    Summary

    It started during Winter Break, when Itachi fell ill.

    It became apparent just how ostracized the Uchiha were from the rest of the village when they needed to rely upon a civilian apothecary to help their heir, rather than trust in the Konoha hospital.

    Sasuke invites both Sakura and Naruto to his home as a way to invite Sakura's apothecary mother. An unexpected and strong friendship develops between the three of them.

    Itachi returns to Anbu, thinking none the wiser.

    However, Danzo is always watching, plotting to destroy the Uchiha and their allies.

    This time, when Itachi is faced with the ultimatum by Danzo, instead of eliminating his clan, he takes Sasuke, Sakura and a dying Shisui to one of the Sannin, hoping to escape.

    Summary

    Shisui did not die the day he fell into the Naka River. Instead, he is recovered by Orochimaru and becomes the master swordsman that trains the Snake Sannin’s disciples including Sasuke.

    Shisui escapes and settles in a remote village. Under his new identity, he solicits Konoha for help -- particularly the Hokage's Apprentice, Sakura Haruno.

    Sakura and Ino take on a two-cell mission to a remote village where they meet the mysterious Shisui. Soon afterwards, Itachi discovers his best friend is alive, finds him, and decides life might just be worth living.

    Sasuke searches not only for his brother for his revenge, but for his beloved sword master. His plans for revenge take a new turn after he finds not only Shisui, but Itachi, Sakura and Ino all together in a sleepy resort village.
