6. Prologue: Betrayal

another war broke out. with this, sauske made sure to put everyone in place with his power. he let his rage let out and consume him. with the power of the underworld, he destroyed almost every single army and anyone that came before him except the sky god himself.

the battle between them was fierce. but the sky god was no match for him and surrendered. once he surrendered, he went back down to earth and visited the last remaining land that was still raging with war: the earth goddess's territory. there, he found miyuki also leading the forces. she lead every single men and women who were capable to battle to kill the eldest one but learning the truth from the shadaws was the biggest betrayal of all.

before she could even kill him, he killed her first without remorse nor feelings. his stoic face revealed nothing. he stabbed her twice until she was barely hanging by the thread. he dropped his sword and picked her body up. his mist cleared all the body and made them into flowers. as he was walking through the bloody lake, she was looking at him as tears ran down to her cheeks.

"i'm sorry." she croaked.

"i'm sorry for betraying you... but i truly did loved you... i loved you more than you ever know... you gave me happiness. all i ever wanted was to be with you that's why i did it... i wanted to become immortal so i could be with you... but i guess i was the one who got betrayed also." she coughed as blood was now spilling down her mouth.

"i prayed. i prayed to the creator where if he can grant me one wish. i wanted to be reincarnated and be a goddess so i could be with you for the rest of eternity..." with that, she fell limped and sasuke just looked at her and thats when the feelings started to emerged.

he cried helplessly. he called out her name. begging her to come back but she was mortal herself. she died with a smile on her face as sasuke was the one suffering with his feelings going wild. he didnt leave that place until days later when he decided to let her body sank to the bottom of the lake and with one last magic dust, the lake turned clear instead of blood stained from the war and her body vanished.
