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. I want to dedicate this chapter to my followers!
Chapter 5: First words.
It had been sometime since everything had returned to 'normal' well normal for the Uchiha house hold at least. This kind of normal would have freaked many out: it even freaked Sasuke out a little, just a little because he was getting used to it. Sasuke was happy to say that he had reached an age where he was able to eat solid like food.
The little one was now awake for almost the whole day and would have been a very unhappy and grumpy child if he would have to look at the ceiling the whole day: due this Sasuke had started to crawl early…..well the ceiling wasn't the whole reason for him speeding that up. He blamed his family minus his father for it, as soon as he reached a determined age the terrible tree had started to become very interested in becoming his first word or to get him to say something. So Sasuke had decided that crawling became a need to escape from those three.
Sadly right now the terrible three had united forces (they did so whenever they could) and had him cornered in the dining room: they had been smart and covered the exits. Without any other choice Sasuke sat up looking at them, each one of them looked at him with a maniac-like grin, and every time he made the slightest move to escape one of them put him back in the middle. The youngest Uchiha sat there with a pout on his face. Damn these three! I will need to walk or at last toddle…but I need a nice distraction to get some air. They are suffocating me! Thought Sasuke to himself while the terrible three continued their assault.
"Come Otouto say Aniki: A-ni-ki." This was Itachi who said the word Aniki slowly as if Sasuke was dump while he looked at the little, not even a toddler yet, black-blue haired baby boy.
"No Sasu-chan: Kaa-san. Come on you can do it I know you can say: Kaa-san." Anyone can guess who this one was. Mother I can say that word I simply refuse to do so because, well just because. Sasuke just looked Mikoto in the eye.
"Nah…. He is a smart boy so he will say my name first! And the both of you know it." Declared Shisui sure of himself. "Come Sasu-chan say: Shisui. I'm the most awesome cousin ever…" Said his cousin while he pulled faces causing Sasuke to laugh.
You're really full of yourself Shisui, but you're also terribly easy to love: so I forgive you. I'm so not saying anything the three of you want as my first word. But you may keep trying….
His family kept pestering him to talk until his father came home: not that the other four that lived at the manor where aware. The terrible three were pestering Sasuke and the last one was getting frustrated at his failed attempts to escape them.
"The three of you should feel ashamed: Chibi shall talk when he is ready." Stated Fugaku leaning against the doorframe while he shook his head: everyone turned to look at him and saw that he was still wearing his ninja/work clothes.
Sasuke grinned evilly as he looked how his tormentors blushed. You three want me to talk don't you? Sasuke used their distraction to stand on his unsteady legs and to toddle up to his father with what seemed to be a happy expression. The kunai Fugaku had been playing with fell on the floor due the shock of seeing his youngest take his first steps and as any responsible adult he kicked the Kunai into the hall. Soon Sasuke was close to his father and lost his fragile balance: his father had quick reflexes that saved Sasuke from meeting the floor. Thank you! Was all Sasuke could think off as he snuggled closer to his fathers chest.
"Missed me Chibi?" Asked Fugaku calmly as if his son hadn't taken his first steps, or as if Mikoto, Itachi and Shisui weren't recovering from it, while he tickled Sasuke's tummy.
"Tou-sama!" Squealed Sasuke in delight due this Fugaku almost dropped him….and wouldn't THAT bring him trouble with Mikoto.
"What did you say Chibi?" Asked the chief of Konoha's military police afraid that he had heard well: this couldn't be happening to him! Mikoto would castrate him and he hadn't even taught their son any word…well not that he could remember.
"Tou-sama." Answered Sasuke patting his father's chest as if he were showing his father that he meant him.
"Hn." Said Fugaku while he prayed to Kami. Thought so: why did you say that Chibi why? Now your mother is gone kill me. Oooh well I'm happy to have met you and to have been your first word.
"Fugaku!" Roared Mikoto, Shisui and Itachi were smart and ducked under the low table, and her husband did his best to hold Sasuke between them: no the Clans head wasn't using his youngest as a human shield against him wife.
"Yes dear?"
"I thought that you didn't believe in pushing Sasu-chan to talk!" Exclaimed Mikoto.
"Hn." Came from Fugaku as he nodded.
"How comes then that you were his first word?" Asked Mikoto in false sweetness… Suddenly Sasuke realized that his plan mightn't have been as smart as he thought it to be.
"Maybe bec-…."
"Kunai!" Exclaimed Sasuke happily pointing at the forgotten kunai that now lay in the hall, as if he was aware that his father would dig himself in a deeper hole: which he was.
"Very good Chibi!" Praised Fugaku. "But it's no toy…. Well not one you can use for a few years at least." The last part was mumbled by the proud man in the hope that his wife didn't hear him.
"Fugaku! When did you teach him those words?" Asked Mikoto losing all her sweetness.
"I didn't!" Exclaimed Fugaku nearing hysterics.
"I believe Tou-san Kaa-san. Tou-san wouldn't have the time or patience." Said Itachi calming his mother down while both Sasuke and Shisui were unsure if Itachi was very brave or suicidal.
"You are right 'tachi, but I wonder where he learned them?" Wondered Mikoto aloud, Fugaku wasn't sure if he should feel grateful or insulted by Itachi's intervention.
"Aniki!" Exclaimed Sasuke pointing at Itachi because his brother had saved him in his past life and because he had been idiotically brave.
"Kaa-san! He called me Aniki." Said Itachi excited.
"I heard him sweety." Answered Mikoto.
"Kaa-sama!" Sasuke decided to point towards his mother next.
"Yes that's me SASU-CHAN!" Sang Mikoto happily as she plucked him from his fathers arms.
"Great I'm the most awesome cousin ever and he doesn't even say my name!" Huffed Shisui while Fugaku wondered when his household had turned into a circus.
"Shi-niii!" Said Sasuke smirking towards his cousin, this caused everyone to laugh…. Well aside from Shisui who did spend a great amount of time that evening trying to convince Sasuke to call him either: Shisui or Nii-san not the abomination the youngest had invented.
The next day Sasuke had his first toy kunai much to Mikoto's surprise: she suspected her husband, but Fugaku had been just as surprised to see Sasuke with it as she was. It had actually been a gift from Itachi who was happy to see Shisui suffer from once instead of getting pranked by him.
