Another Thursday, another chapter of this fic… I tried working on the paragraphs more this time, so I hope it'll be easier to read,

Enjoy, and read the Notes below

Chapter 10: The Shinobi with no Memories

"What was that thing all about?" Reilla asked, "It was him, wasn't it?" Ino finally said, she was crying, but her tune was clear, hope mixed with joy.

 "I think so; do you want to go talk with him?" Hinata asked, Ino nodded, her eyes were lit with hope.

 "Whoever that guy is, Ino really has something for him" Reilla thought to herself.

"Don't play this game anymore, you have to go now to talk with those girls, before they come for your head" Tskubakaru demanded.

 "What do you mean game? I never met those girls before, I just thought the blonde one looked familiar, that's all" Tollas said, an expression of confusion on his face. "Stop that, I know who you are, now that I saw those girls I'm sure, even though you're supposed to be dead, you're an Uchiha, Uchiha Sasuke"

Sasuke looked at him with a blank face "what the hell are you talking about? A Chiwawa? What the hell is that?"

 "don't play the dumbass with me, those leaf's are probably on their way back here, I might be able to beat the leafs alone, I think, but I stand no chance against that cloud girl, but with your Sharingan, we could maybe stand a chance to live"  Tskubakaru said, getting killed because of an Uchiha's inability to admit failure wasn't on his plans for life, this time he was going to act on his own, not just because someone told him to, he made up a complete battle plan, very risky, but it would have to do as plan B, Plan A was to give them the Uchiha and hope they won't mind him.

 After all, there was no reason to suspect he was part of the Akatsuki, he wasn't a leader or anything, even the nine tails kid won't recognize him, he was always sitting with a book or a newspaper, torture and integration weren't his specialties. The three girls entered again,

"Sasuke…" the blond chunin cried "it's really you… where have you been"

the dark haired guy was pretty confused, first Tskubakaru and now this girl, Tollas had no connection with shinobies other than selling ramen, he grew up at a nearby village, his parents were farmers, he went to work at the city because of the drought, Tollas was just a victim here, being mistaken for that Sasuke.

"Are you sure it's him?" Reilla asked, Hinata nodded, "good, you'll deal with his attitude problem later, for now, he's just one of my personal belongings" she moved behind him, a soft touch on his neck was enough to bring him down

"Just be grateful I'm not spending my time on you" she looked at Tskubakaru, his guess was right, she was above him in every aspect, he couldn't stand a minute against her. "So, what are we doing with him? Should we carry him along or what?' Reilla asked, she didn't know what kind of mission the two were assigned to, but she believed they would dump it soon and bring Sasuke back to the leaf.

"What about that eagle, can it take us back to the leaf?" Hinata asked.

 "I can try, he's still shocked from what your husband has done to him, I might be able to persuade him to help, but it'll still take about four days to get back to the leaf" Reilla said, she was getting ready to summon the bird again, another night of flying on his back, it was tiring, even for her, but from what Naruto and Hinata told her, Sasuke was one of Naruto's teammates which supposedly died trying to avenge his clan, Hinata also reviled to her that Naruto still lit a memory candle for him each day on his way to work..

"I'm ready, lets get back to the leaf" she said "Naruto, this is for you" Reilla completed the sentence in her heart.

***************************and back at the leaf***********************

"Give it up, Naruto, this game will end the same way it always ends" Shikamaru said, "no way! I'll win this one, I can't look this bad in front of Karen" Naruto replied, his daughter was watching the game, and he wanted her to at least one memory of her father winning.

 "Oh lord, you're haven't let her out of your sight even since Hinata left, leave her at Neji's place or some other Hyuga and let's go drink something" Shino was getting mad, he wasn't good around children, he loved being with them, but the problem was his bugs, most kids wouldn't even come close to a fly, let alone millions of chackra eating bugs, As a kid, the bugs weren't fully grown, so he could hang out with his friends and it didn't really matter to anyone.

 "Can't do it, Neji is out on some mission, Hinata's sister is grading some tests for the academy, and the rest of the Hyuga pretty much hate me" Naruto explained.

 "And what about Sakura? I think she has an easy day tomorrow, she won't mind looking after Karen" Lee asked, Naruto laughed, "Sakura's place? Lee, you got to start paying attention next time you leave her apartment next time you take her out, that place is a mess, I can't find myself in there, if I leave Karen there she'll be twenty the next time I see her"

Konhamaru ran to them, he was screaming something, it had to be something really special in order to get him out of his bed in this hour, Konhamaru enjoyed long naps and even longer nights, he could sleep for a whole day if he ever got the chance. "Hinata, Ino, the cloud girl... they are all back, and they got someone inside they hospital, Hinata told me to get you and Sakura come fast"

 "What can be so urgent that will get them back so fast?" he thought to himself "well, you heard him, gotta go, look over Karen, don't lose her!" he said to Shikamaru, Lee and Shino.

 he ran off to the hospital, he met Kakashi on the way, "you know what is it?" he asked Naruto, "no idea, but it doesn't sound like one of the girls are hurt" he responded, Konhamaru said that Hinata told him to call for both him and Sakura, which meant she was fine, Konhamaru also said they got someone in, he didn't mention a name, so it was possible he didn't know who was hospitalized.

Hinata was waiting outside "what happened?" Naruto asked, he saw his wife's look, he could tell the news were bad and mostly hard to tell.

 "He's alive; we met him a few days ago, but he doesn't know anything" she said, tears started flowing from her eyes, "not dead? What can that mean? Who are you talking about?" Kakashi asked, "you should go inside and see for yourself, where's Karen?" she responded, it was a sign something serious was going on, Karen was usually the first thing she asked about.

 "I left her with Shino, Shikamaru and Lee, they can handle her for an hour or so" Naruto answered, as they walked into the room they both gapped in surprise, Ino and Sakura were trying to talk with some guy, but he just tried to keep a distance from them he had a dark hair and small eyes, they knew him well, Sasuke.

**********************and we move to Tollas\Sasuke point of view***********

NOTE: I will be using 1st person narrator this chapter, don't be mistaken, its Tollas talking, not Naruto or anyone else.

"Stop that, leave me alone! Let me out!" I tried to scream, I was held hostage in some room, 2 girls were trying to talk to me, one had a blonde hair and one had pink hair, they were both crying.

"don't' come any closer, just let me go" I was crying, non of this was supposed to happen to me, I should have never taken the job at that ramen stand, I should stayed with my family and help with the crops. I looked around; there were now two other guys in the room, a masked one at his 50's and a blonde guy at my own age or so.

"I'll do anything, don't hurt me" I tried to beg, I still had the strange dream about riding a giant eagle, it had to be a dream, there was no way it could have been real, that would be just crazy, even for this situation.

The two men just looked at me, both so scary, they probably hid weapons all over their bodies, all the shinobies were monsters, they were tools of death and war, what ever they want with me, and it must be bad. "Please Sasuke, stop this, talk to me" the girl with the blonde pony hair said over and over.

"I'm not him; you've got this all wrong!" I tried to explain it to them, but they just didn't listen to me, stupid ninjas, why couldn't they see who I am? I was just Tollas, a simple man with no connection to politics or anything important, just a farmer who took a job at that ramen stand just so he could send money back home.

 Home – my family, where I always lived, where I grew up, the place I haven't left before. The masked guy talked "let me try something"; the girls took a step back and looked at him, the blonde spiked hair guy just stood by the door. "Look into my eye" the masked guy told me, I slowly turned my head to him, his eye was totally red and had three black pupils in it, a hard pain struck me.

 "Stop it!!!" I tried to scream but the pain was just too much, I felt my head touching the floor, "what did you do to him? Why did you show him the sharingan" the pink haired girl cried and shouted

"I didn't do anything to him, just wanted to see if he recognizes it" the masked one said, "Sharingan?, what the hell is that" I thought to myself, the pain has stopped, the other guy was whispering something to himself "I think I have an idea, let me try" he said, they all looked at him strangely, he had the looks of a wild animal, he eyes sparkled like a the eyes a beast getting ready to kill, I was ready to submit myself to the masked guy, I'd do anything to get away from the blonde guy, he was frightening, even in comparison to the others.

"What are you planning to do with me?" I asked, whatever he planned, it had to be worse than anything I can imagine, I was sure of that.

 "It might be a little dangerous, but it should work" he said, his hand started glowing; he touched my forehead with his hand, and pushed. My head started to burn, it felt like it was on fire, the pain was moving inside, I screamed for help, the blonde guy was trying to kill me! I blinked

I blinked, my eyes tried to adapt to a new situation, the air was cold and hot at the same time, the walls were all gone, only two people were now in there besides me, one was the blonde guy, he was still scary, but in a different way now, the other one was on a new level.

The other guy wasn't in the room earlier, I couldn't see his face, but I could feel he wasn't human, he was a true monster, I felt his red eyes gaze upon me as he was about to bite and tear me apart. "What now? I did what you suggested, but where are we?" the blonde guy asked. Where were we? It bothered me as well, it felt dark and confusing, but still familiar, it was as if I could walk all around the place blindfolded, I even could walk upside down or in mid-air if I wanted, I felt like I could make the room shake just by touching the ground, it was strange but reassuring, I was in control.

"listen kid, we're are going to read his mind, but since you don't know anything about it, and I'm not in the mood to teach you how to, we'll use a different method" the dark voice said, even though I was controlling that place, the voice made me shake, I felt like a rabbit being held by a cat.

"What kind of method are you talking about? Can you even really read someone's mind?" the blonde guy said, his voice was shaking, I could hear his knees trembling as well.

"I can do more things than you human could ever dream of, well, I could do them once, but now I'm stuck with you... Never mind that, just tell Kakashi to hit him and concentrate on the background, you'll see images of pain, you'll recognize most of them from your life, wait until you see some differences in them, it could help us narrow the search down" the dark voice was so calm, like he visited this place over a million times, I wanted to crush him, I felt the other guys bones in my hand, but the dark voice just seemed unreachable to me.

 "Kakashi, hit Sasuke on the head, will ya?" I heard the blonde guy speaking, it had a strange feeling attached to it, I looked around, I was both in the room with the girls and the masked Kakashi, but also in the strange room with the blonde guy and the dark voice, I felt the hit in both places, the strange room started to flicker, 1000's of images flashed there in an instant, hits, falls, blows, loneliness, loss, stings, betrayal, more feelings than what I could name, some of them flashed only once, some flashed  a few times and some appeared more times than I could count.

"I think I have it… am I right?" the blonde guy breathed heavily, I felt his slightest movements like they were mine "I really can't tell what you're talking about, we are separated here, you know" the dark voice was still in ease, if I could crush the blonde guy, then the voice could crush me even faster, he could squeeze my life away without a second thought about it.

 "Kakashi, show him the sharingan again, I'm getting to the route of this thing" the blonde guy said, I could hear pain in his voice, "are you o.k.? What are you doing to him, why do you sound so weak? What have you done to him?" I heard one of the girls say, maybe it was both of them. The masked guy, Kakashi or whatever his name was, held my head up, he opened his eye again, this time the pain was hundred times stronger, "I'm getting in there, I can't let you hurt him like this!" one of the girls said.

-------Chapter ten - The Shinobi with no Memories – End----

Shout outs! (Still important parts below!)

Aleh: yeah, I get that a lot; I think this chapter was much better, don't you?

Hattuteline: I'm really glad to see another one of your reviews, they help a lot!

A: The Reilla storyline isn't that relative to the story, it comes between the two main parts of the story, I wrote it after watching Cinderella boy and reading a few "Naruto turns to a girl\ has a twin sister" fics, besides, Reilla will have a comeback in the sequal.

B: I think this chapter brought in the plot, didn't it? If not, then please explain what you meant by 'firmer goals', because I didn't really understand it.

C: Grammar is a bitch, period! I really need a beta reader, so if you're in for the job, just e-mail me and say so.

D: I knew and warned you that the fight won't be a masterpiece of writing, It's was just a fight between giants, but I can write down a list of jutsus used, if you want

Jutsu list:

Chidori – you know it from the manga.

Kwarami no jutsu – the wood switching thing, I think it's also called "replacement technique"

Rasengan – you know it from the manga.

Tornado spear no jutsu – think of it as a kaiten spin bottled inside a chidori, or a reverse chackra dispelling rasengan, it forces chackra out and counters any jutsu.

Weapon storm no jutsu – like Ten Ten's spinning weapons' scrolls, just on a much larger scale

Kakashi's divine mask – you sure picked up a good name for this one! It's a seal (like tsunda genesis seal) that reproduces the mask Kakashi wears, it's also a sign for insanity and Kakashi Bashing

Kage Bunshin no jutsu – you know it from the manga

Eagle summoning – It's a contract to summon eagles, not very original, but who cares?

Inner\Celestial gates – you know it from the manga.

Inner\Celestial gates (clone version) – the clones use the chackra that gives them a body to gain a strength boost and then disappear

Demonic Possession Explosion no jutsu – the same Jutsu Naruto used on Kabuto in the earlier episodes of this fic, it's forcing the Kyubi chackra into another and have his body go boom from it.

Demonic Possession no jutsu – the same jutsu Naruto used on Gamabunta earlier in this story, a less violent way of forcing the nine tails chackra into a body, it's like forcing the kyubi to take over the body, it's still very dangerous.

Lotus clone double throw strike no jutsu – a complicated form of clone throw (the one Naruto used on Gaara in the manga), Naruto creates shadow clones, they do the lotus and throw him spinning on the enemy with great speed, then Naruto creates a normal clone a few feet before him, the spinning motion makes it hard to see that there's a clone, so even if the victim avoids the clone, Naruto still gets to deliver the blow by surprise.

If you want, I can write a flashback concerning this fight and publish it later.

E: you probably did have some point in talking about the war theme, but we both lost it… other village will appear throughout the story, but it will be mainly the leaf.

Personal Ranting: life's a bitch, school's a killer. Next week, I'll be going on a 5 day GADNA (Gdodey Noar' – which roughly translates into teenage troops) it's like a 'teaser' for the army = bad conditions, working along with people I've never met before, and  not showering for five days… so, the next chapter will come out a bit late, somewhere at Friday, and will be poorly edited.

But heck, what does anything matter when you're going to scar yourself physically, mentally and socially by being trapped in a military camp with your classmates for almost a whole week? 

Anyway, reviews, flames, criticism or any other form of messages are welcomed!
