Chapter 1:The Note

Summary:Two souls. One world and one chance to stop a crazed outcast from destroying everything they know. Under the scrutiny of one Seto Kaiba, Itachi Uchiha and Kai Hiwatari will have to overcome their differences in order to save their world and themselves from the ultimate adversary:Carvarrin Jaleks from Sentrail.

Disclaimer:Don't own Naruto and don't own Beyblade, either. Wish I did own Naruto,though. Itachi is damn smexy. I do own the idea of Carvarrin Jaleks and Dark Sentrail. Oh, and on one note, the first "r" in Carvarrin is silent!

This story is also a profit of way too much anime watching and my disappointment that Itachi died. So to make up for him being dead, I intend to write as many stories about him as possible.

Chapter 1:The Note

Darkness was calling my name. I just couldn't shut it out anymore. The world had denied me entrance in to their perfect little bubble, but now I would burst it.

Permanently.

"You have no chance against me, Hiwatari,"

The blood-red irises of my worst enemy mocked me as he repeatedly inflicted the torture of the Tsukuyomi on me. However, it had no effect.

I have no nightmares. I'm too strong to be captured by something as trivial as "jutsu" nonsense, but I let him think he's defeated me.

I've done this every time we've fought.

So I can build him up..and then .down.

But more about that later. Right now we're focusing on what he's doing to me at the moment. Our battle.

"If that's true, then why am I still standing?"I spat out through gritted teeth, fighting back a smug smile from crossing my pale, bloodless lips.

Itachi's face remained unperturbed.

"Stubbornness wins nothing for you,"he said by way of an answer, his tone cold and colourless.

I chuckled with a weird gurgling noise, forcing up some blood in the process to make it look like I was really suffering from his attack.

"Who says this is stubbornness?Maybe I'm just strong enough not to give in to you,"I retorted, putting on a great show of sounding weak and desperate.

He laughed without humor into my face.

No expression crossed his face the entire time.

"Strong you may be, but even the strongest fall in time,"he commented and with that elegant parting sentence, he was gone with a whirl of his cloak and doused in smoke. I wiped the blood off of my mouth and got to my feet.

It was getting rather tiresome, listening to that ignorant little bastard, but I would only have to deal with it for a little while longer.

The full star was coming and that was when my initial plan would come full circle.

Uchiha would fall.

I allowed a smirk to cross onto my pale features as I pulled my own cloak tighter over my shoulders and turned to leave the sight of my latest play.

The sight disappeared behind me and transformed into the abandoned hut where I had taken my latest refuge.

I sighed with obvious relief.

There was no need for my facade within those walls and re-entering them would be the best thing that had happened to me all night.

The door swung open at my touch and I dropped my cloak beside the door on the way in.

"Kai,"Ray's calm, collected voice called as I made my way through the threshold with my eyes closed and arms folded.

I slowly lifted my pale eyelids to reveal my insipid amethyst eyes staring at Ray with mild interest.

"What is it, Ray?"I questioned, the smirk leaving my lips as quickly as it had come and it was replaced with a thin line.

My interest would waver incredibly quickly if Ray didn't bring anything of importance up.

Ray shifted uncomfortably. "There's a message for you inside,"he gestured to the direction where the message was left.

I walked past him in the direction he indicated and found the message he was talking about.

It looked formal and important, considering the laminate(sp?) paper and script writing. It looked official.

I leaned against the wall to read it.

Dear Mr. Hiwatari ,

I assure you I wouldn't be calling on you unless it was of the utmost importance, but there is a threat coming to your home.
He is on the move from Sentrail. He knows who you are and he knows where to find you. There is no use in running. My advice to you is fight. Fight, or you will forever be branded as a coward. Make your decision.

That was it. There was no signature, only an insignia that was completely unfamiliar to me.

I whirled around to face Ray's anxious features. "Did you read this?"I demanded, trying to keep the suspicion out of my voice.

Ray shook his head furiously. "Absolutely not,"he insisted, holding up his hands in a gesture of innocence.

I laid a comforting hand on his shoulder to calm him down."Relax, Ray, I'm only asking,"I told him quietly, turning away from him and tucking the letter into my coat pocket. "Kai,"Ray called again.

I stopped in my tracks.

"What?"I replied in a barely perceptible tone with my back still to Ray.

I heard him shift again, as if he was struggling with what exactly to say.

"I didn't think you knew the person who delivered the message, so I asked them who they were and,"Ray swallowed, "they said they were coming for you and another."

This grabbed my attention instantly and I opened my eyes, but deliberately kept my back to Ray. "Who?"I questioned seriously, plunging my shaking hand into my pocket so Ray wouldn't see it shaking.

That was when Ray said the one name I knew I didn't want to hear.

"Uchiha."

Well there's Chapter 1. Hoped you liked it and also, I realize it was a little short, but the next one will be longer, I promise. And just in case my friend, Shannara ever reads this, I'm gonna post a note now that says I'll be modeling a character after you, Nara, so be ready for that. Laterz!^^
