IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!
Hello! This is my first time on this site and I wanted to say that this is an adopted story from an amazing writer named Illuviar. Illuviar is the original writer of this story and I have gotten permission to adopt this story. I hope you like the way I have written this story.
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto besides the things that have deviated from cannon. If I did own Naruto, then he would not have lived the way he did. Then again, he would not be the boy he is now, so I guess I can settle for this.
Hope you enjoy!
Altered Story
Prologue: Shattered Dream
Battlefield
Fourth Shinobi World War
The Last of the Shinobi In the Elemental Nations
"Tr-Troubles-s-some b-b-blonde. . ." Nara Shikamaru stuttered his last words after taking a blow from the enemy. Of course he would be one of the last to die because of his position as the Allied Shinobi Forces' Chief Strategist and Adviser to the Rokudaime Hokage of Konohagakure.
Uchiha Sasuke did not pay any mind to the other black haired man's passing. He was focused on the visage of a woman a few feet away. Her cherry blossom colored hair was stained with blood. Her name is Haruno Sakura, gakusei of the Godaime, Head Iryo Nin of the Allied Shinobi Forces, and user of the Byakugo no In. She died trying to save her best friend and the woman he loved. The woman he can't bare to look at right now.
He was a fool.
Now that she was gone. When everything was destroyed, he finally admitted it to himself.
He loved her. Uchiha Sasuke, S-Rank nukenin and traitor of Konohagakure was in love with Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, Kyubi Jinchuriki, gakusei of the Gama Sennin, Rokudaime, and Leader and Commander of the Allied Shinobi Forces. Ever since they were twelve. He just did not want the bonds that would slow him down on his path as an avenger.
A deafening roar shook him out of his thoughts and he turned to look at the battle going on before him. The Kyubi, or Kurama as Naruto calls him, was in the middle of a battle with resurrected Uchiha Madara. It was Naruto's last act before dying. Although, Kurama, no matter how powerful, would soon fall prey to the eyes of his ancestor, the Sharingan.
Sasuke looked around the battlefield. Large holes, the ground littered with weapons, smoke from the dozens of jutsus fired about during the war. He and the other two fighting were the only ones left. He charged his katana with lightning and charged towards the battle, aiming for the man who caused him all his, and others, pain. Madara blocked with his own weapon and elemental chakra. This block blew him away towards some debris. When he stood up, he locked eyes with the Kyubi and took this chance.
"Tsukyomi," Sasuke whispered.
He found himself on a familiar corpse filled field. The only difference was that there was a large, nine-tailed fox growling at him from one end of the field.
"Uchiha!" Kurama roared.
"Cut the theatrics, furball," Sasuke snapped.
The Biju huffed with indignation.
"This is your fault!" Kurama rumbled. "You and the blonde brat."
"Indeed," then a look of melancholy passed through his features as he continued. "I need your help."
Naruto would have laughed if she heard him right now. Uchiha Sasuke, asking for help, was unthinkable, but sucking up his pride was important for this.
"My help, little traitor," the Kyubi sniffed in derision.
Sasuke answered with a knowing smirk.
"We are finished. I am almost out of chakra, and you won't be able to resist his eyes much longer."
The fox glared at him, knowing he was right, no matter how much his pride hurt at the admission.
"Damn Uchihas," Kurama grumbled.
Konohagakure
Second Part of the Chunin Exams
Training Ground 44 "The Forest of Death"
Sakura was shivering from the waves of KI rolling from the grass shinobi. All she could do was watch as Naruto and Sasuke unsuccessfully try to beat him, her, whatever it was. It he/she laughed at them when the two made their attacks. He/she was toying with them!
She watched helplessly as Naruto was caught after her moment of monstrous strength that came out of nowhere. And her chakra! It was red! Naruto's features had also turned sharper and more animalistic. Then when Naruto released her own wave of KI, it scared her as much as the grass shinobi's. When did Naruto become so strong?
The grass shinobi came closer to her teammate and slammed her hand to Naruto's stomach.
"Sasuke! Hurry! Do something!" Sakura screamed.
Then, that's when everything changed.
The red chakra from before came out from Naruto, but this time it was a golden, warm color that burst through. It did not have the same evil intent as before, but yet it was the same chakra. It was as if it was purified somehow. The tendril of golden chakra surged around the surprised grass shinobi as it watched the chakra surge towards Sasuke.
A flash of light came and it was so bright that Sakura had to shield her sight from it. A thunderclap echoed throughout Konoha and the surrounding miles beyond.
Then, Sasuke let out a tortured scream like a soul from the depths of hell as its torture went on forever.
Well, how'd you like that? The next chapter will be coming. And as I say in my wattpad account. I do not have an update schedule so the coming up chapters will come randomly. I might be gone for a long time but I won't leave this story unfinished. I'm stubborn that way. No flames please. If you cannot say anything nice, then do not say it. I do really hope you like this.
Peace! Keep Calm and Love Naruto!
