We get to know about Mikoto's mother! –le gasp-

~Flashback~

Kaeda had just gotten back to her holding cell in one of Orochimaru's hideouts. She ran her fingers though her thick wavy brown hair and sighed. She was worn out. Since six AM she had been training nonstop with her cell mate, Mizuki, until this point.

She flopped onto her bed and kicked off her shoes, she had been feeling more and more worn out every day, but she thought she was just getting stronger.

Kaeda relaxed on her bed for a bit, something she would try to do every day, and daydreamed about everything and nothing.

She thought about her family that was long gone, which she could thank Orochimaru for.

x

She was at home with her mother, father and little brother and they were about to have dinner. A knock was heard at the front door and her little brother, at the time was ten, ran for the door saying "I've got it!" He opened the door to a completely darkened figure. The man raised his hand and smacked the little boy into the wall, knocking him out completely. He walked into the dining room and his features were shown in the light.

He had long black hair that was very straight and fine. He had creepy golden snake like eyes that glowed behind his black hair, and his skin was white as a sheet.

"What the hell!" Her father had yelled while slamming his fists into the table and standing up.

"I'm here for...her." He said in a very eerie voice while pointing a slender white finger at Kaeda, who at the time was twelve.

"Why?" Her mother stood up, as mad as her father while Kaeda sat in her chair, astonished as ever.

"Well you see... I know you two know of your daughters' condition, seeing as how she's the Jinchuriki to the ten tails. I feel she could be useful to me seeing as how the ten tails is the strongest of them all." Orochimaru explained while a big evil grin spread across his face.

"I'm not letting her being taken by the likes of you!" Her father yelled while digging his hand into his pouch. Orochimaru chuckled lightly and in half a second a kunai was in the throat of Kaeda's father. Blood gushed out of the hole in his throat and he fell to the floor with muffled gurgling and choking.

"Oh my god!" Her mother yelled and ran to his side with tears falling to the ground.

"Father..." Kaeda choked back her tears and turned to face Orochimaru. "How could you!" She screamed at the man who could only laugh a little.

"Why you..."Her mother growled as she stood to her feet. Her family were all shinobi but the town they were in were not the strongest of the bunch. Soon enough her mother had joined Kaeda's father and fell to the floor, dead in an instant. A kunai to the forehead.

"Mother!" Kaeda gasped, she tried to run towards her mother and father but Orochimaru snaked a hand around her waist and pulled her up.

"Let go of me!" She screamed, her blue chakra formed around her body, she was already cloaked.

"I'm sorry." He grinned and pulled a washcloth up to her face and knocked her out with the fumes.

x

Kaeda wiped her tears away with her hand while sitting back up on her bed. She never knew what happened to her little brother; he was probably under the care of an elder in the town. She didn't have any other family.

"Ehh Kaeda, were you dreaming again?" Mizuki asked as she sat beside her friend and patted her on the back. Kaeda nodded and sniffled a bit.

"Yes, I'm fine. I just want to visit my brother and see how's he's doing."

"Speaking of brother, is that Sasuke guy ever coming back?" Mizuki chuckled as she waggled her eyebrows. Kaeda gasped and narrowed her eyes at her friend.

"Shut up." She said as she got up. "I'm going to leave"

"Gonna go see Sasuke?" Mizuki joked again as she laid down on Kaeda's bed.

"No!" She shouted as she turned back towards her red haired cell mate. "For your information I'm going to go find my brother! It's been four years; I want to see how he is... Or if he's still alive."

Kaeda quickly packed her things and walked towards the door.

"How old is your brother now?" Mizuki asked before her friend left.

"Around fourteen." Kaeda informed her. "Anyways I got to go, I'll see you in a while."

"Fine fine. Byeee don't get hurrrt!" Mizuki bid her farewells in a childish voice, making Kaeda seem like a baby.

Kaeda headed North, her village was always covered with snow, it disappointed her to no end. She hoped to get there by dawn, hopefully if she didn't get sidetracked.

There she was, her village was in the distance, not too far away, a ten minute walk. And of course it was covered in snow. She walked towards it and saw her old house. Maybe he was still staying there?

She opened the door and warm air blew in her face, that's something she would always love, the warmth of her house.

"Hello? Souta?" She called out. No response.

'Where's somewhere where he would be?' She thought to herself and she went into deep thought. 'I can check the academy... School did start half an hour ago...'

She made her decision and stepped back outside. She scouted the area and spotted the school. That's where she learned everything she knew, made some friends, and learned how to control her tailed beast.

She walked through the doors and found a familiar classroom with one group of people at the top of the bleachers/seats. One was a girl, around her brother's age. She had long blonde hair tied in a loose briad. A boy was by her side, also fourteenish. He had short black hair that was spiked in one direction with piercing yellow eyes. Then another boy was by their side, a very familiar one.

"Souta?" She asked, walking up to the group. The boy turned around and looked at Kaeda with his emerald greend eyes.

"Kaeda!" He happily yelled as he brought his sister into a hug. This to her was weird since they were around the same height now.

"Souta!" She grinned with tears in her eyes. "I thought you were dead!"

"What the hell are you talking about? I thought you of all people were going to be dead." He scoffed as he crossed his black clad arms. He wore black baggy sweats that stopped right above where his black shoes started. He wore a black skin tight sweater, similar to an anbu black ops sweater. His had darker brown hair than hers and it was spiked up.

"No... I'm very much alive." She stated followed by a small chuckle.

"So, snake pedo hasn't done anything with you has he?" He grinned as he burst into laughter. Was he talking about Orochimaru? Snake pedo... Yup, it was Oro.

"Hahaha, no." She laughed but her no was serious. "I can defend myself y'know."

"Sure you can. Anyway we got to go meet our sensei, come with is." He said as he crossed his arms behind his head.

"Guys, this is my sister. Sister, this is my team." Souta half assed introduced them as they walked out the door. Kaeda waved at the two who waved back and they were outside in the snow.

"Ugh." Kaeda moaned as she placed a hand to her abdomen. "I don't feel too good."

"Go to the hospital then..?" Souta questioned, putting a hand on his sisters shoulder. Kaeda thought for a second and nodded.

"Yeah, I think I might." She smiled at her brother. He was so caring. Ever since he was little all he ever wanted to do was help people.

"Well, we sort of have a mission..."He mumbled, looking down at the pavement ashamed. He didn't want to tell his sister that she better hurry up and leave, but that was the nicest way to put it.

"Oh yeah, I know. I guess I better go to the hospital than. Where can I find you afterwards?" She asked as she slowly started down the street.

"Our house." He called out before she was down the street. He was so glad snake pedo didn't touch her. He hated that weird old guy. He just seemed like a creepy rapist man to Souta.

Kaeda was walking down the street, her legs started to hurt from trudging in the snow but she would be in the hospital anyhow so it wouldn't matter.

She walked through the automatic glass door to the small hospital and walked up to the front desk.

"Hi, would it be possible to see a doctor?" She asked, slightly leaning over the desk with pain. But she would never admit that.

"Yes yes..." The secretary said as she looked up from her clipboard and papers. "Ehhh, is that you Kaeda?" Kaeda chuckled and nodded.

"Yes"

"Ahhh it's nice to see you. I babysat your brother for a little while about three years ago. Anyways follow me." Kaeda nodded and followed her into a room and she was instructed to sit. A couple minutes later a male doctor, maybe in his twenties walked in with a clipboard in hand.

"Alright Ms. Yokoyama what can I do for you today?" He asked as he sat in his black swivel chair.

"Well, my abdomen is really sore. And for a couple days I've been vomiting when I wake up." She reported.

"Hmmm. When was the last time you had sex?" He raised a small black eyebrow.

"Uh uh uh uh..." She stuttered and couldn't find the right answer. The last time she had sex? She thought back and quickly a deep red blush covered her face.

'It was the night Orochimaru had brought Sasuke and a couple others to stay at our hideout for a little while... That was like... A month or two ago...Ugh. Wait, is he implying I'm pregnant?' She had about a million thoughts zinging in her head before the doctor had placed a small stick in her palm.

"You know what to do?" He asked her with a small caring smile on his face.

"Y-yes." She once again stuttered and followed him to the bathroom. She locked the door behind her and let out a mental scream.

She ran over to the sink and splashed her face with water, maybe which would calm her down. She shook her brown hair out of her face and sighed.

Kaeda did her business and left the stick on the counter and ran to the other side of the bathroom.

'How nerve wracking!' She thought as she stared at the stick evilly. 'I swear...'

A couple minutes passed and it was time. Time to go look at the stick. To see if she was pregnant or not. She picked it up and held it nervously in her pam. She bit her lip and swallowed.

She took a peek at the stick with her emerald green eyes.

Pregnant.

She almost fainted.

She finally composed herself after many tears and huffed out the bathroom door and back to the doctor.

"Oh hey, I know what's wrong... Thank you..." She said in a hurry and scurried down the hallway and out the door. She ran down the street and back to her old home and flopped onto the bed.

'I'm pregnant. I'm sixteen and pregnant. I'm pregnant with that's asshole's kid. Tch.' She let out a long and angry moan and strolled over to the kitchen.

She looked though the fridge. What was there? Monster, Red Bull, Chocolate milk, expired milk and one bottle of water. She shook her head and grabbed the water. She would have a talk with her little brother about that.

It was about two or three hours later when Souta came home.

"Hey sis." He dropped his bag onto the floor and walked over to the couch she was lying on. "How was the doctor?" She huffed and looked away.

"I'm pregnant." She whispered angrily and turned over on her side. She could hear Souta laughing as he covered his mouth with a hand.

"Ha- no wow. Um..." He stuttered, trying not to laugh. "Ok ok. You're pregnant. Who's the dad?" He watched as she pouted and made an angry face.

"Don't tell me you don't know, because that would be terrible." He stated, sitting on the couch beside her. A small smile appeared on his face as he stared at his sister.

"It's a guy..."

"Oh! Really! I wouldn't have thought!"

"Shut up you stupid idiot!"

"Only if you tell me if you do know who the dad is and you tell me his name."

"His name... Is Sasuke."

"See! That's all." He sneered and reached for a T.V remote. He turned it on and started watching a show called 'Manswers'. There were lots of boobs. Let's leave it at that.

"Gross!" She gasped when two women started making out while maple syrup was being poured on them.

"Nuh uh."

x

"Be safe. I'd escort you back to snake pedo's hideout but I'm needed here." Souta said as he gave his sister a hug.

"Don't worry about it. I'll try and visit ok?" He nodded and let her off. She ran as fast as she could. She didn't want anybody to notice that she was gone. And she missed her own bed, so it was all good.

Kaeda finally reached her cell and threw herself down.

'Hey your back! Is your brother alive?" She heard Mizuki call out from the room beside hers and walk over.

"Yeah... He is." She smiled. She was so happy it wasn't even funny. He was the only family she had left. And soon to be child. Pfft.

"How is he?"

"Good. Just like any normal teenage boy. Unhealthy food and shows with wrestling and breasts." She chuckled and sat up. Mizuki laughed and responded with an "I know right."

"There's something I need to tell you..." Kaeda mumbled, she was super embarrassed but she had to tell her.

"Yeah what is it?"

"I'm pregnant!" She sheepishly stated all the while fumbling with her fingers.

"EHHH!" She cried while scrambling over to Kaeda. "With whoooo?"

"Tch, you know who." Kaeda wanted to smack her upside the head. Mizuki teased her over that night for ages. 'Little bitch...' She thought. Mizuki gasped and smacked her cheeks with her palms.

"No way no way!" She screeched. Mizuki clutched Kaeda's duvet with sparkles in her eyes. "It's Sasuke's! I can't believe it!"

"I can't either!" Kaeda screamed while pulling the flat pillow over her head.

"Chill out, at least you know the baby will be beautiful..."

"Pfft. Whatever, I'm going to sleep."

x

'Damn this stomach of mine.' Kaeda thought angrily as she waddled over to her bed. 'I can't even see my toes! And I can already tell I'm going to have stretch marks!'

She was due any day now, which frightened her to a point of no return. About a million of the stupidest ideas ran though her head every day. Such as: What if the baby won't ever come out and I'm stuck with this huge stomach forever! And the priceless one: What if the baby comes out and it's deformed with one toe and twelve fingers and it has only one eye!

She was obviously being paranoid.

A woman down the hallway was a nurse and agreed to deliver the baby when it came. And nobody was to report this to Orochimaru. Ever.

As for Sasuke, would he even care? All he ever worries about is "Am I strong enough?" and "Can I ever defeat Itachi?"

Kaeda's predictions of Sasuke's reaction to the baby? Hmph. That's what he would say, or grunt or huff, whichever way he would like. He would walk away and leave her to care for the child; therefore, Sasuke did not have to know. It's like they were a tiny little dot in his mind, compared to Itachi they were nothing.

And even if Sasuke would stick around to be there for the kid, would he even love it? He isn't the type to even care about a baby. He couldn't hold the baby and tell the baby he/she would be safe in his arms. He couldn't hold his kids hand when they went to school for the first time. He couldn't do anything like that. So why bother?

All he would do is say "Hn." If the child passes the academy and gets a headband. The only thing he would be proud of is if the child could activate the Sharingan, was the greatest ninja ever and had no emotions.

As for the last name of the child, of course it would be Yokoyama. Mizuki had told her that Sasuke would probably want to be there for the baby, seeing as how he has no other family, but she sort of pushed that out of her mind. Sure the child would still be an Uchiha, but... Ugh. That's what Kaeda thought at least.

Kaeda was thinking all this over when suddenly something happened. Something down below..

'Did my water just break?' She thought nervously as she bolted upward. Yup, she did. She gulped and grabbed her abdomen and waddled down the hall to that woman's holding cell.

She frantically knocked on the door, she hoped that she would be there, and she was!

"Oh hello dear, is the baby coming?" She asked politely, inviting her in. It was weird, Kaeda didn't know how you could be so cheery in a place like this, and that woman was so nice! She didn't deserve to be in her in the first place. She had sat Kaeda down.

x

Mizuki had appeared before Kaeda and held her hand while Kaeda screamed in pain.

"Push a couple more times and the baby will be here!" The woman called while delivering the child.

"It hurts!" Kaeda screamed while gripping Mizuki's hand as hard a possible, which Mizuki was ok with.

Soon enough a loud shrill cry was heard in the room and was brought to a counter where the woman cleaned the child up and wrapped it in a grey blanket.

"It's a girl! And she's healthy." She chimed and placed the child into Kaeda's arms. The baby girl was small, but healthy. Kaeda smiled proudly and touched her baby's cheek.

"She's so... Cute." She gushed over her newborn child.

"Yeah..." Mizuki and the woman both said as they looked at the squirming baby in Kaeda's arms.

The little girl opened her eyes and to everyone's surprise they were a deep black, identical to her fathers. A small chuckle could be heard from Mizuki when she saw that.

'Whatever...' She thought. 'She's still adorable.'

x

It's been about a month since the baby's birth and Kaeda named her Aiko which meant love child. But she didn't love Sasuke, so... Oh well. A man down the opposite hallway had made a crib out of the old beds from abandoned rooms, which was pretty nice of him. Honestly, all the nicest people in the world were there.

Aiko was sleeping soundly in her crib when Kaeda decided to write a letter to Aiko's father. Mizuki had forced to make one. As for looks, Aiko's hair was too fine and short to tell whether she had her father's boring black or her brown.

She sat down at a desk and pulled out a piece of paper and a pencil. Her letter went a little something like this...

x

Sasuke,

I know you probably don't remember me, but I think you should know I am the mother to your newborn child. Don't think I am pinning a baby that I don't know the father to on you; because I know she is yours. You took my virginity when Orochimaru brought you to the hideout I was in. And our daughter looks just like you, so you can't say she's not yours.

She was born only two weeks ago on October 18th.

I do not expect you to take responsibility because I could care less if you were here or not. As for our daughters last name I gave her mine.

Sincerely,

Kaeda Yokoyama.

x

Kaeda folded the letter and placed it inside an envelope. She wrote 'Sasuke Uchiha' on the front and walked towards a small window, which she had specially made for this type of thing. Her small hawk stood on the window sill. She pet her pet hawk and tied to envelope to its leg.

"Bring this to Akahana in the Hideout south of here. You've brought her a letter once, so it's not that hard." She told the hawk. She placed a small carrot in its mouth and it flew away.

She sent letters to her brother all the time, and to Akahana, so when Akahana would get the letter for Sasuke, she would know to deliver it to him. Kaeda was so glad she had that hawk.

x

Kaeda held the small baby in her lap while playing with her. She had a small head of hair, black hair to be exact. Not something Kaeda was expecting, her child looked exactly like her father, and it bugged her. It's like she's face to face with him every day. But Aiko actually laughed and giggled and loved, not like her father. That's something Kaeda loved. She would have been greatly upset if she had a child that hated her and plotted to kill her.

x

"Sasuke, a letter for you." A woman yelled at Sasuke's door. Sasuke got up from his bed and opened his door so he could only see a crack of her face.

"Here" She pushed the letter into his hands then turned on her heels and walked away. Sasuke closed the door and sat on his bed. It was going to be hard to read in this light but he could make it. He opened the letter labeled 'Sasuke Uchiha and unfolded it.

Who the hell would be writing him a letter?

It read:

x

Sasuke,

I know you probably don't remember me, but I think you should know I am the mother to your newborn child. Don't think I am pinning a baby that I don't know the father to on you, because I know she is yours. You took my virginity when Orochimaru brought you to the hideout I was in. And our daughter looks just like you, so you can't say she's not yours.

She was born only two weeks ago on October 18th.

I do not expect you to take responsibility because I could care less if you were here or not. As for our daughters last name I gave her mine.

Sincerely,

Kaeda Yokoyama.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow at this letter. That was that girl... That one time.

He was a father? He wouldn't believe anybody if they just wrote him a letter stating he was the father to their child just because they could have been after his money, or a reason to get him to marry her. But he knew Kaeda was not lying. For one he knew they didn't use protection. Which he knew was stupid, because now he was a father at sixteen.

But she didn't really care if he was there or not, which in Sasuke's mind meant she didn't really want him to be there. And their baby has her last name. If he had a child its last name would be Uchiha. Not Yokoyama. Tch, who does she think she is? If that baby has Uchiha blood then its las name should be Uchiha. At least she told him, because now Sasuke had a different perspective of what he was going to.

Kill Orochimaru was the first. Orochimaru would surely kill the child or keep it hostage or something crazy. Ok, first thing he would do, is kill Orochimaru. But he couldn't do it soon; he still had a lot to learn from him.

x

Aiko was five months old now. She had neck long black hair that seemed like it grew every day. She was sleeping in her crib while Kaeda sat at the edge of her bed thinking about what to say to her brother. She hadn't written to him in two weeks, which was very long. They always exchanged letters once or twice a week, but she had been busy taking care of Aiko, which Souta had wanted to meet so bad.

Suddenly a man teleported into her room, he wore a black cloak with red clouds on it. Akatsuki... Kaeda quickly jumped to her feet. A blunt force knocked her to the floor and she was knocked out completely.

The man, who was wearing an orange mask walked over to the crib and looked down at the child.

"So the child really is Sasuke's, eh?' Madara thought to himself as he hauled Kaeda over his shoulder and teleported away.

x

Mikoto's mother. Ha-ha or should I say Aiko's mother but W.E. :D Liiike?
