The world you think you know has changed. Hatred is grown, paths are crossed, and people never stay the same. Sasuke—set on protecting those close to him since the mass murder of his clan deals with many troubling aspects, all of them screaming in his head to go down the opposite path from which he desires. Naruto—a boy who has hated the world for hating him since he could remember. His only want is to find a place where he will have a purpose besides being a burden, but when he starts to find this place he risks putting not only his life on the line, but endangering countless others, and its nothing Sasuke can easily protect him from. See your two favorite ninjas, Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto in a new perspective as you follow them on their divergent paths. Where in this twisted fate, the light falls into darkness while the dark fights to see the light. *This IS an AU*
