Rise Above Part III

Itachi and Hinata had their hearts set on a simple menu and they both had butterflies as the agent opened the kitchen up for them to prep their dishes. They were provided with six sou chefs and eight servers. The accommodations couldn't have come at a better time. However there was turmoil elsewhere.

Hanabi cried loudly in her father's arms. She had stopped running on one of the busy streets not far from the college in downtown and Hiashi sat to console her.
"Fa-father, I-I just don't know wha-wha to say."
She continued to sob and Hiashi felt his pocket vibrate. Neji had called from the car and rolled around to pick them up.
"Look Hanabi. We need to meet with all involved before the cops and get this story straight. You and Hinata are in deep trouble so you have to tell us the complete and total truth. I am your cousin and your council so please don't discredit me." Neji was stern and serious, as Hanabi sniffled.
"Now tell us everything from the beginning." Demanded Hiashi.
So she did.

Mikoto could not stop hugging and kissing Sasuke who blushed out of affection for his mother.
"Oh, you rascal. I've been worried sick and I could throw you over my knee and spank you."
"I'm sorry mom. But it's been nuts over here and well look, I have to tell you something and then I got to meet with someone that's important and..."
"I will not hear of you going anywhere else without Kakashi. I've spent too long searching for you and Itachi and I'm not going to let you out of my sight. You realize your father is here in Virginia also. So we all must tread carefully." Her expression was urgent and he knew it.

Mikoto told Sasuke that she was taken off of a lot of the property and the banks had emptied accounts that were joint for her and Fugaku. With Kakashi's help she secured bonds in Switzerland so in case of total bankruptcy she would have something left in her name.
"That's nuts! Dad is getting worst. We have to put a stop to his recklessness." Sasuke's eyes burned with compassion for the survival of his families wealth.

"Spoken like a true leader. Seems like you've done some growing up here."
"Mom...you don't know the half of it, but I'll let Itachi explain that to you. In the meantime, I really have to meet someone, but I promise I will come right back to your room."
"Alright. Don't make me track you down in the lobby." She pinched his cheek and he blushed from the act.
"Okay, okay, be right back."

"Hello?"
"Yes, your car will be ready soon sir. Would you like us to contact the misses?"
"No, not yet. I'll find her soon enough. I need to find out why my son is in a photo being man-handled in a street by a wench. And I also need to know have you closed those accounts with Sasuke's name?"
"Yes, sir it goes into effect on Monday."
"Good. That little shit has sucked the last penny out of me. If he won't let me know what his business affairs are and where he stashes his cash, then I'll take back what is mine and he can live off of the left overs. Itachi will pay grandly for the discord he has caused. All of my firms are closed in Russia and my subsidiaries in the islands are recording lows of devastating proportions." Fugaku watched the information on his tablet with his stocks and bonds and watched them slump even lower. He was loosing money faster than a leak in a hose and his mind became engulfed with rage, while his reasoning sought only to blame those he felt betrayed his trust.

"Sir, Danzo is on the phone."
"What?"
"That's rather rude of you, but I have information of the whereabouts of your sons."
"Never mind you second rate pansy! I've found my own sons and I don't need you anymore."
"Well pay me and we will never work together again."
"The fact I found them nullifies our deal. You can pay yourself with good advice from me to find better sources."
Hanging up the phone Fugaku was served his meal of lobster and steak while Danzo sizzled.

So, you think you're going to get over on me, do you? You will pay me, my money or else.

Scrolling through his phone he found his number one agent and made a call for vengeance.

Kiba and Sasuke discussed what happened outside.

"Look this feels bad. I mean, this is really, really, bad."
"What do you want to do, Sasuke?"
"We have to tell Itachi and Hinata."

They called on the phone and finally Itachi picked up.

"Yes?"
"Itachi! Man, you have got to get outta the house fast there's cops everywhere and..."
"Sasuke calm down. Look, I can't talk, but me and Hinata are at the Scope. Just come to the garage and we can talk then. We're setting up for LMFAO and Hot Blossom, so I need to finish working okay? See you soon."
Itachi hung up and continued working on the vegetables for his miniature egg rolls.

"Hey, they're at the Scope, Kiba. That's like up the street from here."
"Yeah, so."
"Look I need to find a way to sneak pass my mom and get over there, bring Itachi to see her and work out our family crap."
"Okay, so what do you want me to do?"
Sasuke looked at him and chuckled.
"Take a bath."

Author's Note: I know they maybe sloppy, but I assure you I want to get to this before I have to go to bed. Thanks for your patience and again this stuff is all up in my head. so sorry if it comes out strange. Love all you!
