Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go by any rules. They're not like aches or wounds; they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material. ~F. Scott Fitzgerald
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It had been two years since Sasuke last seen the Uchiha Compound, yet he remember every twist and turn. His feet lead him down a familiar path; shadows of people who have long left this world roamed the street with their left family member. Sasuke could tell nobody had been here since the massacre for all that was removed were the bodies, everything else was left behind; stray weapons, broken glass from windows, and opened doors hanging off their hinges was anything but uncommon in the abandon compound. It was a ghost town that no one dared enter.
As he walked down the chosen path, Sasuke began to get the feeling of being watch, slowing down to a stop he looked down a dark ally. His eyes began to search thought the over ground weeds, his hand slowly went to his shoulder where the hilt of his katana lie. A glowing pair of green eyes could be seen through the weeds; the outline of its silhouette shown it was some sort of animal, a small one, however that didn?t say it wasn?t deadly. Sasuke tensed as the pair of eyes suddenly took charge right towards him.
The young child laughed in relief, for the deadly animal had been a small stray cat, kitten really. The kitten purred as it twirled around his legs, Sasuke looked around the abandoned compound before picking up the stray. Even though Sasuke wasn?t much of a cat person, he decided right then and there that he would keep the cat. Much like a young human baby being found by a pack of wolves, they tend to dislike each other but seeing one so defenseless and alone makes the other want to help. Sasuke started walking again, lightly stroking the newfound purring feline.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The main house was much like every other house in the compound; however it rested at the center. The full moon?s ethereal appearance above the eerie shadowed house sent shivers up Sasuke's spine. ?Well it?s now or never? Sasuke cautiously walked up the stairs and entered for the first time in two years his home. He leaned forward to set the cat down on the floor; the cat immediately went to explore the house leaving petite paw prints behind her in the heavily covered with dust floor. While watching the cat search the house Sasuke began thinking of different names for the cat. But soon gave up to tried to think of any good names.
The house had little to no changes to it, ?well unless you counted the fact there is no people or the dust everywhere.? Sasuke told himself as he tried and fail to calm his fast beating heart. His parent?s room was getting closer and closer; Sasuke guessed by the lack of disturbance to the rest of the house that they been killed in their room.
Sasuke?s hand started to shake ever so slightly as he reached out to open the door leading to room full of past memories. Glancing round his parent?s bedroom, Sasuke notice like the rest of the house had not changed much. However unlike the outside of the house where the rain, the sun and nature?s other gifts that had made the blood stains and chalk marks fade; the ones on the floor were still very noticeably and they told Sasuke so much about his parent?s death, like the fact his mother died first for her body had laid underneath his father or how the now brown blood stains show him that they die a little slower than he would have like, for a dead body can?t bleed.
And for the second time that night, Sasuke fell against the wall, unable to hold himself up anymore. He sat there on the dusty floor, his knees drawn up and tried eye staring in to something only he could see. Soon sleep over took the exhausted child.
