Uchiha Massacre

(3rd PoV) 

"Oh Itachi-kun! What happened to Izumi-chan!? Why is blood dripping from her eye?"

Izumi's mother worriedly came from the kitchen as Itachi entered with Izumi in his arms.

"Nothing much..."

Itachi muttered as Izumi started waking up.

"Mo-MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!"

Izumi fully woke up, screaming as she saw Itachi plunging his sword in her mother's heart, and ran away after seeing Izumi collapse after her sharingan obtained a unique pattern.

Today, every Uchiha was in the village due to Sasuke's birthday. Which was the perfect guise for launching a coup.

The important members of the coup, including his father, were in the Police office, whom Madara will take care of.

Itachi started a killing spree, killing everyone in his sight, going after one house after another. Men, women, children, and even newborns were not spared. Some pregnant women were stabbed in their stomach too.

Everyone screamed, but no one heard outside the clan compound heard anything due to the sound barrier.

"So this is the path you have chosen, Itachi."

Itachi, shocked at hearing the voice, turned around.

Fugaku was looking at him with his Mangekyo Sharingan.

This was dangerous. He didn't know what his father's ability were. Itachi knew that it wasn't possible to defeat his father even if he didn't have Mangekyo Sharingan. Afterall, no matter how much genius, Itachi was just a 13 year old kid in front of a seasoned veteran from Second and Third Shinobi War, and the leader of the strongest clan of the world.

Still, Itachi got ready to do his job. If even his father is left alive, he is capable of controlling the Kyuubi. And possibly even beat Madara.

"Come home. I am waiting."

Fugaku puffed away, revealing himself as a Shadow Clone.

Cautiously, Itachi entered his home, with Mangekyo active, ready to shoot Amaterasu.

But, both his parents were sitting patiently, backs facing him so that he can't see their faces.

"I a-"

Itachi faltered, his hands shaked for the first time in this mission. He tried to apologise, but Fugaku interrupted. 

"Don't be. Whatever path you chose, we are proud of you."

Fugaku said, with the same proud voice he has always used whenever he praised Itachi, even in this situation. 

"Itachi, you are a truly kind child."

Mikoto said, having readied herself to die at the hands of her 'kind' child. 

"Take care of Sasuke."

"I will."

*Sasuke gets 72 hours of torture genjutsu*

***************

Itachi lurked around the village for a while. He has killed the root operatives with him, one of whom was the person who killed Shisui.

He has killed everyone in clan compound, erased any memories of Izumi regarding the tensions between the clan and village, tortured Sasuke to hate him enough to not even contemplate suicide. 

And even created a failsafe in case Orochimaru tries to take over Izumi's body. He just hoped that her eyes will awaken abilities as he planned.

A whirl appeared beside him, and Madara appeared.

"I have done my job. Now, let's head to -"

"You wait outside the village, I have to take care of something else."

"...Whatever. Don't waste more of my time."

And Itachi disappeared into crows, making Madara to widen his eye slightly. So that was a crow clone.

One clone of Itachi, transformed as a cat, went to Shiori's home after making sure that the sensor ANBU was busy on the scene of Uchiha massacre.

He opened her eyes, and genjutsu'd her to forget about the poster he replaced, and plant the memories of the poster about Danzo.

He needed everything to be consistent to kill Danzo.

Then his clone puffed away, and real Itachi got the memories. 

Now, he had to do one important thing. Retrieve Shisui's second Sharingan.

Itachi didn't know if Danzo has transplanted Shisui's or someone else's Sharingan right now. The logical reason would be no. If he had to use Izanagi, loosing a regular three tomoe sharingan would be better, compared to loosing the Mangekyo eye.

So the location of the eye should be inside the ROOT base. 

Itachi watched the ANBU and Hokage going away with Sasuke and Izumi, and packing the dead bodies.

As they were away, Itachi appeared before Danzo in the ROOT uniform of the operative he has killed. 

As Itachi opened his Mangekyo, Danzo was startled. Quickly putting his two men in genjutsu to destroy the Uchiha bodies later using the jutsu he imbibed in them, and using the time in which Danzo froze, Itachi gauged out the eye along with the bandage.

'It's Shisui's eye!'

Sensing the familiar chakra, Itachi was relieved that he wouldn't have to raid the ROOT hideouts. 

Itachi quickly backed away from the Wind-style attack with the eye in his hand, and used Amaterasu.

"Aaargh!"

Danzo didn't have his Sharingan arm yet, so Danzo burned to death.

Itachi ran because of the commotion he has caused just now, and sent a crow to deliver the message to Hokage. 

After getting away from the village, Itachi winced as he implated Shisui's other eye in another one of his crows. 

He now has four crows with a Mangekyo Sharingan each. But they are necessary if he wants to protect Konoha, protect Sasuke.

The thought of implanting his father's eyes to get EMS didn't even cross his mind.

He will live the rest of his life with deteriorated eyes, and intense pain whenever he uses his eyes.

'I am sorry, Sasuke.'

"I am ready now, Madara."

"Follow me. I will take you to the Akatsuki."
