Blood is thicker than water
Summary: Through out his life Naruto was always looked down upon and punished for the mistakes of others. After a traumatic experience he finds himself obtaining a power belonging to the Uchiha clan. Wielding the power of the sharingan Naruto transforms the world from the inside out. Narutoxfemsasuke.
AN: So I got the idea for this story after reading a few dark Naruto fics, and decided to write one myself. Naruto will not be evil maybe a little but not completely. This story will somewhat follow the canon but not completely. Also Kushina will not be his mother and Uchiha OC will be. Also I have decided to make Naruto part of the Uchiha clan. But Naruto will change a lot throughout the story, and there will be some torture and lemons.
Chapter 1: The beginning
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto
Konoha, The village hidden in the leaves, the very first village. The village that began the coming on the other villages, the sand, the cloud, the mist and the stone. The elemental nations. Branching off many more smaller villages were than created, however our story begins in the center of Konoha.
A blonde haired boy swerved through the crowds of pedestrians only to receive harsh glares directed towards his back. This boy was none other than 5-year-old Naruto Uzumaki. On looks watched as he hurried through the swarms of people turning ever so often, making sharp turns here and there. Looking through the gaps he saw an alley way. Making his was there he turned his head around only to see a group of people hot on his trail. The tears continued to fall from his crystal blue eyes. Turning back quickly, but not quickly enough to notice the hefty man standing in his way. Colliding with the man the boy fell to the ground with a thud.
The large man turned around wondering what had hit him. Looking down he saw a small boy sitting on down. "Hey kid watch whe-
The man was cut off when he noticed who the boy was. His eyes quickly filled with hate while his fists clenched. "You."
Naruto gulped as the man took a step forward. His arm shot out grabbing Naruto by the color of his shirt lifting him off the ground.
Gasping as he was slammed against the wall of the alley Naruto looked around, he was surrounded by a group of ten men. Seven of them wearing jounin vests.
The man pushed onto Naruto's neck making him gasp for air. His small hands grabbed onto the opposing arm.
"You monster." The arm pushed harder.
"We're gonna kill you."
"You'll burn in hell."
Naruto coughed a wad of blood and spit as a fist slammed into his thin stomach then clenched his eyes shut as he was dropped onto the ground.
"Please stop." He whispered out, blood spewing down his chin and onto the ground below him.
Another man stepped forward this time he was dressed in the all too familiar ninja uniform making Naruto cringe.
"What was that?" The man bent forward his eye brows narrowed and hand shook in rage.
"Please stop." Naruto whispered again looking into the eyes of the opposeers. His eyes widened as his head was jerked up and a sharp pain coming from his stomach. "I'll stop when you're dead." The ninja growled pulling the kunai from Naruto's stomach and plunging it back in.
His eyes shut trying to friend somewhere better than this, anywhere was better than this.
Minutes felt like centuries as weapons were stabbed and ripped out from his body.
The pain slowly began to fade making Naruto open his blood shot eyes. He could see blood, his blood splashed against the walls of the surrounding buildings. His eyes drifted up to the figures moving to each one then focusing on a particular one. He was a tall slim man, looking to be around twenty-two but Naruto's main focus was the sword he held in his hands which was directed right at him.
'Why is it always me? What did I ever do?' Naruto thought to himself as the tears began to fall once again. 'Sure I pull pranks sometimes but I never hurt anybody.' His eyes traveled down the blade and it began to move down towards him, slicing the air.
'Someone please help me.' Naruto silently prayed to himself. Waiting for the final blow Naruto clenched his eyes closed.
After a few moments the blade never came. Opening his eyes Naruto looked up to the see the man's eye widened. "What?" The man spoke his eyes frantically moving around his body. "I can't control my-
He was cut off when his body collapsed onto the ground his lifeless face landing next to Naruto who tried to move but grabbed his stomach in pain.
"Truly disgusting."
The other men looked from the dead body of their partner to see a lone figure crouched above the alley. Each man grabbed a weapon glaring daggers towards the figure.
"We are just taking care of things you should leave, now." One of the ninja spoke looking back to Naruto.
"Sorry no can do." The figure spoke then disappearing making Naruto and his abusers' eyes widen. In a flash the men were cut down one by one. If one tried to make an escape they we killed more painfully than the others.
The figure flicked the blood off his own sword and slowly turned to Naruto who was doing his best to hide. "Hey it's okay, I'm here to save you." The figure stepped out of the shadows to relive a black haired boy who looked to be fourteen. His was average hide and an ANBU vest strapped to his chest. His eyes glowing red while three comma like mark circled around the pupil. He slowly walked towards Naruto and bent down infront of him.
"Hi my name's Shisui." The now identified boy spoke with a knowing smile. Naruto looked into his eyes as they faded into black. The boy held out his hand.
Naruto looked to the hand and back to the boy who smiled again. Cautiously Naruto tried to grab the hand but stopped when the pain made its way back to his stomach, which luckily stopped bleeding. Shisui's eyes widened and scratched the back of his head. "Oh sorry." Naruto looked up from his stomach to Shisui.
Standing up Shisui picked Naruto up and vanished.
Naruto peeked his eyes opened, he could see the familiar white walls of the hospital. Shisui walked forward to the reception desk and to the women who sat behind the desk.
"Hello, I would like you to treat this child please." Shisui spoke calmly. The women raised her help from the papers in front of her. She looked at the teenager then to the boy in his arms and nodded. Standing from her seat she called for a room and doctor. Naruto's eye brows furrowed, that isn't their usual response.
Shisui smiled down at him, his sharingan activated once again.
After walking into hospital room Shisui carefully laid Naruto down in the bed as the doctor grabbed a few bandages and began to wrap Naruto's waist. Grunting at the pain and tightness Naruto looked to Shisui who gave him a smile of confidence.
'Why do I feel so safe with him, I don't know anything about him?' Naruto thought to himself.
After the gauze was applied the doctor made his leave. Moments later the door opened again. There stood Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage with a blank face.
"Jiji." Naruto called out a small gleam in his eyes when he saw his surrogate grandfather. Hiruzen smiled down at Naruto. "Shisui, what happened?"
Shisui bowed. "A group of ninja and villagers attacked him again." Making sure to make his point with the word 'again'. "What happened to them?" Hiruzen asked looking to Shisui. "I delt with them."
"Naruto I'll be right back I need to speak with Shisui alone." With that the two walked out of the room and into the hall.
"Hokage-sama we can't let this keep happening, you need to do something." Shisui spoke firmly making Hiruzen sigh. "I know you want to protect him Shisui, but there isn't anything I can do without his identity coming out, which will make him in even more of a danger."
Shisui bit his lip to keep his self at bay. "Please let he adopt him Hokage-sama, he needs someone to protect him." The young Uchiha pleaded.
"We've gone through this before Shisui, both you and Kakashi have tried to adopt Naruto before, the elders will not allow it." Hiruzen spoke sadly. He wanted more than anything for Naruto to belong to a family. However with the council preventing such an act, much to his displeasure the best he could do was have his most trusted ANBU watch over him.
"Please, Hokage-sama." Shisui pegged. "I know you want him to be protected, im the one who will protect him I promise, just give me a chance-
Shisui was cut off when a wad of papers we put against his chest. Looking down he grabbed the handful of papers.
"Fine, I'll do whatever it takes, just fill out those papers." Hiruzen spoke. Shisui's eyes widen as he grabbed the pen from Hiruzen's hands and filled the paper work.
"Now I'll be going I have paper work to finish." The aging man spoke with a sigh and began to walk away only to stop at the end of the hall. "I want you to tell him about 'it'." With that he left.
Inside the room Naruto sat against the back frame of the rather uncomfortable hospital bed. His eyes wondering around the room taking in every detail. Hearing the door open his eyes focused on the person.
Shisui walked into the room and gave Naruto the same warm smile as he had before. The blonde haired boy's eye brows furrowed and his lower lip began to stick out forming an adorable pout, according to Shisui.
"What did Jiji want?" Naruto asked.
"Oh nothing really." Shisui spoke being very nonchalant. His hand scratched the back of his head as he took a seat next to Naruto who moved over avoiding the weight of the teenager.
Shisui's smile fell as he looked to the blonde whose smile had also fallen. "What's the matter Naruto?" He asked.
Naruto clenched his small fists and looked down to the blanket as it crushed under the pressure. "Why does everyone hate me to much?" Naruto asked looking up to Shisui his eyes becoming glassy. Shisui sighed his eyes down cast to his hands. "What do you know about the Nine Tails attack that happened five years ago?" He asked cautiously.
"The Fourth Hokage killed him and saved the village." Naruto spoke calmly.
"That is true but the Nine Tails cannot be killed. Despite being as strong as he was the Yondaime was still a human, no human can kill a tailed beast." Shisui continued until Naruto interrupted him. "Than how did he do it?"
Shisui's sweat dropped at the childish behavior. "The only way to get rid of a tailed beast is to seal them away. Seal them into another human." He spoke.
Naruto looked back down to his hands. "It's me isn't it?"
Shisui's frowned. "Naruto, I'm so sorry-
"WHY ME?!" Naruto shouted finally raising his head to look Shisui in the eyes, whose own eyes widened at the sight in front of him. Naruto's once baby blue eyes have now taken to a blood red color similar to Shisui's own pair of eyes. Though Naruto had a single tomoe around each pupil.
'The sharingan.'
Shisui put his hand on Naruto's shoulder giving a silent signal for him to calm down. "Naruto, you were chosen because the fourth Hokage believed in you." Naruto's sharingan eyes widened at the words. "He believed in me?" Shisui smiled looking down to the younger boy. "Completely."
"But then why does everyone hate me and leave me?"
Shisui hated the fact that others would hurt this child, they were fools, and arrogant bastards who took their anger out on a child because they didn't do shit when the real problem was around. "Well they're stupid, just forget about them alright?" The black haired boy spoke with an eye smile.
"What about you, are you gonna leave me too?" Naruto asked with a small pout.
Shisui smiled moving his hand off Naruto's shoulder and onto his head, ruffling his spikey blonde hair much to Naruto's displeasure. "Nope, you're stuck me." He spoke pulled a paper from his pocket and showing Naruto.
Name: Naruto Uchiha
Age: 5
Birthdate: October 10
Family: Shisui Uchiha (Brother)
Unknown to Naruto his sharingan faded back to his normal blue color. Tears began to slowly well in his eyes, the water dripping down to his hands which were still clenched around the blanket, they began to release the blanket. Naruto looked down as he felt the tears fall onto his hands. "What's the matter?" He heard Shisui ask.
Shisui watched as Naruto's head shot up. He didn't have time to register when he felt a small body thrown onto his own. Looking down he saw Naruto wrapped around his body, Arms holding his neck while his legs were tightly wrapped around his waist. "Thank you Ni-san." Naruto practically yelled out.
Shisui smiled brightly. "You're welcome."
Pulling Naruto off of him, which was a lot harder than you would think. Shisui put him on the floor and bent down to look at him eye to eye. Raising his arm and poked Naruto lightly in the forehead, a simple of affection he had seen him best friend, Itachi do many times before.
Stumbling back slightly Naruto pouted rubbing his forehead. Looking up he was Shisui smiling brightly at him to which he returned, forgetting about the "pain" on his forehead.
"Now how about we go home?" Naruto's brother asked to receive an eager nod from him. Picking his younger brother up he slung him over his shoulder careful not to hurt his wound. Putting his arms under his legs Shisui held Naruto on his back and disappeared with a swirl of leaves.
The brother appeared outside of a rather large house, the white and red Uchiha fan hung proudly over the door.
Looking back to Naruto, Shisui smiled and walked into the house.
"Wow." Naruto spoke as they walked into the house. The floor was covered in dark hardwood floor while the walls and ceiling were a light cream color. Windows covered a decent amount of the house, letting the afternoon light travel around. Setting Naruto down Shisui took his shoes off then dropping his ANBU uniform and tanto on a small table next to the door. Smiling down at Naruto who was still looking around the entranceway of the house. Grabbing Naruto's hand Shisui gave him a tour of their house, showing him the kitchen, family room, dining room, office and bathrooms.
They were now walking up the stairs to the second level of the house. Standing at the top Naruto could see a long hallway with many doors. Pulling Naruto lightly Shisui walked to the third door on the right and slowly opened it. Naruto looked around the room, there was a large bed in the center as well as a small desk, a dresser and bathroom.
"This is your bedroom, mine is the one across the hall you can come by anytime, but right now I have one last thing to show you." With that Shisui out a hand on Naruto's shoulder and the two vanished, reappearing at the back of the house.
The back yard was covered in bright green grass, while a small pond lay on the far left side. On the right was a tall tree with a swing attached to a branch. But the center of attention was the building at the back of the yard. Without speaking Shisui walked over unlocking the door and turning on the lights to reveal a large training room. Weapons were shown around the far side of the room, while targets were posted on the opposite wall. "This is where we will be training most of the time, I'll teach you everything I know, so when you start the academy next year you'll be the best." Shisui spoke with a thumbs up.
Later that night Naruto and Shisui sat on the back porch admiring the night sky. Sitting with their backs turned from the house, an Uchiha fan showed on both of their shirts. While Shisui was dressed in black pants and a black high collared shirt, Naruto was dressed in a grey high collared shirt and white shorts. Naruto mimicking his brothers posture sitting with his legs folder under him, stealing a glance from his brother every once in a while, until Shisui broke the silence. "Let's get to bed, it's getting pretty late."
Naruto nodded and followed his brother into the house.
Laying down in his bed Naruto closed his eyes a smile making its way across his face.
'I finally have a family.'
(Time Skip: 6 months)
It had been six months since Naruto had been adopted by Shisui. These six months were some of the best of his life, while it did take some getting used to we quickly adapted to the change. He also found out more about his brother, he was calm, cool and collected. He was introduced to many of the Uchiha clan members and had become close with many of them, surprisingly only a select few hated him. He was also introduced to Itachi, his brother's closeted friend, who was a prodigy of the Uchiha clan along with his brother. At the age of ten he was already a jounin. Nowadays Naruto spent most of his time in the Uchiha district, playing with some other the other children. Shisui and Itachi had told him about Itachi's younger sister named Sasuki, though they never met before he heard a lot about her from Itachi.
Shisui and Itachi had also begun Naruto's training. Teaching him about chakra, as well as the basics like water walking, tree climbing and leaf balancing. To which Naruto had discovered to be difficult since he was a jinchuriki, who had enormous chakra reserves.
But today Shisui and Itachi had promised to teach him his first real jutsu. Currently Naruto was waiting for his brother to arrive. Next to him stood Itachi wearing his usual emotionless face. "Itachi-ni, when is Ni-san gonna get here?"
Itachi turned his head to look at Naruto who had crossed both his arms and was glaring at no one unparticular. He hated when his brother was late.
"Be patient Naruto-kun he should be here soon." Itachi spoke calmly hiding a smile at the boy.
Seconds later Shisui appeared scratching his head. "Sorry I'm late." He spoke looking between his little brother and Itachi whose sweat dropped. "Let's just get stated Shisui."
Shisui sighed and looked down to Naruto. It was time to tell him about his sharingan.
After adopting Naruto, Shisui had told Itachi about Naruto awakening his sharingan. The pair decided to keep it a secret from everyone, including Naruto up until they started his training. Itachi looked to Shisui and gave a firm nod signally them to begin.
"Naruto, I want you to push chakra into your eyes." Itachi spoke setting a hand on Naruto's shoulder.
Furrowing his eyes brows Naruto obeyed and closed his eyes, focusing chakra into his eyes. He slowly opened them revealing a single tomoe in the left and two in the right.
'They seemed to mature without him even using them, it must have been from the kyuubi.' Shisui thought to himself thinking back to when he first saw Naruto's sharingan. Naruto slightly jumped back and rubbed his eyes. "Ni-san why does everything look so different?"
"Naruto, what do you see?" Itachi spoke.
Naruto removed his hands and squinted his eyes looking around the field. "I can see chakra and everything is slowing down a little bit." Shisui and Itachi most responded with a knowing smile. Both teens activated their own fully matured sharingan.
"Naruto, this is the sharingan." Shisui spoke looking Naruto in the eyes. Grabbing his tanto from his back Shisui moved it in front of Naruto's eyes making him look at his own eyes. Naruto saw his own eyes had become similar to Shisui and Itachi's. 'The sharingan.'
"So does this mean I really am an Uchiha?" Naruto asked not taking his eyes off of his own.
"Yes."
.
Naruto stood next to Shisui and in front of Itachi as the trio stood at the end of the dock that sat above the water of the river that flowed through Konoha.
"Let's try again Naruto." Shisui spoke looking to his brother who had bandages wrapped around his hands and a few band aids covering his face. They had been out here for two hours practicing fire jutsus, well practice for Naruto as Itachi and Shisui have already mastered most of the fire jutsus.
Naruto nodded. 'Snake, Ram, Monkey, Boar, Horse, Tiger.' Taking a deep breathe, making his chest puff out Naruto slammed his hands together and blew air from his lungs making a small amount of fire come from his mouth. The fire began to morph into a small ball making Naruto's eyes light up. However the fire soon extinguished its self. Making Naruto slump down.
"Naruto how about we move onto something else, we can try again some other time." Shisui spoke softly making Naruto grunt in disapproval.
"One more time." He spoke with determination, his own sharingan activating unconsciously. Taking a breath his chest expanding once again.
'Fire style: Fire Ball Jutsu'
A large fireball flew from Naruto's mouth flying over the lake, turning the water into a thin mist. Smirking Naruto released his hand and watched as the fireball vanished away. Smiling Naruto turned back to Shisui and Itachi who both gave him a thumbs up.
Shisui walked casually through Konoha with Naruto sitting on his back, his arms wrapped around Shisui's neck. "Ni-san can we go play." Naruto spoke loudly pointing to the playground seen in the distance.
Shisui cringed at the loud yelling coming from his brother but nodded walking towards the park filled with children.
"Go have fun, I need to go talk with Itachi. I'll be back in an hour." Shisui said setting Naruto down and poking his forehead lightly. Grumbling Naruto rubbed his forehead and walked into the park while Shisui gave a small laugh and vanished via a shunshin.
Naruto walked into the park, he could see a number of children playing on the slides and swings, while others played in the large field. Walking past the play structures and towards the field he shoved his hands into his pockets, something he took from his brother.
The first boy he saw was laying down in the grass, his arms folded behind his head while he stared up at the sky watching the clouds. His hair was in a short ponytail, sticking upward. Next to him sat a blonde haired girl with pupil less aqua eyes. He watched as she dropped flowers covering his small body. Next to her was another girl, she had bubblegum pink hair and bright green eyes.
Looking at the three Naruto walked closer. The brown haired boy moved his focus from the clouds above to Naruto, brushing the flowers off his body he should up.
"Who are you? I've never seen you around before." He spoke making the two girls look to Naruto as well.
"I'm Naruto Uchiha, what's your name?" Naruto spoke calmly. Both girls picked up on the last name and stood up.
"I'm Ino Yamanaka and this is Sakura Haruno." Ino spoke pointing to Sakura who stood shyly behind her. "And he's Shikamaru Nara."
Naruto turned back to the now identified Shikamaru who sighed. Turning around Naruto saw a few more children running towards them. Three more boys, the first one had wild brown hair and two red fang like tattoos on his cheeks while a small white dog trailed behind him. The next was a pugidy boy with light brown hair holding a bag of potato chips. The last boy had dark spikey hair and a pair of black sunglasses on his face.
"Hey Shikamaru, who's the new guy?" The first boy spoke.
"This is Naruto Uchiha, Naruto this is Kiba." Shikamaru spoke then pointed to the other boys. "That's Chouji and that's Shino."
"Don't forget Akamaru!" Kiba shouted pointing to the dog who gave a bark.
Shikamaru sighed once again. "Troublesome." Kiba smiled at Naruto and looked back to Shino and Chouji. "Hey Naruto wanna have a race?" Kiba asked.
"Sure." Naruto said shrugging his shoulders.
Naruto, Kiba, Shino, Shikamaru, and Chouji stood next to each other while Ino stood in front of them.
"Go!"
The four boys sprinted off while Shikamaru walked slowly behind, completely forgetting about the race. Kiba and Naruto sprinted through the field, Naruto silently thanking Shisui for the endurance training. After them Shino and Chouji ran after, chouji stopping everyone in a while to grab and new bag of chips.
Seeing a large rock ahead Naruto ran right while Kiba smiled and ran left with Akaramru hot on his trial. Jumping over rocks Naruto ran along the path. Sadly his foot misplaced making him fall onto the ground and down the small hill into a lower part of the park. Tumbling down the hill he landed face first in front on a tree, his but sticking up in the air.
"What are you doing?" Raising his head Naruto brushed the dirt and grass off his body looked towards the voice. Standing above him was a young girl who looked to be about his age. She had spiky black hair that was held in a high pony tail, for clothing she had a light blue long sleeve-high collared shirt and white shorts and dark blue ninja sandals.
Pulling himself up Naruto plucked a few twigs from his hair and scowled at the black haired girl. "What's it to you?" To his surprise the girl clenched her fists and walked towards him. "Nothing you baka."
Naruto stood up to face the girl. "Tch, how am I a baka?" The girl smirked and pointed back to the top of the hill.
"I'm not the one who fell down the hill…baka." The sarcasm practically dripping from her words. "Yeah and what are you doing over here all alone?" Naruto asked with a smirk. The girl lauched forwards grabbing Naruto by the collar while Naruto grabbed the collar of her shirt too.
Unknown to the pair Shisui and Itachi sat hidden in the tree. Looking to each other they jumped down landing next to the two glaring children.
"Naruto, what are you doing."
"Sasuki."
Both Naruto and Sasuki looked to see Itachi and Shisui standing there. Looking back to one another they let go of the other and jumped back.
"That's Naruto!?"
"That's Sasuki!?"
They both yelled to each other pointing fingers. Itachi and Shisui both gave a small smile.
"Ni-san that's Sasuki you said she was nice, she is totally not nice." Naruto yelled scowling at the black haired girl who crossed her arms and glared back. "Ni-san there is no way that's Naruto, this guy is a total baka." Sasuki spoke never taking her eyes off the blonde Uchiha.
Itachi sweat dropped while a tick mark appeared in Shisui's forehead. Walking over to his brother he picked him up and threw him over his shoulder making Naruto squirm and hit his back. "NI-SAN PUT ME DOWN!" Naruto yelled.
Hearing laughter Naruto turned his head to see Sasuki laughing and smirking at him. Growling Naruto flayed more though Shisui kept his grip. Itachi looking down to his little sister he smirked at Shisui and grabbed her too, throwing her over his shoulder making her squeal the same as Naruto had before. Hearing laughter she quickly turned her head to see Naruto laughing at her this time.
Shisui and Itachi walked into the Uchiha district each towing a sleeping child on their backs. It was late in the night when they finally got home, after an awful dinner including the exchange of food being thrown across the table courtesy of the two kids that were currently asleep.
"They are pretty cute when they are sleeping aren't they, Itachi?" Shisui said smiling back at his brother whose mouth was hanging open and a small amount of drool falling onto his shirt.
"That's only because they aren't bickering." Itachi spoke looking to his friend.
(Time Skip: 6 months)
"Naruto wake up, it's your first day at the academy, you don't want to be late do you?"
Naruto's eyes shot open when he heard his brother's voice from the other side of the door. Jumping out of bed and grabbed a pair of white shorts and a black shirt. Pulling the door open he ran down the stairs and into the kitchen.
"About time, we have to leave in fifteen minutes." Shisui said grabbing a plate and a piece of toast he sat them on the table and went to get ready himself. Finishing his breakfast Naruto brushed his teeth and rushed back down stairs, wrapping his ankles in bandages he pulled on a pair of black sandals, smiling as he heard his brother make his way downstairs dressed in his jounin outfit.
"Ready?"
Naruto nodded and opened the door and ran out. Shisui smiled closing the door and walked behind his brother as they walked or in Naruto case ran other than stopping every few minutes to wait for Shisui, to the academy.
.
After being left by Shisui Naruto stood in front of his designated class. Moving his hand up he grabbed the door nod and opened the door. Walking into the room he could see a few of his friends including Shikamaru, and Shino.
Walking up to steps he could a seat next to Shikamaru who was fast asleep making Naruto's face fault.
'Lazy baka.'
Hearing the door open he looked over and immediately frowned. There was Sasuki Uchiha scowling as usual. He watched as she took a seat on the far right. Getting up from his stop he walked over taking a seat behind her and smirked. Grabbing a piece of paper he balled it up and launched it towards her head.
Smirking when it hit, however that smirk quickly faded when he saw their teacher looking at him.
Sasuki slowly turned around and smirked.
The brown haired man cleared his throat and begun speaking. "Hello class, my name is Iruka and I will be your teacher for the next six years. We will now began will roll call."
After a decent amount of time Naruto heard his name called.
"Naruto Uchiha."
Hearing a few famine squeals Naruto's face faulted as did Sasuki, only because she didn't understand why any girl would ever like Naruto-baka.
"Here." Naruto spoke in a calm voice making a few of the girl's squeal even louder, much to the dislike of the class.
"Sasuki Uchiha."
Sasuki raised here hand. "Here." A few of the boys looked towards her each winking. While Naruto glared at them, like anyone would ever date someone as cold as her. Looking back to Sasuki Naruto glared and stuck his tongue out to which Sasuki returned.
After four hours of sitting in class and hearing their sensei talk they class went outside for lunch.
Naruto walked out of the classroom with the rest of the class taking a seat underneath one of the trees in the courtyard. Pulling out his food he looked around only for his eyes to fall on the familiar black hair of Sasuki who sat alone at the far picnic table. Taking a bite of his sandwich he kept his eyes trained on her, watching her every movement. Feeling eyes on him he turned his head to see a pink haired girl staring at him.
Scowling he quickly turned his head away and back to Sasuki who was now looking back at him. Sticking his tongue out again, he stood up and walked away finishing his lunch then walking back to class.
After another hour of teaching the students now stood in two lines in front of two targets.
"Alright class today we will be doing some shuriken practice, the more you get to hit the target the better you do." Iruka spoke setting a few boxes of kunai in front of the children. "Now do I have any volunteers?" Two hands shot up each belonging to a young Uchiha.
Sasuki and Naruto stepped forward, glaring daggers at one another. "Alright Naruto and Sasuki, you two will get ten shuirken each try your best to hit the bulls eye." Iruka spoke grabbing his clipboard to mark their scores.
Naruto and Sasuki each grabbed ten shuriken, readying themselves they threw the ninja weapons towards the targets. A smirk formed on Sasuki's face.
"Sasuki 9 and Naruto 8."
Scowling Naruto huffed and walked back in line. While Sasuki folded her arms and laughed.
.
This time Naruto and Sasuki stood in front of one another in a hand to hand combat practice, and once again glaring at one another.
Iruka sighed. "Alright Sasuki, Naruto you know the rules taijutsu only."
Once their sensei dropped his hand the pair sprinted towards each other. Cocking her fist back Sasuki aimed a punch straight for Naruto's face only from him to duck and swept her legs out from under her making her fall down. Sasuki jumped back and watched as Naruto ran back towards her. Throwing a punch Naruto smirked as it was about to hit Sasuki, it faded when she grabbed his arm and kicked him in the jaw sending him back.
Shaking his hair as dirt fell out from in. Naruto stood up and brushed himself off then ran back towards Sasuki. Each Uchiha exchanging kicks and punches, small bruises forming on either one. Naruto ducked from an oncoming punch but was kicked in the side.
Sasuki jumped over a kick only to be punch in the face. Each one stumbled back.
"I'll admit for a baka, you aren't half bad." Sasuki spoke wiping a small trail of blood from her lip.
Naruto smirked. "I could say the same for you." Wiping the blood from his forehead Naruto looked towards Sasuki and ran at her catching her off guard.
Sasuki's eyes widened as Naruto landed onto of her staring into her eyes with his sharingan eyes. Wait sharingan? Sasuki's eyes widened when she saw his eyes.
'How does he have the sharingan?'
Sasuki flinched as Naruto cocked his fist back aiming for her face. Waiting for the hit but it never came.
"Alright, Naruto wins now preform the unison sign." Iruka spoke with a sigh of relief his students didn't kill each other on the first day of class.
Sasuki watched as Naruto's sharingan faded back into its usual color. Naruto lowered his fist and stood up holding his hand out to Sasuki. Taking the hand Sasuki stood up to look eye to eye with Naruto. They both held out their first and second finger about to hook onto one another until both Uchihas grabbed onto one another's collar once again, making Iruka and half of the class face fault.
"Like I'd ever do that with a baka like him." Sasuki said.
"If I'm a baka than what does that make you as you are the one who lost." Naruto said making Sasuki growl.
"Now that's enough you two." Iruka spoke up grabbing both of their fists making them release their grips.
"Tch whatever." They both said in unison.
(Time Skip: 1 year later)
It was early morning when a now seven year old Naruto sat on the back porch with his brother who was dressed in his ANBU uniform getting ready to leave for a mission.
"Sasuki will be dropped off in a few hours, don't cause too much trouble alright?" Shisui spoke looking to the clouds and back to his brother he gave him a toothy grin. "No promises Ni-san." Naruto said making Shisui laugh loudly and ruffle Naruto's hair.
"I'll be back tomorrow morning, Itachi should be back in a few days too, so training shouldn't be that long of a wait." Looking back to the sky Shisui sighed. Today was the day he would execute his mission, tonight was the meeting for the Uchiha clan elders and adult members. He had to stop it, to protect Konoha, and his brother that is his job. "I'll be going." Shisui spoke calmly standing from his seat until Naruto grabbing his wrist.
"Be careful Ni-san." Naruto spoke, something didn't feel right about his brother. Shisui nodded and poked Naruto lightly in the forehead.
"I'll be back before you know it." Shisui said with a smile before vanishing.
Naruto smiled and returned to looking up at the sky.
(With Shisui)
Bending down on one knee Shisui stood before the elders and third Hokage. "As it stands the coup is still in motion, I've done my best to find a way out of it but they will not give in, they don't trust Konoha as a whole anymore."
Hiruzen sighed. "I see." Danzo turned towards him. "Hiruzen what's your plan now, if we don't think of anything fast it's going to be too late. I know as the head of the village you have to make tough decisions but now is that time."
Shisui's head shot up. "Please, I may have a solution, a plan I would like to try out if you would let me." Hiruzen looked towards the young Uchiha. "What is it-
"There is no time we cannot leave this in the hands of a child, there are no other options right now." Danzo spoke cutting him off. "What is this plan?" Hiruzen said ignoring Danzo.
"I will use my mangekyo sharingan on the clan." Shisui said his sharingan activated the three tomeos spinning around rapidly.
The elders' eyes widened at the term. "Do you understand what you are saying, you will forever be banned with using the jutsu on your own clan." Hiruzen spoke.
Shisui sighed deactivating his sharingan. "I know but it is worth it to protect what is most dear to me." He spoke thinking back to Naruto. He was just a kid, he couldn't let anything happen to him. "Lord third, please."
"You have your mind set to this, do what you must, I won't stop you." Hiruzen spoke.
Shisui closed his eyes, relief washing over him. 'Naruto, I swear I'll protect you.'
"However if you want to stop, you can step out, we have time still to think of alternatives." Hiruzen said making Danzo narrow his eyes. Shisui nodded and vanished.
Reappearing on the top of the trees Shisui looked down at the clan members below him. 'I'll cast a genjutsu on the entire clan, I should be done quickly.' Activating his sharingan only to see a swarm on explosive kunai headed his way. Shunshining away Shisui reappeared on a branch deeper in the forest. Grabbing a kunai as another ninja jumped down.
Ducking under a swipe from an arm Shisui jumped to a nearby tree only for another ninja to attack him. Blocking the hit he turned and ran towards the empty field at the end of the forest.
Landing in the grass Shisui watched as six ninja jumped out of the woods landing a few feet in front of him. He could tell from their masks just who they were. 'Root, so it's-
As if on cue the aging man walked out of the forest. "As fast as always, I see how you earned your nickname, Shisui of Teleportation."
"Danzo, why are you getting in my way?!" Shisui yelled his fist clenching in anger.
"All of you stand back." Danzo spoke, the six ninja quickly obeyed.
"Kotoamatsukami…a powerful genjutsu that traps the victim without then even being aware." Danzo continued stepping forward making Shisui clench his fist tighter, now drawing blood. "Your eyes will be mine." Danzo rushed towards Shisui his right hand raised to grab Shisui's eye only for his hand to be grabbed by Shisui. "I can't let you interfere with the plan the jutsu will wear off once I'm finished."
Shisui turned around only for his eyes to widen when a fist smashed into his stomach, making a glob of blood spurt from his mouth. Stumbling back Shisui grabbed him stomach which was dripping with blood.
"Such a powerful just, but such a shame to waste it." Danzo spoke appearing in front of Shisui who didn't have time to move until it was too late, his right eye was pulled from the socket, blood flowed down his cheek and down to his chin. 'Damn I can't let this happen.' Grabbing a smoke bomb Shisui threw in to the ground and disappeared. The ANBU looked towards their leader and nodded each sprinting off after Shisui.
Jumping from branch to branch Shisui felt his body began to weaken. Stumbling on the next branch he felt his body falling to the forest floor, landing with a thud. The six root ninja landed on the tree tops above him.
"Remember aim for the legs not the face."
Nodding the ninja threw a series of kunai and shuriken at Shisui.
"No I can't lose." His remaining eyes shout open and the three tomoes began to spin forming a four pointed pinwheel. A large green skeleton like beast began to form around him as the kunai and shuriken were deflected with ease. Soon the skeleton began to form muscles, knocking down trees. The rib cage of the beast opened up shooting out green bullet like projectiles, instantly killing four of the root members.
Shisui gave a small smirk and felt d=his body give out collapsing to the ground. The last two ninja ran towards the body but were both killed with a slice of the neck. Itachi stood jumping towards his friend and picking him up. Vanishing Itachi landed as the cliff by the far side of the village. Standing up Shisui looked to Itachi and gave a small smile.
"It's too late to stop the coup, if war breaks out in the leaf other nations are sure to attack, I tried to put a genjutsu on the clan but Lord Danzo stole my right eye, I suspect he'll come for my left one as well…That's why I want to give it to you, my closest friend." Shisui spoke pulling out his eye.
'Shisui.'
Handing his eye to Itachi, Shisui smiled. "Don't give me that look, even without my eyes I can still see you. Itachi, please protect Konoha, the Uchiha name, and my little brother." Itachi nodded a few tears falling from his eyes. Reaching behind him, Shisui grabbed his sword and handed it to Itachi.
"Give this to Naruto, will you and tell him, I'm sorry I didn't make it back this time." Itachi nodded again grabbing the sword.
"I accept it. What will you do now?" Itachi asked looking to his friend his sharingan flaring. His eyes widened when he saw Shisui slowly stepping back.
"If I die, several circumstances with change. I've already left a note behind."
"Wait Shisui!" Itachi yelled stepping forward to Shisui. "Don't try to stop me Itachi." With that Shisui took a final step letting himself fall off the cliff. Itachi ran forward reaching his hand out trying to grab his friend.
Realizing it was too late Itachi closed his hand and stood up, his eyes closing. A sharp pain was felt in his eyes while the tears fell.
Both of his eyes shot open. The three comma marks spinning rapidly and turning into a three sided pinwheel. Itachi Uchiha had obtained the mangekyo sharingan.
Naruto and Sasuki sat on one of the many benches that lines Konoha. Naruto looked up into the sky, feeling a knot in his stomach.
Sasuki looked to her rival and frowned. "What's that matter with you?"
Naruto looked to her, his eyes narrowed. "Something doesn't feel right."
ADD BREAK
Hiruzen and Itachi walked through the Uchiha district to Naruto's home. It had been one day since Shisui's death and Naruto had yet to find out.
Hiruzen knocked lightly at the door after few minutes Naruto opened door, shocked to see the Third and Itachi. Naruto raised an eyebrow. "Jiji, Itachi-ni what are you two doing here?"
Itachi looked down to Naruto and bit his lip. "We need to talk."
Sitting down on the sofa Hiruzen looked sadly at Naruto. He is going to go through a lot of pain losing his brother, he just knew it. "Naruto-kun last this morning a body was found in the river." Naruto looked strangely to the Third. "After investigation, we discovered the body belonged to Shisui Uchiha, he killed himself last night." Naruto's eyes widened then returned to normal. His head hung down, his bangs shadowing his eyes.
"No you're lying, Ni-san would never do that." Naruto's head shot up his own sharingan flaring wildly.
"Naruto, I'm so sorry." Itachi spoke handing Naruto Shisui's sword. "I know he would have wanted you to have this." Naruto looked towards the sword but shook his head.
"No, you're lying, I know you are." With that Naruto ran out of the house tears pricking from his eyes, his sharingan still activated.
'Everything is a lie.'
.
Naruto sat at the end of the dock, where he and Shisui used to train when he was younger. His legs we swung over the edge, every once in a while kicking the water making a small current. His head faced the water as the tears flowed freely. Wiping the snot that dripped from his noise and closed his eyes as memories of his brother came flooding back. The times went they went to get ramen or dango, when they would train together and Naruto got hurt Shisui would always make him feel better. Naruto knew full well that his brother was one of the strongest Uchiha alive today, so why would he kill himself.
He promised Naruto he'd never leave so then why did he?
He felt a chakra source behind him but made no movement to acknowledge it. "Hey."
Sasuki.
She walked closer, frowning he had yet to say anything to her. "Hey, I'm talking to you Naruto."
Still nothing, walking closer Sasuki put her hand on his shoulder making him turn around. She was that his cheeks were stained with tears while his eyes held his sharingan. "Naruto, what happened?" No matter how hard she tried, telling herself she hated him, she did care about him he was her best friend, her only friend.
Naruto shook his head and looked back to the lake. Sasuki took a seat next to him, but continued staring at him. "You can tell me, I'll listen." She spoke in a calm voice.
Naruto clenched his fists. "Ni-san, died." Sasuki's eyes widened. "Hokage-sama said he committed suicide, but I know he's lying." Sasuki frowned. Why would he kill himself, he was always so happy.
"I swear I'm going to kill whoever did this to Ni-san."
It had been five months since the death of his brother and Naruto has changed drastically, rarely speaking to anyone including Itachi and Sasuki, must to her displeasure. In the academy he never said a word, even when the teacher asks him a question. When Sasuki does he is training, nonstop.
Itachi has tried to speak with him as well as the Third Hokage but they received no anvil. Naruto has yet to touch his brother's blade thinking of it as his most prized possession. He trains often with his sharingan and now has two-tomoes in each. He has also not spoken a word about his brother since he spoke with Sasuki that fateful day.
However today was not that day, Naruto ran swiftly through the Uchiha district. Turning left he stopped in his tracks, the lights were out.
"That's strange, it's too early for everyone to be asleep." Naruto spoke to himself, elsewhere Sasuki was thinking the same thing.
Running along the road Naruto's eyes widened. Bodies. Bodies littered the streets. The walls were painted with blood. Activating his sharingan Naruto continued through town hoping to find the person who did this.
Meanwhile with Sasuki
Sasuki ran down the streets towards her house, silently praying her mother, father and brother were okay, they had to be. Naruto still lingered in the back of her mind, she hoped he was alright too. Finally seeing her home she pushed herself faster.
Reaching the front door she quietly slid it open and took off her sandals.
"Kaa-san? Tou-san? Ni-san? Are you guys here." She questioned, jumping when she heard a thud and ran towards that direction.
Standing outside of her parents' room she slid her hand on the door knob. 'Someone is in there.' With a shaky hand she slid the door open and walked in. Her eyes widened, there in the center of the room lay her parents dead bodies and over them stood her brother, her beloved big brother, Itachi.
"Itachi, Ka-san and Tou-san, who could have done this." She spoke the tears falling from her eyes. Hearing a wising noise she felt her shirt ripped and a shuriken stuck into the wall.
"Foolish little sister." Itachi spoke glaring down at his sister. "Itachi, y-you did this? WHY?" She screamed. A smile formed at Itachi's lips. "Simple, I wanted to test my abilities."
"Test your abilities?"
"That is correct, I wanted to know what the true power of the mangekyo sharingan is." His sharingan transformed into the three pointed pinwheel. Looking his sister in the eyes he put her in a genjutsu.
Sasuki looked around she could see bodies dropping around her, watching the deaths of her fellow clansmen being slaughtered by her brother.
AS the jutsu ended she clasped to the ground. "It's true, you're a monster." Picking herself up Sasuki ran from the room and out into the main district, tears still falling from her eyes.
With Naruto
Naruto jumped from roof top to roof top but stopped when he saw familiar black hair. Squinting he felt another chakra source jump down in front of her.
'Itachi?'
Running closer he noticed Sasuki crying while trying to run away. Itachi grabbed his blade and ran towards her. Taking his key Naruto jumped down, blocking Itachi's sword with a kunai. Looking into Itachi's eyes he noticed the strange pattern they had taken, they were different from his own. "Itachi, what are you doing, what's going on?" Naruto questioned.
"No Naruto, run. It was Itachi, he did this!" Sasuki screamed looking to her blonde haired friend. Naruto looked back to Sasuki. Turning back to Itachi only for his eyes to lock with his.
"Tsukuyomi."
When Naruto opened his eyes, everything was red. Looking closely he could see two figures standing on a cliff, moving closer he saw it was Shisui and Itachi standing there.
"Shisui, your my best friend, that is why I must kill you." Itachi's sword punctured Shisui's heart, then stomach, then hip. Naruto watched as his brother died again, and again, and again, and again, AND AGAIN.
Slamming his eyes shut to make the awful image so away. He could still see it, his brother beating killed in front of him and he couldn't do a thing. The sword slashed and sliced Shisui's flesh spraying blood everywhere.
"This is Tsukuyomi, you will be watching your brother die for 72 hours. The only way to do this is by getting the mangekyo, you achieve that by killing your closet friend."
Those words were etched into Naruto's brain.
Once the genjustu finished Naruto collapsed to the ground watching Itachi leave while Sasuki called for help.
'Itachi, one day I swear, I'm going to kill you."
