I woke up in a room. Not our room. Only the floor was wooden, the walls were made of beautiful rice paper, and I was laying in a warm futon, although it was a warm day. First thing I did was wiggle out of it, too suffocating in there. The moment I made a noise, I could hear somebody rushing to the room. The paper door was slid open and in walked a lady. The woman was tall and broad-shouldered, with black hair and eyes. She wore non-traditional clothes, unlike the house.

"You're finally awake," Said the lady," I washed your clothes and we have food ready for you whenever you need it." As she said it I looked down at my clothes, and they were light green and red. I didn't like it. I only wear black.

"Who are you?" I asked the lady," can I have my clothes back?"

"I am Sumiko Uchiha," The lady answered," This is where you are living now, and yes, you can have your clothes back." She said as she left the room. When she came back, she had my pair of pants and baggy shirt, all black. Sumiko walked out as I changed into my clothes, it felt so much better than those other clothes I was wearing. When I finished dressing I left the room. I walked into a corridor with many other paper doors, the house was huge. Then I heard noises from a door to my right, I chose to ignore them and instead walk to the end of the corridor and into a big green garden. I sat as close as I could to the fence, and then tried to figure out what I saw before.

I dug deep into my brain for details of what happened before. But all I could remember were the red leaves and a white-haired man. I sat in the garden for a while, pondering who's blood was spattered on the leaves and who I knew to have white hair. Then I heard the people from inside call my name, and realised that they were the first people in the world (other than my parents) that I ever conversed with. They were the first people I ever learned the name of. Sumiko was the first person I ever talked to.

The moment I realized that I ran back into the house and slammed the door leading to the voices open. When I saw Sumiko, I ran over to her and shouted at her,

"Who are you?!" Only then did I notice that the whole room went quiet. In the room were Sumiko, a middle-aged man who next to him was a little boy huddling, and a boy around my age with goggles his forehead.

"I told you," Sumiko quietly answered," I am Sumiko Uchiha. Your parents were attacked two days ago, and because you are part of our clan you joined in to live with us." As she finished explaining, she patted the spot next to her with her hand and said,"Come join us and we will explain." The shocked six year old me didn't know what to do except sit down next to her.

"Your father was my second cousin." Sumiko explained," I was good friends with him. He was nice but overprotective of things, especially this one girl from the Hyuga clan. Anyway that was your mother. Now when I heard they died, I chose that it would be good if you lived with us, even though most orphans around here live by himself. You just don't know the city and people well enough to be able to live by yourself."

"What's up with mom and dad? Where are they?" I asked, I just couldn't wrap my head around the idea that they were gone.

"They're dead." The middle-aged man said with an assertive voice," They are gone from this world, you will never see them again. They died and you are lucky- we are lucky that you were found by the White Fang. Now you will live with us, become useful to Konohakure and never think about following the path of your parents. They lived without pride."

I already wanted to go home.


Hey!

This is my first story so I would love some critical reviews (as in ones that would help me make the story better)

Anyway I know the chapters are short, but there are many of them and I post often!
