Chapter one

Naruto held his best friend for as long as he could. Sasuke yelled, "let go, Naruto!" A vortex had opened when Madara's Susano'o collided with Sasuke's chidori and Naruto's Rasenshuriken. Madara is dead. Naruto shook his head, "No!" Sasuke smirked, "goodbye, Dobe." He threw a kunai at the blonde's hand, causing him to let go of the black-haired teen. "Sasuke!" Was the last thing he heard. When he opened his eyes, he was in a blue limousine, with a woman in blue and a long nosed man.

"Welcome to the Velvet Room," the long nosed man said, "my name, is Igor. It is a pleasure to make your aquaintance." Sasuke shifted slightly, "What is this place, and... Where am I?" Igor gave a chuckle, "In time, you will find out." Sasuke nodded. He looked at the woman, and for the first time, he noticed her eyes. She noticed the teen's stare and looked at him, "I am Margaret, a resident of this room." Sasuke nodded slightly. He slowly felt his consciousness fade. He opened his eyes with a start. A gray haired boy was sitting next to him, "Are you alright, Sasuke?" *pursue my true self began to play in the background* Sasuke nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a nightmare." The gray haired teen frowned, "What was it about?" Sasuke rubbed his chin, "You know I can't remember, Yu." Sasuke's brother chuckled, "Was it about those people that shoot themselves to summon monsters again?" Sasuke chuckled, punching Yu's shoulder, "Not funny, bro." They both burst out laughing. Sasuke looked out the window, looking at the beach, that they're passing by.

Sasuke smiles, "So where did Mom say we were going again?" Yu sighed, "She said we were visiting our Uncle for a year." Sasuke nodded.

That night, they arrived at the Yasoinaba Station. "Hey, over here." They heard a man's voice. They noticed a man and a little girl walk over to them. "Sasuke, Yu, it's been a while." Sasuke looked at him, "Do we know you?" The man laughed a little, "You don't remember? Well that is excusable, I haven't seen you since you were in diapers after all." Sasuke shuddered slightly. "Well, I'm your mother's younger brother, that about sums it up." Sasuke noticed the little girl. "Who's this?" He asked. "Oh this is my daughter, Nanako. Go on say hello to your cousins." Nanako mumbled, "...'lo..." There uncle, Dojima, chuckled, "Come now, Nanako, what are you so shy about?" Nanako's face became red and she slapped the back of Dojima's leg. "Ow! Hahaha!" They all got in the car and drove towards town.

They drove to the gas station, Moel. "Can you go by yourself?" Dojima asked. Nanako nodded. "Uhuh." Dojima sighed, "Good a time as any for a smoke." Dojima walked off to the smoking section of the gas station. The attendant walked over, "Haven't seen you two before," he said with a smile, "You must be new to the town, Well, let me be the first to say, welcome to Inaba." Sasuke nodded, looking into the attendant's reddish-brown eyes. He felt a strange familiarity to them. He held out his hand, "My name's Sasuke I. Narukami. It's a pleasure to meet you." The attendant smiled and held out his hand, "You can call me Izzy Nami." Yu shook the man's hand and got back in the car. "Izzy Nami, huh?" Sasuke said with a smile, "Sounds like that goddess, what was her name again?" Sasuke rubbed his temples and smiled, remembering, "Izanami, that was her name, she was my favorite in the old stories about gods and goddesses." The attendant gave a warm smile, "She was my favorite too," as Sasuke was about to get in the car, the attendant asked, "Say what does the I in your name stand for?" Sasuke smiled, "It stands for Izanagi." The attendant was startled. Sasuke got back in the car, and Dojima and Nanako came back. They left the gas station and drove towards the Dojima residence. On the way, Yu got a bad migraine. When they arrived, Yu's migraine was gone.
