Fate
Chapter 3
In an empty room, Sasuke Uchiha ate his onigiris silently next to the window, staring at the busy Konoha street.
Everyone look so happy...The Uchiha prodigy couldn't really understand the meaning of the words 'love' and 'happiness' after what happened five years ago.
And people call me an Uchiha prodigy……if I am strong, then I could have stopped that from happening to my clan...
Flashback"Nii-san, can you teach me how to throw shurikens today?" seven years old Sasuke asked.
"I'm sorry Sasuke, but I can't. I am busy today," his brother Itachi replied.
"You always say you are busy. You never have any free time!" The younger Uchiha frowned at his brother.
Itachi waved his hand at his younger brother, motioning him to come closer. As Sasuke walk toward him, Itachi poked his sibling's forehead with two fingers and said, "I'll teach you next time Sasuke."
"You say that every time too, but you will probably say it again next time I ask you."
Itachi stood up and left the Uchiha residence. Sasuke put his hand over where he had been poked, smiling.
"Sasuke, breakfast is ready. I'll teach you how to throw shurikens after you eat," his mother said. She had heard the conversation between the brothers.
"Yes mother."
At the dining table...
"Father, I was reading this scroll in the study room yesterday. It was a very old one and I don't get what it was talking about. Can you tell me?" Sasuke asked his father as he was finishing his breakfast.
"Was it a scroll about the Fumas?"
"Yeah, I think it was."
"Well, Sasuke, I can't tell you much about them because I have never met one in my life. Our ancestors feared them. I know this sounds like a legend, but I believe that they were real. The Fumas, they were more powerful than the Uchihas. But you don't have to worry about being defeated by them anymore. The clan had disappeared long ago after a natural disaster."
"They are stronger than we are?"
"Yes, certainly, it was written in the scroll. They had a unique bloodline limit. How should I describe it? It's like you put Sharingan and Byakugan together. It was very powerful. After our ancestor fought with the Fumas, they were severely injured. In order for the later generations to know of this strength, they had written down some of what a Fuma is capable of in that scroll. But I don't think that this scroll is any use now, since the Fumas are no longer alive."
"Wow, I would like to fight a Fuma when I grow up. I am done Mom, teach me how to throw shurikens!"

It's seven o'clock already. I'm probably late for dinner tonight. I lost track of time when I was practicing my throwing skills...
Sasuke thought as he ran toward the Uchiha residence as fast as he could. But, he stopped running and his face turned white when he saw corpses lying on the ground and blood was splattered everywhere.
What happened?He saw a dark figure on top of a light pole, looking at him with sharingans. But the figure disappeared in a split second and Sasuke regained his sense. He immediately ran toward his house.
"Mother! Father!" he shouted, standing in front of his parent's bedroom.
"Sasuke! Don't come in!" His mother said.
Come on Sasuke! Move! Move your body, don't be a coward! Sasuke told himself and his shaking hand slide open the paper door. The blood in his veins froze when he saw his parents lying on the floor, dead.
The next thing he saw was his brother, standing behind his parents' corpses with a sword.
"Nii-san, what happened?" Sasuke asked his brother. "Who did this?"
"My foolish little brother..." Itachi said, activating his sharingan.
Mange SharinganThe last moments of his parents flowed into Sasuke's mind. He didn't want to see this.
"STOP! I DON"T WANT TO SEE THESE THINGS! WHY? NII-SAN!"
The images stopped flowing into his mind, Sasuke panted and felled onto the cold wooden floor.
"Why? Nii-san...why..." the younger Uchiha asked weakly.
"They were just measuring sticks to test myself."
"Measuring stick?" Sasuke couldn't believe what he was hearing, "That's why...that's why you killed everyone?"
"It's very important to me. If you want to kill me, than hate me. Hate me with all your heart and with all your soul. Get stronger Sasuke with your hatred, I will be waiting for you..."
End flashbackWhy am I remembering these things? Sasuke asked himself as he finish his last rice ball.
It's about time to go back to the classroom…..
Sasuke headed back to the classroom, surprised to see Sakura Haruno still sitting in the same seat. It looked like she was lost in thoughts like he was a few minutes ago.
The pink hair girl heard someone entered the room. She got her mind out of her daydreaming and smiled at the Uchiha.
"Hi Sasuke-kun! You're early!" She greeted him happily.
"Hmph." That was his reply.
You ungrateful brat, I am gonna make you take that back someday! She thought.
"So Naruto is in our group. You know Sasuke-kun, he is just a brat who always make noise. Maybe that's because he doesn't have teach him how to behave himself. If I do that, my parents would kill me," Sakura said
That's probably what Sakura-san would say in a situation like this...
"Loneliness...a girl like you would never understand something like that..."
"What are you talking about?"
"You're annoying." Sasuke said as he sat down on the opposite side of the room.
What the hell! This Uchiha makes me mad. I am going to make him pay one day when nii-san is back...
Before Sakura could say anything else, an energetic blond burst into the room and shouted something that Sakura and Sasuke couldn't make out.
"Sakura-chan, I am glad that you are in my group!" Naruto exclained
"Naruto, I am going to be deaf if you don't keep your voice down. You don't have to shout when I am two feet away from you."
"Sorry Sakura-chan. So what did you have for lunch?"
"Nothing." Sakura answer. Not eating lunch could make people piss off very easily.
"What? That's not good for you. I would treat you to ramen after this."
"Whatever."
"Yay! Me and Sakura-chan on a date!"
Sakura couldn't hold down her temper anymore.
"Would you shut up Naruto! If you don't, I will beat the crap outta you!"
Naruto's face went white all of a sudden and sat next to Sakura, waiting for their sensei to come.
Boys...geez...
