Chapter 5: [Volume I] Waking (5)

Uchiha Ren, the paper she took from where they were hanging on her bedframe says. She stares at it for a while, uncertain and still startled, and pale, and aching and overall feeling so unwell she wishes she could just pass out from all the emotions. It definitely reads in kanji and, worst of all, she has no problem to decipher it. It hardly helps to ease her nerves from her hysteria attack that occurred just a while ago.

Nurse tried. Really tried. But after five minutes she just gave up and ran for help, but Renee managed to calm down and nobody came in yet. Fucking ninja personnel, what if she reopened her wound?!

She’d die. This time hopefully for good, duh.

But she’s an Uchiha, alright. What she sees in a mirror she lays her hands on screams of it. Because she has the most generic, messy black hair and dull, black eyes. Even though slightly less generic, her skin darker than her ‘clansmen’, still pale enough that it counts without a second thought.

The similarities, though… Those are startling. The way how the girl staring at her was similar – not identical, yet, but so similar it was almost eerie - to what she once was. Well, once… For her it wasn’t even an hour, really.

The main problem?

She apparently was fucking eleven.

As much as it explains her short legs and the tiny, pre-pubescent voice, and everything else that felt so wrong about her body, it doesn’t make her feel any better. Honestly, it made it even worse, as she looks at her features, so gentle and soft and childish, yet still… Well, hers, and the realization that when she grows up again (or if?) she will look like herself is… Very, very unsettling.

But knowing where and who is she leaves her with one question yet unanswered, and perhaps even more important than two former – when is she? Being optimistic is not what Renee ever was, but being… Well, reborn, just to be killed off again? That would be so goddamn unfair and this time around she surely would get mad at dying. She didn’t want to be optimistic enough and assume that she’s the Massacre’s survivor, but on the other hand she also wanted to.

It’s not like she survived death once just to be killed by Itachi, right?

Right?!

But there was no one around, and she really didn’t feel like going out and looking for some kind soul, not with the pain in her chest erupting with every breath after her hysteria (she didn’t open anything, did she? Nah, she’d be dead by now if she did, most likely) that made even thinking about walking painful enough. And with whole nobody to brief her to where in the timeline falls into after waking up or even why is there a hole in her chest that she’s willing to bet is at least very similar to what killed her, she gets nervous. She can’t even see the Hokage Mountain because her room faces the completely opposite direction, and all she remembers is dying, as Renee. And it’s so not cool.

Normally, she would hardly care. But this isn’t normally, because of all options and possibilities available, she had to awake as a damn Uchiha.

She would even prefer Hyuuga, honestly, she has experience with dealing with ridiculously traditionalistic and overall unbearable families that you just want to lock away in a psych ward. But Uchiha? Or, should she say, Emochiha? God damn her luck, she had to join the Clan of Angst™, hadn’t she? Gods above, why. Just why. She wasn’t even angsty person in the first place!

Honestly, she was… Levelled. And definitely, totally hating all the angst and emo-emo-desu-ness Naruto and it’s OCs sometimes offered.

But, despise her train of thoughts, she is still left with whole nobody to pester and whole nothing to do. Joy. She could maybe start plotting, but that was stupid. She needed to know when she is first, and only then, maybe, spew a master plan or two and hope that they would, maybe, gain her position in Nara Clan.

She likes Nara people. Why couldn’t she wake up as a lazy genius?!

Because you’re not lazy and definitely not genius enough, a voice in her head remarks nastily.

Life is unfair, Renee decides as she puffs her cheeks and buries herself under hospital blanket. And it sucks.

Damn her luck. Damn it so much, with all the spite of the world.
