Tears from an angel

A girl quickly ran through the dark, cold night. The rain was relentlessly hitting her bare skin, as all she was wearing was a tank top and shorts. Her tears mixed with the rain and she tripped over a tree root, crashing to the ground. She lied there the longest time, just sobbing and letting her tears hit the ground as the rain did. An older boy stood a little way off, watching the sad girl. She soon fainted from being out in the cold for so long and running so hard.

The boy quickly ran over to her and looked everywhere for a village sign so he could return her and get on his way. When he found on her person, her looked on her skin for a tattoo or something to tell him. He lifted up her shirt and saw something that made him gasp in surprise. A seal. Knowing the young girl was around 9 or 10 in age, the same age as his younger brother, he picked her up and took her back to where he was staying.

Another boy gasped when his friend came in sopping wet and carrying a young girl. A glare from his wet friend silenced him from saying anything else and the boy took to caring for his charge.

"Call the boss. I think this one could be of use to our organization."

A young woman with dark blonde hair gasped as she sat up from the dream. She felt tears come to her eyes and sat up, wiping them. She had been having that dream a lot lately, and somehow knew it's how she came to be in this organization. She had no memories from that time, no knowledge of what village she was in, nothing. She didn't even know who had brought her to the organization, but now she knew why. She had the five-tailed wolf demon Hinote. The thing was, Hinote was pure evil, but if used correctly, turned into the kinder side called Koori. Koori was the more dominant side unless the carrier was in danger. Suddenly, a stabbing pain went through her head.

"Fushigi. If you're going to be awake, you're going to work. Get down to the basement immediately." A man's voice stabbed through her head. She put a hand to it in pain and got dressed into her black outfit with red cloud-like symbols. She wore a Chinese-style outfit with arm and leg bandages and black nin-sandals. She then walked out of her room and walked down the dark, musty stairs to the basement. There, she walked to the center of the room and bowed.

"Yes, Pein-sama?" She murmured quietly. A wave of pain went through her and she did her best not to show that it hurt so much.

"You must go to the village hidden in the twilight. We have a feeling that there is another jinchuuriki there: the three-tailed bird. Go. Your partner will meet you at the gate of the compound." Though she rose, she kept her eyes on the floor. She quickly walked out of the room and up the stairs, gathering her things along the way out of the compound. Fastening her hat to her head, she saw another figure dressed in the same-style cloak she was in.

"Let's go." Was all he said before heading out. She stopped and gasped in surprise. That voice. She knew it from somewhere. The man looked back at her. "Are you coming or not?"

"Yeah, I'm coming. Keep your shirt on." She tried to hide the confusion in her voice. The whole way to the Twilight Village she was thinking all about her dream. After a week, they found out that it was just a rumor and the jinchuuriki wasn't there.

"Itachi." Fushigi called the man she had been on the mission with for a week and a half. The sharingan-eyed man turned to her, a strange look in his eyes. She suddenly felt very stupid for asking him.

"Yes, Fushigi?" He asked coldly. She flinched rapidly. Brushing it off quickly, she lifted her unusual blue eyes with red pupils to meet his red and black ones.

"Itachi, I have to ask you something. Something I've been wondering ever since I woke up in the Akatsuki compound. I ask you to answer this truthfully and without hesitation. Was it you? Were you the one who brought me to the Akatsuki? The one that saved my life?" Itachi looked her in the eyes. His barrier was broken, she could tell, and he smiled, his eyes warm.

"Yes. I've been waiting for you to figure it out. That night, I saw you running from something, crying. Ever since then, I've wanted to protect you. You will allow me to do that, won't you?" He asked, moving closer to her. Fushigi stepped closer to him, blushing happily.

"Yes, Itachi. I think, deep down, I always knew it was you…Itachi…" She whispered as his strong arms wrap around her and pull her into a tight embrace. She lifts her head to see into his eyes and is forced to close them in passion when his lips tenderly meet hers. When he deepened the kiss, she started kissing back, pouring out all her feelings and thoughts in one wave. A tear made it's way down her face and she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"You are no longer a mystery to me…" Itachi whispered close to her ear, his hot breath tickling her. "You are my tenshi, my angel." She smiled happily at him. He put his hand at her cheek and wiped off the tear. "And I want no more tears from my angel."
