(A.N: Hey everyohis chapter was one of the most difficult chapters I have written so far. I had to rewrite it twice because I was not able to show the emotions I wao initially. I ied a huge amount of hard work in this chapter. Please tell me if you like it or not ^~^)

  Shisui Uchiha stood at the base of the mountain in the Land of Lightning, quite a distance from Kumogakure, the Vilge Hidden in the Clouds. The mission had finally been pleted. The instrus he'd followed led him to this secluded spot, high above the mountain, where a makeshift grave awaited him.

  Alone, Shisui asded the mountain, his heart heavy with anticipation and sorrow. His three Anbu Jonin teammates stayed at a distance, keeping watch to ensure he remained undisturbed. This moment ersonal, and Shisui he solitude to front the past.

  At the summit, Shisui dug some earth and found the grave. The stones were meticulously arranged, a testament to Danzo’s twisted sense of respect. As Shisui k beside the grave, his firaced the outline of the stones, a silent tribute to his father's memory.

  "Dad," Shisui whispered, his voice breaking. "I've e to take you home." A tear fell oone he was toug.

  With a heavy heart, Shisui began the delicate task of uhing his father's body. Eaent was heavy, like lifting hundreds of kilograms. As he worked, memories of his father flooded his mind—moments of ughter, training, and the quiet strength his father had always embodied.

  Finally, Shisui uncovered his father's remains. Tears welled up in his eyes as he gazed at the lifeless form before him. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for the step. Carefully, he pced his father's body into a ste seal, ensuring it was secure for the journey back to Konoha.

  With the body safely stored, Shisui stood up, taking a moment to look at the sky. The skies in the Land of Lightning are often overcast, with dense cloud cover being a regur occurreoday was the same, but when Shisui looked up, the clouds parted a little and a ray of sunlight fell on the mountain Shisui was currently standing on.

  Like his father was seeing him from the pure nds, Shisui finally found enough mental strength to start moving again.

  Desding the mountain, Shisui rejoined his team. Without a word, they uood the gravity of what had just transpired. They set off immediately, moving swiftly and silently, their mission now plete.

  Ba Konoha, the news of Shisui's return spread quickly. Hae Uchiha, Shisui’s mother, awaited him at the entrao their home. When Shisui arrived, he handed her the ste seal. He could not speak a word at all.

  Hae was the same; she could not speak a word either. She khe turmoil of emotion her child must be fag, but she was the same. Hae looked at the ste seal in her hands and pced it on a bed. She activated it and saw her husband's body, her cries eg through the house. Shisui held her, his own tears mingling with hers as they mourogether.

  Kaida and Yomi were both standing a little away from them, silent, not speaking a single word. Hae and Shisui had kept their pain hidden for too long for each other, but now they had to let it flow for the peace of their minds and souls. After g for nearly an hour, Hae and Shisui calmed down.

  Kaida went to them and said, "Take all the time you o grieve. We're here for you. Let us hahe preparations for the funeral. You both have carried this pain for far too long, and now it's time to let it out." Then he went out, leaving Yomi behind to take care of Shisui and Aunt Hae.

  Kaida met with Fugaku and talked about the preparations o be pleted for the funeral. The Uchiha held a grand funeral, attended by the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the vilge elders, and various heads. The ceremony was a solemn affair, filled with speeches that honored Shisui’s father’s tributions and sacrifice.

  Hae and Shisui were present at the front of the crowd, gathered in front of the grave of Kagami Uchiha. Hiruzen Sarutobi stood before the assembled crowd, his voice steady and full of respect. "Today, we hreat man who gave his life in service to our vilge. His legacy will live on in his son, Shisui, and in the hearts of all who knew him."

  As the funeral cluded, Shisui felt a sense of closure. His father was finally at rest, and his family could begin to heal. He looked around at the gathered friends and family, feeling their support and strength.

  Kaida, beside Shisui, pced a f hand on Shisui’s shoulder. "I never had the eet Uncle, but from everything I have gotten to know, I uand he was an incredible shinobi and an eveer father. I am sure he will tio look after you from the pure nd.”

  Shisui nodded, his heart heavy but resolute. He didn’t say anything; his heart was still very heavy from the grief. After the speeches from everyone who knew Kagami cluded, the funeral ended. Everyohe pce except for Shisui, Hae, Kaida, and Yomi.

  “Yomi, y Mom back to our house?” Shisui asked.

  “Yes, brother,” Yomi said and helped Hae back to their house.

  Kaida and Shisui sat there silently. Shisui knew Kaida was not going to leave him alone, so he didn’t even try. Kaida, uanding his brother’s feelings, sat there silently without speaking a single word. The weight of their shared loss hung in the air, but in their silehere was a bond of unspoken support and uanding.

  After a long time, Shisui stood up. The sun was almost gone, a faint red glow c the surroundings.

  “It’s time to move on. I am sure Dad wouldn’t want his son to be like this,” Shisui said, wiping the st of his tears.

  “But I am sure he would be proud of how much his son has matured,” Kaida said, also standing up. Shisui just smiled at this.

  “Let’s go back,” Shisui said, and they both went back to their house.

  …

  “You guys are finally back. Do you want to eat anything?” came a voice from the kit.

  Yomi was sitting in front of the kit door. She looked helplessly toward Kaida and Shisui.

  “I asked her to take some rest, but she scolded me a into the kit,” Yomi crified the situation.

  “She just wants to keep herself busy,” Shisui said. He was also pnning on doing the same.

  “Yes, Aunt, we are super hungry,” Kaida said.

  “Then go and wash your hands; the food is almost ready,” Hae said.

  Kaida and Shisui looked at each other, both having a smile on their faces.

  That night, Kaida and the family had a peaceful dinner.
