One Small Kindness (M) by DigitalTart
Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: None
Genre: Gen, AU, drama, action, politics.
Length: About 110,000 words.
Author on LJ: Not known
Warnings: Some violence.
Author Websites: Author's page on FFN.
Author Summary: Uchiha Mikoto takes the hand of an outcast child, and with it rewrites the destiny of her clan.
Why this must be read: This is the second of the two 'let's fix the Uchiha massacre' stories that I decided to rec. I think this one is my favourite because it stars a much neglected character. As mother of Itachi and Sasuke, and wife to Fugaku, Uchiha Mikoto has the potential to wield some level of influence over some extremely powerful men. In canon that is never seen to happen, and interestingly in this story she doesn't either. Instead she simply, as the author says, takes the hand of an outcast child. This a story of how kindness repays itself if you let it, and how some people can simply never see the better path even when it's there to be taken. It's a lovely story, engaging and well-written, and containing a happy and loved chibi Naruto, which in and of itself is a joy. I hope you love this story as much as I do.
