Chapter one

Past events and you

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto but I do own Mayume Uchiha and a lot of the ideas. Also this isn't a summary of the actual series!

For future reference… Mayume has long black hair tied up in a ponytail and she wears baggy cargo capris, and a navy blue Uchiha shirt (technically what Sasuke wears, but in a girl style).

Her name is Mayume Uchiha. She is 15 and, obviously, part of the lost Uchiha clan. She beleives that Itachi (Sasuke's older brother) and her were the sole survivors of the Uchiha clan and she never thought that she would see Sasuke again.

Kakashi is her "brother" (she were adopted by his family when the Uchiha clan fell), but she didn't know that he was alive either. She's been trying to find Konoha village after Itachi came looking for her. He destroyed the village where Kakashi's family had taken her in 5 years ago.

Sasuke and her were betrothed when they were 7 years old, even though she hardly knew him at the time. Her parents encouraged her to start spending time with him after that, and so she did. By the age of 9, Sasuke and Mayume were inseparable.


She was running through the forest towards Konoha.

'I know it's close by. I have to find it before that nin finds me.'

She stopped for a second in a clearing to look around and get a sense of direction before running off into the forest again. She could see the gates of Konoha and she knew that she would make it, except that the nin was standing right in front of her. She got out her kunai knifes and faced the stranger.

"I thought that since none of my ninjas could kill you, I would personally visit you." A man with a black and red cloak stepped out of the shadows. He was wearing a straw hat that sent menacing shadows over his face.

"Itachi… I've grown much stronger since the last time we fought. I WILL KILL YOU AND AVENGE MY CLAN…and Sasuke." The girl just stood there getting into a fighting position.

"No one can kill me. Not even the Hokage. I am too strong." He smirked and for the first time in a while, Mayume felt scared. She quickly pulled out a kunai and threw at him but he just caought it a threw it back at her. She did a few hand seals while doing a backflip to dodge the kunai and shouted "Grand fireball jutsu", and it hit Itachi on his left shoulder (She had been practicing this trap for months and she was glad that she finally had a chance to use it on someone).

"Wow! you actually touched me. I'm impressed, but not enough to let you live!" He just gave her that blood chilling smirk and went on attacking her. He threw some kunais at her that pinned her to a tree. But it was just a clone. He quickly killed it and looked around, waiting for anything that might give away her position. In fact Mayume was right above him in the tree trying to finish off a summon jutsu that would let her damage Itachi.


A few minutes earlier at the Konoha gates…

Two Jounin were on guard duty; Kakashi and Iruka.

"Hey, Iruka… do you feel two strong chakras near the village?", Kakashi peeked his head over his book (N/A You know the one!). "Ya, I was just gonna suggest that we go check it out", Iruka had been resting against one of the walls and was looking out into the forest. "I agree let's go!", Kakashi put down "Come, Come Paradise" and ran off into the forest with Iruka.


Mayume was about to release the jutsu when she felt a kunai pressing against your throat. "Found you!" Itachi said in a mocking tone. He threw her to the hard floor of the forest and threw his kunai right at her and it hit her in the stomach. 'O God' she thought 'I'm gonna die here, maybe I wasn't strong enough to face him.' she started coughing up blood and was now laying in a pile of her own crimson liquid. Just before she passed out from blood loss and pain, she saw two ninjas from Konoha village jump into the clearing. Itachi just growled at them. "I will come back for you and finish killing off my clan." He walked into the shadows and ran off into the night.
