IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!

Hello! This is my first time on this site and I wanted to say that this is an adopted story from an amazing writer named Illuviar. Illuviar is the original writer of this story and I have gotten permission to adopt this story. I hope you like the way I have written this story.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto besides the things that have deviated from cannon. If I did own Naruto, then he would not have lived the way he did. Then again, he would not be the boy he is now, so I guess I can settle for this.

Hope you enjoy!


Altered Story

Prologue: Shattered Dream


Battlefield

Fourth Shinobi World War

The Last of the Shinobi In the Elemental Nations

"Tr-Troubles-s-some b-b-blonde. . ." Nara Shikamaru stuttered his last words after taking a blow from the enemy. Of course he would be one of the last to die because of his position as the Allied Shinobi Forces' Chief Strategist and Adviser to the Rokudaime Hokage of Konohagakure.

Uchiha Sasuke did not pay any mind to the other black haired man's passing. He was focused on the visage of a woman a few feet away. Her cherry blossom colored hair was stained with blood. Her name is Haruno Sakura, gakusei of the Godaime, Head Iryo Nin of the Allied Shinobi Forces, and user of the Byakugo no In. She died trying to save her best friend and the woman he loved. The woman he can't bare to look at right now.

He was a fool. He thought they would have more time and didn't want to distract her with his feelings. He had decided to tell her when the war ended. Now she was gone.

Uchiha Sasuke, former S-Rank nukenin, former traitor of Konohagakure, gakusei of the Hebi Sennin, and Commander of his section in the Allied Shinobi Forces was in love with Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto, Kyubi Jinchuriki, gakusei of the Gama Sennin, Rokudaime, and Leader and Commander of the Allied Shinobi Forces.

These feelings were there even from back when they were twelve, but the thought of those bonds distracting him from his revenge made him lock up his feelings for her.

A deafening roar shook him out of his thoughts and he turned to look at the battle going on before him. The Kyubi, or Kurama as Naruto calls him, was in the middle of a battle with resurrected Uchiha Madara. It was Naruto's last act before dying, releasing her friend from the seal so he would not die with her. But Kurama would not last long before his ancestor would capture him with the eyes they were infamous for, the Sharingan.

Sasuke looked around the battlefield. Large holes, the ground littered with weapons, smoke from the dozens of jutsus fired about during the war. He and the other two fighting were the only ones left. Looking back at Madara, he decided to distract him to get his plan into place. Charging his katana with lightning, he ran towards the fight, aiming for the man who caused him and others, pain. Madara blocked with his own weapon and elemental chakra.

"It sickens me how you still fight when it is obvious you are losing," the man sneered pushing him away with a Shinra Tensei, which sequentially pushed the mighty beast as well.

Seeing that, Sasuke recovered from the push and too his chance.

"Tsukyomi," Sasuke whispered as he locked eyes with the Kyuubi.

He found himself on a familiar corpse filled field. The only difference was that there was a large, nine-tailed fox growling at him from one end of the field.

"You've got some nerve using those eyes on me, brat," Kurama grumbled with narrowing eyes.

"You know I had a good reason for it," Sasuke shot back.

"Tch."

"Anyway, I need your help." Then proceeded to explain the plan to Kurama.

Slitted-red eyes widened at the information.


Konohagakure

Second Part of the Chunin Exams

Training Ground 44 "The Forest of Death"

Sakura was shivering from the waves of KI rolling from the grass shinobi. All she could do was watch as Naruto and Sasuke unsuccessfully try to beat him, her, whatever it was. It he/she laughed at them when the two made their attacks. He/she was toying with them!

She watched helplessly as Naruto was caught after her moment of monstrous strength that came out of nowhere.

It was strange. Chakra, whenever it was visible, always had a blue coloring to it, but the one that the blond-red head was using had a red color. With it, Naruto's features had also turned sharper and more animistic. When Naruto had released her own wave of KI, it scared her as much as the grass shinobi's. When did Naruto become so strong?

The grass shinobi came closer to her teammate and slammed their glowing hand to Naruto's stomach.

"Sasuke! Hurry! Do something!" Sakura screamed. The chakra from her teammate was receding back into her returning her features to their original form.

Then, something strange happened.

The heavy chakra burst from Naruto again, but this time it was a golden color that held warmth to it. The same evil intent was missing, yet it was the same chakra. It's as if it was purified somehow.

A tendril of golden chakra moved around the surprised grass shinobi as it watched the chakra surge towards Sasuke.

A flash of light came and it was so bright that Sakura had to shield her sight from it. A thunderclap echoed throughout Konoha and the surrounding miles beyond.

Then, Sasuke let out a tortured scream like a soul from the depths of hell as its torture went on forever.


Well, how'd you like that? The next chapter will be coming. And as I say in my Wattpad account. I do not have an update schedule so the coming up chapters will come randomly. I might be gone for a long time but I won't leave this story unfinished. I'm stubborn that way. No flames please. If you cannot say anything nice, then do not say it. I do really hope you like this.


Edit: There is a reason why I did this. I was making my own podfic for this story because I felt like it and I read the chapters out loud.

One thing's for sure: This sucked!

I'm pretty sure I got some of my information wrong because in the Prologue Sasuke was still counted as a missing nin, but in further chapters he was a Commander. I can't believe I did that! I'm surprised none of you said anything.

I will continue to edit the chapters to fit the original plan now so if you were confused, I hope that I've fixed this now.

Peace! Keep Calm and Love Naruto!
