Wild Serenity
The Chthonic Professor
Summary: Sasuke plunging his Chidori through Naruto's chest is enough to kill the blond, even with the Kyuubi to heal him. It is also, however, enough to awaken Naruto's Planeswalker Spark. Stranded confused and alone amidst the many Planes of the Multiverse, Naruto will do everything he can to find a way home, and maybe learn a thing or two about being a Planeswalker along the way.
Warning: AU storyline.
This will be a ChandraXNaruto story, and only ChandraXNaruto. Sasuke and Naruto will face a couple of hardships, but eventually Sasuke will be redeemed, and the two will develop a strong friendship. This is not a bashing fic either, so please don't ask me to do so.

Prologue - The Jump
-.-
"Hrk!"
Whirling red and black stared, shocked, into pained ocean blue.
The world had frozen. The waters of the Valley of the End's river rushed rapidly below. The leaves of Konoha's forests swayed in the wind high above. Dark clouds rumbled overhead, casting shadows upon the two, small children occupying the deep valley.
Sasuke could see none of this. His vaulted Sharingan spun, wild and active, yet Sasuke couldn't see his surroundings.
All colour, all sound, seemed to have faded from the world.
All, but the colour red.
The colour red, which was slowly bleeding out of Naruto's weary eyes. The colour red, which was slowly dripping down his best friend's chin as he coughed up blood.
With a horrible, terrible squelching sound, Sasuke's hand slipped from where it had been buried completely through Naruto's chest. The normally ever-energetic blond stumbled two steps back, swayed, and leaned forwards.
Sasuke reached forward to catch him on reflex, and faintly noticed just how small and frail the blond looked.
'This… this can't be happening.' Sasuke's thoughts where a whirl. 'Why? Why is this happening?!'
He'd seen it. His Sharingan had been activated. He'd seen, with pristine clarity, the perfect trajectory of Naruto's Rasengan. The technique should have smashed into his Chidori, disabling the weaker technique, before moving on to hit him in the chest. Sasuke had lost. He'd seen it happen.
Yet, the outcome had changed. He had won. He wasn't supposed to have won.
At the very last moment, Naruto had moved. It was a twitch, the slightest movement of the arm, but it had been enough. Instead of colliding with Naruto's Rasengan and defusing, as it was was supposed to, Sasuke's Chidori had continued onwards.
Directly into, and all the way through, Naruto's chest.
With a wet cough, Naruto splattered blood all over the front of Sasuke's shirt.
Even as Sasuke stared blankly ahead, his eyes unseeing, he could feel Naruto's smile against his chest.
"I guess this is it, huh, teme?" Naruto whispered weakly.
Then he slumped, lifeless, in Sasuke's arms.
For a moment, Sasuke swore his heart had stopped alongside Naruto's.
His eyes burned white-hot, like fire, and as the world went dark he swore he could hear a voice screaming.
Only moments later, a bright white light engulfed Naruto, filling the Valley of the End with an ethereal glow.
The light vanished, and Naruto was gone.
