Chapter 6 Madara

(I'm not gonna bother even putting names in this, cause it's just To- uh Madara talking the whole time.)

"Itachi became a sacrifice. A sacrifice... that had its origins in the past. There was a big problem ever since Konoha was formed. that is what influenced how Itachi lived. This is a long story... but it's all true..."

"I have no proof. It's up to you whether or not to believe my story. But just hear me out. It started more than 80 years ago. The world was engulfed in a constant state of war. Countries fought to gain power and expand their territory. In those times, ninja's were nothing but individual clans, acting as armed milita. Each clan was hired to fight for a country. And among the numerous ninja clans, were two feared as the strongest."

"They were our own "Uchiha Clan" and a clan called the "Senju Clan of the Forest."

"The Uchiha clan had exceptional chakras and the sharingan. We were known as a warrior clan, well-versed in battle. And even among the Uchiha my chakras were especially strong."

"The fact that I've managed to survive this long can be taken as proof of that. Back then my life was nothing but one long battle. It was a time when strength was everything. I killed my friend and my own brother in my quest to become stronger."

"Bastard..." Sakura mumbled disgusted

"But thanks to that, I gained a perfect mangekyou and became the leader of the Uchiha clan. And I used my powers to fight the Senju clan time and again. It was inevitable that i would fight Hashirama the leader of the Senju clan. Senju Hashirama who would later become first hokage, he stood at the top of the ninja world, and was the man I admired most."

"The first man to call himself hokage was Hashirama, leader of the Senju clan... All the clans acknowledged his superiority. And everyone feared him."

"If Senju made a move, Uchiha made a move. We were the only clan who was a match for them. if one country hired Senju their enemies would hire Uchiha... We were rivals."

"As I fought Hashirama my name became more and more well-known. For fame... that's why... I did... but it was because I wanted the strength to protect the Uchiha Clan."

"The more famous we grew, the more enemies we made. As the battles raged sacrifices had to be made to protect Uchiha from Senju and the other clans that opposed us. It wasn't for fame."

"My brother agreed to everything. And offered up his own eyes. But then the Senju clan asked for a truce with Uchiha. Both clans were exhausted from the endless fighting. They'd reached their limits. I was the only one to oppose the truce."

"Where was the hatred we'd held for each other. What had my brother sacrificed himself for?! After all Uchiha and Senju were like oil and water."

"Eventually the Senju clan would exterminate the Uchiha clan. I couldn't help but think that... But the rest of the Uchiha Clan wanted the truce. As their leader, I had no choice but to go with their decision."

"Soon after our ninja alliance made a pact with the land of fire, who wanted help controlling their territory. There began a system of one village per country. With Konohagakure and the land of fire. other countries began mimicking the one village per country system and with that, little by little the fighting began to lessen. For once there was peace."

"But soon something happened that threw Konoha into chaos. There was a dispute over the position of leader... of hokage."

"As you know, Hashirama was the one who gained the position. Everyone in the village and in the land of fire chose him. It was clear that Uchiha was quickly losing its supremacy. In order to protect Uchiha, I chose the path of leadership... I chose to oppose Hashirama..."

"But there was no one among the Uchiha who would follow me. My followers opposed me, thinking I would stir up the embers of war. They betrayed me. They said I was moved by my own desire for power. They despised me, saying I was greedy and stole my brother's eyes to save my own life. What man would willingly harm his own little brother? I just... wanted to protect Uchiha, that's all!!! I left the village. Betrayed by everyone."

"Bent on revenge I challenged Konohagakure. And i was defeated. In the place now called "The Valley of the End". I died there, or so they assumed. Even Hashirama thought so. I was forgotten by everyone, even history. Wanting to make sure another traitor like myself never arose, Hashirama's younger brother, the Second Hokage gave Uchiha a special position as a sign of trust."

"The Konoha military police were formed. But its true purpose was to distance Uchiha from the governing of the village and to keep the entire clan under surveillance. Some of the Uchiha realized what was going on. Some rebels began to follow in my footsteps. But it was already too late. Time passed and Senju retained supremacy. The proud Uchiha clan was nothing more than Senju's dogs."

"And it was just as I feared. Something happened to completely destroy Uchiha. The Nine-tailed Fox spirits attack 16 years ago. Uchiha's powers are the only thing that can control the Kyuubi. It was a natural disaster, not the Uchiha. But they were suspicious. They thought Uchiha might be plotting a rebellion..."

"After that, Uchiha were closely guarded by black ops. They were forced to live in a corner of the village. And were basically segregated from the rest of the population. The third hokage was the only one who voiced any dissent. But his advisers and Danzo of the Black Ops refused to listen to him. After all, the Uchiha Clan had never been trusted."

"The discrimination began. Their mistrust birthed Ill-will. And eventually the suspicions became reality... The Uchiha Clan plotted a coup d'etat... to take over the village. So the Konoha higher-ups planted a spy in the Uchiha Clan. That spy was your brother... Uchiha Itachi. And that's where Itachi's hell began."
