Breakfast with the Uchiha's

As soon as Sakura and Itachi got to the Uchiha manor, the interrogation squad was there, but they got the same story Sakura had fed Itachi. 'She was just an innocent 6 year old named Suki from Suna, whose family was called back to Konoha. She had no clue what the Uchiha clan was and she couldn't remember what the vicious medical killer ninja look like, only that he was male'. Then Itachi tucked Sakura into bed in the guest bedroom they had available and said they would talk in the morning about her future.

However, Sakura had slept all day, and she was far from tired, so she thought now was the perfect time to sneak out and fake 'Sakura Haruno's' death. Seeing how she was now 'Suki Uchiha', she didn't want her parents to figure out the truth. She loved them so much, but couldn't risk the chaos that ensued in her world to happen here.

So she washed out the temporary black dye, and placed some pick hairs in a spot where it would be likely for her younger self to have been. Then she cut herself on her upper thigh to get some blood for the scene.

'A little blood and some pink hair and presto! a fake death scene'

Sakura then dyed her hair back to black with a more permanent dye and cropped it off into a cute short cut. Knowing that if she were to disguise herself with a jutsu Itachi would see right through it. Then she headed to her new home, the Uchiha Manor.

In the morning Sakura began to get dressed in her new Uchiha outfit that Itachi, oh so kindly, bought her in the market this morning. It pretty much look like her old genin outfit, except this dress was blue and had no sleeves, but it did have the signature high white collar of the Uchiha fashion, with the crest smack dab in the middle of the back and cute white boots!

That was a pretty kind thing for Itachi to do, so out of character and yet not really right… Sakura walked over to the dress that was laid out on the bed and touched it gently with the tips of her fingers. So smooth, so soft, it must be silk.

Sakura couldn't believe she wasreally going through with this. She was totally taking her sweet time getting ready. Sakura was feeling a little hesitant to head downstairs and join the head Uchiha family for breakfast. Ok maybe it was more of a nervous feeling towards the boys of the family.

The short encounter she had with Itachi left her with mixed emotions. She has already been programmed to fear him from her old past, but now in this new time its…well different. He still is the same lethal ninja only this time he's on her side. It was confusing. How can you be so terrified of someone and yet not?

Then there was Sasuke… yeah, so not even going to go there.

By now Sakura had finished getting dressed. She was ready to face the First Uchiha family…not really, but she was getting pretty hungry. With one last deep breath, Sakura made her way downstairs.

"Hello Suki, so nice to meet you." Mikoto Uchia said sounding genuinely pleased to see her.

Fugaku Uchiha, was reading the newspaper and sat at the head of the table. Right across from him sat Itachi. Mikoto Uchiha was seated to the right of her husband. That left Sasuke to sit right across from his mother. Leaving the four seater table full. If Sakura joined them it would break the balance. Nevertheless the kind family had made a spot for her, positioned to the left of Sasuke. Which coincidently put Sakura smack dab in between the Uchiha boys; not exactly where she wanted to be.

"Please come join us" Mikoto said bringing Sakura back from her inner dialog.

The Uchiha family's eyes all followed her movements closely. Their gazes made her feel uneasy. She was confused as to why everyone was staring so intently at her.

"h-Hai" little Sakura said, breaking their staring session. The family all went back to their regular routine, as best they could. She sat down in her prepared seat, and grabbed a bowl.

"We're having breakfast bowls today, you can put anything you like in them, scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, cheese, ham, peppers, Anything" Mikoto said smiling at Sakura.

"Hai," Sakura replies and smiles back.

She felt Itachi's and Sasuke's eyes back on her, and did her best to ignored them. She proceeded to fill her bowl up with the breakfast nummies prepared by their mother.

Then one of them couldn't stay quiet any longer. Surprise, surprise it was Sasuke.

"I'm Sasuke. Are you going to be part of the family?" he innocently asked

Sakura's eyes widened at the thought. "Um…" She didn't know what to say to that. Fugaku cleared his throat obviously to get the attention of the table because he was about to say something.

"Suki, my son has filled us in on your situation, so we had a talk as a family this morning and have decided to ask if you would like to live us?" Fugaku said in a matter of fact manner.

Sakura was certain Itachi had told him about her already activated the sharingan. She imagined having another Uchiha genius in the family would be a welcome, and something they could brag about. On the upside she recognized she would be able to be close to her family and friends. Maybe not as Sakura, but still she never even dreamed she would have an opportunity like this.

"Only on one condition" Sakura replied trying to play a no nonsense little girl.

Fugaku thought she was cute trying to act all grown up, he had absolutely no suspicions about this girl, only possibilities of making the Uchiha clan even greater.

"Alright, what is your condition Suki?" Fugaku said trying to humor her.

"I want to be able to visit Suna, so that I can still see my friends over there" Sakura said using her childlike charm.

This caught Fugaku off, guard. However he understood Suki's longing for something familiar in her life. The accompaniment of friends can help a person go a long way.

"Alright, then we have an agreement you are allowed to go to Suna every now and then to see your friends and in exchange you will live here and make this your home" Fugaku said, following up with his thought to use her to help the Uchiha become an even more formidable clan.

He then shook her hand as though they were two adults who had just made a business arrangement.

During this whole time neither of the boys had taken their eyes off Sakura. Sasuke seem to stare out of curiosity, but Itachi's stare was more of an observation of Sakura. Both stares had major effects on Sakura, and both started to get to her.

"Who are your friends that you're going to go see Suki?" Sasuke asked

She felt weird talking to a six year old Sasuke. She was so used to seeing him being the brooding and somber.

"His name is Sabaku-no-Gaara" Sakura confessed in a small voice.

Everyone except Sasuke was stunned.

"Oh who's that?" little Sasuke gave her the cutest pondering look and he inquired further.

"Um…" She didn't know how to explain Gaara to Sasuke. She directed her gaze away from Sasuke and to the other members of the table. Although they all had intense gazes, none concerned her more than Itachi's virulent one.

"He's the son of the Fourth Kazekage" Itachi replied in a knowing voice. Sakura could tell he was already well informed that Gaara wielded the One-tailed Shukaku.

"Oh cool! Can I meet him too?" Sasuke asked excitedly.

"Another time Sasuke" Itachi's voice had a hint of amusement; he smiled to himself when he saw Sasuke's pout at his common phrase."Grab your pack it's time for school."

Sasuke ran to the door giddly, because his brother was walking him to school. He put on his shoes and picked up his back pack.

"Suki, we've bought you a backpack and some supplies as well." He didn't bother with his demand for her to go and put them on.

"Hai" She happily stood up and bowed her head respectfully to Fugaku and Mikoto as she excused herself from the kitchen table. Hurrying she copied Sasuke; going to the door to getting ready for school. She couldn't wait to see Naruto.

Itachi walked up to the door, put on his shoes, and walked out of the manor. He naturally assumed Suki and Sasuke would automatically follow and they did.

During the walk to school Sakura repeatedly looked at Itachi, and was careful to avoid looking at Sasuke. This time Itachi was looking straight ahead at what seemed to be nothing, while Sasuke, who was holding his brother's hand, was shooting Sakura darted glances every now and then.

But none of them really spoke much the entire way except for Sasuke, who would ask a random question every now and then "Nii-san will you train with me today afterschool?" In which Itachi would reply with "we'll see Sasuke."

At their arrival to the Academy Sasuke ran off into the building; bidding his brother goodbye, while Sakura followed right behind into class.

Itachi went over to the teacher to explain that Suki was now under their care and would be attending ninja classes with Sasuke. He also told the teacher that Suki has already activated the Sharingan and not to be alarmed by it.

The teacher made some small talk about the abrupt deaths of the elders and one of his students (Sakura Haruno) in his class and something about how he hopes the perpetrator is caught soon.

Anyway, Sakura could care less, she was just happy she was able to pull it off.

Inside the classroom Sakura glanced around to look for Naruto. She foundIno, Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, and Shino, before finding the person of her eye's quest Naruto.

He was sitting smack dab in the middle, but Sakura noticed no one would sit beside him. It seems that the village's isolation treatment is even going on here. Sakura's heart was pounding like crazy, it's been a long time since she's seen Naruto, but she somehow mustered the courage to approach him.

"Hi I'm new here, my name is Suki what's your name?" Sakura asked Naruto, her voice was trying to hide the longing and extreme happiness at seeing him.

Naruto appeared shocked that anyone would even approach him, let alone a pretty girl. Not as pretty as his Sakura-chan; who he hadn't seen come in. Strange though he found her eyes to be the same green as Sakura's; causing him to blush and looked down from a brief moment of bashfulness.

"Hey Suki! I'm Naruto!" He said in that loud voice of his. "Why dontcha sit next to me?"

"K," Sakura said in a pleased voice "Let's be friends!" She said trying to copy how a child would act.

"Yeah!" Naruto yelled. He couldn't believe he finally had a friend. He's been so lonely for a long time.

Sakura was going to see to it that Naruto wasn't going to be alone this time; not him or Gaara.

Author's end note: So if you guys want to go see what the outfit Sakura has semi looks like And what the seating arrangements look like, head on over to my profile. I have link some pics that I think are similar to what I had in mind. Man I'm kinda craving a breakfast bowl right about now…
