Chapter 9: Life Goes On, Or Does It?

This chapter is like a flashback to the Naruto Shippuden series after Sora's death. I put all this so that you guys can understand where this is going. If you haven't read the manga or heard that the series ended I would warn you that there are a lot of spoilers. This story clears up on what Sasuke has been up to when he's not around the episodes, which is a part of this story. Anyway, I hope you like the story and get it because it sounds confusing. Enjoy.

After Sora's death, Sasuke and team Hebi at the time went to look for Itachi. Sasuke faces Itachi and luckily beats him; however, he was told by Obito about the truth and obtains the Mangekyo Sharingan. He calls his team Taka and plans to attack the leaf village. They join the akatsuki and face the kage at the meeting. The start of the fourth shinobi war is set and Sasuke's eye vision fades while he uses it on Danzo and Naruto.

Sasuke gets Itachi's eyes transplanted and dreams about the life he wanted to have with Sora. As Sasuke sleeps, he hears Obito come in and say something. "Who is this Sora you've been talking about?" "It's none of your damn business". A few days Sasuke goes to fight in the war and meets the reincarnated Itachi and tells him that Sora knew the truth and says goodbye to Sasuke after the fight with Kabuto.

Sasuke revives Orochimaru and meets with the reanimated hokages and decides to protect the village. They join Naruto in the war and face Madara and Obito. They also faced the goddess Kaguya and stop the infinite tsukuyomi in order to free everyone. Naruto and Sasuke try to square off, until Sasuke uses genjutsu on Sakura to not bother them while fighting. Naruto and Sasuke fight and lose their arms and the symbols from the sage of the six paths.

A few months pass and Kakashi is named the sixth hokage and forgives Sasuke for all the trouble he has caused. He peaks Sakura's head the way Itachi use to do and leaves the village in order to go on his own journey of redemption. He says goodbye to Naruto and trails off, but as he does he sees a huge glow of light shine in the forest. In the light he sees Sora standing there smiling at him and disappears. He leaves with a smile on his face hoping to see her again.

Three years have passed and Sasuke is now 20 years old. He still is armless and holds the seed that Kabuto gave him after Sora died. He reaches to the cave where Sora was buried and inside the cave Kabuto is there waiting for him. "It's been a long time Sasuke. I'm glad you called me in order to see Sora again. You've gotten a lot taller and still have the rinnegan huh?" "Yeah. I'm glad you're doing all right. It seems like after the war, we are still at peace for now. I'm still trying to find evidence on another danger, but so far nothing. You think it's time we use this seed and check if it works?" "I hope so because it took a lot of research for me in order to revive a person; however, there are consequences if it works. If it works Sora will die again in a short amount of time like maybe 3 to 4 years. Shorter if she's pregnant because of the pressure the body has to take. If you want to restore your clan, Sora is the one who will help you".

Sasuke thinks about it twice and doesn't know if seeing her die is worth it or not. He did want to restore his clan and maybe start a family, so he tells Kabuto he's ready. As Kabuto puts water on the seed and uses his chakra to make it grow, a flash of light is shown and the ray of light shows a human, a female with long blue, black hair like Sasuke's. Luckily, Kabuto put a blanket over the seed so they won't see anything naked. There lies a female and she opens her eyes.

"Sora", says Sasuke. "Sasuke is that you?" She wakes up and is stunned to see Sasuke and Kabuto. Sasuke goes over and hugs her. "What happened? How did I get here?" Kabuto explains the experiment he did and Sora thanks him. Sasuke tells her that he'll return because he wants to give her clothes. While Sasuke returns, Sora and Kabuto talk about what happened after she died. "I can't believe you were so evil and Itachi helped you get to your senses. I'm really glad that the 2 of you worked and waited so long to bring me back". "I'm sorry about the war, but the inzanami helped me see the positives and now I'm a nun to the orphans. First, I wanted to tell you how much I missed you Sora". "I missed you too Kabuto". "Sora. I wanted to tell you that I like you and if you don't like me I understand". "Kabuto I…" Sasuke comes in with clothes for Sora to wear. He brings a pancho, a shirt with armor, gloves, and shorts just so they won't match so much. She cuts her hair a bit and has bangs like Sasuke's old hair.

"It's been nice talking to you Kabuto. I hope to see you again". "Sure. Anytime". Sasuke and Sora leave and continue the road to redemption as Kabuto goes back to the orphanage.

Just so you guys know, they're wearing clothes just like in the Last Naruto movie. The next chapter will show them traveling and Sora's pregnancy of Sarada. This will hopefully follow Gaiden. Thanks for reading and please comment.
