[Comprehensive] living to death

Another sunny and not-so-fun afternoon; Wednesday is always the dullest day of the week.

Sasuke sat by the window, didn't listen to what the teacher on the podium was talking about, and looked out the window with his face lifted.Compared with his brother Itachi, Sasuke is more like his mother, so he looks more handsome.His family said that he was very similar to his sister when he was a child, but Sasuke didn't believe it at all; although his sister often teased him, Sasuke actually thought that his sister was beautiful in private.

Well, of course, the envy of classmates can also help Sasuke-san's vanity~

He has already learned all the content in school, including throwing shuriken to be practiced later.Is there a better technique than the "Shuriken Art" of the Uchiha family?Saying "yes", Sasuke didn't believe it either.And it's true that his peers in school can't compare to him... oh except Naruto, but he won't lose!

It is precisely because of such pride in the subconscious that Sasuke doesn't like to talk to his classmates; what's more, he is fair and handsome, very popular with girls, and even less popular with boys, making him arrogant and out of gregarious.And Naruto, who is also a top student, has a cheerful personality and loves to play pranks, and he gets along with the boys—but girls don't like him very much.

But except for a few existences that he regards as "friends", Sasuke doesn't care about other people's thoughts.Although he was young, he also inadvertently inherited the superiority of the famous Uchiha - he only valued those who he thought were strong enough.

Alas... Rather than wasting time in school, it would be better to practice with Naruto, Sasuke secretly sighed.If possible, he also wants to practice with his brothers and sisters; although they are much stronger than him, it is easy to make people feel frustrated, but it is meaningful to practice with the strong, isn't it?

The school bell rang.

The classroom suddenly became lively.The last two classes in a while are practicing actual combat skills on the school playground. For most children, it is no different from playing, so everyone can't wait to start packing things, and there are naughty fights in the classroom .

Sasuke didn't move, and still maintained the posture of resting his chin and looking out of the window, and at the same time very skillfully filtered out the background sound of "Sasuke-san is so handsome~".

That's boring... wait that's it? !

Sasuke's eyes froze.I swear by his 5.3 eyesight, he was definitely on the tree next to the playground, and saw his sister gesturing to him to let him pass!

Two seconds later, Gao Leng's ninja school three-year flower—Sasuke—stands up like a spring!Then he stabilized his figure, suppressed the little doubts of the surrounding students with a calm expression, and then walked towards the door of the classroom.

"Yo Sasuke, do you want to go down now?"

Within two steps, Naruto, who was in the middle of other people's brains, jumped over, hooked his shoulder unceremoniously, and said with a smile: "Come with us~"

The black-haired, black-eyed child glanced at his friend, and said coldly:

"Go to the toilet."

Naruto blinked his blue eyes.

"Naruto, I have something to do, wait for class, remember to cover for me!"

Sasuke, who was quite cool in the last moment, quickly lowered his voice, dropped a series of words in a hurry, and then ran away with a "chuck".

Naruto:"……?"

"Hey Naruto, what is Sasuke doing?"

Shikamaru asked lazily from behind.They are not very interested in Sasuke, but if Naruto and Sasuke are on good terms, they don't care.

"Oh, that..." Naruto turned around, scratched his head, grinned, and said decisively, "He needs to pee urgently!"

******

Put a "□□" in the bathroom, and it will last for a while after class.After doing all this, Sasuke ran to the tree where his sister was before.

The tree was at the junction of the school and the small forest, and when it turned around, it just formed a dead angle with the school wall.When Sasuke arrived under the tree, there was no one there.He leaned on his knees and panted lightly, his big eyes keenly searching his surroundings.For some reason, his sister had a soft spot for scaring him, doing everything from jumping out of nowhere to telling ghost stories, and then laughing out loud at him who was scared.

Recalling, Sasuke is so ashamed!He swore that he would never let his sister succeed again, hum!

But this time my sister didn't seem to have any intention of hiding it.A shadow appeared on the ground; Sasuke immediately looked up vigilantly, and saw a figure on the fence of the ninja school.Although the face is not clear under the backlight, it is indeed my sister.

"Sister!" Sasuke blurted out, only to realize that his voice sounded too happy, and hurriedly suppressed it, "Did sister come to see me?"

"Sasuke, come here, I have something to tell you."

My sister's voice... seemed very dignified.

Sasuke froze for a moment, his heart skipped a beat.He collected himself, squeezed the smile off his lips, looked solemn like a truly reliable ninja, and quickly jumped onto the wall with the help of the nearby trees.

Mingyue was already standing outside the wall waiting for him.It was the back of the building, a remote place where almost no one passed by, so you don't have to worry about being seen.

Sasuke jumped down, landed lightly like a bird, immediately stood up quickly, and couldn't wait to ask: "Sister, what happened?"

In the past, Mingyue liked to loose her hair, but now her long hair is tied up high, showing the neatness of a warrior.She was staring at Sasuke with a very serious expression, but there was sadness in the seriousness.

"Little Sasuke," she bent down, gently put her hand on his head, and whispered, "I have something unfortunate to tell you."

My sister rarely speaks in such a soft voice, let alone a little hoarse.Her hand was obviously very warm, but Sasuke shivered slightly; he stared blankly at his sister.

"Your brother..." Mingyue's hands trembled, her voice trembled, almost choking, "Little Weasel..."

What?Sasuke's mind was at a loss, but his heart beat faster because of fear - thump, thump!

"Sister... what are you talking about?" Sasuke grabbed his sister's clothes, "Brother, brother, did something happen to him?"

Mingyue closed her eyes lightly, as if she couldn't bear to look at her younger brother's frightened face, but her own voice was trembling. "Yes," she took a deep breath, because otherwise she couldn't continue, "Just this morning, Weasel, he has, has..."

Liar!Sasuke screamed in his heart, obviously his mother said that his brother was fine!Said that my brother was about to be discharged from the hospital!

Tears are accumulated in my heart, overflowing quickly, and will burst out of my eyes in the next second...

"...I've been discharged from the hospital and we ate dumplings together, now I'm here to ask Sasuke to ask you to skip class and play with us~"

However, in the next second, Sasuke saw his sister's face suddenly bright with sunshine, shaking her index finger at him, and said the above words triumphantly.

Ugh--

Someone behind him sighed helplessly.

A familiar voice said gently: "Sister, you scared Sasuke."

Sasuke, who was about to cry just now, turned his head suddenly, and saw his brother as expected.He was still in a daze, but his elder brother had squatted down and gently patted his head.

"I'm sorry, Sasuke," Itachi comforted his younger brother softly, "My sister was just joking with you."

Sasuke: "...!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

However, the culprit was still laughing arrogantly, without the slightest bit of guilt.Even she knelt down and poked the back of Sasuke's head like she was poking a tumbler.

angry.

"Joke, this is just a joke~" Mingyue said, "How about little Sasuke, is he really scared? Hahaha... How is it? Surprise is not a surprise, is it exciting or not?"

The little flame of anger that had already started to burn in the child Sasuke's heart was fueled by his sister's joking and indifferent attitude, and it suddenly had the tendency to develop into a forest fire.

Sasuke clenched his fists.

Itachi paused, raised his head, and gave his sister a self-seeking look.

Mingyue: ...Huh?

Sasuke shook his head vigorously, glaring at his sister angrily like a hedgehog with fried fur.

"Sister! You are too much!!!"

******

"Is that so... No wonder that kid Sasuke doesn't want to talk to you."

"Deserving it."

The first sentence comes from Kakashi who holds a yellow book, and the second sentence comes from Obito who also holds a yellow book.

"What little dirty book, hello!" Obito was furious, "Look clearly, that guy Kakashi got "Kindness to Heaven", and I got "Strong Perseverance and Endurance", okay?"

"Is there any difference? Aren't they all written by my teacher with a yellow cover, referred to as 'little yellow book'." Mingyue said, "Don't you think it's more important to help me get rid of my angry brother?"

"do not think so."

The other two said in unison.

Mingyue sighed faintly.At this moment, she was leaning against the tree trunk, with a stretched green canopy above her head, and a few rays of sunlight that leaked down.Kakashi and Obito are next to her, the former is still wearing a mask and covering his left eye with his forehead, but the once silent and cold white-haired boy has become an uncle with dead fish eyes (“Hey, I’m only 24, okay?"); the latter has a large scar on the right side of his face, while the complete left side is quite handsome, with sharp eyes.

When Obito "died in battle", he gave Kakashi his left eye; Kakashi couldn't control the opening of Sharingan, so he had to cover his eyes with his forehead all the time.After Obito came back, Kakashi wanted to give him back the eyes, but Obito sneered and refused with a mouthful of "garbage".

Probably Obito just didn't want to see Kakashi lose an eye; even if that sunny boy had become such a prickly and contradictory character now, he was still that Uchiha Obito deep in his heart.

With the consent of the clan, Fuyue gave the eyes of a dead clansman to Obito; although it is not as powerful as Obito's own Sharingan, at least it will not hinder vision.Obito didn't want to accept it at first, but Mingyue comforted him: "What are you afraid of? Anyway, our family's Sharingan is hot-swappable, plug and play. If you don't use it, you will end up being destroyed. Besides, you can realize it better if you have eyes. Your wish - don't you want to protect Konoha with Kakashi?"

This is how Obito is now staring at her with piercing eyes.

The place where they are staying now is the lake that they used to come to practice when they were young.I thought there was no one here, but I didn't expect to meet Kakashi and Obito, and saw that they had a little yellow book in their hands, and they were studying hard.Itachi wondered how the two junin (Obito was promoted to special jnin under the insistence of the fourth generation) were so leisurely. Kakashi said that ninjas should also learn to enjoy life.

The current situation is that the angry little Sasuke rejected his sister's suggestion to teach him how to practice, and only pestered Itachi to let his brother teach him new and more powerful ninjutsu.In Itachi's smiling eyes, Mingyue, who was "cast into the cold palace", could only look at her younger brother and sigh in the shade of a tree.

The wind blows from the surface of the lake, bringing moist and refreshing breath; the vegetation stretches its body and whispers in the sand.The three people under the tree were silent for a moment.

"Obito, you have a caterpillar on your head." Mingyue pointed to the top of Obito's head.

Obito didn't move his eyebrows, he grabbed the little spider hanging above his head casually, crushed it to death, and threw it far away.

"Isn't this a spider, what kind of caterpillar..." He stopped suddenly in the middle of his words, a flash of memory flashed across his face, and then he quickly returned to the current angular calm. "I'm no longer the Obito who would be scared by caterpillars." He said flatly.

"yes."

Kakashi looked down at the book, as if he didn't hear anything.

"You don't have to go." Obito said suddenly.

"You really know." Mingyue was not surprised, "Oh, is it really okay to talk about this in a place where there are so many bugs?"

"I didn't say anything shameful. Hmph, Danzo, that old guy." Obito sneered, then paused, "Hey, is there any problem nearby, Kakashi?"

"I'm not a sentient ninja, Obito." Kakashi raised his head from the book and thought for a while, "But, it should be fine, right?"

"What kind of answer is that!"

"Who will I go if I don't?" Mingyue raised her eyebrows and asked Obito, "You?" Before Obito could answer, Mingyue smiled lazily. "Forget it, Obito. After you returned to Konoha, the connection with 'over there' was broken, right? It is impossible to be trusted when you go back now." She said, "Also, even if you dare to go, the high-level Konoha I dare not let you go—what if you change sides again?"

"Over there" refers to the "Xiao" organization.

"...Could it be that you will be trusted by 'there'?!" Obito replied a little irritably.

"I don't need trust from 'there'." Mingyue smiled cunningly, "But this involves confidentiality, so I can't tell you."

They were silent for a while longer; Kakashi closed the book in his hand and put it in his carry-on bag.A few crows came from nowhere and yelled "ahhh" and flew over their heads, and then passed over the Uchiha brothers by the lake, turning into a few black spots in the distance.

"Don't die," Kakashi said.

Mingyue stared at her younger brother by the lake, her gaze shifted from Sasuke who was peeking at her to Itachi next to her.The boy with long black hair noticed her gaze and turned to smile at her.

Itachi hates war and wants world peace, so he wants to be Hokage; however, he is not suitable for that position.He doesn't like to deal with people, and he doesn't bother to explain his ideas to people who are not as good as himself.Rather than getting others to agree with his ideas, he is more inclined to speak with results.However, the willing trust and following of others can never be obtained by relying on strong force.

That child...actually just wants to live freely in a world without disputes.

"Kakashi, what you said, who would want to die? Anyway, I don't want to." Mingyue said, "I don't want to at all."

She raised her legs and walked towards the lake, but stopped suddenly.

"But everything happens in case."

She didn't look back, but her voice was calm.

"At that time, please do me a favor and take care of my brother more, thank you."

Just like Obito is no longer the teenager who is scared by caterpillars, she is no longer the little girl who can play freely.

Mingyue strode towards the lake.The lake was shimmering, and her black hair gleamed in the sun.

"Little Sasuke! Don't be angry~ In order to make amends, how about my sister go back and make you tomatoes mixed with sugar?"

"No, no! My sister's cooking is not delicious at all!"

"Hmm... how about hugging and holding high?"

"Don't! I'm an adult now...Wow, I said no! My sister let me down! Brother! Brother, help me..."

Kakashi scratched his white hair and glanced at Obito with his left eye.

"What to look at, I must know less than you." Obito said unhappily.

"Oh, I know, I didn't mean to ask you that either." Kakashi said, pretending not to see Obito's white eyes, "I just wanted to say that Mingyue must be fine."

The playful sounds of the siblings by the lake and the sound of the wind are mixed together, which perfectly complements the beautiful, quiet and beautiful scenery in front of us.

"...Of course, I'm not worried." Obito said, "I can survive, how could that guy die."
