The Opposite Uchiha (Naruto Fanfiction)

A crisis

Hae Uchiha spent a night strolling through the forest, buzzing with the sounds of insects, she was conflicted. Her son has shown prodigious signs, and as much as it makes her proud it also made her fearful. He will be forced to grow up quickly and sent to the battlefield, and she'll lose him before she gets to know him. The worse thing to happen to a mother is getting their child taken away.

Hae closes her eyes with a deep sigh, the tears brimming over the edge of her eyelids rolling down the hills of her porcelain cheeks. She wipes them away with the sleeve of her kimono, the Uchiha symbol is shown proudly on her back. A faint smile adorned her lips, the full moon stared down at her, touching her body with a soft glow. She curls her legs beneath and plops down on her legs.

A cold wind breezes through the strands of the black hair that escaped out of the bun centered on the top of her head. Hae places her hands together with the backs facing outward and dips her head down until it touched her fingertips. She starts muttering to Kami sama.

She prays for the future of her family, she prays for more time with her child, she prays to not lose her title of a mother with a child dying in war. The water flowed out of her eyes, she prays she can have a chance to actually be a parent.

Unknowing to her a light gleamed down and struck her body with a force. With hollowed breaths, her body spasmed uncontrollably. Pain spreading through her body like a firework, she heaves for air hunching her back. Black spots appeared in her vision along with the flashing color of white. She falls unconscious on the forest floor with a whimsy voice whispering in her ears. I will gift you something you desire.

The strange light was absorbed into her uterus, fertilizing her egg. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Not all gifts are easily accepted by others, even the one who wished for it may grow to hate it. What is the destined fate of this baby?

_____________________________________________________

The Uchiha is a family of strong feelings of love and distrust. It's a guarantee we're hostile towards things or people who aren't familiar. We don't welcome outsiders, who don't belong inside the Uchiha compound, they receive disdainful glares and mockery by our brethren.

Obito Uchiha was the result of this ridicule. He was called the black sheep of the Uchiha and a failure to our clan. Obito easily expressed his emotions in front of others, he helped people, mostly elders in need of assistance for heavy lifting, crossing the street, or company. His bright attitude and childish behavior made him worthy of the Uchiha's side-eye. Prompting mockery of his outward character.

Obito fueled by this, decides to become Hokage, to one day achieve admiration and respect, instead of the hurtful gazes and words of his fellow clan, and close family members. His Grandma took the blows as well, for having a grandson as an embarrassing descendant of the Uchiha.

Obito later perished at the young age of 13, sacrificing himself on a war mission to save his team. He never achieved his dream and was neglected by his clan who paid no regard to his death, or funeral with only his bawling Grandma present.

Why am I talking about Obito Uchiha?

It's because I correlate to his story, his pain, and suffering under the undesirable eyes of the Uchiha. The not so subtle hums of scornful smiles, and taunts of my appearance in the clan compound or meetings. Everybody told me that I don't belong within the Uchiha clan.

I was born on December 25th, on a normal day in the wintertime, except there was a surprise blizzard on that same day. It left Konoha unprepared by trapping everyone inside their homes, by the level of snow that reached above the roof of a first-floor home. People may have wished for snow, but wishing and getting it makes them, overjoyed and uneasy.

A wave of madness hit the village vigorously before we were caved in, people were running around in fear that the world was ending. Shops were closed until further notice, the streets that were once full were vacant in a matter of hours it felt as if the village was a ghost town. Even the eccentric ninjas, who drugged on training to survive, preferred to stay inside during this time.

On that same day, Hae Uchiha's water broke a month too early. It happened when she was in the kitchen cooking breakfast, Fish, vegetable soup, bananas, rolled egg omelet, and some rice to finish the meal. Her son sat at the table patiently waiting for the food to be done. To lessen the time, He talks about the day he spent with his aunts and uncles.

"Mama, Aunty Noriko showed me her fireball Jutsu, it was huge!" He chirped, his long eyelashes fluttering about, and his messy curls swaying as he moved his head. With a delighted smile on her face listening to her son's chatter while singing a tune for the baby inside her. She felt him kicking and next thing you know her water broke in the middle of chopping the carrots for the broth.

A yelp left her mouth and she stumbles back hitting the counter, her son's frightening scream woke up his father, Kagami Uchiha. He came storming down the stairs, hands positioned towards his pouch. He scanned his home and his eyes landed on his wife clutching her abdomen in front of the kitchen counter. The knife laid right next to her, with his son grasping his mother's side, he immediately thought the worst.

He ran to her, gently pushing Shisui aside, and reached for her abdomen for any sign of a wound. He found none, then it's the baby that caused this. He thought, slipping his left arm under her knees, and the other one supporting her back. He transferred her over to their couch with Shisui who was puzzled.
