    Summary

    His mother told him the old stories.
    That Amaterasu breathed them fire and his flames bled black into their hair.
    Sister Tsukuyomi watched their journeys in the night, and her white eye painted them pale.
    And Susanoo, the last of the three kin, threw aside his armour and sword and granted Uchiha the right to call upon his shield.

     

    and

     


    -Sasuke faced the beast of black flame and ire and asked: "did you never think of the future?"

     
    I never had the opportunity.

    “Is this your opportunity then?” Sasuke asked it, bleeding from his eyes and wounds as his body tore itself apart forever. “Is this your punishment or mine?”

      “Really?” Kakashi asked, uncharacteristically chipper given how revolting the conversation was. “That’s the reason?”
      “Kami, how are you sane?” Yamato asked, flinching back.
      Itachi tilted his head, looking between Kakashi and Yamato suspiciously. He asked, a little timid, “you...are sane?”
      “What’s a little psychotic break among friends?” Kakashi asked, going so far as to smile.
      “You all are getting psychiatric aid after this,” Tsunade promised, “all of you.”

    To be accepted and loved...

    Summary

    Sasuke sat in rain, the clouds rumbled loudly overhead with lightning flashing in the distance. “You’re showing me an alternate lifetime.”
    Yes.
    “Why?”
    Amaterasu lifted its head, made of black fire. It sighing loud and hot like tectonic plates moving, lava-spewing as the planet groaned. It said with a crackle of thunder: The lands tore themselves apart. Corpses rose and fought against the living. A man’s madness led to the destruction of the world, and the moon turned red in eternal sleep.
    Amaterasu said as the flames lashed against its severed front limb. I can show you the end of the world.

     

    Look up, Amaterasu said, see the Eternal Tsukuyomi.
    Sasuke gazed up at the moon, red with a perverse eye of constant spirals. He asked, with a fractured voice and shaking lungs, “what is that?”
    The end of all things said the single purple eye. The reason I am here.

    Summary

    After the chunin exams, Shikamaru finds himself with nothing to do and yet, for perhaps the first time, craving something to do that might help Konoha in her time of need. He's not the only one doing such things, however, and somehow finds Sakura and a new friendship.

    Only, the new friendship makes Shikamaru realise just how far out of reach Chouji and Ino have both fallen. Sakura urges him to reach out to them, but can Shikamaru fix what time has done?

    Summary

    Sasuke was consumed with hatred because his family was killed. His entire family, not a single person left alive except him and their killer. It was enough to drive someone insane, or into the arms of the first maniac promising him enough power for revenge.

    Instead Sasuke finds a little baby Uchiha on a meaningless mission and leaves Konoha for a vastly different reason.

    Summary

    "Isn't he just beautiful?"

    "Yea..."

    "Wait, who are you talking about?"

    "I was talking about Gaara, what about you?"

    "I was talking about Naruto."

    "That's a relief. At least we won't be fighting over just one. We each get our own."

    "Yep."

    Or;

    Gaara and Naruto each possess a tailed beast. They are what people call Jinchūriki. Someone who holds a tailed beast inside them. It's hard for those kinds of people to find someone who will love them because they're so feared. Thankfully, Rock Lee and Sasuke are not like everyone else.

    Summary

    Since before he could even remember, Gaara had heard the sound of the howling wind in the back of his mind. He always wished he could find the person on the other end of that sound, that elusive being who might love him for who he was.

    All his life, Naruto had heard the sound of drifting sand in his head. A sound the Third warned him might indicate a ninja from another village. Naruto didn't care. No matter where his soulmate was, or who, he would find them. He was certain they would be the closest soulmates ever. Definitely.

    Summary

    But then while she's browsing a fruit stand a peculiar yellow blur slams into her causing her to knock down the whole booth of produce smashing into the floor. She glances up and Minato Namikaze the fucking yellow flash glances back gaping as if he wasn’t expecting her to fall.

    Sakura glances back to the fruit seller who is not amused as he hisses,

    “This-this yield of fruits is ruined! You owe me 50,000 ryo girl!”

    And as Minato looks at her incredulously she starts to think ah, maybe i should take this weird dead people kekkei genkai stuff more seriously.

    Cause well, Sakura can see ghosts. It's not something she dwells on.

    until now

    Summary

    “Sakura-chan,” Kakashi said again, this time softer—gentler. She could hear the shift in his tone, the one he used when he realized he might’ve been too harsh the first time and was trying to ease you into feeling safe again. “You know you can tell me anything, right?”

    She bit her lip.

    She couldn’t tell him the truth. Not that she’d followed an older squad. Not that she’d spied. That was a huge violation. She’d get lectured—or worse.

    But she had to say something.

    Sakura feels like she’s falling behind the others. What will it take to catch up?
