that you will never again approach I nor Zoe Nightshade ever again."
They retort was cut short by another scream of agony. "We swear on the river styx to never again approach you nor Zoe Nightshade." Thunder boomed overhead, and Sasuke figured the oath was sealed.
He used his right eye to put out the flames, the three quickly disappeared from the throne room, but not before leaving some parting words.
"You will never find peace, Sasuke Uchiha…"
"Hn." He turned back towards the Gods as if nothing had happened.
"Dude how big are your balls?" Apollo asked.
Sasuke looked slightly bewildered by the question.
The man next to him shook his head from his stupor and laughed. "What a weird question Apollo, are you trying to tell us something?"
Apollo caught his meaning and flushed. "Shut up Hermes!"
A melodic laugh sounded throughout the room. "Don't be embarrassed Apollo, I might have been thinking about his balls as well!" Sasuke looked even more bewildered as he turned to an admittedly beautiful woman with bright golden hair who winked at him as he turned to her.
"That wasn't what I meant!" He cried, getting laughs out of everyone in the room.
Sasuke sighed. "I think I hate blondes."
The woman and Apollo looked offended while everyone else's laughter redoubled at that, even Artemis.
Once the laughter died down, a man with a floral colored shirt and a large pitchfork grinned at him. "I like your style kid, say have you met my son?"
Alright so that's done, I have to say I'm pretty pleased with how this came out, and just as a precaution, inb4 people tell me my Sasuke is OOC. I tried to include accuracy to his character as well as his personality being helpful to the plot. He might be a little nicer in this fic than he should be but honestly having him be any more of a dick would kinda ruin my story. So let me know what you think, leave any criticism, suggestions, or comments you may have, as I read and take them all into consideration.
