Hello to all my loving fans out there, I have been offline for a while so I figure I should get back into the swing of posting more often. So let's just answer a few things right quick before getting started.
Aidois: There will be a bit of further explanation about memory release and its abilities later on in the story, though I'm glad you're curious about it, I've not gotten many reviews circulating that particular point.
Bladetrie: Don't ask why, but your review constantly makes my day lol
Kuroi: Thank you, I do hope you like my take on her. Though feel free to message me with any concerns or ideas to add, I accept all constructive criticism.
Now then, without further Adue, I bring you the next thrilling entry of…..
Naruto Reborn: Sasuke Uchiha
Chapter 3 page 3
Naruto fell to his knees, panting heavily as he tried to pull himself to his knees. Looking up he glared into the yellow eyes of Orochmaru, who lifted him up to his feet.
"Look, I don't know who you are but, I've seen your memories young one. You may be controlling Sasuke-kun now, but you have many goals in mind as well. I can it in your eyes, you know you want my power, it can help to save those friends of yours. That are under attack you know" The snake Sanin said, smirking evilly as he saw the hate burn in the raven haired boys eyes. This mental battle had been going on for hours, and the fight was wearing out Naruto. At this rate Naruto would be too weak to resist Sasuke's dark thoughts, he didn't know how much longer he'd be able to resist.
"I… I ju-..." He was interrupted suddenly by the image of Hinata and Ami under attack from a few Sound ninja, others had come to help but, it was a losing fight. They needed him and he couldn't help so long as he was in this damned mental war. He couldn't help it, if this was the only way to get this done, he'd take the risk. "Fine…. Give me your power, but just this once"
Orochimaru then smirked a bit, reaching a hand out and jamming it into his gagged and tried to grab The snake sanin's arm but found that when he tried, his body wouldn't respond. Instead a devastating surge of power ran through him. He knew now why Sasuke loved the power so much, it felt amazing! He knew that this power was addicting, so he knew he needed to make this quick so he wouldn't become mad with power. The last thing he needed was a snake driven power rage fueled by Sasuke anger, so he'd make this quick then see if Kurama could remove it.
His world seemed to fade back and he was beyond angry by what he saw…
*In the Real World
Naruto awoke to see Hinata being held by a sound ninja, ready to gut her while several of his friends had been taken down by the sound nin, what really angered him was that BOTH of his teammates had been kidnapped by the nin and were being held unconscious in ransom for him. So he decided it was time to make his presence known, and flared his newfound power.
*With the Ninja*
"Give us the Uchiha brat or else we'll-" Zaku found his sentence interrupted as the tree that the teams had been trying so hard to protect suddenly exploded into splinters. Shards of the tree flew around as a mixed red and violet chakra exploded around a shadow in the center of the mass, red glowing marks slowly crawling over the shadow as it stood up.
*Background Music: Monster by Skillet*
"You think that you can, just show up out of the blue…. Kidnap my team, and then try to ransom them back to kill me?!" The voice sounded like Sasuke, but seemed to shift between a demonic tone and a normal one as he spoke. "I'll show you just who you're messing with!"
The male stepped out to reveal none other than Sasuke, but he looked extremely different: Black and red flame like designs across his skin, Sharingan active with black sclera and with what looked like extended fangs, even stranger his hair had spiked up a little into what looked like ears as he moved a bit closer. The red and purple aura still surrounding him as he glared at the individuals holding his friends before turning to the wrapped up male. "I take it you'd like to go first, since the others will need an example of what happens when you fuck with me?"
Hinata and Ami slowly came to around the time of the chakra burst, and looked to see Sasuke there with an untold amount of power surging from his body. The way he looked and the way he talked it, didn't sound like the Sasuke they knew at all. He was cold and even sadistic in his words, almost like a whole new person got free of him. This new Sasuke was angry, and ready to kill it seemed.
Before the wrapped boy could even think of what to say he found a fist crammed right where his mouth should be, sending him flying back toward a tree. When he collided he slid to the ground as everyone looked awestruck at the outstretched clawed hand of Sasuke, who had seemingly just instantly moved and laid out a boy with a single blow.
Naruto then stood and growled softly before glancing at the remaining two.
"So who's next?" Came his almost nonchalant answer as he looked between the two, only for the male who held Ami to react in a way that all but sealed his fate.
"I'll take this dance ya violet Uchiha freak!" He said as he threw Ami away and sent her body to the ground as she yelped a bit and tried to stand, causing Naruto to growl deeply as he looked at the male with his crimson eyes. Now this guy had done it. Naruto smirked a bit while slowly getting into a stance, looking at the male before giving a "Bring it" gesture with two fingers. He was going to make this boy suffer in ways nobody could possibly imagine. The male then got into a stance writer arms outstretched, calling out his attack with pure fury.
"Take this you Bastard, nobody hurts Dosu and gets away with it! Decapitation Air Waves!" With his cry came a sudden burst of wind with extreme speed, creating an explosion and a giant dust cloud where Sasuke had been. Smirking in victory Zaku held his bicep and gave a call while flexing. "Guess he wasn't so tough after all huh, one shot took him right-Gch!"
His monologue came to an abrupt halt when an ungodly force collided with his abdomen, courtesy of none other than our resident raven haired Uchiha boy. Said boy didn't stop there though, far from it. Before Zaku could even manage to catch his breath he felt his hair being grabbed and pulled so he was leaning back, quickly followed by a jab to his throat to make him choke on his own oxygen. When he leaned forward to try to gasp for air he found his arms yanked behind him and a foot pressed to his back.
"You seem pretty confident in these little toys of yours, let's see how you play when I take them!" Without another word Naruto gave a hard pull, making the boy scream out as his wrists left the sockets, followed by his forearms and finally his shoulders. Each severed joint caused a sickening pop and crack as the bones we're strained to near breaking. Even after this though he kept pulling, it seemed he was honestly going to rip the screaming boy's arms off.
"Let's play a game, we'll play this, little, piggy!" With one hard yank the screaming boy felt flesh and bone tear away as in a shower of gore his arms were clean severed from his shoulders. No one could believe what they were watching, Sasuke had just maimed the boy beyond being a ninja, and was laughing now as he turned to the slowly rising Dosu. Said boy saw his armless companion and the Uchiha male with his friend's severed arms and realized this guy meant business. He stumbled back, saying he surrendered over and over as he tried to make the upcoming slaughter stop. Sasuke dropped the arms and slowly made his way to the boy, who's back was to a tree now and would be easy prey. Lifting his arm slowly he readied his clawed hand to end the pitiful little male.
…. But the finishing blow never came….
*End Background music*
Dosu opened his eyes to see the clawed hand had stopped mid swing, a female clinging to either side of the male tightly. He'd just been saved, by the very girls who he'd been about to kill less than ten minutes ago.
"Stop, please Sasuke….." Came the voice of Ami.
"This isn't you Sasuke, it's that mark making you do it…" Hinata's voice came next, the two of them ringing loudly in Naruto's head. Slowly the marks began to fade away, receding back to his shoulder before spiraling into the black sharingan mark and fading away as his body slowly returned to normal as well. With that done the raven haired boy rocked back and forth, his eyes fading to normal before he went limp in the girl's arms.
"What, what the hell was that?" The voice of Tenten spoke as she walked toward the trio, followed closely by her team and the rest of the people who had helped them.
"Honestly Tenten, we don't know ourselves…. But that mark that the man gave him… it changed him. We need to tell Obito-sensei about this when we get back." Hinata said, getting all around nods from the group before hearing Dosu speak.
"On behalf of me and my team, please let us retrieve our wounded and go, and take this as a sign of your victory" He placed their scroll on the ground, then after receiving the okay from the others he and Kin grabbed Zaku and they made their escape.
*Later at the Tower*
After making it to the tower and successfully waking up Naruto the trio made their way inside, taking the scrolls from their pouches they began to read the riddle on the wall. But before they could get into it they say Naruto placing the scrolls on the ground in a cross pattern before stepping back.
Before they could ask what he was doing a puff of smoke erupted from the scrolls and revealed none other than Iruka from their graduating class, who was smiling brightly at the team.
"Well it seems you guys figured it out then, I'm proud of you. I knew you could do it" He said while smiling and ruffling Ami's hair, causing the girl to smile her happiest smile yet. Naruto couldn't help but smile a bit, happy to see that one thing stayed the same in this world. Iruka was still the best older brother ever.
After going through the explanation of the scrolls Iruka allowed the team into the Tower doors, telling them where to find their room and to get rested up for the next part of the exam. Though Iruka noticed an odd occurance, as Sasuke made his way into the door he suddenly gripped his shoulder, giving a small wince of pain as he did. Recognising that gesture from Anko Mitarashi he knew this was information he would need to report to their sensei, knowing Sasuke he would try to make sure his team didn't tell for risk of them losing the exam.
"I should find Obito-san" He said as he vanished.
And thus concludes another thrilling entree to my little series, hope you don't mind the shorter chapter, I'm hoping to get into the prelims and make the chapters long enough to get a few good battles in, so sorry if it seems a bit rushed Y'all. Thank you for your continued support in my story everyone! Longer pages next time I promise!
