In case anyone's confused about Kakashi's situation here, I'll explain. When Naruto used his Unbloodline to cancel out Sasuke's sharingan at Wave, Kakashi was in the affected area so he was an unintentional victim of it. Normally he would be able to reuse any kekkei genkai of his now that he's out of Naruto's reach. However, the sharingan is not naturally his and it's clear in canon he cannot turn his eye off. Therefore it's only logical that he cannot turn it back on himself either. The Oto nin know this and for now that's a good enough revenge for Kushina.

Ch. 35 Sasuke

Sasuke had to spend a full day in the company of every medic nin Konoha had to offer. Only now did the council members wish they had taken Tsunade's request for specific medic nin training seriously. But without that and her, they had to settle for people who were half as good as her at best. He was most livid when they tried to collect sperm, saying it was part of the physical, and he adamantly resisted it. So he had to be sedated for them to get anything from him.

The next day he was summoned to the council room to attend a meeting with both councils and the hokage. Even Kakashi was there too. 'Maybe they'll be able to get me my sharingan back. Then I can go kill Itachi and whoever took it from me in the first place.'

"Please be seated Sasuke Uchiha." Sarutobi told the genin once he and the others arrived.

Sasuke did, and he soon got a bad feeling. This was the first time he was in the council's presence and no one smiled at him. Generally he didn't get that from the shinobi side, but there had always been several on the civilian side that looked pleased he was present. But now, there was no one who looked like they felt wiping his ass was a privilege.

"Sasuke Uchiha, our best medics have examined you from top to bottom, and spent all of last night attempting to understand and correct the problem placed upon you. However, sadly no results have been acquired."

"That can't be. Surely someone here can do something." Sasuke said.

"There is only one person we know who could possibly do anything." Sarutobi started, but Sasuke cut him off quickly.

"Then go get him and bring him here at once! I need my power back!"

Sarutobi held up his hand to silence the genin. "We can't. For one, she is currently unlocated so getting help couldn't possibly be instantaneous. And for another, she is actually from the rival clan of your own, so motivating her to aide you will not be easy."

"I am an Uchiha. I demand she do something about this. She should be honored to be of use to me."

Sarutobi shook his head. "Did you not hear me? I said her clan is your clan's rivals, the Senju. Meaning she has absolutely no reason to want you to be well."

"Then order her to do it anyway. Why should I care if her idiot clan has some problem with mine? I demand I get my power back so I can kill my brother and those other guys too."

"Sasuke, you shouldn't insult those that can help you." Kakashi told his student.

The Uchiha just frowned. "I am an elite, thus I can insult anyone beneath me."

"So you, a mere genin who's only been on one real mission, think you're above a sannin who has years of experience and is qualified to become a hokage?" Hizashi asked.

"Elite means second to no one so yes." Sasuke answered.

Sarutobi gave his two old teammates and Danzo disapproving looks, because he knew they were the primary ones who filled this boy's head with such egotistical nonsense. 'I hope you three now realize you've inflated hs ego a bit too much.'

"You are not the only one who has talent and strength in this village young man." Inoichi told him. "And without your previous sharingan, you won't even have status anymore."

"What the hell does that mean?" Sasuke asked.

Sarutobi cleared his throat for this. "It means that by Uchiha clan law, your own family's law, any Uchiha who is incapable of wielding their sharingan for whatever reason there is, be it genetic or forced onto their person, cannot be considered a member of said clan and is denied all that full-fledged members are entitled too. This includes status, wealth, property, and clan jutsu."

Sasuke paled for a moment then frowned again and rose from his chair, fists clenched. "You can't do this! I am the only Uchiha in Konoha! Everything my clan owned now rightfully belongs to me and me alone!"

"We're not the ones doing this, your clan's laws are. The law that was created by your grandfather and enforced by your own father." Sarutobi told him.

"If you insist on using your heritage as leverage then be prepared for the fallout that comes with it." Tsume told the genin.

Homura spoke next. "We are sorry Sasuke, but it must be done. Until you someday regain the sharingan, you cannot be considered a true Uchiha. You can still use the name, but you will no longer have access to your family's wealth and jutsu collection. And in the event you never regain your kekkei genkai, you won't be allowed access until you sire a child that does show access to the sharingan."

"Fine, then get those stupid brainless bitches that fawn over every move I make. It's about damn time they have some use to me." Sasuke said.

Inoichi frowned. "You would dare use the girls that admire you just to quicken your rise back to power? Have you no feelings for your fans?" 'Ino is not going to like hearing this.'

"I am an avenger. I must kill those that try to worsen my own life. And I need all the power of the Uchiha to do that. If the quickest way to regain that power is what you said, so be it. I need every bit of power I can get my hands on, and I'll do whatever it takes to get it as soon as possible. I absolutely cannot afford to wait."

"Don't the feelings of the girls mean anything to you?" Chouza asked.

Sasuke just scoffed. "Why should I care about a bunch of whiny-ass bimbos? They're just there to do a job and make things easier for me. Plain and simple."

One of the civilian members, the father of one of the Uchiha's anonymous fangirls, glared at him. "Well if that's your attitude then why should any girl help you that way?"

Sasuke smirked confidently. "I am the last Uchiha clan law or not. Therefore I can invoke the CRA and the girls will have to do it."

Sarutobi sent him some KI to regain his attention. "While you are correct that you can invoke the CRA for genetic reasons alone if nothing else, you're forgetting two things about it."

"Like what?" Sasuke said, sitting back down now.

"For one, that the girls cannot be forced to take part in it. CRA law says that participation must be 100% voluntary, and if anyone has reason to suspect otherwise the girl's can be put under a mindwalk and genjutsu test to ensure their actions are not forced and no form of rape occured. If it's discovered they are forced, then the CRA is revoked and the invoker and/or manipulator is arrested for life. Also, the invoker is not allowed to participate in missions or be considered an active ninja for the sake of reducing the risk of losing the genes."

"In short Sasuke, you cannot demand or force any girls to have your kids, and you will not be allowed to leave the village or fight anyone, including Itachi, so you don't die before we confirm the sharingan was passed on." Kakashi clarified.

Sasuek rose to his feet angrily again. "YOU CAN'T DO THIS! I MUST KILL ITACHI!"

"Then don't invoke the CRA." Shikaku told him. "Like it or not, you have only two choices. You can either use the CRA and have immediate access to your clan's property again, but you can't do anything with it except help your kids. Or you can wait and pray for your sharingan to come back on it's own and train to kill your brother the hard way. There is simply no other option."

"Actually, there is only one option for Sasuke here." Sarutobi told everyone. "I'm sorry if I gave everyone here the wrong impression about what can be done for him. I was simply saying what could happen if he did invoke the CRA. However, due to medical reasons he cannot."

"What do you mean?" Koharu asked.

"According to the medics, Sasuke is now as sterile as a surgeon's tool. It is physically impossible for him to sire any offspring period. Therefore the CRA cannot apply to him. Kakashi, you might to get yourself tested too."

Everyone was shellshocked to hear this. Then Natsumi spoke up. "You mean tell me that the last Uchiha is not only incapable of using his sharingan, but is also incapable of passing it down to the next generation?"

Sarutobi nodded. "Yes. It appears that the Uchiha line will die with Sasuke right here."

Sasuke looked livid. 'I swear, I will KILL whoever did this to me!'

Sarutobi folded his hands together and rested his chin on them. "So basically Sasuke, you cannot invoke the CRA as there would be no point to it, and by your clan's law, you cannot have access to anything under Uchiha claim until you somehow regain your kekkei genkai. In short, you are no longer an elite, but a normal genin shinobi."

"I am an elite! End of story!"

"Oh shut the hell up already. You're not an elite anything." One of the council members told him irritably. "You really think you're so special just because of your family name? Big deal. What have you personally done that's so great?"

Sasuke thought it over, trying to come up with an irrefutable answer. "I was my class' Rookie of the Year."

"That may have mattered back when you were in the academy, but out in the real world it doesn't matter. There you were in controlled situations with no real threats to your safety. Out on actual missions there will be things you're not prepared for and there is always the risk of death. The elites are the ones who make it thru and live to see another day." Tsume told him.

"The elites are the survivors and the succeeders." Shikaku concurred, much to the emo's chagrin.

"In short, you are now no better than any other shinobi that's without a kekkei genkai or clan and you will be treated as such until further notice." Koharu sadly told him.

Sasuke was pissed. The people who had always catered to his needs were now telling him his only sense of self was now obsolete. "You cannot do this to me!"

"If you don't like it, then by all means resign. But it won't change anything. At least if you stay a ninja you can still try to accomplish your goals." Sarutobi told him, then narrowed his eyes. "But let me make this perfectly clear Sasuke, until further notice, you are no different than anyone else. Until you prove otherwise, you are on the same level as all other genin without clans."

"Which actually makes you one of the lower ranking ones since most genin here do come from clans." Hizashi added.

Sasuke was mentally on a precipice. He simply couldn't comprehend that everything he knew about himself was being thrown out the window. No one could, of course, but for him this was too much to take in. "You can't do this! This village needs me!"

"Why? Without your sharingan, or the ability to pass it on, what good are you to us boy?" Danzo asked coldly, making Sasuke freeze. "The fact of the matter is boy that your sharingan is the only thing about you that made you special in the first place. Had the Uchiha not been wiped out by your brother, you would have just been another academy student to us. Your brother's actions are the only reason we've ensured things have worked out in your favor all the time. Such as discounts at all stores and your rent, extra credit on your grades, and more access than normally permitted to genin for jutsus."

Sasuke looked like he wanted to throw up. "That can't be. I'm the best in this village. You've been telling me that for years."

"Didn't you ever ask yourself why?" Danzo asked. "We did so because you're of use to us. Or at least you were."

"Danzo-san, maybe you should stop right there." Koharu suggested.

"Why? What's the point of hiding it from him anymore?" Danzo asked then faced Sasuke again. "We pampered you because you were our only hope for keeping the sharingan alive in this village and none other. Nothing more. But now that you can't and most likely never will, you're going to have to live on like everyone else you're so certain is beneath you. Face it, you're nobody now."

Sasuke's mind collapsed, making his body go limb. 'All this time, I thought they really thought I was superior. But... they were just using me the whole time? Am I really no better than anyone else without my eyes?''

Danzo turned to face the hokage. "Sarutobi, is it possible that we can somehow bring Itachi back to the village so we can use him to keep the sharingan alive?"

This brought Sasuke back to reality. "What? You'd really bring him back here for that? But I need to kill him for what he did."

"Shut up kid." One of the civilian members told him. "I agree with Danzo-sama. We must do whatever it takes to keep the sharingan from going extinct. If Itachi Uchiha is now our only option, then I say we do what we must. Even if it means offering him a full pardon for his actions."

"We shall discuss that later. For now, meeting adjourned." Sarutobi declared.

Everyone started to leave the room but Sasuke made no effort to go anywhere. Kakashi approached him. "C'mon Sasuke, let's take you home." His student rose to his feet and kept to himself the entire walk back to his apartment. 'I just hope he doesn't do anything rash.'

'The next time I see those music note ninja, I will kill them all.' Sasuke promised himself.
