Chapter One The Past

6 Years Ago

"Sasuke!" I waved my small, thin hand as I ran up to him before school so that we could walk together.

"Oh, hey Kira!" he waved back at me, stopping to wait to let me catch up to him.

"My mom said we were going to the carnival again after school. Are you and your family going?" I asked as I reached him.

"Yep," he said with a smile as we walked side by side, our bags slung across our backs.

I smiled back, a light in my eyes that I got whenever I was with Sasuke. "So what ride are we going to ride first?"

"It's your turn to pick." He told me as if I should have known that.

"I'll decide once we get there." I decided as I turned and walked backwards so that I could face him.

"Sounds like a plan." Sasuke agreed, still smiling.

"We better hurry to school or we'll be late."

At school, we learned the basics of being a Shinobi. Sasuke and I were the head of the class. We trained together, we studied together, we crammed together. We were counting on getting into the same team. If that were to happen, we would be unstoppable.

After school, we met up outside on the playground. "I'll race you to the carnival," I challenged Sasuke as I waved goodbye to Sakura and Ino, who were walking in the opposite direction.

"Prepare to eat my dust." Sasuke told me as he took a runners stance.

"Go!" We took off as fast as we could We tied was what Sasuke's mom told us when we reached the Uchiha's at the Carnival, collapsing at their feet.

"So, here is some money. Go enjoy," Sasuke's mom handed him some money. Sasuke pocketed the money and we took off.

We rode a bunch of rides. Our favorite ride was the twister, one that spun around real fast- I loved those kinds of rides. When we got tired of the rides, we decided to play some games.

"Oh! Look at that!" I exclaimed pointing to a big, fuzzy teddy bear.

Sasuke handed the guy in charge some money and won the bear for me. "Here you go." He handed it to me, a smile plastered on his face. He took my hand and walked me over to a bench.

"Oh, Sasuke thanks. It's so cute." I hugged it tightly as I sat down next to Sasuke. I would never let it leave my sight, I vowed.

"That is a sign of our engagement." Sasuke told me seriously, looking me square in the eyes.

"What engagement?" I frowned, not sure of what he meant. My gaze shifted down to the bear again.

"Will you marry me? Once we are bigger?" Sasuke asked, grabbing my hand to make me look at him.

"Of course I will!" I nodded smiling. How could he have had any doubts. I had long since dreamed of that day.

We ran back to our parents and told them the "news." They smiled and exchanged knowing looks. Since we were only seven years old, we didn't know that that meant they knew something we didn't.

I felt someone ruffle my hair. I turned around to see the smiling Itachi. "Don't get too excited. You two are a little young." He shook his head and folded his arms across his chest.

"I think it's cute," my sister Kara said. She was standing next to Itachi, her arm wrapped around his elbow.. "After all they are betrothed."

"What does that mean?" I asked, frowning. Why did they always use such big words?

"Never mind," Kara laughed.

"You'll understand when you're older." Itachi told me when he saw the anger in my eyes.

The next day we were running home from school. We were incredibly late from training, again. We hadn't kept track of the time. We noticed all the lights were off in the village.

"What's going on? It's too early for the lights to be out," Sasuke noted as we slowly made our way from street to street..

"We better hurry to your house. My parent's were staying over," I said as we took off running.

We stopped dead in our tracks when we came to the street in front of the house. Everyone was lying dead on the streets.

"Mom! Dad!" I screamed as I took off into the house; Sasuke at my heels. I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach that everyone was dead.

We ran into the house and noticed four bodies lying on the floor piled on top of each other. I recognized them as our parents.

"No!" Sasuke choked out, falling to his knees, sobbing into his hands. He didn't care if he seemed childish.

Out of the shadows Itachi and Kara appeared, blood smeared across their clothes, yet there wasn't a scratch on them.

"No!" I screamed, ready to lunge.

With the power of his Sharingan, Itachi made Sasuke and I relive the moment he and Kara had killed our parents. We were screaming, but was it just in our heads, or were we screaming out loud?

Sasuke and I took off towards them, but we were no match. They took us down. With nothing else to do, we ran out of the house, but Itachi and Kara appeared in front of us.

Suddenly, the survivors of my clan appeared and scared off the two murderers. I dropped to my knees next to Sasuke, and we hugged each other.

My grandmother appeared next to me and tried to pry me away from Sasuke. I held on tight, not ready to leave him alone.

"No!" I kicked and screamed. "Sasuke! I want to be with Sasuke!" The other members of the clan snatched me away. Sasuke was too stunned to do anything; he just sat there staring at the ground.

"No child. We need to get you somewhere safe," she said as she drug me away by my arm.

"Sasuke!" I screamed.

"Kira!" he reached out for me when he finally realized what was happening. He got up and ran towards me, but after the signal from my grandmother, the others knocked him out and left him in the middle of the street. I only prayed Itachi and Kara wouldn't come back to finish the job.

I awoke in bed screaming and sweating as I had been for six years. I looked at my alarm clock. It was 5:57. I got up and got dressed. There was no way I was going to fall back asleep anyway. The nightmares were too horrible to come back from.

I grabbed a banana, grabbed my bag, and took off. I was headed back to the Hidden Leaf Village for the first time in six years to this day.
