Chapter 1

Uchiha Itachi loved his otouto more then a brother should. He knew it too; it had started when he hit puberty at 13. For a long long time he had struggled with denial but eventually he came to accept it. He was 15 now and Sasuke was 10. Perhaps it was a good thing that he had been able to realize his feelings, but it also made it more and more difficult to control himself.

One time Sasuke had been sitting in his lap, eating a piece of chocolate and watching a butterfly land on the windowsill. He was so adorable, it took all of Itachi's willpower not to ravage the boy right then and there. In front of their parents no less.

"Onee-chan! Wake up!"

Itachi opened his eyes slowly to see Sasuke sitting on his bed, smiling brightly. He was so beautiful, with his soft peachy skin, rosebud lips and obsidian eyes shining with excitement.

"What is it Sasuke?" he sighed, sitting up.

"Mother and Father are gone." Sasuke answered.

"What do you mean, gone?"

"They went away. I forgot why. Something to do with negotiations with the Sand Village." He shrugged. "They said they'll be gone a week."

Sasuke hopped off his bed and bounced out of the room. Itachi sighed and looked out the window, squinting from the sunlight. It was a beautiful day that promised an even more beautiful week. The sky was clear except for a few white puffs of cloud. 'I wonder if I'll be able to control myself.' He wondered, watching a crow that was perched on a branch outside. A whole week alone with Sasuke. Damn hormones.

"Ahou!" squawked the crow before flying off.

Suddenly a little devil Itachi appeared on his shoulder.

"Come on, you know you want to!" It said in his ear, grinning. "This is your chance… Throw him on the bed and fuck his brains out!"

"No!" said Angel Itachi, who appeared on his other shoulder. "Think about his feelings!"

"Oh come on, who cares about the runt?" Devil Itachi growled.

"You stay out of this devil boy!"

"Up yours angel cake!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on!" Itachi said. They both looked at him. "I would never do anything to hurt Sasuke. You both should know that."

"Exactly!" Angel Itachi said triumphantly.

"Oh come on, if you don't someone else will." Devil Itachi snarled. Itachi frowned.

"What's that supposed to mean? I won't let that happen."

"Onee-chan? Are you talking to someone?" Sasuke said, poking his head through the doorway.

"Uh, no." Itachi said. The Devil Itachi and Angel Itachi had disappeared.

"Can we go to the park?" Sasuke begged, obviously forgetting about it.

"Sure, but you have to eat breakfast first."

"Yay!"

Devil Itachi appeared on his shoulder again. "You know you'll have to give in eventually." Then he was gone.

Itachi truly was losing his mind.

Sasuke sat with his elbows on the kitchen table, his chin resting in his palms. Itachi was bustling around the kitchen.

"I didn't know you could cook." He said, blinking. Itachi looked at him and smiled slightly.

"I only learned to make pancakes."

"Can I help?" Sasuke suggested.

"No, just stay there." He answered, pouring the batter into the frying pan. Sasuke frowned. Yes, he'd probably just get in the way…

After breakfast, they went to the park. Sasuke immediately headed for the swings, seeing that they were open. Since it was a beautiful Sunday, the park would soon be packed and it was a pain to wait for a turn. Sasuke loved the park, but he hardly ever got to go. He was always too busy training. Indeed, the park was soon filled with children.

"Let's pretend to be Shinoubi!" one kid said to his friend.

"Okay!" she said. "I wanna be from the Uchiha clan! You can be from the Huga clan!"

"Okay! Go, Byakugan!"

"Go Sharingan!"

"Ahou!" cawed a crow nearby.

Sasuke laughed as he watched the children throw sticks at each other. They had no idea what it was really like to fight like Shinoubi. Of course, Sasuke didn't know what an actual fight was like. Itachi did though. Sasuke looked over at him. He was sitting under a tree and appeared to have dozed off. 'It wouldn't surprise me if he's already killed someone.' Sasuke pondered. He shook his head and kept swinging.

Something suddenly caught his eye. It was a small brown puppy, running into the bushes nearby. 'It must have gotten off it's leash.' Sasuke thought, sliding off the swing and going after it. He went through the bushes and found himself near the edge of a forest. 'I didn't know there was a forest back here.' He thought absentmindedly as he pursued the puppy.

"Hey, wait come back!" he called as it ran farther and farther into the forest.

Finally he caught up with it. The puppy had stopped running and was sitting on the ground in a clearing. He bent over to pick it up, but the second he touched it, the puppy disappeared with a poof.

"Huh? An illusion?" he said out loud. Then he noticed that the forest was very quiet. He was so far away he couldn't hear the children in the park. There weren't even birds chirping. He reached back and took out a kunai from his pack. Something was very, very wrong.

"Well well, you're pretty sharp aren't you little one?"

Niko Mane: Okay, I know it's really short but you see, when I first started writing it, it was supposed to be a one-shot. But I got MASSIVE writers block, so I want you're suggestions on what should happen. So please review!
