Back To The Past

Sasuke Uchiha

Sasuke POV
-gasps-

I looked around, My childhood room.
I slowly got out of my bed, before I realized how small I was.
As I started to put my feet down, I swayed, almost falling. I'm going to have to get used to this body.
My body was shivering, I grabbed a cover off my bed and started walking towards the exit of my room.
I peaked my head out of the door and looked both ways, it was pretty dark, it was quiet too.
Hn, I still remember these creaky floors
I tiptoed out
I found the bathroom and stepped in, closing the door behind me.
I flipped the switch and a dim light flickered on, I winced, not used to the bright light since electricity was one of the things we lost first in the war.
Only the top of my head showed in the mirror, I sighed.
I moved out the bathroom,
I should wait till the morning to go see Naruto and Shikamaru.

Shikamaru POV

I woke up panting and sweating, damn, what a drag.

I'm..so tiny

I looked out my window, it's still dark.
I laid back down and went back to sleep.

Naruto POV

I got up and walked into the bathroom, I flicked the switch and hissed when the lights came alive.

I stepped on a mini stool to look at myself in the mirror, I stared at my war-stricken features, features no child should have. "I have to be at least 6" I mumbled to myself.

"That means the massacre of the Uchiha Clan didn't happen already," I muttered with sorrow lacing my voice.

I stepped down and flicked the switch once again.
I made my way back to my bed, I glanced at the clock
'3:34'
That's a bit early, I laid back down in my bed, I should probably wait till morning

3RD POV

When the clock struck 7 the boys slowly started to get up, Sasuke was the first.

Sasuke POV

Before i walked into the kitchen, I have to keep my emotions in check.
I walked into the kitchen, fake yawning, " Good morning Kaa-San" refusing to look her in the eye
"Good morning Sasuke, go wake your brother for me"
My eyes widened a bit, why was I expecting to avoid him, "Hn".

I took deep breaths, my limbs felt heavier and heavier with each step I took.
I refuse to cry, not here, not now

I stared at his door, slowly lifting my heavy limb-
He beat me to it.

"Oh hey Sasuke, did you come to wake me up?"

I Refuse to cry

I looked up, carefully placing a mask on, that of a 7 year old.
"Hn" I nodded
He smiled, "let's go join Tou-San and Kaa-San for breakfast"

"Ok!" I smiled and gave my eyes a artificial shine.
He walked behind me as we made our way to the kitchen, I continued looking down.
I refuse to cry

I sat down in the seat "itadakimasu" we all said in union.
While eating I asked
"Kaa-San"
"Yes Sasuke?"
"Can I go see Shikamaru?" I requested,
Surprise showed on her features,
"Since when did you become friends with The Nara Clan's Heir?"
Fugaku- Tou-San narrowed his eyes at me.
I faked a gulp implying I was slightly anxious, "have you been sneaking out Sasuke?" Kaa-San suspected,
I didn't know what to do, I was panicking, how am I supposed to know the last time I was out?!
fake panic showed on my face, "N-no! Of c-course not! I met him the last time I was out with Nii-Chan" his eyes narrowed, he knows I'm lying, I gave a pleading look his way. He sighed, "is that true Itachi?" Tou-San asked, Itachi nodded "I'll take him to see him". Kaa-San nodded.

After breakfast I started putting my shoes on, getting ready to see Shikamaru.

Me and Itachi walked out the house and almost instantly, "So wanna tell me why you had me lie to our parents?"
I sighed, looking at the ground, "I only sneaked out once," regret and guilt heavily laced my voice, "and that's when I meant him, he helped me," he looked at me confused, "I was stuck in a tree and he helped me down." I said looking the other way 'embarrassed'
Itachi chuckled, "how did you get stuck in a tree Sasuke?"
"I saw a cat and wanted to help it down"
Itachi smiled, "it's ok, I understand, let's go see your friend."
On the way out of Uchiha district, I spotted Naruto, "Naruto!" I ran from brother and met up with him,
"Hey Teme!" He gave me one of his wide grins.
Itachi walked behind me, "is this one of your other friends" staring at the blonde immediately recognizing him.
"Yea, he was the other person who helped the cat" I gave a smile, completely closing my eyes, looking up at him.
I faced Naruto and gave him a look, 'just go along with it'. "Dattebayo!" he continued smiling, "Naruto me and Itachi-Nii are going to Shikamaru's, let's go together!" I exclaimed with a smile. He snickered, "Ok Teme!" He smiled.
That usuratonkachi, I should rip his arm off for laughing at me.

we arrived at the Nara Clan district, a lot of people were staring, it was rare for a Uchiha to roam in the Nara district especially since the two clan heads didn't favor each other.

Once we reached the clan head's house, Itachi knocked on the door.
We heard mild shuffling on the inside, the door opened, "how can.. how can I help you Uchiha-San"

Itachi bowed slightly, "Nara-San "

All three them greeted "Nara-San may we see Shikamaru-San ?" I politely asked

She stared wide eyed, "Yeah.. hold on, let me go get him...um come in" she stepped aside and held the door open. All three of us walked inside. She walked upstairs, a little after she came down Shikamaru came right behind her.
"Ugh, what a drag"

"Shikamaru!" me and Naruto beamed
