Sasuke happily jumped out of his uncles car and ran towards his house, excitement and pride glowing on his features.

He ran into his house through the open door, which should have been shut, and ran around his house trying to find his mother and father, his young mind oblivious to the mess the house was in.

"MUM, DAD!"

His little legs carried him up the stairs and towards his parents room, excitement growing with every step he took.

"SASUKE! GET BACK HERE NOW!" Kakashi shouted frantically after the child.

But it was too late, He had run straight into his parents room and screamed.

A minute later his uncle was carrying him away from the house, police cars were all over his drive, the sirens and flashing lights blurred together as tears fell from his small onyx eyes as he stared ahead in pure shock his mind lost only focusing on the image of his parents lifeless bodies and blood covering the entire room.

"Naru chan, you're so cute!" his mother squealed giggling in pure delight at her son who ran around pretending he was a fox in his costume.

Naruto gave a cute cheeky smile before he jumped on his mother. "Im going to kiss you to death mum" he giggled.

"Oh no please" his mum faked as her son pounced on her and started smothering her in kisses.

"What's this I hear, a damsel in distress!" His father proclaimed bursting into the room before he started tickling his son.

"Don't worry fair maiden I shall rescue you"

Naruto squirmed under his fathers tickling fingers laughing and squealing, "D-DAD S-STOP N-NO MOOORREEE!"

Laughing his dad stopped and gave his son a kiss on the forehead before also giving his wife a kiss.

"Ok, are we ready to go?" Minato asked his wife and son

"YES!" Naruto shouted in excitement

Naruto followed his parents out to the car his mother helping him get in, an hour later they arrived at he theme park.

"OMG! ITS SO BIG! AND LOOKS SO COOL!" Naruto shouted in pure excitement while running and jumping around, his parents laughing at their hyper son.

"Come here Naru chan we need to go and get our tickets first!" his mother called to him.

Naruto spent the day on rides and playing at the many stalls winning plushies, thanks to his father, and eating sweets.

Once back in the car and exhausted Naruto told his parents that it was the best day of his life before falling asleep, unaware of the approaching danger.

Hours later, Naruto found himself waking to the sound of smashing, he climbed out of his bed and went to investigate.

As he approached the stairs he heard his parents voices, but there was something different about them, they sounded scared.

Deciding to see what was going on the curious 5 year old crept down the stairs, stopping halfway.

Peering through the bannister railings he saw his mother and father tied up with a man dressed in black standing behind them pointing two guns at each of their heads, Naruto didn't fully understand what was going on but he knew it was bad.

Another man was in the kitchen pulling things out of cupboards and letting them smash all over the floor, a third was searching for something in the front room.

"WHERE IS IT!?" one of the men shouted

"We don't know what you're talking about" his father replied

"We know you have it, tell us where it is or your pretty little wife here gets a bullet in her head!"

"I promise you, I don't know what you're talking about"

"Stop playing dumb, we know you have it, it's only a matter of time before we find it, either way you're going to die whether you tell us or not"

What happened next was a blur Naruto moved slightly as his leg was starting to go numb, causing the stairs to creak, the men instantly turned towards him looking directly at him, his mother had tried to run towards him in attempt to protect him, a shot was fired the sound ringing in his ears as he saw his mother now laying on the floor blood pooling from her body. His father started shouting at him to run, with one last look at his parents he ran as fast as he could back upstairs, into his parents room, he opened the window climbing out of his onto the overhanging roof above the garage, without thinking he jumped off the end onto the family car setting the alarm off, sliding off the roof onto the bonnet then onto the floor. He stared running but could only go so fast as his foot hurt, he went to the only place he knew how to get to, his godfathers.

Iruka answered the door to his 5yr old godson, who was out of breath and crying hysterically.
