"Would you slap your brother for 5 million dollars?"
"I would spinning heel kick him in the face for free."
Uchiha Sasuke messed up, and he wasn't proud of it. Kaguya had won and taken over the Shinobi lands. And this time, there was no Uzumaki Naru...

Sasuke needed to get stronger.
No more of that teen (teen? child?) angst Sasuke was famous for. He needed to get his ass to work. And that meant training.
And training meant getting more chakra.
And that meant learning how to control his chakra.
Sasuke HATED learning how to control his chakra. He had gotten control of it after Sakura and even Naruto, which meant that they would constantly hold it above his head during an argument.
It had honestly pissed him off to no return and those idiots knew it and constantly reminded him of it.
Enough of that. Sasuke needed a quiet, nice place to work where he could blow up some trees without anyone getting suspicious. And he knew the perfect place to do that.
The forest behind the Nara compound was somewhat hard to sneak into, given all of the deer roaming around, but he had done it several times in the past (future?). The hard part was getting out of the house, as his mother had been keeping a close eye on him.
He needed an excuse to get out.
Sasuke sat in his room, facing the wall. He bit his thumb as he thought of methods/excuses to get out of the house without anyone being suspicious.
Ever since the incident several days ago, he had been placed on house arrest.
What could he do? He couldn't think of anything. He needed to escape. Get out. He needed to leave, he needed to run, he needed to save them all.
Sasuke bit his thumb. Blood poured down his hand, but he payed no attention.
He could ask to study. But then his mom might make his brother go with him. He could actually ask to train. But his father or brother might go with him. They would call him a prodigy. He didn't want to be a prodigy, that would gain attention.
And attention was the last thing Sasuke needed, especially after the incident days ago.
He couldn't sneak out at night, as he hadn't even controlled his chakra yet. Now that he thought about it, how was he going to get into the Nara compound without revealing himself?
Sasuke held his head in his hands in exaspperation. How was he going to do this?
His mom knocked on his door and Sasuke jumped. How did he not hear her? He hated his body, it was so weak.
