Warning: This chapter might be cringe or maybe not. I don't know.
I have a reason for this.
I read too many cringe-worthy stuff that I don't even know what is considered cringe anymore.
In order to help my severe condition, please stone me with power stones.
Yes, you didn't mishear it. Stone me.

[While Akihiko was fighting Konan]
Itachi was thinking deeply as he finished listening to everything Mikoto said. Sasuke already left the talk in the middle as he muttered,
"Fuck. This is stressing me out."
He just dashed outside the house as he sat near the lake and just watched the Sakura blossoms swaying in the wind. Karin was also walking around as she saw Sasuke sitting there and accompanied him.
{a/n: If you forgot, there is a large Sakura tree that Akihiko made in the lake.}
Itachi just smiled wryly.
"Itachi, although I have seen everything, do you want to tell me your own story? I want to hear it directly from you." Mikoto said as she smiled and patted Itachi's head just like she did when Itachi was really young.
Itachi just let Mikoto pat his head as it had been really long since he was last patted like this. He smiled as he nodded.
"Hnn."
"Where do you want me to start, mom?" Itachi was still a bit awkward calling Mikoto mom after many years.
"Right from the beginning."
"Alright."
Itachi started telling everything that happened, not just the events that led to the massacre but also what he did after the massacre.
Of course, he omitted some parts, for example, the disease that he had and the fact that he was going to die in a few months.
Mikoto got up as she hugged Itachi tightly and rubbed the back of his back.
"It must have been hard on you."
Itachi closed his eyes for a second and smiled.
"Thanks, Mom."
'I guess nothing really beats family.' Itachi thought as he let Mikoto hug him. They separated after a few seconds.
Sasuke already left the lake as he was now sitting on top of the house, listening to Mikoto and Itachi's conversation.
"Tsk. How troublesome." He just muttered as he closed his eyes and laid his back on the roof. Karin was also beside him, smiling and staring at him.
A few minutes later, the kids entered the house with the mothers.
"Hehe, Gurizu is starting to become fat." Mirai said as she laughed.
"We have to reduce the number of cookies given to him." Kyoko nodded as she said with a serious face.
"B-but he will be sad if he doesn't get to eat cookies." Himeko joined in as Renge just muttered.
"Nyanta needs to eat more. He's still not chonky."
The mothers just shook their heads as they smiled. Their daughters were just too cute.
Kiyomi dashed over to Mikoto as she sat on her lap.
"Mom, I wanted to ask you. Who is this uncle?" Kiyomi asked as she pointed at Itachi.
Itachi was slightly hurt as he already knew that this was his half-sister.
Hina was currently thinking, 'Ah! Isn't that Itachi Uchiha? I remember seeing him a few times in my previous life.'
"Kiyomi, this is your other brother." Mikoto said as she ruffled Kiyomi's hair.
"Brother? New brother? Mom, why are brothers coming out of nowhere?" Kiyomi asked as she tilted her head.
Mikoto just smiled as she answered.
"Your brothers are ninjas so they have to go out on long journeys."
The other kids who were listening also had their mouths open as they went, "Ohhhhh."
Kiyomi waved her hands as she introduced herself to Itachi.
"Hello brother. I am Kiyomi Uchiha."
"Itachi Uchiha."
"Me! Me! I'm Kyoko!" Kyoko said as she let go of Anko's hands and introduced herself.
"I-I'm Himeko." Himeko was holding Haku's hands.
"My name is Ayako." Ayako said while peeking outside from behind Ayame's back.
"Nyanpasu! I'm Renge." Renge said as she held Nyanta in her arms. Nyanta tried to Neko Punch her but she just moved her head as she hit Nyanta's head.
"Bad cat."
"Mirai." Mirai was jumping around as Kurenai was trying to calm her down.
"I'm Akiko" Akiko was sitting on Pakura's legs as she was hugging her mom.
"Nice to meet you, I am Himiko Uchiha." Himiko introduced herself as she was being piggybacked by Izumi.
"I'm Hina." Hina said as she sat on top of Kushina's shoulders.
'Well, I might still live for 6 months. Just like Akihiko said, I guess I should try to enjoy my last months. My eyes are almost blind. All I can see are blurry images but I can see that they are all really cute.' Itachi thought as he smiled a bit.
'I guess I'll give Sasuke my eyes.'
Naruto already joined Sasuke and Karin on the rooftop as he started speaking.
"Sasuke, this is really weird, isn't it?"
"Hnn."
They both fell into silence as they both laughed a few seconds later. Jugo and Deidara were standing outside the house as they both were eating cookies.
The children were talking with Itachi as they asked more stuff to know each other. But they all suddenly stopped as they heard a familiar voice.
"Did anything interesting happen while I was gone?"
"Nope. We just had a conversation while the kids went and treat Gurizu, Panda, Aisu and Nyanta some cookies." Mikoto answered as the mothers just continued to take care of their children.
The kids all left their mothers as they all ran towards Akihiko.
"PAPA!"x9
They all shouted as they started tugging his shirt, his pants, and climbing up his body. Finally, they all took their own spot on his body as they were now ready to go out.
"Hahaha." Akihiko started laughing as the kids all giggled.
"Papa, let's go shopping!" Mirai said as the other kids also joined in.
"Yeah!"
"Alright then. Do you all want to come too?" Akihiko asked as he turned towards where his wives were mostly standing.
"Sure!" Kushina immediately answered as she quickly arrived near Akihiko and took Hina and Himeko who were hugging Akihiko's arms.
"Both of you will be with me."
The two looked at Kushina with pleading eyes as Kushina replied.
"Nope. I won't send you back."
Izumi nodded as she said, "I don't have any missions to do."
"Ah sorry. I'll just go back to sleep. I'm really sleepy today." Anko said as she went back to the bedroom.
"I'll continue talking with Itachi so I won't be able to come." Mikoto answered while Itachi's brain malfunctioned as he finally remembered, Akihiko was his sister's father.
"I still have team training with my team." Kurenai said as she looked dejected.
"I don't have a team." Yugao said.
"Alright. Everyone, bye!" Akihiko said as the mothers held the kids while some were still sitting on Akihiko's head and shoulders.
"Bye!" x9
They all left the house as only Mikoto, Itachi, Anko, Kurenai, Sasuke, Karin, Naruto and Jugo and Deidara were left in the house.
"Umm, I probably shouldn't follow boss. He'll be having family time." Deidara muttered as he grinned.
"I'll continue working on my prototype cookie bombs."
-----
[In Hokage Office]
"Alright. Apology accepted." Tsunade said as she gave the Jutsu scrolls to Shizune.
Yugito and Samui brought 2 B-rank and 1 A-rank Jutsu from Kumo as compensation for Konoha.
A was the one who gave this order as he didn't want beef with Konoha, mostly Akihiko. What he didn't know was that Akihiko and Bee were in a brotherhood. If he knew this, he wouldn't have given these scrolls.
"So, when will you be returning to Kumo?" Tsunade asked as Yugito was thinking what to reply.
"We will return soon."
She didn't give a specific answer as Tsunade just sighed.
"Alright. Shizune, guide them around Konoha."
"Yes, lady Tsunade." Shizune said as she complied with Tsunade's order.
"Please follow me." Shizune said as Yugito and Samui nodded and followed her outside the office.

[30 minutes later]
"Mom, I'll go and have a talk with Sasuke." Itachi said as Mikoto sighed.
"Alright."
Itachi walked outside as he saw Sasuke, Karin and Naruto laying on the rooftop. The wind swayed as Karin's skirt got lifted.
Itachi immediately turned before he saw anything as he thought, 'That should be Sasuke's girlfriend. He should be the only one to see it.'
"Sasuke, can we talk for a while?" Itachi said as Sasuke who was on top of the roof clicked his tongue again.
Sasuke thought, 'My tongue is going to hurt after a while from all the tongue clicks.'
"What do you want to talk about?" Sasuke said as he jumped down the roof.
Naruto also jumped down as he just summoned Gamakichi and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"I thought you would have ignored me, Sasuke." Itachi said as Sasuke scoffed.
"I would have fought you right here again if it weren't for mom." Sasuke replied as Itachi just smiled.
"Sasuke, do you know about the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?"
"No. If I have to guess, it should probably be another form of the Sharingan."
"Yes, you're right Sasuke. Your Mangekyou Sharingan has many side effects. It causes blindness over time. Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan doesn't have these side effects."
"I see. So, what is your purpose in telling me this?"
Itachi didn't answer the question as he just continued.
"In order to attain the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, you will need to implant another Mangekyou Sharingan from someone with strong blood ties."
Sasuke understood the point and his eyes widened as he heard an extremely weird sound.
Blood was dripping down from both of Itachi's eyes as he took out his own eyes with his hands.
"Sasuke, I apologize for all the things I did before." Itachi said with a smile as he handed his eyeballs to Sasuke.
{a/n: Kinda weird isn't it. Giving eyeballs like it's a pokemon card.}
"Damn it! Why are you- Why- Why are you doing this?!" Sasuke shouted as some tears gathered in his eyes.
"You fucking piece of shit!" Sasuke yelled out as tears finally flowed down his face.
"At least let me hate you until the end!" Sasuke shouted as Itachi just chuckled.
"You think this is funny?"
"Haha, I want to cry too Sasuke. But I don't have my eyes."
"I-I hate you." Sasuke said as he held down his laughter.
'Is my sense of humour so bad that I am going to laugh at this joke?' Sasuke thought as he got up.
"Fine. I'll take your eyes. But I still haven't forgiven you." Sasuke said as Itachi smiled.
"After all this time, you're still a tsundere, Sasuke." Itachi said as Sasuke took Itachi's eyes from his hands.
"Where do I keep these eyes?" Sasuke asked as Itachi replied.
"Don't keep it. Transplant it."
"So, how do I transplant it?"
"Ask someone."
"Who?"
"I don't know."
"So, you gave me your eyes without any plans?"
"Yes. But that doesn't matter. Can you give me some bandages, Sasuke?" Itachi asked as Sasuke turned towards Karin with his teary face.
"Bandages."
Karin just nodded as she handed over some bandages.
"Here."
Itachi took the bandage as he wrapped it and used it as a blindfold.
"Thank you, Sasuke." Itachi said as he moved his right hand towards Sasuke and touched his forehead.
{a/n: Is Sasuke too fast in forgiving Itachi? Yes but there are reasons for it. Well, in this AU, he didn't see Itachi killing everyone. He only saw the corpses and news. Also, he didn't get mentally tortured by Itachi so his hatred is not as bad as in canon. There are more reasons but I'm too lazy to type.}
Sasuke didn't dodge it or slap Itachi's hands back and just allowed it to happen.
Mikoto was watching it all from inside the house as she felt happy and sad at the same time. Itachi just lost his eyes but his relationship with Sasuke is better now.
'What a mess.' She thought.
-----
Konan flew at high speeds using her wings as she was able to reach Amegakure after 3 hours.
"Konan, what's wrong?" Nagato asked as Konan was bleeding.
"Akihiko, he's extremely strong and Two Tails is also in Konoha."
"Hm, I see. Who do you think will win between him and Pain?"
Konan didn't reply for a few seconds before she thought,
"I don't know."
Nagato was silent for a few minutes before he spoke.
"We'll continue with our plan. I'm sure no matter how strong he is, in front of God, he will not stand a chance."
"Let me go to Konoha on the day of the attack. I still have some issues with him." Konan said as Nagato nodded.
(End-)
