"Anki-san, don't go!" Uchiha Sasuke ran in the pouring rain, his ten year old legs carrying him quickly over the muddy earth. The small raven haired boy tripped over his long boy-kimono, making him trip; tears running down his small, round face.
Uchiha Itachi glanced over his shoulder, his onyx eyes glinting in the dim light, "Sasuke…you should be in bed." The small boy bit his lip, his own onyx eyes clouding over with unshed tears. He wanted to be portrayed as a strong boy in front of his older brother.
Sasuke's eyes flicked to the grey morning sky, then they slid to his older brother; his Anki-san whom he loved deeply…
"D-don't go," Sasuke sputtered, his eyes lowering to the ground, "You'll…get hurt…and I'll miss you."
Itachi slid off the pack of things he needed for the six month journey, and squatted on the muddy ground; helping his small brother up.
"Father would not like for you to be following me, Sasuke," He stated, brushing a strand of the younger boy's hair out of his eyes, "Nor would mother want mud on your clothing."
The young boy, with a burst of courage, clung to the older boy and cried in his chest, "I d-d-don't want you to g-go! M-mother said you're going to d-die!"
Itachi rubbed soothing circles on the boy's back, the silk creating the effect he wanted. Sasuke stopped his sobbing, but he remained with his face implanted on the rough traveling kimono. "Sasuke…I will return, no matter how much mother seems I am incapable of."
"Promise?" Came the meek reply of the second Uchiha brother.
Itachi smoothed his brother's spiky hair, and whispered: "Promise."

Six months Later
Uchiha Complex

Uchiha Sasuke walked through the large Uchiha Complex, his ten year old legs gliding smoothly with his excitement. His Anki-san was coming home today! Sasuke's raven hair glinted scarlet in the dieing sunlight as he walked to the largest building where he knew a banquet would be taking place alongside his brother's return.
"Mother was wrong," He breathed happily, "Anki-san will be home today! I just know it!"
The heavy paper door slid shut as he entered his home, taking off his wooden sandals and quickly padded up the cool wooden steps.
"Mother…Father," He entered the large study where he thought his parents would have been. Frowning slightly, the young boy closed the door. Something didn't feel right…there was some sort of a foreboding air around the complex the young boy couldn't quite place his finger on.
Sasuke headed slowly down the dark hallway, and glanced over his shoulder.
He was completely alone.
"Mother…Father…?" No one.
He slid a small hand onto the door frame of a room he had yet to check. Surely they would be in here, telling him that the menacing air was all his imagination. His Anki-san would hug him tightly, and whisper things into his ear that made him giggle. They would tell him it was all right…that he had nothing to…
Fear.
The door slid open with the small boy's out-cries of courage. Sasuke's raven eyes fell onto something so grotesque, so horrifying, his ten year old lips formed something that could only be described as animalistic.
His entire body shook, and breath could not even escape his throat.
"M-mama…P-papa…?!" His breath let out the old pet names he had for his parents; his eyes sliding over every blood-stain that adorned his mother and father's mangled corpses.
The heavy doors slid shut behind him, making the small Uchiha yelp and cower. "Look Sasuke, remember it." It was the low tremor of his brother's voice that reverberated around the large room.
"Look well and remember this. "
Sasuke pulled his eyes off of the distorted images of his once beautiful parents and to the demon that made them that way. "I-Itachi?!"
Itachi's eyes glinted scarlet as he looked down at his helpless brother, his face expressionless.
"You did this!?" Sasuke's painful cries echoed through-out the room, until he shook and retched onto the floor.
"Yes. Cultivate the feeling of hate, Sasuke. Let the feeling be your master, and suffering your teacher." Itachi glided slowly to his cowering younger brother.
"Hate me—"
Sasuke looked at his brother, his eyes glazed with tears.
"Loathe me—"
Itachi placed a slender finger on his brother's moon-pale cheek.
"Want to destroy me."

A/N: This story is far from over. Okay, yes. I know that I suck at writing, and I know that I didn't keep Itachi IC, but hell; this is my story! .
I hope you all know that I love you all, and that Uchihacest is good for the blood. Read it. Love it. Live it.
Well, I'll stop with my ranting. I should update on other things. .
