CHAPTER TWO

THE UCHIHAS

After almost falling down the stairs, Izumo and Kotetsu took my hand and led me to the compound.

"What? Who's this?" A woman's voice asked.

"She doesn't have a name, but the hokage said that the Uchihas have to give her a home." Izumo said.

"Give her a home? But why?" A man's voice asked.

"We found her at the gates. She bumped into them. She's blind."

"Do you even know anything about her? What if she's a spy?" The man's voice asked.

"She's a blind five year old girl. She's not a spy." Izumo said.

"And the Uchihas were picked for this?" the man asked.

"By the Hokage him self." Kotetsu grumbled.

"Then I guess we can't say no." the man said.

"He said that she will go to the academy to become a ninja." Kotetsu said.

"Well she can't become a ninja if she can't see. So we'll just have to teach her to see." he said.

"Okay, you do that. We need to leave, Izumo." Kotetsu said.

"Right." Izumo said. I heard the door open and shut.

"So you're blind, are you?" the man asked. I nodded.

"Can you talk?" he asked.

"Y-yes." I said.

"Well then, you can call me Fugaku." he said.

"And I'm Mikoto." the woman said. "This is Itachi and Sasuke. Itachi is six and Sasuke is almost one."

"Hello." a boy said. He must have been Itachi.

"Hi." I said.

"So you don't have a name?" he asked. I shook my head. "We should give you one. How about Yuki? It means snow." I grinned and nodded my head vigorously.

"And you don't have a last name, either?" he asked. I shook my head again.

"How about Uchiha?" Mikoto suggested. She sounded pleased. I smiled and said "Okay."

"Here, I'll show you to the guest room." she said. "Follow me." so I followed her and managed not to bump into anything.

"We'll start your training immediately." Fugaku said. So we did. We found out that my chakra nature was earth so I would be able to see with my chakra.

"Yuki, Try to predict my movements." Fugaku said. Well I tried to but I ended up getting thrown back with a kick.

"Try to see with your chakra. Feel what's around you." he said. I tried doing it. I could almost sense his leg coming at me. I dodged, but his fist still collided with me. I'd most definitely have bruises in the morning, but oh well.

After about three hours of training, Mikoto interrupted and said that she enrolled me into the academy. I'd start tomorrow.

"You are in Itachi's class, Yuki." she told me.

"Okay." I said. Itachi was off someplace- training by himself.

"That's enough for today. It's getting dark. You may go." Fugaku said.

"Okay." I said and went back into the house, using my almost perfected new vision type to not bump into anything. Even though I couldn't see what things look like, I could see where they were- as long as they were connected to the ground. But it wasn't actually complete yet, so it was a bit blurry or sometimes I wouldn't be able to see an object at all and I'd trip over it or knock into it.

Anyway, I'd be going to the academy tomorrow. It's kind of unnerving. But I can't say I'm not anxious. Because I am.
