Chapter Two:
Bright, sunny and cheerful were words most people would associate with being out in the sunlight. Sasuke however, had one word to describe the world that existed outside his realm: Annoying. The upper world was nothing like his realm. It lacked the depth, and mystery that the Underworld possessed. The people, who lived in the world above his realm, were mostly, superficial, vain, ignorant of things that are important and the lessons that life had to offer them, and most importantly, they were annoying. Hmm. At least the idiots in his realm learn their mistakes and they learn it very well. For example, some people might assume that the punishment of Sisyphus did not fit his crime. But, what those idiots don't realise is that the most fitting punishment for anyone has to be one that is carefully given after the guilty person's character has been carefully analysed. Then the most insulting punishment is given. King Sisyphus pushing a stone uphill that will then roll downhill, only for him to push it uphill again, for all eternity in Tartarus will feel the insult of being reduced to a common worker whose brain is not needed to carry out any action. A king who likes to see the end of his works and view results; he would forever feel the pain of not seeing any end to his labours. Now, that is how to give punishments to people who deserve them, and who would learn from their actions. It was a brilliant punishment, one that only a fellow intellectual probably Temari could appreciate. Yes.
Sasuke still couldn't believe that he was actually in the upper world to see Minato's brat. Hmm. If not for the promise, he probably wouldn't be going. But he is a god who keeps his promises. If he didn't, he won't be different from that annoying brother of his, who likes to make his promises in haste and then fail to keep them. Sasuke of course denied that his promise to see Naruto was made in a hasty manner. As far as he is concerned, he made the decision out of careful thought, and did so to prove to Naruto that he would forever be a child no matter how many years he has aged. Five years is definitely not a long time for anyone to have matured, Sasuke believed. He was even sure that the child would still be looking like an imp that loved to disturb others and cause his elders pain. At this thought, Sasuke winced slightly, as he recalled the kick to the shin. Hmm. He was sure the child had probably still not learnt how to treat his elders with respect.
The sudden laugh that filled the air had him pausing and turning around. The sound brought to his mind the vision of the young boy who ran ahead of his father to go and torment his aunt at the feast that was held at Olympus. But, the sound had a deeper tone to it. It sounded like the laugh he had heard five years ago, and yet it did not sound like the laugh. Hmm. With his mind filled with an impish child with blond hair and huge blue eyes, Sasuke turned to catch his first glimpse of Naruto and froze at the sight he saw. Yes, the boy still had the boundless energy he possessed when he was a child. His hair was still blonde, and his eyes were still blue. But that was where it all ended. Naruto's blonde hair when he was twelve had been the hair of a child that most people would have wanted to ruffle, now at seventeen, he had the hair of a man that Sasuke could imagine holding on to, in various ways that would most certainly not bring children to mind. Sasuke also felt the desire to run his fingers through the hair and find out if it would really be as soft as he felt it probably would be. Hmmm
Had the eyes always been such a shocking shade of blue, Sasuke asked himself. And the body was clearly that of a man and not of the boy who had stolen from his dish at the feast that Jiraiya had held five years ago. When did the child grow into a man? Hmmm, Sasuke smirked as he realised that things were getting very interesting. Who knew that coming to the surface would be filled with such promise?
Sasuke crossed one ankle against the other, leaned back against the tree, and waited for Naruto to notice him. This didn't take very long, and of course Naruto uttered the first thing that came to his mind, "Bastard, what the fuck are you doing here?"
As Naruto walked between the flowers that he watched over in the meadow near his house, he remembered the words he had had with his father and the way his father had insisted on not listening to him. All he wanted was to be given some freedom. He didn't understand why his father couldn't see that. Anyway, what harm would come from him visiting Olympus anyway? Naturally, he loved being with people and he just could not stand the solitude his father seemed to like so much. To make matters worse, his father had to ensure that he could not leave the house without Sakura being there with him. Naruto wondered what his father hoped to achieve. He also wondered what his father would do if he were to realise that the gods still came over to visit him, especially Kakashi who always seemed to either try convincing him to read those annoying books of his, talk about sex or take some wine. Naruto, stopped and scratched his head, all the while wondering if his father would he pleased with him that he was able to resist the temptation of Kakashi, or if he would be angry that he had been receiving visits from Kakashi at all. Parents were so confusing at times, Naruto thought.
A rustle nearby alerted him to the fact that Sakura was near, and if she caught him, she would stick to him like a leech at least until he got home. With a grin, Naruto walked quickly away, then when he had put adequate distance between himself and the leaves that would have immediately given away his location, he ran.
After running for a while, he found himself on a raised platform, from where he could see the flash of pink that was Sakura's hair, he stopped and laughed out loud, in exhilaration of the run, and his thought of Sakura's anger at his escape. A prickling sensation at the back of his neck had him turning around, and seeing a black figure. From his shoes to the top of his head, the man seemed to be covered in black. On looking properly, he realised that the man was wearing an all black robe, and black shoes, had black hair that seemed to stick upwards at the back of his head like the hair liked to rebel, and eyes that were as black as the rest of him, and a smirk on amazing looking lips. Huh? Naruto was briefly distracted at the thought, as he wondered what the hell was wrong with him. The smirk however, brought back memories of a reclusive god in black; a god who was powerful, arrogant, insulting and an outright bastard. That thought clinched it all for him, as he had a name to go with the face: Sasuke, god of the Underworld, otherwise known as the world's bastard.
Naruto, true to his nature uttered the first thing that came to his mind "Bastard, what the fuck are you doing here"?
With the same irritating smirk on his face, the bastard answered" What do you think Dumbass? I'm here to keep my promise of checking up on you when you are older. Although from what I can see, your habit of speaking without thinking has not changed at all, and you still act like a brat, brat".
Apparently, Naruto thought, even if the bastard is kind of hot in that pale skin, dark hair, black as night eyes, brooding ways, innate arrogance and lanky yet well-muscled body way, he is and will always remain a bastard. Wait a minute; Naruto paused in his thoughts, Sasuke? Hot? Uh-oh. What the hell is wrong with him that he is thinking of Sasuke like that? See, the bastard is still smirking. At which point, Naruto began to entertain thoughts of punching that smirk off the bastard's face.
"Why would I respect a bastard like you? Naruto screeched.
With the arrogance that Sasuke always has, he answered "Because I am the god of the Underworld, and you are nothing but a snotty faced brat who is merely playing at being an adult".
Anger makes him even more beautiful, with his blue eyes being bigger and cloudy and his blonde hair seeming to glow even brighter with the intensity of the emotions he is feeling, Sasuke thought. How very interesting.
"Why you..." Naruto growled, and then proceeded to kick Sasuke in the shin again.
Sakura's voice calling for Naruto could suddenly be heard drawing closer.
"You know what, I don't have time for this" Sasuke said. And before he returned to his home, he turned to Naruto and said "By the way, you are still a child", and with a smirk, he vanished.
With a growl, Naruto turned to Sakura who asked him where he had been and answered "Nowhere. Let's just go home"
In his thoughts, he was planning how to make that bastard god of the underworld pay.
Back at home in the Underworld, Sasuke smirked in delight at the thought of Naruto. Oh yes, he would do quite nicely he thought. Quite nicely indeed.
He made his way to pay a visit to Shisui and Itachi in their part of the realm as he realised that he would need their help for his plan.
"So, what brings the great lord of the Underworld to our humble abode"? Shisui asked with mockery in his voice when Sasuke made his appearance.
"I require your assistance in a matter", Sasuke replied.
"Hmm" Itachi said which can be translated as "What"?
"There is someone I desire to court" Sasuke replied.
"So, you have descended to seducing people in their sleep now"? Itachi said
"No! It's not like that", Sasuke said, and thought in his mind about how infuriating Itachi was. He wondered why Itachi made him feel awkward like a little kid asking his big brother for help.
"Well, who's the girl"? Shisui asked.
"No. Who is the boy"? Itachi asked.
"Naruto", Sasuke replied.
"So, not only have you descended to seducing people in their sleep, you have also become a paedophile"
Sasuke resisted the urge to scream, and replied in a cool tone "He is not a child".
Naruto opened his eyes and found himself in a garden. He looked around, and wondered where he was. The air was fragrant with the smell of the flowers that he could see all around him, but the light was quite dim, and all he could see were shadows and faint silhouettes of the plants. A movement to his right had him turning around, and then he saw another figure a couple of feet away from where he was. As Naruto considered approaching the figure to ask him for help in recognising where he was, he noticed that the figure began to move towards him. As the figure that seemed to be shrouded in the dark, advanced towards him, Naruto had a feeling that it was someone he knew or at least someone he should know, but he couldn't place where he might have met the person before. What he did know though, was that from the height and the strange build of the strange figure, he was probably male. While he had been thinking with his head lowered in concentration, the figure had been drawing near, so when Naruto lifted up his head, the figure was right in front of him. With his mouth opened to ask the strange figure where the place they were in was, Naruto suddenly found himself pulled with strong arms into an embrace and foreign lips were suddenly on his own. Now, Naruto knew all about kissing and sex from the talks he had with Kakashi, as Kakashi seemed to delight in telling him things he didn't want to know about, and laughing at his insistence that he didn't want to hear about such things. Naruto began to wonder if maybe he should have paid better attention to his discussions with Kakashi.
A hand moving to grab his butt and squeezing it had Naruto moaning out loud, which gave the tongue the opportunity to enter his mouth. It swept and tasted every corner of Naruto's mouth as if it was trying to imprint it on its owner's memory. Naruto, not willing to surrender so easily, then began to battle with the tongue. He held on to the biceps of the figure and used his tongue to learn the taste of the figure's mouth. Sudden movement had the figure pulling Naruto to the ground, and then proceeding to get on top of him. This had Naruto disoriented for a while as he could now feel the figure and he realised that the figure was unmistakably male, fully erect and so also was he himself. Naruto's thoughts were cut short when the figure suddenly began to grind against him, and rub their erections together. This time, Naruto groaned as he lifted his hips so that his cock could better rub against the figure's cock. Although their clothes were still on, he could feel the heat of the figure's cock through the material of the robes he wore, and it felt like there were almost naked. Naruto felt like he was in a daze as he felt so hot, and felt his body striving towards its release. The groan of the figure above him also signalled the figure's fast approaching release, and the two of them picked up speed and rubbed faster.
"Harder... Faster" Naruto panted as he thought... so close.
He felt the intensity of his release beginning and let out a scream as he began to cum
Only to wake up in his bed with cum soaked sheets and his body shaking very badly. "What the fuck was that?" Naruto panted.
AN: There are two different theories in mythology about why Sisyphus was punished. One school of thought believe that Sisyphus was punished because he was greedy, deceitful and was fond of killing travellers who came to his country of Corinth.
Another school of thought believe that he was punished because he told Asopus that his daughter had been taken by Zeus, thus tattletaling on a god.
When Zeus sent Thanatos, the god of death to take Sisyphus to the Underworld, Sisyphus tricked Thanatos, and chained him. Because of this, nobody was dying, so Ares went to go and release Thanatos. Eventually, Sisyphus was brought to the Underworld. However, before he left, he ordered his wife not to bury his body.
When Sisyphus got to the Underworld, he reported his wife to Persephone, and begged her to allow him to go back to the surface and rebuke his wife for not burying him, and then get her to perform the burial. Persephone then allowed him to return out of pity, but Sisyphus still didn't come back. Eventually, Hermes forcefully dragged off Sisyphus to the Underworld where he was given the punishment of rolling a huge stone upwards for all eternity. What made the punishment more terrible was the fact the every time he rolled the stone uphill, the stone always rolled downhill.
Anyway, please read and review the chapter. Thanks.
