Naruto: Spring's Eyes

Chapter 2 - Haru Uchiha

Konohagakure, Uchiha Compound.

In the far east of the clan, an average-sized house could be seen in the eerie night still with the lights on.

The individuals inside the house wore a frantic and panicking expression on their faces, shouting and screams could be heard making their sleeping neighbors to be rudely awaken from their beauty sleep by the commotion.

In the house, inside a room. The source of all this commotion came from here, a woman lying on a bed while a midwife was ȧssisting her childbirth.

"Come on honey just a little bit more...", Beside the woman, a man sweating buckets was consoling his wife, wiping his sweat of his face from the nervousness and the pain that he is receiving from the herculian grip of his wife.

"Shut up Hiroshi! This is all your fault... I swear if I... agghh... hear your voice again I'll rip your dɨċk off your groin!!", Midway her sentence she was interupted by the pain she was receiving, but she still continued to vent all her anger to her husband.

Hearing such words from his wife, Hiroshi who will soon to be a father suddenly got a chill ran down his spine through his family jewels.

Afraid that his wife would do what she said he shut up his mouth and continued to endure the pain from gripped hands silently while releasing some uncontollable grunts.

Meanwhile the midwife witnessing how cowardly Hiroshi was being shook her head, she sighed and thought, 'Men...'

Shaking her head from such distractions, she continued to do her job and focused until she saw the head popped up, she shouted, "I see the head! Come on push!"

The woman already getting tired from the midwife's annoying shouting, breath in and vigorously released it, "AHHHHH!! Get out off me nowwwww!!"

...

Uwwaaaa! Uwaa! Uwaaaaa!

Suddenly the sound of a baby crying could be heard, hearing such noise was like a melody to the woman, all the pain and frustation she was experiencing vanished the moment she heard her child's cry.

The midwife passed the baby to Hiroshi, she smiled and said, "It's a boy".

Hiroshi looked at his child still crying its little ȧss out. The exhaustion on his face vanished and what replaced was a smile, like a heavy boulder was lifted up his shoulders, Hiroshi now could breath easily as he craddled his son.

Akari smiled and murmured as she is too weary, "Let me see him", She stretched out her hands as she recieved her child from her husband.

The moment the newborn baby was in his mother's embrace he quited down, he slowly opened his eyes. He curiously looked at the woman infront of his face then closed his eyes again and slept.

The midwife seeing such a wonderful scene of the family smiled and asked them, "What will you name the new Little Uchiha member Akari?"

Akari looked at the window and said, "Tomorrow is the start of spring... So I shall name him Haru... Haru Uchiha".

Hiroshi have no problem about it as he too felt the name suiting for his son.

Akari Uchiha closed her eyes while the little guy Haru is still in her embrace.

...

4 years later.

My name is Akari Uchiha, the younger sister of the current Clan Head of the Uchiha Clan.

Anyway at the moment my husband Hiroshi is with our son in the backyard demomstrating to him the clan's...

*Vhoom*

Akira was interupted from her writing from the hot windy air that suddenly entered their house through the window coming from their backyard.

She sighed and ignored that and continued writing:

The Clan's traditional coming of age jutsu: The Fire Ball Jutsu.

...

'Backyard'

On a medium-size pond a father and son pair could be seen.

The 27-years old Hiroshi was demonstrating proudly the clan's jutsu to his son, when he was done he turned towards his son and said with a prideful smile, "That my boy is called the Fire Ball Jutsu, although it is too early for you to learn that technique don't be discourage as I, your father will teach you and guide you the steps on how to master it"

Looking at his father impatiently, seemingly urging him to start how to do that, he began to be a bit jumpy as his eyes was fully on his father.

Cough*

Hiroshi coughed and said with a serious tone, "Now my son to learn such a wonderful technqiue, you first need to know the one fundemental thing to do a jutsu, do you know what that fundemental thing is?"

Not ready by such a unexpected question, Haru was surprised and began to think cutely for a moment, "Hmmm... Cookies? No! Milk? No!! Meat? Hmmm not it either...".

Hiroshi with his good pair of ears heard all the mutterings of his son, he began to sweat as he thought, 'Is food all the things that he knows?'

As if realization had dawned on him, Haru's chubby face lit up and he said excitedly towards his father, "RAMEN!!"

"Thats right! Rame... Cough*"

...

..

Hiroshi risisted the urge to smack the head of his son. He wiped the sweat off his head and helplessly glanced at his son, "It's not ramen, it's Chakra control!"

"Ohhh! Chakra control... what's that?"

Hiroshi was helpless to his son's ignorance, but it is expected as he is just a 4-year old boy.

He patiently explained what chakra control was to his son, how important it was, and how significant it will be during battles.

He picked up a fallen leaf and held it up for Haru to see.

"To make progress with your chakra control you first needed to know how to use your chakra", He placed the leaf on to his forehead and leaved it sticking there, shockingly not dropping even though he is literally making the leaf off balance, "As you can see here Little Haru, the leaf is not falling from my forehead", Haru nodded.

"To leave the leaf stick on to any places on your body you need to let your chakra envelope it to keep it from falling".

"Now you give it a try"

Haru picked up a leaf from the ground and placed it on to his forehead like how his father had done it.

"Concentrate Little Haru, try to feel something warm inside you, located somewhere in your stomach and guide it"

"Guide it through your forehead and let it concentrate on the spot where you placed the leaf on"

Listening to his father, he closed his eyes and fully concentrated as he tried to feel the 'warm' thing that his have just father said, inside his little chubby tummy.

After a minute, Haru could still not feel anything 'warm' so he again tried to feel it.

Hiroshi knows that it is difficult for his son to do this as he himself, though only have an average talent, needed one and a half week to feel chakra for the first time.

His goal for today was just to teach his son how to feel chakra, as he already anticipated that Haru wouldn't feel it in his first try.

Another minute passed, Hiroshi was about to tell his son to stop it and was planning to give more advice when something he didn't expect happend.

...

Haru again place the leaf on to the surface of his forehead, this time not letting it go so fast like his previous tries. With one hand keeping the leaf from falling, he closed his eyes, now only darkness he could see and he then began to try and feel the disobedient 'warm' thing inside of him.

He thought with innocence, 'Is this it? It this what papa called chakra? Papa said that I need to guide this chakra and hug the leaf, but how, that is the question".

He looked at the blue small flame and thought, 'What if I'll kindly ask it? It'll probably work as mama said that you have to ask someone politely'

With this kind of thought running through his little brain, he resolve himself and began to 'move' closer to the blue little flame.

"Anoo.. Mr.Flame-san could you please help me and hug the leaf on my forehead?", Haru began to speak inside his thoughts, if his father would know what his son was currently thinking then he would have surely smack his son from his innocent ignorance.

For a second nothing happend, but then the blue flame suddenly began to squirm and move, as if it was obeying Little Haru's request. Producing a little tentacle Haru's chakra moved to the place of his forehead, it then eventually enveloped the leaf.

Seeing such unexpected success, he briliantly 'smiled' and bowed down, "Thank you Flame-san"

...

The moment he saw his son's hand removed from his forehead, Hiroshi saw chakra enveloping the leaf like what he have just instructed, he dumbly thought, 'WADU HEK!?'
