Chapter 2

An Uchiha

It's been two years since I was born in this world as Uchiha Seiichi, the younger twin of Uchiha Sasuke. I am not sure if I should feel happy or not due to the tension in the air between Uchiha clan and the Villagers. I can see that my older brother, Uchiha Itachi in a lot of stress even though he tried to hide it from Sasuke and I. From what I knew, Itachi will slaughter the clan when Sasuke became 7 years old. How to stop it? I felt stress thinking about it. But, it is wise to stop the coup? Most of the clan members already put their heart to plan the coup. I sighed inwardly.

"Care to explain why you seems sad and anxious?" I startled hearing Itachi's voice. I looked up and saw him walking towards me. At this times, Itachi only 8 years old and already a genin.

"Hey, niisan!" I said as soon as he sat beside me. He ruffles my hair and asked the same question again. I wonder where is Sasuke. Usually, he will cling to Itachi. It's kind funny seeing Sasuke acting like that.

"It..it just seems.." I struggle to find the right thing to say.

"Hey, calm down and take a deep breath." Itachi put his arm on my shoulder and hugged me.

"You know..the villagers seems mistrust us and the clan become more agitated." I finally said what in my mind. Itachi stay quiet for a while. I looked at him. His face remain emotionless. He looked at me and sighed.

"Stop worrying, little brother. I will not let anything happen to you and Sasuke." Itachi said.

"Besides, you should not thinking about it. What you need to do is just become a child." I nodded, knowing that he did not want to discuss it anymore.

"By the way, where is Sasuke?" Itachi asked me.

"I don't know." I shook my head. He ruffles my hair and help me get up to find Sasuke.

"Itachi." We both turned and saw our father, Uchiha Fugaku standing with stoic face.

"Otousan!" I said with happiness. I let go Itachi's hand and run towards Fugaku. He patted my head.

"Itachi, come to my office room after dinner. There's something I need to discuss with you."

Fugaku said without emotion.

"Yes, Otousan." Itachi said and bow a little bit to him. I hated when they are talking like this. Like a stranger.

"Seiichi, follow me." Fugaku walked without giving me a chance to talk.

"Yes, Otousan." I said and looked towards Itachi who still remains impassive before following Fugaku.

We arrived at Fugaku's office room. I sat on the chair waiting for him to search something at the shelves. He put the scroll and told me to read it.

"Hai, Otousan." My face became blank. I opened it and read it without complain. I regret start speaking earlier and showing that I am prodigy.

flashback

At 3 months old, I start speaking even though not in complete sentences such as Okaasan, Otousan, niisan, hungry and read. My parents and Itachi seems startled but happy seeing that I can talk unlike Sasuke who can talk with a little bit difficulty when he was 5 and half months old. I laughed inwardly seeing their face.

"Tou..san?" I tried to pronounce the word. Their jaws dropped hearing me talked. But quickly composed theirself.

I learnt to crawl when I was 5 months old while Sasuke managed to do it when he was 7 months old. Fugaku seems ecstatic learning that he got another prodigy son after Itachi. Since that day, he encourages me to read and learn. He taught me how to feel chakra and happy to know that I can find my chakra quickly.

"It seems that your chakra level are on the same as 7 years old. As expected from my son." He said while analyse my chakra level.

I am kind of sad but happy that he did not pressure Sasuke like what he did to Itachi and me. I knew that Itachi hated seeing our father, Fugaku pressure me. He might think that no one saw it but his eyes will flash before it remain emotionless.

End flashback

Fugaku kept me for 2 hours in his office before he dismissed me. I saw Itachi at the hallway as soon as I walked out from Fugaku's office room.

"Hi, niisan." I said softly. Itachi hugged me and picked me up.

"You know that I am not a baby anymore." I teased him to ease the tension in the air.

"You will always be my baby brother." That's all he said.

"So, do you find Sasuke?" I asked, breaking the silence.

"Hn. He fall asleep under the tree nearing the fish pond." I laughed. We arrived at Sasuke and my room.

"Why are we here?" I said as soon as he put me on my bed. I saw that Sasuke still asleep. Itachi must put him on the bed. I giggled and saw that Itachi lips twitched.

"You must be tired from studying. Why don't you sleep. I will wake you up before dinner." Itachi said while tucking me.

"Ok, niisan." I said and yawned. He ruffles my hair and wait for me to fall asleep before leaving the room.

Dinner time.

My father, Fugaku sat on the head seats while my mother, Uchiha Mikoto on the right seat and Itachi on the left seat. Sasuke sat besides Itachi while I sat the opposite of him. Sasuke was the one who do the talking while all of us just listen or sometimes answered his question. It kind of nice eating like a family even though I feel that father and Itachi posture were stiff. After dinner, I saw that Itachi went with father to the office room. Sasuke tried to follow them but my mother distract him. I offered to bring the bowls and plates to the sink. She smile and ruffles my hair.
