Summary: What if Itachi massacred the clan for another reason? What if the Naruto we know was a fake?... ItaNaru and one-sided SasuNaru
It is funny how I started this fanfic. I was trying to write a mystery but it ended up like this. In a way, it is a mystery but it is more like a conspiracy. Well this fanfic's main couple is Itachi as seme and Naruto as uke, I don't know why but I really like Naruto as an uke. You'll see why it is one-sided SasuNaru later on.
Still, this is my first chapter after regurgitating every idea in my head out. Honestly, putting them on paper takes so long. It doesn't help that my best ideas come when I'm in class and I want to pay attention.
Chapter 1: A New Home
"Fugaku," a man stated. "I have your delivery."
Fugaku smirked and said," Well? What are you waiting for? Put him down!"
A bag was tossed on the floor. The man looked expectantly at Fugaku.
"Don't worry, your payment will be the same and my clan will deal with the problem of the replacement," Fugaku grumbled angrily.
"Same method?" the man asked.
"As always," Fugaku smirked. The man nodded and left the room. Fugaku was waiting... A sudden cry of pain echoed through the room. "Fool! You may have been trustworthy so far but you've learned too much."
A group of black-clothed ninja appeared in front of Fugaku and the bag. One had spiky black hair, another had shoulder length black hair, and the last had a normal haircut in brown hair.
"Take him to his new home," Fugaku ordered.
"Hai," the group chanted. The spiky-black-haired ninja grabbed the bag and the group disappeared.
The ninja carefully took out the child inside the bag and placed him on the large, comfortable bed. Then, they used a weak Katon jutsu to dispose of the bag. They looked at the child. He had blonde hair that was constantly in a bed-head mode but was softer than a rabbit's pelt. The blonde hair even shimmered like gold under the light. The child's skin was soft and unmarred by blemishes except for the whiskers on his cheek. It was a nice tan color that will surely disappear while he lived in this home.
"He's under drugs right?" The shoulder-length-black-haired ninja said.
"Yeah but we can't touch him so don't even think about it, Goro," the brown-haired ninja sighed.
"Tch," Goro spat. "You are too stiff, Kazuo."
"He is just following orders unlike you, Goro," the spiky-black-haired ninja sighed.
"Shut it, Yasu!" Goro screamed. Yasu immediately clamped his hands on Goro's mouth.
"Don't wake the kid up," he hissed.
"YASU! Let go of Goro," Fugaku ordered. "It doesn't matter anymore. That order is now void since I'm here."
"I understand," Yasu complied.
"Kazuo, good job. Goro... I am disappointed with you," Fugaku grunted. The ninja nodded.
"You are dismissed," Fugaku directed. The ninja left the room and left Fugaku with the child. He'll be perfect for my son, Fugaku though. The child started to stir.
"Mmmh," he moaned. Fugaku sighed and gently lifted the boy from the bed.
"Where am I?" Naruto yawned. He immediately flinched away when he felt someone's hand on his back. He looked at the hand's owner and saw a stern face.
"My name is Fugaku Uchiha. It can be your new home on certain conditions," Fugaku smirked. "I'm sure you'll like it."
"What are the conditions?" Naruto asked.
"You can never leave this house and will have to provide services for one entire day once in a while."
"How long is once in a while?"
"Once to twice a week to a month."
"... Why should I accept?"
"You wouldn't be beaten here as long as you tell me through a journal." Fugaku went toward a bookcase and said," These are all empty scrolls. As you see, some scrolls have a colored rods. These beige rods will be for your personal use, the red rods are your journal which tell me about how you feel in this place, and the white rods are sort of like your wish list. As long as you write down what you want and place it on the living room table, I will get it for you. I won't get you any weapons or poisons though."
"Wow..." Naruto gasped. "Can I see where I will be living from now on?"
"Of course," Fugaku smirked. He led Naruto around the large underground building. Naruto loved the home. It was beautiful compared to the orphanage. It had 2 floors. The first floor had a living room, a kitchen, a dining room, and a dojo. The kitchen was filled with goodies and the refrigerator and freezer contained multiple compartments which had vegetables, fruits, and meat cut up in many ways. There weren't any knives but Naruto didn't really care. The dojo was large and spacious too. There were shelves connected to the walls. It contained wooden weapons and scrolls. The dojo even contained practice targets. The second floor had a large bathroom, a large bedroom, and a storage room that Naruto was not allowed to enter.
Naruto was really happy that he accepted. This place was a permanent haven for him. He wondered what type of services he would provide. Fugaku gave Naruto a clock and a calendar to keep track of time and his first service will be a week from now.
"I forgot to mention, a person will come when you are asleep to clean this place and refill the food in the refrigerator and freezer," Fugaku commented. Naruto looked at Fugaku and nodded.
"Thank you so much," Naruto said and bowed. Fugaku smirked and left the house. The house had no windows but to Naruto, it was something he could give up. After all, he finally felt safe for once.
