"Argh!"
I don't know what happened but my body feels so sore. It's like every fiber of my muscles are tearing apart.
"Urrrrrgh!"
I can't even open my eyes because my head feels like it's going to burst.
Memories, unfamiliar memories are currently invading my mind. It's like I'm living the life of another person. It's so vivid that it scares me.
…
I'm reliving memories from the perspective of a kid.
This kid is such a walking contradiction. He wanted to have friends but he didn't even put in the effort. For one, he's quiet, mysterious, and puts on an unfriendly air around him. Well, at least he has a loving family. His brother really spoiled him a lot. I can tell that they have a really tight bond.
And now, he's going to a strange academy, learning very few academic lessons and more practical and kinetic use of body parts. What kind of school would teach kids less than 10 years of age how to parkour, close quarter combat and hold weapons. Is this some kind of terrorist organization that forces kids how to kill at such a young age? Then why the hell would they teach math, science and other subjects. There are even passing scores in tests. Wouldn't it be more ideal to have a lot of cannon fodders than decreasing the number of your soldiers by selecting them?
What's more interesting is how this kid stands out the most out of all his peers. He is really gifted. His talent when it comes to fighting is cut above anyone else. I can't believe he is only 5 years old. In fact, all of them are unbelievable. Are they really human? I also noticed that the technology of this world is not that advanced yet. The infrastructure also looks like it was from the ancient Japanese era. I feel like I'm starting to understand this world.
This time, "I" am training in a forest. Seems like I'm getting influenced by these memories. What, is it 7 years already? Reliving the life of a baby till this point, I really learned a lot.
Anyway, it's almost dawn. "Mom" will be really mad.
Funny enough, even the thought of this kid, it's like it came from me. I can even see what his dream is. No wonder I feel like I'm him for a moment.
Is there an accident or something? The smell of blood, even with how many times I smelled it I will never get used to it. The only reason I'm this composed after smelling blood is because I know that this event already happened, else I will be nervous as hell. On the other hand, this kid is not nervous at all. Well, he has been killing boars with his brother for years now. But I got a really bad feeling about this. The smell is much stronger now that we're at the district gate.
And then, there I saw the most terrifying thing in my life. Witnessing a very familiar scene from the eyes of a boy. The massacre that transpired within the most powerful clan in the village, the home of the elites. An event that will shock the people, an event that will change the power balance of the ninja world. The Uchiha Massacre.
…
'This is unbelievable, something that should only happen in fiction. Who would have thought that I would be transmigrated as Uchiha Sasuke after dying because of depression. But now that I'm here, I have a new goal. And that is to survive the impending enemy and live my life to the fullest.'
Feeling that my body and mind has already recovered, I opened my eyes. The familiar layout and smell of a hospital greeted me.
*Tok tok tok*
I heard knocks on the door. Without asking for permission, the person from the other side opened the door and came in. He/she probably didn't know that I already regained consciousness.
A nurse came in, with a tint of surprise on her beautiful face.
"Ohh, you're awake. I will check your condition first and then call the doctor."
I just nodded and she did her thing. After that, she left and came back with the doctor.
The doctor picked up the free chair meant for visitors and sat next to the bed.
"How is his condition?"
The doctor asked the nurse.
"All of his check ups are normal."
The nurse said and gave the clipboard containing all my check ups to the doctor.
"You may leave."
The nurse bowed and left the chat.
"You are really a tough one, young man. It's been over a month since you've been sleeping. Do you remember who you are?"
"I'm Uchiha Sasuke."
"How old are you?"
"7 years old"
"Do you know where we are right now?"
"Konoha's Medical Hospital"
"Do you have difficulty remembering things?"
"No, I think I'm fine."
"That's good to hear. Normally, when a person is placed under a genjutsu, especially as strong as from a mangekyou, they will either straight up die or go crazy. But for a 7 year old, that's really impressive. Anyway, you will need to have to go through a lot of check ups and tests to make sure you are fine. For now, rest your body and relax."
"Thank you."
"All right, I will inform Hokage-sama."
