Blood and Moon
Gravitation
The two kunoichi stepped into the destroyed clearing warily. They were Haruno Sakura and Hyuuga Hinata, two of the most talented kunoichi of the shinobi nations, and both from humble beginnings as warriors.
The two targets were well known traitors, and like pebbles thrown into a calm surface left ripples throughout the nations that only expanded. Ironically enough they were brothers who battled and, yet emulated each other. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree as they say (the handsome, power-hungry, stoic, pole-up-their-ass tree). Even though it was a mission they could not pretend that the targets meant nothing to them; they were in fact their other half that were lying upon the ground bleeding slowly in the rain.
"Itachi…"
"I'll take care of Sasuke, Hinata" Sakura said gently laying her hand on Hinata's shoulder. Hinata nodded as if in a trance.
"Well if it isn't my brother's whore" Sasuke spat as he stood up slowly and gracelessly with Sakura's help. He didn't notice the spark of anger and hard set to Itachi's mouth. Hinata ignored Sasuke as she knelt besides the merciless missing-nin that she loved.
"Itachi" she said softly again.
"Hinata" he rasped turning his blind eyes to her. His hand reached towards her face then hesitated only inches away. Hinata took his callused palm into her own trembling hand and guided it to her cheek.
She brought her delicate pale hands to the hole in his chest from Chidori and concentrates her chakra as the blood slicks her palms and flows through her fingers. For once she was confident in her own abilities. The wounds knitted together slowly under Hinata's delicate hands. She could only do enough to keep Itachi alive on the journey to the ANBU outpost where Tsunade was waiting.
Across the clearing formed from ruins (because Uchiha battles were never small and neat) Sakura was healing Sasuke's extensive injuries while he was in restraints. Sasuke had been watching his brother and the kunoichi and could only now sense the small acumalation of chakra in the Hyuuga's womb. A firm hand holds him back as he unconsciously draws his katana and steps forward and he looks into green eyes.
"Let them be"
And because it is her who holds him back he watches as they gravitate around each other.
Uchiha and Hyuuga.
The dance of two clans (a dance of power and betrayal) binds the two firstborns in a slow tango and begins their story. And when it ends they will see with eyes unclouded. One with eyes of the moon, the other with eyes of blood.
