The Fourth

Chapter 1

My story begins with the thirtieth training session with my first sensei Shisui Uchiha. "Okay little kitty. Let's try again, you need to position your hands correctly, or else the jutsu won't work!" He laughed positioning my fingers and hands in a sign. "Now say the jutsu loud and clear!" I sighed and rolled my eyes in utter sarcasm. "TRANSFORMATION ANIMAGI JUTSU!" I yelled, smoke appeared around me and once it cleared I was a small kitten, no bigger than a rock. I turned back in an instant after Shisui Sensei had seen my jutsu work. "Okay, now we should work on defense. You're an ace at jutsu's but if you don't use your fists then who knows what'll happen to you," He pulls out to pads and puts them on his palms. I start kicking and punching left and right, quicker than anyone else can handle.
After a couple more hours of kicking and punching the sun started to set. "Let's call it a day huh little kitten?" I nod and he walks me home where nobody was waiting for me. He said goodnight and left me all alone in my house. "Mom, Dad, I'm home..." I sighed walking upstairs to my room and putting my katana away to the side. I collapsed onto my bed falling asleep immediately next to a shivering black kitten. It curls up against my chest sleeping with me.
The next morning, the paper was thrown into my room from the window. I opened it up and what made me throw it to the side and run out the door was the head line "Uchiha Village Burns. No Survivors Found".  I ran and ran all the way to the village where my Sensei lived as rain poured down. "SHISUI SENSEI!" I yelled slipping on the mud and tears rolling down my eyes. I made it to the village, smoke was rising from the remains and I ran into the burned down village. I searched for Shisui, every inch, every corner I looked. "SHISUI SENSEI. WHERE ARE YOU?!" I yelled, streams of tears running down my eyes. I ran into the last house and found him laying there, his eyes sightless, his body motionless. I fell to my knees next to him, I placed my hands on his shoulders, trying to wake him up. "P-Please! Don't leave me sensei! I have nobody! Please don't leave!!" I whimpered, my tears staining his shirt. I clenched the fabric tightly and cried until I had no tears left. A warm hand touched my shoulder and I looked up to see a boy, long hair, lines underneath his eyes. "W-Who are you? What d-do you want?" I asked stuttering. "Who I am, you will find out soon, but not yet. What I want is to know why you're here crying your eyes out." He responded, straightly but gently. "Someone set a fire, and killed my sensei. I came here to see if he was okay, but turns out he isn't..." I looked back down at Shisui Senseis body (I know Shisui didn't die because of the downfall, don't yell at me). "What will your family say about this? Do they know you're gone?" He asked. "They're in eternal rest. Nobody in my family is alive. Nobody except for Shisui Sensei wanted to take care of me." I sighed getting up and placing the flower that was hidden behind my ear on Shisui's chest. "So, I have nobody now." I ended walking out of the house and into the rain. My ears fell against my head and my tail stopped and brushed against my legs. "Isn't it odd that a little kitten like you is out in the rain?" The A boy asked. A couple tears strolled down my face at the name little kitten. "How old are you little one?" He asked. "I'm only six..." I replied silently. "C'mon I'll take care of you. I may be a couple years older than you, but I can still try," I looked at him and stayed like that for a while until I ran and hugged him around the waist. He patted down my soaked hair and looked down at me. "Okay little one, let's go." He picked me up and settled me on his back, supporting me up by putting his hands on my small legs, I wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my nose into his shoulder. He started to run off, a bit slower than my running, but very fast. "Thank you..." I yawned quietly. "You're welcome little kitten." He smiled and continued running until we reached a treehouse. I sat down on the bed as the boy took out a couple bandages to tend to my small wounds made by the branches. He reminded me of Shisui, and he taught me more than Shisui had. "Thanks Itachi. I appreciate your teachings, and hospitality.".
Soon I found out, his name was Itachi Uchiha. The last Uchiha remaining, I found a survivor of the fire.
