Now, on with the story:

"But, Fugaku!"

"I said, get rid of it!"

"But"

"Get rid of it!"

"O-okay," Mikoto said, sobbing quietly. Sasuke had just been born three months before, and she was pregnant again. But, this time, it was a girl, and Fugaku was having none of that! He didn't want another child, let alone a girl. He had plans for the future, to take over Konoha, in the name of Uchiha. A girl would only get in his way. So, when the baby was born, Mikoto was to 'get rid of it.' She couldn't kill it, so she was going to take it... her to a good home. Now she was sobbing once more in her room. She wanted this baby, but since she could not keep her Mikoto would make sure she had a good home. Mikoto sucked it up and dried her tears. She went to the kitchen and made Itachi a lunch. He came in and watched his mother carefully. She seemed different, but he couldn't put his finger on it. He decided that she'd changed her hair; instead of it being down she had it in a low pony-tail. Of course, Mikoto had done this to throw him off. She had noticed that for a six year old, the boy was very perceptive. She kissed his forehead and he headed to the academy.

Six months and thirteen days later...

Mikoto was screaming, in pain. She was in labor, and boy did it hurt. Itachi was out with Fugaku, and the maids were helping her. Fugaku had forbid the delivery to be in the hospital, he wanted as little people as possible to know of this. Finally, the baby was born! The maid carefully cut the umbilical cord and quickly clamped it, stopping the blood from spilling out. She took the baby and began to wash it off. Once clean, the baby was given to Mikoto. She took one look at the beautiful girl in her arms, and bawled. This was her baby, and Mikoto wanted her with all her heart. She didn't want to give her up! But...she had to. She set a determined look and handed the baby to the maid, who placed her in an old crib of Sasuke's. The baby had not cried when it was born. In fact the whole pregnancy was odd as well. Instead of growing fat, Mikoto had lost weight. This helped when she was five months along. Itachi was not to know of his baby sister, and of course not having a huge tummy helped. She never experienced morning sickness, and the little girl hardly ever kicked. The only real difference was that she had to pee a bit more often than usual.

A week later...

The baby had been successfully hidden from Itachi until Mikoto was allowed to leave her bed. She took the 7 pound 6.6 ounce baby in her arms and ran out of the village. She ran all the way to the Hidden Rock Village, where she found a nice woman painting. The woman was obviously a kunoichi by her clothes... "Painting must be a hobby." Mikoto thought. She left the baby outside the door, masking her chakra. She knocked on the door after leaving a note and sped off, to watch from far away. The woman came out and saw the baby. She immediately picked her up and opened the letter with one hand.

Dear Miss,

I have left my child in your care. Her name is Sayomi. I wish I could keep her, I very much wish that, but sadly, it is not meant to be.

Please, all I want you to tell her is that I loved her very much. That is all I ask. I will explain her origin... but please, do not track me down.

She is of the Uchiha Clan, and has two brothers.

I have been forbidden to keep her. Please understand and respect my reasoning. I have left a scroll with our clan Justus on it for her to learn...

Arigato,

M. Uchiha.

Mikoto watched the woman take her baby inside and then turned and ran back towards Konoha, fighting back tears the whole way.

Five years later...

"Thank you, Okaa-san!" said the little girl.

"You are very welcome," the Jonin said, poking the tip of the little girl's nose. "You are getting quite good." The small, raven haired girl smiled. "Sayomi... I have something I want to tell you." Now, Mayami had a sad look in her eye.

"OK!"

"I'm... I'm not your... your... your Okaa-san." she finally forced out. Sayomi looked at her as if she was crazy.

"Yes you are."

"I may have raised you, but I am not your biological mother."

"Biological?"

"It means the person who gave birth to you, which I am not that person."

"But... then where is my Okaa-san?"

"She left you with me... because... well, I'll show you." she pulled a crumpled, old letter out of her pocket and handed it to the small girl.

She read the letter and a single tear hit the page. "But... but why was she forbidden to keep me?" Sayomi asked her 'Okaa-san.'

"I don't know sweetie." she said. "Oh... I forgot to give you your present..." She held out a ring. It was silver and was shaped into a swirl. Engraved on the inside it said, "What goes around comes around."

"It means Karma..." Sayomi smiled, loving the present and put it on her thumb. "It's a little big, but you'll grow into it."

Two years later...

Sayomi sat, crying in her room...

Her 'Okaa-san' had just been killed on a mission.

Eight years later...

She ran down the path, finally near the gates of Konoha. She had wanted to go here ever since she found out that the Uchiha, her family, were here. Her 'Okaa-san' had told her of the massacre of her family just before she set out on the mission she'd never come back from. Now, there were only two left of the clan... both happened to be her brothers. She hoped that they were in the village. She walked through the gates and stopped when she heard a guard say, "Hey! You!" She turned to see him run up to her. "State your name and purpose."

"It's impolite to ask of someone's name before giving your own." She said.

"I am Kotetsu. Now, you are?"

"Sayomi. I am here to seek residence and would like to speak with your Hokage."

"Yes. I will lead you to her." Then they began walking. Soon they reached the tower, having not said a word. They climbed the stairs and walked down the hall till they reached a set of oak double-doors. Kotetsu knocked and a loud 'enter' was heard. Kotetsu walked in and bowed, Sayomi in toe. They rose from their bowing positions and the Fifth nearly had a heart attack at what she saw. The young girl with Kotetsu looked a lot like Makoto Uchiha. She smiled the very same smile as well. Tsunade nodded and Kotetsu left with out a word.

"What is your name, child?" Tsunade asked.

"Sayomi...Uchiha." Tsunade gasped, audibly. "That's not possible!" She thought.

That was when Sayomi reached into her shuriken pouch. The ANBU that were with Tsunade almost all the time acted quickly. They had her hands behind her back, on her knees. She looked back and what happened next, no one predicted would happen. She twisted her hand and grabbed the ANBU, holding her wrists, wrist and flipped him onto the floor. Then as the ANBU moved to protect the Hokage, she bowed, on one knee, to her.

"I apologize, Hokage-sama. I was merely getting a letter that would explain my namesake." Tsunade nodded and she pulled out the very letter she had mentioned. She carefully handed the old paper to the Hokage, who read it over quickly, eyes wide.

"I see..." she said, after calming down."It seems Fugaku thought a daughter would only be a burden..." Tsunade looked deep in thought when Sayomi interrupted.

"It said I had two brothers... I was wondering, if they were... here?" Tsunade suddenly looked sullen.

"I am afraid not, my dear." By this time the ANBU were no longer in sight. "I'm afraid your brother, Itachi, is responsible for the annihilation of the entire Uchiha clan... Except for you and your other brother, Sasuke, whom of which, is with Orochimaru, bent on getting revenge on Itachi." Sayomi felt like crying. Her head dropped and a single tear slid down her cheek and onto the carpet. She had been looking forward to seeing her brothers, but now, it seemed as though they were both bad news. It was pretty disappointing, but she hadn't come all this way for nothing…

"I would still like to live here."

"OK, I see no reason why you can not... would you like to stay in the Uchiha manor?" Tsunade asked politely. Sayomi nodded; at least she could see what her family's home was like. Tsunade threw her a key and map. "I will call in a team that you will work with. I want to see your skills. Come back in an hour, they should be here by then."

"Yes, ma'am!" Sayomi said and ran out the door. She looked at the map and quickly found the Uchiha manor. A little apprehensive about seeing the home she never knew, Sayomi decided to only take a quick self-given tour. She walked through for ten minutes and decided to go shopping. She bought more shuriken and stopped at a ramen shop to get some lunch. She saw a blond boy and a pink haired girl at the bar. She sat a few seats down and ordered a miso ramen with bamboo shoots. After ten minutes her food arrived and she ate quickly. Soon it was time to go, and she noticed the other ninja had left; she paid, and set off for the Hokage tower. She knocked and heard 'enter.' She walked in, and caught the stares from her new team. There, again, was the blond and pinkette from the ramen shop. They stared at her and all gasped when they heard Tsunade.

"This is Sayomi Uchiha... your new teammate."

Hope you liked it... It was a random idea I had while listening to A Perfect Circle's '3 Libras.' XD I could use constructive criticism. PLEASE REVIEW!!! Reviews are HIGHLY appreciated!

I changed a few things so the story would actually have logic. I'd like to thank DarkSacredJewelXoX for giving me tips and telling me what was wrong in this chapter.
