Naruto : An Uchiha's Tale

As the trio made their way to the academy, the sky started to darken and clouds began to form.

"I have a bad feeling, guys."

Jin looked concerned as his cousins agreed with a nod. His gut told him that something was going to happen on that day.

"Let's just be extra careful today, for good measure"

-------------------------------------------

The day at the academy couldn't have started more normally, as the three of them relaxed a little bit. All of the students were having fun as per usual, and the girls were continuously pestering them.

Things were fine, so Jin decided to go and train in the woods. He left a shadow-clone to attend the lessons in his place.

As he made it to the woods in the academy's vicinity, Jin felt a little weird. As if something was staring at him.

He was very observant and trained his eyesight by looking for little-hidden things in the woods. Leading him to find many little and cute animals, which he enjoyed watching from afar.

The confirmation came when he saw the exact same bird's nest like the one earlier.

Jin immediately activated his Sharingan and noticed soon after that his chakra flow was jumbled up. Feeling surprised and a little worried, he formed a hand seal with his right, released the genjutsu that he was under.

"Kai!"

As he came back to reality, he found out that he was back at the academy. The students in his class, including Fugaku and Hideki, were also under a genjutsu.

After making sure that no one was around, he silently got up and placed his left hand on Fugaku's shoulder, while forming another seal with his right.

"Kai"

This time it was more hushed as he didn't want to stand out.

Fugaku woke up and looked around him, confused. Only to see everybody down and Jin making a sign for him to not speak.

Jin then pointed a Sleeping Hideki, and Fugaku being the smart kid he was, understood the message. He immediately got up and released Hideki from his genjutsu.

Hideki seemed to have woken up from a good dream as he still had a smile on his face and saliva drooped under his lips. He got serious when he saw Fugaku's frown while looking at him.

"I do not know the current situation, but I am afraid the class seems to have been put under a strong genjutsu. I have only just woke up myself."

"Was it only us?"

Hideki was very scared, but he didn't show it as his two cousins were oddly calm.

"The whole school might be under the genjutsu, for all we know. Everything is a bit too quiet."

"Fugaku is right, let's hide for now and we'll think of a plan together."

They looked around and noticed that the room was dark. The curtains were pulled, making things less visible. Their eyes moved around to find a good spot.

The trio found a nearby cupboard in which they could all fit and swiftly hid inside of it.

Mere minutes passed until the sound of footsteps could be heard outside of the classroom. Suddenly, the door opened and three figures made their way in.

A skinny looking ninja was the first to walk in. His crooked laugh, along with his pale and ugly face was enough to give any kid nightmares.

"Konoha won't be expecting this, first-bro. Hehehehe..."

"Second-bro, I don't know about this... Although we managed to lay a genjutsu formation while going unnoticed, Konoha could notice at any time. If they do, I'm afraid they will be on guard. This could put our mission to retrieve Hanako on hold..."

The second voice came from a chubby, dark-skinned man. His eyes looked nervously around his surroundings, as he questioned the skinny man.

"Both of you shut up. We kill most of them and take the three Uchiha geniuses, they should hold the most value to the village. Also, our troops won't be discovered anytime soon. Relax."

The last man to speak was tall and well-built. He seemed to be the leader of the gang, as his piercing eyes looked around. A chilling smirk appearing on his face.

"Can we enjoy the little girls of this class big brother? I haven't let myself go in a while... Hehehehehe."

The skinny man laughed chillingly as he made his way to the prettiest looking girl in the room, It was none other than Mikoto Uchiha.

He then grabbed her thighs while licking his lips.

When Fugaku saw this from the little opening in the cupboard, rage filled his body as he jumped out, going straight for the skinny ninja with a kunai in his hand.

Jin and Hideki were surprised, but they instantly took action, both running towards a target. Jin made his way to the leader while Hideki flickered towards the fatty.

Both of them were battle ready.

"What?! Where did these brats come from?!"

The skinny ninja was startled by the killing intent he felt from Fugaku. Taking the kid seriously, he readied his blade and blocked the kunai attack. Immediately after, Fugaku disappeared, being replaced by a leaf. As he re-appeared behind the ninja, he threw a little gift his way.

"Burn in hell you vicious monster!"

"Fire style: Great fireball jutsu!"

The darkness of the room was replaced by a blazing light as the fireball made its way towards the skinny ninja, who was scared stiff by it. The attack came too abruptly, he was thus hit directly as he started to be burned alive.

"AAAHHHHHHHHH! IT BURNNNNSSSSSS!!! YOU LITTLE SHIT!!!! I WILL MURDER YOU!"

His words were in vain as the pain from being burnt made him faint, although the flames were not enough to kill him.

"Second brother!!!! Look at what you have done!"

The fat ninja had a mad look of rage as he ran towards Fugaku, along with lightning covering his whole arm. Fugaku could only watch as the fatty attacked him, the earlier fireball had drained him of all his chakra reserves.

"Hold it you fatty! I'm your opponent!"

Hideki appeared in front of the fatty, startling him. He thus decided to deal with this kid first.

"You dare call me a fatty?! Taste my jutsu!"

"Yeah so? Big fat fatty!"

Hideki readied himself as he looked back at Fugaku.

"Big bro, rest up and protect Mikoto-chan!"

A look of gratitude appeared on his face as Fugaku made his way towards Mikoto.

While all of this was happening, Jin had already gouged the leader's strength. He seemed to be at chuunin level. And judging by the other's strength, they were most likely genin.

Jin's flicker had been seen through twice already at this point, and he couldn't overwhelm his opponent with taijutsu. He did not want to use ninjutsu as that would quickly drain his reserves. After thinking for a while, he decided to go with genjutsu.

His eyes spun as he cast some minor illusions on his opponent, without them noticing in the slightest.
