When Takeshi opened his eyes, it was dark outside. He felt around him, Nutae's presence was replaced by a letter. He unfolded the paper and read "I had a wonderful time with you this afternoon, I'm sorry I had to leave, I have family matters to attend to. I hope to see you soon my love." Takeshi sighed. "What have I done..." he thought to himself. He sat up and looked around. His room was empty, and he realized, he was lonely. He missed hearing his father Itachi and Kisame arguing about things that didn't even matter. "I wish I could see my father again…", he said to himself. Sighing, he stood up and walked to the shower. He turned on the water and got in. He closed his eyes, savoring the feeling of the water against his naked body. When he was finished, he got out and got dressed. He walked out the door and locked it, walking toward the training grounds. The night was fresh, calm, and the moon was very bright. At the training grounds, he saw someone training alone. "It is a little late, but mind if I train here as well?" Takeshi asked the stranger. When the stranger turned around to meet his eyes, he saw his father's eyes staring back at him. Takeshi was shocked and silent. "Who …are…you…?" Takeshi asked slowly. "My name is Uchiha Keikan. What is yours?" the stranger answered. Takeshi was so shocked, he almost fell over, "Who is your father?" he asked. "My father's name is Sasuke, why do you ask?" Keikan replied. Takeshi composed himself and answered, "I was just curious. The Uchiha is a very famous name." They both stared at each other for a moment more, and soon got to training, minding their own business. "Keikan, how many times do I have to tell you that you aren't allowed to go out at night? Your mother is being such a bother to me, so just come home," a man said walking up to them. "Yes father…oh, father, this is Takeshi, he seems to know the Uchihas," Keikan said. "You're Uchiha Sasuke?" Takeshi asked. The man looked at him, studying his features, choice of wardrobe, and his appearance. "Yes, I am Uchiha Sasuke, who are you?" Sasuke asked. "Oh, my name is Takyama Takeshi, sir…do you have a brother, or family member who is still alive?" Takeshi asked. Sasuke looked bothered by the question, and yet remained calm. "Not that I know of," he said coldly. He grabbed Keikan and they left. "That must be father's younger brother that Kisame told me about…", Takeshi said to himself as he walked home.
