Chapter 7: A new start part 2
Mikoto was humming a familiar tune, as she moved about the kitchen, preparing her families lunch. As she sang, her mind began to think about when Sasuke first awoke. They still couldn't find a logical reasoning for the young Uchiha's sudden illness. She was pleased however with how energetic he seemed to be this morning, when he came down for breakfast. He didn't seem to have any problems when he and his brother went out for training. She soon began to feel abit indifferent however, as the days towards his entrance ceremony, at the ninja academy was fast approaching. Part of her wanted to get him tested once more by the doctor, before school starts; but another wanted to fully trust her son when he said there wasn't anything to worry about. She sighed deeply, and looked up to gaze out the window in the kitchen.
"Alright Otouto, how about we call it a day, huh?" Itachi panted as he dropped to the ground, leaning back against a tree. His brother, also tired and exhausted, soon followed his lead. After they rested for a few minutes, they got back up again to continue their training. The Anbu teen had taught the young boy and fire jutsu's, along with making the ones he'd originally mastered even stronger. Sasuke in turn, began teaching his brother the Chidori technique. Although it took some time, Itachi was able to master it, just before almost passing out. The two had worked themselves to a high point, and now feel proud at how much they had done.
"Sure nii-san, I think it would be best if we stopped for today." The younger panted out, long returning to his younger form for half an hour, the two decided to transport close to their home, rather than walk. The two ate, bathed and rested for the reminder of the afternoon.
Fugaku sighed as he made his home and straight into the kitchen for a drink. Greeting him his wife who was watching the dishes, he sat at the table, as Mikoto finished and was now setting up his lunch.
"How are the boys doing today?" he asked as the plate of food was placed in front of him, with a glass of lemonade. His wife grabbed a glass for herself, before joining her husband at the table. Sitting down, she answered his question."
"They seem to be doing just fine. In fact they went out for training early dismorning, and just returned about half an hour ago. Sasuke doesn't seem to be having any more problems, and seems ok…but."
"But?"
"I don't know; call it a mother's worry. But I just think that there's something more going on that were just not finding out."
Fugaku looked at her in the eye, and could immediately sense the great worry she had for her son. He had to admit himself, that the actions of the young Uchiha did put everyone on high alert that night. Adding to the fact that he was able to recover, only after one day's full rest. Telling them he was feeling better, and the better and there wasn't anything to worry about, did raise a lot of suspicions with the father's mind; but he thought it best to question the young one's decisions. And with that, he continued on with his lunch, telling his wife about his day at work.
Sasuke yawned as he sat up in bed, gazing at the night sky through his window. It was now quarter to eight and the young boy awoke only five minutes ago. Slowly, he raised his hand and placed it to the side of his head, as he felt a small headache fast approaching. 'If I keep going through past memory's every two seconds like this, I'm going to get the biggest headache in the world.' The young boy thought, as he closed his eyes, and sought to find peace within his mind. 'I wonder when would be the best time to inform the Hokage about what's going what's going on… maybe I should wait until Itachi has to meet with him again. But then again, I don't when that would be. Sigh, I'm starting to worry too much again. Besides, nii-san probably already has them planned out anyway, as no need to worry.' And with that, the boy layed back, and enjoyed the night sky.
Itachi too had had also awoken from his long nap, not long after Sasuke. His mind had finally calmed during his nap, and has already started planning as much as he could. He knows that his brother would most likely continue to worry for him, until this matter of the Uchiha's is done. After having many thoughts about Sasuke's past vision's the eldest did a few stretches, and got out of bed,
making his way to the younger one's room. After knocking on the door, he went in when a voice called out to him, to enter. He smiled as he made his way too little one's bed, and sat on the edge.
"hey little bro, did you sleep well?" He asked, as the other boy rubbed his right eye.
"You'll still thinking about all that happened to you, aren't you?" Itachi asked quietly, to his younger sibling. The sibling turned his gaze to his lap, bangs shielding his face from view. Silence took over for a while, both lost in their own thoughts of what happened before, and what will happen again. A knock on the door, interrupted their thoughts, as their mother Mikoto poked in her head in.
"Sasuke, Itachi are you two ready to eat dinner?" She asked, wondering if they still might be hungry after their heavy training earlier today. She would have awoken them earlier, but she figured it would be better for them to get their sleep. Especially since, Sasuke was still growing and recovering from his sudden illness, and Itachi; who was always doing heavy training in Anbu and hardly gets any rest as it is.
