Red Eyes Take Warning
Chapter One
Sakura Uchiha was known for her intelligence. Although half of Konoha would attest to her beauty, it was her intelligence that made her memorable. Medical books were her weapons and the hospital was her battlefield.
Her intelligence had saved many lives. Being in the ER was a stroll in the park for her. There were times when some walks were harder than others, but she could get by nonetheless. Nothing has ever come through the doors of Konoha's hospital that she could not handle... until now.
On the other side of her office table sat her daughter, happy as a six year old would ever be. Sarada swung her legs and sat with excitement, her black hair bouncing along with her, and the tomoe of her sharingan spiining with as much excitement.
Sakura groaned and placed her head on her hands. She never thought this would happen. It didn't even cross her mind! Who would have thought that her only daughter would get her sharingan at the age of six? Life was such a rollercoaster when you decide to love and marry and procreate with an Uchiha.
Sarada had always charmed her way into visiting her mother at the hospital. The nurses usually crowd her when she gets to the nurse's station asking for her.
Just imagine Sakura's surprise when the head nurse came running into the ER insisting that she leave the patient and come with her immediately. Sakura had found a crowd of astonished nurses, doctors, and patients in the main entrance and in the middle of it was Sarada, activating her sharingan with every blink she made.
Sarada was still doing it now, showing it off again and again to her mother. Sensing that her mother wasn't as amazed by it like the others did, she started to pout. "Mama, you aren't happy."
Sakura took her head from her hands and smiled. "Mama's very happy, Sarada. You got papa's gift."
Sarada smiled widely because of that. "This came from papa?"
"Yes, he has it too. Your papa would be so happy to know that you have it." Sakura spoke softly. "But Sarada, how did you... How did you do it?"
"Boruto said that it was stupid being an Uchiha. He said that being an Uzumaki was so much better and I got mad and shouted at him and my eyes started to hurt a bit so I blinked and he became surprised! He said my eyes were red!" Sarada spoke so fast, Sakura could barely catch up to her.
"Is it still hurting now?" Sakura moved from her table and knelt in front of her daughter. No matter how many times she saw the sharingan, Sakura could never get over its beauty. She just wished she wasn't admiring it from her six year old.
"Nope." Sarada smiled brightly. "It's nice, mama. It makes things so much brighter!"
"What do you mean, Sarada?" Sakura asked.
"Everything is so blurry when I stop using it, mama. I don't like it." Sarada crossed her arms. "I couldn't read the letters at school."
A chill crawled down Sakura's spine. Sarada had excellent eyesight. Reading anything was never a problem for her.
Sasuke did tell her that too much use of the Sharingan can affect the vision, but Sarada has only had the sharingan for a few hours. Questions filled Sakura's head. What could this mean for Sarada? Sakura's head started to hurt. She wished Sasuke was here. He would know what to do.
He left a month ago on a mission and has yet to come back. Not even Naruto, the hokage, knew when he's coming back or if he's safe. Sakura set aside her thoughts. Her husband could handle himself. What she needs to focus on is her daughter.
"Honey," Sakura started, taking hold of her child's small hands. "I think it's best if you stop using the sharingan for a while."
Sarada looked devastated. Sakura could barely keep herself from continuing on. "I think it's too early for you to be using it. Wouldn't it be better if you start using it when papa's around?"
Tears started to fill the young Uchiha's eyes. "But... mama... It's not bad."
"I know, sweetheart, but you have to follow mama, okay?" Sakura held on Sarada's hands tighter. "Promise me that you'll only use it when papa's back."
Sarada took her hands from her mother and jumped out of her chair. "No! This is papa's gift to me! You can't take it, mama!"
Sarada turned and ran. The tears further emphasizing the red in her eyes.
"Sarada!" Sakura called out after her, but the little Uchiha had blend into the crowd. Sakura could ran after her daughter, but she knew it would be in vain. It would only make things worse if she forced Sarada without her calming down first.
Sakura closed her office door and slumped on the floor, her eyes being filled with her own tears. "What am I supposed to do, Sasuke-kun?"
For all the knowledge that Sakura had, there was none that can help. For the first time in a very long while, Sakura Uchiha didn't know what to do.
