Author's Note: I just love tragic love stories and reincarnation…

The Summoner

The last sphere snaps into place on the pedestal and a huge magical sigil forms on the floor. The pedestal magically sinks into the colorful seal, creating a platform of solid stone out of thin air. The platform is easily wide enough for ten people to ride on, suspended by nothing but magic above a deep hole. I can feel a stirring of magical energy leaking up from the hole that wasn't in the room before.

"Man, these temples are such a drag. Can't the Fayth let a few fiends inside for me to play with while we wait?" Suigetsu yawned lazily from his perch on the steps of an ornately carved dais, and took a sip of his water.

Juugo gave him a disapproving glare, but he said nothing, continuing to stand guard with his arms folded across his broad chest.

I smirked, knowing my silver haired guardian wouldn't be changing his opinion any time soon.

"Can we turn back now? This place is giving me a weird feeling…"

The two fighters are edgy as well. I sense it too; that this place just isn't like any other temple of Yevon. It's a distant feeling, and I've already completed the trials here, but there is something sinister about this ancient ruin that I've never encountered before…

Never the less, I snort and look down the dark shaft toward the Chamber of the Fayth. "I have to go, Karin. The Fayth of this temple will be expecting me now that I've completed the Cloister of Trials."

"Oooh… I just knew you were going to say that, Lord Sasuke! Well, you're so brave!"

I rolled my eyes, glad that my back was toward her, because I wasn't about to acknowledge her constant cooing. I only brought her along because the temple Elder in Besaid insisted on sending along a third guardian. She's a decent enough mage, but everyone knows I'm a better one.

It won't help to get upset about it now anyway, so I don't. I have a job to do here.

As our ship left Besaid, the captain told me of a mysterious island with the ruins of an ancient temple. The island has no inhabitants, but the growing number of fiends made even the waters around it dangerous, while the land itself was said to rumble as if an ancient evil were awakening there…

As the only summoner on our voyage, I promised everyone that we would see what was causing the disturbance on this strange island, but so far we've found fiends and very little else. The windswept island is a fog shrouded desert, even weeds can't grow here, but there are clever fiends.

We almost gave up, and went back to the boat; the ruined temple had obviously been destroyed by the elements long ago. But a nagging feeling in the back of my mind kept me searching. I didn't know what it was at first, but the more I searched, the more certain I became that there is something here. Finally, I found a single glyph that responded to my magic and we made it inside the collapsed ruins where the monsters can't follow us. There are no records of who built this place, or why, yet the symbols all over this place are the same as those still used by Yevon, though a few of them seem to have slightly different meanings here. As a student of history, that only made me more curious to see the rest of the temple, so I can only assume that this place must actually be older than the Zanarkand/Bevelle war.

The thought makes me shiver with anticipation. I can't help feeling excited as I step onto the stone disk.

The others want to come with me, I can see it in their faces that they don't want to let me go alone, but it is tradition. I smirk, as I disappear from their sight, hoping it will reassure them. Not that it matters, as the summoner, only I can address the Fayth directly.

Torches light themselves at various intervals along my decent, and the shaft widens into a large room, and when the disk finally stops, I'm standing before a particularly large, deformed statue resembling a hybrid of a man and a monster rather than any Fayth I've ever seen or read about.

Numerous wards and sigils surround it. The walls are covered in paintings and carvings that warn of danger and treachery, as though this Aeon has somehow fallen from favor with Yevon. But even now I can feel the slumbering creature's great power. Power like this would have to be useful against Sin!

I'm only getting more curious about this place, so I kneel before the ancient statue, and close my eyes. "Please, hear me, ancient one. I am a summoner, and I've come to ask for your help."

"You're a follower of Yevon. So tell me, why should a demon help you on your ridiculous "sacred" quest?" I've never heard a Fayth answer my prayers so clearly- or loudly before. The voice in my mind growls so loud that I have to wince- it sounds like a summer thunderstorm at the beach.

"Demon?" I am surprised by the words, but I'm only getting more curious about its responses. "You are not an Aeon?"

The voice snorted indignantly. "I'm Kyuubi, human. I am the nine-tailed demon fox! I was magically brought to your world by accident and then sealed inside this accursed statue when my summoner realized she couldn't release me back into my own world."

"You may not like summoners, but you drew me to this place; the whole island is shaking with your anger at being trapped here. Let me free you, and join my quest. Those who help bring the Calm to Spira are Yevon's greatest warriors; so the temple would be indebted to you. They would have to at least try to send you home if you help us stop Sin."

The voice laughed humorlessly. "You must be very young. You truly believe that this time will be different for me, don't you? Tell me; what is your name, Summoner?"

"I'm called Sasuke."

I heard silence for a moment, then another jaded snort, but the voice seemed to sigh. "If you would use my power, you must know that I must be beside you at all times. Unlike your Aeons, I have no alternate dimension to return to when you don't require my direct assistance. But also unlike them, I can easily pass for a human when I need to."

"You are a strange- creature…" I hadn't realized I'd said that out loud until Kyuubi laughed.

"To me, you are the strange one, human. Other summoners have come here seeking me, but all of them ran away. I've given you fair warning of my true nature, yet you don't seem afraid."

"I'm not afraid of my destiny," I growled. "I am the one who is going to destroy Sin, because I don't have anything else to live for."

I know how my quest will ultimately end, but I'm not afraid. The temple priests and the teachings have frowned on my reasoning for years, but even they have accepted that I do possess the talent.

"Then you're an Avenger…" The voice was thoughtful- almost quiet this time, and the words formed a statement, not a question, but I nodded anyway. "Very well, I'm interested. But since I'm not an Aeon, you will need to sign a blood contract to release and control my power."

I caught a hint of amusement in the voice but I shrugged. "Then I will sign it."

"Your name suits you..."

A large scroll appeared at the base of the statue, and I used my sword to nick my finger. I smirked as I wrote my name on the heavy parchment.

"So, you actually signed it… Very well, summoner, my strength is yours to command."

The scroll disappeared but a bright mass of magical energy appeared where it had been.

As it gathered, the magic took on the shape of a red coated fox. The creature was ethereal and it had nine long tails that lashed around it independently. The creature grew rapidly with a roar, until it filled the cavernous room and then expanded far beyond its walls. The fox changed as it began to solidify. It shrunk as it took on more of a humanoid shape, and stood on two legs, but it kept the nine tails.

"Consider this my war form though you may never need it."

I found myself thinking that it looked a lot like the Aeon Ifrit, as it was incredibly muscular and feral; it also seemed to like the colors of fire. Red and gold fur marked its body. It had large clawed hands and deep red eyes. The monster was never quite solid though, and it began to change again.

It also seemed to be going to sleep, by the time it was stretched out onto the floor, it had shrunk to man-sized. It was still glowing with the energy that was forming him, but even without the intense aura of magic, he would have seemed too handsome to be real.

"Sasuke, meet Naruto. He is my human form."

As Kyuubi had promised earlier, Naruto looked perfectly human- well, except that he had three thin scars that looked curiously like whiskers on each cheek. He was only a little taller than me, but his shoulders were much broader and he had golden skin with absolutely no tan lines. I knew that because although he was becoming more and more solid, he was still completely naked. It took me a moment to realize that I was completely attracted to him.

I blushed. I'd never given much thought to my sexual orientation before; I'd always thought it was just Karin that turned me off. But no other woman has ever attracted me either- not the way he is, anyway!

"Naruto?" I whispered, testing the strange name as he started to stir.

I knew I was blushing as I quickly took off my cloak and wrapped it around him. His golden blond hair was silky and he had the bluest eyes I've ever seen, when they fluttered open.

There is something strangely familiar about all of this- even Kyuubi's name sparks something deep in my heart-

"Sasuke?" He asked. I liked his voice- it was familiar as well, yet it sounded completely different from that of the demon. "Is it really you?"

I nodded, trying to act casual even though my heart is beating so fast that I can't keep up with it.

He didn't seem to notice my embarrassment or the fact that he was naked. He was busy looking around, obviously puzzled. "Where are we?"

"I- We're not far from Besaid Island, but no one lives here- I don't think this island has a name- or if it did, no one remembers it anymore. Come on, we should go. The ship is waiting." I tried to stand up, so that I could offer him my hand but he easily yanked me back down onto his lap instead.

"Gods you're still beautiful, Sas'ke." He whispered; his voice was so husky- that he sounded just like a cat purring.

I'd barely squeaked in protest, so I finally looked away. It seems like there are hot butterflies in my stomach making it hard to decide what to do or even say. The way he's looking at me is making me blush even more! I'm still sitting in his lap- and I'm getting hard too…

'Wonderful.' I growled. 'This is a really great time to remember you're a seventeen year old virgin.'

Scolding my body didn't help. I was still aroused, only now I was starting to hope he was going to kiss me. That's exactly why I scowled at him and tried again to get up, but that only made him growl possessively and he put his hands on my hips.

Part of me says to let my pride tell him that I'm not the toy he thinks I am, but part of me is incredibly curious to know what he will do with me next…

"I've missed you," he purred, staring at me with those jewel-blue eyes.

Apparently the curious part of me is winning. I shivered- I still want to ask him who- or what he thinks I am, but he kissed me instead. After that, I quit thinking; it was almost too much at once.

I'd never been kissed before, but I liked it. His mouth was warm and soft and his tongue was so gentle as he traced the tight seam of my lips, that I couldn't help giving in. The taste of him was intoxicating; like the crackle of electricity in the air just before a thunderstorm with strawberries somehow mixed into it.

When he pulled away, I heard a whimper or protest and realized it had been mine.

I glared at him, trying to get some control of the situation, but he only smiled gently as he kissed me again. With his arms around me, and his lips working their magic against mine, I couldn't resist him this time either.

"I knew you'd find your way back to me somehow, Teme." He whispered against my neck, between kisses. The last word was spoken with a particularly affectionate purr, and he ground his erection against my ass.

A jolt of pure electricity shot through me, and when he did it again, I moaned, rocking with him. "I love you, Sas'ke."

"W-Wait!" I gasped, trying to hold him down with my hands on his shoulders. I could see it was only working because he found it amusing, so I glared at him more.

This is getting ridiculous- even if he is gorgeous and an amazing kisser… 'This is too weird- I've definitely never heard of another summoner being molested by an Aeon before.'

Unfortunately, that didn't make it feel any less real when his hand grasped my hard length through my clothes…

"S-Stop!" I gasped, scrambling to stop his wandering hands. "Who are you? What are you?"

"Naruto isn't one of your ridiculous Aeon pets, remember? He was fully human, I am the demon." The demon's voice was impatient and angry. "In our world, he is what was known as a Jinchurriki- or demon vessel. Your priests didn't understand his power- or his curse- so they bound and sealed his soul into the statue because they feared I would get out if they didn't. His current body was recreated by my power, but he was never conscious of our imprisonment here so his spirit remains free of my influence."

'But why is he kissing me and… touching me?'

"He seems to think you are the reincarnation of his former lover. I must admit, you have more than just the name; you also look exactly like him, and you're an avenger too; so far it sounds like a match to me..."

"I don't understand… "

"You bound a demon to your soul with your own blood. Your previous self was also known for doing reckless things for power."

"Then you knew this would happen?"

Kyuubi chuckled. "When you told me your name, I figured it was distinctly possible..."

"Don't be mad at him- I've missed you," Naruto purred, nuzzling my neck. "And I'm not loosing you again."

"I-I don't have time to play games with you! I'm a summoner! I have a job to do!"

"It's not a game to me either. I'm bound to help you with that task. But, in return, you're mine, Sasuke." He whispered against my neck, and then he slowly traced the line of my collarbone with his tongue.

I shivered but I tried again to get up. 'This is unheard of- summoners are revered! They aren't supposed to be approached by just anyone and certainly not like this…'

"You always did take things too seriously, Teme…" He purred.

That was all the warning I got before he arched his back, and twisted his powerful body. I growled and tried to punch him, but instead I was pinned to the floor, with my hands trapped above my head. He smirked down at me challengingly, and then closed his eyes as he leaned down to kiss me again.

I bit his bottom lip- hard. I didn't let go either, but I was in for a surprise of my own- he liked that.

With no more than a soft growl, he reached down and cupped my balls, squeezing them gently through my clothes. I moaned shifting my hips up into his, and he did it again. I released his now split lip when I gasped.

He smirked while I just glared at him, trying to steady my breathing. "Your temper says no, but your body still reacts perfectly."

"I'm your summoner," I said coldly. "And you will release me."

He laughed. I liked the sound, filled with warmth and humor; it seemed so distantly familiar that for a moment, I couldn't process what he said next.

"You got one thing right," he purred. He leaned down and stroked my neck with his tongue. He pressed more of his warm, solidly muscled body against mine without releasing my hands and I moaned softly.

He was so warm against me that I shivered as I felt his chest pressed fully against mine at that moment. "You are mine, summoner."

My pride didn't want me to admit it, but he could have already done it, if he was trying to rape me.

He has been very careful of me in his own disturbingly possessive way, and I like the way my skin gets goose bumps every time he looks at me with those blue eyes. My body feels like it's practically on fire with every brush of his hand. When he uses that soft, husky voice I want him to kiss me again.

I shuddered, and gasped when he nipped my ear, before sucking on it lazily. "Mine to serve..."

He licked a long, playfully winding trail along my neck, down to one of my nipples, and I arched my back with a long moan. I writhed against him, and parted my legs for him without even realizing I was doing it. "Mine to protect…"

When his hands untied the sash around my hips, I tried to protest, but he nipped one of my nipples. A searing jolt of white hot pleasure shot through my body, warming me everywhere. "Mine to touch..."

My quest is a death sentence that I've carried for as long as I can remember- I'd never felt so alive before...

"Naruto…" I shivered, trying to pull him closer to me.

He gave a soft growl, but obeyed, pressing his body closer to mine. He licked and nibbled at it gently before he treated my other nipple to a long, sensual kiss.

"Don't stop…" The whisper was so soft that it took me a moment to realize that the breathless words were mine. My fingers were busy entangling themselves into his golden hair.

'When did he let go of my hands?' Not that it mattered, I thought hastily, I bucked my hips and moaned when he bit that nipple too.

I heard another soft growl from him and I closed my eyes as he kept kissing my chest.

'I need this.' The realization startles me, but I accept it quietly. I don't regret being a summoner, but I've always felt alone because of the strict rules of propriety that I've followed all of my life. If this is what it's like to finally be needed and desired as a person, rather than being admired but untouchable because I've accepted my fate, then I don't want to lose this connection. I don't want to lose this moment.

"I've missed the taste of you…" He purred. He was still kissing me when his hands slipped down, and cupped my balls again, but this time there were no clothes in the way. I arched against him, mindlessly.

I gasped and held on tight while his tongue dipped into my naval. "N-Naruto-" I moaned.

"You like that, don't you, baby?"

The question startled me- but only because I didn't need to think about the answer. "Yes…"

He chuckled, and nipped my hip. I gasped, shivering when he slid between my legs.

For a moment I thought about resisting, but he was still teasing my balls, with feathery strokes and rolling them gently between his fingertips. I just moaned, opening my legs even more.

He chuckled as he leaned down and I whimpered when I felt his warm breath against my cock. I arched my back, but he was careful not to touch me there as he continued to move lower. I didn't have a chance to ask him what he was doing.

"Please…" I moaned, I still had my hands in his hair, but his neck muscles were strong enough that he resisted my insistent pushing.

While he kept one hand busy teasing my balls to keep me lost in a haze of pleasure, he put my legs up over his shoulders and he licked along the inside of my right thigh- very slowly.

"NNNNGnnn…" I moaned. He did it again, to the other leg, but paused on his way back up to nip randomly at the sensitive skin, leaving me with goose bumps.

I was squirming and moaning everywhere, but I wasn't about to let go.

My cock was so hard it was painful, and I didn't understand what he was waiting for. "Please!"

I know it will hurt if he takes me before I'm ready, but want more. I've never done this before, I don't quite know how to touch him back, but all of this teasing is making me desperate.

"Mmm. Sas'ke I love the way you beg." He purred. His voice was so husky that I would've almost cum even if he'd been talking about the weather. "I'll bet you're hard for me now, aren't you, baby?"

"Y-Yes!" I tried to touch my cock, but he stopped me, purring as he sucked lazily on my fingers.

"Good..."

I growled, wondering what he was up to, but before I could yell at him for teasing me like this I felt something warm and wet glide down the cleft of my ass.

"Oh God…" I moaned. 'Is that his…'

Yep. It was and I loved it; the way his tongue felt against my ass. I moved my hips, trying to coax him inside of me. He obeyed, but only for a few moments at a time before he'd pull away to tease me again. He sucked on my cock and my balls too, while using his fingers to tease my ass, stretching me for what was to come.

"N-Naruto…" I was nervous, but I know I need this. "Please!"

He sits up in between my legs and looks at me sheepishly. "I just don't want to hurt you…"

"Then why did you start this here, Dobe?" I growl. I sat up and kissed him, I can taste myself on his lips and tongue, but I'm too horny to care that it should probably be grossing me out. I sense his hesitation when he kisses me back, but he pulls me onto his lap, so I'm straddling his thighs.

His hand slides up my cock, and gets a glaze of my pre-cum, I moan into our kiss and help him smooth it onto his cock.

I was glad that he took so much time stretching me, but it still hurt as he started to push inside...

I whimpered, tears leaked from my eyes as he pulled me down on top of him, lodging him partially inside, but my pride wouldn't let me try to pull away now. Instead, I collapsed against his chest, praying that it would stop hurting eventually.

He gave a low, rumbling growl of pleasure that made the butterflies in my stomach begin fluttering all over again. "So tight…"

It still hurt, but I liked that noise and I wanted to be close to him. I shifted my hips just a little bit, but it was enough to slide him deeper into me.

'Oops.' Even breathing hurt at that point, so I rested my head against his shoulder and tried not to move again.

I noticed a glistening sheen of sweat across his muscular body. He contrasted with my pale, wiry body so much that I thought he was even more beautiful now. I kissed his shoulder lightly and he growled softly, holding me tighter against him. I liked it this time- that he was so possessive of me and the salt on his skin tasted wickedly exotic, so curiosity got the better of me again. I wanted more, so I sat up and licked my way up his throat.

"Sasuke…" There was a warning in that growl, but I smirked. I sucked softly on the soft, velvety skin of his ear lobe, and he shivered deliciously against me. 'So, it does work both ways…'

I didn't have a chance to tease him again though. He turned us over, and pushed even deeper inside of me.

I bit my lip and closed my eyes- expecting it to hurt again. But his cock brushed against something deep inside me that made me gasp as my body arched and shivered with pleasure instead. "H-Harder…"

"We'll do it your way later," he chuckled, leaning down to nuzzle my neck. I growled at his playfully patronizing tone, but I didn't get a chance to say anything.

He pulled back, and then pushed back into me again. As his cock nudged my prostate again, I moaned, unaware that my nails were digging into his shoulders.

"Gods! You're so tight…" He whispered breathlessly, pulling back again.

I bucked my hips to meet him, loving the way he felt inside me. It was like a coiled spring inside me was slowly being squeezed until it threatened to bust loose with his every thrust.

But it didn't and his thrusts began to come faster and harder until they lost their smoothness. I moaned, holding him even tighter; that feeling inside of tension inside me was so hot it was getting painful. He grasped my cock, and I arched into him with a gasp.

"That's it," he growled, stroking my cock in time with his thrusts. "Cum for me, baby."

His voice was so sexy that I did… My body shuddered violently as it released all of that delicious tension in his next thrust.

It took me a moment to open my eyes, and by then Naruto had stopped and collapsed on top of me. But I didn't move as I lay there, waiting for my breathing to return to normal. I felt much too content to push him away.

Instead, I ran my fingers through his hair until he nipped my neck, chuckling playfully. "You taste good."

He grinned and waggled his eyebrows as he sat up, but I glared at him. I was probably being ridiculous, but I didn't care- we were a sticky, sweaty mess, and I've never lost control like that before. I reached for my shirt, and he growled, pulling me into another sweet kiss.

I tried for a moment to resist, but my body was still much too interested in his for that to last very long.

When the kiss broke, I realized I was sitting on his lap and I was trying to coax him inside me again.

"Asshole…" I growled, trying again to pull away, he stopped that by grasping my hips.

"I can't help it that I'm just that sexy." He purred, and slowly licked my neck. "I'd love to take you again right now, but I don't want to hurt you."

I decided not to talk, and closed my eyes, gathering my magic to cast the grooming spell. It was rudimentary, simple spell taught to everyone who intended to become a summoner, because we are expected to look perfect at all times. But since he was touching me, its effect would've been negated if I didn't share its effect with him. I've never had to cast it that way before so it took all of my concentration.

As the magic dissipated, I sighed; glad to have that sticky mess off of my stomach in particular, I reached for my shirt again.

He growled possessively, startling me. "I liked having my scent all over you, Teme."

It sounded so ridiculous that I actually laughed and he tried to scowl, but he chuckled instead. "You know, I think I'd forgotten how gorgeous you are when you smile. I want to make you smile like that all the time."

I blushed and looked away, but I could still feel the warmth of his eyes on my body. "Oh well, I guess you still have my mark on your neck…"

I was suddenly incredulous. "What?"

"While we were making love I guess I got a little carried away with sucking on your neck, but you liked it."

I shivered as he kissed it. Yep. It was a bruise alright, and I was a little ashamed to note that I wanted him to do it again, even though it hurt and it would be obvious to my guardians- and everyone else where I got it...

I dressed quickly, feeling painfully self conscious, still unable to believe what we'd just done- in a holy temple, no less. I wished I had a mirror, but as I ran my fingers through my hair, I started to think maybe I didn't want to know…

I felt Naruto put his arms around me from behind. "Relax, Teme, it isn't your fault that you're so damn sexy- especially in this outfit…"

I blushed, I'd never felt self conscious about my appearance before, but then, I'd never met anyone like Naruto before either…

Unlike most summoners, I don't wear the bright, colorful robes. I fight with a sword instead of a wand or a staff. My black shirt is considered fashionable in that it doesn't cover much, but unless I'm fighting, I always wear my sword harness and a heavy cloak over it. My pants and boots are also black, but comfortable, so really, the only thing that marks me as a summoner is my belt. It's basically a sash embroidered with the colorful symbols of Yevon in pure silk.

"Let's go." I growled, pulling away from him.

I was afraid he was still naked, so I didn't dare to look at him until he put my cloak around my shoulders and turned me around to clasp it.

He was wearing mostly orange. I rolled my eyes, but I had to admit, he looked good. The orange pants were smooth and shiny and he wore a matching orange jacket accented by black splashed across his broad shoulders. The jacket wasn't zipped and beneath that was a mesh shirt that looked impossibly sexy on him. I blushed, wondering how I was going to keep myself from drooling any time I looked at him.

I moved toward the platform that would take us back up to the Cloister of Trials, but then I stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"What am I going to tell my guardians?"

He smirked, "Your companions up there? Uh, how about the truth?"

I glared at him. "And what is the truth here, exactly?"

"That my name is Naruto and I'm going to help you defeat Sin because you are the reincarnation of my ex-boyfriend… And you should probably mention that we're lovers, because if anyone else touches you, I will kill them."

I snorted. "I'm not your property, Dobe. I'm-" That was all I said before he pushed me up against the wall with a playful growl. I should've bitten him again, but I moaned instead, as I sucked on his wickedly sexy tongue…

Author's Notes: The grooming spell is a little something I borrowed from AD&D. It basically gives you a bath, cleans and straightens your clothes, fixes your hair and brushes your teeth instantly. But, I figured that if magic and Spira really existed, then Yevon would probably teach something similar to the legion of brave summoners that appear every ten years to fight Sin.

This is (obviously I hope) not going to be a simple retelling of FFX. There will be characters, situations and ideas from the game, but for the sake of the story, I will continue to shake things up as I see fit.

Before you ask; Yes. I really did have to set up the POV from first person Sasuke. I don't think like Naruto well enough to write it as him…. (Tis homage to the storytelling gods at Square Enix, who gave us FFX through the eyes of Tidus.)

Is this really the Naruto we all know and love from the manga/anime? Yes. He's just had well over 1,000 years to miss his Sasuke…

Is this Sasuke really Naruto's lost love from another world reincarnated? Well, I could answer that right now, actually, but I'd rather know what you guys (and girls) think first… XD
