Heyheyheyy! Here's the next chap! thank you all for the reviews, glad to know my story isn't lost after the long period of no update! :D

The Uchiha District consisted for clones of ebony hair, cold indifferent hues, pale skin and the overwhelming feelings of pride and ego. Postures of dignified sense of superior, sneers of anyone of lesser strength and power, kids that should be laughing joyfully playing idle games were non existent- there only ever was training. That and politics.

Uchiha Itachi, unfortunately, would not escape his dreadful fate.

There was a chance one. A chance to leave all that was within the Uchiha District, in that damned name alone, in exchange of freedom. To move at his own pace. To be his own person. But that was once before. Now that Sasuke was around, his chances were lost. Prodigy he may be, but at heart he was a brother, and no brother of Itachi's would face the cruelty he was bestowed upon.

So you could say, stepping a foot into his lifeless household and hearing the sounds of unknown laughter mingling with his own mother's lost joy, was a shock indeed.

With his stoic façade back in place, he followed the sound and found himself at the open room of the kitchen. The table that witnessed the ever silence of his family was now being crowded by his mother, brother, an ignored Shisui and a certain woman who had taken residence in his thoughts around steaming bowls of oden.

"Waaaahh Mikoto! This is beyond good!" Kagome praised. "Much better than my usual PB and J!"

Mikoto, though slightly confused at whatever this 'PB and J' was, could not help but drown herself within Kagome's praises. The light she craved in her own home was finally here, and she was not going to let go of it.

"Oh stop it, dear, you're too kind."

If he could, Itachi would have dropped anime style. His mother, MOTHER, never ever flushed, or giggled, or came close to anything considered… girly! It was alien! She was the Uchiha Patriarch! A calm, composed, schooled emotion was what he was brought up with. Even Sasuke seemed a bit put off by her sudden change of attitude. Then again, Itachi was not blind to his mother's need to express her true feelings, but he didn't expect it to be this maddening!

"Oh Itachi! You're home!"

"Now you notice my presence." Itachi thought as he inclined his head towards his mother and brother. Kagome, on the other hand, was special enough to receive an untrusting glare.

Instead of glaring back, she mustered up a smile. A smile that clearly meant trouble.

"Ahh Uchiha, you never told me your mum was a great cook!"

Kagome didn't know what came over her. Just moments before she stepped into the head of Uchiha house, she was determined to forcefully squeeze herself into the stuck up lives of these emotional constipated clones. But this! This was beyond her reasoning. The first smell of oden, the first slightest sniff her knees weakened, heart soared, and whatever in her life didn't matter.

Surprisingly, Uchiha Mikoto wasn't part of her emotionally constipated category. Her public personal was only for the sake of her status. Thank the kami's there was at least one person who didn't have a stick up their ass. And Kagome made sure to indulge herself in that before moving to her next target.

Uchiha Sasuke.

Actually, now that she thought about it, Sasuke wasn't much of a target. He was just…there. An annoying asshole of a friend that grated her nerves even though all she wanted to do was wring his petty neck and throw him off a cliff. But she wouldn't have that, especially not in front of Mikoto. She was her ticket to a successful mission!

Uchiha Shisui was another issue. But he was gladly ignored.

"Oh Kagome dear, where have you been all my life?"

"Living in another village pretending to be some fucking innocent healer."

"You're such a light to this gloomy household."

"If only you knew my shitty reasons."

"Sasuke must be so happy to have you train him. I never knew you were well knowledge with the ninja arts."

"That's cause I'm not."

"Haha- how funny you are!"

"Yeah, yeah, I kno- wait what?"

Confused, Kagome had no idea what Mikoto was laughing at, but not wanting to look like a fool, she quickly took a spoonful of her steaming oden and her eyes glazed with love.

"Waaaahh Mikoto! This is beyond good! Much better than my usual PB and J!" She exclaimed in all honesty! Nudging Sasuke, who was seated beside her, she gave him a half glare for never inviting her over when he paraded into her apartment all the time.

"Fuck my life. Adopt me, Mikoto, please! I'll light up your house all you want if you'll cook for me!" She thought not hearing said woman's reply. But what she did hear was when she addressed her older son. And as if thrown out of la-la land, her reasoning's and purpose of being there came rushing back to her.

Fuck.

"Ahh Uchiha, you never told me your mum was a great cook!" She said trying not to break into a nervous wreck at his intense glare.

And that is it! what ya'll think?
