prologue
The ANBU sighed as they walked into the Uchiha compound, under the orders of burying the dead in the unusually fresh graveyard. All of the ANBU assigned the clean-up assumed Itachi had been burying the dead when the Akatsuki member responsible for killing his intire clan, save for him and his younger brother, stumbled across him and halted his greivences and that that was how the graveyard had come to be, placed in the only open space in the compound next to a lake that was nearby the entrance gate.
Kakashi sighed again, running a hand through his hair as he looked around him at all the blood and bodies and wondered yet again how the younger Uchiha had managed to run through it in order to find his parents and older brother. He noticed a small, white haired, young girl that looked to be about the same size and age as 9-year-old Sasuke lying on top of another, black haired, little girl. Both were covered in blood and unmoving, as expected of the dead. However, the white haired girl's back was covered in severe, and still freshly bleeding, injuries visible only because of the absolutely shredded outfit that she was wearing, which looked surprisingly like an ANBU uniform.
Kakashi sighed and walked over, dreading having to bury such young children, when he bent down and picked up the white haired girl with surprising ease for a child of that age, when his eyes widened in shock, surprise, and horror. The little girl's pulse was unmistakable though, even though it was so faint. A fellow ANBU member walked up and shook his head at the significantly damaged body of the white haired girl, before asking if he was okay or if he needed someone else to take care of the children for him. He shook his head and suddenly ordered the man to check the pulse of the black haired child, when the man silently shook his head conferming the child was dead, he sighed. In response to the questioning stare of the man, he said he wanted the entire compound checked for any more survivors and that he was taking the white haired child to the hospital imedietly.
When he started to walk away from the other child though, he was shocked when the white haired little girl started to struggle weakly and he noticed that the farther he went from the black haired child the more she struggled, until he was forced to drop her after she bit him hard enough to draw blood. He frowned, wondering how in the world the child was still able to struggle after receiving such severe and debilitating injuries,which included a slice across her vocal cords. When the child signed "my sister" before staggering towards the black haired child and falling on her knees next to the child before attempting to pick her up. When that failed, she signed "please help me get her to the hospital" using specific Uchiha call signs that indicated she was either a member of the Uchihas or a close friend. He sighed, realising that she wouldn't go to the hospital without her sister and he walked over, picked up both girls, then used his chakra to get the the hospital in 2 minutes, a trip which would normally have taken about five with-out the aid of chakra.
The nurses and medic nin rushed around frantically trying to stabalize the girl, learning in the process that even though she had fallen unconcious the white haired girl still wouldn't let the dead body of her sister be taken away from her.
3 days later
Kakashi walked in to check on the white haired girl that the hospital staff and, strangley enough, the hokage and the comander of Konohagakure's ANBU, codenamed panther, had identified as being Yuki, a frequent runaway from the hospital anytime she was injured during training. However, an intristing tidbit the hospital staff didn't know was that she was refered to by both Sasuke and Itachi as nee-san, but that she wasn't actually related to them at all. Not only that, but she was also officially the youngest current ANBU member in Konoha at the age of 9.
