Naruto : An Uchiha's Tale

Time passed, and the fourth birthday of the Uchiha genius trio had arrived. The fact that the three of them were born on the same date was astonishing, and the whole clan saw this as a blessing.

Jin was not in the best mood today, his father, Inari, had left on a mission with the ANBU for the past month or so. And he still didn't get any news from him. Hanami was in a similar state, albeit a little more optimistic than her son.

"Is dad going to miss my birthday?"

Jin asked his mom in a worried tone of voice. To which his mother responded to with a calm smile, not letting any sadness show on her face. It was hard seeing her son so depressed.

"Don't worry, I am sure dad will make it up to you somehow Jin."

"Yeah..."

Jin had gotten really close to his parents the past few years. They provided him with a love that he never experienced in his past life, which made him go all emotional when he thought about it.

"By the way Jin, today is the day you, Fugaku and Hideki get your chakra natures tested! You will be supervised by the clan head and Ayaka, along with me."

Jin's face lit up, he had been waiting for this moment for the past four years. Chakra Nature! He was already able to sense and mold chakra at a beginner level, thanks to his dad's training. Not having learned any jutsu because of his child chakra reserves, he really wanted to know his nature!

"Jin, before tonight, there's something I wanted to tell you before your fourth birthday, although I never had the chance to. It's about the fact that I do not look like the others from our clan."

Jin was already expecting something like this to come sooner or later, but he never really inquired because the clan seemed to be fine with his mother, and never mistreated her in any way.

"The truth is, I am not from Konoha. I come from the village hidden in the clouds, Kumogakure. And I was part of the third Raikage's personal guard."

What?! that's all Jin could say in his head, he had expected her being from Kumogakure because of her skin tone, but the Raikage's personal guard? His mother was on another level! Flashbacks of 'A', the man that fought against ten thousand shinobi to facilitate his army's escape started to flood his mind.

"Is that true mom?! are you that strong?! how did you meet dad?"

Hanami looked at her son with loving eyes and continued.

"It was during the first war, and I was the newly appointed guard for the Raikage. While on an undercover mission where I led some of my fellow ninjas to ambush the leaf's forces, I met your dad, he was strong, and single-handedly took on my troops, I could only sit watch as he went on an onslaught."

Jin listened while he saw his mom's eyes sparkle with nostalgia.

"I was scared of him, yet stupefied by the way he moved so gracefully around the battlefield. It was then that I made eye contact with him for the first time. I literally fell into his gaze, his Mangekyō-Sharingan put me in a deep genjutsu, and the best part of it, was that it didn't even feel bad, in fact, it was like a dream."

Taking a deep breath, she continued.

"When I woke up I saw him crouching beside me, treating my wounds. I asked him what he was doing, and it was then that he told me, he would never let such a beautiful woman die in front of his eyes."

Jin realized just how much of a smooth talker his dad was, and mentally gave him a thumbs up.

"After that, through a lot of pleading, we managed to get me a Konoha citizenship as I married into the Uchiha clan. I had heard Uchiha were stuck up and proud, and that may be true, but between them, the camaraderie is greater than anything I had ever seen. They accepted me as one of their own after Inari explained that I was the love of his life. And I will be always grateful."

Jin almost teared up, and while his mother let out tears of her own, she hugged her son tightly.

"Mom... I am proud to be your son... And I am proud to be an Uchiha!"

"Mhm.!"

Hanami relaxed in her only son's embrace.

Later that day...

Jin and his mother made their way to the Uchiha training grounds and were soon greeted by the sight of Goro, Fugaku, Ayaka, and Hideki, all sitting down, joyfully conversing over some tea.

"Hey There! How's young Jin doing? You look stronger than ever!"

Goro had his usual strong and proud demeanor, as he asked his beloved nephew.

"Uncle, I am fine thank you, ready to get stronger!"

"Long time no see Jin... today I'll show you that I'm the superior Uchiha."

Fugaku was all proud as per usual.

"We'll see about that, Fu-Ga-Ku-chaann"

Jin felt great when bothering such a proud character.

"Stop calling me that!"

Everyone laughed cheerfully.

"Hmph."

Fugaku looked away, and Hideki spoke up, a bit nervous.

"How are you doing big bro? care to teach me some taijutsu later?"

"No problem! You look like you've been working hard Hideki!"

Hideki smiled, his cousin was like a shining star in his eyes, and he looked up to him. When he confirmed some taijutsu lessons were on their way, his mood was instantly lifted.

"Now then let's get down to business. Here's one paper for each of you."

Goro handed out Chakra induction papers to the trio. And explained the process.

"You only need to let your chakra flow through the paper, and depending on what happens to the paper, your nature can be assessed."

He then took out a piece for himself and went through the procedure. The paper ignited and turned to ash. Jin was expecting it, while Fugaku and Hideki were visibly surprised.

"This means that my chakra nature is fire, and I am suited to use fire ninjutsu."

"My turn!"

Hideki couldn't wait as he closed his eyes and let his chakra flow through the paper he had in his hand. The paper then ignited and cut in half before it burned to ash.

"Goodness! We have a dual attributed genius! You are one in a million Hideki. Suited towards fire but also wind. Kagami would be proud of you."

Hideki was all smiles when Fugaku released his chakra into the paper too. Not wanting to lose. The paper once again ignited, but this time it became dirt as it crumbled under the fire. A strong smell of burnt mud permeated the air.

"Dual nature and the dominant is fire at that. Congratulations son, you are also one in a million! Just like Hideki. In addition to fire, you possess earth affinity in contrast to Hideki's wind."

At this point, Goro and the mothers of the trio were in deep shock, a single dual nature ninja was a genius In any village, but two in the same clan? Incredible.

Goro was smiling from ear to ear, as this was the best thing that could happen to his clan. Two geniuses were born.

Fugaku smirked and looked at Jin with provocation in his eyes.
