Eh, I liked the idea of it but if no one really likes the story then I'll just stop, which is why I only made it 5k compared to my original plan of 10k. So tell me what you think if I should continue.
Sasuke gains his canon personality later on.
Chapter I: Prologue
As Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto are battling Madara they both feel the sign of defeat as they keep failing to injure the elder Uchiha, but they did not give up hope. Sasuke looks over to his friend who is struggling to get up after taking a very powerful blow from Madara's Truth Spheres, as the blonde hair struggles to get up Sasuke notices Madara going in for a killing blow.
"NARUTO!" Sasuke screams as he gets up and rushes to help his best friend, Naruto seeing Madara panics and fears the end, however as he closes his eyes he felt nothing.
Naruto looks up and sees Sasuke holding Madara and keeping him away from Naruto, shielding him. "Sasuke…" he says now forming tears, due to his senju powers he can sense the life force of Sasuke leave him and move on to the unknown. Sasuke kicks Madara away and falls down; a huge wound in his heart is killing him fast.
"Naruto…defeat him…"
"Sasuke! Don't die, I need you!"
"I can't…beat him…I believe in you…I know you can do it…best friend." he said smiling, a small tear runs down Sasukes cheeks as he closes his eyes for the last time.
'I'm sorry nii-san, but I know that Naruto will bring peace.'
And with that the light closes, never to be opened again, well that's what he thought.
As Sasuke life energy vanishes from the world of Shinboi he is faced with something that suddenly calms him to the brink of not caring about anything else. He opens his eyes and sees a bright light directly in front of him, but that's not what surprises him he sees a man with similar facial features and a smile on his face.
"Hello Sasuke," The man known as Uchiha Itachi says welcoming his little brother to this realm.
"Nii-san," Sasuke respond smiling, all his worried about the war has seemed to vanish and he was ready to move on with his family.
"I'm happy you chose the right path, Sasuke." Itachi says proud of his brother.
"Arigato Nii-san, for everything, I entrusted Naruto to defeat Madara and I know he can do it." Sasuke says still smiling.
"I see you obtained the Rinnegan, how did you pull that off?" he asks surprised.
"It'd be too long to explain, let's just say our ancestor entrusted it to me in order to defeat Madara." he says casually.
As they kept chatting, a greenish aura began circling around Sasuke surprising him, this energy didn't feel like anything he felt when he was in the world of Shinobi. "Seems as if it really isn't your time to be here, good luck Sasuke, enjoy life, meet a girl, fall in love and have many kids." Itachi bids farewell, Sasuke is still shocked by the aura, he was going to say something to Itachi but his body began retracting back into the darkness, away from the light and then…darkness.
In the Unknown
'Where am I?'
"Hm…a child with the combines powers, interesting." a deep unknown voice called out him. 'Who are you?' Sasuke asks confused on what's going on, when he was 'dead' he felt so at peace with Itachi, but now he feels nothing but confusion.
"You have my power, yet you don't even know who I am, Hn. What an ungrateful child you are, but I guess it can't be helped, none of my shrines come from where you once where."
'…'
"Go, I want to see you live in this realm, prove to me that your worth going to a happy place in your time of death." and with that the voice disappeared and once again there was nothing but darkness.
Somewhere else
As Sasuke wakes up again he notices it that he is once again in the realm of the living, the beautiful blue sky was hovering over him, no clouds were shown, he could also hear a river stream going on and birds were chirping.
'Now what?' he thought annoyed on how his death experience wasn't as peaceful as some people make it out to be. As Sasuke gets up he feels a massive pressure on to the back of his head, 'Was I dropped!?' Sasuke rubs the back of his head in agony.
As he looks around he sees that the vast area is mostly a forest, the stream went down for miles and was a very beautiful sight, he would've wished he came here as child, he can imagine all the things he and Itachi could of done together.
As Sasuke casually walks down the stream he sees a Shrine residing on the banks of it. As he approaches it he senses someone behind him. He turns around and sees a young girl with long black wear wearing traditional miko attire, consisting of a white haori with red accents, a red hakama, and a pair of zori with white tabi.
"Hello," Sasuke says trying to get the girl to come to him. The girl known as Akeno, blushes and hides behind a tree trying to avoid Sasukes gaze.
"My names Sasuke, what is yours?" he asks trying to be soft voiced as possible.
"…"
"It's ok, I won't hurt you."
The girl comes out covering her mouth with her sleeve, she was looking at the ground hoping Sasuke wasn't staring at her, "Akeno," she says quietly but is still wary as she does not know Sasuke.
"Hello Akeno-chan, do you live at the Shrine?"
"Yes," she says extremely nervous, Sasuke seeing this goes to try and calm her down it would be strange if someone caught a grown man talking to a very nervous young girl. Sasuke then realized as he grabs her hand it's only a little smaller than his own, his eye widened as he looks down, he is simply wearing black Uchiha attire. Strange thing is, it's the same one he wore as a child. He finally realizes it, his hair was a bit longer and his arms and legs were a bit short but he got it.
'I'm a child!?' he thought shocked, just a few moments ago he was a man on the brink of death, he fought against an immensely powerful warrior who defeated him. Sasuke trying to calm himself down failed to notice the blushing Akeno who is still having her hand held.
"G-gomen..." Sasuke says it wasn't really polite to just grab a girl's hand, especially one you've never met before.
"It's ok…" she says causing him to raise an eyebrow.
"Akeno," Sasuke says suddenly causing her to flinch
"Y-yes?" she asks still covering her face with the sleeve.
"Where are we?" he says seriously.
"Shinto Shrine," she says as if it was obvious to Sasuke who didn't know what she was talking about. Sasuke had a blank expression showing Akeno he didn't know what she was talking about.
"Show me?" he asks smiling, she blushes and nods. Sasuke holds out his hand just to see if she wanted to hold it, which she did. The two began walking towards the Shrine both unaware of the angry Baraqiel hovering and narrowing his eyes at Sasuke. He could feel power coming from him but then again, he was a child so what could he really do.
At the Shrine
As Sasuke and Akeno approach the Shrine he is greeted by what looks like Akeno in the future. Just to be safe, he looked next to him and saw Akeno was still there smiling at the sight of her mother.
"Hoh? Already?" Shuri asked her daughter who had a confused expression, she was talking about how she already attracted a boy at such an age. Sasuke understands what she's trying to say and immediately let's go of Akenos hand causing her frown.
"And what is your name?" she asks nicely.
"Uchiha Sasuke," he says before bowing respectfully, he may have been a strong fighter but he had his manners.
"An interesting name." a voice came behind Sasuke, feeling caught off guard, his instinct told him turn around and reach for sword.
Which was not there!
Everyone looked at Sasuke with confusion, but he didn't notice that, he was still surprised that he was caught off guard. 'For me to be caught off guard while I have sensing powers of the Rinnegan…' he then realizes that he does not have the Rinnegan, he try's sensing the animals and didn't feel a thing. It was natural to sense beings when he had his Rinnegan, and right now, Sasuke did not want to show off any of his powers so he tried playing this one off.
"Hello," Sasuke says bowing.
Well Played.
Sasuke has a curious gaze as he stares at the man with black hair, his beard is also strange in Sasuke's opinion. he had never seen such a thing before. Baraqiel walks over to his wife and Akeno and puts his arms around them. "You see? There mine. Both of them." Baraqiel then narrows his eyes at Sasuke who had a 'what are you talking about?' kind of look.
Shuri giggled and Akeno was confused as well, she didn't know much about relationships her father told her to never to kiss a boy, hug them or hold their hands, which she ignored the last one.
"Where are your parents Uchiha?" Baraqiel asked still weary of Sasuke.
"…" Silence was all that came, he didn't both saying that there dead otherwise they might feel bad for him which he didn't need, he dealt with it already. After a few moments they realized what he was thinking to them but didn't want to actually say it.
"Where do you live?" asked Shuri.
"…"
Yet again silence came, judging by the appearance from the inner cities that you can see from the Shrine, Sasuke could only assume that wherever he was, it was a very modern and well developed area. He didn't want to sound barbaric by saying he came from a place where they don't even wear shoes.
"I see…"
"Oka-sana Otou-san! Can Sasuke live with us?" Akeno asked sweetly, Shuri had another giggle while Baraqiel had his eyes wide open. Unfortunately for the Fallen Angel it was impossible for him to say no to his daughter, he had a better time killing someone then saying no to his daughter.
"It's ok Akeno-chan, I'm sure I can go-"
"Fine," Baraqiel says sighing, but he really wanted was the hug which Akeno was giving him, he couldn't deny it, she looked really happy when she's around Sasuke.
"It's really fi-" he was cut again.
"Can he sleep with me!?" she asks while suddenly the sunny sun was covered by dark grey clouds, the warmness of the air suddenly turned freezing cold, and all eyes are on one duck faced boy.
Baraqiels gaze meant 'if you do anything to her, I'll show you that not even death can save you' Sasuke being who he is matched him with his own gaze that read 'Bring it' but in all Sasuke knew he wouldn't do anything, since he still confused on what he is doing here, might as well accept kindness from others.
He has changed a lot from being the guy who wanted to kill everyone who made his brother suffer, but he learned to accept people and there hospitality. Sasuke would repay them back in his own way, hopefully sooner as he wants to know why he was brought back to life as a child.
"Arigato," he says bowing to the family, Akeno suddenly came out of her shyness normal self and grabbed Sasukes hand, she then took off running without even saying anything to her parents. She was just too happy to say anything, she wanted to express it.
~Back by the River
"Akeno-chan," Sasuke says as they finally approach the river again, he can tell she just wanted to get away from her parents.
"Y-yes?"
*POKE*
Sasuke suddenly puts two fingers on Akenos forehead causing her to fly back and hit the ground; "Ow!" she said rubbing her head. "Why!?" she asked as if she was on the verge of tears
'Crap' Sasuke thought he didn't mean to make her cry or anything it was a simple jester that his brother used to do with him, but he also forgot that he hated it when he did that.
"Do you not like me anymore?" Akeno asked trying to wipe away here tears.
"Uh…" he didn't really know what to say. "I'm sorry Akeno-chan, I still like you." Sasuke said lifting her head up so she could look at him, she blushed and looked away.
"Then why did you poke me?"
"I don't know, I like you, you're my friend Akeno-chan." The personality of a child is starting to get to Sasuke, he seems to be enjoying himself as he never really had an honest childhood.
"Friends don't use honorifics!" she snapped startling Sasuke.
"Ok…Akeno."
She smiled and grabbed Sasukes hand again, "Let's play Sasuke!" while Sasuke didn't want to bother with childish things it looks like it's going to be inevitable.
After a few moments so of silence Akeno decided to break the ice to Sasuke, "Sasuke you like me right?" she asked looking at the ground.
"Yes Akeno."
"Would you still like me if…" nothing came after it.
"If what?" he tried getting it out of her but failed.
"Promise?" she asks turning away from him.
"I promise no matter what." Sasuke sighed at the little girls belief that if she was something he was not, that he would suddenly not like her.
'He'll still like me.' Akeno assured herself. She turned around and closed her eyes, a few seconds later small crow like wings came out of her back surprising Sasuke.
"Do you still like me?" Sasuke was just surprised he once had wings for a while, until Itachi removed the curse mark from him. Except he had bat like wings.
"Yea, why wouldn't I? It's cool seeing you with wings." Sasuke said smiling at her. Akeno became very red but was happy to know Sasuke would accept her for who she.
Hours Later at night
As Sasuke quietly sneaks out a very strong Akenos grasp he wonders off around the rooms looking for a mirror of some sort, as he fails he goes to wonder off to the stream which is still lit up by the full moon. He looks at himself through the water and utters "Sharigan" as he does this the infamous read tomoes form and he stares himself through the water.
'Odd,' he notices his chakra is still there, but his Rinnegan powers seem to be…locked up. That really isn't really a problem he didn't have it for too long but did enjoy using it as best as he could. Sasuke then checked that he could use his E.M.S which indeed worked. He wanted to try out some techniques but he feared his body wouldn't be able to handle any, and that it will be a while for he can re train his body to endure such stressful attacks.
He feels a familiar presence, one that doesn't like him but neutral overall. "Hello Baraqiel-san." Sasuke says to the fallen angel.
"Sasuke-kun, Akeno showed you her wings correct?" he said in a deep voice, Sasuke nodded still wondering what the big deal is about having wings.
"So you accept her as a Fallen Angel?"
Sasuke face read confusion, Baraqiel sighed but made a long explanation of the three factions and how they were created, he also explained the great war and how the world is today because of it.
"So because one person didn't like the way one of his followers thought, he kicked them out and deemed them as unworthy?" Sasuke asks trying to get the logic behind Fallen Angel and Angels. Baraqiel nodded, nothing he could really do about it.
"I'd like to meet this 'God of the Bible' person." Sasuke says narrowing his eyes, he knew what a God meant but he didn't care, where he came from he had the power of a god and was defeated by someone who held more power than he did.
"Well just as long as you're ok with it."
"Why wouldn't I be ok with it?" Sasuke asked taking Baraqiels statement as an insult, as if he was directly being called an ignorant fool.
"Races still don't like each other but there is peace, and that's all that matters."
"So Fallen Angels don't like devils, and Devils don't like Fallen Angels, however no one likes the Angels and they don't like anyone else, that's how it is." he exclaimed.
"You don't seem like an average eight year old, Sasuke-kun." Baraqiel said remembering how he reacted when he surprised Sasuke, he turned around like a warrior would be caught off guard. Sasuke didn't reply, being known as an eight year old is probably the best thing for him right now, since no one would ever interrogate or bother trying to speak with an eight year old.
"I will train you how to defend yourself, my friend Azazel is good at making people strong." Baraqiel said insulting Sasukes pride as an Uchiha, but it didn't show on his face.
"That sounds perfect, arigato Baraqiel-san." Sasuke said still looking at himself, he already dismissed his Sharigan as soon as Baraqiel came it would be bad if he caught him using his most precious weapon.
Sasuke went back into Akenos room and snuggled his way back into his spot which he enjoyed, but he would never admit it. Having a small body is a pretty convenient thing but it could not hold enough energy for Sasuke to fight comfortably so training with this Azazel friend will help gradually.
Few days later in the city
Akeno is currently showing Sasuke around the city, oddly her father let this happen while usually he doesn't like it when she lives the shrine in fear that something would happen but Shuri 'reassured' him that nothing would go wrong.
Sasuke eyes are filled with amazement as he looks around, he had none of this kind of stuff in Konoha. Sasuke really had to face facts that, this world is nothing like his own, he had seen Baraqiel use time type of chakra ability as a demonstration when trying train Akeno. Sasuke had no interest in their abilities, he had his own and he was proud of his own abilities.
Having his brother's eyes was a gift, that's the only thing that keeps him from feeling completely alone in this world, because he has something his brother gave him on his death bed. Sasuke promises to go on the side of good, because he knows that's what Itachi would've wanted, while Sasuke doesn't know which side is good or not he is sure that he will follow the ones that go for peace rather than seeking war.
"Sasuke let's eat over here." Akeno says while tugging his arm, she had been sure not to let go either, if there was one thing her mother taught her, it was to never let anyone else come near Sasuke.
Sasuke nodded and held her hand tightly; he believed that Akeno didn't simply want him to get lost, so she kept being around him. The two walk together looking like brother and sister or in some eyes, lovers, but that wasn't really considered as there only around age eight.
Hours later end of the 'date'
As the day comes to a close the two children approach the Shrine once again but one of them is at unease, ever since they left the city someone has been following them, and Sasuke would confront it but that would mean letting go of Akenos hand.
"Akeno,"
"Yes Sasuke?" she said in a dreamy tone.
"Can you let go of my hand for a few seconds?" he asked nicely.
"No."
"Akeno"
"Yes?"
"Please?"
"No." she said sternly.
"I'll do anything you want, please?" Akeno made a frown and let go of his head,
"You better not talk to other girls!" she threatened; Sasuke had a confused look but nodded.
With the Follower
'Hm, this is too easy, I can go right now and kill the daughter then come for the mother later.' a mysterious figure said as he watches Akeno and Sasuke. He looks around for one second before returning to the sight and notices that the human boy had suddenly vanished.
"What are you doing?" a voice comes behind the man, he turns around and sees the boy staring at him with narrowed eyes, 'What the hell?' the man thinks.
"Hm, I don't know how you got here kid, but good that you're here I can kill you now." the man says before black wings shoot out from his back. Sasukes eyes widened as those are the same wings as Akeno, except the man in front of him has larger ones.
"What are you doing Fallen Angel?" Sasuke asks before swirling his eye into the famous Eternal Mangekyo Sharigan.
The man stares deeply into his crimson eyes, the pattern on them was the strangest thing he has ever seen in his entire life, and then all of a sudden the man saw darkness.
"Who are you?" Sasuke asked forcing the answers out of him.
"Dohnaseek of the Fallen Angels." the man says without a tone.
"What are you doing here?"
"I was assigned to kill Shuri Himejia, as well as her daughter Akeno."
"Why?"
"I was following Kokabiel-samas orders, I do not know why."
And with that Sasuke pierces his hand right through Dohnaseek's heart killing him instantly, he was surprised that he could cast a genjutsu as well as Chidori in this child's body.
'I have to remember this 'Kokabiel.'
Shrine
With that however, came with a cost, as he approaches Akeno who is smiling he feels a rush of pain in the area of his heart, a very unimaginable pain strikes him as he clenches his heart with his right hand. The last thing he can remember before passing out from the intense pain is Akeno screaming his name.
Some time later
A very tired Sasuke wakes up in Akenos room with blankets over him, he could tell hes been sleeping for a long time and has been in the same spot as well. Sasuke looks over to his left and sees a very sleepy Akeno with tear marks all over her face.
"She's been crying you know." Sasuke looks up to see Shuri smiling at the two.
"Shuri-san, how long have I been sleeping for?"
"About a week, she hasn't left you know, she keeps asking when you're going to wake up..."
"I see…"
"Sasuke-kun, who are you really?" she asked figuring out that no one would simply pass out for a week straight.
"I'm a human." he said which was the truth, he really was a human, he just had a bunch of powers that can rival gods.
"Maybe one day you will tell me." she said in a neutral tone, she then walked out the room telling Baraqiel something. He came in the room and gave Sasuke a nod, who nodded in return. The two adults left the room to talk about their own matters. Their own matters being Sasuke.
Sasuke looks to Akeno and wraps his arms around her, he feels a little guilty making her worry for an entire week but he couldn't help it, he didn't know he would pass out from using such techniques. He rubs her back and lifts her up causing a disturbance in her sleep. She slowly wakes up but when she realizes it is Sasuke holding her she immediately starts crying again.
"Sasuke!" she said loudly as she pours her emotions into Sasukes chest, he knows what it's like to lose someone at such an early age, but luckily for him he wasn't gone forever.
"What happened!?"
"I-"
"You could of died!"
"Akeno," Sasuke says using his old manly voice, her eyes widened at his tone before calming down. "I'm fine, I'm sorry for making you worry as I had no idea such a thing would happen."
"I can't say that won't happen again, but as for now, I must go train." Sasuke said with a voice that left no objections. She tried reaching him but failed, he went on his own to go and handle his endurance a lot better so he stops passing out after a week from using only two of his abilities.
Training
Sasuke approaches a plain field far away from the Shrine, he feels no presences and assumes it is safe to unleash some his powers. He activates his E.M.S and begins charging charkra throughout his body. 'Susanoo,' he says as the purple skeleton begins forming around his child body, he tries to hold it in its incomplete state but fails miserably and falls to the ground. He begins breathing heavily and knows he should instantly stop.
Feeling tired, he lies on the grass and once again has taken a very long slumber.
Later that night
As Sasuke wakes up he notices a crescent moon shining in the night, his mind also drifts to a very worried Akeno who is probably feeling sad that her companion is not with her.
Feeling his energy a bit refreshed he decided to test out on some minor techniques, ones that wouldn't kill his body if he tried using them.
"Chidori Nasaki," Sasuke says before blue lighting emits from his arms and hits the surround area. "Chidori Senbon," small senbon like needles coated with lighting began emitting from the palm Sasuke was chagrining energy into, feeling as if his lightening techniques are still usable he decided to walk back to the Shrine, hopefully Akeno is sleeping or not to worried.
Sasuke begins walking towards the Shrine but something unnerving catches his attention, out on the other side of the hill spawned red circles of magic which lit up the night sky. Curious, Sasuke walked up towards the circle, and out of nowhere two figures emerged. Both of the figures were very young females, around Sasukes age, one had very long red hair and green eyes as the other had short black hair with violet eyes.
"Sona-chan this is going to be amazing! We'll be living here when were old enough to join high-school!" the crimson haired one said to her friend.
"Hm. It seems so, it looks nice from up here." the black haired one said. The two then notices Sasuke who is staring at them with a very uneasy look, to Sasuke two young girls just appeared out of thin air and that weird red circle may have been used to somehow summon them.
"Hello cutie!" the young girl known as Rias said to Sasuke who had the same expression, "Would you like to join my peerage, I can see you as a very powerful Queen." She said smiling at the idea of having a queen as she currently has no one in her peerage yet. Both the young devils could feel the power of the young child, it surprised them that a human can emit such power.
'Me? A queen?' Sasuke took that as a joke rather than an insult to his pride as a man.
"What is your name?" the young girl known as Sona asked.
"Uchiha Sasuke," he says with pride in every letter.
"Hello Sasuke, my name is Rias Gremory and this is my best friend Sona Stiri."
"Hello," he says politely.
"So would you like to become my queen?" Rias asked with sparking eyes
No thank you." Sasuke knows what a peerage is, Baraqiel also explained a few basic things about the races.
"W-Why?" Rias asks stunned that someone refused her of all people.
'I suppose it would be bad if I told them I live with Fallen Angels.' he concludes.
"I don't want to give up my humanity for someone else." he states causing Rias to scoff and Sona to understand what he is trying to say, becoming a devil would meaning being accepted a an evil being, plus Sasuke would be abandoning the other two factions as whole by becoming something they both despise together.
"You'll be happy with me." she promises
"I'm happy right now, but perhaps in the future we will come again." and with that he waves goodbye to the two devils who are both seemingly interested in the boy. Both the girls had the thought that they would achieve him and not the other.
With Akeno
As a lonely Akeno stared into the moon she wondered where her beloved friend could of gone, she was starting to think it was her fault he kept leaving and trying to avoid her as much as possible, which made her feel sad. The idea of her smothering him, or being too attached or just simply annoying him to no ends made her really think if that is the reason why he constantly leaves to go to his 'training'.
She hears footsteps come into her room and before her stands Sasuke who is looking at her with an unreadable gaze, "Sasuke," she says smiling at his presence.
"Hey Akeno." he says casually before jumping into bed, even if they were simple lighting attacks, they drained him to the point of exhaustion.
Sasuke patted the spot next to him prompting Akeno to come and rest alongside him, "Come Akeno, I can't sleep without you." he said happily. Akeno formed a smile and eagerly jumped into bed next to Sasuke, she snuggled in close going to her favorite spot and rested her head on his shoulder.
Next few days
As the next few days go by Sasuke get extremely bored with nothing to really do, Akeno has her own private lessons with her mother and father for training as well as learning about the history of the world. Sasuke always in the morning sweeps and cleans the Shrine which usually is a job for Shuri, who enjoys doing it, she doesn't have proof its Sasuke but she knows. She believes she is the one who should fix up the shrine and not Sasuke, but she hadn't seen him clean it, as whenever she wakes up, its already clean and if she tries to confront him about it, he is sleeping warmly with Akeno, who is buried underneath his arms.
She couldn't really be upset over his jesters to help out, she knew he was a boy with lots of manners and respect to those who show him hospitality. Even if she treats him like family he still feels as a guest, so he tries to keep himself a respectful as possible, it wouldn't look so good if he did something that went against these kind people.
Sasukes training wasn't due for another few days which annoyed him, he had his own training but could only use a few attacks then simply have to give up in fear of passing out and not being able to wake up for a while, or even possibly longer than that.
As he looks into the sky he notices it's looking a little to blue, "Katon: Ryūka no Jutsu" (Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique) Sasuke says before a torrent of flame came rushing out his mouth and into the sky, the cloud began to for thunder ones and Sasuke could guess that in this world the weather is much more sensitive, which worked greatly for Sasuke.
He wondered how his life is going to be in this world with Angels, Devils and Fallen Angels.
(A.N)
So tell me what you guys think, I only made this 5k because I wasn't sure if it was a good idea or not, if people like it then I will continue but I haven't seen many Sasuke in dxd stories only about one really, which was discontinued. So if you want to review about how it went so far that'd be nice, otherwise if no one really likes this story ill stop.
Sasuke gains his canon personality later on
Till next time.
