" Itachi! Get up! "Said Itachi's mother through the door.
The called just grunted and turned from one side to the other. His bed was just comfortable, but unless he soon got up, there would be trouble. So he started from the tangle of blanket, pillow and limbs to unravel and then found himself a little later in a sitting position. Itachi beat the blanket aside and stood up, while scratching his head. What was now a day?
The realization came after some thinking, yet he too tired to be excited. Even if he would know in a few hours, who was now his master, the moment he was not care less. Wuschelnd is through his hair, he entered the bathroom and began first to brush his hair. They had the habit of the morning frantically to desist from the head, something that looked at the length of course, very funny. When he was finished, he clapped a little cold water on his face, which aroused his spirits. Back in his room, he pulled his shirt to Uchiha from whom he had hung a few dozen in the closet and a short black pants. Then he added the Kunaihalter and finally he reached for his headband.
his headband. That sounded good.
Itachi looked at himself in the mirror. It would therefore be his clothes for the next few years if he had grown up Chu-nin and was allowed to wear the vest. But he did not want to rush. Now he would try to savor the new acquired status. And to be honest, thought Itachi when he was the bandages wrapped around feet and wrists, he felt now more than ever as a ninja in his life. But only through these few pieces of clothing. And of course by the Konoha headband. It was quite something else to be trained at home, but finally savor the real life that led a ninja. He shook his head silently. Clothes made it so people.
would finally listen to no one else on the Sandaime, added the black-haired added mentally as he is in the huge house by the Kitchen moving. Without the Hokage clothes looked just like an old man in the moment when he then entered the kitchen, he put this idea out of hand. If his father was sitting at the table, he needed all the attention to this man to justice.
" Good morning, Tou-san. Kaa-san Good morning, "Itachi said politely and sat in an upright position at the table, the look neutral to cool.
His mother happily returned the greeting while his father just nodded absently, the presence of his son, but not really perceived. He sat on the newspaper and sipped his tea set, eyes focused on an article.
In the time when the young Uchiha then subsequently took his breakfast to him, but then came the excitement in him. So far he had yet to be distracted, but now he was alone with his thoughts. Who would be his master? They had not told him yesterday after the test, where he had only to appear when. Thoughtful Itachi was chewing around on a roll, if his father knew something? Should he ask him? "Tou-san ?
, Itachi asked as normal as possible.
" Hmm," gave this as a sign that he heard back.
" know ... Do you know who will be my master? "
because Itachi had not been told who was his master. Only when He had to appear where.
there was a long while silence in the room and the little boy did not dare to ask again. Then, finally opened his father's mouth.
" curious So, my son?" It sounded distant behind the newspaper.
Itachi moved slightly up the air. His father held him for curiosity? That was not good. He had always told him that only sissies would be curious, because they feared something unknown. According to his father but he could not have no fear, he should be strong enough to face the unexpected need.
So was the real meaning: Are you scared?
course, wanted to leave Itachi not sit up. And to give even less that he actually was a little excited.
" No, Otou-sama, just any good Ninja collect information before they enter uncharted territory."
Itachi's heart was beating slightly. That was the best answer he could have given. No matter if his father did not believe him or complain, he could not see him. He had not shown any weakness, but only acted after the example of a good ninja, he told himself.
behind his newspaper Fugaku Uchiha his lips moved slightly. He had wanted his son to try a little and then he gave such an answer to that one answer could not do much. As was shown once again that be his son. He would still have a few words to him.
" My son!" the father began.
Itachi growled in thought as his father spoke to him Sun He hated to be addressed. This raised his father always produced, by whom he was descended and what was his destiny. be clan leader.
" My son! Now begins the serious side of life. You will notice that there are now children's games, what will the academy, do not give more. Your path as a ninja has begun and weighs on your shoulders the future of the entire clan. Before your master, whoever may be, takes up as his student, you will still have to pass an examination, where you have to prove yourself worthy of his. I expect you that you pass this exam. You are an Uchiha, not a failure. "
" Yes, Otou-sama replied, "Itachi got up and went, as his father once again dedicated to his newspaper.
-
He would really have to know, Itachi thought as he ran through the Uchiha district, others not paying attention, which looked after him in silence. Slowly, piece by piece He translated the words of his father in this as what it was actually: A threat. There was not much to know what his father meant by these words, if you even a little bit about the character of the Uchiha knew. The fear that his son would prepare the clan shame was greater than the fear of the son himself
Itachi snorted slightly. He could well be the matter. What interested him this stupid clan and call this stupid? He just did not understand what should be his family so special. The Sharingan? Were as great as that one had to idolize the clan so?
He did not know, but he would certainly get the answer when he mastered the eye technique. He was a little displeased at the practice courts, which were determined for the Ge-nin.
Before he arrived there, however, he realized he was being followed.
Wherever he went, always one person ran after him. The steps followed him constantly and it seemed that this person would be in haste. Annoyed pursued them to be turned around and he would be so been almost overwhelmed, he would not be dodged in time. The person who had followed him, had noticed too late that he was stopped and had to take a hard stop. The face was not Itachi, but based on the clothes he realized that it had to be his boy. The Uchiha symbol emblazoned on his back and pointed to the approximately 9-year-old man before him as an Uchiha.
Now, the black-haired boy sat up and gave Itachi from beneath a broad grin.
" day, Itachi!"
Itachi let his gaze briefly on the face of his opposite tail, which made no move to get up to date. Based on the goggles on his head, the young Uchiha was quick to recognize his relatives. But he did not know whether to be excited about it.
" day, Obito, Itachi bowed back. "What are you doing here?"
Normally, he saw his relatives do not very often. While This drove with friends around, he had to train under the supervision of his father. Only once he had joined them and it had become a disaster. The ears rang him today if he remembered the scolding of his father. From whose point of view that is not Obito was not a worthy Uchiha. Whatever might mean.
" I meet with my team, and as my group, and your in the same place together, I wanted to walk with you down. Would be silly if we go alone. Together makes it more fun. In addition, then maybe I'm on time. What do you mean Itachi? "
" Hm, "was just Itachi.
He was again invaded, Obito why he did not like much. Although he was more comfortable than most of his clan because he harbored no interest to him somehow join, but simply sought only his company, but he talked too much. As he began to afflict again on his way, jumped up and ran him quickly Obito behind.
" Hey, wait Itachi. Let me not back! "
One moment the clan had hoped heritage that Obito would not start his lip muscles to train, but that would have been a miracle. Immediately began the older boy next to him to tell of an extremely dangerous mission in which he had apparently saved an entire village. But he listened with half an ear. But if Obito mentioned any techniques that had been applied, he had Itachi's full attention.
-
Uchiha When the two approached the meeting place you could already be several characters there. It was considered a total of three pieces and Itachi who it could well be still, waiting there. There was even once Obito team that, if he had noticed there was a beautiful girl from an adorable champion and an arrogant sack.
Itachi unremarkable bit a little on his lip as he thought about the people and reviewed, which could be seen more clearly now. There was even a to brown-haired girl ran to Obito and loudly welcomed. Said the girl did not seem particularly interested in that. In another corner of the long-range training pitch had two more children. One was a girl with a strange spiky hair and the other an unassuming-looking boy that Itachi did not know, as opposed to the girl.
He nodded at the girl briefly and then leaned against a tree trunk, waiting for his future master. He would soon need. Although they were only a fifteen-minute appointment, but until then he could think a little about this strange boy, who had just entered the arena and now Obito and the girl ran.
could see the boy clearly indicate that he was different from those comic Anko next to him and his chattering relatives, who immediately went on the youth when he had seen him. Apparently seemed to be the white-haired man, about the same age boy to be better than Obito. Already badly that it was Obito weakness. He could not understand how Obito called the white-haired, but betrayed his own presentation him that he was something special.
As already noted, his hair white, something very unusual as Itachi took, especially when you as old as oneself He was equipped with all kinds of weapons and on the back He wore a kind of sword. But the most unusual, the black mask, mouth and nose was covered. Also not a piece of skin from the neck could be seen.
Itachi watched the boys interested. Apparently he was now amused by anything that had to do with Obito. For this seemed to burst with rage so fast. Itachi smirked. At first glance, seemed to be really quite nice indeed. If he has managed to silence the Obito.
was then his eyes from the white-haired boy distracted when the girl called Anko spoke to him: "You? Itachi? Do you happen to who is our master? Yue did not know it. "
Itachi looked at the girl and shook his head. He had not dared to jump over his shadow and the other two to talk, because he would not know what he would say to them, but if Anko took the first step, the better.
Itachi had once come to the conclusion that it was worse than being Anko. It would not be bad to have her team-mate. Although it was sometimes a little crazy, but she could keep in check. They were, for example, not from the other girls, but dealt exclusively with itself over the other comrades Itachi knew next to nothing, just that his performance could not be more. He wore glasses, was inconspicuously dressed and looked weak. A small sigh reached his lips. He was not used to other people the same age to have around. At home he was training alone and now he should fight at a time with others. But if necessary as a ninja, he could do nothing about it.
His eyes turned back to the battlefield, when a young blond man in appearance occurred. He ran up to the group of Obito, do not throw to first have a look in their direction, Itachi felt that the view of the Jo-nins exclusively to him and rested not on the entire group. He gave instructions to his students, who then went to work immediately and removed from the square. Itachi eyes fell short of Obito, who laid siege to the brown-haired girl on the White-haired, who made the most expeditious working to do its tasks. Then his gaze returned to the back-nin Jou, who came to them paced and surprising Itachi raised an eyebrow.
This man was but obviously the master of Obito. At least the appearance of certain agreed with what he had taken from Obito stories. Why does he then joined now with such a serious expression on them? Somehow the smile seemed that the blonde nin-Jou now put on, not to be completely real.
" Yo, guys. Since her team 10? ", Was asked, and the three were concerned with a critical eye.
" not know," Itachi replied, shoulder shrugging, "Will probably be that way. Why?
Itachi was now an intense shivers up the spine as he looked into the pure blue eyes of the ninja before him, who had stepped a bit closer now approached him, but still wore the strange smile on his lips.
" Well, first I went to the team that led the great Orochimaru for the first time in his life to lead a three-man team. Is not really his style I was just curious. "
With these words, turned to the ninja and went his way. Itachi stared but still long on his back. This world was apparently only full of strange creatures. If the man of the white-haired and just not a Konoha Headband would have taken that distinguished them as residents of the village and allies, he would have been on the verge of mistrust to them in spades. Not that he would not do that, but he would remain silent and wait.
After his excitement had subsided a little, he thought about what the ninja said.
Orochimaru.
had not been called this Schlangenäugige? And why should it take to be unusual, a team? He had to be very strong. But, as it had belonged to this Orochimaru had done on a voluntary basis and never had a three man. Hokage could not simply order him to do that? Or that Orochimaru was so strong that even the Hokage that could not?
He knew that his mind slipped a little, but the idea of a strong champion to have calmed his mind. He could not imagine what it would be to have to learn from someone who was not able to grasp its full potential. Itachi it dawned on inside these wannabe ninjas. He was still not strong enough to defeat those weaklings, but at least he was capable to distinguish a real from a figure of Ninja Ninja. That had been one of the first lessons of his father. One should always be on the eighth, which kept in the background and quietly pulled the strings.
Whether its new masters probably belonged to this variety of people?
" Who was that?" Echoed the Anko.
Itachi agreed with her in silence. She had just said what he had thought. He would also like to know who this man was given. However, he also could not resist his comment to make.
" I do not know, but this man was at least as strange as it must be our new masters."
Anko Itachi looked puzzled for a while. She had not expected to actually get a response from the Uchiha. Therefore they had the question he asked himself, for others, their team-mates did not necessarily have an answer. But the cool, almost cold voice Itachi who was so precise that to a one point, she had only to imagine, made it clear who would be the first of the group. Although she was talented, that she knew, but her mind and her intelligence were not enough for the approach of Itachi.
-
Namikaze Minato, the master of Kakashi, Obito and Rin was thoughtful about the arena, turned down the team 10's back. He felt the piercing gaze of the young Uchiha and he began to understand why so much fuss was made about him. He had a razor-sharp mind, which would make it someday become an excellent ninja. One thing was certain: This Itachi Obito was completely different. Obito was part of the mediocrity of the Ninja class of self-control and had never heard of. You could read his thoughts and emotions like an open book. This Itachi was there more like Kakashi. Closed and not willing to let others share his inner thoughts.
scratched his concern of the Konoha Yellow Flash on the head when he went on to his students to search. It would be interesting to know whether that was his true nature or just a mask that the Uchiha clan had imposed on him. But a 6-year-old boy could even wear a mask so perfect? No, but it was equally impossible that this maturity and seriousness had been played. Because that was what he had read in the eyes of the boy. Knowledge. Knowledge of things could not know it. Or should know.
" Have you convinced yourself of the potential of the boy, Minato-kun?" He was suddenly addressed now.
The blond ninja did not turn around, but instead looked into the blue sky, but he knew that Orochimaru was there. Somewhere hidden, so that the San-nin had both him and his new team in mind.
" Yes, Orochimaru-sama. I've seen, why do you have the boys wanted, but I also understand the concerns of the Hokage. You have to be careful what you teach the boy. It could be dangerous. He knows regarded for his age, already too much about reality. "
Then Minato disappeared in a cloud of smoke. He knew he was the San-nin said all had what he had to say. He would later be persuaded like this boy really was. The opportunity would have been. By then, if Itachi would meet Kakashi.
could The San-nin no different than grin when he heard the answer Minatos. But he got what he wanted, Orochimaru thought, looking at Itachi, who was still on the tree. Even if there had been a few problems.
+ + + + Flashback
Orochimaru appeared in a cloud of smoke into the Hokage office and shocked the audience first. It was the examiner who just completed Ge-nin exam, and the Jo-nins and the third Hokage. It was to be discussed, who took over that team. It was surprising that the San-nin now suddenly appeared here, but that this did not matter. Instead, he went up to the desk, where he made the bystanders immediately place. Both fear and out of respect. It was long ago that were in the village, Orochimaru had.
" Hello Orochimaru," the Hokage took the word, "I am up after such a long time to see again. You must not submit your report immediately. I have a little longer with the distribution of new health-nins to do. "
Orochimaru smiled friendly welcome. Even if that was something unusual for him, he was nevertheless glad to see the old fool again, who scolded his Master. It was better when he befriends the Sandaime over, if he was so surprising place a claim.
" No. It's okay. I am flexible. Power still further, I beg to see and wait. "
Well, it was not quite the truth. It was only because the young Uchiha here, but Orochimaru now know how you could convince the Hokage. He saw the third Hokage nodded and leaned a little further back on the wall and watched as the other ninjas deepened the dinner conversation. To his surprise, He also saw Minato, former student of Jiraiya, further to the right beside him. Had not his own three of the students? What he looked he here? That made the snake people curious. Something important had now done immediately.
He looked forward again to the canvas. At this, the respective images projected from the single group, along with information about age, origin, certificates and character. Especially the pictures disappeared from a boy named Asuma and Kurenai by a girl called from the wall. According to the information they would make it well Ge-nin be. They were somewhat older than Itachi.
He waited a while, so that the next group would be launched, but the Hokage took his time. instead of replacing the image he cleared his throat and spoke.
" Well, we come now that we have completed most newcomers to our problem case of this year year. This boy has, for general information only, the test class mastered with extraordinary results, although he is only six years old and started school only half a year ago. "
The Hokage paused and those around him began to whisper and Orochimaru was interested in who that be would. It reminded him of himself too, he was very young when he started school and with similar results, he had also cut off saw Orochimaru as his old master now the film is hung up, picture and name hidden, but still. Minato could hear as he moved, slightly worse in his breath. It seemed as if he would know who it was about.
Der Hokage sprach weiter: „Ich denke ich muss nicht lange darum herum reden. Um den Jungen den ich meine ist kein geringerer als Uchiha Itachi.“
Nun entfernte der Hokage das Blatt, das bisher die Sicht auf das Bild des Jungen Uchihas verwehrt hatte. Es zeigte ihn bei dem Wurf eines Kunai, dass wohl bei einer Unterrichtsstunde aufgenommen worden war. Die Haltung war perfekt. Der Stand war sicher, die Augen nach vorne auf das Ziel gerichtet, das Messer fest mit der rechten Hand umschlossen. Kaum ein Abschlussschüler schaffte eine derart perfekte Haltung anzunehmen. Orochimaru saw this picture only as further evidence of the potential of the boy. He had to be the teacher of this boy. Is The problem with this boy that he is even the son of Fugaku Uchiha "
, the Hokage spoke again and once received all the attention. The audience seemed to know what the problem was. Orochimaru took a moment to understand what his old master was getting at.
" This boy is the heir of the Uchiha clan. For this reason alone, I had difficulty finding someone to be the master of the boys could. It must be accepted by the Uchiha clan. They would not let that someone accepts, in their view, incompetent, the boy. "
affirmative murmur in the room.
" Then there is the potential of the boy. There must be someone who has enough strength to be able to tame and teach the young Itachi. This will not be easy, since he has a very specific type of chakra. "
" Lastly, there was the boy himself, he is unusually wide and mature for his age. His understanding is very much pronounced, to say the least. I therefore need someone who dares to educate the young Itachi not only physically but also mentally instruct you to. If he does not get the proper instruction, we might one day grow Uchiha Itachi on the head. "
long time there was silence in the room first. Everyone thought about it and probably came to the Conclusion that would be capable, Itachi to train optimally. Orochimaru grinned. That was always better. This allowed the Hokage do nothing other than him to hand over the boy. He only had to point out. But first he wanted to wait for what Arashi had to say. Long ago he had to admit that Jiraiya had done with the once-hyperactive blond ninja a good catch as his successor. He probably would be even better than his master himself "san Namikaze"
, the Hokage spoke again, this time clearly desperate, "can you do not take the boy? If no one finds the boy of his own relatives can be formed. And this is me in this clan at the moment a bit fishy. "
The Hokage could be happy that the room had no Uchiha. But it was true. It would be good if the boy, the world view of his clan would get hammered even more in the classroom. Fortunately, however, rejected by Orochimaru raised the Jou-nin from.
" No, I can not and will not take the boys too. Once I would not accept the Uchiha clan as a master of the boys. It will be difficult for them to accept anyone at all. Also, I've already Hatake Kakashi in my group. "
The last sentence was the third Hokage already a worried face.
" He Uchiha Itachi is very similar, but, as I know from stories, a slightly different view of themselves and the world. These two boys would be put into a group for the time being no good. Two such power pins must be given undivided attention and I'm not the right type for children like Itachi. "
This concluded his speech from Minato and the Hokage shook the desperate head. He did not know whom he could ask else. The Case of the Uchiha clan was simply too sensitive. Was heard the voice of his former pupil, whose presence he had already forgotten:
" I want the boy."
Everything looked to the Sannin.
This was unexpected. It was the first time that Orochimaru expressed a desire to teach someone. Although the Hokage, it had several times tried to train to persuade his former students to a team he had ever received a rejection. Sure, Orochimaru is not a simple man and maybe it was just what was awakened in the Hokage slight doubt.
" you want to teach the Uchiha, Orochimaru? "Asked the old master so once again emphasized to slow. He could not believe it really, what he had heard.
Orochimaru was well aware of its position and they took advantage of perfect. This was again a sign that they knew him not, as some dared to believe.
" Yes, I would like to train the boy. I have met him today morning and I saw the potential in his eyes. This boy is a force for the least-understood is. He is not a normal boy and if he would be instructed by this pathetic clan, he will never be able to develop its full force because it would be limited by false values. "
" Orochimaru, are you sure that you are the right thing for this?"
The Hokage knew that the San had nin-as good as won and actually would also have to say anything against it if it would not just Orochimaru. Finally, Sandaime knew of the somewhat twisted idea of justice and power, even if he does not do his student said. He could not change the fact that Orochimaru was so, but it was too uncomfortable to give it to someone like Itachi Uchiha in the hands of his pupil. He did not even know if Orochimaru suited to being a teacher, but he had to risk it.
" I'm probably the only one of all of us, will accept the Uchiha clan. If not voluntarily, they will also be able to say anything against it. You would not dare any of the three San-nin to reject. "
The Hokage nodded. Whether he had a bad feeling about it, he had to give his consent to this. Better the Uchiha heir in Orochimaru's hands than in the clan itself, he could not believe this clan. Sure, they were strong and important to Konoha, but she also took a lot out of their position. They believed to be irreplaceable and that had made them arrogant for Konoha. The Uchiha were born loner anyway. They had no connections to the outside.
So he would need to pass in Itachi Orochimaru's hands. Prior to the decision in writing absegnete however, the Sandaime threw a quick glance over to Minato, a ninja whose opinion he recently put more and more value. This nod. So he realized that nothing could be done.
" All right," the Hokage raised his voice. "So there it is. As of now, Orochimaru has all the responsibility on the training of Uchiha Itachi and his teammates. "
Orochimaru flashed briefly how a stroke taken together. Secretly he hoped that he would be the only Uchiha can teach, but the Sandaime wanted to give the young Uchiha probably not additionally the feeling of being something special. He would see what would have kind of team-mates Itachi. In any case, it had to be some that came with the character of Itachi and rightly so. But really it did not matter. He had what he wanted.
" Hokage-sama. I'll explain it to the Uchiha saying that their heritage is under my care. "
The Hokage nodded. That was probably the best. He watched as his former student Orochimaru disappeared in a cloud of smoke, like that of the room emptied slowly.
Only Minato was still there.
Even if he had his reservations about how it would be with Orochimaru and Itachi, it was still a better result than he had thought today morning. He had previously made a serious concern, which covered the champion of the young Itachi.
-
? Do you think I've done the right thing, Minato, "said the Hokage after the room had emptied.
" It is their decision, Hokage-sama. Moreover, as I said it is and Orochimaru. There is no one else. Not after the last war. "
" But someone like Orochimaru and Itachi is a very dangerous mixture. This tells me my Feeling. "
" I have not met him personally, but it was foreseeable that a boy like Itachi, who has now the whole village just for a few Doppelgä ; scavengers is in turmoil, would cause problems. If Orochimaru-sama supervised him, he is in the worst case can at least prevent that the village will notice some of the explosion. "
" There's always still the Mo ; possibility that they go off together like a bomb. They both have a difficult character. "
" you should Orochimaru-sama to trust a little more. Even if he is different than most, so, I think, a sign of his genius. I'm sure he will make a good Itachi Konoha ninja. The possibility that the two be understood as only good, it even still. Good bye, Hokage-sama. "
" Good bye, Minato. "
However, the Hokage was on this evening to bed with worry.
