Artheph's Note: Finally, the story gets to THE PART THAT makes it MY OWN IDEA! ...at the very end of this chapter. The part that makes it SO INCREDIBLY different from "the uchiha restoration". Again, thank you "the uchiha restoration" author who inspired me to write this story!! And sorry it took so loooong to update...school is so very evil. Oh, I made the paragraphs all nice, indented, and it's a lot easier to tell when it's a new paragraph!!

Sasuke opened his eyes. It was still nighttime. What had woken him up then? He looked over to his left. There was Sakura...crying in her sleep. It had been two days since they ...erm...attempted to make Uchiha babies. Sakura hadn't taken it very well and had avoided him most of the time after that. He had decided to not push it. Sasuke sighed. She even cries in her sleep, he thought. He reached over to brush away the constantly falling tears.
"I'm sorry...I'm sorry," he whispered. And for the second time, Sakura never heard his words.
Sasuke and Sakura were out grocery shopping. Apparently, so were Naruto and Hinata.
"Hinata! Over here!" Sakura yelled out before Sasuke could stop her.
Naruto...Sasuke thought, angrily.
Sasuke...Naruto thought, angrily, as Hinata went to join Sakura.
The two men glared at each other in such a way that it was like they were two cowboys in an old western movie. Sasuke stood there at one end of the dusty road. Naruto stood on the other end with his spurs clicking. A tumbleweed rolled by. In the end, only one man would be left standing. Then, he'd ride off on his pony into the setting sun. But, in reality, Naruto and Sasuke were standing five inches away from each other in the bustling Konoha open-air market.
"Sasuke," Naruto acknowledged.
"Naruto," Sasuke nodded.
The glaring continued.
"Sasuke! Apologize to Naruto now!"
"But Sakuraaaaa," Sasuke whined.
"Naruto! You know what you have to say!"
"Hinataaaa!!"
The two men turned to glare at their wives. Naruto and Sasuke couldn't bear to be whipped around in front of each other.
"Sorry," they said simultaneously.
"Good! So Hinata, I know this great stall that has really ripe tomatoes." The two women left.
"Naruto...I"
"Sasuke...I"
Both had spoken at the same time. They both sighed.
"Oh screw this. Wanna grab some ramen?"
"Fine with me."
Hinata glanced back at the two men going towards Ichiraku.
"If only women could solve their problems as easily as men."
Artheph's Note: BOOM! IT"S THREE MONTHS LATER!!
It had been three months since Sasuke and Sakura married. Sakura still was not pregnant. Something had to be wrong. Horribly wrong. Sasuke was getting worried. After all, he really, really wanted to revive his clan. And there couldn't be anything wrong with him. Hey, he was Uchiha Sasuke for heaven's sake. So, it must be Sakura's fault. Man, he thought, I would've picked Hinata if Naruto hadn't gotten her first. I mean, she DOES have the Byakugan. Anyway, he scheduled an appointment with the best doctor in Konoha, Dr. Tsunade.
"Well, then, since nothing in general is wrong with you guys, how about we
try a fertility test?"
"Sure."
"Ok, Sakura. How about you Sasuke?"
"What?"
"You have to take it too."
"What're you talking about?"
"I think it'd be the best if both of you took the test."
"But there CAN'T be anything wrong with me."
"You can never be too sure."
"IT'S IMPOSSIBLE! There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with me. I'm SASUKE, remember?"
Tsunade rasied her eyebrow and looked at Sakura. Sakura shrugged, resignedly.
"C'mon Sasuke. You have to take the test."
"No."
"If you don't, I'll tie you to a log, and, oh I dunno, maybe have Naruto beat you up? Or Lee? Or Neji?"
Sasuke stared at her. Evilly.
"Hey, I have some rope right here." Tsunade mysteriously pulled out some rope from under her chair.
"... Fine. But I'm telling you, it's a waste of time."
"We'll see."
The next three days as Sasuke and Sakura were waiting for the test results were hell. All Sasuke did was mope around the house, mumbling phrases like "Impossible, nothing's wrong with me" and "It has to be HER." Sakura was at the end of her wits. When the message came telling them their results were in, she murmured a prayer of thanks to God.
"Ok, so your results are in! First, Sakura."
Sakura looked at the doctor anxiously. Sasuke merely smirked his "I'm better than you" smirk.
"Hmm...so it looks like..." Tsunade paused. Dramatic music played somewhere in the background.
"Sakura, you're...PERFECTLY NORMAL!"
Silence ensued. You could even hear the crickets. Or maybe it was one of Shino's bugs. You never know. Sakura turned around to look at Sasuke. His smirk had disappeared, and his face had blanched.
"However, Sasuke... I am actually truly sorry to say this, but..you're... sterile."
Sasuke's eyes widened. Sakura gasped. Both proceeded to faint in their chairs.
