Smoke looked at the boy- no, man standing in-front of him, after 3 years it seemed that he hadn't changed at all, apart from his gear. He was wearing, black high-collared shirt with standard issue ANBU armour over top, arm guards up to his elbows and black combat pants, with black ninja sandals to finish off the uniform, But what stood out the most for Smoke was the look in this person's eyes, it was the look of defeat. Smoke knew that feeling all to well, the feeling of hopelessness, the feeling that no matter what you do it wont be ok, where all you need is someone to keep you going, Smoke decided he would be that person, he would help this man, after all what kind of brother would he be if he didn't.

"Hello, little brother." Itachi needed no more words, he ran towards his brother and wrapped his arms around him as he started to cry into smokes shoulder. Smoke was more than just a little surprised at this, he knew that if his brother was having such difficulty with his emotions then whatever had happened had not been good."Show me what happened Itachi." Smoke pulled his head back so that he could look into Itachi's sharingan with his own, and what he saw as the images were passed over to him angered- no, they didn't just anger him, he felt murderous that Itachi was given such an order, he knew there and then that he would return to the leaf to take Danzo's head and question Hiruzen about the loyalty of not just the ninjas to the village, but the loyalty of the village to its first Itachi would need to rest, he would make sure that Itachi would be there to watch Sasuke grow, as would he, he just had to sort out the mess Itachi had put their little brother in first. "Please forgive me Sensei, but I must ask something of yo-"

"You may go" The Grand-master's eyes were soft and seemed to be full of sadness for the young Uchiha. "This will be your longest mission yet Smoke, you will return to the Elemental Countries and become a shinobi again, where you will look after your family."

"I take it that I will still be a member of the Lin Kuei as well?" asked Smoke with hope in his voice, he had come to know the Assassins as a family over the past years.

"Of course Smoke, as you know no one leaves the Lin Kuei, if you would ever find yourself in need of a message and i will relay one to you, however there may be times were I will need you to take on a mission regardless whether you asked for it or not as you will be one of few contacts we have in the elemental countries, and the only one in the fire nation."

"If I am accepted back as a shinobi by the present Hokage I will need a scroll with your seal on as proof of any missions from the Lin Kuei, however I do not wish for a truce between the village and us, it would not do well after i go after Donzo for his crimes."

"Agreed I will begin with the scroll now, you might want to begin packing your things to head out tomorrow, it would not do good to leave your business to late."

Smoke thanked the Grand-master and led Itachi to his room so that he could rest.

That night

Smoke was sat next to his bed as Itachi was sleeping, just watching him this peaceful was enough for Smoke, he didn't want to sleep that night, he had to much to think about, his mind was going through all the ways to make sure that Itachi would be their for their little brother, it's not to say he didn't want to be their himself, but if his mind wipe had worked correctly then his ,little brother would not remember him, he knew Fugaku took all the memories out of the family pictures and forbid anyone in the clan to mention his name, it didn't make him angry, it actually made him happy, happy to know that his little brother didn't have to o through the pain of having two off your brothers leave you. But no matter how much he thought about it tonight it would make no difference, he would just have to hope that it was not to late.

The next day

"I guess this is farewell Grand-master."

"I will come visit you one day my student, after all, i would like to get to know the family of my strongest assassin, and most importantly, the son I never had." Smoke was surprised at these words, he knew how his sensei felt, but it went without saying, but hearing those words brought such happiness that even Itachi was smiling at the affection in the old ,mans voice.

"Goodbye, Father." Smoke whispered as he and Itachi dissipated in a cloud of smoke.

5 miles outside of Konoha:

A column of smoke could be seen appearing in a clearing with to figures seeming to take shape from the smoke.

"What the hell was that?" From the look of Itachi and the sounds of him lurching, smoke realized that it was likely that his brother had never teleported before.

"Ha ha, sorry there little brother, I seem to forget that there aren't that many space-time jutsu users anymore" Smoke was almost on the floor from the look on hos brothers face. Smoke knew that wasn't the only reason that Itachi was surprised, he wasn't sure how but for as long as he could remember he could use the Smoke jutsu, he had tried to find information on how, why and if there were any other people that could do what he could do, but he got no where, there was a clan that he looked into that were able to change their entire body into smoke, but as far as he learned while he could succeed in that, they were not able to use it for jutsu. He never told anyone when he was younger and he knew it wasn't from the Uchiha blood in his veins but from his mothers side. However, the only person that could of told him who his mother was made choices that led to an early departure, not that Fugaku would of told him anyway, the last time Smoke asked him who his mother was it ended up in a full scale fight that multiple members of the clan had to break up after Fugaku insulted his mother, Smoke didn't know why but he felt protective over her, he just hoped that one day he would be able to find her, he had so many questions.

"How come you never spoke to me?" Smoke turned around and immediately saw the hurt in his brothers eyes, he had wanted so much to tell his little brother about his unique skill, but there were so many reasons why he couldn't.

"I wanted to, Itachi, more than you will ever know. But you saw how O was treated by the whole clan, I was envied and shunned for the skills I had outside the Sharingan, I rarely used it on missions while the rest of the clan seemed to flaunt it like a trophy of their power, there have been very few people that i have fought with the sharingan activated, and I have respect for each one." Smoke's voice was distant as if remembering something from the past. "Do you remember what I told you Itachi, even family have secrets, our fathers was the identity of my father, mine is the fact that I am as far as I can tell, the last user of Smoke style, and your's well that will be changed in a few days." Itachi was horrified, his brother couldn't mean what he thought he meant, could he?

"You can't mean-" Smoke never let him finish.

"Yes, I will speak to Hiruzen and a new cover story for the massacre shall be formed, I will not watch Sasuke grow to hate you while you join that excuse for an organisation." Itachi's eyes widened at that, how could he know about the mission. "i know more than you might give me credit for brother, and do not fear, we will speak to Sasuke after I sort out the real reason that the 3 of us are the last Uchiha." Smoke's eyes narrowed as he began to walk towards the village, his body being slowly covered in a wave of smoke that seemed to change his appearance, looking at his brother now, Itachi knew that he was looking for a fight. Smoke was still in his black undershirt and combat trousers, however the over armour was now what looked like a more advanced version of ANBU armour, and his boots had steel plates on the heel and toes, but what made Itachi most fearful of his brother was the aura he put out as he slid what looked like a pair of sai's to the back of his belt and another par to his left leg next to his shuriken pouch.

Smoke turned to Itachi as the smoke that changed his outfit settled around the lower half of his face to form a grey mask, that finished of his entire appearance as it gave the effect of him breathing out smoke. He pulled on the cloak that was standard issue from the Lin Kuei with the emblem on the back the pitch black fabric pulled the hood up and continued towards Konoha.

"Donzo will pay for crossing me this time, this, is where his line ends."
