During a bright sunny day, Mizuto Hyūga-a teammate of Izumi Uchiha was currently inside of the Konohagakure hospital. He sat on a chair within the hallways outside of the hospital room that Izumi Uchiha was hospitalized in. He clasped his hands together and planted his feet onto the floor. Silently praying that Izumi would be okay.
"Thirty-six and a half hours have passed, since the Uchiha Clan had been tragically attacked. Well, mostly. There were only two confirmed survivors from that night. My teammate and friend, Izumi. And another boy, named Sasuke Uchiha. Whom happens to be Itachi's own younger brother. Within the first twenty-four hours... News of the Uchiha Clan massacre had spread across Konoha like a wildfire. And I believe that word will spread and reach every corner of the Land of Fire, really soon. It was reported that Itachi Uchiha was solely responsible for the Uchiha Clan Massacre. But I know the truth. I knew that he didn't do it, alone."
Mizuto had suddenly thought of the orange striped mask that the mysterious Masked Man had worn.
"That masked man. I couldn't stop thinking of about him after he threatened to kill Izumi. Right in front of me."
"Tch!" Mizuto had lowered his head and clinched his teeth in anger as he thought of the Masked Man.
"I didn't go to the authorities and tell them what really happened. Because, I was not only afraid for my own safety... but for my own Clan and Izumi's safety as well."
Suddenly, the door to Izumi's hospital room had cracked open.
Mizuto had suddenly snapped out of a trans when he heard the door open. He looked to his right to see the door to Izumi Uchiha's hospital room opening. He waited for the hospital door to fully open for a moment. And it did. Suddenly, a tall man standing at six feet and three inches had dressed in a Konoha Jonin outfit, such as a pair of blue pants, a pair of blue Shinobi sandals, a blue long-sleeved shirt and a blue Konoha headband tied around his head, and a green Konohagakure flak jacket on his shoulders. He had short spiky black ponytail that goes down his back, a pair of burgundy eyes and dark facial hair that makes up a mustache and a short chin beard. His name was Tōji Uehara.
Tōji had walked out of Izumi's hospital and spoke to the nurse named Kaori that was inside of Izumi's hospital room. "Thank you very much."
Kaori had smiled and closed the door behind her.
"That is my sensei. Tōji Uehara. He has taken a total of six S-Rank mission's throughout his career. He's also a family man and a bit of a smoker. His wife makes him smoke outside of their home, because she doesn't want their kids to get sick."
Mizuto had quickly ran to his sensei. "T-Toji-sensei!" Mizuto had called.
"Hm?" Tōji had looked into the direction of Mizuto and saw that his student had approached him. "Oh? Mizuto." He said in an unexpected tone.
"H-how is Izumi-chan? Is she okay?" Mizuto asked Toji in a worried tone.
Tōji had sighed in front of Mizuto. "She's going to be okay. She awake, but is still recovering from a light concussion." Tōji had stated.
Mizuto had gained a look of relief on his face. "Oh. I'm happy that she's alive."
"So am I and Hana." Tōji said.
"Then, is it okay if I go-"
"I'm afraid not." Tōji had shook his head no. Cutting Mizuto off.
Mizuto had frowned after being denied. "What's wrong?"
"The doctors don't think it would be a good idea that anyone come and see her right now-during her time of grieving." Tōji had told Mizuto.
"Oh. Then, do you know when is a good time?" Mizuto asked.
Tōji had sighed. "To be honest, I don't think it would be any time, sooner. She had just lost her Clan-and it's taking her a bit longer to process the loss of her Clansmen. I was only able to convince the doctors to let myself see her, because I'm still her sensei. If I had the choice, I would let you and Hana visit her as much as you want." Tōji had informed Mizuto.
"I get it, sensei." Mizuto said in a depressed tone. "So, what do we do now?" Mizuto had asked Tōji.
"Right now, all we can do is pray for Izumi and that no one else pursues her, also." Tōji said after placing his right arm on Mizuto's left shoulder.
"Right." Mizuto had nodded to his sensei.
Four Days Later...
Within the Konohagakure cemetery... a majority of Konoha Shinobi and civilians alike had attended the funeral for the Uchiha Clan. They had all worn black clothing to mourn the dead. Many people had mixed feelings about the Uchiha CLan, before the massacre. There were people that hated the Clan for its brutality and how it was absent during the Kyubi attack... there were those that liked the Clan for its years of service of Konoha... Others had neutral feelings and saw the Uchiha as family to the village. Some people cried for the Uchiha's loss. It was eleven in the morning. The entire sky had been covered by dark gray clouds. The weather had been a bit windy-almost as if it was about to storm.
Mizuto Hyuuga, Hana Inuzuka and Toji Uehara had attended the funeral out of respect for all that the Uchiha had done. And for respect for Izumi Uchiha.
"Four days after the majority of Uchiha Clan had been wiped out by Itachi Uchiha-or so to be believed... the Sandaime Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi had held a funeral service for all of the Uchiha men, women and even children that had been killed a few nights ago."
Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Sandaime Hokage had worn his Hokage outfit and stood in front of the Will of Fire statue. He stared at the statue for a few minutes without blinking. Until he decided to close his eyes. "Many lives were lost. Including, the head of the Uchiha Clan... Fugaku. And his wife, Mikoto. The facts behind the incident are unknown. But for the time being, let's just mourn the loss of our comrades and remember them for what they have done for Konoha." Hiruzen said as he silently mourned the loss.
Everyone whom had attended the funeral had closed their eyes and mourned.
Mizuto had frowned, before closing his eyes.
"I felt very sorry for all the innocent Uchiha that had their innocent lives taken from them. They didn't do anything wrong. But still... I felt sorry for Izumi and Sasuke. They have to live with the fact that they are two of the last living Uchihas, left."
Meanwhile...
A seven-year-old Sasuke Uchiha had stood in front of the front gates of the now restricted Uchiha compound. It had been wrapped with tape with words on it, such as "Forbidden" and "Do Not Cross." He glared toward the gate as he remembered the night of the Uchiha Massacre. He then thought of Itachi Uchiha and what he said. "Flee to your pathetic life. Come back to me, when you finally awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan." Those words said by Itachi had echoed through Sasuke's mind after he had fully recovered from his injuries. He had then activated his two tomoe Sharingan. Sasuke had slowly walked toward the gates of the Uchiha Compound and begun trespassing inside his old compound.
'Just you wait, Itachi. I will attain the Mangekyō Sharingan. And I will defeat you!' Sasuke had thought, feeling anger.
Meanwhile...
Within a Konoha hospital room... Izumi Uchiha was currently sitting a hospital bed, alone. She was awake and she had sat up in it. She had worn a light green hospital gown and white bandages wrapped around her head. Izumi had looked really depressed. 'So, it's true. Itachi did do...'
Flashback
One day prior... Izumi had been approached by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Sandaime Hokage in the hospital room. He had taken his hat off his head and held it over his chest in front of Izumi.
"I'm sorry, my dear. But, I'm afraid that your Clan had been slaughtered by Itachi Uchiha." Hiruzen said in a serious tone. Part of him had felt sad.
End Flashback
'So, it's true. Itachi did...' Izumi had sniffled as she sat in the hospital bed. 'But... why? Why would Itachi...? Mom... my friends... all gone.' Izumi Uchiha had gripped the sheets as hard as she could. Tears of sadness had streamed down her face as she was absorbing the reality of her Clan. 'It's not fair... it's not fair...' Izumi had suddenly gasped when her pair of red Sharingan had suddenly activated. And within the next ten seconds... Izumi Uchiha's Sharingan had suddenly evolved into something greater, automatically. The Mangekyō Sharingan. The shape of Izumi Uchiha's Mangekyō Sharingan had resembled a five petal cherry blossom flower. With the pupil black and the flower pattern being red.
"Wha... what is this?" Izumi asked herself as she had noticed her Sharingan had suddenly change to a different pattern.
Izumi has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. What do you think her abilities will be?
