Another Uchiha….?
A/N: A few days ago I readed this story called Uchiha or Snape….I was so fascinated by it that I couldn't help but start to imagine things more so seeing the story abandoned. So I got all the courage I had together (I also asked a little from my bro's) and asked if I could possibly make my own story being based and/or inspired by this one….the author hasn't answered back yet and I did really try to wait until he/she (not sure) did, but failed…. Author from Uchiha or Snape please don't ask me to delete this story! The basic plot comes from Snape or Uchiha I own nothing not even the basic plot so…..
Dedicated to: my readers, not that there are much.
Eight Chapter: Entering the Manor and the parents…
"As long as you come with me sure."
Before they entered the Manor Seiya squeezed Sasuke's shoulder and took a deep breath. He had to stay strong for Sasuke while he saw his parents. He was mentally preparing himself to see both his parents: after Kakashi had confirmed what had happened he hadn't thought about seeing them again. He wasn't sure how he would react: would he be angry? Would he be happy? He was feeling confused, but he put his occlumence walls on to stay in control. Everything that would happen would happen inside his head, he would choose what the rest saw.
When he opened the front door to the garden Sasuke took hold of his hand. They both looked around the garden; it was a disaster the plants had grown without any control. The grass came to Seiya's knees, looking around he felt relieved he could fix the garden with magic and that's it. They were about to take a few steps toward the entrance of the house when memories assaulted Seiya. He hadn't expected that to happen with his occlumence walls up, but all those years away trying to forget mustn't have been doing him any good. It was difficult for him to return to reality, there were too many memories at the same moment.
When he came back to reality he saw Sasuke staring at him, shaking his shoulders softly and he was sitting on the ground. He blinked a few times Sasuke smiled and let his shoulders go.
"Hi, you blacked out a moment there." Sasuke informed him smiling sadly.
"Sorry I… too many memories…won't happen again." Seiya too smiled sadly and Sasuke nodded, he understood.
Seiya stood up and Sasuke observed him, his eyes didn't hold any emotion…. not any longer and Sasuke asked himself what was going around his brother's head. It must be difficult to him to return to a place he hadn't thought he would ever see again. Sasuke wanted to ask Seiya what was going on, what bothered him, but he didn't. Sasuke stayed silent and didn't ask any questions….he wondered what Seiya had done to have such emotionless eyes; they didn't even reflect the sun light. Seiya was rigid even if his movements where still elegant, they seemed unnatural. Sasuke signed and followed Seiya to the entrance getting hold of his brother's hand again. Sasuke to had memories, but they weren't as strong as Seiya's he supposed.
Seiya took a deep breath again and looked down at Sasuke, who nodded at him: they were going to do it. When he opened the door he saw that the place hadn't changed much in the years he was away. There was some destruction and much dust, but beneath that all: he could see that the house was in good condition. Sasuke's hold of his hand tightened and Seiya soon felt the why. He wasn't as sensitive to it as Sasuke having lived with ghosts, but he felt it to. The place had become colder than it had been when they entered. Seiya was sure there was someone with them, but he couldn't see it or them. He looked at Sasuke and nodded, Sasuke understood: Seiya felt it to.
Seiya wasn't afraid of who it was. He had lived too much to fear a ghost that only could torment him if he let it. He understood Sasuke, he was younger and was very young and impressionable when he first saw his parents. Seiya wanted Sasuke to feel save so he took out his wand, after doing so he felt Sasuke relax a little. They started to explore the house slowly, Itachi had been kind to the house and it wouldn't take that long to return it to its original glory. As they continued to explore and check the house, Sasuke showed Seiya his old room and they both saw it intact aside from the dust. After that Seiya decided to return Sasuke the same favor. They moved toward where Seiya's room had once been: next to the library. Sasuke stopped and Seiya turned toward him.
"What?" Seiya asked softly.
"I….I was never allowed to enter these two rooms….Itachi sometimes did when no one saw him. It makes sense now." Sasuke answered looking unsure at the door.
"What do you think: is it still there?" Asked Seiya and he wasn't sure if he asked Sasuke or himself.
"I don't know….let's see." Answered Sasuke before Seiya could open the door he was stopped. "They are close now and there are more than one." Sasuke whispered in Seiya's ear.
Seiya nodded, he had felt it to. When they explored the house he could feel how they draw the attention of more ghosts to themselves, but he ignored them. None had made itself known and that bothered Seiya not that he would voice his thoughts. Where were they waiting for? Were they afraid to show themselves now that Sasuke wasn't alone? Where they planning something?
With these thoughts he opened the door and they entered what once had been his bedroom. It was still the same as when he had left: seeing this he couldn't help but smile a little. Sasuke looked around the room: it had a desk, a wardrobe, many books, some weapons hung on the walls, above the bed there were a few family pictures (one even had Kakashi, still with both eyes) and he could also see that there laid an album on the bed. The album was very used and it seemed to have dried tears, Sasuke suspected what Itachi had done inside the room and felt a pang of sympathy.
Seiya let Sasuke's hand go: he walked over to the bed and sat down mentioning for Sasuke to come over. Sasuke did and sat down next to him. Seiya opened the album and they both looked at the pictures. There were a few of Seiya as a baby: somewhere of him alone others where with one or both of his parents, there were a few with some cousins. Slowly with the progress of the pages Sasuke saw his brother grow and hold Itachi as a baby. As they continued to see the pictures Sasuke became completely absorbed by them and the low deep voice of Seiya who told him when and where the pictures had been take. Sasuke could easily tell from the pictures he saw that: Seiya was the perfect mix between both his parents. With his black with a hint of blue hair, small nose, etc. While he was more his mother and Itachi was his father. When they were looking at some pictures of Seiya and Kakashi: both in ceremonial clothes, Seiya suddenly stopped talking. Sasuke looked up from the album at his brother and saw him looking in front of them; he followed his brother's gaze and gulped….In front of them stood their fathers ghost. Sasuke grabbed onto Seiya and he (Seiya) stood up blocking Sasuke's view of their father and their fathers of Sasuke.
"Well it seems one of you finally had the guts to show up." Sasuke heard Seiya say calmly. Seiya was feeling so many things it confused him, but he didn't show anything: a thing he had learned and saved his live many times as a spy.
Sasuke looked from behind Seiya at their father. Fugaku's complete attention was on Seiya, he looked at his eldest son as if he was a miracle. Both boys saw that he wearied his Kimono with the Uchiha symbol on the back. Fugaku looked at Seiya in awe and Sasuke was grateful that he wasn't the one holding his father's attention. He looked at Seiya and saw that his brothers eyes where cold and glaring at their father as if he was daring him.
"Seiya?" Fugaku asked, to Sasuke it seemed almost a plea. It seemed as if their father wanted to come close, but something held him back.
"No: Father Christmas." Answered Seiya back irony dripping from every single letter, Sasuke had no clue who Father Christmas was. "Who else would I be?" He asked voice cold and so different from when he was telling Sasuke about the albums pictures.
"It's you….I thought I lost you." Sasuke heard their father say, it seemed that he was holding back tears.
"And you did…." Answered Seiya softly and Sasuke was the only one that heard him.
"What? How? Why?" Fugaku was so happy to see his first born and had so many questions, but before Seiya could answer another ghost made its presence know.
"Seiya?" This voice was soft, gentle and female: Sasuke and Seiya both knew it was their mothers.
"Mother…." Said Seiya and Sasuke saw how a ghost seemed to hug Seiya close, he heard sobs and felt Seiya shiver.
Sasuke looked at their Father and saw that the man he once had thought emotionless seemed hurt and had tears in his eyes. Suddenly he saw his father look at him and give him a small smile before looking back at both Seiya and their Mother.
"Mother…please let go of me…. Having a ghost hugging you isn't the nicest thing in the world." Seiya said still in that cold dull voice and their Mother let go of him, she had tears running down her face.
She turned took a look at Sasuke and came up behind Seiya to hug him too; Sasuke shivered to and understood what Seiya had said. It felt as if someone was throwing ice water at him at a cold winter day. She let him go and looked at the both of them focusing more at Seiya. Sasuke wasn't bothered by this: normally he would boil with jealousy, but something about the whole situation stopped him from feeling that way. Maybe it was because he knew that his parents had lost Seiya without having choice.
Seiya on the other way was boiling with anger. He was angry at his father for the decisions he had made after he (seiya) had been taken away, those decisions had hurt his siblings. He was angry at his father for not staying in contact, for living as if he hadn't existed. He also was very happy to see his parents. He felt hurt and betrayed by them and even so he wanted to cry and hug them. Seiya did the only thing he knew to do in such situations: he didn't do anything. When his mother hugged Sasuke he saw his brother shiver and felt for him. He looked up at his father and saw the tears in his eyes, one side of him wanted to comfort his father while the other wanted to laugh. Suddenly Seiya felt tired, he still hadn't gotten all his energy back and didn't take a potion that morning. He sat down on the bed and saw everyone look at him.
"Look at the both of you!" He heard his mother exclaim. "You have grown so much! Don't you think Fugaku?" Seiya closed his eyes hearing his mother's voice allowing it to embrace him.
"They did….Seiya changed the most." He heard his father say and opened his eyes, his father still was at the other side of the room and Seiya knew what was happening. He told his magic his father could come close. "How have you both been?" Asked Fugaku: looking longingly at his sons as he came closer.
"I have been fine, but I won't take revenge for the clan any longer. Not at Itachi not at the village and not at kanoha." Answered Sasuke firmly, and Seiya eyed his father before answering.
"I'm no one's toy any longer. I'm here to start anew and life in peace…..if you want someone for your wrecked revenge plans: go and find someone else." Answered Seiya almost growling. "And if you even try to bring it up: I will wish you a good after life." Said Seiya.
"No! I…I wanted to know how you were doing…really. I was blind, revenge made me lose everything I still had…." Said Fugaku kneeling in front of his sons.
"Seiya give him another chance…" Said their mother softly, Seiya nodded.
"I will, but one step in the wrong direction and he will be gone." Sasuke felt bad for his father, but he understood that Seiya didn't trust him.
"You have grown a lot…. you became a man and I missed it." Said their father looking proud, Sasuke hadn't expected this. "And you Sasuke seem to be in good hands, do what he asks from you….he won't let you down." His father told him and Sasuke smiled.
"I will do so father and I know he won't." Said Sasuke as he took hold of Seiya's hand.
"Now may I ask what brought you back home, my dear?" Sasuke knew that the question was aimed at Seiya.
"The Kages thought it was time for me to return." Seiya's answer was short and monotone.
"I see. I'm so happy you and Sasuke are home again. Will you come to live here?" Asked their mother looking at Seiya with concern, both their parents sat on the floor and Sasuke saw his father analyze Seiya.
"Eventually we will return yes. There are some things that need to be done before." Answered Seiya.
"What happened to you? Don't you trust us any longer?" Asked their father and Sasuke had been thinking the same thing.
"What happened to me? Many things…and I don't know. Many things happened in a very short time I need to process them all." Said Seiya and for a moment Sasuke saw the mask slip and he thought Seiya would cry, but then the mask was shoved back in place.
"I see: take your time son, when you are ready we will be here." Said Fugaku giving Seiya a look that said more than his words, Sasuke took the look as a plea to be forgiven.
"Go, clear your head and return when you are ready my dear." Said their mother giving Seiya the same look as their father had done.
"I will." Seiya answered and stood up looking at Sasuke. "It's almost noon we have to go, but you can return when you want, later this day I will make copies from the keys." He told Sasuke who nodded. "Good-bye Mother, Father." Seiya bowed to them before leaving room.
"Bye son." Answered both parents together at the same time...looking somber at their eldest son.
"Take care of him, will you Sasuke?" Asked their Father looking at Seiya's back.
"I will." Said Sasuke and he would.
"Do so my baby, he must have suffered much and loves you already….he is the only family you have left. Don't lose him." Said their mother hugging him again as good-bye.
"I promise you I won't mother, give him time…..he has only been here since yesterday." He told his parents and hoped it was only that.
"We will. Bye Sasuke." Said Fugaku.
Sasuke waved bye to both of them and followed Seiya out. They ran back to the village and Sasuke had problems keeping up with Seiya's speed. Seiya was silent when they reached Kakashi's place and stayed so at lunch even if Naruto tried to speak with him. Sasuke noticed that his eyes had yet to change back to normal.
At the Manor:
"Fugaku, do you think he will ever forgive us?" Asked Mikoto looking at her husband, concern was evident in her voice.
"I believe he will, dear…. He has a lot to process. Give him time." Said Fugaku assuring his wife…. even if he might be assuring himself. He couldn't bear the thought of not being forgiven by his son.
"Did you see his eyes? They didn't even reflect the light….they were death even more so than those from a corps." Said Mikoto crying and Fugaku held her close.
"I know, but they weren't so the whole time….I believe he did that himself. He didn't trust us with his emotions." He whispered softly.
"But what do we do then if he doesn't even trust us? How will he ever forgive us?" She sobbed into his kimono.
"We give him time, space and are patient. You know Seiya he has a heart of gold, he is a pure soul. It may take time, but in the end he will come to us and once he does we answer his questions: all of them honestly." He told his wife cleaning her tears.
"Who are you and what did you do with my husband?" Asked Mikoto in a teasing voice, Fugaku chuckled at this.
"Nothing…..death gave me time to think and realize things. I should never have tried to make Sasuke revenge us, but I have the feeling that that is one of the reasons Seiya is back…." He told his wife hugging her close.
A/N2: Please leave a review….(T^T) Ohhh and this is unbetaed and I am not a native English speaker so please have mercy.
To all those who are asking themselves THE question: Seiya will always hold his promiseses. What do you think about the way Seiya acted? Good? Bad? We have to keep in mind that he was 5 the last time he saw his parents and suffered a lot since then. How long will he stay closed off? What or who will make him open up? Will he forgive his parents? What will happen with the other ghosts: those that didn't made themselves know? You didn't expected Fugaku to be the way he was did you? But hey he has been death for over 10 years: that gives one time to think.
