I was raised in the late 1800's. What horrible time it was. I was born in 1863 in fact so I remember a lot, and I still do. Some unfortunate and some fortunate. It all started to turn horrible on that one horrible storm. With the snow, sleet, hail and rain, even the lightning striking out in the fields made even more horrible. I'm about to tell you something, but can you really keep it a secret? I'm Sasuke and I'm tempted to tell you my story.

Chapter 1: The Beginning.

1869

"Don't give me that bull-shit that I need to stay on the house!" Momma was drunk again. This time it was much worse though. Came home later than usual and drunker than usual. Daddy was tired of it; he threatened to kick her out if she was to do it again. Daddy had told her this many of times, but now she was tired of hearing it. They were in the kitchen and it was a small kitchen, maybe ten-by-ten, I don't know. But I know it was small and momma was standing right next to the jour with all the knives. I was watching through the crack in the door. I saw the whole thing. The gushing blood and all. I wasn't suppose to see it but I did, and I was about to cry but it didn't, I held in my whimpers. She first slit his throught, and as if it wasn't enough to satisfy her craves for blood she went for each limb.

Daddy's still body fell to floor as momma finished cutting off his left arm, the right was already on the floor, then she went for the left leg and then the right. I was scared, tears glistening down my puffy cheeks now, I stifled a cry. I saw momma walking towards the door, my eyes grew wide as she still had the knife in her hand. I knew damned well what was coming next and I hated that I did, so I ran in my room and locked the door silently.

I heard her foot steps as she climbed the big, steep steps. I heard her stumble more than once. Now I was making the noises I didn't want her to hear, but I knew she would eventually have to hear them. So I suppose now was the time. I heard her sweet, loving, motherly voice call for me.

"Sasuke-Kun! Honey, open the door momma has a sweet surprise for you!" She was banging on the door, if she wasn't banging I would have been tempted to think that she was sober.

"Momma, how bout tomorrow, I'm tired and I'm almost asleep" I prayed that she would understand. But the Lord was apparently not on my side tonight or something.

"Sasuke, please come out now, momma will forget in the morning! Sasuke-Kun!" I sat silently, if I had to I could climb out my window it was only thirty feet until my little feet would hit the ground. Then her voice was talking again, stricter and more demanding, "Sasuke-Kun! Open up this damned door, or ill break it down!"

I sat there thinking, thinking hard. She would start yelling again if I didn't do anything. "Alright momma, here I come!" I was not going to open the door all the way for her, hell no! I opened it a crack and I saw the knife glistening in the light.

"Hey baby. How are you? Are you ok? I heard you crying." I was scared but I thought fast.

"I just heard you and daddy arguing momma. I'm worried that ya'll will get a divorce or something momma! And I love you guys so much" I can pretty damned good, but I don't know if this was one of those 'damned-good' time, so I stepped out hoping it was.

"Oh honey! Don't worry. Me and your daddy will never get a divorce" she pulled me into a tight hug. I realized the knife was still in her hand. I was scared but it didn't show, I had learned to keep a straight face when momma and daddy would come to see if I was ok when I really wasn't.

"You promise momma?" I prayed that she would put the knife down and say yes and go to sleep and then I could go next door to call the police, it was a good 5-10 mile run, but I could be there in half an hour I would hope, I was in excellent shape from all the farm work.

"I promise baby. Now go back to sleep! We need our rest for tomorrow! It's going to be a big day! I love you" she gave me a gentle squeeze and a kiss on my head.

"I love you to momma, good night!" I walked into my room as she turned away. When I got in, I closed and locked my door quietly. I would have to wait until momma was asleep on the couch or in her room until I could leave, unless I was to really jump out the window. That's what I would do! In twenty minutes or so I would jump out the window and head to Naruto's house and call the police.

It had been twenty minutes and I was completely ready to go, had my shoes and two changes of clothes. I was hoping they would let me stay at their house tonight, but before I could even open the window I heard momma and her footsteps heading to my room again. I could jump out the window now and hid somewhere or just run like hell towards Naruto's. I was going with plan 'B'. Before she could even reach for my door handle which I left locked so she would have a hell of a time trying to open it, I was out and running through the fields.

I banged on Naruo's door a whole forty-five minutes later. Naruto's gardian opened the door and was staring in shock at me as he saw I had tears in my eyes. I didn't even realize I was crying, he saw my bag to and thought I was running away I guess, so he brought me in and told me he was ganna call momma.

"NO!" I yelled so fast you would have thought a snake bit 'em. "Don't! Please! Momma killed daddy! I saw the whole thing, and she almost killed me! I left right before she was able to! Please…call the cops! Daddy's in five pieces on the kitchen floor!" I had tears in my eyes again.

Mr. Iruka, I don't know his last name so I didn't think there was any point to call him it, did as I asked. We saw the lights of the cops and ambulance at mommas house and we saw a bag that they must have put daddy in come out and go into the ambulance and then momma in hand-cuffs get shoved into a cop car. Another cop pulled in front of the Johns house and told us what happened and that momma would be put in jail for however long the judge wanted to.

"Sasuke-San, if you could please come with us" I was scared I didn't want to go so I looked at Mr. Iruka in a pleading helping way and he understood.

"Officer, do you think you could let him stay here, he's had one hell of a night already. When you want him ill bring him."

"Alright, as long as h knows you" the cop then looked at me.

"Yes, sir. I'm very familiar with him, his son is my best friend" I smiled widely as I realized that.

"Aright then, get some clothes, 'cause if it all rights with them you might stay there for a few more nights. Good night folks."

I was smiling so widely that I didn't have to go I almost forgot to cry for daddy, but not tonight, I'm tired and scared and I just want to get some rest to see the people tomorrow.

"Come on lil Sasuke, time for bed" Mr. Iruka said as he grabbed me.

Review, be honest. Sakura will enter next chapter. FYI i hate the first story i did...
