Meant to Be?

Summary: If you truly love something let it go, if it was meant to be it will come back to you. Pssh, that is a lie. It never comes back. Is this always true?

Disclaimer: I own a Naruto manga. Not Naruto though. Sasuke would disembowel me, shish kabob me serve, dismember me, haul out my kidneys, pull my brain out with tongs, and much much more.

Warning: I wouldn't read this if you loath indulge in peculiar writing. Beware of character ooc! You will learn why a bit later.

Note: Reviews are nice. Flames are fine to. Constructive criticism I give you a golden cookie and the good guy pose!

Chapter 2: Surprise!

Unh. I rub my eyes. Leaving them closed I sit up and yawn. Scratch the back; stretch the arms, the regular morning regimen. I yawn. Feels like I've been through a long journey. Like I was passing through space and time. Hmph. Wonder what that feels like.

I had an insane dream last night. Met Shinigami and crap like that. I stand up to find an unfamiliar wooden floor beneath me. I look down. It is not the stone cold floor of Orochimaru's lair, but the golden honey wood floors of the Uchiha Compound. Much nicer and cleaner. My ancestors had good taste, except the fact they overlooked some mental people in the clan!

I scratch my head in confusion, but am too tired to caring. Dragging my tired body to the bathroom was the biggest feat I've ever accomplished in the wee hours of the morning. I feel an alien pressure around my chest but ignore it. I might have a cold. Orochimaru does enjoy drugging me up. Seriously, the amount of shit he put in me is enough for a whole country. Of course they were only the more safe ones, but still, knowing him, I wouldn't like him as my pharmacist.

I don't think I like the mornings anymore. I feel crappy, like Orochimaru stuffed me with injections and drugs. I stare at my reflection, peering closely at my own eyes. I look the same, but I feel so different. Hey! When did I get such girly eyelashes? Only Itachi has eyes like that!

"Come on! Do it! Do it!" a carrot colored hair girl chants.

"Konohamaru-chan, sniff, please, sniff, do it, sniff. It, sniff, is, the, sniff, dare," a boy with brown hair and a case of a chronic runny nose says rubbing his runny nose. (1)

"If it will help me become Hokage!" Konohamaru agrees. He waves his hand as a sign of 'it's all right', and creeps into the Uchiha Compound. The trio silently makes there way to the opposite side of the compound tip toeing all the way.

"Udon quit sniffing!" Konohamaru snaps in a whisper putting a finger to his lip in a sign of silence.

"Okay, sniff," Udon answers nodding and still sniffing.

"Moegi, go ahead, you are lighter!" Konohamaru says to the carrot haired girl. She nods and tip toes an inch forward stepping on a squeaky board. The trio turns around the corner.

"I have to, sniff, use the, sniff, bathroom, sniff," Udon complains.

"Hurry!" Konohamaru whispers. He points to a door crudely labeled bathroom. He had put the sign up there on his last expedition in the Uchiha Compound. It was a place worthy of exploration and adventure. Plus maybe they would get to see ghosts!

Udon sneaks over to the bathroom and quickly snaps himself shut in it. A blood-curdling scream fills the tense air. The hairs on Moegi and Konohamaru's necks stand up. They stiffen and turn their heads to face the bathroom door.

Udon comes bursts out the slamming the bathroom door as hard as he can. He sprints down the hall dragging Moegi and Konohamaru with him. They sprint out the main entrance and outside the Uchiha Compound's gates. Panting Udon explains.

"There, sniff, sniff, pant, pant, was a sniff, pant, dead, sniff, ghost! Uchiha, sniff, Mikoto was, pant, sniff, pant, pant, in the bathroom I, sniff, sniff, sniff, pant, swear!" Udon half pants half sniffs out. (2)

I sigh, crazy children. A young boy with disgusting snot hanging from his nose had just walked in on me while I was using the bathroom.

After that sniffy boy left I made a note worthy discovery. I begin to take off my clothes. I sigh again and step into the shower. I knew my hair was long now and I hated it. When I step out of the shower and change into my clothes I feel an alien pressure around my chest. I look down to fix it, but I couldn't because my breasts got in the way.

Breasts. I am supposedly a guy. I look down again and see my male organs are all gone, and replaced by the female ones. (3

Drawing in deep breaths I try not to hyperventilate. But I do and I faint. So much for having more potential than Itachi. My poor virgin eyes!

3 hours later.

Waking up refreshed and slightly better I check down to see if becoming a girl was a dream. It wasn't. I still was very disturbed, its not every morning you find out you had a sex change literally over night.

I rub the pulsing bump on my head and wince as I had just scraped it with my new elongated nails. Being a girl doesn't have its perks anymore. Not that I ever wanted to be one. I carefully look down again and sigh. I pinch myself. It doesn't work.

So this is what Shinigami meant. Still, I, I, can't live being a girl. The worst part is, I look like my mother. Exactly like her. It hurts to look in the mirror, I don't see myself but I see Uchiha Mikoto.

When I started to calm down and I decide going to a bar would be best for me. Yeah that's it. But I don't have any clothes. I run to my room. There are no clothes for a girl there, let alone my size, all my clothes are very tight around those areas.

I go to my mom's clothing. Pssh, this is old lady wear. I reach the bottom drawer in desperation, but close it, because I won't mention it.

Finally I remember my cousin Akemi was a girl. Maybe I can find clothes from her. (4)

I dash across the compound quickly to her house. I scavenge through her drawers and find a blue loose fitting shinobi wear. I smirk at the thought of cross-dressing, but it really isn't. It fits, and I don't look too girly. I also have to make a name for myself. I think I'm going to keep Akemi, it means bright and beautiful. That'll do.

I step outside of the compound. The smells, noises, and sights of Konoha flood into me. I take deep breaths and attempt to absorb it all. I missed it here so much. I amble slowly towards the nearest bar.

I situate myself at a bar stool and wait to be served. An old man, the bartender, comes up and says, "What can I do for you?" like he is talking to a little kid.

"First you can take my order," I snap at him. I didn't mean to rude. Maybe I did.

"Okay, what would you like?" he asks nervously.

"I would like sake," I answer looking him intensely in the eye.

"Okay," he says unsurely getting out a bottle of sake. He put it in front of me. And I stare at it for a minute. It is a tad small.

"Are you sure this is what you want?" he asks. An icy glare shuts the man up. If I were in my old body no one would question my authority at all.

Instead of pouring the sake into a smaller cup I chug the bottle. My insides relax and I feel a little calmer. I order the bartender to give me another one.

After chugging five he refuses to give me any more. I glare at him, but my instincts are obviously hazy and I feel a bit dizzy.

"I NEED SAKE!" I bellow at him. He looks frightened and tells a man at the bar to help me home. The man has white hair and strange red lines going down the sides of his face. He is weird; I think he is one of the Legendary Sannin, Jiraiya toad hermit.

He guides me and is having a fit of perverted little giggles. I send a nasty glare at him and he stops. Spins me to face him and looks at me. Putting a questioning finger on his chin he hums an annoying tune.

"You know, I wasn't sure about this before but you are the legacy of Uchiha Mikoto," he says, staring at me a little to closely. His beady little eyes are focused on my face.

I nod. "Mnhmm," I say not really paying attention to his words.

"Who are you?" he asks, more like demands to know.

"I don't feel comfortable telling you," is my only answer. I cross my arms as a way of letting him know this conversation is over. He stares at me quizzically.

"Tomorrow morning go to the Hokage's Tower at noon," he directs giving me a slip of paper. I didn't realize it but we already are at the Uchiha Compound. I nod slowly in my drunken stupor.

"You don't have the authority to tell me that," I retort.

"Just do it. People who haven't been seen must. Besides what's the worst that can happen?"

I thank him half-heartedly and head inside. What a freak. I sense the chakra signatures of the kids earlier. I didn't care or want to deal with them so I headed to room.

I hear a slight banging noise coming from it and hurried my pace. Running I barged into the room to see the source of the commotion.

I look around but see nothing. Then out of the corner of my eye a small hellish creature is banging itself against my desk. It is about eight inches tall and has a wingspan of eight inches. It is a blue gray color, and has strange pointed ears that are tipped in blood red. Creepy.

I can feel myself losing it. Never drink so much sake. I drop to the sofa in my room and rub my temples. I can hear the strange creature saying, "Failed it. Failed it. Failed it." (5)

I grab it by one of the wings and poke it. It stares at me with big orange eyes and it mouth comes to form a toothy grin. I recoil at the disgusting teeth and odor coming from its mouth.

"HI! My name is Ryota! I am a messenger of Shinigami. I have a message for you! Read it once, and teak good notice, because before you know it is will disappear!" the demon says grinning with rows of its gross teeth. (6)

I stare at it incredulously. It stares back and blinks its eyelids vertically. I recoil in shock and disgust. Out of all the bizarre situations I have been in I think this is the strangest.

"Where's the message?" I ask impatience is showing in my voice. The demon is oblivious to it all! I hate dealing with stupid creatures. I wanted that demon out of my life now.

He holds up a scroll and says exuberantly, "HERE IT IS! Yes I didn't fail my first mission!"

Then he gives a short wave and disappears in a poof of red smoke. I cough, and pick of the scroll.

I open it slowly and read:

"Uchiha Sasuke,

You have thirty days to win the heart of Uzumaki Naruto. Excuse the pun.

You will not be able to use any transformation jutsu. You will have to deal with being a female.

You will go to Hell if you fail.

You will be able to choose what you want if you succeed.

You will only be able to tell those of this ordeal if they guess your true identity

You will have to find out Naruto's sexual preference. It is true love not fraternal, or sisterly love.

The messenger I sent will be popping in from time to time.

Do remember he will not recognize you, for you are not in the same body.

Note that you might get a surprise in this month.

I bid you good luck.

Shinigami."

So cliché. I put the scroll on the desk. Its corners begin to curl up and blacken. For no apparent reason it explodes leaving me with a black mess, and dirty clothes. I step out of my dirty clothes and into a silk robe, a white silk robe.

I settle on the sofa and cuddle a pillow. Being a female has made me go soft. I just hope I don't become Karin. She was a real weirdo. Ugh. I don't know why I recruited her. Even Suigetsu was better than her. Not much though. But Karin was special so I guess it wasn't that bad. They are both pretty creepy though. Not as bad as Juugo and his split personalities though.

Or Sakura! Maybe not, she is super strong now. Ino, bingo! I don't want to be like her. I shudder at just the thought of her. I haven't seen her yet, but she was pretty horrendous back than. They may be strong but women. Women are just womeny! Its not wonder I was gay.

I don't want to be like Hinata either. Its not that I don't like her, she is just so quiet and doesn't talk at all! I don't think too much about her actually.

Too tired and too drunk to move I drift to sleep on the sofa. Maybe being a girl isn't so bad. Probably not.

1. Udon is a very sniffy kid isn't he?

2. Got a little carried away with the pants and sniffs. Sorry!

3. IS that a little weird?

4. Akemi – bright and beautiful perfect for an Uchiha

5. I didn't mean to be so Harry Potteresque!

6. Ryota splendidly stout

Note: Sasuke may seem ooc, because it is his soul and stuff in a female body. Males are different than females, so his character will be the same, except he will have female instincts, and maybe talk more; it's a girl thing! And it is scientifically proven. Most girls are more articulate and talk more! Still want to know an idea for death. I was thinking really emo-like, or a stupid accident. But I'm not quite sure the kind of impact I am looking for. Feel free to leave an idea via a review! Any ideas for that matter! I need ideas, because it's my story, and I want your input!

Neither Sasuke or Naruto will be too ukeish. Even if Sasuke is a girl, momentarily, he won't be as girly as some other girls.

Oh, yeah Sasuke normally wouldn't get drunk but being a woman his alcohol tolerance has decreased slightly.

Preview: Tsunade looks closely at me. Peering with her large amber eyes, she asks, "Uchiha Sasuke, why are you a woman?"
