I Do Not Own Naruto
Chapter 1
Everything was serine, for a moment, he was had what he had come for; but he had run into trouble which had him smashing through a wall then. Blasting away from his attacker he coursed as electricity practically as he tried to get away. This intel, it was his ticket home and he was not having that fucked up! A force hit him, he reacted when they parted by smashing into his attacker again as he materialized, turning with his blade in hand. He slammed into a pillar from the force of that had knocked him off balance for a moment.
The attacker materialized then, the weapon was color of red light. His red eyes took in everything that was happening as he hurried away from his pursuer. Another hit in his back had him turning in the air as he raised his sword.
Metal clanged loudly as he turned and intersected the attack on him. They flew apart but Sasuke was done with the defensive as he rushed his coming opponent then.
The force they his reverberated through the temple.
Sasuke's Sharingan took in everything about this giant of an opponent who had a horn protruding from his enshrouded face. Something like a laser's light formed as an arch over the giant's right shoulder then. The giant pulled another red weapon from his light then and Sasuke darted back. The man chased him again. Sasuke was smashed through three pillars in one blow. He rolled to his feet just as he was thrown throw the roof and smashed into the snowy ground outside of the ruined temple.
He slashed as he attacked with his full force now that they were out of the ruins and on an even field for battle here in the open.
Blades clashed, but Sasuke didn't stop as he attacked. The small red blade in the man's left hand finally caught his own. Sasuke didn't let go though as he slammed his knee into the man's ribs, the giant moved away from his second kick so Sasuke only got the man's huge brute arm.
The man raised his right hand over head then, Sasuke's eyes took in the subtle moves as his opponent tried to hide his pain from the blows Sasuke had landed on his person. Seeing the decending weapon Sasuke shifted all of his weight into the direction the man had been trying to shove him in. twisting his body up into the air he twisted his blade in it's hold, he heard the red laser blade snap as he twisted for a counter attack.
He slammed his foot into the giant once he was free of the blade. No sooner had his feet hit the ground when he had leapt again, twisting his body in the air again as he lashed his leg out to kick the falling blade back at the man. The giant barely defected the blade as it came at him. Sasuke wasn't ready for the counter attack though as he was knocked back but a burst of powerful energy. Slamming into the rock he barely had a second to pull his blade out of the rock when the giant was upon him again.
Sasuke was smashed through the rock, the wind was knocked out of him but he didn't stop the fight as he ignored the sensation of not being able to breath. He skidded on his feet for a few seconds when he was slammed into another rock. Metal clashed again as he intersected the bladed fist aimed for his chest. Sasuke's feet slammed into the man's chest to keep him off of him. A slip of his foot had him stopping man's other arm coming at him. A duck of a twist below the man's arm had him escaping as he spun around to slice through the protruding horn.
He leapt back though when those angry wide bladed punches came for him. Slashing and twisting around his opponent he heard the metal clanging from their hits on occasion as he tried to finish this quickly. It was now a test of strength as he glared into the exposed eye of his opponent. Sasuke got the upper hand then when he slipped his sword through a hole on the blade, giving him the leverage he needed as he slammed the knife into the ground then. His heel slammed onto the hilt of his sword, lodging the weapon into the stony ground.
The other arm slammed into him, knocking him into the air which had him twisting his body up to land on the man's sholders. Absently he drew one of his wife's poisoned kunai, a gift from her in her last 'care' package; he moved to stab the man's skull then. The giant grabbed his wrist and threw him over his shoulder. Sasuke was slammed into the ground, but he smashed into the man's coming fist to slid him across the snow and ice. Shoving his body up he arched his body as he moved through the air to land on his feet again. The light energy was coming at him, he performed a one handed sign then to replace himself with that statue.
He slid to a stop then as he stood up straight then. His eyes narrowed on the chuckling voice above him then. He ignored his opponent as he stared at the laughing man.
"You're sloppy, Kinshiki," the veiled man laughed.
The wind picked up then and he sprung his Rinnegan to life then as he prepared to leave with the informarion he had acquired.
"Oh? Rinnegan, huh," the man was giving him a thoughtful look which he ignored. As he stepped through the portal and slammed it shut as he let out a breath of relief then. Time to return home, and with this information he had a good feeling he'd be staying home for a bit. Perhaps he'd be home in time to see his daughter's Chūnin Exams, she had sounded excited about that in her last letter.
"I have dad's letter!" Sarada called out as she came running out of her room.
"Alright, his hawk will be here later today, I'll put it in," Sakura said as she took the letter from her. Sakura smiled at the sight of her excited daughter who slid into her seat for her breakfast. "Excited for your mission?"
"Yup! Though Boruto is a glory hog," Sarada grumbled disgruntledly as she started shoveling her food into her mouth. Sakura sighed, Boruto and Sarada were turning out to be a lot like her, Sasuke, and Naruto. She didn't know how to feel about that, she was just happy that Boruto and Sarada weren't trying to kill each other, yet. She had a feeling that it was because Sarada had a goal to be Hokage one day, and killing Naruto's son would not be a good way to become Hokage. It was probably the only thing keeping them from killing one another.
"Just do your part, and try to remind him to work as a team. One day he'll get it figured out that being a glory hog gets him nothing," Sakura assured her daughter.
"Yeah right," Sarada rolled her black eyes then and finished her breakfast to run out of the apartment. "I'll see you later mom!"
"Be safe!" Sakura called out as her daughter leapt on the rooftops then.
"I will!" Sarada shouted over her shoulder as she ran off. Sakura chuckled as she walked back into her apartment and got ready for her day. She pulled her sleep shirt over her head; Sasuke's shirt; and then grabbed a bra to pull on a comfortable sweater. Today she'd be meeting up with Temari and Ino from lunch, and she had a shift at the hospital.
A tap on her window had her looking over her bare shoulder as she covered her bra encased chest. Since moving to the apartment she had caught Boruto following in his father's pervert ways which had had her furious. Naruto and Hinata were just thankful he didn't have the Byakugan, but they had also expertly left Boruto's discipline in her capable hands.
One spar with her her had the boy swearing off peeping for all eternity; she hadn't hurt the kid, just scared him half to death. She had done that really well.
"Hm?" instead of Boruto or a neighborhood boy she saw a hawk between her curtains. Grabbing the discarded shirt she pulled it over her head as she pulled her curtains open and then opened the window to the bird. It was Sasuke's and she smiled as it flew into her room then. He was on her wardrobe, she then reached up to the message pouch.
"What are you doing pretty bird?" she asked as she gently stroked the bird.
Sakura's fingers pulled out the small message which had her breath hitching, her heart stuttering, and her knees giving out as she collapsed onto the floor as her eyes welled up with tears of joy. She covered her mouth in her joy as she choked back the sob that threatened to escape her.
I'm coming home.
Three simple words that had her smiling.
Oh Sasuke! She mused in her mind as she held the note close to her chest and smiled. He was safe, he was alive, and he was going to be home in time for Sarada's coming exams. Standing up she then got dress, she slipped her reply into the message pouch as she let the hawk go again and then skipped out of her apartment. Sasuke would be home, she'd have to plan a special dinner for him, something with tomatoes… she'd ask Ino for advice on this.
"BORUTO!" she shouted at him as she tried to get him to slow down to travel with their team. How was it that they always ended up like this!? Her and Mitsuki, with Konohomaru behind them; and Konohomaru never seemed incline to scold Boruto for his unruly behavior. And Sarada had honestly had enough of this, they were a team but Boruto never acted like it.
It was times like this that she hated the seventh for putting her on a team with his son.
Boruto was an insufferable, spoiled, pain in the ass, brat! And the worst part of it all was because he wanted his dad's undivided attention he acted like a brat! Sarada despised how bratty he could be, mostly because he had no reason to be such a brat because his dad was here in the village and gave him attention. Even if Naruto only gave Boruto shadow clones. She had to write her father! And even then it wasn't known if she'd get a reply, do not talk to her about absent fathers! Sasuke had been involved with her life for a grand total a week.
And Kami knew she now understood her mother's pain for missing him.
She loved her father, loved him a lot, but she had long since accepted that he wasn't going to be home to be involved with her training. It irritated her to know that, but her mother said her father loved her very much, and her father had become her favorite pen pal in the entire world because he had constantly assured her that he loved her.
"Boruto! Slow down!" she shouted as she chased him. He was a dobe! He was annoying and when she got her hands on him she was strangling him.
"Sarada!" she glared at their gold eyed teammate, Mitsuke.
"What!?" she snapped.
"Let him go," Mitsuki ordered.
"We're chasing a panda!" she reminded them, she wasn't letting him get mauled by a stupid bear. Mostly because she was going to kill that brat! The annoying, good for nothing dobe was going to get another lesson in Uchiha wrath! As if he hadn't learnt enough from her mother, the first time!
"Yes, but it will not do if we all leave formation!" Konohomaru informed her as he continued chasing her. She growled in her frustrations, when her father got home she was having him kick the dobe's ass! And giving Boruto the fear of Kami if he didn't work in the team, she was getting sick and tired of this!
Hey, old piece; again, and instead of bouncing it around (again), I've decided to just post it as a separate piece.
Yes, this is a tie in with my Until the Day I Die Story, so there might be minor spoilers there. I'm making edits; minor edits for details, so there will be a few changed things, but other than that... it's the same story.
There is to be a posting of a chapter a day here, I'll edit one chapter of the original Dobe Jr. before posting. So for the next twenty days be prepared for updates! =)
And yes, I might make a complimentary piece for this for Until the Day I Love, later though.
That's all for now folks!
Enjoy Until the Day I Die: Scarlet Spring! =)
