A/N: Hello, I know you all must be dying to know what happens. Well read and enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, I wish I did though…I'd cut out most of the boring pointless fillers!!!!!!!!!!

Blood dropped on the ground. Sakura looked at it. It wasn't hers. She looked up at Itachi. In one hand he was holding a long sword which was blocking another sword. His other hand was extended over her head. She followed his arm and saw that it was holding a kunai knife that was pierced into Sasuke's arm. Sakura gasped and Sasuke winced in pain and he jumped away from his brother.

Sasuke had hoped that Itachi would have been fooled if it looked like he was aiming for Sakura. He didn't think that Itachi would block and attack him at the same time.

"Foolish brother," Itachi whispered. "You out of all people should know that a frontal attack on me can be fatal."

Sasuke growled. Itachi was right. However, if Itachi moved any slower, Sasuke would have slashed his shoulder; he could have easily defeated him after that. Sasuke pulled the kunai knife out of his shoulder. He slowly got up and got into his fighting stance. Itachi looked at him and smiled.

"Sasuke, how can you hope to defeat me, your older brother, when you can't even kill this girl." Itachi called as he got into his fighting stance.

"Don't worry," Sasuke yelled as he started to run toward Itachi, "I'll defeat you my own way!"

Itachi didn't say anything. He stepped on Sakura's back (A/N: isn't he so mean?!) and charged at Sasuke. Sakura heard swords clashing. She looked ahead and saw Sasuke and Itachi fighting. It looked like Sasuke was barely keeping up with Itachi's.

"Sasuke," Sakura whispered. "I know you can win, I know you can."

I can do this! Sasuke thought I trained with Orichimaru, I defeated Naruto. Itachi, I will defeat you today!! Sasuke kicked at Itachi but Itachi caught his leg. He lifted Sasuke up and threw him. Right as Sasuke hit the ground, he made hand symbols. Itachi recognized it and made the same signs.

"Fire release! Phoenix Immortal Style Jutsu!" The brothers shouted.

They took a deep breath and exhaled. A huge amount of fire left their mouth. The fire crashed into each other and fire exploded everywhere. It looked like Sasuke's fireball was pushing Itachi's back toward him but Itachi started to charge again. Eventually, Sasuke couldn't hold him off for long and the Itachi's fireball crashed into him. Sasuke was sent flying even farther away. He crashed into the cold snow which flew all around him. Sakura watched in fear.

Sasuke wasn't finished though, it was far from over. Sasuke looked for the long sword. When he saw that it was in front of him, he picked it up and pointed it to Itachi. Itachi glared at him and pointed his sword back. Sasuke smiled and charged at Itachi again. This time before Sasuke actually attacked him, he threw an item at Itachi. He wasn't sure what Sasuke threw at him but he wasn't about to fall into his trap. Itachi started to run in zig zag patterns. Sasuke was still throwing this. Itachi started at the items that Sasuke was throwing and realized what it was. Thin lined strings were present everywhere. Itachi kept glaring at Sasuke who was still throwing them around. Did Sasuke really expect that he could use a trap on him using something as useless as thin-lined string? Itachi was closer to Sasuke. He lifted his sword to attack when Sasuke started making hand symbols. Itachi came to an abrupt stop and dodge the on coming fire ball.

"FIRE RELEASE! DRAGON FIRE JUTSU!" Sasuke yelled.

He jumped up and started blowing out fire balls. Itachi dodged them while throwing sharicans, hoping to counter attack. Suddenly, Itachi's arms were burning. Before he could react, his whole body was burning. Sasuke kept blowing out fireballs. Itachi didn't understand. He was successful in dodging all of them. It wasn't until he hit one of the strings that Sasuke threw at him when he realized what was going on. All though Itachi was dodging all the attacks, the strings caught in fire and Itachi was in the middle. Fire exploded all around him. Itachi felt his back being singed by the hungry, angry flames. Sasuke made another hand sign.

"Phoniex immortal style justu!!" Sasuke shouted as he took a very deep breath.

Itachi growled started to make hand signs as well but he was interrupted when a kunai knife was thrown behind him. Itachi caught in time and Sasuke's attack charged towards him. There was a huge explosion. Fire was everywhere; snow around the area immediately turned to water. Sasuke stared at the bon fire, trying to catch his breath. He was exhausted, very exhausted. Something was wrong. His world was fading in and out of blurriness.

"Sasuke!" Sakura shouted.

"No way," Kisame whispered. "Itachi's not defeated…is he."

"Sasuke," Sakura shouted again as she scrambled to her feet.

She was about to run to him when Sasuke put his hand up.

"Don't come any closer!" Sasuke shouted. He knew the battle wasn't over

Finally the fire cleared away leaving only a couple of flames spread out. The sky which had turned red was started to get covered by thick white clouds. Itachi was still standing in the middle, where the snow had melted and the ground was burnt. The handle of his sword was red from the burning hot flames. Itachi's jet black hair was covering his pale face. Sasuke growled, took his sword and pointed it at Itachi again. He saw Itachi smile. He smiled at him. Itachi slowly lifted his head. Sasuke glared into his blood red eyes. Itachi pointed his sword back at Sasuke.

Sakura didn't move. She took good look at Itachi and saw that he had burnt marks all over his arms. As she observed him, she realized that most of his cloak was burned off.

Itachi started to laugh.

"What's so funny" Sasuke shouted.

"Foolish brother," Itachi glared at Sasuke. "Did you really think you could beat me like that?"

Itachi started to walk up to Sasuke but Sasuke slowly backed up. He was staring at Itachi's eye, his blood red eyes. They were filled with nothing but hate and murderous intent. The problem was, Sasuke was tired and he was wounded. Truth was, he wasn't sure how much more he could take.

Without warning Itachi appeared in front of Sasuke and he dug his fist into his stomach and had deep as he possible could. Sasuke spit up blood which fell onto the white snow. Sakura cried out.

"This battle is far from over," Itachi smiled evilly.

A/N: Hey peoples! Okay the plan was to make these story three chapters but…I changed my mind, it's going to be four. So I hope you enjoyed this chapter and everything and I'll be working on the next one. Note: Itachi hasn't forgotten about Sakura…Sasuke isn't his only target…
