Naruto: Sins of the Father
It has been raining upon the Hidden Village of the Leaf for days. The air was humid and sticky and fog has sprung up within and around the village. A figure appeared among the fog walking towards the main gate of Konoha. He walked past the large doors and under the archway connecting the two doors. He wore a black trench coat that went down to his ankles. The collar of the jacket was popped up, going all the way up to the back of his head. The coat was buttoned up to hide what was underneath. He walked into the village not being paid any attention to.
Anzen Shuji walked down the streets of Konoha to meet up with the rest of Team 8. He took a small detour he wanted to walk by a house he never lived in. A house that he would never grow up in, a house that he would never come to after school or after missions. A house he never knew.
His route took him a bit out of his way to meet up with his team members. He still had some time before he had to rendezvous with the rest of Team 8. He sat on a pair of steps that were across from his old house. He sat there and stared. All he could do, for the moment, was sit and stare. Across the dirt street was nothing but a dark empty house. There was nothing there to look at now. No signs of his should've been life, or his mother. He sat there staring at his devastated past.
A man walked in front of Shuji's view of his old house. Shuji stood up and approached the figure with caution. The figure slightly turned towards Shuji as he made his way to him.
"Can I help you?" Shuji asked.
"No. Just visiting. Actually, do you know the lady that lives here?"
"You mean the one that used to live here?" Shuji said.
"What do you mean?" The stranger asked.
"She died 13 years ago."
"Oh I see." The man said as he took off his black trench coat.
At that moment Shuji noticed the billowing tails of a pink head protector around the stranger's left arm.
"Where did you get that head protector?" Shuji asked.
The stranger looked down at the head protector tied around his arm.
"I got this the first time I came to Konoha. It was given to me by the woman who used to live here. Uchiha Nohara.
"That woman was my mother." Shuji said.
The stranger's eyes widened.
