Sequel to "Karma for my past mistakes" When an Uchiha has known love, then loses that deep love, it is replaced by an even stronger hate that changes them...

Naruto, mistreated despite all he's done for his village, is interrupted when he attempts to leave his wretched life. Everyone finally sees the pain behind the face of the hyperactive goofball, and Naruto must choose between the village that never accepted him and his own life. I don't own Naruto. May be cursing.

READ "IN SPITE OF IT ALL" BOOK ONE FIRST. It's been several years since Naruto's disappearance. Everyone gave up on looking for him. But when a suspiciously familiar chakra flare appears off the border of Fire Country, they all are reminded of the boy who left. This one surge of chakra not only attracts the attention of those who believed they would never see him again, but also those who wish to make it their own. They never thought they'd see him again. But perhaps, some things are better off lost. I don't own Naruto, or the art in this story. Most certainly will be cursing.

_______&&__&&&_____

An argument that left Naruto feeling broken. An accident filling Sasuke with regret. Hopefully it's not too late. *Warning: This is a BoyXBoy love story! If you don't like yaoi, don't read it. Has suggestive language. *Disclaimer: I do not own any rights to any of the characters from Naruto. This is simply a fanfic made for fun.

Explanation is given in 1st chapter.
