Chapter 5: The plan setting into motion
Just the day after my birthday I began to write into the scroll.
´Hopefully she can contain everything´
´I will only write the main event there up from Orochimaru´s betrayal till the middle of the fourth Ninja war everything else comes into the textbooks. I will write in them the profile of every enemy and their history, jutsus everything I know.´
´Why till the middle of the war?´
´Somehow want to tell them that Shikaku and Inoichi will die along with many others´
´You know this will be a lot of paper we will produce...how will we hide that from our parents?´
´I will ask them for a storage scroll´
´Good idea´
I only wrote the beginning down where I explained that I was some unknow priestess in a no name village who saw the past alongside the future and wrote the first part from Orochimaru´s betrayal and the beginning plot of the Uchiha massacre when I stood up and went to my father in his office.
"Nee dad I want to store my box safely away in a storage scroll is that ok?"
"Why do you need a storage scroll for that?"
"When a thief comes in he won't see the box but a scroll and would surely not take that with him."
"Ey don´t forget your dad is a ninja there will be no thief that I can´t catch in my house"
´He has a point´
"Just to make sure dad …..you are not always here you are also on missions"
"True little one but under one condition"
"Which?"
"A storage scroll is easy to use you just put some chakra into the seal and it is done. You said you want into the ninja academy, when you can use the scroll I will think about that"
"Ok" I accepted his challenge.
"I will show you how it is done" He did one handsign and then put his hand down to the seal and the book was stored away.
"You use the same handsign to unseal it, did you remember it?"
I nodded with a concentrating look on my face.
´Do we know how to activate our chakra?´
´Meditating´
"So here is an empty storage scroll try to seal this book into it, when you can do it show it to me and I will give you the scroll and will talk with your mother about the ninja academy"
"Hai" I took the scroll and the blank book and went into my room.
Unrolling the scroll, I laid the book in the mid of the seal and began meditating in search for my Chakra.
´Did you find it?´
´No...´
´This is maybe harder than we thought´
´Can´t be helped. I will try it every day till I find it´
One month later (Dezember, but there isn´t any snow yet)
I finished my scroll and data about the future for the Hokage all what is left was to seal them into the storage scroll.
Of the constant writing these scrolls and trying to seal a book into a storage scroll I saw my friends seldom I even missed it to visit Shikamaru on Sundays but I was determined to get this done and promised silently to make up for the lost time.
I sat in the living room meditating again to find my chakra.
Then I felt something a flicker of energy.
´There that is it!´
It was a really strange feeling this chakra it felt warm and cold at the same time.
´Concentrate pull it to our handsign´
It was so slick and when I got a hold of it, it was really slow to get into my handsign but I was patience. When I did it I feel it chanced slightly when it reached my hands they began to tingle with energy.
´Quick´
I put my hand down on the scroll and the trademark "poff" was heard and the white smoke came up.
"Yes I did it!" I smiled widely and hurried up in the office of my father.
"Dad, dad I did it"
"Show me"
I put the scroll down and began to mediate again, this time it was a bit easier to find my Chakra but it took it´s time again to pull into my hands but I did it and unsealed the book.
Father looked a moment with a blank look at me.
´He didn´t expect that´
´I hope he hold up to his promise´
"So I need to talk with your mother, take the storage scroll and go to bed it is late" he usher me out.
´No praise? No smile? No laughter? Something is strange about that´
´I think he really don´t want me to become a ninja´
I went into my room and straight under my bed to pull my scrolls and textbook forth to seal them in the scroll.
´How will you explain the loos of the scroll´
´I won´t´
´?´
´I will buy one that looks the same´
´Oh...why didn´t you do in the first place?´
´Won´t it be strange for them to find a storage scroll in my room without giving me one?´
´Oh...true mother tidies up sometimes our room´
I put the storage scroll in my box and went to the bathroom stealing for a short moment the perfume from mother and sprayed on the scroll.
´Tomorrow we will get that somehow in the Nara forest´
´I hope everything goes smoothly´
Next day after breakfast
"Mom I will go visit Shika today"
"Ok Yuuki-chan but be back when the sun sets alright?"
"Hai" I shouted from the door and went outside.
´So Step one, get a messenger´
´A dog would be best´
´A stray one best a young one who will be interest into the deer's´
´How do we catch one?´
´With a bit meat, I got a little bit out of the refrigerator´
´Clever´
I went to the market place where mother once lost me.
´Near a marked are a lot of animals we just need to look into the alleys here´
I searched for two hours in the narrow dark streets until I found the perfect one.
He was all black and was the perfect size not too big and not small but fast.
I put my backpack down and got a bit of the meat out and a leash...na ok it was more a simple rope with a simple knot but it will do the job.
I hold the meat out to the dog who went straight to me.
´A former pet and not long on the street it seems he is too trusting for be here longer than a few weeks´
´Poor thing but can´t be helped just hope that the Naras will take him to a better place´
He came to me and took the meat and licked my hand clean while I put the rope on him.
I got my bag and took a little bit of meat again.
"Come" I said and lure him into coming with me.
Every few streets a gave him a little bit just for good measure.
I know the way to the Nara forest but this time I need to go around the Nara district through the dark alleys to be unseen.
´Careful don´t get to near the deer´s should better not see you´
I stopped near the Nara forest and the dog already hold his nose in the air smelling the foreign smell of the forest and his animals, I put a hand in his neck holding him back.
"Wait just a moment little one"
I pulled out my bag the storage scroll and with the rope bound it on his bag.
"Now you can go"
I throw the last piece of my meat into the green bushes and the dog went straight after it.
´From here one we can only hope´
´I better go now to Shikamaru I think he is on his usual hill´
And so I went tracking to Shika with the last thing in my bag, the portable shogi board, happy to see him.
I reached his hill seeing him lay there dozing in the sun.
´He looks so sweet sleeping´
"Shi-ka-ma-ru" I said directly by his ear. He shot up with too much energy and tumbled the hill down all the while cursing.
"Yuuki!" He scolded me with a light frown. I could only continue to laugh.
"Troublesome"
"You know you like me" I smiled and set the shogi board up while he came back up the hill.
"Only when you win"
I pouted and it was now his turn to laugh at me.
3rd POV
"Nara-sama a stray dog got into our forest making trouble" one of the forest guards reported to Shikaku.
"A dog? You come to me because of a dog? You know how to handle them catch them and bring them to the Inuzuka´s"
"A scroll is attached to it"
"A scroll?"
"Hai!"
"Catch the dog and bring the scroll to me"
It didn´t take long to catch the poor dog scanning the scroll for explosive and bringing it straight to Shikaku.
"Hmmm a storage scroll"
"Be careful Dear"
"Troublesome" he unsealed the scroll and got a good package of textbooks on the top a single scroll.
"Interesting" Shikaku mumbled and opened the scroll beginning to read.
´I knew you would get this Scroll first Shikaku Nara you better clear you mind for that what I have to tell. I know that you will soon bring this information straight to the Hokage and exactly that is my hope. My name is Ayaka I´m from a little shrine in the fire country you better don´t start to search for me I will be dead by now. I used a jutsu to see in the future but it will take every time a bit of my live force but my death will be small thing when I can prevent that what will come so listen closely to what I have to tell-´
With each word he read Shikaku eyes widened he read only half of the scroll when he packed everything back into the seal and hurried to the door.
"Yoshino don´t expect me back for dinner or even breakfast this can take really long, take care of Shikamaru"
"Where do you go?"
"To the Hokage"
"Nara-sama the Hokage is in a meeting you can´t-"
He just busted into the Hokage office.
Itachi was there with three other jonins coming back from a mission seeing their dirty appearance.
"I hope you have a good reason to rush in here, it is not like you to do so Shikaku"
"You need to read this"
He holds up the scroll
"And what is that?"
"Only both of us without other ears and eyes"
"Hmmm...everyone out"
Hiruzen soundproofed the room and then but the jalousies down the windows behind him. Shikaku turned on the light and passed the scroll over and waited.
Hiruzen unsealed the scroll and began to read the new one that appeared along with text books.
The only sound was the pipe that fell out of his mouth to the ground.
It took from there only a little time to read everything else...on the end was a rather interesting proposition.
´Take Itachi Uchiha into training to be the future Hokage or Head of ANBU´
"Did you read all?"
"No"
"Read the rest I will take a look on this textbooks" he picked up his pipe some textbooks and began to smoke again while reading before his window.
"This-"
"I know"
"The textbooks?"
"Not yet, I want to have Ibiki, Kakashi and every clan head, and yes even Fugaku, here in my office"
"Hai" Shikaku went out the office giving the order to the ANBU´s outside.
"They will be here shortly, what about the elders?"
"When it is true what stands in there they won´t change their path they are more on Danzo´s side it hurts me but it seems I must take some action and you all must help me with that."
It wasn´t long after the clan head's, Ibiki and Kakashi arrived, Shikaku told the guards to get some chairs and a big table.
"Hokage what is the meaning of this?" Fugaku demanded to know.
"All in due time" The table and chairs were bought in and Shikaku closed and sealed the doors behind the guards.
"Please take a seat this will take a long time"
They all murmured but sat down Shikaku directly beside the Hokage.
"First of all, whatever you will hear now will not leave this room the consequent of that will be more than we can image now report Shikaku what you found here"
"Hai. This morning a guard of or forest came to me reporting about a dog with a scroll... this scroll here" He hold it up.
"I examined the scroll and found it was a storage one so I unsealed it and found a stack of textbooks with a second scroll on it. Reading that what stand in there I went straight to the Hokage who also read the scroll and sent for you."
"What is so important of a scroll and a few textbooks that you called for all of us?" Asked the clan head from the Hyuga´s Hiashi.
Shikaku unsealed the storage scroll and took the other one.
"In this Scroll...stands our future"
"A bit far-fetched" Shibi from the Aburame said.
"I thought on the beginning of this scroll too but the information in there...they have a strong sense of truth in them but whoever wrote this foresaw our hesitation to believe so he or she also wrote these textbooks. Ibiki, Inoich I want you to read them and tell me if whatever stands there is as true as I think it is."
Both took some textbooks and began to read they eyes began to wide and they hasty looked at the other ones just to have their yaw dropping with each textbook more until Ibiki reached for the textbook with Itachi´s and Obitio´s information.
"Wait with that one"
"Why?"
"He plays a big roll and to understand that Shikaku will read a part from the scroll, but tell me first what you think of this textbooks"
"I don´t know how to say it they are more than accurate...and whoever wrote this didn´t take the normal way of intel gathering some of this information were either sealed away or every person to witness something of that was killed...He or she foretold our future right? How could she then look into the past?" Inoichi asked
"It was a woman with a special jutsu so she writes, it was possible for her."
"It was?" Chouza asked
"Shikaku"
"Hai" Shikaku read the first part the introduction of the writer.
"Sounds plausible" Ibiki said
"But we have no actual proof of such a jutsu"
"Shikaku read until the end of THAT part and I think Fugaku should listen closely to this"
Shikaku began reading about Orochimaru´s betrayal first, there were not many surprised with that, and then began to read about the Uchiha massacre. All the while Shikaku read about the Uchihas Fugaku grew paler and paler.
Hiruzen then took the file with Itachi´s and Obito´s Information.
"I will tell you know Fugaku what will become of this two sons of yours"
He read this heart wrenching story of how Sasuke seeks revenge, killing his only left relative just to hear that his brother just tried to protect him and loved him. Actually it goes on from there because of Kabutos Edo Tensei but Hiruzen left that out.
Fugaku burrowed his head in his hands.
Pale as a ghost he looks up into Hiruzens eyes his eyes hoping he tells him that he just joked or something like that, but deep down he knew that this outcome was a realistic one.
In this file is also the information about the real culprit about the Kyuubi attack which Hiruzen also explained.
"Who!?" All asked
"Obito Uchiha"
"That is hopefully a joke Hokage-sama" came from Kakashi who now has an ice cold look in his eyes.
"This Akiko said a true thing here, his body was never found but when nobody believe that he lives she says that you should seek to encounter him and see for yourself what his sharigan can do. You would see that is it the same ability like yours and Fugaku can confirm that only one pair of eyes can have a unique technique."
"Hai" came a faint answer from Fugaku.
"So we were right to think that the Uchiha´s could use their eyes to control the Kyuubi"
"Stop with that, this will lead only to a lot of blood shed we must think here of a solution to protect our village along with the Uchihas they are part of this village, too"
"Why?"
"Shikaku read the rest please" Hiruzen sighted
"And please don´t interrupt until he is done reading"
"The village..."
"Can we really believe that?"
"A fourth war..."
They whispered under each other when Shikaku ended.
"Silence"
They quiet down one after another.
"We must think of our moves now. We can´t let the massacre of the Uchihas happen and also we can´t let it happen that Pain destroys our village and also capture the majority of the tailed beasts to start a war. This person who gave us this information hoped the best for the village with ALL it´s clans, including the Uchihas, she proposed to me to take Itachi under my wings to make him whether the next Hokage or the head of ANBU."
Fugaku was silent shocked about a stranger putting trust in his eldest son, in his clan.
"Fugaku I think we both will have a talk after this"
And so they looked themselves up in the Hokage office for days only with short breaks from making plans and discussing their new path.
3rd POV End
"Nee kaa-san where is father?" Asked Shikamaru when we both came back from his hill as the sun began to set.
"He went to the Hokage and said that he didn´t know when he will come back"
"What a drag"
´That was fast´
´I´m just glad that our plan worked somehow...normally it doesn´t´
´Everything is now in their hands´
´We should visit Itachi and Sasuke in the next days´
´Sounds good´
"Ne Shika I will come again on Sunday oky?"
"….." He gave me a blank look.
"I´m really sorry that I missed the last few times, I was training"
"Whatever"
"Shika..." I looked at him my sad apologising eyes
"Hmpf" he huffed and came to me taking my hand and squeezed it light.
" It is ok I will see you on Sunday alright?"
"Shika!" I hugged him.
"You really are the best" I said as a good bye and ran home.
Next day lunchtime
"Huh father why are you here, don´t you have a briefing with the Hokage?"
"Yes darling what happened?"
"The Hokage has looked himself up in his office with the clan heads and two trusted shinobis nobody knows what is going on but no one is let in and they won´t talk when someone leaves to get something to eat and drink."
"That sounds like something terrible happened"
"Nobody knows"
"Mom is it alright when I visit Sasuke and Itachi ?"
"Sure I think Mikoto would be happy to see you again"
´Oh I´m sure she would be so happy to have her dressing doll back´
´She is not that bad´
´She isn´t...but the dresses...´
´Ah...yes´
So I was on my way to Uchiha main house the guards let me through, they got already used to us Hanaka´s visiting random the main family and they also know that Mikoto just loved me.
´It can really come in handy to be liked by a matriarch, sometimes I think the people are more afraid of her then of Fukaku´
´Hehehe´
I knocked on the door and waited.
Sasuke opened the door ready to greet his father with a proud look on his face but it fell when he saw me.
"Oh It is just you"
"Just? You hurt my feelings Sasuke"
"Hn" he turned and let me in.
"Who is it Sasuke?" Asked Mikoto from the kitchen.
"It is me, Yuuki, Mikoto-san"
"Yuuki-chan!"
´Here she comes´
The woman came out of the kitchen and pulled me up in a literally breath taking hug.
´Air I need air!´
"Mikoto" I rasped out
"Ah sorry my dear come in"
"Thank you"
´Sweet air~´
"Sasuke please go up and tell Itachi that Yuuki-chan is here I think he would be happy to see you after so long, always on missions and busy with his training so it is now 3 or 4 month ago when you saw each other right?"
"I think..."
´Really so long ago?´
´Yes to be exact 3 Month and two weeks´
´You kept track´
´Sure, I like him´
Sasuke didn´t look happy with that order but went upstairs telling his brother, just to come back with a message.
"He said he doesn´t have time for you" Sasuke just looked a little bit smug.
´Should we leave him alone?´
´No I will try something´
"Ne Sasuke?"
Trying not to sound interest he asked
"What do you have in mind?"
"Getting Itachi out of his room"
"He won´t, he is busy"
"That makes it just a greater challenge" with challenge I had him hooked.
"How will you do that?"
"Show me first to his room then you can see with how I will do it"
"Hn" he leads the way to Itachi´s room and we opened the door.
"Sasuke I said that I´m busy" There was an edge of tiredness in his voice.
He was sitting on his desk writing a report probably, and didn´t turned around.
I stepped into the room.
"You know the Hokage won´t be able to read your report today"
With that I got his attention his head snapped to me and I think I heard his neck cracking.
"Yuuki?"
"Father went today to him to get his mission debriefing but the Hokage looked himself up with the clan head´s and some trusted ninjas they don´t let anyone in so you can put that away for a few minutes and do something with us"
He stared at me for a long moment and I just stared back.
´I´m not backing down Tachi´
"Please Onii-san" pleaded Sasuke from behind me and Itachi gave a heavy sight.
"Alright but only for a short time" He laid his brush down and followed us outside into the garden.
"Will you show me how to throw the shuriken big brother"
"Hai"
"Me too" both of them looked to me.
"I will show you and Sasuke you can train alongside"
"But-"
a long stare from Itachi shut him up.
Itachi got us to the place where some pole with targets stands and handed me a shuriken.
´Pretty heavy...and sharp´
Itachi takes my hand with the shuriken and showed me first how to hold it.
´Keep the blush down girl´
´I try but he is so close and has such warm hands´
"Did you listen Yuuki"
Blush.
´Curse you, body´
"H-Hai"
"Show me then" I hold the shuriken like he showed me all the while fighting my blush down.
´I hope he don´t sees it´
"Good and now when you pull the hand a bit to yourself like this" he still holds my hand and showed me the motion.
"Try it" I throw it but missed the target and hit the ground next to it.
Itachi hands me another shuriken.
"Keep trying"
I did and on the end of the day I had a lot of thin little cuts on my hands but then I make a mistake I didn´t hold it right and get a deep gash into my hand.
"Ouch!"
"Yuuki!" Itachi crouched down and took my hand to look at the wound for few seconds he had an undefined look on his face but then picked me up bridal style and put me down on the porch.
´He just-´
´OMG´
"Yuu?" Sasuke stand before me holding my hand and looking concert.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes Sasuke it just hurt a bit"
Itachi came back with a first aid kid and began to clean and bandage my hand, my other hand was taken by Sasuke.
"You shouldn´t use weapons when you only get hurt" he said silently and looked at his feet's.
´There does someone not like it that you get hurt, how sweet~´
"All done" Itachi gave my right hand free.
"You know Sasuke is right you should better try first with wooden weapons so you don´t get hurt"
´They are really sweet´
I smiled at both of them.
"Thank you Itachi"
"You are welcome Yuuki-chan" he lightly caresses my bandaged hand.
3rd POV
Two days after the Hokage looked his office the door opened again and the clan head´s went straight home, all but Shikaku.
"And you are sure that this person who wrote this is actually alive and in our village?"
"Yes the Inuzuka´s recognized the dog, he was born here and never left the village just two weeks ago he went stray, how could a person far away from the village and apparently dead get the scroll on this dog? Also my instinct says that this excuse of being dead is too smooth."
"Then I will give you a special mission. Find this person and bring her without injures to me"
"Hai"
3rd POV end
