Eighth Chapter - Ending the Spiral
She just looks at us, smoke coming out of her mouth. "Eh, Sakura-chan? What's wrong?" He seemed to not believe what we saw. "Don't fucking speak to me, Kyuubi! You murderer...!" Sakura then rushed to Naruto. Drawing a kunai, she launched herself in a close combat against him. So this is the way that pink-haired kunoichi reacted when she knew that blond ninja had a demon inside him? She is so different...
Naruto just defends himself, but he's having trouble, as Sakura seems much stronger. Besides, she knows the Uchiha jutsus; how's that possible? "Kage Bunshin no jutsu!" Even shouting, Naruto's face seems deprived of emotion, as if he still was trying to understand. The kage bunshins appear, but before they could do something: "Katon, Goukakyuu no jutsu!" And they are almost all gone; except for one, that grabs her from behind. "Why? What have i done?" Naruto asked, with a pleading face.
"Don't speak nonsense!" Then she freed herself from the kage bunshin and threw it on him. Made some hand seals. "Katon, Ryuuka no jutsu!" Suddenly, another jet of flame came and blocked the ryuuka! The other fire came from a level two sharingan Sasuke. Eh? Level two? "What in the hell are you doing, Sakura!" Sasuke yells. "Are you okay?" Same Sasuke asks Naruto, but with a much more softer voice. Naruto gets up without answering, his face still showing the shock from Sakura's reaction.
"Why are you helping him! He is our enemy, we--" Sakura then slaps her forehead. "You have been brainwashed by the monster, haven't you!" She readies her kunais. "Since two years, this thing causes disgrace to all of us... It ends now!" Two years! But the last attack of Kyuubi was twelve years ago! She cannot be Sakura! So who is her?
Sasuke and Sakura start to fight a medium-ranged battle, and thanks to the sharingan, every katon that (false) Sakura uses is countered by Sasuke. But this time, she isn't as half as determinated, it looks like as she lost her will to fight. An-- Oh my, why didn't i thought about this before? "Please, stop! Sakura-san, he isn't the one you want to kill! Answer me, is this city familiar to you!" I speak as loud as i can. They continue it. "If this city isn't familiar to you, and you got here because you ended lost, then it probably means you came to a parallel dimension!"
That's what i thought earlier. To my surprise, they all stop. "Parallel dimensions? What is that?" she asks me, watching carefully each of our movements. "They are dimensions that contain the same individuals, but they have another story." Don't stutter. Calm down, and she will understand you, and everything will be okay (now that she is paying attention to me, if i do anything wrong my skin will toast). "For example, this Naruto isn't the Kyuubi."
"Don't try to trick me; he has the demon's chakra." True, Sakura. "But the demon hasn't taken control of him, and never will! But that happened in your dimension, didn't it?" I hope that the seal is strong enough. Sakura was silent. "If he truly was the fox, then you wouldn't be alive, as he wouldn't have mercy." Then i turn to Naruto. "I'm sure your Sakura isn't going to react this way if she knows about the thing sealed." I hope so. "This Sasuke is from this dimension?" Sakura asks. Now that i stop to notice, the cursed seal seems missing... "I believe that i'm from another dimension, too. In my dimension, the fourth Hokage destroyed the demon, then he left on a journey." Hmm. This Sasuke is quite talkative, don't you think so? "What strange, when i asked my copy if he knew Kyuubi, he said the same story." Naruto said; so this Sasuke is the boyfriend of the other Naruto! After all, if they know the same fate regarding Kyuubi's destiny...
"Did you saw Naruto? Where is he?" Sasuke noticed that the copy that Naruto spoke about could only be his Naruto. "Must be at my home." After Naruto said that, Sakura (who was immobile since she asked if Sasuke was from this dimension) unmade the genjutsu. Suddenly, we can see all normal activities of sightseeing and such. "Ah, Sasuke-kun..." She murmurs, not directed to Sasuke. "Something is telling me that i'm making a mistake, but i'll let you go unharmed. Do you have a hokage?" She tells us, with a calm tone.
"Yes, hokage-sama is Tsunade." After i answered Sakura, Sasuke spoke: "It's a coincidence that a sannin is hokage in this dimension. In mine, Jiraiya is, because the fourth insisted for it." Ero-sennin as hokage? This doesn't look good. "Ne, Sakura-chan, in yo-- I mean, Sakura, who's hokage in your dimension?" She looked to Naruto with a not-friendly face, then sighed. "Orochimaru. Not much after Kyuubi appeared, he named him to control Konoha." Her look was of pure sadness. "Let's just go to hokage's office, okay?" I suggested.
During our walk, i told my name to them. But i did other thing too; i thought about all that happened since yesterday, concerning the copies. Follow my line of thought; Jiraiya is the most happy-go-luck of the sannins; he was a porn novelist, for god's sake. Then comes Tsunade, that although happy, has quite some sadness in her life. Last comes Orochimaru, who is pure evil. Let us examine the outcome of Yondaime versus Kyuubi. First, we could assume that Yondaime wins; this would be the happiest ending. The let's suppose a draw; They would end both dead, but at least everything would end well. And at last, if we assumed a victory of Kyuubi. This would be the worst ending possible. Uchiha's destiny also follows the same principle.
Happy, neutral and sad. No, i'm sure there is better words for what i want to say. Uhh... "Yes, that's right! Fluff and angst!" We were in the avenue that leads us to our destination. My other companions looked at me. "Don't you see? Instead of calling the persons of the other dimensions just as the others, we should refer to those who came from this Sakura as Person-A, and those who came from this Sasuke's dimension as Person-F! And if we ever need to refer to the people of this dimension, just call them Person-N!" The three just turned around and continued.
End Chapter-----
A/N: These chapters just grow bigger and bigger... I felt some serious inconsistence on the characters' personalities, specially Naruto, but it may be only me. Anyway, i'll finally start to write the side-fic; i was just waiting for the -F, -N and -A notation, as i'll use it for a lot of things on it. Besides, this chapter pretty much ends the explanation about the name of the fic. Not to mention that you should already be able to figure in what dimension is each main pairing. And don't forget the review; (for the same reasons as always; correct my poor grammar,voice your opinion,just commenting, suggesting a better genre...)stay tuned, as some explanations are yet to be made, and i'll work on the side-fic as soon as possible (ASAP).
A last note: Fear the QuickEdit, it can completely scramble your precious fics (it has a unnerving tendency to group words together).
