"Aww! Come on Sasu-chan!" Shisui whined as he looked at his youngest cousin. "You can't just demand to go straight back to the compound when we just got here!" The curly haired Uchiha gestured at the park they were in front of.

"I don't care! I want to go home!" Sasuke pouted and crossed his arms as he turned away from the older male.

"B-but you've been begging to go to the park all day! Now that we're here you're whining and saying you want to leave!"

"Hmph!" Shisui sighed, why did it feel like whenever he watched over Sasuke the boy always threw a tantrum?

"Look, let's make a deal." Sasuke turned back around to face his cousin. He was still pouting but one of his eyebrows was raised. Shisui sighed, he really had to stop making deals with four year olds.

~{*.*}~

Shisui wanted to curl up into a little ball and cry. As he looked around him to see multiple kids shouting and yelling at him he couldn't help but wonder one thing: what had he done to deserve this?

"Give me a piggyback!" A little girl with long brown hair demanded.

"Yeah! Give us all piggybacks!" A boy with dark blue hair yelled.

Shouts of agreement sounded from all the other children and suddenly Shisui felt multiple hands grabbing onto his clothes as the children tried to climb up him. It was a challenge just to keep his balance and before long he fell flat on his back. The children surrounded him, swarming him. He blinked rapidly, his brain trying desperately to process what was happening.

He had made a deal to let Sasuke ride on his shoulders as he raced around the park. He didn't use shunshin since if he did the little boy would hurl and then Mikoto would be angry. Pluss Shisui didn't exactly want to be covered in vomit.

Someone's foot met his face and the Uchiha let out a groan as he stared into the green eyes of the culprit. Another groan left his lips when the blonde haired owner of the eyes smiled sadistically. Their green orbs sparkled with mischief and Shisui let out a whine that sounded suspiciously like one a puppy would make.

"Tie him up!" The child's shout was followed by cheers from the other children and Shisui gulped.

"H-hey! We can talk about this, r-right?"

~{*.*}~

Sasuke sighed as he sunk further into the wooden bench he was sitting on. He had gotten his cousin to sprint around the park with him on his shoulders and after a couple of laps a group of kids- who looked to be around his age- had crowded around the older Uchiha, demanding to have a turn. He wasn't sure how he had gotten away unnoticed but he was glad he had. The children had grouped up against Shisui and had tackled him onto the ground. He had watched his cousin beg for mercy or whatever- he couldn't hear exactly what they were saying but his cousin had literally been down on his knees and seemed to be begging them not to do something. Unfortunately for Shisui it seemed like the children weren't very cooperative for they proceeded to hold him down whilst two of them tied him up using some rope they had gotten from mid-air.

Sasuke didn't care what they did to his cousin. If a group of kids were capable of beating up a member of the Uchiha clan who was also a Jonin of the village then honestly, who was he to stop them?

Sasuke sighed as he leaned back and closed his dark eyes, he and his cousin should probably start on their way home in the next hour or so. He opened one eye and looked in the direction of where the group of kids were currently taking turns trying to hit his cousin with a large stick. It seemed that they had managed to tie him to the branch of a tree and were treating him like he was a piñata.

After watching a small, lavender haired girl come close to hitting his dear cousin in the stomach twice and a brown haired boy whack him in the head Sasuke decided that it was time he and his cousin started on their journey home. The boy got up from the bench and walked over to the group of -evil- children.

He held up his hand in a wave and most of the kids turned around when they noticed him. He noticed that several of the girls' faces were pink, did they have sunburn?

He opened his mouth to ask for custody over his idiot cousin but before the words had a chance to exit his mouth the small, blonde haired boy who's turn it was to try and hit Shisui, swung the the wooden object and hit the Uchiha square in the stomach, narrowly avoiding the boy's no-no zone. Sasuke winced as he watched his poor cousin's muscles tense up, the curly haired male groaned loudly and Sasuke decided enough was enough.

"Hey!" He shouted, gaining the attention of the children. "You can't do that to him!"

"Oh yeah?" A blonde haired girl who looked to be a year or two older then Sasuke stepped forward. It seemed that she was the leader. "Who says?" Her green eyes narrowed as she glared at Sasuke.

The young Uchiha didn't let the look she was giving him bother him though and he puffed out his chest, jutting his chin out proudly. "Sasuke Uchiha! Youngest son of the Uchiha clan Patriarch, little brother of Uchiha Itachi and cousin of the baka you guys are beating up!" He pointed at Shisui who seemed to be in a daze.

"Che," The blond haired girl scoffed. "So you're one of those kids who think they can do anything because their part of a big clan, huh? Well think again! You said this dum-dum's your cousin, right? Well then that means he's an Uchiha too and we beat him up just fine!" She crossed her arms, looking down at him.

He scowled at her, clenching his fists as she continued to talk.

"What makes you think we can't take you on and win? Look around. There's a whole bunch of us and only one of you! You still think you have a chance of winning against us?"

She wasn't exactly wrong. The odds were against him and chances were one or two of the older kids in the group were already in the academy. He knew a few moves but they would undoubtably be stronger then he was and there was an awful lot more of them then there was of him. He shook his head, he could handle them and when he and Shisui got home he would be able to tell Itachi all about how he had saved their cousin and had beaten up a whole army of children!

He rushed forward, arm pulled back, ready to punch the girl in the face. He let out a battle cry as his fist made contact with the green eyed girl's face. He smirked when she fell back onto the floor, landing on her bottom. She sniffed, tears forming in her eyes. Before Sasuke could smirk the girl had gotten up from the floor and had smacked his cheek. He frowned and held a hand up to where a bright pink hand mark branded his face. He tackled her and they both wrestled back and forth, rolling around on the ground. He managed to get on top of the blonde and was about to punch her in the face when someone held him back.

"Let go of me!" He yelled as he squirmed in their grasp.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to do that until you calm down Sasu-cakes."

Sasuke froze, his dark eyes wide. He hadn't ever heard his cousin sound so.. serious. The arms holding him in place disappeared and Shisui turned his cousin around so that the young boy was facing him.

"Whilst I appreciate you sticking up for me I do not support the way you acted." The younger Uchiha looked at the ground, he didn't know why but he felt too ashamed to meet his cousin's gaze. "You can throw an awesome punch though!" Sasuke looked up at his cousin and relaxed slightly when he saw the grin on the curly haired Uchiha's face.

"Yeah! Nii-san's going to be so proud when I tell him! I bet he'll even train me more!" Shisui's expression softened and he put a hand on Sasuke's head.

"Yeah.. maybe."

~{*.*}~

The two got quite the surprise when they made it back to the house where Sasuke lived. They had managed to enter the house without alerting Mikoto and when they entered the living room they were met with the sight of a sleeping Sakura who's head was resting on Itachi's lap. Said Uchiha, who was playing with her petal coloured tresses, looked up when the two entered the room.

"Chibi-chan! I didn't know you were coming!" Shisui exclaimed as soon as he spotted her trademark pink hair.

"Shisui, Otouto." Itachi greeted them with a nod before going back to playing with the sleeping girl's hair. It was honestly quite shocking that Sakura hadn't woken up from all the noise- said noise being Shisui's yells.

Itachi tensed when the curly haired Uchiha shunshined over to him and picked up the young girl. She groaned and her green eyes fluttered open, staring sleepily at Shisui's face.

"Y'know Chibi-chan, I wouldn't have gone to the park with little Sasu-cakes if I had known you were coming-"

"I told you earlier today."

"-but since I wasn't aware that you were coming I'm afraid I'm a bit late on greeting you. I apologise Chibi-chan." He hugged the girl, who was still half asleep and then sat down next to Itachi, placing Sakura on his lap. The young girl was still half asleep and so all she did was sleepily mumble a string of words.

"Mm.. too loud.. Mm- Inner quiet." Shisui's eyebrows pulled together and Sasuke rushed over to his brother.

"Guess what Nii-san! Guess what!" Sasuke bounced in his spot in front of Itachi. "Me and Shisui went to the park earlier and-"

"Sasu-chan, Shisui-kun, would you mind telling me why you are home in such a state?" Both boys froze and Sasuke turned around to see his mother standing at the entrance of the room with her hands on her hips. "Shisui-kun, give Sakura-chan to Itachi-kun please."

The curly haired boy obeyed the woman's command, he had seen his Auntie angry before and he did not want to be on the receiving end of her fury.

"Good," She nodded her head. "Now Sasu-chan, Shisui-kun, please follow me."

Shisui got up from his seat and both of the boys followed after the dark haired Matriarch who had disappeared past the doorway.

Itachi sighed, shaking his head. His cousin and his little brother should have known that the female would be annoyed at them for entering the house in such a battered state. He just wondered what could of happened that would cause Shisui to have scratches and bruises all over his body and for Sasuke to have a bright, pink- hand shaped- mark on his cheek. They had both been covered in dirt and their clothes were ruined. The eight year old had also noticed how the older male had been careful not to hold the small pinkette too close to his stomach.

'I suppose their trip to the park was rather eventful.'

A/N: Hello! So I am not sure why but I don't feel completely satisfied with this chapter.. I'll probably come back to it in the future and edit it here and there but I'm pretty sure it will stay the same for the most part.

Erm- I know that this is late but I was having some technical issues so yeah..

After today you all will be unable to vote for the story you would rather have me publish whenever I can't publish a chapter of my main three stories! I shall be counting up the votes tomorrow so please, VOTE NOW!

(If you do not understand please check out the Author Notes on the last couple of chapters!)

Also the reason why only the blonde girl fought Sasuke was because the others didn't want to mess with the Uchiha- they didn't know Shisui was one because they didn't properly see the symbol on his back.

Fun fact- The girl who attacked Sasuke is the sister of the boy who hit Shisui in his stomach.

That will be all- I think?

Sorry for any mistakes!

Hope you enjoyed!
