I don't own Naruto or Shinigamis. I only own the plotline.
He woke face to face with a shinigami.
The shinigami was a hideous looking phantom, sharp teeth and eyes. With claws to bet, and in a field of white.
If the situation wasn't serious, Sasuke would have laughed. It came from a crappy fairy tale. But since it wasn't a funny case in a storybook or a dream, Uchiha Sasuke was freaking out.
He realized that this was real and that he was going to die and was NOT okay with it.
The shinigami started to talk "Uchiha Sasuke human number 3,342,466,834,256,125,124 you might get a second chance, right now you are passing through the realm of death.
"Why would I want live again?" Sasuke asked, trying to keep that smooth cool voice he used to get him out of tough situations. It worked for most people so why not death gods?
" Guess it doesn't appeal to you kid, farewell" the shinigami said in a nasal singsongy voice, showing his fangs.
Actually, a second life sounded pretty good, provided he doesn't get turned into a bug and squished by the shinigami.
"Wait" he called out "What do you mean?"
"Well, for you, a kid named Uzumaki Naruto, human number 3,342,466,834,256,123,176 is trying to bring you home. Since he has the Kyuubi in him, he threatened use with suicide and we don't want to anger Enma king of the dead, who likes that kid."
"Oh, so how do I get this second chance?" It actually sounded pretty good now, but wait why do I get it? Does everyone get this chance?
"You make restitution with me."
"And so why do I get it?"
"Pathetic humans, they always ask too much questions. You get it because a certain Uzumaki misses you and he was a great kid. He thinks about you all the time and misses you. He feels like it's his fault for you leaving him. So technically, he loves you"
"Kid" he continued "Don't hid you emotions. It may seem cool, but it gets really annoying or you can take the alternative route and die…."
"You come back to life, and try to earn his love. Your time limit is a year and you cannot reveal to him that you are actually Uchiha Sasuke. That is cheating, and I don't like cheaters. I once met a cheater in Shinigami School and when I was done with him. He looked like a slug. So don't cheat"
"I won't"
"You will be changed quite a bit"
"What do you mean?"
The shinigami's smirked. "Well, guess you have to figure it out yourself"
"Good luck, kid. I have a feeling that you might need it."
And suddenly the whiteness was shredding. The shinigami was getting smaller and further apart.
There was a strong breeze and the all Sasuke can see is darkness.
