Summary: The setting is modern-day Tokyo. Sasuke and Sakura are homicide detectives in Tokyo's 5th precinct; Naruto is a timid 6th grade teacher and Gaara is his obsessive, psychotic half-brother whose relationship with Naruto is questionable as there is hints of incest. When girls are getting murdered around East Tokyo, Sasuke and Naruto's paths cross, not once but several times in a race against time to find the serial killer and stop him before he kills anyone else. But when Sakura is killed by the murderer, Sasuke locks down on the one man he doesn't want to be the killer - Naruto. While battling emotions for the teacher he must come to terms with the fact that Naruto just might be the murderer and Gaara might be a made-up fabrication of Naruto's mind and he has a split personality. But with Naruto behind bars and the murders continue, Sasuke begins to think that this Gaara may not be a figment of Naruto's mind after all but a real-life threat that may be placing his own life in danger....

(1538 words)Hey, sorry all for the extremely long update, but my laptop's power cord has stopped working, the battery is dead, and all my stories are saved on it. This computer I'm on now doesn't read the Brain (it's an external hard drive that has my stuff stored on it) so, until I can get on a computer that has both internet and that can read my Brain I'm afraid it's going to be a little while before I can update. But it will be A.S.A.P, I promise and in the meantime please review! The next chapter will be great!! So, thank you all for your patience, please read and review, and I promise to update soon!!!!!!!!!
SBP
P.S. I am unashamed to do a little promoting while I'm at it. Currently I am working on a SasuSaku, Beneath the Cherry Blossoms. Aaaannnddddd, if I like all the reviews I get, and I get a lot of reviews, I will be working on a sequel to Machinations called Invincible. It's already all plotted out, and it will be great, I promise. Just keep me in your favorites and I will add an extra "chapter" at the end of this story saying that I have added Invincible.
Thank you all for your support and reviews and keep it up! I'll keep writing fueled by your reviews!!!!!!

24. Chapter Eight Part Four by SquareBallProduction [Reviews - 3]
(3037 words)Guess what? Only one more chapter left!! And it comes with a treat, too. When I post Machination's very last chapter I will also immediately post Invincible's first chapter, so you get a head start on the sequel! Yaay! I'm so happy for you. Lol. Invincible is on Chapter Thirteen, and it's days from being completed! I'm so happy! *Squeals till your eardrums pop* Sorry, I'm just excited. Fun Facts!!! These two stories, Machination and Invincible, are my first Naruto fanfics I've ever completed and... out of all my story ideas and beginnings (which are A LOT) I've only completed maybe five stories. These included. So yes, I'm not so hot on following through with stories, because I suck at endings... but lucky for you, I've decided to stick to it and finish it once and for all!! Anyway, sorry to hinder you. Onto the story!
...wait, I forgot. I NOW HAVE FIFTY-ONE REVIEWS!!! I'm so happy. My goal on Invincible is to beat Machination. Lol.
So please review and enjoy the story!! SbP
