Epilogue-
I sat on the couch, reading, and waiting for Sasuke to come home. Things have been going very well since my battle with Suki. My relations with my family really have not changed any, except for Bata visiting me as I recover. I have my own team now, and Sakura seems to have accepted my relationship with Sasuke; though Ino still needs a little bit of convincing.
I'm still recovering from my battle with Suki, who didn't make it through the week, and after many tests, the doctors found out what had happened that night. It turns out that the electricity Suki shot at me went through my naginata (which was still pointed at her) into my body. Instead of going to the ground, as electricity would have done, my chakra took control of the electric currents and pulled them into my center, redirected it, and pushed it back out through my naginata and into Suki's unsuspecting lungs.
Itachi, we fear, will never speak of his full intentions of restarting the war. It seems that with killing the Itachi in the alternate reality, Sasuke also killed Itachi's mind. He just sits around not saying anything, like a vegetable.
Sadly, though, this is the end of my take. Except for saying that my relationship with Sasuke will never be the same after what he told me in the woods that night. Thank you for reading my story as a young protégé's unsuspecting wife.

A/N: and that is the end of my first fic. I'm currently writing an original story that is appearing on under the same penname. If you wish to read that it's going to be called the secrets within. I hope you all enjoyed reading this fic as much as I enjoyed writing it, though I'm glad its finally finished writing after five years…I guess I should not be so busy if I ever want to finish a story before I start posting it. Lol. Comments for future fics are appreciated ^_^
