I do not own Naruto. All I own is my own words.
Hi again I would love to thank everyone that reviewed my story so far, you guys rock. I hope my next few chapters don't scare you off this will contain some dark moments for poor Shino and Naruto. I do promise life will get better for the both of them as time goes on.
Warning: there will be some mild abuse in this chapter, nothing harsh I promise but there will be some hitting and some bad words.
I would like to say sorry for how long this took to update, I had some major writers block and almost deleted the whole thing. But I think I got it and am trying to finish up the chapter for you all, thank you so much for your reviews they mean a lot.
Chapter hope?
Dark eye's locked on to bright ocean blue eye's,he turned to looked over at the other boy with shades on his covering his eye's and smiled. His smile was fake and the boys knew this to be true, as he spoke to the woman of the house about adopting the was happy but Shino could spot the fake in a person from a mile away, he looked to Naruto and shook his head no this wasn't a good to Shinos horror the man had gotten approved for the adoption just after Tsunade saying his name, Naruto froze he knew the name and it shook him to the core.
"Naruto,Shino I would like to the man who is taking you home. Your adoptive father Mister Fugaku Uchiha, he's taken a liking to you two and thinks you have potential to be great men."She smiled at the two boys who were frozen in fear, it was Naruto who broke the silence first.
"H-Hello Mister Uchiha, I'm Naruto Uzumaki p-pleased to meet you." Naruto stuttered a few times shyly but managed to be quit polite about how he said everything.
"And you young man?" Mister Uchiha raised a brow as he looked to Shino who was gritting his teeth this man felt off, and he didn't like him already.
"My name is Shino Aburame,sir." Shino managed his deep-throated response making the man tense up at his last name and the tone taken.
"Aburame? The Aburame, the one whose family did the group-" He was cut off by Naruto kicking him in the shin, the taller man yelped in surprised pain but straightened up and smiled at the two boys.
"Yes the very one sir." Shino said in a tense voice, earning him a smirk from the tall Uchiha.
"Well I'm glad I can take you into my home, and you to young both of you will be very loved him our home, I promise you this." The tall dark-haired Uchiha smiled at them, this smile was different it was dark and evil but Tsunade didn't seem to notice this.
"Well then lets finish up the paper work and get these boys to a good home than." She ushered the man out of the boy's room with a sweet smile on her face, Naruto hugged closer to Shino shaking in fear of what was to come.
The papers were taken care of the boys all packed and in the car, ready to start a life the new nothing about. Shino gritted his teeth in silence making sure not to anger the man before him, Naruto on the other hand almost sobbed out Tsunade thought it was just because he was leaving.
"We hope you boys will have a good life, take care of each other and your new family we will miss you both, be safe okay." Tsunade whispered the last part kissing each boy on the head before shutting the door, the care started up and they drove off looking at the man in the they were to call father.
"Listen up you lowlife's,the only reason I'm taking you in if for the rep. I need the good image look, you two are to be perfect and if you're not I will make sure you suffer for it. You are to never be late, never get bad grades, you stay clean at all times, and there will be no arguing with me or your new mother. Do we all have and understanding, cause if we don't I can pull the car over and show you what I mean by punishment?" Fugaku smirked at the boys in the back as both of them tensed up and replied.
"Yes Mister Fugaku Uchiha, we both understand." Shino and Naruto said at the same time making the man before them smirk even wider.
"Please I'm your father now, so call me father." The smile this man had on him as he said the word father made both boys feel sick.
"Yes father." Both boys said in a calm voice, again they were rewarded with a smirk.
The drive took a bit longer then the boys thought it would,they were so focused on making sure they knew how to get back to the orphanage just incase this guys pulled something. They didn't even notice they had stopped, the man pulled open the back door for the boy but before they could leave the car he spoke up.
"You are a Uchiha now, you are to never use your other name again am I clear?" The boys looked at the man who looked at this with distaste and hatred, gulping before they answered the man before them.
"Yes father." Both of this managed to say with a straight face on and voices never wavering.
The man before them smirked, this plan was working out for him they were young enough that the media would love it. But they were old enough to know if they messed up he would do the worst he could to make them regret it, the three of them walked in to the huge house or mansion. Both boys gasped out loud at this only to receive a firm slap to the heads, the older man wiggled his finger to say no emotions like that boys gulped and rubbed their sore heads walking along side the man, Shino hid his distaste for the man well but Naruto's eyes said it all he was pissed.
The three of them walked into a white-walled room,it had no pictures of family, no color at all just held a sense of silence. There in the middle of the room was a white couch that looked so stiff to sit on, the boys looked at the women who was sitting straight up holding a book in her looked away from her book for a brief moment only to see the two boys, she stood up clapped the book shut and walked forward to them.
"I'm Mikoto Uchiha,I will be your mother its nice to meet you boys."Mikoto was a fair-skinned woman with long, black hair with bangs hanging on either side of her face to roughly frame her cheeks and black eyes. Mikoto was a very gentle and kind woman,but could be stern and strict when she needed to be. The boys would learn that she was the better parent over the years, they would grow to love her as a mother but hater for never stopping the bad things from happening.
As the boys bowed their heads in respect to the women before them, Mikoto smiled waved a hand and ushered the two boys to the couch. Mean while there so-called adoptive father went up the stairs to the second floor, they could hear some yelling and a loud thud, then they heard foot steps coming down the stairs. Three people rounded the corner two of them were younger one their age, the other a few years older than them.
"Boys I would like you to meet your two adoptive brother." Father said in his most stern voice making the other two boys look over with serious eyes, and an unwavering blank face.
The two boys bowed their heads and announced who they were.
"I am Itachi Uchiha your older brother, pleased to meet you both." He bowed deep only raising his head to look to the younger boy, motioning for him to do the same as he.
"I am Sasuke Uchiha, I am the same age as you are I hope we get along well." Sasuke bowed deep raised his head to his father who smiled kindly at his son nodding they did well.
"Now you two do the same." Mother said in her stern voice, making both boys stand up straight and announce who they were,but remembering what father said out side they were Uchihas now.
"I am Naruto...Naruto Uchiha your new brother nice to meet you." He said straight-faced and bowed deep earning him a good boy from the man called father.
"I am Shino Uchiha...Pleasure meeting you." Shino grunted out this was not how he was supposed to speak,he was then dragged up by the collar of his shirt and told to do it again.
"I am Shino Uchiha your new brother it is nice to meet you." He said in a monotone voice devoid of any emotion, just like he was supposed to do.
Father smirked knowing this was all to easy, he patted Itachi on the back and told him to get the boys into their room. His eldest son 'hn'ed' and stood tapping Sasuke on the shoulder to fallow him out, the other two boys got the hint and bolted with the other two brothers.
Once up the stairs Itachi turned to the other two boys, they half thought they might get beat by the serious look in Itachi's eye's. But instead received hugs from the older boy, and a gentle smile this went for Sasuke to.
"I'm sorry you have been dragged into our home boys, but I promise you if I can I will make sure you never get hurt." Itachi said in a determined voice his brother looked at him as if hey were a hero.
Itachi walked the two boys to a cherry wood door, opening it up he flipped on the lights and walked in. He pointed out a few things, like the beds, bathroom that was built in so they wouldn't have to leave the room, the window's which had a balcony to it. The huge walk in closet that you could practically live in, and then there was the TV that was hidden out of sight by a huge family picture.
"How big is that thing?" Naruto's jaw dropped in awe of what looked like a 50' inch TV.
"Its big that's what we have in all the rooms, but father hates us watching anything but the learning stations. So my recommendation would be to make sure he's asleep before you flip it to anything you want to watch, oh and you can always hang with me or Sasuke to talk it will be nice to have others around." Itachi said with a wide smile on his face almost showing off those perfect white teeth.
"Why did he pick us?" Shino's deep voice must have sounded angry, hidden behind the jacket and sunglasses you couldn't really tell what he looked that his brows rose in question, and he seemed stiff with tension.
"He wants to look good for the press, he has to have the perfect life or well what seems to be the perfect life in his home. Our father is a big company man the Uchiha corp, that does all those weapons for the military yeah that's him. He has to have everything look perfect even if it's not, trust me you will know just how messed up home life can get,soon." Sasuke was the one that spoke up this time, he had a small smile on his face as he looked at Naruto. Shino moved to his now brother and held him away from the other two, looking at them with a glare that they couldn't see.
"Shino don't worry I think we can trust them, they have our eyes." Naruto whispered into Shinos shoulder, trying to comfort the boy hugging him.
"I don't like this Naruto." looking to the blond beside him with worry.
"We will be fine, as long as we stay together we will be okay." Naruto smiled his bright happy smile, making both Uchiha's cover their eyes from the amount of bright light coming from the boy.
"Wow. you could blind someone with that smile,Naruto." Sasuke said with a small smile on his face, Itachi looked on as his brother step forward and shook Naruto's hand.
"Yeah Shino says that to me all the time." He giggled a little his happy tone making everyone calm and relaxed, that's why Shino liked Naruto so much, he could make anyone calm and relaxed in seconds.
But this was short-lived as the boy's door was slammed opened with a loud bang, everyone in the room looked up and saw a seething father. He glared at his two sons who's smiled dropped in seconds to the thin tight lipped line, Naruto tensed as his smiled dropped into the same on the other hand looked over at the man still with a smile on his face, he wouldn't let this man get to him at all.
"Are you smiling at me boy,in my house we do not smile we are serious people. The Uchiha's show no emotions and you will learn this today, I will make sure you never forget your place and how to act." Father seethed out venom lacing his voice as he yanked Shino up by the collar of his shirt, the man called father raised his hand and SMACK.
"Aaah!" Shino yelled his face stung his sunglasses had hit the wall so hard they broke,his nose was bleeding from the was dropped not so nicely on the ground from his place in the air, he grunted out in pain as his ankle twisted.
"If you ever break from the Uchiha way again I will make sure you are punished, do we have an understanding Shino my son." The older Uchiha said the last part as if it was painful to say it,gritting his teeth Shino got up off the floor whipped the blood away and smiled at the man before him.
"You little brat, how dare you not listen to me you will pay for this." He raised his hand once more and began beating Shino, over and over again but shino never stopped began to cry,he want to protect Shino so he ran right into one of the harder hits. Shino's eyes widened as did the other two boys eyes, they didn't think anyone would fight their father EVER.
This act only made the man before them more upset he soon took off his belt, he began beating both boys with it. Screams filled the house but neither of the boys stopped smiling even as their brother protested these actions, earning them an evil glare and a beating as well this went on for and hour or so. Until Mikoto cam looking for her husband this was the only time she would stop him, when she knew he had taken it to far with his anger and hate.
"Honey stop look at them, we can't do a press conference with them like this!" Mikoto yelled grabing her husband's hand that held the belt with in it, he looked at her his eyes softened a bit and he backed off. Mikoto was the only one that he wouldn't hurt, his anger and hate was always linked to the boys and she would never understand why nor would she ask.
"Fine,clean them up." He said in a whisper to her kissing her cheek and walking away, only looking back to see all four boys with a smile on their faces making the mans anger rise once more.
"Boys can you stand?" Mother asked them looking on with worry in her eyes, they groaned but didn't move at all.
"No mom I think he got up good this time." Itachi smiled at her blood dripping from his mouth,his eyes darker and filled with pain.
"Miss-I mean mom can you just help us please." Naruto started to say her name but remembered what she had said and feared another beating, he flinched when her hand met his now scared cheeks.
"I am so sorry, your poor face took a lot of damage I have to take you to the I think I have to take all of you, I will be back in a minute I must tell your father." She said raising from the ground only to be stopped by Shino's voice.
"He will never be my father,fathers don't do this mine never did." Shino snapped out at her in a whispered tone not really able to say it to loud, not for the fear part but for the fact that his rips hurt him to much to breathe or talk.
"I'm sorry Shino but he is and will remain your father,'sigh' weather you like it or not." Mikoto said in a depressed voice she hated that her husband did this to her boys, but she was afraid that if she did stop it he would turn on her.
Mikoto walked out of the room to go talk to her husband about the hospital and what she would tell them, she came back after a long time with help to take them down the car. They drove off in a rush fearing the blood loose had become too much for Shino, he was starting to not be able to breath at the hospital they were admitted with the doctors thinking they had been in an accident, Shino mumbled under his breath about how she wouldn't be his mother either.
The boys all spent a week in the hospital the press got wind of them being there and tried with all their might to talk to them, one person even broke into the room through a was a body guard though that protected the boys he had sliver hair, dark eyes almost like a silver black color, tall with lengthy arms and legs. He had on a black suit and mask to match,the whole time the man dragged the reporter out he had what looked like a porn book in his hand.
"What are you reading?"Naruto was the one who broke the silence, of the jaw dropping moment.
"It's the best book in the world." The man eyes smiled at them, they could tell it was a smile from his eyes closing shut with a crinkle.
"Oh yeah can I read it?" Naruto said with a beaming smile, the man almost fell over from the shock of his answer.
"Sorry kid, this books just for adults."He snorted trying to hold back a laugh at the boys face, it was all scrunched up in thought he almost looked constipated.
"So you read porn?" Itachi laughed out as the mans face the only part that showed started to become red.
"It's not porn its romance, kids these days don't know shit about good books." The man snapped out cradling the book in his arms like it was a child.
"Whatever."All four boys said with a sigh.
"Whats your name silver?" Shino spoke up earning him a glare from the man before him, he guessed it was over the little nickname.
"I am Kakashi Hatake I will be protecting you boys." He said opening the book up once more and sitting down in a chair across from the beds.
"Why?" Again all four boys spoke up asking this.
"Cause your mother didn't want anyone hurting you." Kakashi said with a smile in his voice.
"That's funny did you just get hired on?" Sasuke asked his head turned to the side in question.
"Why is that funny?And yes I got hired on this morning to watch you four brats." He put his book down and looked at them, he heard they had been in a wreck but they didn't look like it.
"Its nothing but I would watch it around our father, you will find out soon enough." Itachi said with a straight face to Kakashi who tensed up, he wanted to ask the young teen what he meant but left it alone.
The week had passed by the boys had come home and Kakashi noticed little things here and there, such as the boys would laugh with him while their father was gone but never with him around. Or how they would sometimes have cuts or dark marks on their bodies when he would show up for work, on one such day Shino had been limping but was portending not to be hurt.
"Shino come here." Kakashi Whispered from a closet on the second floor.
Shino grunted and walked over to it, only to be dragged into the room and to have his pants yanked down. He nearly screamed out in fear and in pain but was merely surprised when he felt ice, Kakashi looked at him a serious face he had never seen on the man before.
"How did you-," Shino was cut off as the ice was moved higher on his leg, making him cry out a bit in pain.
"How long has he been doing this Shino?" Kakashi sounded angry almost murderous at the notion that the boys were being beaten.
"Since day one,but Kakashi you can't do anything we need you around." Shino whimpered out.
"What do you mean?" Kakashi looked down at the marks on his lower legs they were bruised and bleeding a bit, he gritted his teeth how could he not stop this?
"He would hurt you Kakashi." Shino said in his calm tone still sounding like it held pain in it.
"I'm not so sure of that Shino I was hired for a reason." Kakashi said in his as he came to know it as parent voice.
"I know, I do really but you can't he could do something worse I just don't want to lose anyone else,please kakashi." Shino turned his face to kakashi a pleading look in his eye's that begged for silence and understanding.
Kakashi didn't reply but understood he knew the Uchiha well enough to know that Shino was right to worry, Kakashi finished up his cleaning of Shinos bruised before he let him leave the room Kakashi hugged him close, stroking his hair and whispering that everything would be alright. Shino could only hope he was right, Kakashi would be known to the four boys as a father they always wished they could have.
