"Aaaahhh," exclaimed Sasuke as he was slammed into a wall. 'Great the one day I decide to be late to avoid my stupid fan girls. Konoha is invaded.'
"Come out little Uchiha hahaha," snickered the Iwa Shinobi attacking him. It was creepy to say the least, but what was even more concerning was the fact that this woman was one of Iwa's weapons. "I promise I'll only hurt you a little. I like to savor my enemies death."
Sasuke decided that hiding in one spot would be a bad idea. He need to make a run for it. Hopefully he can run into a stronger ally, and together they could eliminate this foe. However fate was not so kind, after leaving his hiding spot several kunai rooted themselves into his backside. The force knocking him to the ground.
As he struggled to keep moving he heard a gleefully chuckling from behind, "Oh this is just wonderful. Soon I shall have the Sharingan. Thank you Konoha scum for unlockin- ghack," came a different voice before abruptly ending.
"Now, now if anyone is to claim the prize held within my prey. It should be me hehehehe," Sasuke struggled to look back before noticing the dead body of a Rogue Shinobi from Suna. As well as his tormentor holding a bloody tanto, "Oooh you do have the Sharingan. That makes you even more of a valuable prey. Now to claim my long sought after prize.
She inched closer drawing out the inevitable. Prolonging Sasuke's suffering even more as he slowly bled out. She torturously removed each and everyone of the kunai embedded in his back. Even pausing to lick the blood from the odd kunai. Causing Sasuke to feel sick to his stomach. Finally after what seemed like an eternity she stopped, but that was only the beginning of the pain she would inflict upon him.
She throw him against a nearby wall cause his wounds to tear slightly more causing pain to erupt throughout his body. He cried out in pain, praying to whatever god would listen that someone would hear him, "Cry as much as you want little boy. No one can hear you. The slaughter of your village is coming to an end and soon so shall you."
As she stated this she produced a container he was familiar with. It preserved the kekkei genkai of the eyes, also known as doujutsu. It prevented the rapid deterioration of the eyes and allowed the doujutsu to last upwards to ten years. An invention developed by his own family in an attempt to take the Byakugan, which now ironically will be used to steal his own newly awakened Sharingan. "I will kill you. No matter what you do to me or how dead you leave me. I'll end you alongside my brother," Sasuke shouted vehemently and with all the courage and defiance he could still muster.
She merely chuckled at him before gouging out his eyes. Making sure that the last thing he saw was her face. "Only a monster can kill a monster," she whispered before torturing him. Cutting him up slowly and savoring his anguish before abandoning him for crows that drew out his torment. The last thing he remembered before darkness claimed him was his own tortured cries and crackling fire of his home burning down around him.
-Two Months Later-
Sasuke suddenly awoke feeling the dull ache from the many wounds that had littered his body. He was surrounded by darkness and silence, minus his pain induced groans. "So this is what death feels like, an endless void alone."
Sasuke then heard a soft, yet masculine chuckle emanating from his right, "You sure do have a grim outlook, boy. Itachi was right about you." Sasuke stiffened at the mention of his brother's name. In Sasuke's near acceptance of death he had nearly forgotten the man he hated most.
"Who are you and how do you know that vile man's name," demanded the now enraged Sasuke.
"I'd be careful of who you make demands of, boy! I hold your wretched life in my hands. I can easily kill as I have saved you," the softness of the man's voice turn cold and cruel as if someone had flipped a switch inside his brain.
"Now, now Tsukuyomi. No need to be so cruel. The child has already been through enough, what given the two Massacres he has lived through." This voice was more feminine, yet child like. It reminded Sasuke of simpler days, before the Uchiha Massacre. It brought peace to him, but it also sparked his repressed curiosity and child like glee. "I am Inari. Queen of Beasts and Protector of Nature, but to mortals like you I am what you refer to as a Goddess."
"I am Tsukuyomi, Lord of the Moon. I saved you from the fires of Konoha and the consuming hordes of the Shinigami's servants. You should be more grateful to your savior," Tsukuyomi's cold tone warmed slightly. Mostly do to Inari's presence, or at least that is what Sasuke assumed to be the case.
"Where am I? Why is it so dark?"
"What do you remember from the attack of Konoha," questioned the child like voice.
Sasuke took a moment to collect his thoughts and sort his jumbled memories. Then it hit him like a pissed of Akamichi clan member. "Konoha was attacked an- and I died."
"Almost died," corrected Tsukuyomi. "I intervened before the crows could finish the job of your would-be murderer."
"She also took your eyes. Stealing your clan's most precious tool," added Inari.
"My Sharingan. It's really gone and now. Now I'm nothing. I've lost everything."
"Not all hope is lost young Uchiha. You've been given an opportunity rarely given. You've arrived at a fork on the Road of Destiny. Now you must choose which path to take." Inari laughed her child like laugh. In the back of Sasuke's mind he felt like he was being dragged into a dangerous game with no way out.
"What do you mean: choose? That's not much to go on you know."
"It's simple brat. You either become a Titan or we give you a new pair of eyes, minus the Sharingan, and you die trying to satisfy your lust for revenge," stated Tsukuyomi with an air of finality. "These are your only two options. Fate will budge no further. Count yourself lucky, not many are capable of causing Fate to budge even that much."
"You speak as if fate is a person. Fate is merely an excuse for the weak to hide behind." Tsukuyomi chuckled at Sasuke's bitterness.
"She'd be sad to hear you say that. Also Fate existed, but some people have a strong enough will to rewrite their future and change their fate. You've been given such a chance now choose child of the Uchiha."
Sasuke pondered the choice that laid bare before him for all, but a second, "Give me the power I need to seek revenge on that bitch." Tsukuyomi sighed, but Sasuke felt as if both deities nodded to each other before he felt a vial pressed to his lips. A few second after the liquid enter his stomach he fell once more into unconsciousness as pain gripped once again.
Wolf: FINALLY! This took longer then it should of, sheesh!
Wolf: So I know some people are wondering what happened with Naruto and Haku after the last chapter. I decided that after dumping a lot of technical information that I should expand lore wise and tell the story from Sasuke's and Hinata's point of view. I also planned on this chapter showing both how Hinata and Sasuke survived their respective encounters during the Fall of Konohagakure (Hidden Leaf), but I thought it'd be better to work on each p.o.v. in seperate chapters aka Hinata and Sasuke will be brought up to Minor God status before I focus on Naruto again as the all reach this status about the same time.
Wolf: But enough blabbing, I hope to have Sasuke's story finish and Hinata's started within a week or two (work willing). So as always Have a nice day.
