Third Person POV:

Dexter arrived at the Hiraishin Kunai, that was positioned in an alley of the Uchiha district, and immediately hid in the shadows.

°So, how do you plan to do this?°, asked Kurama.

°I will create a few Shadow Clones, henge them into mice and then use the shared vision of the Rinnegan to search for enemies°, answered Dexter while simultaneously executing his plan.

°Why do you think there will be others? Wasn't the whole Uchiha massacre an Itachi and Obito only thing?°, she asked.

°That was in the anime. The Uchiha clan has nearly 50 members. Two people can kill them, but not if some of them want to flee or seek help from the remaining village. The district might be at the outskirts of Konoha, but at least half of the Uchiha were Ninja once in their life. There is no logical way that Itachi and Obito managed to find and kill every single Uchiha without some of them fleeing or hiding.

The Sharingan may be a strong Döjutsu, but it hasn't the ability to see through things.

I suspect that a Hyuuga is part of Danzo's ROOT and is acting as the sentry.

And how do you think got Danzo the Sharingan eyes? They would have turned bad if he took them only after the village found the dead°, elaborated Dexter and also Henged into a mice.

He and thirty Shadow Clones began to move. Dexter already knows the houses of his targets. It was late mid-day and the massacre should be starting soon or have already started.

It didn't take long for him to reach the first house.

°Seems like you were right, there are at least three squads of ROOT Ninja. They are surrounding the district. Itachi and Obito also arrived°, said Kurama. She was watching over each point of view. This shared work made it easier for Dexter to concentrate on his own vision.

And true to her word, Dexter saw 12 ROOT Anbu when he concentrated on his clones. They took position at places with a good view and waited for Itachi to make his move.

°I can't see the Hyuuga, can you?°, asked Dexter.

°No, their masks make it impossible to see the eyes or bulging veins of the Byakugan°, said Kurama.

°Seems like we have to wait for one of them to act suspicious. We can't kill them as it would point them at a third party. It's best if they think that this was unnoticed by anyone else°, said Dexter. He then walked up the front of the house and slipped into the room of the child through an open window.

His target, a one year old girl, was sleeping in a crib and was quickly attached with a Hiraishin seal. The baby vanished in a flash of yellow and the crib remained empty.

°One of the ROOT Anbu reacted the moment the baby vanished. Two of them are closing in on this position°, warned Kurama.

°So we found our Hyuuga°, was Dexter's only comment. He didn't wait for them to reach and possibly find him. He quickly left with a smokeless Kawarimi and watched the two Ninja from a nearby clone.

They were looking down on the empty crib. None of them said a word, but they were using hand signs. Sadly, these weren't the standard Konoha sign language. So Dexter wasn't able to listen in on their conversation.

°You have to move, Itachi killed his first victim. An old couple°, said Kurama. Dexter listened and run to his next target. This time it was a boy of two years. This one was also easily send away. The boy was in his room and was also sleeping, seems like it's common for children of that age to sleep in the late afternoon.

And again the two ROOT Anbu rushed at his location. This time they had their weapons drawn and arrived in a battle ready position. However, Dexter was long gone.

°A few Uchiha saw Itachi killing a teenage girl. Two engaged in a fight and a third tried to run. She managed to escape from Itachi, but were cut down the moment she tried to seek help from one of the ROOT Ninja°, informed Kurama.

°Then we have to be faster. There will be more,° said Dexter and increased his speed. His tiny mice feet were almost flying over the ground. But he had to stay at a natural pace. The Hyuuga is probably watching each and every moving thing in this district.

His third target was a little more problematic, it was a girl of not even a year. She was with her mother, who was breast-feeding her.

°Are you seriously going to take her daughter away at this moment?°, asked Kurama. While she isn't a true woman, she still has some morale.

°What else should I do?°, asked Dexter dryly.

°Hmm, push a vase off of a desk. This might make her put the baby down. You can then tag her. Or wait for Itachi to arrive. He's in the same street and should reach this house in a few moments°, said Kurama.

°Good idea, I'll use the vase. Itachi might kill both of them in one attack°, said Dexter in accordance. He climbed on the sink in the kitchen and pushed a plate down. The plate shattered and the loud crash startled the woman.

“What was that?”, she asked out loud and looked down at her baby.

“I'm sorry Hina-chan, but I have interrupt your meal”, she said in a motherly tone and put the baby away. Hina wined a little bit at this disturbance, but quickly went quiet the moment she got a pacifier showed in her mouth.

The woman then gently laid Hina down on a makeshift bed of fluffy blankets and walked inside the kitchen. Dexter run up to the girl. Hina saw the mice and giggled at the sight. Her tiny hands reached out to grab the furry thing but missed it.

This infuriated her and she let out an angry wail.

“Don't be angry Hina-chan, I'll continue to feed you in a moment. Somehow a plate fell down. I'll just clean this up and then give you the rest of your meal”, said the mother from the kitchen.

Dexter jumped on Hina's small arm and applied the seal. A quick Chakra infusion later and Hina vanished.

“Okay, let's give you the rest of your meal”, came from behind Dexter. Apparently the mother finished with the clean up and was back in the living room.

“Hina-chan?”, she asked a little panicked when she didn't find her baby where she left her. Dexter hid under a nearby cabinet.

“Hina-chan? Please, this isn't funny”, said the mother now clearly frightened.

Itachi choose this moment to walk inside the house. The mother saw him and rushed at him. Panic was visible in her eyes.

“Itachi-kun, someone stole Hi...argh!”, she tried to seek help from him. But Itachi stabbed her with his sword and her last words were contorted in a pained cry. She looked down at the wound in her heart and then up at Itachi. Itachi on his side stared at her with emotionless eyes.

“Why?”, managed the mother to say before Itachi pulled the sword out of her. She fell down and her now tear stained face was forever contorted in an expression of pain and sorrow.

°This is sad°, said Kurama suddenly.

°I thought you're hating the Uchiha for controlling you?°, replied Dexter. He too didn't like to take a daughter away from her mother. But it wasn't possible to save the mother as well. She was one of the hard-line supporters of Fukaku.

°I do, but no mother should live through such a thing°, she said quietly.

“So someone took Hina. I knew that Danzo wasn't going to let everyone die. He's too focused on the so called strength of Konoha to let a clan like the Uchiha die out”, said Itachi emotionless. His gaze flew over the room and then left as quietly as he came. Continuing with his self imposed mission.

°The next target°, informed Kurama and Dexter also left. Now the only reminder of what happened was the dead woman, who laid in her own blood and tears.

°No wonder Sasuke went crazy. He lived through this for 72 hours. Seeing the death of his family again and again°, said Dexter on his way. Bodies were now littering the ground. Old, young, women and men. All of them were slain in the name of peace.

°Yeah, you think we should befriend him?°, asked Kurama.

°No way, he will only try to use us as a means to gain strength. I can accept to use your enemies or other people to archive your goal. But I would never use my friends in a way he did in the anime°, denied Dexter strongly.

°The next target is hidden under the floor in the house. His parents hid him and are now trying to keep Obito away from the house. The father is already wounded on his leg°, said Kurama and turned the topic back on track. She doesn't feel anything for Sasuke or what he will become. Kurama only cared about Dexter and a little bit about her siblings. And even they weren't really high in her list.

°Then let's take this opportunity°, replied Dexter. He run into the house and used his paws to lift the board that hid the child.

The boy looked up at the mouse and began to say something. However, Dexter quickly pawed his forehead and the child was gone.

°Quick, the two ROOT Ninja are coming. It looks like they have some brain and connected the fact that a mice is always near the vanishing children. They already killed three of your clones°, warned Kurama and used another Kawarimi with a stone to flee.

°The last child is near Obito. He will soon reach her°, urged Kurama.

°Dammit, seems like I can't stay unnoticed any longer°, replied Dexter. He increased his speed and was now almost flying over the street. The Hyuuga also saw the suddenly way faster than normal mice and pursued it.

Dexter arrived at his destination and saw Obito striking down at a father who had a girl of two years in his arms. The father turned around to shield the child with his body and was struck at his back. Blood gushed out of the large wound and the man grunted in pain. But he didn't let go of his child and tried to flee, only to get his hamstrings cut apart. He fell down but rotated in such a way that he didn't land on the girl.

“Did you really think you could flee from me?”, mocked Obito.

°This world is truly a dark place°, said Kurama sadly. The man was locking up at Obito, hate on Obito but also fear for his daughter were visible in his eyes.

“Traitor, why are you doing this?”, he asked and pushed the crying girl behind his back. Away from Obito.

“Traitor? Me? You are the real traitors. YOU'VE BETRAYED MADARA!”, shouted Obito in rage.

Dexter used this conversation to sneak behind the man and up to him.

“Madara is dead”, countered the man. Obito began to chuckle and then laughed loudly.

“Dead? Madara isn't dead. I am Madara!”, he shouted and raised his sword to stab the man and with him his daughter that he was hiding behind him.

Dexter saw his intentions and jumped at the girl. He reached her at the same time as the sword reached the man and applied the seal as fast as he could. Sadly it seems like he wasn't fast enough as he saw the pained expression of the girl before she vanished.

°You have to leave quickly. The angle from which Obito attacked is sure to hit something important°, said Kurama hurriedly.

“What the? That was the Hiraishin!”, shouted Obito. He quickly kicked the now dead man away and saw the mice looking up at him.

“A mice?”, he said in disbelieve.

“Fuck you!”, said Dexter before also teleporting away in a yellow flash.

“Shit! Someone knew of this mission! FUCK!”, shouted Obito enraged. The two ROOT Ninja now also reached his destination.

“Madara, there is someone that used a Jutsu to turn into a mice. My Byakugan isn't able to see through the Jutsu. He or she kidnapped five children. All of them were younger than two”, informed the Hyuuga in an emotionless tone.

Obito roared in rage and beheaded the informant in his rage.

The other ROOT Ninja looked down at his dead comrade, but didn't move to avenge him. Danzo ordered to follow this person and do what he orders. The death of his comrade wasn't something that would move him to go against Danzo's order.

“Someone is planning to keep the Uchiha clan alive!”, raged Obito. He then stormed to the next house and killed its inhabitants in his most brutal way.

This could make a serious dent in his plans. A third party that knew of this mission can't be left ignored.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile in Itachi's home;

Itachi already killed his father and was now staring down at the neck of his mother. Madara thankfully killed Izumi for him.

“Who are you?”, he then asked in his usual stoic and emotionless voice.

“I'm your mother Itachi. And I understand why you did what you did”, replied the clone.

“No you are not. My mother wouldn't act like you. You are good, but you can't fool me”, replied Itachi.

“I don't....”, began the clone but was interrupted by Sasuke who ran inside.

“Mother!”, he shouted with teary eyes.

This wasn't what Itachi planned. He knew that his mother understands why he was doing this. But this fake did something with her and whatever it was, it wasn't something he wanted.

And now the arrival of his little brother made it impossible to interrogate this imposter. He had to act fast and continue with his plan, even if it makes it impossible to gain Intel about this third party.

The strange thing is, that he couldn't see any Henge or Genjutsu on his mother. This fake looked exactly like his mother. The voice, smell and form was exactly the same.

He sighed mentally and pushed the blade through the spine and out of the throat of his fake mother.

His little brother cried out on shock and fell down on his back.

“Brother? Why?”, he asked with a shaky voice.

Now this part was something that Itachi hated the most. He had to influence his brother to hunt him down and clean the name of the Uchiha by killing his own brother. Itachi put Sasuke under the Tsukuyomi and let him watch the whole massacre for 72 hours.

“Why? Foolish little brother, I did this to test my capacity. If you want to avenge the Uchiha then get stronger. Hate me and use this hate to gain strength. Only that way are you able to possibly kill me. So hate me, or hide. Hide like the weak child you truly are.

As of now your eyes are too weak. You can awake the same eyes as me, but there is a requirement for that. And that is to kill your best friend”, said Itachi to his crying brother. He then put another Genjutsu on him and left the Uchiha district.

His new live as a spy in Akatsuki was now beginning.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With Dexter;

He materialised near the still crying girl and now saw the wound she received from Obito. His blade cut into her spine and she would have been crippled for live if there wasn't Dexter's ability to heal any wound.

“What happened to her?!”, demanded Tsunade to know. She was at the orphanage in case something like this happens.

“Obito cut through her father into her back. I'm going to use my [Flames of Healing], any other medical Jutsu might not be able to heal such a wound”, answered Dexter and his eternal Mangekyou-Sharingan spun into live.

He focused on the wound and white flames began to burn on it. The nearby orphanage patron jumped in shock at the sight of the flames and tried to put them out, but Tsunade retrained her.

“Don't worry, that is a Jutsu of Dexter, it will heal her”, she said to calm her down and the woman stopped to move, but not to eye the flames warily.

The wound quickly began to close and the girl stopped crying shortly after. She was asleep when the flames extinguished. The whole healing process is not only tiresome for the caster, but also for the healed person.

“She's going to be fine. Miss Vira, please take care of them for me. I have to get rest. This Jutsu is highly Chakra consuming and it only gets higher the heavier the wound is”, said Dexter and the patron nodded before picking the sleeping girl up.

“Where are mom and Mikoto?”, Dexter then asked. One use of this Jutsu used 15 % of his Chakra reserves. This amount might not seem like much, but it is comparable to the Chakra of three Kages.

“They are in your living room. Mikoto is filling Kushina in on the things that happened after her death”, answered Tsunade.

“You have to rest, I know how tired you get after using this Jutsu”, she added with a doctor tone.

“Yes yes”, said Dexter dismissively and earned a bonk to the head.

“I mean it,” said Tsunade sternly before going back to the children. She has to give them a check in.

“Always so meddlesome”, mumbled Dexter. He then walked to his mansion and greeted some late stragglers and people who were going out.

He was the Uzukage and people were respecting and admiring him for the things he did. Some even started to revering him as a god for his ability to bring back the dead. This concept was quickly quenched. He didn't want to be a god again. That got boring after a few decades. Thankfully the people accepted that it was only a Jutsu, admittedly a rare and really hard to master Jutsu, but still a Jutsu.

He reached his mansion and was greeted by the sound of two laughing women.

“Mom, I'm back. Most things went perfect”, said Dexter from inside the entrance.

“We're in the living room”, came from inside and Dexter walked to them.

Kushina and Mikoto were on the couch and drunk. A few bottles of empty sake stood on the table.

“Hello son, howtcha go?”, asked Kushina with a red face.

“Good, I saved all five. Two boys and three girls. Tsunade-baachan is giving them a check up. Why are you drunk?”, replied Dexter.

“One thing let to the otcher and we kincha found Baachan's supply”, said Kushina and motioned to the bottles. Her swing went to wide and she fell sideways into Mikoto.

“I want to schee my schon”, said Mikoto in a drunken fit of depression.

“Oh and Mi-chan ish depred...deprech...sad”, said Kushina who tried to get off of Mikoto's breasts.

“I can see that. Well, I don't want to disturb you any longer. Have a nice night, I'm going to sleep”, said Dexter and left before anything could get out of hand. A drunken Kushina isn't something that he wants to witness. The last time she was drunk she embarrassed him by telling him exactly how it felt to give birth.

He's going to let Tsunade handle the aftermath. She and Daichi are doing most of his work when he's not around. So a little bit more won't matter right?
