AN/ With all those 'Teenage girl finds themselves in the Naruto world' stories, I decided to do something different. This is the story of a boy who finds himself in the body Itachi Uchiha. As of right now, I'm not planning for there to be any pairings.

Oh, and I am in no way a boy, so if you see something that a guy would never do or think, please excuse me, because I wouldn't know. Just tell me, and I'll see if I can fix it. If it's a big part of his personality, though, it will not be removed. Sorry.

Enjoy the story! ^/-\^

Disclaimer: I don't own anything in Naruto.

Itachi Uchiha.

Honestly, I never thought that hard about him before. Yes, I know who he is. Doesn't everyone who likes Naruto? But I don't really like him, or anything. He's actually kind of boring. He has almost no personality. At all.

His backstory is pretty cool, I guess. He killed his whole family at the order of the council, and lived the rest of his life wanting to be killed by his brother, which is sad.

Really, if there is anyone I hate, it's Sasuke. He lives his life emo, betrays his village, and trains under the creepy Michael Jackson look-alike, all to kill his - innocent - brother. Then, once Itachi's dead and he's told the truth of the massacre, he decides to join the guy who helped kill his family, and try to get revenge on Konoha for making his brother kill his family, even though Itachi did all that to protect Konoha. Really? Does he even have a brain?

But it's not like I like Itachi, or anything. Really, I don't get what all those fangirls see in him.

So why did I wake up as him? I have no idea how it happened. I went to bed normally, but woke up in the same room as a giant shark man.

If this were my sister, she'd probably glomp him or something.

Me? I start yelling my head off.

Kisame- of course I knew who he was; what other blue human sharks are there?- shoots up with a start. He looks around frantically, before settling his eyes on me yelling random stuff at him.

"Where am I?! Who are you?! Where did you take me?! Why are you dressed up as a Naruto character?! If Maya put you up to this, it's not funny. Why did I have to be kidnapped by a cosplayer of all things?! What do you want with me?! Are you going to kill me?! You can't kill me! I have to take care of Maya! Well, my parents can do that good enough, but she'd be really upset if I died! Not to mention my parents! You probably don't care... I have a terrible illness! It's very contagious! You'll catch it if you don't let me go! Just-mmph!" The Kisame cosplayer put his hand over my mouth, looking slightly overwhelmed. I guess I'm being a bit more chatty than normal. But I just woke up in the same room as an anime character. You can't blame me for freaking out.

"Are you going to say anything if I remove my hand?" he asks. I don't nod or shake my head. Of course I'll talk. Or yell, and hope someone hears me.

He takes his hand away, taking my silence as a no. I open my mouth and start yelling.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-"

"Sorry, Itachi," Kisame mutters. Itachi? Is my last thought as feel a thump on the back of my head, and everything goes black.

X/-\X

I wake up to the sound of voices. "...Acting very weird... ... Yelling like a maniac... ... Knocked out..."

I blink to clear my eyes and stare at the sight before me. There is the same Kisame cosplayer as before, but now, there's a Pein cosplayer there also, talking to him.

Was I kidnapped and taken to an anime convention or something?

I decide it would be stupid to let them know I'm awake, so I pretend to still be asleep. I even put in a couple of quiet snores to make it authentic.

Why did they stop talking?

"Itachi," one of them says, and my snores falter. There's an Itachi cosplayer here also?! I really was taken to an anime convention, wasn't I?

"Itachi," they repeat. What's with this Itachi guy, and why doesn't he respond to them?

"Itachi. We know you're faking," he says. Wait, is he talking to me?

"I think you're mistaken," I say, sitting up and looking at the guy dressed as Pein. "I'm not Itachi. My name is... Ben. Ben Dover." Of course, that isn't actually my name, but I'm not about to reveal my actual name. I mean, they did kidnap me.

The Pein cosplayer glances at the Kisame cosplayer. "I see what you mean," he says. He looks at me. "No. Your name is Itachi Uchiha."

My eyes widen. "Oh, I know what this is! You're a really weird, overly passionate anime fan that kidnaps people and force them to dress like your favorite characters! Well, you picked a bad person to be Itachi, because I'm nothing like him. He all, 'Hn. You lack hatred. Hn,' like he's trying to be cool or something." The Kisame cosplayer starts laughing.

"Yup, that's Itachi to a T!" he says, cracking up. It isn't really that funny.

"Kisame, stop playing along with him," the Pein cosplayer says. Jerk.

Then a guy with a huge Venus fly trap thing around his head merges out of the floor. "Leader-sama-"

"EYAAAAAGH!" I exclaim, scooting away from him, eyes wide. "YOU JUST CAME OUT OF THE FLOOR!"

He looks at me strangely. "-No duh, idiot.- Leader-sama, is Itachi feeling alright?"

"NO I AM NOT! YOU JUST CAME OUT OF THE FLOOR! AND MY NAME IS NOT ITACHI!" He's real! He's actually the real Zetsu!

If he is real, then so are Kisame and Pein. And they keep calling me Itachi...

I lift my hand to the back of my head and finger my now long, black hair, pulled into a ponytail.

No. Way.

Am I really... Itachi Uchiha?

...

Well, I may as well go with it, until the shock kicks in.

I start laughing really hard. "Ahhahahahahaha! I got you!" I point at them, still laughing. "You thought I wasn't Itachi!"

"No, we didn-"

"Ah, that was fun," I interrupt Pein, "But I'm going back to my room." I walk out the door, still chuckling. They were probably really confused now.

Good.

You may be thinking that I'm really taking this in stride. I am. But I'm also inwardly freaking out. I'm normally a lot more calm than what I displayed in front of Pein, Kisame, and Zetsu. But really. What would you do in my place?

I suddenly realize the magnitude of my situation. I'm in the Naruto world. I can change things!

I haven't been really happy with the turn things were taking in the manga. A ton of my favorite characters are being killed off (Jiraiya). And others have been completely ruined (Sasuke). But now...

I could change things... For the better!

Starting with Itachi's - my - personality.

No more would be the quiet, solemn man who wants nothing more than to be killed by his younger brother.

I will redefine the meaning of Uchiha!

Look out world- here comes Itachi Uchiha!

And there's chapter one! I won't have regular updates; I'll try hard to update as much as I can, but I can't promise anything. Please review!
