Summary: In this story Sasuke does not leave the village since I don't know how to explain him coming back and I'm not that far into the anime or manga to know how he really does come back. Also Itachi's story is going to be different since I don't really know his entire story and I decided to make my own.

Disclaimer: I do not nor have I ever owned Naruto. The only characters that are mine are Nakushita, some of the experiment victims, and Ikkaku Sennin.

Nakushita and Sasuke Uchiha

(Normal POV)

A young woman who appeared to be 19 years of age with long black hair and bright green eyes was escorted back to her room after another long day of testing, where she had been repeatedly drugged, shocked, beaten, touched, and prodded. Her feline appearance, reflexes, and senses were a result of these testings.

Before she waked into her room she turned to the man she thought of as Wrinkles since no one's name was ever said and asked him "Why do they call me Nakushita?" She had always wanted to know, because she didn't know her real name since she never met her parents and all the testers referred to her as Nakushita, which meant "lost one."

She didn't understand, she knew where she was, she wasnt lost.

Wrinkles turned to her with a smile on his face and said, "It's so you will know that you can never be found."

He then slammed the door and because there wasnt any windows or light in her room, she was thrown into complete darkness.

On the border line of a small village named the Leaf and a neighboring village, the same woman slept. She would have appeared average if it wasnt for the black cat ears sitting upon her head and the equally as black tail wrapped around her waist. She had long black hair, wore a black sleeveless top, fingerless gloves, and a skirt that was split along the sides and was outlined in red at the bottom with white leggings underneath and a red hilted sword strapped to her waist. Her sleep hid her bright green eyes from sight. The girl had her hand fisted around her sword's hilt and was repeatedly clenching and unclenching it. To anyone who could have seen her they would notice nothing out of the ordinary since she was wearing a hood to cover her ears. But, no one would notice her since she had chosen a low tree branch to nap on while she waited.

Nakushita jumped up from where she had been siting in her room, which was completely empty except for the thin blanket she had wrapped around herself.

She could hear people fighting on the other side of the door and wondered what was going on.

When she could no longer hear anything, Nakushita began to panic. Because of all the tests and experiments operated on her, Nakushita's senses were amplified: sight, sound, smell, even taste and touch. So when she could no longer even hear the heart beats of the people outside he room, she knew that something was happening; whether good or bad, she didn't know yet.

When the door to her room opened and she saw the silhouette of a man with piercing red eyes, she immediately knew that this man would never hurt her and she would be safe with him.

Along with the other five senses, Nakushita also gained a sixth sense that allowed her to see the auras of others. She could see the intentions and emotions in the colors surrounding them, letting her know who she could trust. She couldn't control it however, so the colors were often jumbled and she couldn't read them correctly. But when she looked into the man's eyes she saw hardships, pain, and loss in perfect clarity for the first time.

This is it, Nakushita thought, I'm getting out of here. She knew that she could trust this man and she would follow him anywhere.

The man seemed to know what she was thinking, because he nodded and then led her through fallen bodies and blood splattered walls, up to the world outside and away from her past.

"What's your name?" The man asked when they were above ground.

"I don't know," Nakushita replied. "The men had called me Nakushita and I have never heard any other name spoken in that place." Nakushita looked over at the man and tilted her head in curiosity. "Do you have a name?"

The man glanced down with a bland expression, but Nakushita could sense sympathy, sorrow, and...determination? "Yes, my name is -"

/Crack/

(Nakushita's POV)

/Crack/

My eyes snapped open and I straightened up from my position against the tree I had used as a sleeping area. I could hear ninja moving swiftly through the trees about a mile away and they were heading in this direction. I stayed where I was, waiting to see if they would stop and realize that I was here. When they just going in the branches above me I relaxed, that is until I caught a familiar scent among the group.

I jumped up, threw my pack on, and chased after the scent; my hood being flown off in my rush to catch up. The person who belonged to this scent is the whole reason that I'm heading to the Leaf Village, though I didn't expect to run into him on my way there. He wanted to seek this person out, because there was something that he wanted to tell them. He's gone now because of this same person, so I have taken it upon myself to tell them in his place. When they were just a few feet ahead of me I called out to the raven haired man leading the group.

"Sasuke Uchiha!"

Well there's the first chapter, which I've technically had for a while now, I just couldn't get on a computer for a while. Anyway please R&R and ask questions. This might take me a while and I might change the rating later on depending on how the rest of the story goes.
