Chapter One: Exchanging of the Eyes!

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto Shippuden. But, I DO own this story!

What if Kakashi had suffered a serious wound and he couldn't use the Sharingan anymore? What if he decides to give away his own Sharingan…to NARUTO?!

(Takes place right after Team Seven's fight with Zabuza right when they just got into the island with Tazuna the bridge builder.)

"Ugh," moaned Kakashi.

"Oh no, Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura was worried.

"Kakashi-sensei! If you're injured, who's gonna train me?!" yelled Naruto.

"Oh shut up, dobe," muttered Sasuke.

"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!"

"DOBE!"

"WHY I OUGHTA…"

"You 'oughta' leave me in peace," said Kakashi, "Geez, kids these days, a person can't even die in peace."

"Oh no, Kakashi-sensei, don't say that!" said Sakura.

"During that fight with Zabuza…I had exerted myself too much…I burned too much chakra…"

"No, Kakashi-sensei! It can't be that bad!"

"Well, all my tenketsu and chakra pathways are burning like hell. What I'm afraid of is that I can't use chakra lightly anymore…without immense pain to myself. However, I'm pleased to tell you that I can STILL train you."

"YES. BELIEVE IT!" shouted Naruto.

"Wait…before that, I have to see to my own health. Sasuke, take this little rocket outside, and put some chakra into it. It'll fire off, signaling some people."

Sasuke nodded and took it outside.

"Who are you signaling to, Kakashi-sensei?" asked Sakura.

"Oh, some people…but they might not be around to get here fast enough."

Suddenly, a huge blast of chakra wave blew past them. Naruto fell over, and Sakura screamed. Outside, they could hear Sasuke yelp out loud.

"Oops, I forgot to warn about the chakra spike…"

"THAT WAS DANGEROUS, KAKASHI-SENSEI, BELIEVE IT!" shouted Naruto.

"That's…a signal to a few people?! I think everyone within a 5-kilometer radius with basic training could've felt that!" said Sakura.

Sasuke walked in. Naruto took a look at him and fell over laughing. Sasuke's hairdo was blown all over and on end. In addition, he looked like he had a decent scare.

"What the HECK, Kakashi-sensei, I thought I was being attacked by something, or that it was blowing up in my face, or worse!"

Kakashi nodded, "Yes, that seems to happen on the first time…"

Sasuke shouted, "What, you didn't know!? Why didn't you tell us!?"

"Well," Kakashi said, "it was given to me years ago, and I've never had to use it."

Suddenly, the door banged open, and a stranger in a cherry-blossom kimono and a straw hat walked in. The stranger looked around, saw Kakashi, and rushed over, throwing the straw hat away. Naruto gaped. The stranger was a woman, with big emerald eyes, long blond hair tied in a bun that was previously hidden in the hat, a large bust, and a large ring on her left hand.

"Hey, Rin…" said Kakashi, before the woman threw herself into his arms.

"KAKASHI YOU BASTARD! I'VE SEARCHED FOR YOU LONG AND WIDE EVERYWHERE AND YOU ALWAYS KEEP HIDING FROM ME AND NOT LETTING ME FIND YOU. THEN, YOU REFUSE TO SET OFF MY SIGNAL FLARE FOR YEARS, AND WHEN I FINALLY FEEL IT, I HAD ALMOST GIVEN UP HOPE!"

"Yea…well, I'm kinda injured…so…could you get off me please?"

The woman backed off and stared long and hard at Kakashi. She put a finger on his forehead, and then looked into his eye.

"Well? How bad is my condition?"

Rin tutted and turned around, reaching into her pack, saying, "Hmm, I always knew that Sharingan would be the end of you…now I have proof…"

She brought out a little cylinder. Naruto gasped, Sakura screamed, and Sasuke's eyes widened. Floating inside was an eye.

"You've kept it all along?" asked Kakashi.

"Yes, your left eye. It's a simple jutsu that keeps it fresh. The Sharingan has taxed your body too much, and your chakra coils attached to it are spent. I'm afraid the Sharingan in your left eye is now useless to you, because you can't send chakra to use its abilities."

Kakashi asked, "So…what are my choices?"

Rin continued, "You can choose to keep a now worthless-to-you Sharingan, or I could take it out for you and put back your left eye, and reverse what I did years ago."

"Ok, team, outside. I need to talk to Rin alone…" Kakashi told Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke.

Grumbling, they left the room. Immediately, they turned around and put their ears to the door. A shuriken flew through the door, and a voice inside yelled, "I actually meant out of the house, go walk up the trees again."

Given no choice, they went out.

"So, what was that about?" asked Naruto.

"Are you stupid? Kakashi can't use his Sharingan anymore, apparently he got it from someone else years ago with that woman's help…and now it's useless to him!" said Sakura.

"Long as he didn't steal it from the corpse of a dead Uchiha…" muttered Sasuke.

Rin suddenly came out of the house. She looked at the three. "Which of you is Naruto?"

Naruto looked up. "Me, why?"

Rin gazed at him and then said, "Come with me," and went back into the house.

Naruto stared at his friends. Sakura shrugged, and Sasuke didn't care.

Wondering what he had done, Naruto went back into the house.

Sasuke and Sakura had been waiting outside for 10 minutes when the house shook up and down and Naruto's massive voice shouted, "WHAT?!?!?!?!!?!?"

Sasuke stared at the house. Sakura stared at the house.

"What was that about?" wondered Sakura.

"I don't know, and I don't care…" muttered Sasuke.

Sakura suddenly noticed that they were out alone. GREAT! A chance to woo Sasuke! Just as she was about to grab Sasuke from behind, the door to the house banged open. Sakura jumped, afraid she had been caught in the act, and totally flew right over Sasuke, while Sasuke also jumped, and turned around slowly. Sakura slowly picked herself up. Both stared, looked again, stared, rubbed their eyes, stared again, thought they were dreaming, and kept on staring.

Naruto was standing in the doorway, with his forehead protector now worn over his left eye like Kakashi and a slight trickle of blood still coming down from his left side.

Following behind him was Rin.

"Now, the bleeding will stop sooner or later as your body gets used to the new eye, and I've connected all your nerves and chakra to the new eye also. In addition I've kept your old eye just like I did Kakashi's just in case your body continuously rejects the Sharingan…" Rin was telling Naruto.

Sakura screamed, and Sasuke stared dumbly. The dobe got the Sharingan? The pride and birthright of his clan, the Sharingan?! He had no right!!!

"Now wait a minute…How come Naruto gets access to the Sharingan? Where did Kakashi get it from anyways?!"

Rin looked at Sasuke. "Years ago, Kakashi and I were on a team with an Uchiha…Uchiha Obito. Half of his body was crushed on a mission, and he left his left Sharingan eye for Kakashi. I did the transfer that time."

"Yeah," said Naruto, "and it's not like I BEGGED for it! It hurt like hell, BELIEVE IT!"

Something thumped to the ground. All three talkers looked over. Sakura had fainted.

Next Chapter Preview: What becomes of Kakashi? How does Naruto learn how to use the Sharingan? What does Sasuke do in the face of all this? Does Sakura still think Naruto would always lose to Sasuke now?

"So, Naruto, this is how you use it…" said Kakashi.

Naruto concentrated. And concentrated. He snapped.

"SASUKE WHY AREN'T YOU LEARNING HOW TO USE IT TOO?!" he yelled, "INSTEAD OF HANGING AROUND THERE PRETENDING YOU'RE ALL COOL AND ALL THAT!?"

"Because I'm not a dobe like you!" Sasuke shouted back.

"You two be quiet. Sasuke, you come here and practice too…" said Kakashi.

Sakura: So why did I faint again?

CKMo: Don't ask me, although I am the author…

Sasuke: WHY DID YOU GIVE THE DOBE THE SHARINGAN?!?!

CKMo: Thought it'd be funny. Leave a review please and no flames. Thank you. And tell me should I continue it?
