I do not own Naruto
Naruto lay in the forest just outside of the village holding Sasuke's scratched headband above his head. The darkness of the night made it hard to see the headband before him, but Sasuke would know this headband no matter what. He sighed as he allowed it to fall to his chest so that he could see the sky. The clouds were covering the stars so he could only see darkness before him.
"You know Sasuke," he said quietly. "Sometimes I wonder what would happen if we had switched places. What would happen if I had been the one to go and you had been the one to stay?" He paused as if he was waiting for an answer, but when none came he continued. "It would probably be better for everyone. The Akatsuki wouldn't be attacking us. Orochimaru wouldn't be trying to take your body. You would still be home. Konoha wouldn't be plagued with a demon." He stopped again. It was kind of depressing counting all the things that would have been different. He even had more things that he could name off, but there was no point since he had been the one to stay and Sasuke had been the one to go.
As he watched the sky he saw a hole in the clouds just as a shooting star shot across the sky. He had once overheard that if you wish upon a star than your wish will come true. Naruto closed his eyes and wished as hard as he possibly could. "I wish that I had been the one to leave Konoha and he had been the one to stay."
This is just the prologue. I promise that the rest of the chapters will be longer than this one.
Thank you for reading. If you have any questions, comments, or requests, please message me and I will make sure to read them all. Flames are accepted and used to improve my stories.
I have the next chapter written, but I didn't want to post everything at once, so I will post it in a week unless I get 5 comments before then.
