A/N: Hey guys how's it going? Anyways sorry for utter late ness once again but I'm trying to get on a roll here hopefully. We have just about 15 chapters left I believe since I'm shooting for 40 chapters. Thank you for sticking with me!

Review feedback:

Dragon77- Oh I know! Don't worry hopefully this will suffice for the cliffhanger.

Raina- Ha no worries its Full metal Alchemist. An anime show about two brothers & their hardships along the way. Look it up on Google! For more information if you need too. It's one of my little ideas.

Warning: Contains spanking minor/child. If you do not like then I suggest you do not read. It's simple as that. *shrugs*

Also be warned Sasuke gets a little beat up by Kisame and Itachi: (Sorry but I try to incorporate as much as I could in here for fluff and angst among other things.

Enjoy!

Chapter 26

Heroes

Sasuke started running as fast as he could back to school but he didn't make it before Itachi pounced on him. Both tumbling to the ground as Kisame was trying to catch up in the background. Sasuke inwardly winced for he scraped his elbow while he got tackled.

"Just where do you think you're going?"

"I'm going to the dorms!"

"Nope today you're not," Itachi sneered while madly grinning. Kisame finally catches up and kicked Sasuke right in the chin while he was being pinned by Itachi. Sasuke struggled here and there but no matter how hard he tried to get away Itachi was a bit stronger than him. He kicked Itachi by the arm which made the older Uchiha wince with a scowl on his face. He gripped Sasuke hair and punched his face while Kisame was laughing in the background.

"Do you really think you could ever possibly get away?"

"Yeah you got me into trouble today little brat," Kisame added.

"How am I a brat when you two are only a few years older?" Sasuke got hit once more for that sarcastic comment, and tried his best not to cry.

"Awe not trying to cry eh?"

"What's wrong are you angry little boy?"

"Don't call me that," Sasuke had enough and punched Itachi square in the nose. Both Kisame and Itachi we're shocked for a split second. Even Sasuke himself was shocked surprised even that he muster enough energy to punch his brother in the face. He felt not only good for punching him back but relived to be quite honest he thought. In that split second he was back on the ground while Itachi started wailing on him. Though the three boys never knew that two little kindergarten girls we're seeing such an event, the blonde haired one immediately dragged the other with her running back to get to their school. Running hurriedly to get their teacher hoping he was still around.

Sakura and Ino we're both exhausted from today. Both we're chatting away like gossiping adults instead of two little kindergarten girls. When Sakura looked up from the top of the field she froze.

"Sakura what's wrong?" She pointed towards the far side of the field and Ino followed it. Gasping as to what she was seeing.

"Is that Sasuke and his older brother?"

"It is KISAME TOO!"

"Oh my god," both girls screamed together and looked at each other with wide eyed faces. Until the little blonde narrowed her eyes and nodded.

"Right come on us got to hurry back and see if Mr. Hatake is still there."

"What about..," Sakura questioned turning back slightly before Ino interrupted her.

"He'll have to hold on and survive we got to hurry!" Both girls rushed away running as fast as their little legs could back to the west entrance. As they finally got their within a few minutes they noticed their teacher talking with Naruto and his parents. Easily chatting away till Naruto noticed the two girls running towards them.

"Why are they running so fast?"

"What's that Naruto?"

"Look," Naruto pointed to the two girls as his teacher and parents turned to see. All adults widening their eyes as the two girls finally caught up to them. Both out of breathe and hands on their little knees.

"Trouble….fight," said Ino.

"Sasuke…brother and Kisame," Sakura finished once more. Kakashi narrowed his eyes and calmly asked the two girls to repeat themselves.

"SASUKE IS GETTING BEAT UP BY HIS BROTHER AND KISAME!" Both girls shouted in anger at their teacher for making them repeat themselves. Both out of breathe and tired from running. Once Kakashi heard he widened his eyes as him and Minato started running towards the field where the girls came from.

"Come on we got to go to?!"

"You stay and you girls as well. Your father and Mr. Hatake will handle it, just hope all is alright," Kushina whispered sternly in a motherly type of way. While her son rolled his eyes and the collapsed on the ground tears coming down. Kushina immediately sat on the ground as well comforting the two little girls. Naruto frowned and snuggled close to as well.

"It'll be alright sweet-," she was interrupted by Ino.

"We couldn't have jumped in, we are girls!?"

"We didn't know what to do and ran back to find Mr. Hatake!"

"Oh sweethearts you are alright you did exactly what you are supposed to do in such a situation. You came to find an adult and you found three. You two are quite brave."

"Really," both girls questioned.

"Really you truly are most people would of shrugged and walked away."

"Sasuke is friend we wouldn't of honest," Sakura sternly said while Kushina chuckled lightly.

"I know loves. I know," she comforted all three children and hoped that her husband and Kakashi will find Sasuke in time. Oh she hoped everything was alright as she frowned slightly.

Meanwhile Sasuke couldn't help but cry now that Kisame joined in on the beating. It didn't stop Sasuke at all in trying to fight back. Fight all his frustrations out from today and in general. Hoping he hurts his older brother as he is hurting him. He can't stand it that his mother and father don't love him. He can't stand how people act around him always comparing him to Itachi. Itachi this and Itachi that. He cannot STAND IT! A fierce growl erupted from his lips as he lunged at both boys trying to kick, scratch, bite, hit as much as his little body possibly could. Though suddenly he feels two big strong arms wrap around his little body trying to cage him in.

"Let go of me! Let go," the little raven screamed and tried wiggling his way out of the two strong arms. The arms had a gentle touch and didn't squeeze him to hard but enough to make him feel trapped.

"Sasuke calm down it's me."

"No let go," the little raven tried to break free but the strong arms lifting him up as he was being held close to a firm chest. While one hand on the back of his head pushed his head down lightly on the shoulder of who was carrying him. He just didn't care anymore and grasped the neck of who was carrying him crying his little eyes out.

"It's okay Sasuke," Kakashi calmly said while rubbing circles in the little boys back.

"It hurts…," the raven boy muttered and choked out another usher of tears.

"I know. I am so sorry Sasuke. I know," Kakashi reassured his favorite student with a worried expression etched on his face. Kakashi turned slightly too glared at the other kids on the ground while Minato was reeling into them on a lecture of hurting others. He spoke loudly so the children on the ground both could hear him.

"Mark my words boys; I'll have you expelled before you can even say I'm sorry," Kakashi threatened with a stern voice that had both boys gulp with fear.

"I think we all shall find the headmaster right?"

"Exactly come along brats," Kakashi said once more as the boys on the ground widened their eyes, "I don't have all day as you can see." Both Itachi and Kisame scrambled to get up and followed Kakashi.

"We're screwed," whispered Kisame.

"I know," Itachi harshly whispered back, "I know."
