Disclaimer: I do not own the anime Naruto, though I really wish I could. But guess what? I own Risa, and Obito (not Kakashi's teammate), and anybody else who's name you don't recognize.

A/N: Hey everybody. This is one of my first fanfictions. Hope you like it.


Crimson Eyes and a Blood Heart (Itachi Love Story)

CH 1

Risa's POV

I was taking a walk that night, like I usually do. But that night was different, totally different from the rest of the nights. I felt that something was going to happen, something terrible. Of course, I had no idea what was going to happen, until I went into the Uchiha compound. I've been living with the Uchihas for quite some time. I don't know my past, I don't remember a thing. How did I get to Konoha? Why was I found during the war? Urgh. Those thoughts bothered me. But I didn't care.

As I passed through the houses, I noticed that it was extremely quiet, a little too quiet for my liking. I noticed that all the lights were off, and they don't usually sleep that early, right? Of course I'm right. I'm usually always right about things, but sometimes, HE makes me think about things in a different way, a way that I usually wouldn't think in. And by HE, I mean Uchiha Itachi. What can I say? I love him. And you can say that he loved me back, too. Well, at least I hoped so.

"R-Risa-chan..." A voice brought me back into reality. I looked down to see my teammate, Obito (haha, named after Kakashi's teammate), lying on the ground, almost dead because of the loss of blood. I ran over to him and started to heal him. There was blood all over his body. I was scared, because nobody has ever hurt Obito like this before. And I mean nobody when I say nobody.

"Risa-chan... Don't waste your chakra on me..." he managed to say between gasps of pain.

"But-"

"Risa-chan... Please... don't..."

I sighed. There was nothing I could do to change his mind. "W-What happened here? Who did this to you?! I swear, I'm gonna kick their ass!"

"A-Are you sure you want to know?"

"Of course! Why wouldn't I?"

He sighed. "It was... Itachi..."

My eyes widened in surprise. "I-Itachi? He would never do this!!" I fell to my knees.

"That's what I thought, until..." he sighed and pointed to himself.

"No, no!! That can't be true!!" I yelled. Just then, Sasuke came running out from one of the streets. I looked up. "S-Sasuke! What happened?!"

Just then, a shadow appeared at the end of the street. "Itachi..." I murmured to myself. "Sasuke, please take Obito's body and leave this place." I looked at Obito one last time. "Goodbye..." Sasuke didn't need to be told twice. He picked up Obito, and stumbled a few times, and dragged him out of the horrifying scene. I suddenly became aware of my surroundings, there were dead bodies all over the ground, and houses were ruined. I looked up at Itachi.

"Risa, please listen to me."

"No, you listen to me. I don't want to know why you did this, and I don't care, either. But if you're planning to leave Konoha, I'm going to stop you. I've already lost one of my teammates, and I'm not going to lose another. I'd rather die in the process of trying to stop you than see you betray Konoha!!" I saw the pain in Itachi's eyes, but I didn't stop. Scratch that. I couldn't stop. The words just came out, just like the tears from my eyes. "You're just going to leave and betray this village? The village that we grew up in? Are you? Well, guess what?! Go ahead and leave this place!! But before you go, just know that you're betraying me!!" I let all the tears out, the tears that I've been holding back while making my little speech.

"Risa, please, listen to me." Itachi pleaded. I didn't. Why should I listen to him? He should just go away and leave me, just like he was planning to do from the beginning. "Fine, if you're not going to listen to me, then..." He stopped, and I suddenly felt his fingers lifting my chin up. I looked into his eyes. I was lost in the darkness of his onyx eyes. They were so deep and dark, just like him, sometimes... Suddenly, I felt his lips crashing down onto mine. I was so overwhelmed by what happened to the Uchiha clan and Obito that I didn't have the energy to fight back. Suddenly, he pulled away. "Gomen, Risa, but I really have to go."

"But-"

"I love you, Risa." Then, he left. I was shocked. He left so suddenly. The tears came out harder then ever.

"I-I love you, too, Itachi." I whispered, hoping that wherever he went, he would always know that.

"And because I love you, I have to kill you." Itachi's voice sounded in my head. Suddenly, I was in a totally different place. Itachi was standing there with a katana in his hand, in his fighting stance, and ready to kill me. I screamed and tried to move, but I was tied against a tree by a rope. I saw Itachi running closer to me. My eyes were opened wide in fear. He jumped and brought the katana slashing down...

I sat up, breathing hard. It was just a dream, just a dream, I kept telling myself. Or a nightmare. I looked at the clock on my desk. It was only 3 in the morning. I lay back down on my bed. How long has it been since he left me? A couple of years has passed since that day. I realized that if I kept thinking of those things, I would never fall asleep again. So I let my body take over, and I soon fell into a deep sleep, with no murderous Itachis haunting me.
