The reason this was written, Calculus class did not hold my attention.

/side note: I have a poll up on my profile about another story; I would be very happy if you would take the time to take a look at it. /
I really enjoyed writing this piece; I love creating Shisui's funny side but to put a downer on everything I always remember he is a very haunted type of character in the true story. No worries though, he is not a haunted character here.
... sorry that I started a new story instead of updating others; bad mustsleep, bad.
Please enjoy the first chapter of
The most important person in the life of the Sixth Hokage (the title wouldn't fit)
As told by that person –Shisui Uchiha.
Z.z
If there was one thing he hated to be called it was 'ba-bee cousin'. When he was a child he couldn't pronounce the 'a' sound in baby and I have made him suffer since. My sole purpose in life is to make my ba-bee cousin suffer. You must think I am a cruel, evil, taking-candy-from-a-baby, uncourageous person. I am all but the last.
It takes a surmount level of courage to go before your boss, the most powerful ninja in living history, and the hokage of Konoha and call him 'ba-bee' to his face. He could easily pin me to a wall and turn me into a pin cushion (assuming he could catch me, which he would for he is a very patient, cunning person.) Of course, it is lucky for me that he is a patient person, or I would be long, gone and buried multiple feet below the surface. That is supposing I had a body after he was done.
You must be wondering why he hasn't offed me yet. The truth is my dear, ba-bee cousin is blessed to have me. He may not acknowledge it, but it is the truth. When he was ten I stood before the council of Uchiha elders (backed by a butt-kicking Mikoto) and was able to force them into admitting that Itachi was not yet ready to take the chunin exam. (He was, but there was no need to further alienate him from his peers.) Why had the elders listened to me? Besides the fact that Mikoto was known for untasteable toxins, they didn't want the only known, mind-controlling Uchiha against them. A brilliant move on their part (if I do say so myself.)
If I had not made such a grand stand, Itachi would have become a pariah of his age group and other jealous ninjas. For surely, at the rate Itachi was going, he would have ended up being an ANBU captain, maybe even at an early age of thirteen. If that had happened, my sweet, peaceful, tender ba-bee cousin would have broken and become a psychotic mass-murder and missing-nin.
Yes, that's right. I saved my baby cousin from the horrid life of living in underground bases and befriending weird, freakish people that might have spread some odd, skin discoloring disease to him or who might have tried to eat him (though on that note, they would not have succeeded, my cousin is just that good.)
My point is: I saved my cousin from the horror of ANBU (until much later) and his sanity. Due to my actions, I probably saved myself as well.
For who would a psychopathic killer go for first; his BFF (Best Friend Forever) of course. Everyone knows psychopathic killers cut ties with those they are closest to and the person he was closest to was me, although probably not by choice (at least not at first.)
You see, he was completely fascinated and 'taken' with his little brother; in fact, if there had been a choice between me and little Sasuke I would have undoubtedly lost. (If it were to be between big Sasuke and me I would still loose…)
Anyways, I forced my presence upon the reclusive Itachi, no doubt saving him from becoming too socially awkward and Sasuke from becoming too attached (don't get me wrong, Sasuke is very attached but it would have been much worse if I had not stepped in…Trust me.)
As you can see, the hokage owes me his sanity and the sanity of his little brother. He may not recognize this consciously but subconsciously it is there. Every time the shuriken misses a major artery, or the wall gets broken instead of my head, I see it in his eyes.
People would see this as one of my redeeming qualities if they knew, but sadly the only person I make this claim to is my ba-bee cousin. That just proves how humble I am (another quality of my beautiful persona, I must add.)
People would be bowing to me on the street corners. I'm too cool for that though. I have enough followers already; there is no need to steal Itachi's and Sasuke's fan clubs too.
Of course, there are many other reasons as to why Itachi hasn't sent me away with a shuriken in my chest yet. For one, I'm the only one who dares to spar with him…
I guess I should correct my statement. I am the only one who dares to spar with Itachi on a regular basis. (I'm excluding Naruto, but I believe Itachi takes sadistic pleasure in torturing the boy, which is why he 'arranges' a spar once a month with him. This is not to say that Itachi takes no sadistic pleasure in terrorizing me, but Naruto would have never tried to fight Itachi if he were not the present hokage.)
There have been many cases of challenges to Itachi though. Some of the most rememberable were the fights between him and Rock Lee, the she-woman beast (aka the fifth hokage), and Kakashi Hatake. The reason why these people challenged him? You should know and if you don't, well, I'd hate to ruin a good story. But it had been my doing. And the cause of those fights is just another reason why Itachi keeps me alive.
In fact, I was blessed to be the godfather of Itachi's children due to what caused Kakashi's wrath. Not by Itachi (for he would have named Sasuke) but by his beautiful, cunning, and powerful wife. Who is the only person Itachi listens to excluding me (and Sasuke.)
His wife is the most obvious reason as to why my soul still exists inside of my body. He would have never gotten anyone near as good, if not for me.
Like I said, he is blessed to have me.
When his daughter asks for a story about their love, I usually begin the day he proposed to Sakura. (And I take great enjoyment from explaining how both ended up caked in mud and loosing Mikoto's engagement ring.) But the truth of it is it did not start there. Nor was it the day she bore their first child, or the day she smacked him at the altar during their wedding ceremony.
No, it started many, many years before that.
It started before either of them knew that they were meant for each other.
It started with me.
Of course, facts of my birth would probably bore you so I shall jump to the most important beginning, the day Itachi Uchiha met Sakura Haruno.
