Uchiha clan's attack

"Ottou-san said that this kind of eye is called Magekkyou Sharingan," I pointed at my drawing of it, "It's really scary when you see it," I sighed, "Sometimes, I can't understand why Onii-san is so unsociable." Yukino smiled, "Doesn't he remind us of the old you?" "I'm not that unsociable. He doesn't even have time with to spend with our parents. Moreover, he has little time to spend with us."

I headed home that night after my practice in throwing shuriken. From afar, I noticed someone watching me from the electric post. I stopped and looked above. All I can see is the full moon, but no one there looking at me. I looked back at the street and I saw that the lights are out, yet it isn't the time for us to sleep. I ran faster and turned to the next street. "This is-" was all I can manage to say after seeing the shurikens and kunais everywhere, the ruined houses and the dead bodies. I continued to run. Each of my step in time with my fast heartbeat, What happened? My feet stopped on its tracks. I recognized these two dead persons in front of me. It's Oba-san and Ojii-san! I started to worry about my parents.

I arrived home. I looked at my parents at the kitchen, where they would most likely stay at this time. No one. I heard a 'thud' on the other side of the house. I rushed to get there quickly. However, my feet froze when I was just about to open the door. Cowardness empowered me while at the back of my mind says that I need to get to the other side of the door. I moved my trembling body, telling it to move. I managed to get in and call, "Ottou-san! Oka-san!" I saw them, like the Uchihas, dead. I heard footsteps from the dark side of the room. By instinct, I took a step back. The moon lit the room. The person that is standing before my parents' bodies is… Onii-san! "Onii-san," I said, "Ottou-san and Oka-san… Why? What happened? Who-?" I felt a shuriken pass right beside my arm. Even though it didn't really hit me, my arm bled, "What are you doing, Onii-san?" He closed his eyes as if thinking for an answer, "My foolish little brother," he, once more, opened his eyes, "Magekkyou Sharingan!"

I'm on the street. I saw Onii-san being attacked by Uchihas. He killed each and everone of them. I screamed in horror, "Stop it, Onii-san! Don't let me see this!" I'm back inside the house and saw Ottou-san and Oka-san about to be killed, "Ottou-san! Oka-san! Don't do it, Onii-san!" I screamed once again… Everything turned back the way it was. I fell down the floor, no longer having the strength to even stand up, "Why, Onii-san?" "I want to become stronger," he replied. "To become stronger?" I repeated, "Just that to kill everyone?" "It's important," he calmly said, not even feeling guilty. "What's that?" I struggled to stand and rushed to attack him, "You're kidding!"

I hate myself! I can't even touch Onii-san before he punched me. I looked at my parents' bodies. I wished that they were still alive. Without noticing, tears fell down from my eyes. Onii-san took a step right in front of me. I'm afraid! I thought, I'm scared! I started to run away as fast as I can. I ran through the street, crying in grief and nervousness. "Don't kill me!" As soon as I shouted this, Onii-san appeared in front of me. I automatically stopped and said, "Don't kill me." "You are my opponent," Onii-san told me, "You have the capability to do everything… You're the same as me. But to have Magekkyou Shraingan, it needs a condition," he paused, "and that is to kill your best friend." I gasped, "It can't be. You killed Shisui-san?" "Because of that, I can already use it," he took a step back, "But, you are not worthy to kill. My foolish little brother, if you want to kill me then hate me, detest me and live on an ugly life. Otherwise, run and cling to your life. Wait 'till the day you already have these eyes then come and find me." My body feels heavy. I fell down, about to lose consciousness.

I quickly opened my eyes, breathing heavily. A dream? I asked myself. I tried to get up but my left arm hurts. I remembered the time when Onii-san threw a shuriken at me. I pulled up my sleeve. It's bandaged! It's true! It wasn't a dream!

"The whole Uchiha clan is dead," a nurse said, "Only one remaining." "But he still has a brother," another nurse spoke. "I heard that he disappeared." I gritted my teeth in anger, Onii-san left me!

I arrived in front of the Uchiha house. I heard Oba-san calling, "Sasuke-chan, do you want to buy?" I saw her with Ojii-san. I smiled at them, but suddenly they vanished into thin air. It's only my imagination, I thought. I slowly walked along the street. Suddenly, rain poured, cleaning the effects of sins that Onii-san caused. I looked back, hoping that I would see once again the clan alive. But then, nothing happened… I'm still alone.

I went to our house. "Welcome home, Sasuke," Oka-san would usually say. I would like to hear it once again, once again if possible. I went around the house, past the living room. I could clearly remember Oka-san giving me first aid after I practiced in using Goukkakyou no Jutsu. Time happened so fast, suddenly… they're dead right then and there. I went to where my parents' bodies were yesterday. They're gone. Someone took their bodies, I thought as I began to cry. There's nothing else that I can do. I can't even dig my parents' grave. I can't do anything. I can't… I can't…

"Yukino," Kakashi said, "I'm going out for and investigation." "Investigation?" Yukino repeated, "What investigation?" "Investigation of the Uchiha clan's death," he replied, "The kid is pretty lucky to be alive." "Uchiha Sasuke?" she asked. "Mm-hmm," Kakashi nodded, "You know him?" "He's my friend," Yukino replied. Kakashi opened the door, "I've better get going. Yukino, can you do me a favor?" She nodded, "What is it?" "Take care of that Uchiha kid," Kakashi said, "At this time, he really needs a friend. And another thing," he paused, "Take care of him. Most likely, he will seek revenge from the killer."

Yukino went to the Uchiha house to check on Sasuke. It was afternoon, the day after she learned about the Uchihas' death. She heard a splashing sound from the nearby lake. However, there's no one there. Sasuke-kun drowned himself! she hurriedly dived and tried to find me underwater. She saw a familiar figure, Sasuke-kun! she grabbed me by my arm and pulled me up. I opened my eyes and saw her, the person that I needed most.

We rested upon the grass beside the lake. "Why did you save me?" I asked. "You were drowning," Yukino replied. I looked away from her, "It doesn't matter if I die. I want to become stronger than Onii-san. I want to avenge the death of the Uchiha clan," a tear fell from my eye, "I will kill him whatever happens." Yukino reached for me to wipe the tears away.

Reiji: The whole Uchiha clan is dead and the killer is your own brother?

Neji: So are you still after him?

Sasuke: The answer is on the last chapter. You'll find it out soon.

Same boring day, I thought, If only Yukino were here. "Sasuke-kun!" a girl called, "Look this way." I turned around, "What do you want?" The girls screamed in delight. "Hn!" I turned away and closed my eyes, Stupid girls! "Sasuke-kun." I opened my eyes and saw Yukino, only inches away from me. I blushed, "Wha-What are you doing here?" I moved backwards and I suddenly fell off the bench. She walked around the bench and helped my up, "Are you alright?" "Y-Yeah, I'm fine," I replied, "What brings you here?" "I just wanted to check you out," Yukino replied, "Are you alright about… you know?" I smiled, "I'm alright." Besides, I thought, I won't let anyone kill Yukino. I won't let anyone take away my loved ones. I noticed the girls from before are glaring at Yukino. I shot them an angry look. However, they looked back at me with hearts in their eyes. I sighed. As I looked the other way, I saw boys glaring at me while hiding from Yukino. I growled, "Why doesn't everyone accept that we're best friends and nothing more than that?" Nothing more than best friends yet.

Reiji: What kind of follow up is that?

Sasuke: Because that's what's in my mind.

Reiji: That time, you're not yet sure that you will have Yukino and you're saying that! I'm gonna teach you a lesson for being ignorant! (poses a fighting stance and starts attacking Sasuke)

Sasuke: (evades Reiji's attacks) I have to finish this story or your scene with Yukino will not be narrated.

Reiji: (freezes like a statue)

"Just leave them alone, they'll get used to it," Yukino replied. "But it's getting on my nerves," I said through my clenched teeth. She sighed, "Sasuke-kun, your temper." I took a deep breath, "I'm okey."

Reiji turned the next corner and saw Yukino by the bridge alone, looking silently down the river. Is Sasuke around? he looked on all directions. He sighed, I'm safe. Sasuke isn't around. He walked casually towards Yukino, "Yo, Yukino." She turned around and smiled. "What're you doing here?" he asked. Yukino shrugged and replied, "I don't know. I just like to stay here." "Why?" Reiji asked again. "Water reminds me of something," Yukino frowned. Reiji started to walk away, "I think it's better for me to go. I must be disturbing you." "Wait," Yukino grabbed Reiji's arm. He turned around and looked at her questioningly. "Onii-san," she said as she looked down. "What?" Reiji asked. Yukino looked at Reiji and smiled, "N-Nothing." She let go of Reiji and stared at the river. "If you need anything just let me know, got it?" he winked at her.

Sasuke: What's the use of winking?

Reiji: I just want to let her know that I have a helping hand, not like someone here who is ignorant of his best friend.

Neji: It seems that you are hiding something.

Reiji: I-I'm not.

Sasuke: (tackles Reiji) Spit it out!

Itachi told Sasuke that a scroll in their clan shrine reveals the true original purpose of the clan doujutsu; however readers have yet to be told what this secret is. Itachi also told Sasuke that if he also gains the Mangekyou, then there will be three people who could handle it.
