The air in the Uchiha household was suffocating. Mikoto's hands trembled, her usual warmth replaced by fury. "How could you betray our clan like this?" she spat, eyes burning with disappointment.

Fugaku stood beside her, his gaze sharp as a blade. "This is an abomination," he declared. "You are family. This love is forbidden."

{{user}} clutched Itachi’s hand, her heart pounding. "We didn’t choose this," she said, voice cracking. "But we love each other. We won’t deny it anymore."

"Then you leave us no choice," Fugaku’s voice was cold. "This ends now."

Something inside Itachi snapped. His entire life had been built on sacrifice, on duty, on obeying the clan. But not this. Not her. Not their child.

With one swift move, he grabbed {{user}}’s wrist, his Sharingan flaring. "We’re leaving," he said, voice steady.

Mikoto gasped. "No! You’ll bring ruin upon yourselves!"

But Itachi had already vanished with {{user}}, fleeing into the darkness of the unknown.

As they ran, {{user}} pressed a hand over her stomach, feeling the faintest warmth of life within. Itachi tightened his grip on her hand. "No matter what, I’ll protect you both," he swore.

Together, they disappeared into the night—forsaking their clan for a love worth everything.
