The Uzumaki Heir

Prologue

"You were screaming in your sleep. What were you dreaming about?"

"She tricked me. That little bitch."

"What? Sasuke, who are you talking about? What happened?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Come on, it's just one time."

"What the f*ck is wrong with you??" Sasuke shouted, his teeth gritted.

"What? You don't want me? I'll teach you the meaning of wanting." Karin said, rubbing herself at him.

"You're pathetic." Sasuke deliberately said.

His voice echoed through the walls of the cave. Kumogakure was another bothersome task Tobi had given them charge of; they would capture another tailed beast, and they would do it discreetly.

By the word discreet, it appeared Karin had something in planned. She was so predictable. Karin did the most ghast thing of dragging him into a cave knowing the rest of Taka was asleep. Sasuke did not fear any woman taking advantage of him, but this one took him by surprise.

How clever.

Karin Uzumaki, the girl who risked her life more than twice.

If she thought he would be the same boy who saved her ass from the fangs of a wild boar, she was clearly mistaken. Sasuke was clearly a different man now---he was strong, and his past taught him everything he knew from now on.

He was hell-bound. Nowadays many people had looked down to him as a demon---something Sasuke didn't really take offensively. He saw his face sketched on wanted posters and smirked upon the words: WANTED: SASUKE UCHIHA, DEVIL OF THE FIRE COUNTRY. DEAD OR ALIVE.

Dead or alive, huh? He thought to himself, crossing the borders wearing a usual plain robe. But that was okay. He'd teach these people especially the Nations the true definition of death once war was upon them---they wouldn't even see it coming.

Everything was going accordingly to what was planned.

Sasuke would capture the jinchūriki of the eight-tails. The man who called himself Killer B. According to legends, he was not as attentive as the Raikage and acts like a fool. Sasuke cocked his head. Fools died easily. That was his code. Nevertheless, the mission must be done as soon as possible.

"Who's more pathetic??" Karin chuckled derisively. "The one who's standing in front of you that only wants to help you, or the person who killed his brother for no reason?"

Sasuke's claws quickly caught Karin's neck. He pinned her against the wall, his nails digging deeply into her skin.

Karin groaned.

"Don't make me regret I didn't finish you."

"I w-won't."

"Say you're sorry." Sasuke pressed harder. "Say it!"

Sasuke's eyes blazed as he saw how Karin cherished her life. Days passed, he saw how humans were nearly as pathetic and poorly as the villagers that walked inside their houses as if nothing was happening. When you're ordinary, there was no place for you here. Only death.

Forgive me, Sasuke. Maybe next time.

"I-I'm s-sorry!"

Karin dropped into the ground. She coughed terribly, her hands clasping around her neck. 

What did just happen?

Sasuke brought his liquor into his lips again. One of these days, Itachi's name was like a strange figure. It was as if he had been erased from history the same way Madara did. A mist that had gone out from time.
