Accidentally Uchiha || stuck in Naruto

Chapter 11 || Corrupted

The cushioned chair under her felt scratchy and uncomfortable, the fabric rubbing against the back of her legs awkwardly as she waited quietly, glaring off into space, consumed with fury at her sudden interrogation.

As much as Ace understood their standpoint, how they were just protecting their village, she couldn't help but seethe. Hating how out of control the situation had gotten.

Naruto was sat beside her in his own uncomfortable chair, his legs swinging idly as he watched the adults sort out their stuff.

Ace had agreed to the jutsu. She knew that if she pushed back again at this point, they would most likely just do it anyways.

"Now if you'll just look here," Inoichi held his hand up in front of her face.

Ace focused her eyes on his fingers, curious as to how exactly the jutsu would be performed. As her dark eyes focused on his pale skin, he clicked his fingers.

And just like that she was asleep. Out cold at only a snap

"Hey! what the hell!" Naruto jumped out of his seat, trying to get to Ace.

The Hokage stepped in, holding him back gently by his shoulder. "It's okay Naruto, this is the best way for Mr Yamanaka to do his work." He reassured, but Naruto was still on edge worrying for his friend.

He had seen the scars up her arm. When he'd asked about them, she'd flinched and shaken her head.

If this blonde haired freak was inside her mind, what if he made her remember what happened?

Shrugging the old man's hand off of his shoulder he crept in closer, not trying to interfere, just getting close enough to be able to intervene if he needed to. There was no way he'd let them hurt Ace.

Inoichi paid him little mind, instead focusing on getting into the girls memories. He had to be careful with a person so small, if he pushed her too hard it could end disastrously.

With a slow intake of breath, he activated his Jutsu.

The Hokage and Naruto watch together. Naruto with a hint of caution behind his expression, and the Hokage with his typical calm demeanor.

All they could do now was wait.

Inoichi found himself standing in the middle of a street, surrounded with soothing lanterns, the firelight within flickering gently to welcome him.

The ground was brick, layed with perfessional care into discreet patterns, the stones themselves were pristine and well taken care of. Hints of moss only sprouting along the very edge, the least traveled paths.

The blonde haired man was surprised, memories being organised in such a way was something he had never experienced before. Shops with signs surrounded him, each leading into a different memory based on the sign.

It was a pleasant surprise how calm Ace's mind was.

The store he had first landed in front of lit up brightly with red and white paint, the Uchiha logo finding it's home on the front visage. The perfect place to start.

He wandered inside carefully, the door opening with ease, leading him into what he could only assume was Ace's apartment.

The girl sat quietly on her couch, surrounded by books and scrolls on various Jutsu and chakra techniques.

She had a small bowl of fruit set on the coffee table in front of her, and was wearing clothes Inoichi had never seen on her before. A large black Uchiha shirt with the typical Uchiha cut, the collar popped up to her chin.
