Enjoy!

"Big brother!" Itachi stopped and turned around. There, waving and grinning was Sasuke, running towards him. Itachi sighed and wondered what it was his little brother wanted this time. As Sasuke neared, Itachi let on a smile.

"Big brother, can I come train with you today? Please, please!" Sasuke stopped in front of Itachi and was now looking at him with pleading eyes filled with excitement.

"I'm sorry Sasuke, but you can't." With this, Sasuke's face fell. It was the same answer every day and Sasuke had gotten used to it now, but even then, he always felt disappointed. Sasuke didn't know what he had expected. He knew his brother wouldn't let him train with him, but Sasuke didn't know the reasons behind his brother's answer. It was always the same answer every day and Sasuke was beginning to get tired of it. He wasn't weak and he knew that. Itachi didn't think he was weak too, so why didn't he let him train with him? He pouted; it wasn't fair!

"Why not?" Sasuke demanded. It was the same questioned every day and as always; Sasuke knew the answer to it. If Itachi thought Sasuke was still too young; then he thought wrong. He was five years old; and that, in the Uchiha clan, was considered a reasonable age to start training. The Uchihas' didn't like people who were weak and that's why they put their children to training at the age of five; the right age that Sasuke was in right now.

"Because, Sasuke; I must train on my own," Itachi simply replied and Sasuke just lowered his head in disappointment. But he wasn't giving up so easily, being the stubborn little brat he was.

"But why must you train on your own? Mother says I could go with you, so why won't you let me?" Sasuke pouted and Itachi sighed in defeat. He knew this conversation wasn't leading anywhere.

"I'll tell you what, Sasuke. When I come back from training later; I'll help you with your own training and then maybe you can come train with me tomorrow if you show me you can handle it," With this said, a huge sheepish grin crossed Sasuke's face. He was so happy that he wanted to hug his brother, but even for a five year old; his pride was too strong for that.

"Now go back home." Itachi ordered, turning his back on Sasuke. Sasuke, being the good little boy he was, immediately complied and started heading in the direction of his house feeling more happiness and excitement then disappointment. As soon as Sasuke had turned his back, Itachi disappeared in a puff and when Sasuke turned around, he was gone. Sasuke sighed.

Sasuke walked half way towards his house with a smile on his face. He then stopped and frowned. A great idea has just struck him. Instead of going straight home and getting lectured by his dad about how weak he was, why doesn't he follow Itachi and watch him train? If Itachi won't let Sasuke train with him, then maybe he could just watch and learns some skills on the way. He would have to be extra quiet though and try to hide his chakra so Itachi wouldn't sense him; not that he would succeed anyways. Sasuke nodded and decided to go with his plan but had one problem. Where exactly does Itachi train?

It took a while but Sasuke found his big brother. He had managed to bruise his leg in his little journey, but at least he found Itachi. Sasuke never knew how far away his brother trained from the village until now. He had managed to get passed the guards at the gates and had gotten outside of the village, but now, as he eagerly hid behind a tree trying to spy on his brother; he wondered how on Earth he was going to get back home. Sasuke had never left the village before and the idea of getting lost in these woods kind of scared him. He could always reveal himself to Itachi after he finished training and they could go back home together, but then that meant he would get punished by his father for having left the village in the first place without his permission. Sasuke shook his head at the thoughts and tried not to imagine what his punishment would be as he shifted from his tree to take a glance at his brother.

Itachi jumped back and stood in a fighting stance; panting and sweat triggered down his face and stopped at his chin before dropping. He had been training for quite a while now and he could feel his chakra slowly draining. Itachi was two hours into his training when he felt Sasuke's chakra signal. He had sensed him 10 miles away before Sasuke even arrived and Itachi thought that his little brother didn't even bother to try and hide his chakra. Or maybe he did, but Itachi could still sense it anyways, with or without his sharigan. So the brat had followed him after all; just as he thought. Itachi smirked and targeted five dummies and with little effort; got them all. He then proceeded to do the same again, this time racing up a tree and throwing his kunais' at his target. Itachi was practicing his aiming and his chakra control today. Not that they weren't already as perfect as can be; but because Sasuke was watching him. He didn't want to go into something major just in case his little brother started getting any ideas.

Sasuke has now positioned himself in a small bush, watching his big brother with nothing but respect and admiration in his eyes. Itachi hadn't caught Sasuke yet, so he thought he was doing a pretty decent job hiding his chakra. Something moist and cold dropped onto Sasuke's head. With great curiosity he looked up and saw that the sky had turned into a dark gloomy colour. A sign that rain was on its way. Getting up abruptly, Sasuke glanced at Itachi who seemed to not be bothered by the fact that it was about to rain and kept training. That just made little Sasuke smiled; that adds to another reason why he looks up to his brother and adores him. 'One day, I'll be just like you big brother,' Sasuke thought proudly as he quietly slipped away from his hiding spot.

Sasuke had left Itachi behind to continue on with his training and now it was beginning to rain lightly. Sasuke's clothes were already sticking to his skin and his hair was down flat against his skull. Sasuke's little body had gone pale and he was now shaking with coldness, his lips turning a light shade of blue. He let out a small sneeze and looked around.

Now, where was the way back home?
