Hi all! this is my first Naruto story, so please go easy on me. this is a oneshot, I might make it a twoshot in the future. Please review and tell me what you think.

Warning: I don't care about sensible, so don't try to make sense of how Itachi and Kisame got here. As this is my first time writing them, they are probably OOC.

Enjoy.


The raven sat up, startled at the fact he was still breathing.

"How am I alive" he wondered, standing up.

The last thing he remembered was poking Sasuke, and then darkness, consuming him as he smiled, Sasuke would take his eyes, and the village would be safe.

He opened his eyes and stood up, looking around, then paused in astonishment, his sight was perfect, he could see. There was no blurriness or anything.

"How is this possible" he asked.

A growl sounded behind him, it startled him because he didn't sense anyone's Chakra behind him, but he turned anyway and came face to face with a... corpse.

The thing that used to be human had gray skin, its eyes were milky white, ringed with green and yellow, a large portion of its neck was missing, and its chest had several chunks bitten out. It was growling and stumbling toward Itachi, arms reaching for the fresh meat it could smell just in front of it.

The ninja was startled to say the least, but kept calm and prepared to fight. He started preforming the hand signs for Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, and blew it at the corpse.

Nothing came out of his mouth but air, he felt a sliver of panic when he couldn't feel his Chakra, it wasn't there, none of it.

The creature continued stumbling toward him, intent on food. Itachi pushed down his fear and grabbed a kunai from his bag, throwing it with deadly accuracy, then stared in disbelief as the monster continued towards him, a kunai buried in its chest. He threw two more, one hit it in the leg, and the other in the eye. It crumpled to the ground, and didn't move again.

With the immediate threat out of the way, he took stock of his surroundings.

He was in a forest, the trees were about twenty feet tall, and not very thick. fallen foliage covered the ground. No other life was visible, and no birds could be heard.

He looked down, he was in the exact thing he had died in, it wasn't covered in blood though. As best he could tell, he was no longer in the elemental nations. He decided to find shelter, food, water and clothing. In that order. And find out why his Chakra didn't work.

Over the next few days, he tested his limits. The sickness that had been plaguing him was gone, and his body was in top working order. He felt his age rather then twenty years older.

He also found out that his jutsus did still work, it was just slightly different. Instead of draining Chakra, it simply made him a little tired. Much less then when it was drawing on his Chakra.

His most loved discovery was when he found out that his Sharingan was active, and he could leave it active for eternity. His Mangeko tired him out quickly, but it didn't make him go blind. It was like having eternal Mangeko. His taijutsu was also in peak condition.

He had also found new clothes, he now wore black jeans, black t-shirt, and a black leather jacket. He also wore dark brown steel toed boots, unfortunately, the abandoned store didn't have any boots in black.

He had also found a pair of silver tinted sports glasses, and a leather spike bracelet. He had seen it and had a million ideas of how to turn the bracelet into a weapon. All in all, Itachi Uchiha was now in full punk style, and pulling it off pretty good.

~One week after arriving~

He heard a thunk, and felt a surge of Chakra. It was only a quick flash, but he headed towards it anyway.

Imagine the former Konaha ninja's surprise when sprawled out on the ground before him, alive and healthy and asleep, was Kisame, his former partner in the Akatsuki.

The shark man looked only a little different, the gills on his face were thin black tattoos instead, but he was still tall , and blue as a fish. He also noticed his, huh, he guessed Kisame was a friend, was missing a certain sword. The fish was missing his cloak, and his ring.

The blue man suddenly sprung up, punching at Itachi, and ready to fight. The Uchiha dodged easily before saying quietly

"Try that again and I will hurt you" the fire user warned. He felt surprise when Kisame got a large smile at seeing the Uchiha alive

"This doesn't look like the afterlife, where am I" Kisame asked, subtly pinching himself to make sure he was awake. It was good to see his friend again, but he was pretty sure they were both dead, Itachi had died fighting Sasuke, and he had just had his shark kill him before he could unwillingly betray the Akatsuki.

"My best guess is that we are in a alternate universe, nothing is the same here. There also appears to be a zombie apocalypse happening, the corpses can only be killed if the brain is destroyed." Itachi summed up, Kisame nodded absently, rubbing his back were Samehada normally sat. He still felt a sharp stab of betrayal that the sword had betrayed him for that idiot Killer Bee.

"How long have you been here?" the shark asked,

"a week, where's Samehada?"

"It betrayed me, I thought I died, but I guess I was wrong."

"we should go, its not safe at night, follow me" Itachi led the other to his temporary base.

At the shopping mall were Itachi had got his new clothes, they found Kisame a large brown trench coat, boots, pants and a brown shirt. They also found a pair of silver aviator sunglasses that fit Kisame well, and a black fedora with a shark on it.

Itachi was rather annoyed that they had black boots in Kisame's size, but not his.

The two sat around the fire and talked about what had happened since Itachi's death. The leaf ninja also taught Kisame how to use his jutsu in this new world.

The next morning they were awakened by a large herd of walkers pounding the doors. They decided to save their energy and ran into the woods instead of fighting. Kisame was less then thrilled, but followed Itachi's lead.

As they walked, they noticed smoke up ahead. As they drew closer they could see a group of buildings, with a fence separating the buildings from the outside world, judging from his knowledge of this reality, Itachi made a educated guess that it was a prison before the world ended. The sign that read 'Georgia state prison, 1 mile' had "nothing" to do with his guess.

They hid in the tree's and watched as a two groups faced off. They listened intently as they argued, the outside group with the tank wanted the prison, the inside group didn't want to give it up. And neither was willing to compromise.

"either turn over the prison, or you can say goodbye to gramps here." the leader of the tank group yelled out/ He dragged a old man and a black woman from one of the cars, and placed a katana at the old mans throat. Itachi saw two of the woman on the inside scream in horror, and struggle to get to the elderly man, he realized those were his daughters.

He felt his sharingan activate, in a world like this family was important, he wasn't going to let this one eyed idiot kill the father. He was fed up with one eyed people ruining lives .

Rick stared at Herschel, feeling helpless, he couldn't give up the prison to the governor, but he couldn't just sit here and watch the older man be killed in front of his daughters.

Suddenly he heard a scream from behind the enemy lines. A bright fireball lit up the back cars as they exploded, glass shattered and chaos rained.

He watched as the katana the Governor was holding raised, and yelled "no!".

The katana started its deadly path downwards. Rick watched in horror, there was nothing he could do.

The one eyed mans arm was suddenly, and brutally stopped. A small hand had grabbed the taller mans arm and yanked him off balance, kicking one leg out from under him. The Governor was yanked onto his side, the katana landing out of reach, and a less then amused Itachi staring him in the eyes.

The last word he heard in the real world was.

"Tsukuyomi"

Two hours later (fifteen seconds in the real world), Philip Blake died of a heart attack from the pain.

Rick stared at the two newcomers, both of whom continued fighting the Governor's forces. They moved extremely fast, dodging bullets and throwing knifes at anyone in their way. The prison group started shooting as well, making sure not to hit their potential allies.

Shortly, the surviving enemy forces retreated, leaving several corpses and the tank behind.

Rick saw Herschel and Michonne stand up, the katana user grabbed her sword and helped Herschel make his way toward the gate. His two daughters ran to the gate, opening it and helping their father through. The former sheriff noticed that the two responsible for saving the old farmers life had also entered, keeping a eye on the rear and killing any walkers that got too close.

Rick marched out towards the happy family, and saw Daryl and Carol fall in behind him. He stopped in front of the Greene family and nodded at Michonne, he was glad she was ok. The prison people stepped out of the way, revealing the two saviors, who where currently standing rather relaxed, looking around in mild interest.

The shorter one raised his head and met Ricks eyes head on. He had pale skin and black hair tied at the base of his neck. Locks of hair framed his face, which made him look just a little feminine. He stood about 5' 8", and was wearing allot of black. Rick couldn't tell what color his eyes were because of a pair of silver tinted sunglasses.

His companion was taller at 6' 4", but much... different in appearance. He had blue skin. He also had six black tattoos, three on each side of his face. He had blue hair, that was relatively short. He wore brown pants, and a brown trench-coat. He also wore silver tinted sunglasses, but these were in a aviator style rather then sport style.

"Thank you for saving my dad" Beth said suddenly, clomping onto the shorter one, who looked a little surprised.

"Your welcome" he stated in a smooth voice, gently pushing Beth off, looking just a little uncomfortable. The blue one chuckled at his friends discomfort.

"Whats your name?" Beth questioned, genuinely curious about their saviors. Before either could answer, the blonds older sister pulled her away, saying "Beth, leave them alone. Help me get daddy to the prison." the blond followed, albeit reluctantly.

"I'm Rick Grimes, behind me are Carol and Daryl, who are you?" asked the sheriff. He had been impressed by their fighting ability.

Kisame looked at Itachi for permission, the Uchiha just shrugged, why not.

"I'm Kisame, this is Itachi. Heh, lucky for you we came around, you were about to get mauled" the shark couldn't help poking at them, it was so funny watching people squirm and admit they needed help.

He was not disappointed, the man who had introduced himself as Rick twisted uncomfortably before saying "We might not have made it, at least Herschel wouldn't have. Do you have a group?" he asked suddenly, if these two didn't already have a group, maybe they would stay here. It would be good to have more people, even if they were blue.

"No, and if you wanted us to stay, you could just ask." Itachi spoke, enjoying surprised look on Rick's face. The missing nin was pretty good at reading people.

"alright, would you like to join us? It would be safer in a group, you would have to help out around the prison but we're good people, and I sense you are too." Rick waited for their answer.

Kisame snorted under his breath, 'hah! Good people? Us? This guy knows nothing.' he thought, then looked to Itachi again for answers, he tended to leave the none fighting options to the shorter man.

Itachi thought for a moment, this might be a good idea. He had a new life, a new chance, and with his and Kisame's abilitys no one would die.

But, if they stayed, questions would be asked, secrets revealed. And someone might attack them once they were off guard.

But he could see children in the prison, and who knew what would happen to them if the two ninjas left. What if they were attacked again? Itachi wasn't going to let children die if he could help it.

He came to a decision.

"Sure"


The idea of punk!Itachi was inspired by he-wh0-must-n0t-be-named.
