Get over it: Chapter One

Itachi's Point of View

Standing next to nothing away from her, I wait for the Hokage to give us orders and finally allow the young kunoichi and myself to split ways. She would never be assigned to the same mission as he, never mind how much the Uchiha elders and his parents complained about him never being sent on missions with girls and then about the missions not being hard enough. Two conflicting complains, that on several occasions have been ignored due to me already completing the highest-level missions without scratches and not having any kunoichi at my skill level. By the time Tsunade finished speaking the girl beside me was staring into space, I couldn't really blame her she looked exhausted and we had been standing here for almost an hour.

"Itachi, take Sakura to the Rain Village and help them rebuild while Sakura assists with the healing. Itachi, look after my apprentice and make sure to tell that cousin of yours to keep his hands from her," Tsunade finished, staring carefully at Sakura the girl beside me and me the number one Anbu captain.

"Yes, ma'am," I answered, preforming the necessary hand signs and disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

Appearing in the same way I disappeared in the middle of my normal training ground, no one ever come to this place except my little brother Sasuke and myself. Sitting gently down in the middle of the field where the sun hit the grass and it was slightly longer then the shaded patches of grass. The stupid elder forcing Tsunade to send Sasuke's little teammate; Sakura, to go on one of his missions. Why did it have to be her of all people, the only person that if they got hurt Tsunade would nearly kill you over. It's all a trap to force me into marrying, for nearly two years now they have asked and asked and declared that I either pick someone or they will. Why Sakura the weakest member of my brother's genin team (not that they were genin anymore). Anyhow I need to put the thoughts aside and go and pack.

"Shisui or Izuna, please suddenly get sick," I begged, before racing off home.

Nearly an hour later, I stand leant against the doorframe of the Konoha gates waiting for her to show along with my cousins. A familiar voice calls my name, turning my head to the side I see Izuna, Obito and Shisui walking happily up to me, I close my eyes and try to locate Sakura's small, pink chakra signature.

"Stop worrying cous, the mission is simple take Sakura to heal my brother, heal him and leave," Izuna said, watching me the heir of the Uchiha clan try and find a small kunoichi and failing.

Sakura came running up to the gates no less then ten minutes later, out of breath and holding a small black scroll with the word 'Uchiha' neatly written on the outside. Stopping in front of my three cousins, and me the little ninja was completely out of breath (unknown to us, she had just preformed a very intense medical jutsu). Her chest heaved in and out, the smooth skin on her face flared red and her fists clenched around the black scroll.

"Sorry, I was late Tsunade was talking to me and I had something at the hospital to fix up," Sakura apologised, a smirk spread across my cousin's faces.

Without further talk my cousins and I dashed into the forest closely followed by Sakura, after traveling for almost a full day she was already slowing us down. First she was late and is now too tired to keep up properly. Why in the world would Tsunade sent this stupid little girl with us? Sensing a strong chakra ahead I brought my thoughts away from the young ninja and to the chakra ahead of us.
