The Path not Taken
by: Nanaka
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, nor do I make any money from this story.
Warnings: Contains some spoilers. No lemons but I’ll try and put in a few limes, some yaoi. This is an Alternate Universe (AU) fic
Summary: Everyday we make decisions that govern the outcome of our future. Some are small, like deciding weather to drink milk or orange juice, and others are big, like deciding weather or not to kill someone. So if we were to change one major event in history what kind of effect would it have on the outcome of life as we know it. Would the effects be insignificant, or would they be enough to create a universe almost a complete opposite of the one we know and love.
Chapter Six
(Sasuke)
We’ve returned home from Wave and we’re back to doing meager low-level missions. I am currently heading towards the hospital where my mother is. I don’t know why she’s there for father wouldn’t talk about it. He seemed to be thinking something over and wouldn’t stop looking at me.
I don’t think the baby was born yet, mothers due date is in less than a month. Of course the child could have been born premature, and if it had died I wouldn’t be surprised if dad didn’t acknowledge it.
“Kasan.” I say softly as I enter the room. Mother is siting in a chair looking out the window, still very much pregnant. “Kasan it’s me. Are you ok?”
She doesn’t move as I come up next to her and put my hand upon her shoulder. She just continues to look out the window. I stand next to her for a few minutes before going to look for a doctor who can tell me what’s going on.
It didn’t take me long to find someone. Apparently mother had fallen into a deep depression and had withdrawn into herself, and they were no longer sure if they could ever pull her out of it.
I head off to find Naruto, he’s probably upset that I left him alone with Sakura. Traveling through the trees I find him and Sakura still where I left them only now there are three kids with them and some ninjas from Sand who seem to be causing problems. When the guy moves to hit the kid he’s holding I quickly throw a rock hitting him in the wrist.
“What are you bastards doing in our village.”

It’s been several days since I started traveling towards Konoha. The day after we first started traveling Elora decided to try and teach me the jutsu that would let me ‘see’. The technique first consisted of me merging my chakra with the natural energies around me which I then had to create a pathway for it to the part of my brain that controls sight. Heedless to say my first attempt was fruitless.
Elora was patient in instructing me, telling me that I should center the start of the pathway in the back of my eye sockets since that was the more natural area and was already connected to the proper portion of my brain.
It was two days before I finally got the pathway right, it was instantaneous. My vision went from black to a light grey before I passed out three seconds later. Elora said it was because the chakra energies weren’t focused when the connection was made and that my brain had over exerted itself trying to process too much information in too short a time.
She said that, unfocused, the chakra energies were sending my brain not only a 360 view of the surrounding area but a view of myself as well, and from different angles heights and other differences. Almost like every particle of chakra energy had a 360 view that it was trying to relay to my brain.
She assured me that with time and practice I would eventually be able to see fine, and that this jutsu was how her species got around before they became bonded. She also said that as soon as our bond was stronger that I’d be able connect with her mind in order to see through her eyes.
Now, several days later, I’ve learned to better focus the chakra energies to the area in front of me. Though I’m still getting use to understanding what it is I’m seeing for everything is just different shades of grey with no definitive detail.
Also our bond is now strong enough that I can see through her eyes. Which has made traveling much easier. I’ve even started running and physical training again without worrying about hitting anything.
I also found out that she had painted my nails a hideously bright pink. We argued for a few hours before I consented to her painting them a deep red color. I would have preferred them not to be painted but she’s better at arguing than I am. Almost had me convinced pink was a good color.
I’ve also instructed Elora on how to bring out the Sharingan. She was very thrilled to learn how and wouldn’t shut up the entire day.
I still have a long way to go before I get home to Konoha. I can only hope that Sasuke is going to be fine without me, and will be fine when I leave. I’ve resined myself to the knowledge that I cant try and protect him from danger the rest of his life. He’s in training to be a ninja and most likely has become a genin since I left.
I can’t protect him anymore, and I hate to think that he’ll get hurt, but that’s the life of a ninja. Pain is inevitable.
TBC...
Nanaka: *sniff* No one reviewed my last chapter. *pout* Nobody loves me... everybody hates me... guess I’ll go eat worms! HA! I don’t plan to update again unless I get at least one review.
I know it was a short chapter (shortest I’ve done yet) but I didn’t feel like writing the whole scene with the sand nins, probably would have if I felt anyone truly liked this story.
Also it took me forever to come up with a way to describe the jutsu Itachi is trying to learn to allow him to see. So if it confused you in any way, sorry, it’s the best explanation I could come up with, without causing my head to explode.
