This is my third fic and my third time trying to upload this because my microsoft word is locked and I hadn't divided this into chapters yet...

Summary: The three remaining Uchiha demons flee from Japan after Sasuke frees Itachi's bonded, Madara, from his eternal physical prison. They must blend in as humans at a school where demons and humans learn together in order to create a balance between the two species. While Itachi and his old mentor-made-mate struggle with unwanted lust and feeling, Sasuke tries to win the heart of his first love, a blonde he met in a picture. All Naruto wants to do is protect his friends from the 'Uchiha spell', but how can he expect them to stay away when he can't? Can he keep his secret from his brother?And Madara seems to have MORE than enough secrets of his own. ItaMada, SasuNaru, slight GaaNaru (but mostly close buddies)? You'll see, I'll make it happen! ;D

DISCLAIMER: If I owned 'NARUTO', ninjas would be having kinky sex on water-surfaces.

WARNINGS: Yaoi, violence, large doses of uncomfortable sexual tension, incest(itamada=incest?), Demon-stuff, confusion, and the general twists and turns in a story that make your head hurt.

Enjoy. Review?

Chapter one: Good Ideas and Bad Dreams

(Itachi PoV)

I sit alone in my self-established part of the Uchiha complex toying with the ancient necklace that rests on my collar bone, waiting for my sight to come back. I shut down my senses and take calming breathes, closing my eyes as every sound is muffled, every touch dulled and every smell is faint. Inhaling through my nose, I feel the corner of my lip turn upwards slightly; I can still smell death. Even with these weak, human senses, I can feel the physical lives of all the Uchihas slip through my fingers as the bodies hit the earth and their blood flows out as if eager to escape the corpse of its owner. I can still remember their souls one by one flying into the urn I had at my side, their spirits destined to eternal torment in a place worse than hell for the likes of my clan.

My clan.

No, from the moment I was born everyone knew I, Uchiha Itachi, was not a part of this clan, that I was different. The clan knew it too, they just hadn't decided if it was in the good way or the bad way.

Well, I sure as hell hope they know now.

I open my eyes to escape the memories, giving a content sigh as my sight seems to have returned. I should probably lay off sharingan when alone at home. I have to save my energy after all, right? I'll have to see my little brother in a few days, the first time we meet face to face since I rescued/kidnapped him from the snake demon, Orochimaru.

After I broke the little spell he had over my brother, I brought him to the Uchiha complex and placed him in an unused, empty (naturally…) home. One that happened to be on the other side of the Uchiha complex from me (as cool and collected as I seem, I'm no fan of awkward situations…).

I've checked on his house once, only to find him missing. At first I panicked, my hands gripping my hair and my eyes wide, I begin searching the house. I gave him our old house, thinking he would be more comfortable there than in any other, so I first check his room, then our parents, then every other room.

Right as I get to the kitchen I slow to a stop and analyze the situation from my brother's point of view and realize he's definitely not in this house, or even the complex for that matter. Probably out sorting his thoughts, exploring the old town, walking through the forest, who knows?

At this point I'm glad no one is around to see the '…oh.' Expression on my face after I realize this.

But, it's been two weeks and I haven't seen him since then. It's probably for the better, because as I lay down to sleep, I have a strange feeling that a lot of stuff is about to go down and quite a few changes are going to occur. Does it have anything to do with Sasuke coming back into my life?

'Maybe…' I think as my mind slips away and I lose consciousness .

I wake up at around four in the afternoon, never being one for mornings. I sit up in my king-sized bed running my hands through my damp hair, then running them over my sweaty face. I didn't freak out this time. Usually after reliving that nightmare, I wake up hyperventilating, my heart almost pounding out of my chest, the works. I think back on it, as if I could dissect it, because it's almost never the same.

'Squelch!' Is all I hear as my katana slices through the physical bodies of familiar and unfamiliar clan members. I race through the Uchiha complex, having been told to get this done quickly. I pause, feeling someone behind me, too close, this is it.

'Squelch!'

But the ugly sound effect doesn't belong to me. I look back and I'm face to face with an Uchiha just before he falls, leaving me face to face with his murderer. Anticipation bubbles to the brim of my brain as I open my eyes to find older ones mirroring them. As soon as I can recognize that insane look in those eyes, I realize it's the very phantom who's raised me. We stare a bit longer until he gives that eccentric smile of his and I turn into a lost kitten and, in a moment of thoughtlessness, attempt to embrace a non physical being. It's really quite strange, all I am doing is hugging the clothing around his ghostly being. That's probably why he wears so much clothing, to make it feel like he has a real body under them, not just an Illusion. I feel his gloved hands wrap around my back, and I rest my head against his armored shoulder and the side-turned face of his mask.

We hear the other Uchiha discovering their dead family members, heading this way. We part and I take off running to confront the other Uchiha dead on, feeling for his presence behind me. By the time everyone is silenced, I find my parents preparing to fight the intruder who is slaughtering their clan. I don't remember putting the mask of the weasle back on, but when I took it off to reveal myself, their faces were almost hilarious! My mother had a confused, unsure expression, which quickly turned to horror as she realized I was the one taking everyone out. My father's was simply that of fright, then inextinguishable anger.

They were about to take a step forward to defend themselves when they realized I wasn't alone. They were extremely unsure now. Wouldn't you be if you had to fight for your life against your genius son and one of the oldest, most powerful demons alive?

My father broke out of his stupor first ,"Uchiha Madara." He says looking up at my transparent sensei. Madara simply nodded his head in acknowledgement before going off to the side to watch as I take my time killing them. My father charges first, aiming his katana at my neck, sharingan spinning wildly. I duck under his sharp weapon to slice into his abdomen. This would only hurt him, and let him know that I am truly intending to kill him in cold blood. This is when it became serious.

He fought hard, bouncing back to protect my mother when I got too close, trying to make me think she wasn't a threat. I was completely aware of how powerful she was, and I watched as she eyed Madara warily gripping her own katana with sharingan taking everything in. Right as I was about to finish my father, she jumps up and attacks in the strangest way, her form looked so foreign compared to that of an Uchiha attack. Pushing my katana under my fathers chin and into his brain(to end things on a quick, pleasant note), I turn in horror as I find that she's not after me, but my sensei, the one I am destined to be with. My face changes completely into my most feared form as I race after her airborn being, quickly getting ahead of her and put my katana up making her impale herself. My face was in shock as I look upon her features, once onyx orbs trapped in mangekyou with deep black surrounding her eyes similar to a bandit's mask. Her skin had a sickly palour to it and her teeth and nails were elongated in an almost beast like way.

I look back at my sensei for an explanation only to find him with very similar features looking upon something in the doorway. I follow his eyes and find a short sillouette of a boy and the salty scent of tears… I looked back to my master for some kind of help, only to back away after laying eyes on him.

Madara's mask had been removed to reveal not a ghostly form, but a very physical one. That wasn't the only problem, though. The structure of my sensei's face had changed, and I could feel my eyes widen, taking in the slightly foreign appearance of his face.

A once comforting appearance(atleast in my oppinion) had become more beastly than my mother's. Sensei had the same skin, white as could possibly be, and his hands had gained long, deadly claws that were now caressing my face with feather-light touches. I follow the long arm up to his face with my eyes and bite the inside of my lip as we make brief eye contact. I can't seem to keep my gaze even and my eyes drop to his mouth. I chew my lip a bit harder when he smirks, then reveals long, white teeth, then licked his lips and closed his mouth in a frown. Why did his smile fade? Itachi swallowed, not sure what to think of this, before noticing that those eyes had stopped looking into his and were now looking toward the door way where a shadow morphed.

Itachi's neck almost snapped as he whipped his head back to Sasuke, only to find that the crying child had grown into a tall, dark and deadly weapon, pulling out his own katana and pointing it towards his older brother...

That had to be one of the weirdest memory-like dreams I've had of that incident. I mean, sure, my mother is always the one to do weird shit like that in the corner, but she's never been that active in the dream. But Madara-sensei is never even in them, so that probably explains most of the insanity.

(POV change)

He frowned at the fact that Sasuke was in it. That was usually the part that made Itachi wake up in a frenzy. He hated the image of a heartbroken Sasuke standing there scared and confused, but at least this dream didn't go there. The end of it was what made his brain hurt...

Itachi got up, stripped and got in the shower to wash away the dream.

After he got out, dried off and changed into some decent clothing, he waltzed into the main room and turned on the plasma screen. Oh yeah, he kept up with technology. He found the news channel for lack of something better to watch and needing to keep up with the humans. The woman on the screen at first had a serious face, finishing a report about some gruesome crime scene, at which Itachi scoffed. Then her face changed all together as she began a cheerful rant about school just starting up and how the students were kicking off the new school year.

Itachi flashed back to his schooling and grimaced. The Uchiha clan council refused to let him attend a school with other creatures, even fellow Uchiha. He grew up alone and isolated, only able to bond socially(if you could call it that) with his private teachers, and for a short time, his friend Shisui.

Itachi winced, 'Well, those bonds ended in a healthy manner... nothing says 'Thanks for being my friend!' like mass murder..."

Would he have been any different if he had associated with other Uchiha? Other clans? Humans?

Would Sasuke?

He didn't want Sasuke to go through life the way he did. Itachi's human life was aged at twenty-four, a time when most have a healthy social and love life, human or not. The only friends that Itachi had obtained were through an organization that killed people for money and power... As for his love-life, it was non-existent. He and one of his two friends slept together simply to relieve tension.

He didn't want assassination and business-booty-calls in his brother's future...

He was brainstorming when he tuned back into the news. Perhaps high school is a good way to have Sasuke grow a soul...

Itachi's brow twitched in thought as he mumbled to himself."Sasuke is still younger looking, I mean he hasn't started the process of freezing yet, he's still growing. I could get him to go to school like others his age... He probably won't want to be surrounded by humans though… But the Hyuuga's younglings attend teachings at private schools, so there has to be other clans that do so. Maybe he won't be so...dark once he has companions. I for one was a lot less lonely once I joined Akatsuki and met Deidara and Kisame…"

Itachi leaned back on the sofa, turning the television off to think.

"This could be good. There are no young insiders in the Akatsuki and there are bound to be all sorts of creatures and enemies that have their own claws dug into the youth of the more secret organizations, and where else would clans send their youth to manifest?…"

It was settled. Uchiha Sasuke was going to Highschool in a mission to blend in with the humans, find clan-youth involved in any organizations and to make him less of a soul-sucking bastard.

Itachi gave an evil smirk. It had been awhile since he could mess with his little brother. First, though, he had to find him.

Itachi grabbed his keys and walked to his car, driving off into the evening with a strange feeling in his gut.

Oh. My. Self. What's gonna happen? D;

I think this chapter is WAY too short, but hey, its kind of a prologue! Anyways, was it any good? Please review! I need it!
