Strong like an Uchiha

chapter 39

Sasuke stood still, he felt as if his feet were glued to the floor

The village or his daughter

His brain immediately went to different scenarios, should he choose his daughter, the village would hate and hunt down both of them, if the rest of the villages were to find out of his betrayal , they are sure to execute them both. Naruto would be so disappointed, he would loose all hope in Sasuke which would break Sasuke's heart greatly, sarada would hate him more than she already does and Sakura would come for his head.

However if he chose the village, he would have to fight against his daughter, hunt her down , bring her to her knees and capture her, if not him then he would hear of a person who slayed his daughter and can do nothing but accept the fate of it all. He would be in a fight with his own blood ...as heart clenchingly painful as that sounded, Sasuke couldn't bring himself to turn against the village

Slowly lifting his gaze to his youngest, his princess ...his enemy .                   

Sasuke made his decision

"I cannot allow any harm to come to the village" his voice lacked emotion, his face blank and his stance strong

The girl's face mirrored his...blank

" I truly can't say I'm surprised, just a little disappointed. I hope you understand that as we stand here you and I are as of right now enemies"

Sasuke nodded his head

Sayuki's cold expression melted into a full blown smirk

" That also means that the village is my enemy...I hope you understand that I'm coming after sarada and Sakura and I don't plan on having any mercy"

Sasuke's eyes widened, 'what?'

He didn't want to take it into context but that sounded as if you planned to truly hurt them...or worse

"Do you truly plan to hurt your own family? Do you not have any remorse or love for either?"
Sasuke asked

"Yes and no" sayuki answered, all playfulness gone

"I plan to do more than just hurt them , but you have to wait a bit to find out, and no I don't care for either of them nor do I have any guilt towards that statement, plus , who ever said I considered them family?"

"Now I would absolutely love to stay and chat but I've got a plan and I have to finish what I started, so tell the village, that I'll be seeing you all very soon"

Sayuki said before she disappeared into thin air, without a trace

It was useless trying to find her by now, Sasuke knew she was faster than most

'she declared war on the leaf village, she plans to bring harm and death on both the village and what's left of the Uchiha clan... I couldn't stop her, I couldn't deliver her from the darkness and now I have to fight her'

Sasuke bitterly thought

With a deep sigh, he decided it was best to go to the village.

—

"You, what?!!"
The former hokage yelled with a slammed fist on the desk

Sasuke had his eyes closed in thought, barely paying attention to the world around him

"Grandma Tsunade calm down, atleast now we know what directive to take, because of Sasuke we can now confidently say she is a threat to the village"
The current hokage said in a monotone voice, something that was quite unlike him.

He had a lot of thoughts running through his head and he couldn't help but feel pity for his friend
'i wonder what he's thinking about'

The worried friend thought before a sudden movement pulled him out of his thoughts

"I have to go address this to Sakura and sarada"

"We have to keep this on the down low, we can't have everyone knowing about this, it will cause a lot of hatred for the Uchiha and might call upon unwanted ruckus" Tsunade said confidently
She may no longer be hokage but that didn't mean she didn't have a procedure, one that was meant to be taken seriously, even after years of her ruling has come to an end.

" I can't believe it, it's the truth Sayuki is now our enemy." A devastated Sakura muttered

The Uchiha house was once again filled with tension.

"She couldn't be help or rather refused to accept help, so now we have to stop her." Sarada's distant voice spoke
"But we can't ... I know she wasn't the best sister or daughter but you understand that once the village declares her a threat , you'll be taking her head on."  Sakura declared

Silence filled the room once more

"I'll do it" sarada suddenly said, breaking the silence that suffocated them

"I'll bring her back" she said this time as if trying to convince herself

" You can't, we don't know the extent of her strength " Sasuke muttered

"That simply means I'll have to work harder, I'll have to get stronger and amidst wanting to become hokage I'll save my sister, I'll bring her back."

"Sarada.." Sakura was cut off when sarada slammed her fust in the table
"I don't care, I've gone far too long thinking I knew her , I've faced so much embarrassment thinking I could befriend her but my eyes are open, I won't take that approach any longer , from this day on, Sayuki Uchiha is my enemy ."

Sasuke and Sakura shared a concerned look

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"You know I've taught a lot of pupils before but none where like you."

Orochimaru mused

"Of course not, I'm not an idiot and I'm not your pupil either" the cold voice of the young Uchiha rang

This surprised orochimaru

" Your not.. then why are you here?"

Sayuki turned her head to face him
"The village was always wary of you, so it would make sense for me to follow you, however that's just a disguise , I don't plan on staying with you nor do I need your assistance to becoming stronger. You see the village will hunt you down hoping to capture me but I'll be nowhere to be found"

Instead of infuriating the snake, he simply chuckled

"You truly are like nothing I've seen. So my helping was a simple way to make them look the other direction was it?" Letting out a sign orochimaru said
"I guess it cant be helped , you are the daughter of the shadow hokage, I shouldn't have expected less"

Pausing he continued " so exactly where will you go?"

Silence overtook the place once more

"I'm looking for a master strong enough to teach me, I do however have to find their exact location, for that I'll be leaving to go to the fortress of Nekomata, there I'll obtain what I'm looking for, I leave at dusk"
