For your question yeah they are all 5 years old but Itachi thinks based on their pictures that Daichi is a little older than he looks and Sayuri a little younger but no they are 5-year-old sextuplets : )

Michiko POV

We had been walking through the Fire country for the past week. I was tired and hungry but Ryuu was too stubborn to admit that we were never going to find Itachi and go back home. Ryuu was so stupid I mean we didn't even know how he looks like or even have the slightest clue as where he could be.

I could tell we were close to the boarders of the Fire country and I had read a lot to tell that we were close to the Hidden Sound Village and I knew that's not somewhere we would want to be. I had to convince Ryuu that it was time to start walking back home before something bad happens.

"Ryuu this is useless you know we are never going to find him and to be honest I could care less if we do. So lets go back home please," I tried knocking some sense into him but obviously it wasn't working.

"Michiko don't be stupid we have come so far. We cant just give up right now I know we will find him and bring him back home so mom can marry him." Wow Ryuu was a little more stupid than what I thought.

"Have you even thought what mom is going through right now? She is probably freaking out because we left. Not to mention that when we get back we will be in so much trouble." I hadn't thought about all that I wonder what mom was doing right now and if she missed me as much as I missed her.

"No, because when we bring father back she will be so surprised she wont even remember we left," Ryuu was so sure we were going to find him but you didn't have to be a genius to know we weren't even close to finding him.

"You don't even know what he looks like. For all we know he could be dead," I stopped walking and raised my arms in frustration.

"He is not dead!" His voice changed completely and he glared at me with such hatred that I backed up a little.

After that I decided not to bring up the topic for a while and we continued walking in silence. This forest had an eerie feeling to it and I kept feeling someone was following us. Ryuu was so lost in his own thoughts that he probably hadn't noticed so I kept my guard up. I knew that we shouldn't have come here this place is filled with dangers and criminals but according to Ryuu it was a good place to start looking foe that man.

"R…Ryuu umm do you think we could stop and rest for a-," a sound of bushes moving on the back caught me off guard and I ran to cling to Ryuu's back.

Ryuu shook me off him with his shoulder "I didn't know this side of you Michiko. What happened to the girl who wasn't scared of anything?" I knew he was going to make fun of this for the rest of my life but I didn't care. I admit it I was scared out of my mind. The forest was dark and I hated the dark. It was the only thing I hated and nobody knew about my fears because fears were weaknesses.

"Can we please just stop for a while? Its kind of getting dark," My voice came out a little shakier than I expected.

"Ugh fine Michiko but hurry up and rest because we need to keep walking," he just sat there on the ground and looked around.

I sighed but decided to rest for a while. I kept my guard up because I kept feeling we were being watched. I knew Ryuu could feel it too know because he kept looking around trying to see something out of the ordinary.

Suddenly up from the trees a bunch of sound ninjas surrounded us. Ryuu and me got in a fighting stance which only cause the other ninjas to laugh.

"What are two little kids doing lost in a place like this?' the taller one with brown hair walked closer to us. He had no idea what us "little kids" were able to and if he got any closer he would find out.

"Get any closer to us and you will regret it," Ryuu tried warning them but this only seemed to amuse them more.

"Oh you mean like this," he advanced towards me and I couldn't take it anymore so I did the hand signs for a fire ball to try to scare him away.

The rest of the ninjas seemed a little surprised and they started getting closer and closer. I could see Ryuu was ready to activate his Sharingan and fight them but I was smarter than that instead I was trying to find of a way to escape.

Just as one of them was getting way to close to me I filled my small fist with as much chakra as I was capable of andd I punched the ground just like my mom was teaching me. It was not even close to how strong hers was but it was able to cause a big enough distraction for me to grab Ryuu and start running for our lives.

Just as we were starting to run away I could hear one of the ninjas say "Hey that kid has the Sharingan get him." Nice going Ryuu now look what you caused.

We ran as fast as we could until we reached a river, we were going to start running the other way but the Sound ninjas had caught up to us.

"Now you two why don't you come with us with out a fight to make this easier," was this guy crazy we weren't stupid.

"Where would you take us if we go with you?" Ryuu you really need to shut up. I wonder if he had hit his head or something.

"Well with our boss I'm sure he would be really interested in helping you with whatever you need," Ryuu please tell me you are not buying this. I turned to look at him but I knew he was planning on going with them already.

"Ok we will go with you without a fight for know," We? When did I agree? But I was going anyways I know I cant get separated from my brother. I just hope that this doesn't turn out badly.

"Ryuu what do you think you are doing? Are you planning on getting us killed or something?" I whispered to my brother as we followed the ninjas who were taking us to their boss.

"I'm trying to find our father and this looks like a good place to start getting information," Ok he lost it already. If I hadn't come with him he would probably be dead already.

We followed the ninjas for what seemed like hours until we reached a small old looking cabin that looked like it was going to collapse soon.

"This is where your great leader lives?" I raised an eyebrow at them.

"You'll see little one don't let the outside fool you," he continued walking inside.

When we walked inside they took us through some tunnels that lead to the bottom of the house and let me tell you this place was huge!

It had many hallways and I'm sure you could easily get lost in here if you weren't careful where you were going. I turned to look at Ryuu who looked as surprised as I was.

I began to wonder who their leader was and why he would want to help two kids wandering around on this place.

"We are here our boss will be with you soon so stay here," one of the ninja ordered us and I didn't feel like getting lost on this place so I didn't argue and neither did my brother.

We sat there in silence until this man walked up to us and I couldn't believe what I was seeing, this guy is supposed to be dead and we are not supposed to be anywhere near him.

"I have been informed you two were wandering through the forest and one of you has the Sharingan am I correct?" his face was pale and he was scary looking and he reminded me of a snake, now I know why people fear this guy.

"Michiko has it too," Ryuu I swear you are so stupid. I had read enough to know that this guy was obsessed with the Sharingan and I was sure we weren't gonna leave any time soon.

"So your name is Michiko… Uchiha?" he asked in a daring tone.

I nodded my head and kept an emotionless face on. This guy could not know that I was scared out of my mind.

"May I ask who is your father?" he turned to Ryuu knowing that he would be able to get more information out of him.

"Itachi Uchiha but we are currently looking for him sir. You see we have never seen him before," Ok I give out Ryuu was going to get us killed eventually so might as well let him continue giving information to the enemy while I planned a way to get out of here.

"Is that so?" he walked towards Ryuu and bend down to his level "What if I told you I know where he is at and I could tell you that is of coarse in exchange of something," he gave us a creepy laugh at his last words.

"Really? You know our father?" Ryuu's eyes lit with excitement.

"Of coarse I do. He is an old friend of mine. But how about you two rest for a while and get clean up before we discuss this subject? Come on follow me," he started walking farther down into the endless tunnels.

Ryuu immediately started following him but I was a little more reluctant. That is until Ryuu called me out.

"Come on Michiko lets go aren't you happy we will get to see our dad? I told you we would find him." I started following him but I couldn't help wonder if my mom and our friends were looking for us because we would need help getting out of here alive.
