The evening sun bled gold across the Uchiha compound, shadows stretching long as three boys sat together beneath the fading light.
A boy with warm, gentle eyes and spiky black hair leaned back, wearing a smile that always seemed to put others at ease. This was Shisui Uchiha, the "older brother."
Beside him, a much younger boy sat with his back straight, his onyx eyes far too calm and mature for his age. His neatly tied hair framed a face that already held the weight of responsibility. This was Itachi Uchiha, the "younger brother."
And in between them was another presence—a boy slightly taller than Itachi, sharp black eyes often glimmering with curiosity. His aura was quiet, detached, almost aloof. This was Indra Uchiha, the "middle brother."
The three shared only two things in common—the Will of Fire and their endless training.
Shisui's voice broke the quiet, his usual cheer replaced by a rare heaviness.
"It looks like… a coup will happen soon."
The words made Itachi's brows furrow. His tone was sharp, carrying the conviction of someone older than his years.
"These people… they're blinded by narrow visions."
Indra's expression darkened with grief as he added softly,
"If only everyone had the mindset of the Third Hokage… this village would already be at peace."
Itachi and Shisui nodded. They were devoted children of the Will of Fire, shaped by the teachings of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
In terms of strength, Shisui—already a Mangekyō Sharingan wielder—stood highest. Itachi followed with his three tomoe, while Indra lingered behind with only a single tomoe. Yet, Indra carried a different weight—the legacy of his blood.
His father, Uchiha Sen, had been a prodigy of the Third Great Ninja War. Though he appeared only five times on the battlefield, each mission earned greater merit than even the Fourth Hokage. His mysterious death, whispered to have been caused by poison, left scars on the clan.
Indra's mother, Uchiha Emiko, was a jōnin praised for her dominance in battle. But both parents were gone, leaving their child in Fugaku's care.
Despite such lineage, Indra's Sharingan remained at a single tomoe. It was as though a curse clung to him, stunting his growth. Still, with Sen's inheritance and Fugaku's protection, Indra had never known hunger or want.

That evening, the Uchiha household glowed with the warmth of home. Inside the largest house in the compound, a dinner table had been set.
Seated were Fugaku, his wife Mikoto, their sons Itachi and Sasuke, and the adopted Indra.
Mikoto laid out steaming bowls of yakizakana—salt-grilled fish, with sides of miso soup and rice. The savory aroma filled the room.
"Itadakimasu!"
They began to eat, chopsticks moving in quiet rhythm, until Sasuke broke the silence with a burst of energy.
"Brother! Since you're back, let's train together!"
Itachi's lips curved into a faint, awkward smile, but Mikoto leaned over and tugged Sasuke's ear.
"Ow! Mother, that hurts!"
"Then hush and eat. You can talk later."
The boy puffed his cheeks before returning to his food. Indra stifled a laugh.
Itachi finally spoke, his voice soft yet tinged with distance.
"Sasuke… I'll be leaving for another mission tomorrow."
Sasuke froze, chopsticks hanging midair. His voice rose in protest, but Mikoto's sharp cough silenced him instantly. He lowered his gaze, obediently eating with tears threatening to form.
Indra caught Itachi's glance and gave a small smile in return, silently understanding.

After the hearty meal, the two sat on the sofa laughing when mikoto and fugaku came near and bringing up weird topics to talk about.
But their true meeting was— "Third hokage has given you a new mission," Itachi spoke serious.
"What mission?,"
"Remember the time when we fall on the pond trying to practice fire ball!" Indra instantly added as Itachi nodded sensing someone might be listening.
"It's the mission to spy on the clan members..." Itachi whispered followed by "yeah, I remember. I was so engrossed in teaching you so that I fall inside the pond"
"Oh...." Then Indra's voice followed"Haha! You looked soo pityful in that state!"
"Oh well, Indra I'm going to sleep. Im tried" itachi stood up as he met Indra's eyes
"Okay you can go, Go rest because tomorrow is a important day" seeing Itachi smile he returned the smile
---
Later that night, when the house had quieted, Indra lay curled beneath his blanket. He reached to turn off the lamp, the soft glow vanishing into darkness.
His breathing stopped. Seconds slipped into minutes,minutes slipped into hours… until pain struck like a hammer.
"Ugh—!"
His eyes snapped open, the Sharingan spinning alive as he clutched his head. Memories of his own flooded in, overwhelming him.
A stone-paved sidewalk. A glowing phone screen playing an anime.
A blonde boy shouting with a grin—
"Uzumaki Naruto! Dattebayo!"
The blare of horns.
The blinding headlights of a truck.
Impact—darkness.
Indra gasped awake, drenched in sweat. His eyes darted around his room.
"I… I…"
He stared at his trembling hands.
"I'm… an Uchiha?"
The realization crashed down, followed by more fragmented memories—this time, his predecessor's.
The old man Hiruzen, twisting words of peace into shackles. The poison of the so-called Will of Fire.
Indra's lips curled into a bitter smile.
"What a disgusting manipulation…"
Then—light.
An orange screen flickered into existence before his eyes.

Indra's eyes widened. His chest heaved, caught between fear and awe.
