Uchiha's Butterfly

Chapter 2 - Kaname Uchiha

It's noon, a clear sky above Konoha, through Uchiha's clan district blows delicate warm wind. On the border of the district lays a middle-sized house with a small pond full of water lilies, next to it sits a six-year-old girl. Her disheveled shoulder-length black hair dancing on the wind, the unblemished sun-touched skin with little drops of sweat, her face scrunched in concentration, hands kept in tiger seal, trying hard to keep "this stupid" leaf on her forehead.

'Ha, I knew I could make it, my nemesis is finally defeated!' Kaname thought, half a second later leaf fell off her forehead landing on her small nose. "GAAH! Aniki I need your help!" She cried out throwing her hands up.

"What's up little squirt, are you still fighting with your leaf?" replied a black haired teen with a big grin on his face.

"Grr, I will bite you!" a young girl said jumping on her brother and like always, she was caught in the air dangling like a small cat from his arm with a big smile on her face. "Did you finish missions and training sooner today, will you help me?" Kaname pleaded.

This teen was 11-years-old, silky short black hair was combed to one side, his face calm with a small smile, which is always present when he is near his little sister. His height is 168cm (5,51ft), he has more of a swimmer type body than a muscular one. In the academy history, the only one who had a bigger fangirl club than him was Minato Namikaze, who was at the time already a Chūnin in active duty. Thanks to his training from when he was five, he became genin just after the Second Shinobi World War ended right after his eighth birthday.

"First things first, mom called you for dinner 15 minutes ago. Food is going to get cold, let's go." Ryuichi sighed lightly shaking his head, walking with his little sister still hanging down from his arm.

"Oups, is she mad?" asked the little girl scratching her head.

"Hahaha, maybe a little. Don't worry I have some news, I promise she will easily forget about you being late." Genin laughed, walking inside their home.

"We're home!" siblings said together, in an instant Ryuichi caught a flying wooden ladle just before it hit Kaname's forehead. "That's a little!?" whispered the scared little girl.

"K.A.N.A.M.E. I called you for dinner a long time ago, where have you been!?" asked a beautiful woman in her late twenties articulating every letter of her name.

"I'm sorry Mommy." Kaname said with a head hung low, "Aniki! Help she never calls me with my full name!" pleaded the girl in whisper hiding behind his back. From as long as she can remember other people had five ways calling her, most of them preferred "Kana-chan", most civilians weirded her out calling her "Uchiha-sama" and her brother always used "Little squirt" gaining her mock ire. Her mother always called her "Princess" or "Butterfly", apparently they were on a picnic 3 years ago and on Kaname's little finger sat a beautiful red butterfly, she then asked her mother if she can become one and the nickname just stuck.

"Mom I have got some news." said Ryuichi quickly seeing their mother's hand going for the harisen [AN: Google it, if you don't know what this is]. "In a week, I am going with my team to Sunagakure for Chūnin Exams." That stopped her hand.

"Are you sure it's safe to go that far from home?" worried Sachi asked her son.

"Mom, shinobi world is dangerous, Sunagakure are our allies, the road from one village to the other is patrolled. Don't worry I will be safe with my friends and captain Duy." assured Ryuichi.

"Aniki are you leaving!? For how long!? Where to!? Why!?" Kaname shot question after question at him, a single tear in her eye.

"Don't worry Little Squirt I will be back in a week or two. I'm going to another hidden village like Konoha." Replied her brother with a small grin. "Promise?" asked his younger sibling, "Of course, and do you remember what not to do?" asked Ryuichi. "Yeah, never break my promises!" Kaname replied with a smile from one ear to the other.

'Ehh I just can't be mad when I see this smile…' thought Sachi "Okay Ryu, make us proud again! Dinner is cold already, but let's go celebrate, I heard there is a newly opened Ramen Stall 'Ichir-something Ramen'!" shouted the woman with a smile on her face, walking out of their home.

"Have you seen that Little Squirt, as I said - she forgot. Let's go before she eats everything from Teuchi-san's storehouse" he whispered in his little sibling ear.
