Disclaimer: I do not own anything of Naruto.
This side of the story is mainly focusing around the Uchiha clan before the massacre. So there are characters that aren't mentioned in the story and some new ones are introduced
Seikatsu Owari, Maeda Shibima (new).
Seikatsu-childhood friend of Sasukes. She goes on and off to Sasuke's house and plays with him before the two start learning how to become ninjas.
Maeda Shibima-Seikatsu's care taker, she watches over Seikatsu ever since her mother had passed away and father disappeared. She also helps Itachi keep an eye on the two. She has foot length reddish purple hair and medium brown eyes. Seikatsu's grandmother lives with them of course.
Chapter One: A normal day of training...
"Hey Sasuke wait up!" Seikatsu said right when she ran towards Sasuke. Sasuke turned around and smiled cheerfully until Seikatsu tripped. "Umph!" Seikatsu said as she landed on the streets. "Seikatsu are you okay?" Sasuke ask running to her aid. Seikatsu sat up slowly and laughed. "I'm okay. It's just a scra-Ow!" Seikatsu rubbed her scrape gently as blood began to flow out slowly. "Brother!" Sasuke called out to Itachi while he was sitting on the porch. "Sasuke, what is it?" Itachi asked surprised. "Seikatsu's leg is messed up in red." Sasuke said holding Seikatsu up. "Seikatsu don't worry my brother will help you." Sasuke said smiling. Seikatsu nodded as Itachi walked over to the two children. "Lets take a look..." Itachi said kneeling over with a few bandages in his right hand.
"Seikatsu how many times did miss Maeda tell you to be careful?" Itachi reminded as he began wrapping the bandages around her leg. "Uh I dunno. I can't remember." Seikatsu lied. Itachi laughed a bit and picked her up and placed her on her feet. Seikatsu stumbled again and Sasuke sighed. "Seika?" Sasuke said the name that Seikatsu would always regret having because her father named her that. Seikatsu flinched at the name and didn't answer.
Itachi then picked Seikatsu up once more and carried her to the house with Sasuke by his side watching Seikatsu the whole time as they walked. "Brother?" Sasuke called out watching Seikatsu lay on the bed with a few clothes under her scraped leg. "Yes Sasuke." Itachi answered. "Seikatsu doesn't like the name Seika-she said it is not a good thing for her." Sasuke sighed. Seikatsu was sleeping soundlessly as Sasuke continued, "Why does she think the name Seika is a bad thing?" Itachi shook his head. "I don't know what to tell you Sasuke but she doesn't want anyone to call her that okay?" Itachi said. "Okay." Sasuke smiled.
Maeda came into the room silently and took a look at Seikatsu's leg. "That girl...she will never quit." Maeda sighed. "Hm? Miss Maeda?" Itachi questioned. "Sorry for the trouble-Seikatsu sort of always gets herself in trouble like this...for some reason she doesn't know why." Maeda said sitting on the edge of the bed. "Sasuke you stay here and watch Seikatsu. Miss Maeda and I are going to have a little talk." Itachi said walking towards the door. Maeda glanced up and looked at him with her eyes wide. "Yes." Maeda said shakily as she followed him. In the next room Uchiha-san and his wife were sitting down at the table silently. Maeda and Itachi sat across from them. "Maeda-chan is there something wrong at the house?" Uchiha-san asked. The wife seemed calm and smiled gently, "It is alright...you can tell us anything we are here for you, Seikatsu and her grandmother." "Well you see, rumors have been going around about Seikatsu's father coming back...and I am not sure if that is a good thing." Maeda said solemnly. "Seikatsu's father is an abusive man. He has beaten Seikatsu's mother because of Seikatsu's bloodline jutsu trait. I do not know what it is but I can't let him get to her." Maeda finished.
"Seikatsu's father? What has he done in the past?" Uchiha-san asked curiously. "Well, he beaten his wife a few times and Seikatsu. He tried to kidnap her but that plan didn't work. And he also...I'm sorry but the rest is too much for me to say." Maeda sighed. Itachi placed a hand on Maeda's shoulder. "Do not worry I will protect you and Seikatsu and her grandmother I promise." Itachi said. Maeda blushed lightly as she shook her head up and down, "Yes, thank you very much." Uchiha-san and his wife smiled in approval and allowed Itachi and Sasuke to stay over Seikatsu's house for a while.
"Wow Seikatsu you got a big room!" Sasuke said amazed. Seikatsu didn't have any toys but she did have some pencils and paper. She also had one stuffed animal that was ripped a few years ago and her dried up flowers. "Sorry if I don't have a lot of things Sasuke. I'm just not a sissy type of girl." Seikatsu said cheerfully while she pulled out another bed for Sasuke. "Hey Sasuke?" Seikatsu said sadly. "Um...yes Seikatsu." Sasuke answered a bit worried. "You can call me Seiku instead of Seika. I think it's better that way..." Seikatsu said crawling on the bed. "Okay then for now on your name is Seiku." Sasuke smiled.
