Three kunai flew at him from behind. Itachi turned and blocked two of them, but the third knocked his headband off. He landed and looked in shock at Sasuke landing not far away. Sasuke collapsed. Itachi stared at him. He tried to turn and leave, but he couldn't move.
Itachi tied his headband back on and then picked Sasuke up. He ran from Konoha with his little brother held securely against his chest.
