Kakashi fell face first into the ground,he tried to get back up but he could no longer run. Kakashi could feel his eye sting with sweat and blood. He had been running so long he hadn't properly clean any of his wounds. ''Please . . . . . . don't . . . let . . . . him . . . find me.'' Kakashi miserable thought as he grab a patch of dry grass and start to crawl with all his strength he had left. Which was not much.
The dry grass felt like razor cutting into his already bleeding hands. The eerie quietness of the forest around him wasn't helping with Kakashi rapid heart beat. Kakashi staggered a moment before he fully gave up.
He couldn't beat Itachi he didn't even know why he even tried anymore. He would never succeed why bother. The sound of heavy footsteps coming towards him paralysis Kakashi with fear.
Immediately Kisame was upon the wounded ninja kicking the man in the side breaking Kakashi ribs with a loud crunch. ''Kakashi laid there helpless to endure Kisame beating.
''A whole freaking day it took us to find your sorry ass!'' Kisame barked,seizing Kakashi by his dirty sliver hair dragging the man to his feet. Kakashi buckle his leg under his own weight. His legs were unable to support his own weight. Kisame slap Kakashi across his face until Kakashi had blood dripping from the side of his face.
''Kisame stop he is no use to us dead.'' A cold murderous steel voice came from the shadow of the forest. With a puff of white smoke Itachi was standing next to his partner with his Sharingan activated.
''It would of been much easier for you if you just had submitted from the start,'' Itachi tauted as he grab Kakashi by his chin so both sharingan were looking into each other.
''Mangyoku Sharingan.'' Itachi whispered into Kakashi ear. Then Kakashi world went black.
Kakashi groan as the flames of the fire flicker in his eyes causing momentarily blindness for sliver hair ninja.
''I see that you are awake, here take this.'' Itachi held out a piece of dry fish Kisame caught in the river a while ago. ''Hey don't waste food on the prisoner it a waste if were going to kill him in the end.'' Kisame grinned.
Kakashi weakly slap Itachi hands away making Itachi drop the piece of dry fish onto the ground. ''Told you so.'' Kisame mock as he took Samehada and start cleaning dry bits of blood and fleash out of rigged curves in the sword.
''Take it.'' Itachi said as he torn another piece of his food and held it out to Kakashi.
Kakashi eyes were filled with anxiety and pain as he slightly open his mouth. Itachi was please that wounded ninja was eating something.
''What . . . . . . . . . do . . .. . . . you ... .want fro-m me?'' Kakashi rasp out as gripping his chest in pain. Itachi got up and shift over to Kakashi sitting infront of the wounded ninja who was suspiciously staring up at him.
''We are taking you back to our lair and possible extract useful information on Konoha and Kyubi.''
''A powerful organization such as the Akatsuki must have spies so why me?'' Kakashi ask as he grab Itachi cloak lightly thumbing over the red printed clouds.
There was a long eerie silence among the three,even Kisame had stop moving. A flock of bird swoop out of three top a distance away startling Kakashi but he didn't say anything.
''How much do you know about the Akatsuki?'' Itachi ask shocked.
''Shit if this buggers know our true plans Pein is going to be pissed. Kisame grunted out as stood up and walked over to Kakashi hunching down so that they were on eye level.
Kakashi ignored the remarked,he kept his head low staring into flickering flames in front of him. He was brought back to reality when he felt a large boot press into his chest. Kakashi glared up at Kisame who had crazy look in his eyes like before when he first caught Kakashi.
''So who told you about us huh?! Kisame demeaned kicking Kakashi in his lower abdomen. Kakashi gave a painful moan but kept quite he wasn't about betray Jiraiya trust like that. He could handle the pain he hoped.
''It will much easier for you in the end if you tell us now.'' Itachi bent down and cupped Kakashi face in his hands slightly running his fingers over the graze flesh . Kakashi cringe as one of Itachi fingers rub ageist a bruise on his lower chin.
