Here is chapter 4! Last chapter was posted during that glitch week, so if you didn't read it before, now is the time.

Chapter 4: Ino-shika-cho

"Kaa-chan, can I go now?"

She was been brushing my hair for the last hour. Trying to straighten my hair was looking to be a pointless effort. At least when flat irons aren't a thing.

"Don't you want to look pretty for your little play date?"

"I'm not going to have a play date if you take much longer!"

"Oh shush you. Shisui-Kun hasn't even arrived yet." Ka-chan reminded me as she pulled on my hair again.

Why does it hurt so much!

"There. You're so cute I could just gobble you up!" Ka-chan said as she proceeded to start a tickle fight with me.

Well, I say fight but it was really one sided.

"Ni-chan! Help! Ka-chan turned into a zombie! She said she is going to eat me!" I screamed when I saw Itachi walk through the living room.

Like the good brother he is, Itachi immediately stopped what he was doing at my cry of help. However then he saw Ka-chan, and relaxed.

"She is not going to eat you. I will see you late. Have fun Imouto." Itachi said as he posted my forehead before leaving.

Then to making it even better (note sarcasm) Ka-chan laughed as I rubbed the spot. However before I could come up with an awesome comeback, there was a knock at the door.

"Looks like Shisui-kun is here. Why don't you grab the lunches I made and We'll go?"

"Finally!"

I rolled off the couch and ran into the kitchen. With the help of a chair, I grabbed the four boxes Ka-Chan made for my friends, Shisui, and I. Though I didn't think it was enough for Chōji.

"Let's go!"

Shisui looked like he was getting ready to knock again when Ka-chan opened the door, but quickly put his hand down with a smile.

"Good morning Oba-san."

"Good morning Shisui-kun. Thank you for taking Chiyome-chan to her friends today."

"It's no problem. I love spending time with Chi-chan." Shisui said with a grin while I rolled my eyes at him.

We just meet yesterday. Why would a 11-year-old want to hang out with someone who is for all intent and purposes is three?

"Be good you two. I do not want to hear about any shenanigans." Kaa-chan said with a serious look.

"Don't worry Ka-chan."

Ka-chan didn't seem any less worried, but left regardless.

"Hey Chi-chan, do you want to get there fast?" Shisui said as he looked down at me.

"What, are you going to carry me or something?" I asked with a rise of my brow, only for Shisui to flip me over his shoulder and onto his back.

"I've been practicing this new jutsu that will get us there in a sec."

Before I had time to ask what he was talking about, we moved. It was like falling, but without any sense of direction. Then when I looked up I saw we were no longer at the gates to the Uchiha compound.

"What was that!"

"That was a body flicker!"

"Oh." I said a little disappointed.

It was still cool, but I was hoping it wasn't just a common technique.

"Just an 'oh'. Not a 'that was the best thing ever, I want you to be my nii-chan now'."

"Why are you insistent on that?"

"Who wouldn't want a cute little sister?" Shisui simply said and I gave him a blank look.

"I'm sure that's the reason. Anyways, let's go!" I said as I grasped his hand and pulled without much interference.

Shisui is quickly becoming one of my favorite family members with how he doesn't have a stick up his ass at all times.

"Do you even know where you are going?"

"Ya, to Yoshino-san's house." I said, figuring that would be the biggest house in the Nara compound.

"Which we already passed, but i'm sure you knew that." Shisui said with a cheeky grin.

"How do you know that?"

"Your mom told me before leaving." He told me even though I knew she said no such thing before we left.

Unless she signed it to him since you don't learn that until your last year at the academy.

"You both are just trolling me now."

"Why would you think that?" Shisui said but he didn't say I was wrong, in fact he was still grinning like an idiot.

Deciding to be the mature one, I walked ahead to the house Shisui gestured at and knocked on the door.

It didn't take long before Yoshino opened the door.

"Good morning Nara-San! I'm here to see my friends and the deer!" I said with a polite bow and a huge smile that forced me to close my eyes.

"Ah, Chiyome-chan It is so good to see you again. Who is this young man?"

"Uchiha Shisui, I'm her other brother."

"No he's not. Don't listen to his lies."

"Chi-chan, how can you wound me so?"

"Come in. As it so happens, by husband should be feeding the deer soon." Yoshino said with a smile, opening the door for us.

I held my shoes in my hand as I ran through the house to the backyard where I could sense a few people. There the Three of us saw the sight of Shikamaru asleep on Shikaku's chest, who looked to be cloud gazing. Nearby Choji sat next to a blonde girl who seemed moments away from throwing a tantrum.

"Shikaku! What are you doing!" Yoshino yelled, waking up Shikamaru and cause Shikaku to shoot up at the sight of his angry wife.

I put my shoes back on as I watch Yoshino chew out Shikaku. They really seem like a case of opposites attract, but before I could think more about it someone came up to me.

"Who are you?" The girl - who was most likely Ino - demanded to know.

"I'm Uchiha Chiyome, Nice to meet you!" I said regardless.

I could deal with a bratty kid.

"I'm Ya-ma-na-ka Ino. We should be friends since you're a girl like me." Ino said before grabbing my hand and pulling me off the porch.

I let her, since I do want to be her friend. But that doesn't mean I didn't glare back to Shisui who was laughing at me.

"We should be best friends." I said and Ino stopped dragging me.

"Best friends? Okay! Make my hair like yours then!" Ino announced before sitting down in front of me.

"Um... but your hair looks so pretty how it is now."

"Really? I like your hair too! I like black hair like yours and not his!" Ino said pointing to Shikamaru who was now napping next to Choji.

Not sure what to say to that, I walked over to save Shikaku from his wife.

"Excuse me, but can we see the deer now?" I asked as I pulled on his pants, making sure to use my cutest expression.

Not sure if it worked on him, but it sure did on Yoshino.

"Fine. Why don't you take the children to go see them." Yoshino said before walking back inside.

"Ya! Deer!" I yelled as I grabbed Shikaku's hand.

"Who else wants to come?" Shikaku asked, not bothering to shake me off like I thought he would.

He did look like he was contemplating if it was worst having four disappointing children or his sanity when everyone raised their hand. Shikaku did give Shisui a pointed look when he raised his hand as well.

This was turning out way better than I thought was possible.

Shisui never had a reason to visit the Nara compound before. In fact, all of his other cousin don't have any friends from the other major clans. Makoto was a year older then Chiyome and Shisui was sure she has never been outside the Uchiha compound.

It was crazy to think that Chiyome was able to befriend three of them when she wasn't even in the academy yet, though maybe it was just because she was so young. Even though she was clearly more mature than the other children, Chiyome was still able to play with them. It was odd seeing how similar she was to Itachi, but at the same time so different.

"Since their eye are on the side of their head, they don't see as well as we can, but they can see further back." Chiyome explained as she moved her arms to show how much further deer could see then normal humans.

"Really? I wish I was a deer, then I could see Ka-chan and now when I can get candy!" Ino said as she jumped up and down, causing some of the deer to back away.

"Shisui-kun, would you like to try feeding them?" Shikaku asked, pulling Shisui out of his thoughts.

"Yes, I would Nara-San."

"You can just call me Shikaku, your sister already does."

"Shisui's my second cousin. Not brother." Chiyome said, not even bothering to turn around.

"Just you wait Chi-chan. You will be calling me Shisui-nii before you know it." Shisui promised, smiling when Chiyome turned around so he could see her blank look.

"In your dreams, maybe." He heard Chiyome mumbled, but Shisui decided to pretend he didn't this time.

Then Shisui found himself next to the Chief Jōnin commander, learning how to feed deer out of your hand.

Maybe he was still dreaming, because this didn't seem real. Everything he had heard about Shikaku doesn't match this man in front of him how. It was likely because he was home with his family, but it was still not what Shisui was expecting.

All this, just because Chiyome wanted to see some animals.

"We should probably leave now." Shisui said when they got back to the Nara's house.

"NO! You can't leave yet!" Ino yelled as she grabbed Chiyome like a teddy bear.

"Why don't you two stay for lunch." Yoshino said, and how was Shisui going to refuse.

"I'm always up for free food."

"Why don't you kids come help me in the kitchen?" Yoshino said, ushering the kids insead.

Shisui followed, not because he was a kid or anything, but because he was hungry. And it was easy taking some sample of the food while Yoshino was trying to get Shikamaru to help.

"Wasn't there more noodle then this?"

"That's because Shisui has been eating it raw like the monster he is."

"Really?" Yoshino said with a truly scary look.

"Sorry!" Shisui said before getting the hell out of the kitchen.

On the way out he heard all the children laughing at him. He may not have a mom but Shisui knows never to mess with one.

"Bye!" I waved to Shikamaru as we finally left.

Playing with three three-year-olds was exhausting, and I couldn't wait to go back home and practice my reading until Itachi came back.

"Sorry we needed to head back, but do you want to meet some of our cousins? They are around your age. You could play with them until Mikoto-san gets back." Shisui said even though I clearly was tired.

Okay, maybe not clearly because I felt fine physical. I was just emotionally drained. However meeting Uchiha kids my age might be beneficial.

"Ya! Sounds like fun!" I lied through my teeth.

"Good, I was supposed to help Yuina today anyways. She's my aunt and she is going to have another baby soon."

"And you thought taking me to my friends was more important? What if she need your help babysitting or something."

"She could have hired a Genin team. Plus baa-chan was the one who wanted me to take you. No one questions Baa-chan."

I'm assuming Baa-chan was Misaki, who 60 if that. Then again, there wasn't a lot of old people in the Uchiha compound who weren't civilian. A 60 year old ninja was something worth respecting.

It was a long walk back to the compound since Shisui refused to body flicker since I 'insulted' it. It did give me the chance to look around and really notice how out of the way the Uchiha lived. All the other major and minor clans lived close to the city wall or the Hokage tower. While we lived on the other side.

"Yuina-Ba! I'm back!" Shisui yelled as we entered a house not to far from mine.

"Ka-chan the weido is back." A little girl said as soon as we entered the door.

"Makoto-chan! How are you?"

"KAA-CHAAN!" The girl yelled, running deeper into the house.

"I see now why you want me as a little sister if this is how our cousin react."

"Makoto-chan is just a little shy." Shisui said and I stared at him.

It was pretty obvious that Shisui scared the child with his happiness. Maybe Uchiha just can't take that much physical contract all at one.

I'm still thinking that Shisui has Uzumaki blood or something just from how hyper he acts.

"Shisui thanks for coming, oh and is this Mikoto-sama daughter that i've been hearing so much about." Said a very pregnant women with dark brown hair that was in a braid.

"Nice to meet you Yuina-san." I said with a bow.

"Why don't you go play with Makoto and Rina, they should both be in the backyard by now." Yuina said and a headed that way.

I have meet some of my cousin during my birthdays, but honestly I can't recall their names. Hopefully It isn't expected in this society for a three year old to know that. However this is the same place that allowed an 8 year old to graduate when the average age is 12.

I have a feeling chakra might enhance mental capabilities as well as physical.

"You're doing it wrong. Tou-chan said you have to wait a year before doing this." The little girl from before said to a baby.

A walking baby, so maybe a two year old at most.

"No."

"Rina, let go!"

"No. Mine."

A two year old with a kunai in her mouth. What the hell is wrong with this place?

"Please tell me those are training kunais." I said, apparently shocking both of them.

"You were with the weirdo. Why?"

"He took me to see my friends. I'm Chiyome by the way. Nice to meet you cousin."

"Oh, I'm Makoto, this is my sister Rina."

"Hi." Rina said, dropped the kunai in favor of waddling over to me.

"How old are you?" Makoto asked picking up the kunai before throwing it.

It hit the tree just a little off from the bullseye that was drawn on it.

"I'm three!" I said with a smile, but Makoto sighed.

"Another baby."

"How old are you then."

"I'm four." Makoto said holding up her figures.

Yes, everyone knows how big of a difference three and four is. Especially to a four year old.

Just as I was trying my best to stay polite and not sass this child, I felt something wet on my hand.

"Does your sister normally put people's hands into her mouth." I asked as I tried to remove my hand, but Rina looked like she was about to cry.

"I don't know. You're the baby here not me." Makoto said as she threw another kunai at the tree.

"Come on... Rina? Don't you have some toys to play with." I asked as I finally pulled my hand free from its wet prison and used it to grabbed Rina's.

"Kuna-chan is inside."

"Then let's go get him... or her." I said as I pulled Rina will me to walk back insead.

"Yuina-ba, are you okay?" I head Shisui asked from the kitchen.

"Yes, just... my body getting ready for the big day." Yuina said soundly slightly out of breath.

I really hope she is just talking about Braxton-Hicks contractions and not something else.

"Are you sure? Didn't you say your due date was yesterday?"

Nope. This is not happening.

"Well, yes but... arggh."

Okay, I heard enough.

"You should still go see the medic just in case Yuina-san." I said still holding onto Rina's hand.

"I can carry you there." Shisui added, looking wide eyed and disheveled.

"But Yoshiro doesn't get back until tomorrow."

"Maybe if you are... having the baby now the medic can delay it? But if you don't leave then you'll have less time to make a decision." I calmly explained, which keep Rina from freaking out and Shisui.

"That... does makes sense." Yuina said and no sooner than she did, Shisui picked her up.

"We'll be back later." Shisui said before running out the door carrying the women twice his size.

Only once they leave did I realize they left me alone with the children.

There are so many Uchiha Oc I came up with for this fic, and this is only one family. Yuina is really Shisui Aunt though. Shisui's father's brother is Yoshiro. I even made a family tree which is somewhere on my tumblr page. I might think of putting it on my AO3 version of this story as well, but I missed spelled Shisui's name on it.

Anyways, Thank you Tsuki and psulrd for the review on chapter 3 and KassieJean on chapter 4. It always makes my day to see what people thing of this story. Next chapter is going to get crazy. Expect more from Itachi, and Hinata next chapter.

Related to next chapter, what do you guys think about song lyrics in stories? I have a bad habit of skipping it, but a few times I go back and read it while playing the song.
