"Doctor" Itachi said, unable to knock on the door since Naxa was unconscious in his arms.
The door opened and revealed a man with glasses in a white coat. Itachi went by him to get inside and set Naxa on a table in the middle of the dark room.
"How do you expect her to live with her heart condition and your training methods?" the doctor sighed and turned on the lights.
The room was big with medicine cabinets and machines with blinking lights on them.
Itachi didn't answer but looked at the girl.
"You came to me a year ago with her in the same position! Of course she didn't have all these cuts all over her," the doctor walked over to her and felt her head. "At least she doesn't have a fever."
The doctor began to heal Naxa's wounds and quickly she was good as new.
"Did she take her medicine today?" the doctor asked as he washed the blood off her face.
"Yes," Itachi replied.
"I don't understand if you want her to live or not…the way you train her. Its one thing when you-,"
"Katsuro, one year ago she told me her goal in life was to kill Orochimaru. In order for her to do that she needs to get stronger mentally and physically-,"
"Are you sure that's it? Maybe she wants something else in life. Maybe if we tell her the truth-,"
"If she finds out the truth she will become blinded. Plus you don't want it to effect her heart now do you Katsuro?" Itachi said coldly.
Katsuro stayed silent and glared at Itachi.
"She is like a daughter to you is she not?" Itachi began. "You wouldn't want anything to happen to her I'm sure," he finished and walked out of the room.
Katsuro looked at Naxa and sighed. "Damn you Itachi."
It had been a year since she left Konoha and all she has been doing is training and going on missions with Itachi. On their way to Katsuro's for the first time Naxa had gotten into a critical state and had gone unconscious. When she arrived at Katsuro's she had been in Itachi's hands. She had to do through tests and procedures just like Katsuro's first patient a while back. Katsuro had promised himself he wouldn't let this girl die like his last patient. He made a pill just for her. She needed to take it everyday for two and a half years. During those years Katsuro had dedicated his life to finding a cure instead of medicine that makes the pain go away for a certain time as well as her transformation.
Itachi had endured her transformation a few times. On missions to hard for Naxa she would be on the bridge of death but luckily she transformed. Her transformation has changed over the year and had gotten stronger. Katsuro believes it will take over her one day and Naxa will never be "Naxa" again.
Over the time Naxa grew lighter toward Itachi. For a long while she hated his very name, now she calls his name all the time. In the beginning she never smiled nor talked; now she will reveal a smile every now and then and she talks with Itachi all the time. Of course he doesn't reply all the time. Even though things had changed between them Naxa still has one thing in mind: To kill Orochimaru for her sake and Sasuke's. She never mentioned Sasuke around Itachi but she does think of him every now and then. She wonders if he's okay when she has the chance to rest but other then that Sasuke has slipped her mind.
Naruto is actually on her mind quite often. The way she left things she can't help but feel bad. She wonders if everyone hates her and if she will ever be able to go back to her only home. Itachi usually trains her but every now and then he takes her on a mission. Half the time he'll have her fight him and he won't go easy on her. Other times he'll train her mentally through his sharingan. She has gotten so much stronger but lately darkness has begun to spread through her.

"Naxa?"
Naxa groaned and slowly opened her eyes to see a man with shaggy dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. She smiled when she saw him; he was like a father to her.
"Dr. Katsuro," she whispered.
"How are you feeling?"
"So much better, thanks," she sat up slowly.
"Listen…how have things been with Itachi lately?" Katsuro began.
"Better," she replied instantly.
"That's good…how about the training?"
"Harder," she sighed.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Shoot."
"Is there something else you want out of life besides killing Orochimaru?" he regretted the question with her reaction.
She clenched her fists. "Orochimaru…will die. I have no other reason to live in this life but to kill him. He has taken so much from me! I'll never-!"
"Calm down Naxa! We don't want your heart to cause problems by your emotions remember?" he said.
"Sorry…" she calmed herself down.
Katsuro looked behind Naxa at the doorway. Itachi was glaring at him then looked to Naxa.
"Your awake," Itachi came in the room.
"Yes," Naxa turned to see him.
"Time to leave," Itachi went by her to the door from which they had come in before.
"Itachi I don't think-," Katsuro began.
"Katsuro, we have some things to do. She took her medicine, and now you've healed her. It's time for us to go," he opened the door and walked out.
"Katsuro I'm sorry," Naxa frowned and ran after Itachi.
"Naxa…" Katsuro trailed off as the door shut from behind her.
1 ½ years later…
"Naxa" Itachi said on the other side of the door.
Naxa didn't answer, so Itachi left. Whenever Naxa didn't answer Itachi assumed she was asleep which she needed it since the past few years she hasn't been sleeping much. But Naxa lay on her bed with her eyes open.
"It's been two and a half years…." She whispered to herself.
She knew it was time for many things. She sat up and sighed. Her hair had grown very long. She put it up in a bow and in a tight braid. Her bangs were still cut to the length of her nose and to the side of her face. She was now sixteen years old and has grown.
She looked at the bottle on the table. It was her medicine. Her doctor Katsuro gave her a refill a few months ago and now it's almost empty.
"That's the last refill…" she trailed off.
Naxa stood up and stretched. Of course with her growing she obtained a new outfit. She wore dark blue pants with black ninja sandals and a black tank top with a sleeveless dark blue zipper vest. She kept it zipped up about half way up her chest revealing her black tank top.
Naxa looked across the room at her sword. It was a gift from Katsuro. He never told her where he got it but she loved it. It was a broad sword, the length of a normal sword, and it had a sheath with a harness for her to carry it around her back. She went and grabbed it and strapped it around her chest then grabbed her newly made hooded cloak. She tied it around her neck then put the hood over her face. She then put her hair in the hood and put up a mask around her mouth allowing only her eyes showing. Lastly she grabbed her medicine and put it in a pouch attached to her waist.
"Itachi…I will pay you back for all that you've done for me but first…someone must die." She said and opened the window. She jumped out and ran into the darkness of the forest.
Let the journey begin…
