Chapter 2 A Visit Not Welcomed

"Brother can I please come in it's starting to snow," My dad pleaded out of annoyance. I was hiding behind him out of shyness. This was of course because we never had any visitors come in the Akatsuki, so I didn't know how to act.

When I did look out from behind him I saw a lady with pink hair, green eyes, and a similar outfit as the people that we fought before, only hers had a cross on it showing that she must be a medical Nin. She whispered something to the guy standing in the doorway who was a tall as my dad, but his hair was a bluish-black color and stood up in the back like a bird.

"It's ok Itachi, you can come in. After all I think Sen wants to meet her uncle," the pick haired lady said hesitantly. It seemed like either people in this village were frightened by my dad, or hated him. This just made me wonder, "Why are we here anyway?"

When walking inside I started to trail away from my dad to get a good look at the house. It was big and had a lot of Uchiha signs, and decorations. There was a living room next to the kitchen that then leaded to a dining room. Once coming back to the living room you saw a hallway that lead to a number of different rooms. It was surprisingly a lot like the base that I stayed most of the time.

"Sasuke, don't be rude. Introduce your family," the pink haired lady demanded.

"Itachi this is my wife Sakura," the guy that is supposedly my uncle Sasuke said reluctantly.

"Hi," Sakura said introducing herself when named.

"Hello," my dad replied.

"And this is my daughter Sen."

"Hello uncle," the girl said sheepishly. She looked a lot like her dad only her hair was a little longer.

"Hi Sen," Itachi replied but then soon spoke up, "I would in turn like you to meet my daughter Senatae."

Me, not really paying attention anymore to the family anymore, but again to the decorations, quickly replied with a short, "Hi," only to look back to where I was previously looking at.

Sen probably tired of introductions then asked, "I'm going to my room; Senatae, do you want to come see my room? I have some ninja tools we can look at, I mean if you want to…"

I didn't want to go that much since I already have all that stuff in my bag, but it was better than being bored here, so I turned to my dad and told I'd be right back.

I Sen's room she showed me her shuriken bag, and where her kunai were but when she showed me her scrolls she seemed to really perk up. Then pushed a lightening scroll and two fire scrolls.

"Wow you room is pretty cool. I have to share one with my dad, which isn't fun when he and Kisame snore," I said with a little chuckle.

"Do you want to see if you can spend the night here?" Sen asked. I then explained that I had brought a suitcase with me so I think that was what my dad was planning, or hoping at least.

I understanding Sen then asked a little excitedly, "Do you want to see who is stronger first?" She sure does show a lot of emotion though I guess you wouldn't have to hide it if you are in your own village.

We then cleared a space to fight and went at it after a couple of minutes I had pinned her twice and she only got me once. This was the final round and she said that whoever pinned the other person won't the match. I guess she wanted to have a better shot at winning. 1…2…3…GO! She had grabbed my arm and blocked my punch at her. She was about to pin me when I flipped over slamming her onto the ground. The next thing I know though she was screaming from pain. I quickly got up to get out of the way of the incoming adults. Sakura had started to heal it so I guess that it was either broken or fractured.

Once done the concerned mom asked, "What happened?"

Trying to hold back sobs Sen exclaimed, "Me and Senatae were trying to see who was the better fighter, and I slammed my wrist on the dresser. It was my fault mommy."

"No, Aunt Sakura, it is my fault, if I hadn't flipped over like I did you wouldn't have fractured your wrist," I said trying to have the blame put on me.

"How about both you guys are in trouble. There, discussion over. Now, both of you need to get to bed. Se-" Sasuke was cut off by the squeals of Sen.

"Oh yeah!!!!! Daddy, can Senatae stay the night. Please? Please, please, please, please, ple-" It was her turn to get cut off. Sasuke had his hand over her mouth, so all that was coming out now was, "Mms, mms, mms, mms, mms, mmm, mmms???"

"Yes she can stay the night!" Sasuke shouted obviously a little irritated.

"I fact," my dad started, "she can stay for a long time. Senatae, I have very important business to attend to. This time, it's stuff you can't come too."

"But! I came with you to catch the Nibi! What's so important about this thing that I can't see?"

"It's just some business. No more arguing. I have to go Senatae. Good-bye."

When we hugged good-bye and he was about to leave, my dad turned around, and in a very annoyed look on his face he says, "By the way, can I have my sword back?"

I had forgotten it and got a look that has, "I don't know what you talking about," written all over it. "Sure I was gong to give it back when we got to the base, but since I am not going back I guess I have to give it to you now." I then hand it over and I wave to my dad one last time. I start to sniffle but as soon as I see Sen looking at me I stopped, I don't show my emotions a lot, or I use a different emotion to trick people.

After we make a bed for me to sleep on I could not stop thinking of what on earth made my dad leave me here. When I did fall asleep though I had the nightmare that has been haunting me ever since that day happened. One that I wish would forget.
