In The Blood
Summary: Sasuke is one of the last Uchiha, a dying breed of a genetically superior race. He is hunted for the secret of his blood and he can't afford friendship or honour in the fight for survival, yet a certain idiot may just reignite his faith in the human race…or damn them both to extinction (futuristic/fantasy AU. Eventual NaruSasu)
A/N: So I haven't managed to get everything up that I wanted to, but this bunny stole my soul so I had to plan it out properly. Here's the Prologue, the first part of chapter one up on livejournal until I finish it...
Prologue: Only Human
A young boy, who looked rather exotic for the current locality with his dark eyes and pale complexion, scrambled up the side of an abandoned building, his bared toes finding uncanny purchase on the seemingly smooth surface.
Below there circled various 'Hunter' types, their sensory equipment rendered useless by a concentrated burst of chakra. He curled into the remains of an old ventilation shaft and waited out their search, his eyesight somehow picking out their physical features even in the dimness. Later he would hack into the Database and find out who they were and whether they would pose a future threat to him.
Luckily it was night and they were merely human, so as expected they eventually moved on in search of new prey.
Sharingan tracked them until they were out of sight before their possessor jumped from his perch, landing lightly in a crouch six stories down.
He made a mental note as he replaced his sandals and dusted off his shorts to find more concealing clothes; this time they had been ignorant of his true value, having targeted him only for his looks, which would still have gained a fair price on the flesh market. Had they realised who, and what he was, they would not have given up so easily. Next time he might not be so fortunate and would be forced to kill in order to escape.
He was an Uchiha after all and could not afford compassion.
