Prologue
Flight 150
.
.
.
"Be careful, otouto."
Sasuke stopped hugging his brother and took a step back.
"I'll be fine, nii-san."
It was almost midnight in Narita Airport, Tokyo. Itachi Uchiha, Sasuke's older brother, was dropping him at the airport today. He was carrying one medium sized luggage that was pitch black in colour. He didn't want to carry a lot of things to Los Angeles, but his brother insisted him to carry more stuff than he needed it. Well, his older brother was always rather protective over him.
The Uchiha brothers were orphans for eight years now. The eldest, Itachi, was a long-haired man that was considered as the family's prodigy. When their parents were killed in a car crash, Itachi was appointed as the CEO of the Uchiha Corps, replacing his father's position. He was only 20 years old at that time. The youngest son of the Uchihas was Sasuke. People said that he looked more like their mother, Mikoto. His hair was dark blue in colour, with his bangs framing his face. The back of his hair naturally stood up as if it was zapped by electricity. Sasuke tried to convince everyone who asked him that his hair was naturally like that. They didn't believe him.
Both brothers actually looked similar. The two inherited the pale complexion of the Uchihas. Itachi and Sasuke were both pretty cold towards strangers as well, but they were actually pretty warm inside. The brothers were always close, no matter what happened between them.
Years ago, Sasuke got angry at Itachi because he was always busy. The college boy shouted at his older brother, turning pretty emo for the next few months. After a few weeks of talking some sense to the dense Sasuke, the raven finally understood that it was Itachi's responsibility to take care of the company. The prodigy was very successful, he even led the company even better than his own father, Fugaku. When Sasuke graduated from his Business School, the younger sibling joined him in leading the company.
The company grew stronger than ever, and now they were going to expand their empire all the way to the United States.
Beginning by sending Sasuke to Los Angeles.
Itachi disagreed to the idea at first. He said he should send someone else instead, but Sasuke's talk woke him up.
"I'm an adult now, will you please start believing in me!?"
He didn't want Sasuke to retort back to his emo phase in college, so after further consideration he decided to send him there. All that he needed to do was meet the client in Los Angeles, and then continued their meeting until they got a conclusion. Sasuke was a good businessmen, Itachi was sure he could do the job properly.
But the brunette was feeling restless. He was nervous about sending Sasuke alone. The two were rarely separated.
"Sasuke.. I got a bad feeling about this."
"Tch. Stop being annoying. I'll be fine, nii-san."
Itachi took another deep breath. "Alright then, I know you can do it. Just.. stay safe, okay? Let me know if you are boarding the plane."
Sasuke adjusted the luggage's carrier and looked at his brother. "Sure, I'll text you. See you soon, Nii-san."
And with that, Sasuke went inside the gates to check in. He refused Itachi's help, even though his brother could still go inside. The older brother stared at Sasuke as he was inside. Sasuke glanced back and waved to his brother. There it was, another bad feeling.
He felt that he wouldn't see Sasuke for a very, very long time.
.
.
.
Flight 150, Gate E3. After taking note of that, Sasuke slipped his ticket inside his passport once he checked in his baggage. Before he went through the immigration, he took a quick trip to the restroom. Once he was inside, he took a good look at his reflection on the mirror.
Sasuke Uchiha was wearing a matching black tailored suit with a white shirt inside. A royal blue tie hanged around the shirt's collar. He adjusted his tie and combed his hair. Sasuke knew he was a metrosexual man. He cared for his appearance. He already sprayed some perfume before his long trip to the airport. The raven finished his business, took his black sling bag and walked to the immigration.
To be honest, this was Sasuke's first trip outside of Asia. He was going somewhere very far, and he was actually quite nervous. He didn't want to show any of it to Itachi. If he did, then his brother would just send someone else. The raven wanted to contribute to the company, and this was his time.
He glanced at his silver wristwatch. One more hour till boarding. He browsed around the airport to waste his time. Sasuke walked inside a bookstore and bought a book. It looked intriguing. He decided to read it right away. He read the book while walking to his gate. He tried his best not to fall asleep. It was still daytime in Los Angeles.
.
.
.
Sasuke was reading his book in silence in his seat when the announcer said that it was time to board the plane. Following the queue, Sasuke closed his book and placed it inside his bag, and he opened his phone to text Itachi.
'Boarding the plane. I'll let you know once I land in LA.'
A split second later, his phone vibrated. That must be from Itachi.
'Okay. Be careful, Sasuke.'
After seeing the reply, Sasuke turned his phone off immediately. The queue was pretty long, so he just stood there silently. A couple of girls was giggling when they saw him. Sasuke just tried his very best to ignore those girls. He knew why. Sasuke was one of those people that had been gifted with incredibly good looks. That means everyone would flock around him because of his handsomeness. Sadly, most of them were annoying girls, and he didn't even like them. The only female species he respected was his late mother.
As he let his mind wander around, the queue was shortened. The plane was right in front of him. He raised his right foot to enter the big vehicle.
"Hello, sir. May I see your ticket, please?"
Sasuke gave him his ticket.
"Seat 47A. Please turn right here, sir. Thank you. Enjoy your flight."
The raven followed the flight steward's order. His seat was apparantly almost at the back of the plane. He walked slowly in the long queue again, hearing the soft jazz music playing in the background. The flight was not so full, but it was still crowded for Sasuke. When he finally reached his seat and he sat right away. He got a window seat that was on the left side of the aircraft. What sucks was that there were two seats on the sides of the plane. He hoped whoever sat next to him wasn't annoying.
He placed his bag under the seat in front of him and clasped his seat belt. There was a screen in front of him. He turned it on, and it showed various of menus inside. Well, at least this would keep him entertained for eight hours. He hoped so.
Sasuke raised his head for a while to scan the crowds. A toddler was crying somewhere in that room. He hated children's cry. A woman was arguing with someone that could be her husband. Sasuke just sighed and rested his head on the seat.
Not long after that, a figure stepped in the area. The tanned and blonde man was wearing a very ugly and bright orange jacket. It was unzipped, as it showed the black "I Love Ramen" T-shirt inside. The colour hurt Sasuke's eyes. The man wore a light blue jeans that fit his figure well. The man capture his eyes because the long sleeved jacket was quite tight, showing the toned muscles of the man. Sasuke felt himself shifting in his seat. He admitted the blonde looked hot.
The man was scanning the labels above the seats, and his eyes stopped suddenly, at Sasuke. Sasuke guessed that the man would seat next to him.
And he was correct.
The blonde put his black backpack on the cabin above and sat next to Sasuke. He grinned to the man as a greeting to Sasuke. He was hot, said Sasuke to himself.
Flight stewardresses were walking here and there to make sure that everything was in order. They portrayed the safety procedure that Sasuke remembered very well. He decided not to pay attention and stared at the window instead. His mind was wondering elsewhere, but he was thrilled inside because he was sitting next to a good looking man.
"Your hair looks like a duck butt."
With that very sentence, his dreams and hopes for the tanned man shattered. He was annoying. Sasuke glared at the man.
"Did you styled it that way everyday?" the blonde smiled cheekily to him.
"It's natural."
"Noo wayy!"
The hottie was an annoying idiot.
Sasuke glanced at the passport that was on the blonde's lap. It was a Japanese passport.
He decided to ignore the man.
"What's your name, duck butt?"
"Don't call me duck butt."
He couldn't ignore the man.
"What's your name then, princess?"
Sasuke sent him a death glare. The blonde just grinned in return.
"I'm Naruto. Naruto Uzumaki." the tanned man offered his hand to Sasuke.
Naruto, huh? It sounded like the fishcake. Sasuke decided to shook the man's hand.
"Sasuke. Sasuke Uchiha."
"Uchiha? I've heard that somewhere before."
"Hn." the raven just turned his head to the screen in front of him. Maybe he should watch a movie to ignore the blonde.
"You're a prick." Naruto crossed his arms on his chest.
"Excuse me?"
"You're trying to ignore me."
Sasuke turned his head sharply so it faced Naruto once more.
"Listen, usuratonkachi. I don't know you. I don't talk to strangers. And you just insulted me. If you don't mind, I prefer to be alone now."
Naruto pouted in his seat. The blonde parted his mouth a little, as if he was going to be angry, but he decided to shut his mouth. Good. So he did have a brain.
Suddenly the jet's engine was getting louder and louder, signaling the passengers that they were going to take off. The plane was zooming across the runway, the sound of the engines were ringing on the raven's ears. Soon, he felt the tires of the plane lifting from the ground, the plane tilted upwards as it flew to the midnight sky. Sasuke subconsciously leaned to the window to look at the view. Tokyo was beneath him. He was leaving Japan for the first time. The scenery was magnificent. In the dark sky, lights from the buildings of the city was visible from above. It showed that the city of Tokyo never slept.
The plane was still tilting upwards when Sasuke took a glance at Naruto beside him.
The blonde was looking at the window next to Sasuke, possibly looking at the same scenery.
"I'm going to miss Tokyo." Naruto sighed and stretched his arms upwards.
Sasuke got curious. He decided to ask the man.
"What are you going to do in LA?"
Naruto dropped his arms and stared at the raven. Then, his expression changed. He grinned with a very cheeky look.
"Ooh, what happened to Mr I-dont-talk-to-strangers?" Naruto wiggled his eyebrows.
Seeing his reaction, Sasuke only responded with "Tch." and turned his face to look at the window once more.
"I'm just kidding!" said Naruto. A sudden "ding" was heard all over the plane, signaling that it was safe to unclasp their seatbelts now. "Okay.. I'm planning to look for a job there, y'know, as a photographer."
"You're a photographer?"
"Yeah, something like that. I planned to work at a magazine of some sort, but if I don't get any it'll be fine. I wanted to see the city of angels and took pictures of it, then sell it, if anyone was interested."
Sasuke nodded slowly as the blonde was talking in a fast pace.
"How bout you, Sasuke?"
Sasuke stopped nodding to look at the blonde. Naruto was leaning a bit to close to him. He decided to ignore it.
"I'm there for business."
"Oh? What kind? Is it shady?"
He glared at the stupidly handsome man.
"No. Marketing related, we were going to expand our company to the US."
Naruto scrunched his nose, Sasuke guessed that it was his thinking expression.
"Ah! You're from the Uchiha Corps!" Naruto jumped in his own seat and leaned even more closer to Sasuke's face. Alright that was way too close.
"Move," Sasuke pushed Naruto away. He was actually blushing, just a little. He adjusted his tie. "Yes, I work there."
Naruto put his hands to his own chin. "But.. I'm sure I heard that name from elsewhere.."
Sasuke looked at him confusement. Again, he decided to ignore the blonde.
"Ah, nevermind." the blonde stared at his screen. "Wanna watch something?"
The Uchiha stared at his own screen in front of him. Somehow Naruto made him nervous. Was it because he talk to much?
"Yeah. Probably.. Star Wars."
"The new one?"
"Hn."
"Ah! It was cool! Alright let's watch them!"
And Sasuke Uchiha was stuck to interact with the good looking tanned man.
.
.
.
"Excuse me, sir. Would you like to eat chicken teriyaki or spaghetti bolognaise?"
Both Naruto and Sasuke paused their movie. They were already flying for three hours, and it turned out it was time for a meal. The two were watching their second movie, Carol. This was going to be a long flight, so the two of them decided to watch something that they haven't watch yet.
Naruto was the first to tilt his head to face the black-haired stewardress.
"I'll have the chicken, please."
Sasuke tilted his head to face the same direction as Naruto's.
"Spaghetti."
The girl nodded, as the man opened up their table for the stewardress to place the meal. The girl put Sasuke's meal first, and then Naruto's. Sasuke glanced at the food in front of him. The tray was filled with all sorts of foods. Wow. The main dish was wrapped in aluminum foil. They gave them a chocolate cake as well, and a small mineral water was provided.
"Would you like something to drink, sir?"
"Coffee." Naruto and Sasuke spoke out loud at the same time. After that weird incident, they simultaneously stare at each other. Huh, odd.
The woman gave them their coffees, and pushed her cart away from them.
Sasuke opened the wrapper of the meal. Oh, wow.
The spaghetti was topped with real tomatoes. He took the utensils from its wrapper and used them to eat. Naruto was mirroring his action next to him.
They played the movie again as they gobbled their foods. Naruto was mumbling something about how the food was damn good, and Sasuke silently agreed with him. He hadn't had tomatoes in a while.
Halfway through the movie, Sasuke secretly glanced at Naruto. The blonde's eyes was fixated to the screen, with the coffee on his right hand.
How did he get so comfortable with a stranger?
Sasuke shouldn't get this comfortable. They just met a few hours ago, and he didn't hit the blonde or something.
Yet.
He sighed and rubbed his temples to ease his thoughts. Naruto seemed to notice that.
"Something wrong?"
"Nothing."
"You sure?"
Sasuke decided to not be too comfortable with him. Okay, just glare at him, then.
"Yes, I'm okay."
Somehow, he couldn't be that mean to Naruto. The blonde just shrugged it off and continued to mind their own business.
.
.
.
They were already flying for four and a half hour. They were above the Pacific Ocean by now. The weather turned a bit ugly, as Sasuke could see the droplets of rain starting to form outside the window next to him. He hoped the rain would pass soon. The two of them were silent, as Naruto looked as if he was thinking deeply. Sasuke chose to let him be.
A few minutes later, Naruto opened his mouth to broke the awkward silence between them.
"Now I remember."
"What?"
Naruto paused his movie. Sasuke decided to do the same, since the blonde seemed serious.
"I remember the name Uchiha. Say, did you know an old man named Hagoromo?"
Sasuke burried his eyebrows together to try to recall a lost memory.
"Yeah, he's a teacher to the family..of some sort." Sasuke stared at Naruto for a while. "You knew him?"
"He used to teach me Ninshu. You know, chakra control?"
"Yeah..yeah, I remember him." How did he know about that old man?
Naruto nodded in excitement. "Alright, you see, one day he approached me in the playground."
"How old were you then?"
"Eight, I guess. Then he suddenly talked about how I looked like his son. He saw me being bullied by people, so he said he would teach me a secret move."
Sasuke was a bit concerned about Naruto. He was all alone in the playground and getting bullied? When he was eight?
"He taught me Ninshu. Long story short, I asked him if he had any other students. All he said was, 'you and Uchiha are my best'".
Now that surprised Sasuke.
"My family was visited by him. Our family was actually quite traditional. One day, when I was about eight as well, I met him because my family wanted me to learn Ninshu, and he just held my palm for a long time. As if he was reading something. He decided to train me." The raven decided to explain it to the tanned man.
Naruto was listening to Sasuke with his palm covering his chin. "Ah! What happened then?"
Sasuke shook his head. "I don't really now. One day he just never came, and my parents said if I ever saw him again, avoid him at all cost."
The blonde scrunched his nose once more. "He disappeared when I was 12 as well. I had no idea why."
"I overheard my family's conversation. They said something about the man being a fraud or something."
Suddenly, a roll of thunder could be heard all over the plane. The two went silent for a moment in reaction to the creepy sound.
Naruto spoke up first. "Uh, okay. But I don't think he was a fraud. His training, it really worked, right?"
"It did. But I haven't used it again for years. How b-"
A lightning stroke once more. It shook the whole plane. The cracklings of thundrer could be clearly heard. The two men gripped to their armrests as the plane shook in a harsh turbulence. Sasuke nervously glanced to the window next to him. The clouds were dark and terrifying. He could see swirling black clouds forming in various of places.
"What the hell..?"
Naruto took a deep breath.
"I-It should be fine. Let's c-"
A second thunder shook the plane in a heavier turbulance. The sign for seatbelts were turned on immediately, and all flight attendants were rushing to sit down on their seats.
The radio annoucement from the pilot was turned on, but no sound was heard there. At this point, a lot of cries was heard from every angle of the plane. Everyone could feel the plane trying to drift away from the terrible clouds. However, the plane dropped down, it made the people squeal, and took a sharp turn to the right. Unfortunately, the whole place seemed to be trapped by those evil clouds. The aircraft was once again shaking in harsh turbulence, the plane even wobbled left to right. Sasuke could feel that the plane was drifting away to another place, just to avoid the clouds.
Sasuke closed his eyes and tried to calm his mind. Calm down, Sasuke, calm down..
The rolling of the thunder was not stopping at this point. The turbulence started to hurt his head ad it made him very dizzy. And now, a burning smell filled the air. What was going on!? An alarm sound was blaring through the speakers.
Naruto suddenly gripped Sasuke's upper arm. In silence, Sasuke touched the man's hand that was holding on to him. Anyone would be terrified at this point. Another roll of thunder could be heard.
And suddenly the third lightning stroke them.
It hit something, possibly the right engine, as suddenly the plane shifted from its original position. The right side of the plane was now higher than the left, makin everyone screaming in absolute terror.
Naruto screamed something about trying to grab the life vest beneath them. He did just as he said. Sasuke and Naruto quickly wore them above their upper clothing. It was hard, as the plane was tilting to the right. Sasuke's head was hurting so much by now.
Focus!
"What's the plan now!?" Naruto shouted to Sasuke on top of his lungs, so he could be heard above the other screaming voices.
"I guess, we'll inflate this thing once we're underwater!?"
"Okay!"
Sasuke was really, really anxious at this point, and he wasn't the panicky tipe. Well, how wouldn't be anxious!?
"Naruto!"
"What!?"
"Do you think we'll survive!?"
"HELL YEA WE WILL!" Naruto's eyes was blaring with anger. "DON'T GO EMO ON ME!"
Another thunder struck near them. Sasuke screamed a few cursing as it made the plane dropped harshly a few feet below.
"Fuck..No.." The raven shut his eyes and bit his lips. His heart was beating uncontrollably, he could hear it in his own eardrums.
.
.
He was going to meet his parents, soon.
.
.
Black swirling cloud was forming around the plane, Sasuke saw it as he tilted his head to the window. What. the. hell.
And with that, another thunder struck the plane. It was not a small one.
It teared the plane appart.
"OH SHIT!" Naruto was screaming at this point. Sasuke was cursing aimlessly as well, they were mortified. Sasuke tried to close his eyes as the force of wind hit him in the face.
They saw they front part of the plane being torn appart and flew forwards, leaving them and the rest of the tail behind. Sasuke could see the view. It was pitch black, clouds were swirling with lightning zapping inside it. The wind struck them in the face. The pressure was so heavy it almost zapped Sasuke and Naruto outside. They hold on to the seat in front of them. Fuck. Some seats were flying, being torn apart, and flew right outside the plane.
They were lucky.
The rest of the plane was falling down to the ocean beneath them.
It was falling in a very fast speed, and everything was a blur to Sasuke.
His head was spinning, he couldn't think straight! The rest of the plane was wobbling back and forth mid air, and everyone was screaming on top of their lungs. Everthing was a blurry to his sight, his ears were ringing, his nose was filled with mixtures of burning scent and the outside air and his eyes were out of focus. His face was hit by the strong gust of wind, that was absolutely terrifying to him.
He was going to die.
"I'm sorry.. Itachi.." he whispered to himself as he shut his eyes in prayer.
His ears suddenly picked up a screaming voice next to him.
"SASUKE!"
"WHAT!?" He screamed in return.
"REMEMBER THE OLD MAN'S LESSON!"
Memories was starting to fill Sasuke. Okay, he knew what to do.
He focused his breathing to fill oxygen into his lungs, and felt a familiar surge all across his body. He felt it burning his veins, his chakra.
Naruto instructed Sasuke into the same position as he was. Bending his upper body into his knees and clutching his arms into the inside of his legs. They were already wearing their life vest.
"DON'T INFLATE THIS UNTIL WE'RE UNDERWATER!" Naruto screamed was muffled as he pressed his face to his thighs.
"I KNOW THAT!" Sasuke responded in another muffled scream.
"READY!?"
And the plane smashed into the ocean's surface.
Done! Whew *wipes sweat* Sooo what do you think of it!? Let me know by writing a review down below!
Okay, usually in the manga or anime, when those characters fell from above, they seemed to be unharmed. I guessed it was because they used their chakras to protect them. In this fic, I used that theory of mine.
Yes, they will use chakra in this fic, but not in the way of Ninjutsu. It will be in forms of Ninshu, the one that Hagoromo first taught to his disciples.
I hope this little explanation cleared any confusions. If you have any questions you can just ask me.
