Hey it's Gold Testament again. It's been two chapters and now people have started placing their votes on who they want in the harem which can only have six or seven, and I might make it a Naruto/Yugao fic just for Kyomaru-kun who wanted Yugao to be part of the harem.
Now here's the ones currently pick and how many votes they have.
Hotaru-2
Ino-2
Temari-1
Yugito-1
Hana-1
Karin-1
Amaru-1
Fem. Haku-1
Tayuya-1
Guren-1
Ayame-1
Anko-1
Koyuki-1
Shion-1
You know I think I just might drop the harem to five and make the full amount of women six, and please do remember those with more votes get to be in the harem.
P.S. I don't own Naruto.
Now ON WITH THE CHAPTER.
Sakura's Stupidity, Sasuke's Rage, and Kyuubi
Sasuke woke up from having that nightmare again about Konoha in flames and all of his friends killed by him. He was wondering if these nightmares were EVER going to end when he heard the door to his room open. He would probably be happy that someone from the rookie 12 would visit him just as long as it wasn't Sakura just so he could get any information on Naruto.
Unfortunately his prayers of a non-Sakura visitor were unanswered as the pink haired banshee was standing there with a bento obviously made by her, but maybe he could get the info he wants out of her.
"Hey Sasuke-kun how are you feeling?" Sakura asked as she walked over to his bedside.
"I'm feeling ok Sakura just really tired from a reoccurring nightmare I've been having." Sasuke replied.
"Hey Sakura do you know how Naruto's doing?" Sasuke asked really wanting to get the information he wanted.
"Who cares how that loser is he'd be better off dying in his hospital bed, and if he is alive he'll lose everything he has for hurting you!" Sakura said without thinking.
"Sakura Naruto's our teammate, yet you're treating him like shit why?" Sasuke said highly irritated.
"Naruto's a loser who has no right to live, and he always gets in the way of us not to mention everyone hates him. Plus I heard he's a monster." Stated the know it all banshee.
"Monster…MONSTER YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AT THE VALLEY OF THE END NO ONE DOES EXCEPT ME AND NARUTO SO WHY DON'T YOUR OR ANYONE ELSE. Just ask me what happened and I'll tell you even though it's a story I'm not proud of." Sasuke said after calming down from showing his rage.
"W-Well what did happen there Sasuke-kun?" Sakura asked scared of her beloved.
"Well when Naruto finally caught up with me I was standing on my ancestor's head while Naruto was standing on the first's head. Naruto was trying to talk me into coming back how I was hurting you, but I didn't care in the least all I wanted was power to kill Itachi. It was then I turned and showed Naruto that half the curse mark covered my face and my eye was black with a yellow iris. I kept provoking him until he was literally trying to knock some sense into me, and I wanted him to fight me. Until I charged at Naruto with a Chidori and he defended with a Rasengan he wouldn't fight me seriously at least he didn't until AFTER I shoved a Chidori into his chest-at that Sakura gasped-yes Sakura I did try to kill Naruto, and the things that sicken me to the core were that I enjoyed thrusting my Chidori plus I was killing him to gain power because he is or probably after that was my best friend." Sasuke said telling most of the story
"U-Unbelievable you actually tried to kill him Sasuke-kun what happened next?" Sakura asked incredibly curious.
"Well when I still had my hand in his chest the same red chakra you saw him use against Neji and the same chakra I saw him use against Gaara flared around him only I saw him grow claws and fangs and his eyes turned red with slitted pupils. He grabbed me by the wrist and pushed me away and our fight began anew, but this time he had the upper hand because somehow he was faster even though I had been using the curse mark since before I struck him with my Chidori and not even my sharingan could keep up with him until it gained the final tomoe. After that I was able to block and counter every one of his blows, but then the red chakra was bubbling out of his stomach, it lifted him up, and he punched me in the face putting some distance between us, and the chakra was forming a kind of cloak around him in the shape of a fox making him even more powerful." Sakura was even more shocked from that information.
"After getting a good thrashing I was taking the curse marks power to the second stage turning my skin dark, giving me claws and fangs, longer lighter hair, and black eyes around my sharingan. After Naruto began another attack a hand-like wing grew from my back protecting me and threw Naruto into the first hokage's ankle, then we powered up our best jutsu and jumped toward each other. Right as our attacks were about to hit Naruto held back a lot of his power so I wouldn't be hurt, and only lessen the damage from my Chidori. After that he thought I was unconscious and picked me up and started carrying me to Konoha, but he was far too injured and suffering from extreme chakra exhaustion and began losing consciousness until Kakashi came and caught him then he carried us both home." Sasuke finished.
"THEN THAT MEANS THE BAKA'S AS MUCH A MONSTER AS GAARA!" The banshee howled irritating Sasuke.
"Sakura I'm going to tell you a huge secret I heard from Itachi about Naruto." Sasuke said.
"What secret?"
"Well you how the academy said that the fourth died killing the Kyuubi well I always thought it was fishy that the fourth hokage despite being a genius could kill a biju a being made entirely out of chakra, so when I talked to Itachi and my mother about my suspicion they were shocked and I could actually see worry and fear in my brothers eyes." Sasuke said.
"What's this got to do with that monster of a baka?" Sakura asked angering Sasuke more.
"Itachi told me that the academy lied to us and in reality the fourth hokage didn't kill the Kyuubi but sealed it in an infant that was born that very night, and remember when Iruka told us all Naruto's birthday is October 10th?"Sasuke said hoping Sakura actually had a brain
"Wait you mean Naruto has the Kyuubi sealed in him so this has to be why all the adults hate him." Sakura said as she came to a revelation.
"Yeah at the time I didn't believe him, but during the fight with Naruto I saw a burning red silhouette of the Kyuubi when the red chakra was flowing around Naruto and the fox cloak made of the chakra proved it Naruto's been protecting us from the most powerful demon in existence." Sasuke said feeling sorry for his best friend.
"But if that's the case then why keep it secret from the younger generation?" Asked Sakura surprised by everything.
"Mom then told me that all the adults who knew wanted to kill Naruto to end the Kyuubi so the third made a law to keep our generation from knowing under penalty of the big mouths death in order to try and give Naruto a normal life, but from what Itachi then told me that plan backfired." The last semi-loyal Uchiha said.
"What do you mean Sasuke?"
"Sakura Itachi told me that Naruto had to be protected by anbu constantly because the villagers and many shinobi would attack him. He's had many assassination attempts on his life and beating throughout his entire life especially the attempt I made." The sad Uchiha replied.
"But if that's true then why does he always smile?" The crybaby of team 7 asked.
"My guess is it's just a mask to distract everyone from his pain, loneliness, and burden. In fact I bet that a lot of our academy teachers were holding back his education out of hate for the Kyuubi in order to better kill Naruto. Sakura the instant Naruto and I are out of the hospital I'm going to try to be a better teammate, best friend, and brother to Naruto." Sasuke said resolve burning in his eyes.
"As will I Sasuke-kun. We'll both make sure Naruto is never lonely again. It's the promise of a lifetime." Sakura said with the same resolve as Sasuke.
How was this chapter everyone. I know that Sasuke talked a lot, and he and Sakura found out about the fox earlier than they should have, but my story is a different branch from many like this little spoiler about Naruto already knowing that the council ordered the extermination of the Uchiha clan. I wanted Sasuke to want to help Naruto more before the knucklehead is forced to leave the village. Anyway keep voting for the harem, and be on the look out for chapter 4.
