Dislcaimer: I don't own Naruto.
Misuke breathed heavily. This guy wasn't kidding when he told him he wouldn't hold back.
"Had enough yet?" Itachi smirked.
Misuke scowled, he was mocking him, and nobody mocked Uchiha Misuke, not Takun, not Sasuke, and most certainly not Itachi.
"Tell me, what age were you promoted to ANBU?" Itachi asked,
Misuke smirked, "Fifteen," he was so proud, and so was his father.
"Fifteen?" Itachi snorted, "I made ANBU captain at thirteen."
He grit his teeth, he was mocking him again.
He threw a kunai at him, "Bet you don't know chidori,"
Catching the kunai and flinging it back, blue sparks came out of Itachi's knuckles.
"Please, I've known chidori since before you were born."
Misuke ran out of the kunais way and straight toward his uncle, taijutsu should do it.
"You're very similar to your father," Itachi dodged his kick and sent a punch to his stomach.
Misuke caught it and scoffed, "I'm nothing like him."
Itachi threw three shuriken and explained, "Well not physically I suppose. How did you end up with blue hair anyways? I mean I realize Sasuke has a sort of bluish tint, but yours is like indigo."
Misuke avoided each one and swung a kick to his side, "Tch, why? Am I not Uchiha enough for you?"
Itachi raised his eyebrows, almost getting kicked before grabbing it with his arm,
"Uchiha, yes. Infact you bear incredible resemblance to Izuna. But Uchiha's have black hair, not blue." He then threw his leg to the floor, causing Misuke to fall.
"You know for a supposed 'genius', you sure are ignorant when it comes to genetics. Think dumbass, to have a child traits get mixed and if Sasuke doesn't have blue hair, who's the only possible candidate?"
Itachi narrowed his eyes, "I considered your mother having something to do with this, but Uchiha genes are dominant." The only girl who'd been Sasuke's age and had blue hair was the Hyuuga heiress, unless-
"Is your mother the Hyuuga?"
"There's a lot of Hyuuga's you know. Some have long brown hair, and are tall."
Itachi tried to rationalize his thoughts, as he remembered, the Hyuuga had short blue hair, and she herself was short even for an 8 year old.
"The Hyuuga heiress, or former, I don't imagine they'd let her keep her title after marrying their clans greatest rival."
Misuke smirked, "That's her."
Itachi mentally swore, it was so like Sasuke to taint the family name with other's blood. And with a Hyuuga? What kind of ByakuSharingan mutation would that lead to? However since the one he was currently fighting had a strong Sharingan, he doubted any mutation had occurred, could women even pass the Byakugan down?
He shook his head, foolish little brother, "Do you have any siblings?"
Misuke got up and aimed a punch to his chest, "Enough talk, lets fight."
Itachi chuckled, he really was like his father. He caught the punch and twisted his wrist, not enough to break it, but probably to sprain it. Misuke bit the inside of his cheek, and tried to kick his arm away from his hand. Itachi caught that too, Misuke had no choice but to use his last free hand and charged it with chidori. But before he could even swing Itachi had somehow held both his arm and leg with one hand and grabbed Misuke's chidori with the other, flinging him to the floor.
"Talk first, then fight. I don't feel like killing you yet." Itachi reasoned.
Misuke got back up, enraged. He thought he could actually kill him. "Answer a question for me first, why did you join the Akatsuki after leaving? You're probably stronger than all of them, you killed the Uchiha clan for kami's sake. You could've gone so far,"
As much as Misuke hated to admit it, he actually idolized his uncle, such amazing power to be able to wipe out an entire clan and in one night's time. He'd always dreamed of leaving the village and becoming his own person, not necessarily become a villain. But he really hated getting bossed around by the Hokage and his father. However with his luck, stupid Namiko and Tejen would go after him, and probably his father too.
Itachi's eyes went soft for a moment as he looked down, before hardening again, "I have my reasons, now. Do you have any siblings."
Misuke frowned, "That was vague, and yes."
"How many?" Itachi further inquired,
Misuke went through a set of hand seals, and in a matter of seconds fire came rushing out of his mouth. Itachi caught on to his little antics, and replicated the same jutsu.
Soon that entire hallway had been engulfed in flames and smoke.
When they were finished, all that was left was the walls and ash. Misuke tried to breath, his burnt lips stinging with each inhale. He wiped the sweat off his eyebrow.
"Tired?" Itachi smirked,
Frowning at the same condescending tone from before, Misuke threw a kunai with a paper bomb.
Itachi caught it and flung it toward a wall. He got ahold of Misuke's neck and loosely held it,
"You're using academy tricks, get serious. I really don't want to kill you yet. Now answer me, how many siblings do you have?"
Misuke scowled, Itachi sighed, tightening his grip on his poor nephew. "Don't make me ask again."
"One." Misuke choked out.
Smirking with victory, Itachi loosened his grip slightly. "Gender?"
"Male," Misuke rolled his eyes.
Itachi grimaced, "Don't tell me he's younger than you?"
Misuke grunted.
Itachi's eyes widened for a moment, he couldn't believe it. Sasuke was so unoriginal, having two boys like his father did. He wondered if the other child had a sharingan as well, "Tell me, do you and your brother compete?"
Misuke snorted, "Tch please, Takun's no match for me, not with those eyes at least."
"Are you referring to the Byakugan?" Itachi presumed.
Misuke nodded,
"I'm assuming you don't like him?"
"Nobody likes him in the family, well, Hinata does, but she has no choice. And Sasuke's a dick that hates his children."
Itachi almost laughed, this boy had no respect for his parents, addressing them by their first names. It was like they did not have authority over him, like they weren't even a family. Then his blood boiled, this kid was spoiled. He had a family, and a great life. He had a younger brother, and was a successful ninja. That would've been Itachi's life. Ungrateful bastard.
"Yeah, it's a real shame. But maybe this new baby will come out with my spare." Misuke's eyes glistened with hope. "In my opinion though, Takun should be happy he never inherited the sharingan, I won't have to take his eyes."
Itachi suppressed a facepalm, spare? This boy's as power hungry as Sasuke was.
"I thought you only had one sibling,"
"That's alive," Misuke corrected, "She's not born yet."
Itachi nodded his head in understanding, "Isn't that taking advantage of your younger siblings eyes? She is a girl."
Misuke grinned smugly, "I have no shame in taking advantage of women."
Itachi's jaw hung slack before swinging his nephew to the wall, "Disgusting bastard."
"And another thing before I kill you, older siblings are born first to ensure and protect the lives of the younger kin. Hopefully Takun can do a better job as an older brother for her, than you ever could for both of them."
Misuke laughed, "You're one to talk, you wrecked your own little brothers life."
Itachi looked down before replying, "I didn't ruin it that bad, he's still alive isn't he?"
Misuke rolled his eyes, he was about to scoff when a voice interrupted him. It was feminine and very scratchy. He had to stop himself from jabbing his ears with his palms.
"So this is Sasuke's brat?"
"Can you not tell?" Itachi glared.
"I don't know, seems a little weak." She jeered.
Misuke took the time to study her. Fiery red hair that was a short spikey mess on one side and tamed long and straight on the other. Same colored eyes framed with black rimmed rectangles glasses.
"Whatever, did you detect Sasuke?"
She pushed her glasses up, "How could I not? I sensed his chakra before he even came in."
"Very well then, I'll finish this one up and go after him soon." Itachi pointed towards Misuke.
Clenching his teeth Misuke unleashed a flash of hand seals before his entire hand was flashing with blue sparks, who was this bitch? Who did she think she was calling him weak? He ran towards her about to strike.
Itachi cursed Sasuke for teaching him chidori. And rushed to a panicking Karin, punching Misuke away from her.
"Hitting a lady? Has Sasuke taught you any manners?" Itachi reprimanded.
Karin snorted, "It's not like Sasuke had any manners in the first place."
"And yet you still fell for me,"
Everyone's eyes widened as an eerie silence crept into the hallway, neither of them had to turn their heads to know who's voice that belonged to.
Eyeing the amount of puppets laid out before her, Kunisa clenched her fists. There were too many for her and Takun to take. On top of that, she had to protect Nino.
Sighing, she pumped chakra into her fists and ordered, "Just stay back and protect Nino."
Takun nodded, knowing if it were the other way around Kunisa would kill herself and then Nino would die as well.
The puppets chattered as she punched one by one, smashing them into pieces.
Sasori frowned, he had worked really hard on those. This girl was exactly like her mother, her fighting style, her temper, she even had her fierce eyes.
"You're making this an inconvenience, please stop smashing my puppets." Sasori complained.
Kunisa paid no mind to him, destroying each puppet to pieces.
Sasori narrowed his eyes, this girl needed to be more obedient. He decided it was time for him to fight as well, running towards her with a poison filled sword he swung it to her side.
Kunisa managed to avoid the hit, but not by much, her dress was torn slightly. She didnt even see him move, she was trying to avoid the other puppets.
She glared, "You know a thousand against one is no fair."
Sasori smirked, "All's fair in love and war."
That earned him a kick to the jaw, "I don't like you."
Getting irritated, Sasori swung his sword at her once more. Only to have Kunisa dodge it again, but nearly getting cut by another puppet. She ran back, keeping her distance.
"Pity, because I like you. A lot. It's really a shame I'm gonna have to kill you." Sasori caught her and threw her on the floor, keeping her still by her hair.
"I don't plan on dying, not by your hands at least." She spat pulling his hand away from her hair, smiling at the sound of cracked wood.
Sasori immediately retracted his hand, and pulled her up with the other. "I'm getting really tired of your attitude young lady,"
"Takun go! Protect Nino!"
Staring at Takun who nodded, finishing the last of the puppets and defending Nino with the protective eight trigrams, she eased. Knowing she had bought them enough time to escape.
She tried kicking his hold away from her neck, thrashing and punching. Her efforts ceased when he held tighter, until her vision blurred.
"Sad, I thought you'd prove to be as promising as your mother. Any last words dear?"
Suddenly the floor beneath them shook, the tiles becoming eradicated.
Kunisa smirked, "Speak of the devil." she only knew one person who could do that.
17 years ago
Ino starred adoringly at their newborn baby, still undecided on what to name him. Naruto cradled the baby in his arms, face equally as doting.
"He looks a lot like you, Naruto." Ino admired.
Naruto shook his head, taking his eye's off the baby for once, "No, I think he takes after you."
Ino tilted her head, looking at him as well, she looked back at the baby, and then back at her husband with a smile on her face. "But he's got your hair,"
Naruto frowned, "So? He's got your eyes."
Ino smiled softly, "He's got your smile."
Naruto smiled back, not wanting to argue who the baby looks more like. He knew they were bound to argue about his name in a while, so he let it go, enjoying the peace while it lasted.
"Yeah, I guess you're right, he does look like me."
Ino's face suddenly darkened, "What?"
Naruto sweat dropped, Ino. "Ah, I mean he does look like me..a little. But he looks much more like you!" he grinned sheepishly.
That seemed to do the trick, Ino was smiling as she scooped the baby out of her arms, chucking to herself, "Well, thats good. But I can't deny he does look like you. I think I'll name him Namiko," she mused.
Naruto perked at the name, it sounded vaguely familiar. "Namiko eh? Okay, sounds good." he smiled as well.
"But Naruto,"
Naruto got curious, but? Did she not like the name? "Hm?"
"I'm going to protect this child with my life, and I expect you to do the same. He's our first born, the first to grow up and pass down the name Uzumaki. If for some reason I'm never with him and you are, I need you to protect him. Make sure nothing ever happens to him. Even if we end up having skanky daughters like me, do whatever it takes to save him, do it. Because I know I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep this baby alive. Please," Ino's voice went from a firm command to a sad plea.
Grabbing his wife into an embrace and keeping enough space for the baby, he nodded. "Dont worry Ino, I won't let anything happen to him."
Ino smiled, relieved. Until she felt the baby being taken out of her hands. "Naruto?"
He put the now asleep Namiko into the crib and went back to Ino. Slipping his arms around her and carrying her out of the nursery. "Um, where are we going?"
Naruto grinned, "To make those skanky daughters!"
Naruto's blood ran like fire through his veins, almost cursing the kami for his luck. Not only did he have one son that hated him with all his being, but two daughters. Two. Fucking. Daughters. Two more woman he loved almost more than he loved his wife. And he wasn't with any of them right now, he wasn't even with his son. He was all alone, trying blindly to find Ino. He left Hinata and Shikamaru earlier, deciding that he wanted to look for Ino on his own, because of course he was Naruto and did everything on his own. Just like Kakashi Sensei noticed back in his genin days.
Suddenly he stopped in his tracks, remembering another memory.
9 years ago
Sweating profusely, Namiko dodged another shadow clone of his fathers. Before Naruto dispelled them all, "How about a break?"
Namiko caught his breath after nodding.
Naruto handed him his canteen of water, which he gladly took. But before he could drink from it he paused, "Dad?"
"Hm?"
"I noticed you left mom alone after you guys yelled at each other last night.."
Naruto grimaced, that fight was pretty heated, and he didn't want to be reminded of it.
"Yeah, well," he swallowed, not sure how to word it for his eight year old son. Ino had just recently told him she was pregnant, and with all that was going on already with two kids..
"Just don't do it again."
Naruto froze at his son's firm tone, never had he heard his son so, so demanding.
Naruto smiled, that was the days when he still called him dad, not the dreaded hokage sama. Naruto turned around, he knew Ino would never forgive him if he let anything happen to her favorite child.
Jeni was almost out of breath, keeping up with Sakubi was too tiring.
Sakubi ignored her, still angry at the previous bastard.
Jeni suddenly stopped, "Wait." she panted.
"Come on! We're so close I can smell Uzumaki," Sakubi whined.
"Uzumaki is right, but I don't think it's Ino.." Jeni focused her byakugan some more.
"Ugh forget it, we're losing time!" He grabbed her arm and ran to wherever his nose would take him.
"No! Wai-" Jeni screamed until, BAM.
Both Sakubi and Jeni fell to the floor, on top of each other..again.
"WHAT THE HELL?!"
Sakubi's eye's widened immediately, there's no mistaking that voice.
"GET THE FUCK OFF MY BOYFRIEND JONI!" Nino all but screamed.
Jeni's eye's suddenly went as wide as Sakubi's. There she was, on top of the Inuzuka heir. Arms wrapped around his neck, while his stay securely around her waist. She dared to look up, and almost cried when she saw what was there. A shocked Takun Uchiha, carrying a fuming Nino, she didn't even care that she got her name wrong, again. She didn't know which to be more afraid of, Takun thinking she was into Sakubi or Nino ready to kill her.
She noticed Sakubi was either too surprised or scared to move so she jumped off of him. Smoothing her skirt before shooting both of them an apologetic look.
Nino got off of Takun as well, running to her boyfriend and giving him the beating Misuke never finished.
"So you think just because I'm not around you can cheat on me like that huh?!" Nino's screams could be heard in between her punches.
Jeni sighed, she couldn't find the courage to look at Takun. Surprisingly enough he was the one to talk.
"So, uh, you and Sakubi huh?" he asked nonchalantly.
She panicked, "What? No! You see, when, when you guys bumped into us, I gues-"
"Look what we have here," a voice laughed, all four of them paused to look at their new visitors,
"Yeah, what do they look like to you?" another asked.
"Probably genin, nothing major." the first voice answered.
Both of them eyed the kids, spending more time on Nino than anybody else. Much to Jeni's dismay.
"I'll take the blonde, you take the other."
Jeni almost shook with seethe. She couldn't take it anymore, she hated that she wasn't important enough to be picked first as bad as that sounded. She hated that Takun misunderstood what had happened when they all bumped into each other. She hated that her mom always offered to train her rather than her dad. She hated the pitiful smile Tejen gave her. She hated that Sakubi and her constantly bumped into each other. And she fucking hated when the guy called her 'other'.
The first voice whined, "Aw man, why do I get the flat one?"
And then all hell broke loose, because that was all it took for Hyuuga Jeni to break.
SO? HOW WAS THAT?! SO MANY CLIFF HANGERS I KNOW! I'M SO MEAN ;D
