A/N: So there's not a lot of talking in the chapter but the story gets into the swing of things after this so I hope you can bare with me :) Hope you enjoy this chapter :)
Leaves rustled and branches swayed as a cool evening breeze swept through Konoha. The sun had begun to fade leaving an orange and pinkish hue along the horizon. An unnerving silence had fallen upon the forest of death; the echoing of heavy footsteps hitting the bark of trees was the only sound that could be heard. A mask of concentration was etched on the young man's face, his blood red eyes were spinning as he flew through the trees.
After spending the night and most of the day debating how they would deal with certain blonde hair boy opening his mouth and giving away their presences had left Sasuke with a severe headache. Orochimaru had suggested using the sharingan to make Naruto forget what he had seen, this caused sarutobi to point out that Naruto was already under the influence of the mangekyo and so it might not work. Minato had argued that speaking to his father would make naruto feel more at ease; this had caused suigetsu to snort and exclaim that seeing his dead father wouldn't make the kid at ease. This had result in a heavy argument in which Sasuke finally lost his cool hissing a shut up and giving everyone in the cave an Uchiha death glare before storming out.
Thus this was why he was now travelling to the said dobe's apartment, pushing his bangs out of his face he sighed. How was he going to explain to that baka that he was there to help him from some hundred year old man who had cast a massive jutsu to manipulate every living being and stopping free will. Even if he used his own eyes and he managed to help Naruto see the truth they would still be stuck in this stupid world until they found Madara.
Shivering slightly he picked up the pace, darkness had finally settled and he need to get to Naruto's apartment quickly without being seen. Entering the village had been much easier now that there was no jutsu or shinobi protecting the village. Jumping up on random rooftop Sasuke gazed upon his old village. He had hated this village with a vengeance when he had found out the truth, so hell bent on revenge he had declared he would kill them all for what they had made Itachi suffer, but over the last couple of weeks he had found his hatred had somewhat subsided.
When he had Orochimaru resurrect the Hokages he hadn't known what to expect, what truths they would tell him and would it cause him more pain or finally grant him some peace of mind. He had learned a lot from their talks, Tobirama had still not warmed up to him but when he declared he would help Konoha defeat Madara, and the second hokage had tried to be a bit nicer about him and his clan.
His change of heart about Konoha had come with the fourths revelation that it was Madara who attacked Konoha with the nine tails and this had then resulted in the Uchiha clan being blamed for the attach. He didn't like being lied to and Madara would have to pay for his part in the destruction of his clan.
It was also through Minato that he had discovered that Naruto was the fourths son. The fact had surprised sasuke at first not because he didn't see the resemblance but because Minato had placed a demon in his own son that he resulted in Narutos loneliness and suffering in his childhood. Minato had explained he hadn't realised that the villagers would see naruto as a monster and not a hero. Also though this minato reviled another revelation, Sasukes mother had been extremely close to Narutos mother and so Mikoto had been named as Narutos godmother and kushina as Sasukes. This had raised many questions that sasuke wanted answered like why wasn't naruto raised by his parents?
The third was able to answer this. As there was much speculation where sasukes clan was at time of the nine tails attack and the fact that the kyubi seemed to be under the control of the sharingan that Danzo and the other elders deemed that Mikoto should have no guardianship over naruto encase the Uchiha clan tried to use the kyubi again. Hiruzen had argued that he had tried everything in his power to let the uchihas raise Naruto but it was never allowed.
The result of this had caused Mikoto to lose her love for the village and it was the last straw for the uchihas who had been blamed and pushed aside and therefore all of this combined together resulted in the planning for the coup d'etat. Unfortunately this revelation had only fuelled sasukes anger towards the village and Madara and that was also how he had ended up standing on a lake using chidori on trees to vent his frustration and anger before he was interrupted. Eventually he had calmed himself down and realised that even though the village hadn't helped his family the main cause of their downfall was due to Madara, Danzo and the other two elders.
With one final glance at the village Sasuke began leaping from rooftops before he reached his target, landing quietly on the large tree that overlooked narutos bedroom window. The dobe had most likely just got home as he was still dressed and was glancing over a book he had pulled out of his rucksack. A red headed woman had also entered the room and was asking Naruto questions to which naruto seemed very annoyed at a as he was currently waving her out of his room. Sasuke assumed this woman was his mother as the way she reacted reminded him of the dobe.
He had waited for a an hour in the darkness watching naruto as he finished read the book and much to his disdain as naruto began to get changed for bed. To his embarrassment he had found himself blushing when naruto had decided to bend over in front of the window. Huffing to himself sasuke waited for naruto to get comfortable in the bed and check the rest of the household was asleep before he deemed it safe to enter.
Carefully lifting the window without making a sound sasuke slipped into the darkness of the room before studying the blonde on the bed, maybe it had been the fact he hadn't really seen naruto grow up or that the last time he had met his eyes had been so full of hatred that he hadn't realised how much naruto had grown and changed. His face had become more define losing the baby fat he had once had when they were genin; his body too had certainly become more developed and lean.
However from what he had learned from the others and himself was that even though this boy in front of him talked and looked like naruto it wasn't him. This naruto didn't shout and scream to get his point across, he wasn't always eating ramen and acting like an idiot, he didn't seem to care as much as naruto did about everything and also seemed to scare much easier. Although if one was to ask sasuke if he preferred this change he would have agreed but in his head he knew it was wrong and no matter how much he wanted to deny it he preferred the old naruto.
Shaking his head sasuke snapped out of his thoughts before walking closer to the bed in front of him. It was time he woke this idiot up and explained everything. However just as his hand outstretched to shake him awake, he found his wrist being griped by a tanned hand and two piercing sapphire eyes staring up at him.
