Notes: I realised how vastly different the feelings can be from different character perspective but I found it quite fun to write from the viewpoint of an 'outsider' towards the Uchiha brothers' relationship.

Chapter 2: Precious

Fast like the wind, I used my signature technique, Shunshin no Jutsu, and took the green dinosaur. I held the toy at my head level, enjoying the sight of Sasuke jumping up and down like cat jumping at some catnip. I loved to tease Sasuke this way even if he started crying and calling me a meanie. A tap on my shoulder distracted me and I turned my attention from the adorable child to the person behind me.

Of course, it was Itachi. He was here to rescue….

"Is that my limited edition Hashirama Senju figurine that is one of a kind crafted by the greatest craftsman in Konoha?"

"Hmm, I wonder…," Itachi smirked as he waved the fragile item in his hand.

Kneeling before him, I threw aside my shame and grabbed Itachi's leg.

"Please let go of Hashirama-sama! He's innocent!"

Itachi continued smiling but he held out his free hand to me. As we exchanged hostages, I threatened.

"One day, I take your most precious item!"

With a face of a demon, Itachi wrapped his arms around his younger brother and spoke.

"You dare?"

Nope. Nope. Never mind. Like hell I was going against Demon Itachi. That was worse than Mama Bear Itachi and second to Smiling-but-Fuming Itachi. It was time to retreat and rethink my revenge plan against Itachi. For now, it was time to Shunshin away!

"Did you stick your tongue at me again, Sasuke?"
