Chapter 1- Uchiha Family Matters
A cool breeze. It was said that was all that is needed to start the most devastating of tornadoes.
Uchiha Mikoto believed in that. Her main example; Uchiha Fugaku. Her husband.
She did not love her husband, not now. There was a time that she would have done anything for him but that age had come and gone. All because of his actions towards her first son, Itachi.
He had turned her first born child into a monster. Not the type of monster that was blatantly obvious but he was a monster because of is lack of human feelings.
It had been so long since the last time she had seen him smile, laugh, yell out in pain, or give any type of emotion.
So long ago.
She promised herself that she would not allow that to happen to her other children; Sasuke and Kenpachi.
Her twins, that she loved so much, were so different. Sasuke always looking up to his older brother Itachi and his father. While it was Kenpachi that always seemed to question the rules that his father set down and looked at Itachi and his accomplishments with apathy.
In some sad way, she was glad that Kenpachi did not praise Itachi and as Sasuke did. In that way, she was happy.

Walking through the Uchiha garden Kenpachi truly appreciated the beauty and splendor of it all.
'If only Sasuke would look at it the same way.' Kenpachi thought to himself. 'He never truly looks around him, choosing to look up at Itachi.
Sighing he moved past the gardens and continued on his way back to the Main Building where he resided.
His black eyes swept across the Uchiha district as he walked. Looking at the children plying, their parents either working in shops, or running around assuming their ninja duties, the grandparents retired and living out their days peacefully, he felt at peace.
H e, on some days, would just stand out there and watch everyone passing by and the actions that they did. Of course his father would scold him about training to 'assume' the place as proper Uchiha Head. But he knew that even if he did train it would not be good enough as seen through the workings of Sasuke and the deeds of Itachi.
No one in the world was ever truly satisfied with the life they lived so they try to force their beliefs onto other people.
Caught up in his thoughts, he only briefly took to mind the fact that he was home.
Walking up the steps into his room he changed his clothes into something more appropriate for dinner. Throwing his black shorts and crimson short-sleeves shirt onto the bed he too his shower and prepared for dinner.
Getting out he put on a pair of long black slacks and a button up long-sleeves dress shirt on. Slipping on his sandals, he went down the steps for dinner.
'Well, let's hope that dinner isn't that eventful' Kenpachi thought to himself quietly.

The kunai landed straight on target. Perfect. Nothing less was expected from Itachi and he himself expected nothing less.
Straightening up he looked at the result of his training. He was getting stronger. 'It will be ready soon.'
"Sasuke you can come out now." Itachi said impassively. Turning around he waited for Sasuke to reveal himself.
Stepping out from behind the tree, Sasuke looked around the clearing where Itachi was training with wonder and awe.
"Wow. How are you able to do all of that Itachi? You are so strong." Looking up at his brother with an awed expression he waited for an answer.
Smirking with the response "Through hard work and training."
Still not convinced about that he went to ask Itachi another question but was cut off, "Where is Kenpachi, Sasuke?"
Frowning at the mention of his younger twin brother Sasuke spat out, "He was wondering around the village. I don't know why you are worried about him, I mean he never does any training with us and ever if he does he always questions what father has to say. He is a disgrace to our clan and family."
Curiosity that was evident in Itachi's eyes as he looked upon Sasuke, "Why do you dislike you own brother so much, eh Sasuke? Is it because of Father's workings and his lies of how disgraceful of he is?"
"Father is never wrong about anything. If he says that Kenpachi is a disgrace then he truly is."
Frowning Itachi thought to himself Itachi pondered this new revelation. 'If he is so easily influenced then he is of no use to me.'
"Come Sasuke we must return home for dinner. Everyone is waiting for us there."
"Coming Itachi."

Disappointment. Something that was seen in the face of the Uchiha everyday.
One would think that having three handsome and healthy children. One of which was a newly instated ABNU captain. But to him it was all a disappointment.
Itachi was a skilled warrior and ninja, yet got the feeling that he was too defiant of his orders which were assigned to him by the Uchiha clan.
Sasuke was never going to be as strong as Itachi in his eyes. After having the prodigy as a first son, he expected it for the next ones; he was disappointed.
Kenpachi. The boy was just a black mark on the clan name. He never wanted to train, always walking around and exploring; both of which were useless in eyes.
"Come on honey, dinner is ready." His wife called out for him. Pushing these thoughts aside he went to the dinning hall to eat.
His sons were all failures in his eyes.
Five people sat down at the Uchiha dinning hall.
The main Uchiha family.
The only sound in the hall was the chewing of food and the clinking around of silverware.
The animosity and tension in the room was not only noticeable, but also obvious.
Sasuke was glaring at Kenpachi while also trying to imitate Itachi and Father.
Itachi was stoically eating his meal while trying think of what was to come.
Mikoto was trying to eat in peace while throwing happy glances at everyone at the table.
Fugaku was glaring at everyone in the room.
Kenpachi was not oblivious to the events surrounding him but tried to look blissfully unaware at it all.
This was just one typical night at the Uchiha clan household.
"Kenpachi what did you do today. Did you accomplish any type of training?" inquired.
Swallowing his peas he answered, "Well I went down to the market district and looked around. I met up with my friend. His name is Neji. He is from he is a Hyuuga."
"I do not want you to interact with the members of the Hyuuga clan. They are inferior to Uchihas and you still have yet to answer my question about training Kenpachi." stared down at his son.
Looking at his father he answered in a stoic voice, "Yes I practiced the techniques that Itachi showed me last week and worked on my kunai and shuriken aim."
Listening to the conversation Itachi tried to think about his little brother.
"Father I managed to get the Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu! (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique). Do you want to see it?" Sasuke said in an excited voice directing the conversation from Kenpachi.
"We shall go after dinner. That way both you and Kenpachi can show me how much you have improved."
Sasuke looked disappointed that it would not be just him and father but at least he could upstage Kenpachi.
'There is no way that he has perfected the Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu Technique.'
"Itachi have you heard about the murder of Uchiha? It is most disturbing."
Meeting his Father's gaze he said in a very steady and even voice, "It is rather unusual and strange. Why do you inquire about it?"
Narrowing his eyes said, "Well I thought that you would be ore concerned. He was your best friend."
"Are you trying to imply something Father. The death of was very upsetting." Itachi stared down at his father.
Looking away from the gaze of his older son, "No of course not Itachi. I know that you would never betray the clan and family."
Seeing that the tension was starting to raise interjected. "Come on everyone lets finish dinner so that way we can see the improvement of Sas-kun and Ken-kun. You two are starting at the academy soon. That's exciting isn't it?"
Sasuke and Kenpachi looked at each other. Both having different thoughts.
'I don't need to go to the academy. It is for worthless children with no shinobi background. They will only slow me down.'
'Well I guess it will be nice to make new friends but then again it would mean that me and Sasuke would be competing all the time'
"Yeah sure it should be great Mother."
Standing up announced, "Dinner is finished let us go Sasuke, Kenpachi prepare yourselves."
Standing at the edge of the lake, Kenpachi stared out into the water. He felt so lonely. He couldn't talk to his family about anything that went on in his life because they never understood.
Sasuke was too brash and always did what Father said.
Itachi was just too distant and was never around.
Father was just not someone he could talk to.
Mother was caring enough but she had almost no reason to get in between he matters of the three brothers.
"Come now. Show us how much you have been training."
Sasuke stepped up to the edge of the lake. He took a look at look at Kenpachi before he started to form the hand signs for the technique.
He took a deep breath before releasing it and exhaling a fireball. "Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu!"
The fireball was about three feet all across. Smirking at Kenpachi as he stepped away.
"Good job Sasuke. You did well." turned to his other son. "Kenpachi you are next."
Walking to the lake, he concentrated. Making the signs with precision and speed.
"Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu!" He exhaled a fireball. The heat was intense enough to make the rest of the family flinch back.
The size of the fireball was nothing special at all as it was the same size as Sasuke's but it was the color of it that was interesting. It was white-hot in color.
The flames were burning even now as he cancelled the justu.
Turning around he faced his family.
"Well how was that?"
A.N.
Well this is the first chapter for me. As I am sure many people are confused about everything that is going on. A new story that follows the life of a brand new character that most will probably hate.
The story will follow the life and times of Kenpachi Uchiha. He will not be like most characters in the sense that he will be more powerful but it will not be overly done. He is pretty much a black sheep in the Uchiha clan. He acts like Shikamaru a lot, but he does train and what not.
The whole different color fireball will be explained in greater detail later on during the story. Hopefully it won't be too confusing.
When I was writing this chapter I was listening to Linkin Park's Numb.
I am a new writer so I hope that the updates will be every three or four days hopefully.
SO please read and review. The feedback will make me update sooner. Ja Ne.
