"Sasori, have you tracked her down?"
"Don't rush me! I would like to see you find her yourself, Deidara!"
"One of you two better find her or else the leader will be mad."
"SHUT UP ITACHI!"
"SILENCE!"
The three men turned around to their leader.
"Leader sama." They said at the same time.
"Report to me now."
"The last Haruno is no where to be found." The red haired man reported. "I believe you killed her sir."
"Probably died with the other Harunos." The blonde backed him up.
"Perhaps," the leader walked over to Itachi, "what do you think?"
Itachi agreed with a slight nod.
"Very well then. I guess we can get back to work. Sasori, Deidara, go back to your posts." The leader walked out of the room. "After all, I have the Leaf to rule. And soon, the world."
"Yes Lord Uchiha!" The blonde and his friend said.
"And Itachi..."
"Yes?"
"I have news about your brother's whereabouts."

Long ago, there was a group of powerful fighters and healers that called themselves the Harunos. They worked hard and later on created a small village called the Leaf. Across the world, ninjas, Charka users, and even samurais, came to the village to begin a new slate in the peaceful area. All was good until a new clan called the Uchihas stumbled across the Leaf. They wanted it for themselves and fought with the Harunos consistently for the sacred land. Then one day, a powerful Charka user named Uchiha Madara rose up to power in the clan and destroyed the Harunos, raising the Uchihas to power over the village. Life for those living in the Leaf was harsh and cruel. They wanted a new ruler, but no one had the power to go against a God like man. Only a Haruno could defeat him, but they were killed when he attacked them. Well, he killed all but one.

Faster, faster, faster!
"Get back here girl!" Screamed a store man, chasing her with a broom.
"It's only an apple!" She rolled her as she ran from him. "Come on Teuchi!"
She continued to run until she ran into a fenced off area.
"Just give it back girl and I won't have to hurt you..." Teuchi slowly approached her.
"Quit calling me that!"
She winked at him as she did a back flip over the fenced wall. "The name is Sakura!"
"Damn you Sakura!"
The pink haired lady laughed as she rushed all the way to an empty building. She called it home, it was the only place she felt safe at. It was just like any other house, except the house suffered minor fire burns. An Uchiha attacked a family and took them into custody. Luckily for Sakura, the Uchihas never came back to take the items away.
"Well Mr. Apple, I enjoyed taking you from the crazy store owner," she smiled down at the beautiful red fruit, "but it's time to enter my tummy."
With two huge bites, Sakura finished the apple and tossed it outside her home. The Leaf was already a mess, what was the point of cleaning up after herself? The girl sat down on the couch and stretched out.
"What a nice way to start a morning. What else can I do?" She looked up at the ceiling. "Maybe I can do the Leaf a good thing and start cleaning up? Nah!"
She brushed back her hip length hair as she sat up to look outside. The villagers were doing their normal business: selling things to make a living and doing hard labor for the leader. Times were hard for them and she felt bad that they had to do so much just to live a poor life.
"I swear the leader is insane." She closed he blinds and sat down. "Once I gain enough strength..."
Sakura touched her symbol on her back. It was the Haruno clan sign.
"Once I gain enough strength, I'll kill him for what he did to my family." She whispered. "I vow to bring down the Uchihas!"
Sakura prepared herself before heading outside. She picked up her sword, put on her green vest, and tied back her hair into two pigtails. It was mandatory that everyone with Charka powers to put on vests to warn the Uchihas that they actually stood a chance of kicking their butts, even though no one would dare to.
She slipped her katana in its case and placed it on her right side as she walked outside to the dump called the Leaf. She was ready to kick some serious butt, Uchiha butt.

The Leaf wasn't the only place in trouble. Below the large village, was an advance version on the Leaf called Under Konoha. But unlike the Leaf, Under Konoha had someone hidden from Madara's grasp. A boy who could unleash his demon. An eight teen year old named Uzumaki Naruto. With his power, he could destroy the Uchiha once and for all. But there was one problem, he hated people as much as they hated him. He was banned from the Leaf because of his strange demon that lived inside of him. He wanted everyone to die. He didn't care for anyone besides himself.

"Mama, the demon boy is looking at me!"
The mother covered the eyes of her child. "Whatever you do, don't look at him straight in the eye!"
"Okay mama."
The mother and child ran off from a food stand as a blonde haired boy watched them leave from the steps of his apartment. He loved messing around with the civilians of Under Konoha, it made them go crazy. No one cared about his feelings so why should he care if they were afraid of him?
"Damn you Uzumaki!" Cried the food stand owner from across the street. "Quit scaring off my customers you demon!"
The Uzumaki rolled his dark blue eyes. "As if, you crazy old woman! Try to stop me!"
"One of these days I swear..." The old lady mumbled as she went back to working.
Stupid lady, stupid people of Under Konoha. Why can't the accept me? Why do they hate me so much? What has my demon done to them?
Irritated with his own thoughts, the boy decided to go on a silent walk by himself, as usual. He passed some more stands and a park where a few children were playing at. By the time he was done walking around Under Konoha, he arrived at the exit of the area. Maybe he escaped, he could start a new beginning in the Leaf, but Under Konoha's leader wouldn't like that.
"Tsunade would kill me." Naruto stated as he walked away from his only exit. "Her and the rest of the villagers."
He had no idea why he wasn't allowed to go the the village above, but he didn't mind. Tsunade told him people would hate him worse up there than they did in Under Konoha. As Naruto made his way home, he passed by some homes that belonged to his old classmates. A girl with the same colored hair as his worked in a fancy flower shop with her mother while her father worked hard as a Charka User. Naruto believed the girl was a Charka User too, but he didn't really care.
And a guy near Naruto's age that lived in the same apartment as him worked with his sister at a pet store. He had a dog that was bigger than Naruto himself. But why would Naruto care?
Walking by another house, Naruto also knew who lived there. A friend of the blonde girl that was a smart, but lazy kid. He lived with his father, who was friends with the blonde girl's father, and his mother who was cranky most of the time.
"What was his name..." Naruto thought as he paused in the middle of the street. "Oh yeah, his name is Nara Shikamaru!"
Naruto continued on walking. Why would he remember his name? Why did he feel jealous of Shikamaru's life? Was it because unlike Naruto, he had a family? Or was it because he was normal?
Naruto wished he could be friends with the flower girl, the dog lover, or even the smart guy. But he couldn't, he hated them as much as they hated him. Naruto had no chance of even thinking of being normal like them.
"Alone in the world." Naruto whispered. "Might as well be dead."

All over the Leaf were missing posters of an Uchiha. He had ruby red eyes and raven colored hair. While girls called him the "dream man", the rest called him Uchiha Sasuke, the prince of the Uchiha clan. He was drop dead gorgeous and could get any girl he wanted. But he was too busy to think about simple minded girls that drooled over him 24/7. He was missing for a reason: he ran away from Madara and his evil plans. Sasuke wanted nothing to do with the man and decided to escape. Even though he missed his older brother, Uchiha Itachi, he knew it had to be done. He couldn't stand Madara's idea of a perfect world and wanted to gain enough strength to bring down the mad man before he could unfold his plans.
"I hope Sasuke kun will come home!" A girl with long black hair whined to her friend. "I grew my hair out just for him!"
"Me too!" Said her friend. "I would do anything to just talk to him!"
Across the street from the fan girls, a cloaked man sighed. They were Sasuke's age and acting like that? Pathetic. Sasuke pulled down his hood lower as he walked in their direction.
"What will happen if he stays missing forever?"
"Oh gosh, I hope not! But if he doesn't come back, then Itachi will take over Sasuke's spot."
"But Itachi isn't as hot as Sasuke kun!"
"I don't really care," the black haired girl giggled, "all the Uchihas are smoking hot!"
Sasuke grumbled as he finally passed them. Even though Itachi was older, the role of prince was given to him by his deceased mother and father. They believed he would become a better leader than Itachi, and Sasuke wanted to make them proud.
"Mother... father..." Sasuke said as he made his way downtown. "I won't fail you. I will become a better leader than Madara!"
