If Sasuke Had Another Relative...
Birthday Memories
Here is the special! It took me ages to decide what I was doing for this special. I was like 'Hmm… What the hell should I dooo?' while my inner was planning the future series'… (God, she is so helpful.)
Hidden far deep within this special chapter is a clue. It is for the THIRD series. *gasp*
But you have one hell of a long time to wait for that.
This chapter will include child abuse. (Only violence.)
If any of this shit has happened to you, or is, it is coincidence. If this is your life story, then that is TOTAL coincidence.
And, Sasuke was this hyperactive before the clan was wiped out. .
Anyway…
Oh, and if Kaida seems more mature than what is normal, it is on purpose. And yes, she is reading before she is one.
Italic = Kaida's Inner, and emphasis! Bold Italic = Author notes.
[Let's Go!]
First Birthday
"Kaida. So you know what day it is?"
"Is it the sixth of June, mum?" Blue-blackish eyes looked up at her mum, Kazu Uchiha.
"Yes, do you know what happens on that day?"
"No. Does something important happen?"
Kaida was sitting in the corner of her room, trying to read a book. The writing was large, but there were no pictures. It was hard for her, but she was forced to be clever. Not being clever meant she was… punished. Kaida loved to learn anyway, which made it easier. Nevertheless, she had to constantly ask her parents things that she didn't understand.
"It's your birthday."
"So… It has been a year since I was born?" Kaida asked, placing a piece of paper in the book and putting it down. "Don't others have big parties and get presents on that day?"
"Yes, but your father and I decided to just give you a single present. You don't know anyone to have a party with."
Her mother passed the small purple box, tied with a dark blue ribbon. Kaida was careful not to tear the ribbon. It was cloth, and it was about three inches wide.
Kaida opened the box. Inside was a small doll, just the same size as her palm.
It had blue hair down to the waist, and dark grey button eyes. It was wearing a purple top with a thick red belt partway down it. It was held onto the neck by black straps and mesh. Also, it had small mesh gloves that started at the wrist and ended at the base of the fingers. It wore a red belt, with a part of the belt hanging off the left side. That was holding up a skirt that was the same colour as the top, and underneath that was mesh that went down to the knee. It was wearing black ninja sandals as well.
Kaida stood up and bowed politely. "Thank you for the doll, mum. It is very pretty."
"Good. You like it. Now, Kaida, I expect you to keep it in perfect condition or you know what will happen." Soft charcoal eyes went from friendly to cold in a split second.
Kaida flinched, her hand instinctively moving towards her opposite arm. "I will be very careful with it."
Kazu's expression changed back to normal, and smiled, before leaving the room, shutting the door behind her, and locking it with a click. Kaida breathed a small sigh of relief.
Kaida smiled. "Least I got something." she said, picking up the doll. "It looks a little like me. I wonder if one day I can buy that outfit in real life, it's cute."
Second Birthday
"Mother. It's the sixth of June."
"And?" Her mum snapped, tucking her black hair behind her ear.
"Isn't it my second birthday today?"
"Yes, but who cares?" She yelled back, slapping Kaida across the face, leaving a red mark.
"I'm sorry. I just thou-"
"Thought what? You'd get a present? Tough!" Another slap. Tears were welling up, but Kaida was not willing to give her mother the pleasure of watching her cry. She was on the tiled floor. Her cut-covered arms were shaking as she tried stood up. As she was about to stand up, a hand went around her neck, picking her up, high off the floor. She nearly squealed, but it caught in her throat. "You will not talk about foolishness as birthdays again, understand?"
Kaida nodded, her arms hanging limply at her sides as she waited to be released.
She was thrown across the room to land half way up the opposite wall, letting out a choked gasp as the impact knocked the air out of her. She landed badly on her leg, as it cracked, though it wasn't broken, another gasp was released. About a minute later, she had managed to drag herself up the stairs, into her room, where she went over to the wardrobe, bringing out a purple box sealed with a black ribbon. Opening it carefully, she brought out a little doll. "You'll be my friend won't you?" She made it nod slightly. "Thank you doll-chan!"
Fourth Birthday
"Kaida! Kaida-chan! Where are you!"
"I'm in the living room, baka!"
Sasuke ran into the room. "It's your birthday today, isn't it?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Aren't you excited?"
"Why, should I be?" Kaida said, a curious look in her eyes.
"Yes! We brought you presents, come on!" Sasuke grabbed her hand, and they ran into the kitchen, where Mikoto, Fugaku and Itachi were standing. Kaida was surprised that Fugaku was there.
"Fugaku-san? Aren't you at work?" she asked, earning a miniscule smile from the chief of the village's police system.
"He took a day off for you, Kaida-chan!" Sasuke said, getting a present of the table. "Open my present first please, open it, open it!"
Kaida smiled. "Okay okay!" The present was really badly wrapped in blue wrapping paper. (Obviously, the insane Uchiha boy coughSasukecough had attempted at wrapping it.) She ripped the paper open, revealing a fair sized black teddy bear with large blue eyes.
"Wow! It's so cute!" Kaida pulled Sasuke into a playful hug. "Thank you, nii!"
Sasuke smiled. "I brought that myself!" He said proudly.
"I bet it was really expensive! You don't need to spend that much on me!"
"You're my friend! I can buy what I want for you." He replied, as Kaida laughed. Mikoto walked up to Kaida.
"Here you go, Kaida-chan, happy birthday." she said, passing a red box.
Kaida untied the ribbon and opened the box, revealing it to be a small black cloth wallet with the Uchiha symbol as a clip, so when it was closed, you could see the full symbol, but when it was opened it was just the two separate parts.
"Thank you Mikoto-san!" Kaida smiled, putting both the teddy bear and the wallet on the table.
Next, again to surprise Kaida, was Fugaku. The box was a plain black one. Kaida opened it, and inside was a kunai with the Uchiha symbol engraved into the handle. It was possibly the greatest craftsmanship she had seen for a long time. "Wow… Umm… Thank you, Fugaku-san." she bowed politely.
Itachi was last, and he led her outside. "Do you think you could master a fire jutsu if I tried to teach you?" He asked as they reached a large lake.
That was more of a surprise than Kaida had ever imagined. Itachi had offered to train her? The super powerful ANBU weasel, Itachi? And he thought a four year old could master a fire jutsu? Had he been abducted by aliens? "I- I can try…"
It took a few hours, but after that, Kaida could blow out a reasonable amount of fire. Of course, after that, she had exhausted the small amount of chakra she as a four year old had. She had to be carried by Itachi.
"Thank you, Itachi-nii." Kaida smiled as he carried her to her room, where all the presents she had received were on her desk in a line. The sky was darkening. "I think, no… I know that was the best birthday ever. I owe you and your family now." Itachi put Kaida down on her bed.
"No, you're meant to get presents on your birthday."
"Your birthday's in three days. I'll make sure you have a good birthday too!"
"Thank you, Kaida, but you should get some sleep now." Itachi smiled softly, as he clicked out the light and walked out the room, leaving the door ajar.
"Thank you, everyone."
Ninth Birthday
"Yoko-neechan!" Kaida walked into the room. "Guess what day it is?"
"The sixth of June?"
"Annndddd?"
"D-Day?"
"Aaaaaannnnnndddddd?"
"Your birthday!"
"Ting ting ting, you are a winner!" Kaida smiled, as Yoko passed her the present. It was in a bag. She opened it, and it was a load of manga. Battle Angel Alita, Tokyo Mew Mew, Rosario + Vampire, Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni and Vampire Knight.
"Thank you!"
"Now, follow me!" Yoko said, throwing herself from the floor into the kitchen. On the table was a chocolate cake. They both cut a quarter for the each of them, putting the left over half back in the fridge.
"That is goooood cake."
"Too right. Now, bed!"
"Awww, but it's-!"
"No, go on Kaida."
Kaida trawled upstairs with her manga, pretending to be babyishly upset, but as soon as she made the lock 'click', a scowl was on her face. "Damn Yoko, treating me like a freaking baby." Then, she remembered something, and the smile was back. She dug into her wardrobe, finding a few of her past presents. A blue haired doll, still in mint condition, a black teddy bear with blue eyes, a cloth wallet with the Uchiha symbol on, and an unused kunai with the Uchiha symbol engraved onto the handle.
"I hope all you guys are okay."
Twelfth Birthday (Set before the latest chapter.)
"Oh, wow. I just remembered." Kaida sighed, sitting at the bottom of her lookout, a tall tree with thick branches. "I just abandoned my village, and it's my birthday today. 'Oh, what did you do on your twelfth birthday?' 'Hmm? I just abandoned my village.' 'Nice.'" Kaida laughed, searching through her bag for the 'sacred' objects. She smiled as she picked up the doll and patted its head. "I never did buy that outfit. Maybe I should one day."
She tugged the zip of her bag closed again, with the objects inside again, as she started to walk up the tree to watch the sun set. "Happy mother-fucking birthday, me."She smiled, standing on the highest branch that could hold a human being.
And that concludes the special. Now, I will not update this story again until I get at least two reviews! (Or I get really super bored.)
Yeesh, how come the specials are always longer than the normal chapters? I am sure it's meant to be the other way round. (Including author notes, this chapter is 2456? words long, geez! That's like six hundred or so words more than normal!)
Anyway, if you can guess the clue right, I will give you a virtual cookie, and I mean, come on, who doesn't want a virtual cookie?
Tee hee. I am high on pocky. Though, writing about her second birthday kind of saddened me. Poor Kaida!
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN NARUTO OR ANY CHARACTERS WITHIN IT, BATTLE ANGEL ALITA, TOKYO MEW MEW, ROSARIO + VAMPIRE, HIGURASHI NO NAKU KORO NI OR VAMPIRE KNIGHT. HOWEVER, I DO OWN KAIDA, HER PERSONALITY (Though, I am going to start toning down the swearing soon.), AND HER FUTURE OUTFIT. (You know, the one the dolls wearing? It's not important, so I can tell you that XD)
Review and Favourite and shit.
Alita x
Plus, if anyone liked the conversations/arguments Charlie and me had in the earlier chapters, message me a message to pass onto her, if you want her back.
Anyway, the next chapter is where it all begins! LET THE CHAOS AND FATE TWISTING COMMENCE! (Hehe, review or no chapter for you! Oh, that rhymes… lol)
