Chapter 10: Files and Pep Talk (a week later)

"You seem to be enjoying yourself, Uchiha."

Sasuke looked over from the ceiling to see one of the Anbu enter the room. With the Dragon mask, it was hard to tell who it was. If he had to guess though, it sounded like one of Naruto's company. Could it be one of his old classmates? He sat up from the cot and stared at the mask to try and find out who it was.

"Hn."

Sasuke felt glare bore into him, but he was trying to figure everything out. Naruto was ANBU captain now. Surly, if he could do so well…no that wasn't being honest. Naruto was always getting stronger. That was the only reason he left, right? He remembered when Tsunade came to be the Hokage, but she was the first woman Hokage and he hadn't expected much. It seemed like she was still the Hokage, but the village looked like it hadn't rebuilt from the Sound and Sand attack yet. How many years has it been? Oh, it had to have been around four years at least. Orochimaru had been killed according to Anko…that crazy bitch. What happened to Itachi though?

"How much do you remember, Uchiha?" Dragon asked, bringing Sasuke from his thoughts and memories.

"Leaving, some of Orochimaru's lessons and experiments. When I attacked that night along with the reason why I did so."

"And what would that be?" Neji had a firm idea that he attacked to get rid of his old village…or for Naruto. If that was the case, there would be no saving Uchiha Sasuke…at least from him.

"Why would I tell you?"

In a second, Dragon was in his face. Sasuke narrowed his eyes but didn't flinch. He'd seen much more intimidating than this person.

"I'm ANBU Uchiha and one of the few who is allowed to torture you for yourinformation."

"There is a reason I don't trust ANBU. If your village wants critical information, you will have to bring one of my past team or the Hokage herself."

"I doubt that would happen."

Sasuke shrugged, "I guess Konoha will be turned to rubble once again."

Almost immediately, Sasuke winced as he saw a flash of Konoha after the Sand and Sound attack before another flash of Konoha much worse off and Naruto fighting someone in Akatsuki robes. Once it was over, he closed his eyes to get another headache in the form of an opening door. An ANBU with a Wolf mask walked in.

"Dragon, what are you doing here?"

Neji watched where Sasuke laid, head against the wall in seemingly pain before turning to his superior officer.

"Just getting more facts. She's like a sister to most of us," he answered in a serious tone.

"She's everyone's family, Dragon. Well, anyone who sees the real her anyway. Aside from that, the heiress needs you."

Sasuke watched as Dragon bowed out of the room and tried to find out what heiresses there were. Last he checked there were Hana, Kiba's sister; Hinata, and Ino. Tenten was a daughter of a weapons maker so there was no chance for her. Sakura is about the same, coming from a civilian family. So Dragon had a duty to one of the three heiresses? His train of thought was interrupted when Wolf sat down and flipped open a file.

"I hope you know your record isn't a good one, Uchiha. Otherwise, you're in for a major disappointment." Sasuke stayed silent, prompting the ANBU to go on.

"On file, it seems like it all started when you left Konoha and fought your teammates. First, you knocked Sakura Haruno out when you were confronted by her when she found you leaving. Then, you drew your other teammate into battle, in which you almost took his life. From there it goes on to your other many 'achievements' up until now.

"Anyone who knew Naruto, however, knows a different story. Or at least, that's what he's been telling everyone since you left. He had this theory that the curse mark was the reason why you acted so different. But if that were the case, Anko would not be as sane as she is…granted the person she was to begin with. Although, Fox has come up with another theory that seems to cover you from being executed; granted, I don't know why she attempts it.

"She claims that the cursed mark that you had been given and the one Anko had were different. Something about Heaven and Hell seals that effect the victims in different ways. Of course, with Orochimaru dead and his research missing, there' not much to prove or disprove it other than the visual testimony of Anko Mitarashi and Kakashi Hatake, but that's boring detail and I'll just get to the point shall I? "

"You have some of your memory missing, Naruto is gone, Sakura hates you to some extent, Kakashi is no longer teaching, Fox is head of ANBU and feels some sort of sympathy for you, and the Godaime has expressly given power to ANBU to kill you if you make a wrong move," Wolf closed the file and turned to an shocked Uchiha and glared.

"Even if the Council wants you released for being a name and bloodline, it means Naruto was more a man than you. You may not remember now, but he had a lot more to deal with than a massacred family. Even more so now that he's had more changes dealt him in the past months. Uzumaki may have been the dead last when you Rookie 9 were in the Academy, but there's a huge difference from then and now."
