Demon of My Dreams (ReVamped)

Chapter 10

Sasuke jumped back with a smirk as Naruto sent a punch his way and missed, nearly losing his balance. "You gotta be better than that, dobe."

"Shut up, stupid teme." Naruto growled.

"Did you know your parents?" Sasuke suddenly asked.

The question threw the blonde off as he was about to lunge forward, instead, actually falling to the ground. "Huh?"

Sasuke rolled his eyes and stood up straight from his defensive position. Clearly the blonde was more clumsy than he realized. So much for them being equal sparring partners. He crossed his arms over his chest. "I said, did you know your parents?"

Naruto stood up, brushing himself off. "Yeah. I knew them for a few years."

Sasuke studied the blonde. "Where did you go after they died?"

Naruto narrowed his eyes. "It's my turn to ask a question."

Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "Then what's your question?"

Naruto pursed his lips together, unable to think of one.

Sasuke smirked. "Exactly. You can ask two questions if you want." His smirk grew larger. "That's if you can think of any."

"Teme." Naruto hissed, glaring at the raven. "Fine."

"So where did you go?"

"I ran away with my bro-" he coughed, almost forgetting he couldn't tell the whole truth to Sasuke. He cleared his throat as Sasuke raised an eyebrow at him. "With my uh, best friend. We escaped deep into the forest, far away from any humans or other demons."

"So why come all the way out here now?" Sasuke's curiosity was piqued as question after question popped into his mind.

Naruto chose to ignore the fact that Sasuke asked a third question. Instead a sad look crossed his face as he remembered the events that led to him running away.

"Me and my friend got into an argument over something really stupid. And I'm not very good with directions so I lost. But then I smelled your food and here we are."

"What did you guys fight over?"

Naruto realized that they probably weren't going to be going back to sparring, so he sat down with a huff, cross-legged. "On who the prophecy was about."

"Prophecy?" Sasuke followed Naruto's lead and sat down in front of him. One arm propped up on his knee. "What prophecy?"

"There's a prophecy that every demon knows." Naruto began. He recalled the story that Iruka told him multiple times. "The Prophecy is a tale written by the Gods. The Gods agreed that Demons and Humans will always be at war together. Only the strongest of each species will survive, for demons, that is the Nine-Tails and for humans, the Uchiha's. The Gods agreed that this will be their fate until the strongest Nine-Tails is born and the strongest Uchiha as well. Together the two will bring about peace. For humans, a boy of ten will carry the Amerestu Sharingan,the eyes of death. For demons. The Nine-Tailed fox of burgundy hay, will be the bearer of life. The two will unite and create life, the first human-demon hybrid."

Sasuke took in Naruto's words, staying silent. He narrowed his eyes at the blonde. "And who do you think the prophecy is about?"

"Me, of course." Naruto puffed out his chest, feeling prideful.

Sasuke quickly stood up, his eyes narrowed further into a deathly glare. "No Uchiha would ever mate with a filthy demon."

Naruto raised an eyebrow, ignoring Sasuke's anger. "The prophecy isn't wrong so of course it'll happen. And weren't you the one with the sharingan?"
