"Itachi-san, may I have a word with you?" Kisame Hoshigaki, scourge of the hidden mist, said to the nonchalant teenager that was passing him in the hallway. Itachi then followed Kisame down the hallway until they stopped by their room and went in.
"So, what do you want to talk about, Kisame? I'm very busy since I have to get ready to fight my insolent little brother." Itachi said. Kisame nodded his head.
"I know, I know. I just wanted to talk with you before you did all that." Kisame explained. "Look Itachi, this is a big risk. I know that you are really strong and really talented but you still could get killed." Kisame said until he was interrupted by Itachi.
"Kisame, I have to do this. Right now, Sasuke is our biggest obstacle to get my jinchuuriki. Keep that in mind." Itachi retorted, crossing his arms.
Kisame placed his hands on Itachi's shoulders and said, "Itachi, I'm not talking about the jinchuuriki, it's your health and safety that I'm worried about right now."
Itachi pushed Kisame's hands off of his shoulders and remarked, "Kisame, you shouldn't really be caring about me that much. My health should not be your top priority. I know we're partners and friends, but that doesn't really matter right now. I'm putting my life on the line for a reason and you shouldn't be whining about my health." Kisame looked away and grimaced. "What is your problem? That's reality and I'm just explaining it to you. Don't get all fussy." Itachi said, annoyed by Kisame's actions. Kisame just sat there and did not say a word.
There was complete silence in the room until it was broke by the door opening. "Hey, you two, it's time for lunch. Are you two going to have anything or are you two going to stare at each other more instead?" A femininely voice said. A kunai was thrown by Itachi and it barely hit the woman standing in the doorway.
"We'll get something later, Konan. I suggest that you leave immediately." Itachi said, glaring at Konan.
"Okay, Okay, I get it, I'll go away!" Konan said, walking out the door.
"So, are you going to tell me anything or shall we go and get something to eat?" Itachi asked, turning his attention to his partner, Kisame.
"No, go and get something to eat for yourself." Kisame said. Itachi nodded his head. "You know, you really need to eat something too. If you want, I could bring you something if you don't want to go out there." Itachi asked. Kisame just shook his head.
"No, I don't want to be a bother. Plus, I'm not that hungry right now." Kisame answered.
Itachi shrugged his shoulders and remarked, "Okay." Itachi opened the door and walked out. He closed the door and as soon as it was closed, Kisame threw a kunai at a wall across from him.
"I wish I can just tell Itachi what I want to say instead of just saying nothing at all." Kisame sighed.
