Ali: So, I got this idea when I thought "both Kakashi and Kabuto have silver hair so what if they were brothers?" So here's Broken Bonds!

Kabuto: We are not brothers.

Ali: In this story you are, so deal with it.

Kabuto: *glasses flash* Fine.

Ali: I hope you enjoy!

Kabuto: What about the disclaimer?

Ali: I already said it.

Kabuto: No you didn't! Say it!

Ali: Fine, fine, I own nothing.

Kabuto: Enjoy this... story.

Chapter One:

A Baby Brother

Kakashi's Pov:

At the age of 8 Kakashi Hatake was well past the fact that his father committed suicide and that his mother died giving birth to him. When he found out that a woman gave birth to a boy of his father's he started to wonder if his father really committed suicide. Then the woman began to speak about what really happened. He was told to come say hello to his new baby brother, whom they took DNA samples from to find out the father since she blathered on. Kakashi hadn't heard, but he was told by Minato to some and hear what was about to be said. He curiously walked into the room and saw a beautiful woman with long dark hair and bright eyes that seemed to be getting duller by the minute.

"Are you Kakashi?"

He nodded. "Yes."

"This is your brother," she said, showing off the silver hair.

"That's not possible because my parents are both dead."

"But not before Orochimaru could get your father's... DNA per say and inject it into me," she explained.

Kakashi knew many things, but he was still ignorant to a few things like the very specifics of sex. "So... Orochimaru did this to you?"

She nodded. "Yes."

Orochimaru is a loyal and great shinobi, Kakashi thought. He doesn't do this illegally does he?

"My husband died in the war before I could give him a child and Orochimaru said that he could have some people do some work," she said, light blush clear on her face as she thought of the handsome Sannin.

"So... he's my half brother?"

She nodded. "That's right."

Kakashi looked at the child and knew that he was related to the bundle. The same silver hair, the same coal eyes, the relatively same skin. Kakashi couldn't deny this relative even if he wanted to. "So... I have a brother?"

"Y-yes," she said, holding out the fragile baby. "Here, hold him while I rest?"

He took the babe with a nod. "You can rest... what's his name?"

She cracked open her eye for a second to look at him before she relaxed again and breathed out the name. "Kabuto..."

Kakashi rocked Kabuto as he'd seen many mothers do and he narrowed his eyes to observe the babe in his arms and saw some similarities besides their silver hair. He tilted his head in wonder and then he heard the child stir. Kabtuo stared at his older brother and reached up for his hair. Kakashi leaned back and the baby's face scrunched up before it started crying. Kakashi glanced at the mother and stood and walked around bouncing the crying Kabuto. THen he looked at the already made formula and shook it fiercely before he popped it in his brother's mouth. He suckled and drank the milky contents. Kakashi relaxed and sat back down, making sure that he had the head supported. Before he knew it the heart monitor went crazy. He placed the baby in the bed and took out the bottle and ran out of the room to the nearest doctor.

"The woman in that room... just come on!" he said, as he saw the doctor was looking at the bottle in his hand. He grabbed the doctor and dragged him inside. "Her heart...!"

"I need nurses!" the doctor yelled before he turned to Kakashi. "make sure the baby doesn't see anything."

Kakashi nodded and went to his baby brother and scooped him up, making sure he was turned away from the scene. He saw blood and the woman's face pale more and more. He didn't know her well, but he knew that it hurt to see this. He'd seen his father dead and he didn't want to see her dead. He felt tears in his eyes and he turned away, making the babe catch a glimpse of the horrible scene. Kakashi was led out of the room and Kabuto reached out to comfort his big brother. Kakashi smiled through his mask at him and he handed him to the nurse who was going to take him to be checked out like they did periodically.

"Kakashi, I heard you have a baby brother," Minato said, walking in before noticing his student's watery eyes. "What's wrong?"

"His mother's in critical condition. I don't know if she'll make it."

"Oh... did she name the baby?"

"Yeah, his name is Kabuto."

"Nice name," he said, trailing into an awkward silence. "Come on, you need some rest. How about I get you a nice cup of ramen?"

Sensei thinks that everything can be cured with ramen, the scarred boy thought. "Okay... How am I gonna take care of him? I don't know how to."

"How about you stay with me or Lord Sarutobi and we can help you?"

Minato sensei's probably not taken care of a kid before, so the safe bet is Lord Sarutobi, he mused. "I think... I'll stay with Lord Sarutobi."

"Alright," he said with a nod.

Oh, this is going to be a long first year...

Ali: Oh yeah! First chapter done!

Kabuto: I don't like it.

Ali: You don't have to.

Kabuto: *rolls his eyes* Whatever.

Ali: Please review!~
