BORUTO ALTER: NARUTO NEXT GENERATIONS

YOUR FATHER'S JUTSU...!

BORUTO

SACHI YAMANAKA.

Short, blonde hair bobbed against her forehead, framing frantic light blue eyes as a desperate gaze peered ahead. There was only one thing on her mind.

Shota.

Sachi clasped her hands together tightly, sweat making palms slick to the touch. She was in an abandoned home found choked between two crossing streams.

Kawa no kuni..

The land of Rivers.

The young kunoichi released a steady beacon of chakra.

If you're in danger.. or if you think Konoha is after you.. come to the Land of Rivers. I will be there. I will sense you.

Shota's parting words before all this began thrummed within Sachi's mind. He loved her. They loved each other-

Sachi's senses began to calm.

I've been running for almost two days.. but I'm safe now. I'm here. I trust Shota. More than anything.

The home she hid within was built of wood, with exposed windows on every wall. A doorway, broken, spilled into the woody area outside. From cuts within the roof sunshine splashed, leaving warm patterns that crossed Sachi's eyes along with the thoughts that raced behind them.

In the silence between now and fate, Sachi found herself thinking about the interrogation.

Inadvertently, she shook. Sachi suddenly remembered the headband still warming a cold forehead as guilt tunneled through her body.

Two Konoha nin were killed. Shota.. he promised no one would die.

He said that this would help Konoha in ways it refused to help itself- using old Uzumaki techniques to fuel new medical technology.. to save lives!

Sachi shuddered.

The Death God scrolls.

Scrolls that, like the rest of the village, were warded behind a complex spell of chakra that only the barrier team knew of. The chakra inscriptions changed monthly.. However, Sachi had an innate ability.

Her sensory jutsu seemed to be able to decode chakra she felt. She understood the components of most jutsu, and while she couldn't perform the jutsu she experienced, she at least could record it, and knew how to replicate it. This was a skill that only Shota knew of.

Which is why when he asked for her help..

I wanted him to value me. To love me. He.. Shota isn't evil. I didn't think there would be any ha-

Sachi's emotions exploded as a familiar chakra suddenly stepped through an empty doorframe. She nearly leapt from her hiding place, smiling as her blue eyes locked onto an angular, handsome face shrouded by dark hair.

Shota smiled back softly. His skin was fair, smooth and unblemished, save for the red circles underneath his eyes. His pupils were dark brown- brooding and intelligent. As Sachi ran to him he pulled her close, caressing her head as she softly began to cry.

"I'm so glad you're safe," Shota whispered. They separated for a moment. Sachi looked up at Shota, tears falling from his eyes. She pulled his face down to hers, wiping his tears as she kissed him softly.

"They..didn't seem to pursue me as much as I expected. Sai must've held them back." Sachi said almost neutrally.

The shock of meeting Shota again.. after all of this.. it made it seem almost as if the last two days weren't real. But now that he was here-
