Returning in time
A/N: So I had this idea and told myself why not? I don't own Naruto by the way. I want to thank all those that: follow, fav and review. And a special thanks to Ahuvati for telling me that I was spelling Otouto bad.
Chapter 4: A talk with Kami-Sama.
Fugaku walked home after a boring session with the Sandiame Hokage and his stupid council members: the head of the Uchiha Clan hated those stupid mommies. He could understand why Minato had replaced most of them: they believed the Uchiha's a danger due their Dojutsu just because of that! Hell if they were dangerous do it: then all the families with a blood-line were a danger to their village.
Those old decrepit men had too much power and too much time, beside that idiot Sarutobi believed them…as if their heads weren't big enough. The session had practically meant for Sarutobi to apologize to him for accusing his Clan of the attack: the only good thing about the whole thing was the fact that Fugaku could see the sour looks of the council as the Hokage apologized in their name.
Fugaku still had problems accepting that they had accused his clan so easily just due a legend…. It wasn't as if the Clan had come out of the attack smelling like roses. He and his wife had both lost their best friends and he had lost his brother-in-law among other loses the Clan suffered. He now had three children awaiting for him home: well two… the Uchiha wondered if Sasuke was aware of what happened around him since the attack he seemed distant or off at least. If the chibi was older Fugaku would say that the baby looked depressed, but babies didn't get depressed so something else must be happening with his second.
As the head of the Clan entered his house he closed his eyes so that he could feel everyone's chakra: Shisui and Itachi's chakra signatures upstairs (probably studying) and Mikoto's and Chibi's in the living room. Fugaku allowed a small smile to grace his features: Sasuke's chakra was like a big burning sun, this often worried the man, but it also helped a lot with guessing the babies mood…. It seemed that he was asleep right now: his chakra was dancing calmly instead of burning upwards out of Sasuke's body as it had been doing the last days while the boy was awake. He decided to walk towards the living room.
"What was it that they wanted?" Asked Mikoto without looking up as he entered the room.
"They informed me that the Clan is no longer under suspicion and 'apologized'." Answered Fugaku sitting next to his wife, Mikoto didn't say anything: what was there to say? "How is Chibi doing?" Asked the man curious hopping that the answer would be different this time.
"The same." Said Mikoto looking him in the eyes.
"If he doesn't goes back to normal soon we'll take him to all medic-nins until they tell us what is wrong with him." Said Fugaku firmly, caressing his sons sleeping cheek. He missed the Chibi's adoring look and easy smile: the boy was like a balsam to his fathers' soul.
"Harumi came by earlier: she wanted to know how we were doing." Started to say Mikoto knowing that Fugaku wasn't a fan of the head of the Hyugaa Clan or the Clan, but the man was trustworthy and had stood by his (Fugaku's) Clan when they needed an outsider to vouch for them (after the thunders death that had seemed impossible) and his wife was a good woman with a kind heart.
"Hn." Was all that the brunette said, Mikoto took this as permission to continue.
"When I told her about Sasu-chan behavior she told me that Hinata had also been behaving strangely until a few days ago…. She believes that it has something to do with baby's and their ability to sense how those around them feel and their way to answering to change. And we both know that we have all been walking on glass since the attack and that things have changed in our household." Said Mikoto softly: it still pained her to think about all those they had lost... And poor Naruto was now an orphan that would be rejected by the villagers and most Clans due his status as Jinchuriki: Sarutobi hadn't even allowed them to adopt him or see him, the third had even taken away the only protection Naruto would have had: his father's last name. If the village knew that he was Minato and Kushina they would at least leave him alone.
"I hope she is right I truly do: we will wait another week, but after that we are going to the medics." Said Fugaku after a few moments of thinking about what he had been told by his wife. After his answer Mikoto kissed his cheek before handing a still sleeping Sasuke to him so that she could start dinner. "What are you dreaming about Chibi?" Asked Fugaku gently as he saw his son frowning in his sleep…
SASUKE'S DREAM:
Sasuke woke up again in between worlds in his old body (or was it more accurate to say future body?) and decided to sit down and wait for Kami-sama: he had failed to save Naruto's parents so he probably would have to be born….again. He had actually expected to see Kami-sama sooner, but the god must have other and more important things to do: than baby-sitting a useless Shinobi.
"Sasuke-kun." Greeted Kami as he appeared in front of Sasuke, the other didn't even react to his sudden appearance.
"Kami-sama." Answered Sasuke emotionless.
"I have been observing you since your re-birth and you have been doing really well, but I'm worried about you my child." Said Kami in a conversational tone: it wouldn't do him any good if Sasuke believed him to be disappointed with him.
"Why?" Asked the now teen.
"Because you have been distancing yourself from your loved ones: that is concerning. May I know why?" Prodded Kami gently.
"I failed you Kami-sama."
"How did you fail me Sasuke-kun?"
"I was unable to change Minato and Kushina's deaths: so Naruto will have to suffer the same childhood again…."
"You shouldn't blame yourself for their deaths: it was their destiny to die that day from the day they were born."
"But what about Naruto!?"
"Don't you worry about your friend: he will have a better childhood this time thanks to you and your family." Stated Kami.
"How? When?" Asked Sasuke.
"I can't tell you: that would be cheating, just rest assured that he will be happier this time around." Said the god.
"Fine." Answered Sasuke.
"So as a baby I'm sure that you have much time to meditate and think: have you already narrowed down who are those that are a danger to you and yours?" Asked Kami.
"For the whole Clan: isolation, Danzo and Obito/Tobi… for me: myself I guess?"
"Well if you believe so…" Said Kami before poking Sasuke's head to send him back.
END OF SASUKE'S DREAM.
Sasuke woke up with a jolt to see Itachi and Shisui looking at him with concern in their eyes. He knew that they were both worried about him ever since the whole Kyuubi incident that got him into his funk, just like his parents. He felt selfish for making them worry so much. Since a apology wouldn't work he decided to make it up to them.
Sasuke smiled brightly and made those silly sounds his family loved as he made grabbing motions with his chubby hands towards them. It was Shisui who picked him up from the floor.
"Kaa-san! Tou-san! Otouto is happy again!" Screamed Itachi on top of his lungs running towards their parents while Shisui chuckled.
"Welcome back Sasu-chan: you where missed." Whispered Shisui into his ear as he held him close.
