The village was burning to the ground. People were screaming, children crying, and with the shinobi unable to stop the invaders there was no way that the village would be saved. The invaders were two black robed men with red clouds on them. They were called the Akatsuki members of different ninja villages who deserted them to become missing nins and part of the diabolical organization. They travel in pairs of twos and search to find all of the Biju for world domination. One of these men who invaded the village was named Itachi Uchiha. Itachi was the last surviving member of the once famous Uchiha clan which he had murdered himself on orders of the hokage. By doing so he was forced to leave the village join Akatsuki leaded by his ancestor Madara Uchiha. Presently Itachi and his partner Arashi have been ordered to head to Yamigakure to find an extremely powerful demon that resides in the land of darkness

Itachi walked out of the fire and looked around for any survivors. Obviously there were none in this area as he had clearly killed them all. Still no sign of the Jinchuriki or anyone who would reveal its location. Arashi was overlooking the valley and saw an army of shinobi armed with tonfa and crossbows. "Looks like they aren't gonna give it up eh Itachi san?" Itachi ignored him and said, "The Jinchuriki must be in the Yamakage's mansion." Arashi grinned and chuckled, "Sounds like we have a our work cut out for us!" "I will go alone you. You will deal with Shinobi army while I go after the Jinchuriki" Itachi explained as he walked away slowly. Itachi had to battle his way through more and more ninja who tried to stop him from his goal. Itachi proved to them that none of them were in the same lead with him as he killed every single one of them in his way. None of them could ever predict his Sharingan or his mastery of all jutsu.

After making his way to the Kage's Mansion he saw a lone shinobi. He had a brown robe with a hood and had a slender build. "Akatsuki! What ever you want you won't find it here!" He yelled. "You cannot hide what I seek, now tell me where the Jinchuriki is now." Itachi calmly exclaimed. "Turn back now!" The Shinobi ordered as the unleashed a Katon: Goukakyu no Jutsu upon Itachi who easily deflected it with a slash of his Kunai. Itachi then used his own Goukakyu against to attempt the burn the man, which he avoided. This man was fast but not faster than Itachi. Itachi slashed repeatedly against his attacker who in turn blocked the attacks and parried them with ease. Itachi was impressed with this man's abilities but he had to capture the Jinchuriki no matter what so he must end this at once. Itachi then Tsukuyomi to imprison the ninja in the nightmare realm. The shinobi then fell to the floor and slowly stood up. The shinobi was by all means dazed but not unconscious unlike the other unfortunate victims of the genjutsu. Itachi slowly walked towards his opponent and gripped him by the throat. With all his strength he threw the ninja through two trees.

When the Ninja tried to stand up but Itachi used one more Goukakyu and it's massive power blasted the ninja through the manor burning all in its path. Itachi walked in to see that the charred ninja was still alive; he grabbed him by the throat and felt something in the air. "I sense someone far more powerful, Tell me where is your leader?" He choked the shinobi harder and he gasped, "Your darkness has clouded your mind. You killed the Yamikage the minute you attacked our village!" "Then you shall share the same fate." Itachi said as he prepared to stab him with a kunai. Suddenly a flash snatched the kunai right out of Itachi's hand and when he turned he saw a young boy holding the kunai to his back. Itachi turned and said "A son?" "Run!" Screamed the shinobi but before the boy could blink Itachi snapped his neck. Itachi stared at the boy. Of course the shinobi's son was the Jinchuriki he had chakra beyond any other ninja he has seen and could perhaps be the most powerful ninja to exist. The boy glared at him and backed away still holding the kunai. The boy reminded Itachi of another young boy who stood up to him after the death of his family. "Itachi san!" Arashi came appeared right next to Itachi and stared at the boy. "So this is the Jinchuriki. You're coming with us boy!" The boy stood his ground and held the kunai at Arashi. Arashi smiled and walked slowly to the boy, "Now this'll only hurt a lot boy!" Arashi laughed as he stepped closer. Before the boy could blink Itachi snatched the kunai from him and sliced Arashi once in the chest and once in the throat killing him instantly.

Itachi turned to the boy and said, "More will arrive shortly. Come with me and you will be safe." And to the boy's surprise Itachi turned his back to him and walked away slowly. The boy stared at the black and red-cloaked man, he was shocked the man kept walking and didn't have any tricks or surprises. Perhaps this man is being honest he thought and seeing he had no other choice he slowly followed the man but still watched him closely to make sure he wouldn't try anything.
