What Happened

A/N—hey guys thanks for all the great reviews!

STORY

Sasuke fell backwards then quickly stood up and pointed at me "Don't lie!" he yelled

"I'm not lying. I remember everything now. Ask me anything if you don't believe me"

Tsunade looked at me, she was smart she probably already understood "Do you remember the bet you made with me?"

"The one where if I learned the rasengan in 3 days you would give me your cursed necklace?" she nodded "of 'course I remember it you kept flicking me in the forehead!"

She smiled sadly "what happened?"

"Kabuto found me when the battle was over" she frowned "He asked me if I wanted to live, I couldn't answer so he took it as a yes and told me I would work for Orochimaru. I tried to get away in the beginning, I really did but then it went wrong…"

FLASH BACK

The halls were damp like usual, they smelled like mold. I was being forced to walk down to laboratory 6, I tried to kill the anbu watching me again, and apparently they didn't like to keep cleaning up the mess I was making for them. Kabuto was going to take care of me the ninja kept repeating, I doubt it. Kabuto can't do anything to me, I hold the precious Kyubi. He wouldn't hurt me, not badly anyways. He doesn't want me to call on Kyubi's legendary powers.

I smiled, why did they save me when they knew I would cause all this trouble? I entered laboratory 6 and I fought with them once again as they strapped me down to a cold hard table. My shirt was ripped off like always and they attached a bunch of wires to me to monitor my heart rate. I listened to the comforting sound of my heart on the monitor, my heart still beat after all these months, to me it was proof I would get back to Konoha alive someday.

Kabuto strolled in like he owned the world and started talking to all the ninja around him apparently he wanted them out of the room and if they were needed he would call them.

'What's that crazy bastard up to now' I thought silently 'he scared I might beat him and he doesn't want his underlings to see?' I looked at Kabuto; he had a strange look in his eye as he pulled out a needle.

"Look you" he cleaned a spot on my arm with rubbing alcohol "You've caused a lot of problems for us in the 5 months you've been here all because you remember your friends in Konoha. Orochimaru has agreed with me and we've decided it would be best if you forgot everything…" he stuck the needle in my arm, I instantly felt sick.

"Even if I forget everything, I won't work for you" I hissed, "I've been beaten and burned, pocked and prodded, insulted and made fun of, I'm not going to forget that! So what makes you even imagine I will?"

"Because this is a new drug I made especially for you. It will help suppress the Kyubi so you can't call on it at will and it will make you obey my every command" he grinned "Naruto, you will submit to the sound village and I will personally make sure that when the next great ninja battle comes around you will be on the front line fighting for the sound" then he left the room leaving me tied to the metal bed, the only sounds were my breathing and my heartbeat on the monitor. Then I got hot, I was burning all over as my chakra was sucked out of my body. I felt like screaming but I couldn't let Kabuto know he had won; I won't let him have the satisfaction of hurting me.

And so I burned for days, I felt my body changing. No one came and checked on me and I kept my lips and eyes shut the whole time. Finally after what felt like an eternity the pain subsided I opened my eyes and stared at the roof, I still knew who I was Kabutos drug didn't work, I smiled. I looked towards the door but something was obscuring my view… my… chest…??? I let out a yell for the first time and Kabuto ran in and looked at me and nearly fell over "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME????" I yelled as I thrashed on the table I noticed my pants were loose and were falling off; Kabuto did too and called in a female doctor. She laughed at me, then at Kabuto calling his drug a failure since I still remembered everything.

Then she set to work taking tests and stuff like that, slowly over time though I started to forget things in the fist month I forgot I was ever a boy. Then the next month I started forgetting my friends. After 3 months I no longer remembered my name. After 4 months they could tell me to do something and I would do it without question. Kabuto bragged to the female doctor often how his drug had been a success; I didn't know what he was talking about. And then he ordered me to take drugs everyday, he didn't tell me why but I supposed it was to keep the Kyubi suppressed because he'd been acting up a lot lately… he filled my head with shit telling me I had killed Naruto and that my real name was Nami Umi, eventually I believed everything he was feeding me because I needed an identity. I didn't like not knowing who I was or what I'd done, it was scary and lonesome. I didn't know who my friends were but Kabuto told me he was my friend—I believed him. Kabuto told me I would give my life to Orochimaru—I believed him. Everything he told me—I believed him. Because Kabuto was my friend.

And friends don't lie to each other.

Friends are trustworthy.

Friends are there for you.

Friends tell you things.

Kabuto was my friend through lies.

END FLASHBACK

I finished telling my story, everyone stared. I could guess what they were thinking—She can't be Naruto. Sasuke glowered at me, he must hate me… "You're not Naruto. Sakura felt his heart stop"

I sighed; it was going to be hard to convince them of who I was in this body. I wonder if I'll ever revert to normal… "I'm Naruto. Sasuke you can ask me anything you want and I'll answer it to the best of my ability"

He shook his head and pinched the bridge of his nose, probably trying to think of something that no one would know but us, something that wouldn't have been recorded… "On the day we were assigned our teams… why did all the girls in the class beat you up?" He smiled, must be pretty sure I wouldn't have the right answer…

What happened that day? I thought back and felt my face getting hot at the memory; I remember what happened that day. Sasuke looked nervous, soon he wouldn't be just nervous but embarrassed too… "I was mad all the girls were giving you the attention and not me so I jumped up on the desk in-front of you. The guy behind me stretched and knocked me on top of you… and well… we… kind of…" I could feel my face getting hotter "well we kissed accidently, nothing to be embarrassed about" but I knew my face was still red with embarrassment Sasuke's face was too now. "You believe me now?" I asked my face still red.

"One more question: what is the one enemy I couldn't beat but you could?" his face was back to its normal pale but my face was still beat red.

I grinned "Actually there are 2"

"2?" I looked at me curiously

I continued smiling my previous embarrassment forgotten "Gaara of the Sand is the one you're thinking of right?" He nodded; some of the anbu gasped "The other one is… Orochimaru"

Sasuke looked at me and grinned his cocky grin "You're lying"

"I'm not!" I continued smiling

"Fine whatever you answered my questions but I still won't call you Naruto cause you're not" I sighed he was right in a way, my pervious identity had been Naruto but now my identity was Nami a enemy sound ninja. But I wanted to be Naruto, Sasukes friend again even if all I could be was his friend. In truth the last thing I remembered clearly when I was in Orochimarus lair was Sasuke. I forgot my own name before I forgot him, him crying on the day I 'died'. I won't blame him if he doesn't trust me, I don't trust me.

Tsunade (who had been crying the whole time) ran over to me and hugged me saying she was so sorry and that she prayed I would be able to forgive her. I told her it was fine, everything was fine. It took an hour to calm her down enough for her to speak coherently, but as soon as she was able to she started barking orders to the anbu "Get Naruto a place to stay! Start covering up the mess with Nami Umi! Get some leads on that bastard Orochimaru! Call Jiraiya! Clean up this mess!" the anbu started running around doing everything she told them to do. And I sat there watching finally allowing the tears to fall; I was home with my real friends and family. Everything would work out, I would be fine. Everything would be fine. I repeated over and over again… I was safe from Orochimaru; I cried harder upon realizing this.

Through all this Tsunade held me while Sasuke stood up with a blank expression and walked out of the room. I cried harder, I wanted him to stay, I missed him so much. But it was okay if he left I wouldn't ask for him, he had every right to be mad at me.

SASUKE

He's alive. He's alive. I repeated over and over again. It was just too good to be true. But how else would he know those things? Him defeating Gaara was something only a few people knew of, all high officials who wouldn't tell a soul. And about our kiss? No one knew of that except the kids in our class and I bet most of them have forgotten it by now…

I missed him, I really wanted to stay in that room but I need some air to clear my head. I can't stand him crying either, that's why I always felt scared when I saw Nami cry. It was because in reality it was the dobe crying! I've made him cry…

Naruto I'm so sorry……………
