Sukino rubbed her eyes warily. Kazuna and Takeiishi were talking non stop at the last mission about things she NEVER wanted to hear again. Both of them were into uhh 'adult stuff' which freaked out Sukino too much. She had her mother's bad temper that scared both of them to shut up.
She changed into her chuunin outfit which consisted of a black spaghetti top, black shorts and a burgundy coloured skirt which had slits at the sides that showed off her fine thighs. Males drooled at the sight of her but drove Sasuke crazy when his daughters were dressed like strippers. Hell yeah, Akemi and Suzuka were dressed like that too. Except, Akemi's would be more…uhh revealing.
Sukino finished changing and opened her beautifully carved mahogany door and headed towards her brother's, Sawatoshi's room. She yawned and knocked on his door, calling his name to wake up.
-------------
Sukino ran through the village in a hurry. Her older sister, Suzuka went into a different direction while Sawatoshi headed towards the bridge. Her usual meeting spot was the clearing close to the training grounds where they always showed each other new jutsus. Sukino dashed through Main Street when she accidentally hit someone in the face with her weapon pouch.
"OH MY KAMI! GOMEN GOMEN GOMEN GOMEN GOMEN!" She begged, covering her mouth with her hand in fright. She accidentally hit Anko who was shopping for supplies.
"Iie, I'm ok!" Anko called to her, rubbing her forehead. Her daughter, Kiteru looked at her mother anxiously with wide sandy coloured eyes. Her long silver hair was pulled back in a ponytail which grew out quickly for a 5 year old.
"Are you sure, Anko-san?" Sukino asked worriedly. Anko nodded quickly and began picking up the objects that lay amongst the ground. Sukino helped her and soon enough, all the items were back in the bags.
"How is Kakashi-san, Anko-san?" questioned Sukino as she rubbed her eyes free of dust. Anko scratched her head sheepishly and said,
"Lazy as ever. He says he's going through 'problems' and won't train Kiteru OR Kazuna!" Sukino smiled at the thought of her parent's mentor.
"Is that so? Well, say hello to the Kakashi-san for me. Anyway, gotta go!" She waved goodbye to Kiteru and Anko as she headed towards the clearing. When she arrived there, no one had come. With a vein popping out of her head, she sat down and started meditating.
"GOOD MORNING SUKINO-CHAN!" Inuzuka Takeiishi was probably the loudest person before Sukino. She sighed and turned around to see Takeiishi smirking ear to ear holding an orange gripped between his fingers.
"Oh no you…" SPLURT!
Kazuna came, wondering through the forest to find his two teammates sitting on the clearing floor. Takeiishi had his back to Sukino, bruises and cuts covering his body. Sukino sat there, her face covered in orange liquid and bits.
"Don't tell me," he said before Takeiishi could complain to him. The three of them sat down in a circle, Sukino glaring at Takeiishi evilly. Takeiishi cowered behind Kazuna.
"Takeiishi, if you want to play baby, go hang out with my sister!" Kazuna told his teammate.
"But she scares me…" He whimpered pathetically. Sukino rolled her eyes.
"Any missions today, Kazuna-kun? (NOTE THE –KUN!)" She asked, twirling a kunai with her fore finger. He looked at her and took out a scroll.
"What is it? B? C? Or maybe even an A!" exclaimed Takeiishi with wide eyes. Kazuna opened the scrolled carefully and all three put their heads in to check their new mission.
"Dog walking…" Sukino sighed, a sweat drop over her head. It was another D.
------------
Sukino limped towards the training grounds where the memorial lay. She passed the marble monument and headed towards the cemetery where her deceased uncle lay. She placed the bouquet of flowers beside the multiples that lay around the gravestone.
She smiled kindly at the thought of her dead uncle, waiting for his family up in heaven…
Itachi, Akemi and Sakura sat at the kitchen table, drinking tea. Sukino suddenly came through the room and screamed. She pulled out a kunai aimed at Itachi while Akemi and Sakura ducked. Itachi smiled, holding the cup to his lips and skillfully caught the kunai between the index finger and middle.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING HERE, MISSING-NIN?" Sukino screamed. She pointed at Akemi and Sakura.
"Are you…siding with the BAD GUYS!" Akemi and Sakura sweatdropped. Before she knew it, Itachi had come up in front of her and stroked her strange hair tenderly.
"Hmmm… interesting hair… unique temper… are you sure this is your child, Sakura-san?" He said examining Sukino with his rough hands grasping her chin gently. Sakura giggled.
"Of course Itachi-kun she's mine!" Sukino's murky eyes widened.
"ITACHI! YOU ARE ITACHI? WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING IN THIS HOUSE!" Sukino wretched her head out of his reach and backed away. Akemi sighed.
"Suki, shut up! He's a good guy!" Akemi screamed at her sister. Itachi pet Akemi's fiery hair slowly.
"Don't scream at your little sister Akemi-chan, she's only 13…" Sukino's eyes widened once more.
"HOW DO YOU KNOW MY AGE! DO YOU STALK ME OR SOMETHING!" Sukino shouted frighteningly, slowly raising her finger accusingly at Itachi.
"Suki, he's your uncle!" Sakura finally put her foot in the wild argument. Sakura sighed and slowly began explaining the situation to Sukino. Of course, she was only 13, what age could understand something as crazy as what their family went through?
"OH I SEE! So YOU'RE my uncle!" Sukino said interestingly. Itachi nodded solemnly, reaching for more tea.
Suddenly, the door burst open and in came Sasuke, unaware that his brother was in the house kitchen. He passed the group to grab the carton of milk from the fridge. He didn't seem to notice Itachi sitting there, holding the cup in his hand right in front of his face. Sasuke turned to see the black haired man sitting at his kitchen table, looking amused. Sasuke spat out the milk he held in his mouth and it flew onto the party that were seated.
"EW! TOUSAN!" Sukino screamed, making a face when the white liquid covered her clothing. Sasuke ignored her and pointed a condemning finger at Itachi's face.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING HERE! TRYING TO KILL MY FAMILY?" Itachi chuckled at his little brother's words.
"Of course not. We're all here for a cup of tea little brother," Itachi raised the cup up to Sasuke's red face. "Seems you've got a bit of humor in your blood now, thanks to Sakura-chan." Sakura smiled kindly at her brother in law.
"-twitch twitch- Is this how you greet me? I've been trying to hunt you down!" Sasuke yelled. Itachi laughed heartily once more, making Sukino jump. His laugh sounded so dim but yet meaningful.
"Gee, you're a slow duck. I've been accepted once again thanks to my lovely niece, and your wife invited me to lunch. Here, you can have the remaining sushi." Itachi slid the plate to Sasuke. Almost reluctantly, Sasuke began chewing on the food, glaring at his brother with deadly thoughts running through his mind. Sakura looked at both the Uchiha brothers nervously, making sure Sasuke won't lash out. Akemi stared at her father, making sure he wouldn't pounce on her beloved uncle. Sukino sat there, obviously confused. Silence hung in the Uchiha household for several days after Itachi's visit.
-----------------------------------------
Sukino could remember the hollow silence that rang through the house for the whole week. Sasuke sat on the kitchen table, not daring to move, deep in thought. Sakura had told her children that Itachi and Sasuke had a rough time as kids and that never changed. So it would be a bit different now, seeing as the younger now has children while the other is an uncle.
While the 7 Uchiha offspring sat in the tatami mat that lay in the living room, Akemi sat there noiselessly staring off into space. When Yotura shook her out of her daydream, she burst into tears. Finally, after moments of calming, she told them the secret Itachi hid.
Itachi has Linitis Plastica which is something like lung cancer. It has infected his stomach and will later cause him to die. It is now too late for him to be healed, seeing it has already destroyed nearly all of his stomach. As she told the story, Sasuke was there, listening to it behind the screen door. When all of them went into the kitchen for dinner, they found Sasuke, his back slumping on the wall, tears quietly pouring down his face.
------------------------------------------
Sukino sighed as she opened the front door to the Uchiha mansion. Sure, it was big and comfy, but it was just too far from everything else in Konoha.
"Hello tou-san," Everyone's acid voice came from the kitchen. Sukino got ready before her father could say another word.
"What's with this painful aura that's hung itself over my family? WE'LL TRY THAT…" Sukino came from behind Sasuke and blocked his mouth. She could feel his teeth pinching her skin painfully. He grabbed her hand and flung it off. She managed to dodge his punch which was coming from beneath and poked her father's head with a flick of her finger. He flinched and sent a roundhouse kick to the red haired girl. But all that stopped when Sakura came in, bonking her husband's head with a chakra infused fist. That shut him up. He fell to the floor in a daze. Sakura smiled at Sukino and said,
"Let's help Akemi shall we?"
