Chapter 1

Sasuke Uchiha

I am worried about three things. The first, my coven initiation is tomorrow. Second, I need a familiar, and third, my uncle Shisui will kill me if he realizes I'm worried about either of those things.

I'm a witch, born and raised in Konoha village. My father, Fugaku, and my mother, Mikoto are members of the Uchiha Coven. We are the oldest and only remaining coven in the country.

When I was a child my parents would frequently recite stories of our ancestors. They were innocent, magic practicers who healed the weak and promoted self-confidence. But the townsfolk turned on them and brutally murdered them...more importantly...at the hands of the Uzumaki's.

The Uzumaki's are renowned witch hunters. They protect Konoha in secret and slay my brethren whenever they get the chance. It is a constant cat-and-mouse game between the two clans. The Uzumaki's try to find and kill us while we, the Uchihas, practice our magic in secret planning our coupe.

But that's not all… there is one more thing I should mention.

Many, many years ago. My elder brother Itachi and my uncle Shisui made a deal with the devil. Not metaphorically...literally. We call him Madara Uchiha, and tomorrow he will be at my initiation.

I will sell my soul to Madara as the rest of my Coven has, and he will bestow me with the power of darkness. I will be gifted with red eyes (Sharingan) that amplify my magical abilities.

But back to right now.

I'm standing in the Forest Of Death which outlines Konoha. A highway runs right through the middle which leads to Sand Village, a whole day's drive away. My car is parked behind me and I make my way into the deepest depths. The trees breathe and the leaves whisper my name pulling me deeper and deeper.

Once I find a clearing, I get down on my hands and knees. I rest my palms in the soul and whisper my mantra to summon any familiars that are listening…

Familiars are, usually, forest spirits that take the form of animals to aid witches in their craft. I'm the only Uchiha without one.

"Spirits of the forest hear my mantra. I wish to find a friend, a teammate, a helper. I wish to form a pact. Please hear my mantra and come to me."

I repeat my mantra five times. The forest remains silent.

"Dammnit…" I roll my eyes. "Back home I guess."

I walk back to my vehicle slightly ashamed. Usually, a spirit would jump at the chance to link with a Witch. We are powerful, after all, and provide them with food, shelter and in some cases pieces of our soul.

Why a familiar doesn't come is beyond me…

My house is on the other side of Konoha village. I pass the pub, high school, and grocery store. Travelling down a long dirt road I arrive at the Uchiha household; a three-level house that is rich with history. It was home to the first Uchiha's and was built over a powerful sigil engraved in the dirt which amplifies magical powers. When I cast spells at home, they are guaranteed to be ten times stronger.

Maybe I need to cast my familiar spell at home? It's worth a shot…

I enter the boot room and look into the kitchen on my right. Itachi and Shisui are sitting across from one another drinking tea (a favourite witch's brew-) They smile at me and I wave back. Behind them, their familiars quirk their heads. Both Itachi and Shisui have twin crows nicknamed Totska and Kotoamatsukami (We can Shisui's crow Koto for short.)

"How did it go?" Shisui asks.

"What do you think?" I complain while shrugging my shoulders.

"Maybe your familiar will join you after the initiation?" Itachi soothes. "Familiars can sense your aura, Sasuke, maybe they see something in you, that you don't realize?"

"Ya. Maybe they don't like gays?"

I only recently came out as gay to my family a week ago, and I can tell you that they couldn't care less. Many witches thrive in sexual encounters of all kinds and we have confidence in our bodies. I wouldn't be the first Uchiha to fly a rainbow flag.

"Familiars don't care about sexual orientation, Outoto-"

"It was a joke." I wave goodbye and make my way to the spiralling staircase. Once in my bedroom, I get on my hands and knees repeating my mantra twenty times for good measure.

"Spirits of the forest hear my mantra. I wish to find a friend, a teammate, a helper. I wish to form a pact. Please hear my mantra and come to me."

Nothing. Filled with doubt and anxiety I slither into bed and close my eyes…

BANG!

My window flies open allowing the cold fall air to blow into my bedroom. My hair is tousled to-and-fro as I desperately try to shield myself with my duvet.

Somebody...or rather, something, is crawling into my bedroom. It has a long oblong body with six legs like a centipede. It has a large hook jaw with rows of jagged teeth. Despite its terrifying appearance. I know what this is, and it fills me with excitement.

A familiar.

"Uchiha...Sasuke…" The familiar growls. "Do you know why I'm here?"

"I cast a spell this morning wishing to make a pact with a familiar."

"Correct…" The shadow-monster crawls across the floor towards me. It wraps its body around me and squeezes tight. It licks its lips and whispers in my ear. "I am no ordinary familiar. I am a royal summon. A being that demands respect and worship from other familiars…"

"So why come to me?" My expression remains cool and calm.

"Because…" it tightens its grip around my legs causing my junk to rub together. Now I'm holding my breath. My body is warm and alight with energy. A moan crosses my lips and the monster seems to enjoy that. It squeezes harder causing my breath to hitch.

"You have a destiny bestowed upon you. You do not know it yet, Sasuke, but you will meet somebody who will change the course of history forever. No familiar has the guts to approach you. But I? Oh I do. Sasuke. I want to be yours forever. You are seething with power. I will do as you wish...and all I ask in return is for you to let me watch history unfold upon you."

"Yes." I groan. "Become my familiar and I'm all yours forever."

"Good. I am now your servant. My name is Aoda...let me feel your soul and I will turn into an animal which best suits your magical capabilities."

I've never had a familiar 'feel my soul' before so I don't know what it entails...but I'm ready; excited, even. My body is trembling with excitement. I

'm forming a pact with a royal summon. My powers will be beyond anything the Uchiha's can imagine!

Aoda looks me in the eye with his own yellowish-orange slits. One of his hands pry my mouth open and a dark shadow shoves its way down my throat filling me with heat. I throw my head backwards and gasp. It doesn't hurt, but it does feel like my insides are being sucked up into a vacuum.

"Relax." Aoda soothes. "You're soul is emotional and powerful. But I sense something else...a tear between light and dark. You'll need to decide which you want to be...for now, the animal that suits a soul like this is one that tempts and deceives, yet is cunning and willing to do whatever it takes to survive."

My insides are literally twisting and turning while my cock throbs.

"Yes! That's it!"

Aoda drops me to the floor and I land with a heavy- thump! My heart is racing a mile a minute yet I take this opportunity to tuck my erection between my legs. I look down at the floor and my eyes turn wide.

Aoda has turned into a ten-foot-long snake with brilliant blue scales and four horns. He twists, looking up at me with eyes teeming with devilish intent.

"Now. My master. Shall we dance under the moonlight?"
