Uchiha Kenta POV
Uchiha Kenta was Old, so very old. He remembers the time when he drew blades along with the likes Uchiha Madara and Izuna to annihilate obnoxious clans that dared to impinge on the Uchiha honour and land and the feel of adrenaline that pumped through him as cut through the senju and their allies, making them water the land of fire with their blood.
It was while Reminiscing under his favorite sakura blossom tree about the bygone era with a slight smile on his face that he came across the young boy.
At first he never asked for his name or identity, but it was obvious the boy was an orphan despite the fact he dressed well, the Uchiha took care of their own after all.
What clued him in was the fact that the adults that always came to pick him from the park was always a different one.
It was while observing the boy that they came in contact. The other youngsters were playing with each other and even at that age, when they stretched forth their hands to grab him to join them, he was always a step ahead. Moving with such grace and speed that were they were still in the warring era, he would have been picked up and given a tutor to ready him for war, even at such a young age.
He wondered how none of the Uchiha Matrons and caretakers noticed it, but reasoned they might just see it as luck instead of the inborn skill it was.
It was just after he escaped a new group of children that wanted the boy to join in that they made their first contact, locking his dark eyes with the boy's steel grey he motioned and patted the ground to his side.
The boy was reluctant at first but the sight of the children calling after him made his decision for him. He moved, with such grace that Kenta found it hard to believe that the boy had not started shinobi training yet, after the boy sat down beside him he placed his palms back on his knees and continued resting under the shade of the tree, it took the boy a few minutes before he relaxed, even with his eyes closed he noticed the tension that slipped off the boy as he started meditating and slipped off into sleep a few minutes later.
Satoshi POV
Reincarnation, a concept he had never cared or given much thought about. But looking at himself in the mirror it was the only manageable and reasonable explanation he could come to.
'This world was a strange one' he thought to himself as he went to dress, grey shorts with a high necked black top with the Uchiha fan at the back.
He was intimately familiar with war, afterall he had been fighting on the losing side of one almost all of his past life.
The day news came, that the war was over, and despite how much the news of his new mothers demise hurt him, he was not surprised by it, war was not kind to anyone, he once read that only the dead had seen the end of war, considering for some reason he was breathing once more, he planned on being prepared for the next.
Closing the clasp on his sandals he stood up and left his recent caretakers house ever since his mother's death, he had been passed on from one family to another the Uchiha preferred a communal way of raising orphaned children a tradition he heard was as old as the warring era, not that he knew much about that time.
Leaving the house he headed straight for the Uchiha park, it was strange to find out the Uchiha district had one but, he noticed the Clan was isolated and closed off to the village compared to other clans. With his intellect and experience it was obvious that this would bring issues down the line, but he decided he was too young to trouble himself with Clan and Village politics, that was the job of the Elders.
Reaching the park he came across his favorite elder, the white haired elderly man was where he always seemed to be, below the sakura tree, most of the time meditating as usual.
Quickly power walking towards the man before he caught the attention of the other children he sat beside him and quickly went into the meditation pose he had learnt and copied from the man.
"Today is your birthday, yes?", the man asked without opening his eyes, Satoshi raised a delicate eyebrow and observed the man for a few seconds before replying " yes", with a nod the old man stands before suddenly opening his eyes and observing Satoshi with crimson eyes ringed with three black tomoes.
Satoshi leaps back to his feet in shock his serene facade broken, far faster than any child of five should, but he's still too slow. Old man Kenta moves with more grace than people three times his age before slamming an open palm just below his abdomen.
He had heard about chakra, how it was what helped the Shinobi's to punch so far above their weight level, a lesser man would have fantasized about how he would have used those powers against the titans, but Satoshi was different instead he thought about how to obtain and use it now. When he was told that he would have to wait till he was in the academy to learn anything of note he was annoyed but decided to unlock it by himself. He failed.
So the flow of power that rushed through him was shocking to the extreme his gray eyes widened in shock as he suddenly felt strong enough to lift mountains and shatter the moon, at least that was before he was slapped upside the head "meditate boy, this is what I have always been leading up too, it's quite dangerous to unlock your chakra this young but I believe you can rein it in, if not" the old man shrugged before taking his seat back and closing his eyes, his kimono still as smooth like he never even moved.
Forcing his ass back to the ground he started meditating closing off wayward thoughts and strangling the thought that he was actually strong enough to do anything with this new born power.
Twenty minutes later and the flood that was moving through his pathways had calmed down. He opens his eyes to look at the old man now staring at him still with those unnerving crimson eyes. "A bit above the average amount of chakra for an Uchiha, but that should be far more than those of the lesser clans." "You apparently share the same birthday with that brat Fugaku's progeny " he continues after a while "see if you can join in on the celebration, I've asked to adopt you and the clan head has agreed, I will be coming to pick you this evening from wherever you finally end up" he finishes before getting back to his feet and moving away.
Satoshi is still shocked, but he forces his expression back into a calm visage as he thinks about all that has happened and what this spells for his future.
