[ X - Adult: No readers under 18. Contains Graphic Adult Themes/Extreme violence. ]

Both Naruto and Sasuke were at a lost for words; their jaws hanging low in astonishment. Had this guy just claimed to be Sasuke's father. As far as Sasuke could tell, his father was dead to him. Though he remembered when Itachi told him he was still alive, but that didn't change the fact that he no longer knew this ghost standing before him. It was simply impossible for this person to be his father, not after all he has been told. Not after all he had seen and heard. And just like an ocean wave, memories washed back over him...

‘A small boy with large, excited eyes bounced into the kitchen, quickly tugging at his father's sleeve as the elder man sat there reading his paper. "Otou-san, take me to the park!" He begged happily, pulling more urgently on his father's clothing. His face brightened at the carefree smile that graced his father's lips that very moment. The man slowly set down his newspaper and glanced at his son with such affection before lightly brushing the hair on top of Sasuke's head. This had easily made the boy more hopeful of his father's acceptance.

"Sasuke, you know I have work to do soon. You're old enough to play by yourself." Fugaku chuckled warmly.

Sasuke's face immediately softened with disappointment as he let go of his father's sleeve. "But Itachi is a whole lot more older than me and you still play with him." The boy mumbled. He never did understand why his father would rather play with Itachi than him. he guessed it was because Itachi was twelve and all the more closer to being a grown up. And adults always liked to hang out with other adults. He noticed his father's sudden frown when he mentioned his brother. But this hadn't stopped Sasuke from prodding more. "Please Otou-san, won't you play with me like Itachi? I can do better than him, just give me a chance." Sasuke offered.

Without warning, both males suddenly jerked the heads toward the entrance when they heard a loud crash. Sasuke gapped curiously as he saw his brother standing in the kitchen doorway with a petrified look on his face. He was more paler than usual and he was just frozen, a broken dish now scattered the floor in pieces where he stood. At the time, Sasuke had thought nothing of it rather than his brother was jealous he was trying to steal their father away. But he hadn't the right o think that when Fugaku rose from his seat the next moment and started to pick up the pieces of the plate Itachi had dropped. "You should be more careful Itachi, we won't want you to get hurt now would we?" His father replied softly, only making Sasuke more angry.

The small boy was tempted to punch Itachi since once again he was stealing all the attention. It was his fault for dropping the plate, but their father had so eagerly jumped to help the idiot. And all Itachi could do was glower at the man as if he was the one that dropped it. It pissed Sasuke off, Itachi was so ungrateful and spoiled. "Sasuke." His father called out, snapping the boy out of his jealousy. "Can you go get a broom? Itachi go to your room." The man order mildly. Sasuke couldn't help but smirk as he went to retrieve the broom. It was about time Itachi got punished for something he did. Kami knows that arrogant prick deserved it.

That night Sasuke had been smiling to himself. Their mother had went out with friends again, so as usual his father had sent him to bed earlier. But he couldn't care less about that, he was actually pretty pleased with that. Usually it meant that Itachi was going to be punished. Of course, Sasuke liked it whenever he thought Itachi deserved to be punished and then other times he was confused and didn't see why Itachi was being punished. And tonight, Itachi definitely deserved it. Yesterday daddy had taken Itachi to the zoo, but they told Sasuke he had to stay home with mommy. Sasuke was always jealous when Itachi left with their father during the day. Once Sasuke had over heard his father speaking with friends, telling he would bring Itachi along. Sasuke didn't think it was fair that Itachi got to meet their father's friends but he didn't. He only figured that Itachi had went to see them again that day too.

This was exactly why he was grinning wildly right now. His bedroom was right next to Itachi's, so he could here his brother crying through the walls. Their father had just gotten finished 'punishing' him, which usually left Itachi in this condition. Sasuke snuck out of bed when he was sure his father was back in his own room. He did feel rather sorry for Itachi though, he didn't think a beating should last well over an hour. He gently knocked on the door and let himself in slowly. Immediately his father frozen as he stood in front of his closet. "Sasuke, what are you doing up?" he asked worriedly.

"I couldn't sleep." He half lied. He hadn't tried to sleep but it wasn't like he would be able to when Itachi cried like that. "Can I sleep with you?" He asked softly. Sasuke could have never been happier to see his father smiling and then a nod. And without a moment's hesitation, the small boy crawled into his father's bed and beneath the blankets. "You'll take me to the zoo one day, right?" He asked absentmindedly. His father paused for a moment as if he really had to think about that question.

"Well, of course I will Sasuke." He answered after changing his clothes and climbing into bed next to his younger son. "For you...anything." He whispered. Sasuke smiled and quickly wrapped his arms around Fugaku's waist as he nuzzled into his father's arms.

"Good...but Itachi can't come." Sasuke added. Not that he really expected Itachi to come. Usually after nights like this, Itachi stayed in bed all day saying he was sick. Mom never believed him though and made him go to school anyway. "Otou-san...when I get older, you'll play with me more, won't you?" He asked, titling his head up to look into his father's unusually sad looking eyes.

"Why?" Fugaku asked. He didn't realize how cruel the question had sounded to the smaller boy. But he really did love Sasuke, and he was simply too pure to corrupt. He wanted to keep Sasuke in this peaceful fantasy as long as he could and save him from the harsh reality of the life.

"Because...I love you." Sasuke answered back. "Why should Itachi be the only one who gets to spend time with you? I love you more than he does." Sasuke huffed, blowing up his cheeks quickly. "I want you to love me. Love me like you do Itachi." That's all I want...he thought.’

Sasuke shook the thought from his mind. "You can't be my father!" He quickly lashed back. "He's dead..." He mumbled lowly, "and if he insist than he's in prison." He hated these words. They felt like venom on his lips. Itachi told him the truth, and as much as he didn't want to believe it, it all made perfect sense.

Fugaku was taken aback by how hastily Sasuke had denied him, but he had suspected this. "They let me out Sasuke." He explained in a soft voice. He tried to step forward but Sasuke hurriedly shoved the door. Fugaku caught it just before it shut. "I'm telling the truth Sasuke! I just wanted to see you again. As soon as I got out I came straight here. I came to find you!"

Naruto suddenly felt like the fifth wheel. How could anything make him feel more small? Sasuke just looked like he had a nightmare and Naruto didn't know what to do to help him. It scared him to see how frightened Sasuke suddenly was about all this, but he knew the teen had every right to be. This was the very guy that got put away for raping Itachi. If Sasuke was taking it this bad, he could only imagine how terrified Itachi will be when he finds out.

"Go away!" Sasuke screamed. "We don't want lying bastards like you here!" He pushed the door harder, trying to shut the man back out of his life. just when everything seemed well with the world, this had to happen. His whole haven was crumbling beneath his feet.

"I'm sorry Sasuke! I never meant to hurt you!" Fugaku yelled out, pushing the door the opposite way. Naruto fled to the door and started to assist his boyfriend, but it did no good in keeping the man out. Before they knew it, they were being forced back a few steps as his father burst through the door. "I don't expect you to forgive me for what I have done Sasuke, but I really have changed. All I want is my sons." Naruto gasped when he saw Fugaku's arms spread around Sasuke and pull him into an embrace. The boy naturally struggled. He tried to push himself away by shoving at his father's shoulders, but it didn't work. "These past few years have been hell for me Sasuke...because I didn't have my family around any more..." He whispered, burying his head into the teen's silky, black hair.

"Well you better get use to it, because we aren't coming back to you!" Sasuke shouted back, his pushing becoming more weak and useless as he was losing his nerve. This was his father. Someone he had loved and trusted for so long who suddenly disappeared without his acknowledgement. And all of a sudden he was back. It just seemed too fast, too unbelievable. "We don't need you anymore!" Sasuke yelled. His nails, clawed tightly into his father's arms, slowly loosened and a muffled sob escaped him.

Naruto felt his whole heart just plummet into his stomach. This was the first time he had ever seen Sasuke cry, and it terrified him to death. Sasuke sounded and looked so weak and helpless right now. But anyone who had to face the ghost of the past, would be so vulnerable. The blond didn't know what he could do. He certainly wasn't strong enough to take the elder man on by himself and he didn't think he could get Sasuke away quick enough.

Sasuke's arms slowly slipped around his father's waist and he gripped the man's shirt tightly. "You never loved me..."He whispered with a soft cry. "All that time you ignored me...but I still loved you." Fugaku gently tried to sooth the boy and petted his hair repeatedly. "And then you left suddenly...I cried because I thought you were dead!" When he was younger he just thought his father abandoned him on purpose. But seeing how Itachi acted after his father's disappearance he began to think that it was really all Itachi's fault. That creep had ran his father away. He hated Itachi when he should have hated his father, than what was he doing now?!

"I'm sorry I hurt you Sasuke...but I only wanted to protect you." Fugaku replied softly. It was the truth; he had wanted to protect the boy from himself and what he did. It had been better for Sasuke to think he was dead at least he would still have one family member that still loved him and wanted him back. "I promise to never do that again...I won't leave you again."

Naruto just wanted to disappear right now. He just felt so out of place. He would fell the same way even if he didn't know the truth about Fugaku. It would be because...he didn't have a father anymore. So he couldn't possibly relate to any of this. He wouldn't know how relieved and yet sad Sasuke was for having his father come back. But he bet it felt great. To have a real family.

The blond couldn't stand being the nosey bystander any longer so he silently slipped away. He wanted outside on the back porch and just sat himself down on the steps that sunk into the sand of the shore. "Stupid teme." He whispered to himself. He didn't like being ignored himself and he didn't trust Sasuke's father at all. Just the way the guy looked at him screamed evil intentions. But he was sure he wouldn't be able to convince Sasuke of anything without evidence. Sasuke was so stubborn about these type of things. yet, Naruto couldn't blame him. He, himself wouldn't be so eager to betray his father and believe in someone else's words.

Naruto lingered out there longer than he had hoped, but he just couldn't force himself to go in there again. He had a feeling that Sasuke probably wanted some alone time with his old man. After all they hadn't seen each other in several years. The blond ha been so trapped in thought he hadn’t heard footsteps along the wood of the porch. "Naruto..." Naruto nearly jumped out of his skin but turned around to face a sympathetic looking Sasuke. "Don't just go like that dobe." Sasuke sighed. Naruto frowned and almost pouted at the cruel directions. "I'm sorry Naruto...I guess it was pretty uncomfortable seeing that." Sasuke explained, a tint of pink evident on his cheeks.

"Oh no, of course not. I don't feel weird at all after seeing my best friend and boyfriend blubber like a baby in the arms of a rapist who so happens to be his father." Naruto said warily as he quickly turned away. He was sure Sasuke was glaring daggers at him for the mockery, but he personally didn't care anymore. "You're the real idiot Sasuke." Naruto muttered. "You just welcome him back with opened arms after what he did to your family, after what he did to Itachi. I don't care if he says he's changed, he may still be-"

"He's my father Naruto!" Sasuke barked back instantly. "He's my flesh and blood, my family..." Sasuke finished. He glared at the ground. "But I guess you wouldn't understand anything like that." Naruto's lips tightened in a frown and he jumped to his feet. He wasn't going to just take these insults from Sasuke.

"That's right Sasuke I wouldn't understand because I've never had a real family in my life. Just being tossed around from abusive parents to 'I don't give a damn' guardians doesn't make me an expert in judging personality." Naruto growled. Sasuke just never changed. He was still trying to push him away like before.

"You know that's not what I mean Naruto!" Sasuke exclaimed. "I just think I know my father a little better than you do. He's not a complete jerk you know. He's actually a great guy if you get to know him." But supposed Naruto wouldn't understand that. That stupid dobe sorry Itachi played on him sunk deep.

"I hope I'm not intruding on anything important." Fugaku suddenly interrupted. Both boys stared at him in the doorway. Naruto could have kicked him for listening in.

Naruto narrowed his eyes and marched over. "No you didn't, just Sasuke being an ass again." He grunted before stumping off. Fugaku watched Naruto walk away, but he was inwardly smirking. It was about time the little blond boy went home, he didn't want anyone in between him and his family.

"Naruto!" Sasuke was about to go after him but he was stopped by his father. "Damn it. I can't do anything right by him." He murmured, making Fugaku arch up a curious brow.

"Am I to understand this happens often between you two?" He asked, trying to sound like the concerned father Sasuke had wanted him to be. He was a little curious about why Sasuke would bring one of his friends all the way down here. And he had earlier noticed when Sasuke left to come out here, that the boy had a tattoo of the other's name on his neck.

"Sort of..." Sasuke sighed. "I'm a really sucky boyfriend." He mumbled to himself, yet Fugaku could easily hear it. If the teen had actually been looking up to his father he might have saw the surprised and almost dangerous look his father gave to that information. He had no idea Sasuke would have himself a boyfriend. In fact it angered Fugaku to know his son could fall for any other male than him.

“I’ll go talk to him you want Sasuke.” Fugaku offered with a kind smile. He was especially fortunate Sasuke had accepted his apology and his existence during their conversation. He knew winning over Sasuke would be too easy. But now he had some other problem to take care of.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea. He doesn’t trust you at all.” Sasuke explained. He knew Naruto would bust an artery if he knew he sent his father to clean up his mess.

“Nonsense, I’ll get through to him.” Just as Fugaku was starting to walk back off into the house, Sasuke stopped him.

“Otou-san…have you seen Itachi lately?” He had to ask. He wasn’t sure his father would still be alive if Itachi ran into him. Actually, Sasuke curious to see how Itachi would take it to seeing their father again. He couldn’t help but feel special because his father came to see him first.

“Actually I visited home first to find you both, but neither one of you were there. I heard from a few friends of yours that you were up here.” Fugaku lied with cunning convenience. Sasuke nodded and let then man go. He really did hope Itachi was alright. Maybe Itachi ran away because he heard about their father being let out. It sounds like a stupid thing to do, but being that it was Itachi, nothing would surprise Sasuke.

Fugaku smirked widely as he spotted the angry blond roaming the kitchen again. All because of Sasuke, he didn’t get to make his celebratory ramen. He might as well now since he had nothing better to do than yell at his boyfriend. “You two must be really close.” Fugaku stated, startling Naruto instantly. The blond quickly turned around, grabbing his chest that was bounding rapidly. “I mean I’ve never seen Sasuke take such a fancy to anyone other than family.” He explained, approaching the blond.

“So what is it to you?!” Naruto hissed, stepping back.

“It means everything to me.” Fugaku closed the space between them and lightly cupped the blonde’s chin. “Because I’m the only man worth loving in my sons’ lives. And that means you and that blue fellow…need to stay out of my way.” Fugaku replied seriously. Naruto’s sudden expression of surprise only made Fugaku smile more.

“Kisame?” Naruto repeated. This creep had met Kisame, then he had to have seen Itachi. “Where is Itachi?!” Naruto asked eagerly.

“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Fugaku cooed innocently. “But you should be worrying more about yourself than others.” Without hesitation, Fugaku grabbed the boy around his neck. Naruto didn’t even get the chance to scream out before he was violently being strangled. It didn’t take all that long for him to lose enough air to fall unconscious. “Sorry little Naruto.” He chuckled. “But I can’t have you interfering anymore.”

--------------------------------

Kisame was having a heart attack. Who knows what could have happened to Sasuke or Itachi? He had finally made it down to the coast where Sasuke and Naruto were still suppose to be. But getting through the tourist filled streets and traffic was nearly impossible. He gave up only after thirty minutes. It would be quicker just to walk. He hurried out of his car and started to run down the sidewalks.

He didn’t care for all of the startled people he was pushing out the way. But one particular group of people caught his attention when he had to slow down for a breath. He couldn’t help but over here three girls gossiping in a small circle.

“I swear, I swear no one got a lick of sleep in my building last night. Some guy was screaming all night. I got nightmares from it. Rumor has been going around that there was a murder, but everyone was too afraid to even call the cops or report it to the landlady.” The first woman whispered.

“Why the hell not?! Someone could have gotten hurt!” Another exclaimed.

“Are you crazy?! Do you know what type of trouble she would get herself into if the murder found out it was her?” The third woman whined. “It’s just better to keep your mouths shuts during things like this. Playing hero is only going to get yourselves killed.”

Kisame felt a raging fury in him. This seemed much too like a coincidence. If he found out that very hotel was the one Itachi was being kept in, he was going to kill all these woman for not doing a damn thing. He quickly budded in, “what hotel was it?!” He asked urgently. The three stared at him for a moment, as if they didn’t expect someone to actually hear them when they were pretty bad whisperers.

“Uh… the Aiko Inn.” The first woman answered. And before she had a chance to blink, the speedy man was off.

“Itachi…I’ll find you.”

To Be Continued…

A/N: This fic his almost done. The next chapter will be the second to the last chapter, so prepare yourselves for an ending and more lemon of course. Did you like this chapter any? I wanted to give you a picture of how Sasuke saw everything back then before the fic was over. I feel really bad for Sasuke, he will have to live with knowing he hated his brother for getting raped by his father. Sure he didn’t know that was happening, but he was always blaming Itachi for everything when Itachi was only the victim here.

Also a special reviewer has brought it to my attention that most fics don't have a threesome with a plot that isn't a one-shot. I think that is quite entertaining, so I am eager to take the challenge. I so want to try and see if I can manage it. So any coupling suggestions if you will.

Next Chapter: Fugaku’s has Sasuke alone and to himself. But was has happened to Itachi? Has he killed him and disposed of the body or just left him there for later use. Either way, Kisame is desperate to find his lover and torture then kill the heartless jerk that did this to him. And what about Naruto?
