The Boy In The Orange Jumpsuit.
Chapter Two – Meet Sasuke.
xXxXxXxXxXxXx
Sasuke Uchiha was seven years old. Too young to know about the ways of the world really. Too innocent to think about the fact that bad things even existed. His childhood had been an idyllic paradise so far. His mother spoiled him rotten and his father was a brave General in the army of their great leader, Orochimaru-Sama. His older brother Itachi would one day join that military force. All was right with the world in Sasuke's eyes. That was until the night his father told them they were moving.
They had all been sat around the dinner table, eating onigiri and rice, and his father had just popped out with it.
"Children, Mikoto darling, we're moving to the countryside." He'd said. It all sounded quite cheerful and well meant, but Sasuke liked his home. He had friends that he played with, like Temujin, Kidomaru, Sakon, Ukon and Jirobou. He played with them all the time. His older brother had said it would be an adventure to go and live in the countryside, but Sasuke was not so sure. The day had come that they were leaving to go to the countryside and Sasuke had finished packing his things. The maid, Rin, had helped greatly of course. Sasuke, however, still didn't really want to go.
His mother appeared in the doorway.
"Sasuke darling, we have to get going. We're going to be late, and you know your father won't be happy if he isn't there to supervise the movers." His Mother told him. Sasuke sighed. He looked at Rin, who gave him a reassuring smile.
"Okay Mother." Sasuke said softly. He got up from his bed, and picked up his favourite ball, then walked down the stairs for the last time.
"I'm going to miss everyone so much Mother." Sasuke told his mother earnestly.
"You'll make new friends where we're living Sasuke. Don't worry you'll have so much fun." Mikoto said cheerfully. Sasuke sighed as he sat next to Itachi. Itachi was reading a history book that had been written by the great Orochimaru-Sama, and looked lost in thought. Sasuke turned to look out of the window of the car at the scenery.

What seemed like such a long time later Sasuke was staring at his new home. A large house in the middle of nowhere. He felt someone ruffle his hair. He looked up at Itachi.
"It'll be alright once we get used to it little brother. Remember that our father does good work for our nation and for our great leader Orochimaru-Sama." Itachi said gently. Sasuke nodded and went to explore his new home.

Later that day, Sasuke was looking out of his bedroom window. He could see people digging in a garden. There was a barbed wire fence around them. Sasuke blinked. He looked at Rin, who was unpacking his things.
"Rin-Chan?" Sasuke asked. Rin looked around at Sasuke.
"Yes Master Sasuke?" Rin replied.
"That farm over there is really strange! The children all look weird! Everyone's dressed in orange and digging up the ground!" Sasuke exclaimed. Rin blinked and looked out of the window where Sasuke pointed. Rin gasped in shock. Sasuke wasn't sure what about. Then his Mother came in.
"What's wrong Rin?" Mikoto asked.
"There Mistress!" Rin exclaimed. Mikoto looked out of the window at the 'farm' that Sasuke had been talking about.
"Oh." Mikoto uttered. Sasuke looked at his Mother and Rin curiously.
"What's wrong Mother? Can I go and see the strange children? Maybe I can make friends and play with them!" Sasuke questioned. Mikoto looked horrified at the thought.
"N-no! Sasuke darling, they are a bit strange you see. You don't want to play with them really." Mikoto stuttered out. Sasuke looked at her in confusion.
"Okay Mother." Sasuke replied, and jumped down from the bed, where he'd been looking out of the window. He left the room and Mikoto Uchiha looked at Rin coldly.
"You are never to mention that farm again." Mikoto stated.
"But Mistress, it's not a farm." Rin said softly.
"If Sasuke thinks it's a farm then you'll let him believe it. Is that understood?" Mikoto told the shaken girl. Rin nodded politely.
"Yes Mistress." Rin uttered. Mikoto left the room and Rin carried on unpacking for Sasuke. Her hands shaking like a leaf.

Itachi and Sasuke were sat in the kitchen eating, when a woman dressed in an orange jumpsuit came in. She carried a basket full of vegetables, and she looked as though she'd seen a million lifetimes worth of suffering. Mikoto stared at the woman in disbelief.
"I bought vegetables ma'am." The woman said softly. Her blond hair was long and tied in pigtails. Sasuke stared at her for a moment.
"You're from the farm right? Is it nice to work on a farm?" Sasuke asked cheerfully. Mikoto stared at the woman.
"Put them over there." Mikoto said coldly. The woman shuffled over and placed the basket down. Then she left. Mikoto didn't look happy at all.
"What's wrong Mother? She didn't seem mean! Did you not like her?" Sasuke asked.
"You don't need to worry about that Sasuke. Just finish your breakfast." Mikoto said sharply. Sasuke looked suitably cowed and carried on eating. Itachi gave his little brother a comforting look, as Mikoto stared at the vegetables.
