The Uchiha Massacre part 1~

(Mikoto) "Fugaku this is a bad idea, to plan a coup like this we will never be able to overthrow konoha, our clan has over 600 hundred ninja, but its not enough, it will never be enough, even with the sharingan"

(Fugaku) "ENOUGH, even with our numbers it can be possible, you should know with the mangekyou sharingan at our side we can kidnapp the two containers and take control of the kyuubi with our eyes, but the kyuubi is divided in yin and yang, so i need your help in controlling the yin part, while i control the yang, with the power of the nine tails we can win this, we are descendants of the sage, and we are being treated like tools to be discarded by the higher ups in the village, more and more suicide missions, our clan will be no more in a few years if we continue like this!" the man said, while facing a woman in her mid thirties, black raven hair, with red eyes with an elipse like pattern on her pupils signifying the magekyou sharingan.

(Fugaku)"Are you with me?" the same man asked, with an average heigh and dark brown hair, with the same red eyes, but the patterns were different.

(Mikoto)" I-i" 'they are my godchildren, you already bloacked any attemps for me to contact and adopt them, now this?'

(Fugaku)"You don't have to decide now, i will give you two weeks, then at the end of the month we will start the coup" he walked towards the door and left.

(Mikoto) "Kushina, what would you do? why did you give me these cursed eyes? why did you have to die?" some tears fell in her lap, she wiped her tears 'I can't think like this sasuke will be arriving from the academy soon i need to prepare dinner' she lifted herself up and left the room.

both man and woman didn't notice, a little hole in the cealing where an eye with nine concentric rings and nine tomoes colored a royal purple was watching

(Narumi)[huh so she is our godmother, i had my doubts, well it seems the massacre will happen in the end of the week, if everything goes according to plan, history will change i will make sure of it onii-chan]

(Naruto)[Yes, we will imouto, it seems Danzo is moving as expected, he already has the arm with the face of the shodai hokage, he will attack shisui in three days]

(Narumi)[Danzo, after this you will no longer be useful for me, after this i will be coming for your head]

~~three days later~~

Mikoto was returning home, with groceries to make lunch for her family, when she saw a hint of an unusually colored hair, she didn't know what possessed her to follow it, but she did, it led her to the slum part of the village, where at the center was a little girl, she had a sunset colored hair and was cooking stew in a giant pot, around her were man and woman, holding plates, waiting patiently.

(mikoto)'Homeless people, she is feeding homeless people, but why? is this your daughter Kushina?' right then a tomboyish girl with red hair replaced the girl inthe middle of the slums, Mikoto widened her eyes, then thought 'i already have my answer Fugaku' she then left for her home.

~~Narumi pov~~

(Narumi)"hai, here we go~" i handed two plates of stew to a woman and a child

"arigatou Narumi-chan"

"Arigatou onee-chan"

(Narumi)"You're welcome, hai next one please" 'With the death of the old council and the mafia branch here in konoha, the crime rates have been diminishing rapidly, and with me helping the homeless, and poor, and with naruto theaching them basic knowledge like reading and writing, basic math, history and geography, we will be able to employ them in the future whe we make our own bussiness, therefore we wil be able to erase most of the internal conflics after the massacre, now its time for for the joker to make its debut'.

~~A few hours later ~~

(Naruto)'Even so she's really dedicated into making this world a better place, although it seems small she is making definite changes in history, for example most of the council she has killed, were directly involved in the mafia, grr.. the fire country mafia is really bad news, assasinations,extortions, stealing, blackmail, drug trading, weapon trading, and the worst of all slave trading, i still can't believe they were managing those slave rings, and if its one thing Narumi hates is slavery' he though this as he was walking home holding hands with his little sister.

'Tonight is the day where Shisui Uchiha dies, mother's prized student, not if we have a say in it'

~~Near the nakano river~~

(Shisui)" saa itachi hokage-sama and the elders are waiting for us, lets not keep them waiting any longer" 'hopefully with my kotoamatsukami we will be able to reach a peaceful conclusion, now if only sarutobi-sama would let go of his hatred'

(Itachi)"lets go shisui"

(Shisui)'Eight years ago after the kyuubi attack Kushina-sensei confirmed it was an uchiha who attacked her and ripped the kyuubi right out of her seal, since then Sarutobi-sama has held our clan in suspicion, and started discriminating our clan, well after all, his wife was killed by this masked man prior to the attack but even if there are no recorded uchiha as a missing-nin, i don't believe someone in our clan currently living in konoha is responsible, after this i hope the sandaime forget his grudges, but that's wishfull thinking on my part, at least the other elders, koharu and homura, are more peaceful and wouldn't want bloodshed, the problem is Danzo' Sigh.

On a room underground in konoha 6 people were present, the two kneeling were shisui and itachi, while the ones sitted were those who held the highest positions in power the hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the elders, Koharu, Homura and Danzo, currently Shisui was explaining his plan to the hokage

(Shisui)"... and so i will use kotoamatsukami on the clan tonight in the meeting, with this they will stop trying to revolt, that's my plan"

(Sarutobi)"What a powerful genjutsu technique with this the coup will be over, biwako what would you do? Hah you wouldn't want me wallowing in grief while i try to point fingers where there is nothing huh i've decided' "Let's make a vote, of who is is in accordance to this nod their heads" two nods from koharu and homura 'as expected Danzo wants total annihilation from the clan' "Shisui you are to go and use kotoamatsukami on your clan this will be an s-rank mission"

Danzo grit his teeth

(Danzo)'Hiruzen can't you see that his eye is too much important to be used like this, the kotoamatsukami is whats precious, even if you would quench the coup now they will surely try again given time xan't you see this, i must have those eyes of yours shisui, i will make better use of them'.

Shisui was traveling through the forest to meet itachi near the nakano river.

(Shisui)"tch i am being followed"

Just then a flurry of kunai went flyng to his position forcing him to drop on a clearing, he unsheathed his tanto and prepared for an attack, just then 50 men arrived in the clearing, all of them in anbu styled clothing with a blank mask with the symbol of root in it, all of them poised to attack

(Shisui)'this is bad'

Just then the sound of a cane was heard and an old bandaged man came into the clearing he walked and stopped right in front of shisui

(Shisui)"Danzo-sama wha-"

Danzo)"Your kotoamatsukami is too important for konoha, to be used on the uchiha clan, especially when they will try again later on, isn't that right? So i will keep your eyes safe with me" he then started reaching towards shisui's eyes, just then shisui grabbed his hand and his normal charcoal eyes turned red with three tomoes and put the elder in a genjutsu, the old war hawk dropped to the ground

(Shisui)"gomen" just then, shisui recieved a punch that knocked out the air in his lungs, and made him spit in the ground, a hand came towards his right eye and ripped it out of the socket, spilling blood in the air, shisui regained his bearing put his hands on the face to stop the flow of blood he then looked up and saw Danzo standing there like nothing happened, the one in the ground dissapeared like a mirage.

(Shisui)'A bunshin, no the sharingan would recognize if it was used, so what happened?'

(Danzo)" it seems you are unable to comprehend what happened, let me show you" he showed his right eye, that was underneath his many bandages, the eye shone red with three tomoe, then in a few seconds turned white, signifying blindness.

(Shisui)'Sharingan? So thats how, the only techniques recorded on our clan that cause instant blindness is izanagi and it's counterpart izanami, so that must be izanagi, putting a genjutsu in yourself, the time varies from person to person, but it is usually 60 seconds, and in those seconds the person can alter their reality as they wish, erasing wounds and unfavorable events like it never happened, like an illusion i need to get out of here'.

(Danzo)"I tire of this ROOT capture his left eyes" just then he walked out of the clearing while the 50 ninjas prepared to attack him, they launched various kunais that completely surrounded him but he did some handsigns

(Shisui)"shunshin no jutsu" he dissapeared, and in his location various afterimages were there in his place and they started attacking and cutting down the ROOT-nins at impressive speeds, meanwhile the real shisui was escaping towards the meeting point that he and itachi combined, in the hill on top of nakano river, but 5 remaining ninjas were still on his trail, he did a back flip, three handsigns then

(Shisui)"fire release:great ball of flames" a great fireball spewed from his mouth but was easily countered by the five ninja's water attack, the hot steam released made him drop in a clearing full of grass, he was panting, injured and tired, just then another flurry of kunais came and hit his location, the five ninjas jumped in the clearing to confirm their kill, the dust settled and an ethreal warrior, green colored with a tengu mask and what it looked like a great fire was in his belly, shisui was being protected by it and he lifted his head showing that his remaining eye changed into an elipsed pattern.

(Shisui)"Im not done yet" a little gasp was all that was heard from them before countless little grenn projectiles launched from the belly of the warrior killing them.

He deactivated the sussano'o and panted even harder

(Shisui)" hah .. hah.. i need to meet itachi" he then left the clearing.

In a hill looking over a river itachi waited patiently for his partner to arrive

(Shisui)"I-itachi hah.." itachi then turned around and saw the figure of a battered shisui without his right eye

(Itachi)"shisui what happened to you"

(Shisui)"No time to explain, suffice to say danzo wanted my eyes, and went to extreme methods to acquire it, itachi i need you to promise me something, no matter what happens, the uchiha clan must ve stopped, konoha can't survive being in another war, right now the village security is the most important thing, just don't trust Danzo anymore, please keep my eyes safe for me, this one needs to be kept safe, also i prepared a suicide note just in case" i then handed my note to him and then ripped my left eye and handed to him.

(Shisui)"sayonara, my friend" i then jumped from the hill towards the river, and awaited death .. after that everything went black.

(Itachi)"SHISUI!" I reached towards him but it was to late, my eyes started to bleed, and an elipse shape formed in my poupil resmbling a three pointed shuriken, just then i sensed someone coming to the clearing, it was a man wearing a cape that covered him from head to toe and in his face was a mask that resembled the joker card from poker, i widened my eyes in realization that this was the murderer that put all thoses smile faces when he killed someone.

(Itachi)"what do you want here murderer?" He didn't receive an answer "if you are not going to answer then i will force you, my best friend just died, i am pretty mad right now" he took the tanto of his sheath and then charged towards the joker.

(Itachi) "hah.. hah what are you?" Itachi asked while panting hard form exaustion and pain the landscape around them was destroyed, with various craters littered around the forest burning with a black flame and itachi had an orange aura currently dissipating, signifying that he just used his sussano'o and couldn't hold anymore.

(Itachi)'Nothing worked, my taijutsu was completely ineffective and got me a few broken ribs, my fire ninjutsu was completely blocked by his water ones, his gejutsu his strongest point was completely ineffective, his newly acquired mangekyou was useless as well, his amaterasu just bounced off, his tsukuyomi didn't work and his sussano'o even equipped with yata mirror and the totsuka blade was shattered easily 'how could he grab the sakegiri without being sealed, he shattered my sussano like the shield wasn't even there, i am supposed to be s-ranked here, does this mean that he is even above, impossible there was only 4 recorded ninja who were recognized as ss-rank, hashirama, madara, minato and kushina, and he is neither of them, he is even stronger than that madara imposter' he panted more.

(Naruto)"this is boring" he said in a clearly modified voice, just then hundreds of black bones came out of his back, the bones had an unique color that resembled a statred night sky, then those bones were launched in his direction at great speed.

(Itachi)' so fast, can i dodge... impossible, can i do a repacement.. no i don't even have chakra left .. can i block them.. i don't even have weapons anymore, all of them are littered in the ground .. I' ll die!" The first bones started piercing his feet, legs, thighs, kidneys, stomach, liver, lungs, heart, neck and then finally his head, he resembled a porcupine with how many bones litteredhis body 'sorry sasuke it seems that i will not be able to complete my promise of training you tomorrow to beat naruto, sorry shisui this is as far as i go it seems' amongst all the blood you could see some tears spilling out of the 14 year old anbu captain and a mortified expression as he started closing his, just then the world breaked like a glass pane, itachi returned standing, all of the damage done wasn't even there they were in their original position when the fight started, the diference was that in the hands of the joker was a glass with preservation liquid, and floating inside were 2 eyeballs with crimson irises with a pattern similar a four pointed shuriken.

Itachi then started to breathe rapidly to fill his lung witch were previously filled with blood he then started dropping in the ground in extreme exaustion his last thoughs before he blacked out were

(Itachi)'to put me in a genjutsu... so easily.. and i never.. noticed... i can't believe... this.. sorry shisui it seems.. i wasn't able to protect your eyes ... dammit..' the masked joker came down from the tree he was standing then inspected itachi's health.

(Naruto)'hmm it seems he has already contracted his lung disease that killed him in canon, but its nothing i could not fix' a strong green light filled the forest as he healed itachi, he then carried him to the uchiha coumpound and dropped him on his bed, a teal light shone through his mask aa he looked one last time at the sleeping figure of itachi and then he dissapeared in a rip in space originated through his eyes.

Itachi opened his euyes to see the familiar ceiling of his room.

(Itachi)'what happened, was the events of last night real?'the door opened and sasuke entered.

(Sasuke)"nii-san mother told me to wake you up, she said it was weird for you to wake up this late, hey you promised to train me today so that i could beat that naruto kid, father is pretty dissapointed in me that i can't beat that kid in anything-"

(Itachi)"hai sasuke, one thing at a time, and i haven't forgotten our promise"

(Sasuke)"yatta!, maybe if i defeat her brother, narumi will finally notice me." He said in a hopeful tone.

(Itachi)"haha it seems that outoto finally has a crush" in a teasing tone.

(Sasuke)"d-dont tease me" he said red faced.

(Itachi)"then let's go eat breakfast "

(Sasuke)"nii-san i already ate, i am leaving for the academy now"

(Itachi)"oh so don't let me keep you, just go and focus, you are a proud uchiha member, if you pay attention to your teachers and train hard enouth, there's none you can't beat"

(Sasuke)"hai i will"he then left the room.

Itachi sighed, and got out of bed, he then put more casual clothing as he was still wearing his anbu uniform, he then went towards the kitchen where his mother was waiting, she had a tired expression and rings under her eyes there was a plate of food freshly prepared for him.

(Mikoto)"Itachi .. why did you return so late last night.. normaly you arrive early.. but i was waiting until 3 a.m for you and you didn't arrive, i fell asleep on the couch... mou don't make me worry so... you are such a handful sometimes.. but i love you.. and i wouldn't trade you for anything". She then dozed off on the chair showing how much she lost sleep

Itachi widened his eyes at her statment, then chuckled a bit he picked his mother gently in bridal style then carried her to her bed he put a blanket over her, then let a rare genuine smile as he looked at her.

(Itachi)'Shisui, i might have failed to protect your eyes, but i won't fail to protect my clan, even if my brother and mother end up hating me, even if i have to sacrife my future'
