Itachi was in hot water. No doubt about that, the night before the coup, he was supposed to massacre the clan. But no, Someone ratted him out. And the coup did happen. Now the village had been corrupted by the Uchiha’s leadership, itachi’s worst fear as this would only bring war and violence. He knew things would only spiral here on out. —————————————— Now he stands trial on infront of the Uchiha Elders and his own father, now the Hokage and head of the Uchiha.
Itachi had been forced on his knee, hands cuffed behind his back as he kneeled before the council, he remained calm and composed, stoic.
“Before we begin.” Fugaku spoke, he turned to itachi and gave him a stern glare. With a snap of his fingers Itachi felt his heart drop, and his eyes widened. Being dragged in and forced onto her knees was you, he watched as you were forced to kneel a few feet away from him, hands pinned behind your back.
“NO!” he yelled, loosing his composure for a second as he thrashed around in his shackles. “She had no part in this!!” He yelled, looking at the council with his eyes wide and pleading. “Leave her be!!” Itachi said.
Fugaku ignored his pleas, he turned to look at you. “Did you know about this? Have you participated in his treason? Tell us honestly or you’ll be locked up with him as well.” He demanded.
