Chapter 6

(Your P.O.V.)

You were talking to Sakura and Hinata when you felt someone tapping your shoulder. You turn around and saw a guy standing there. He said, "Hello. My name is Moru, and I was hoping that I could have the honor by dancing with a beautiful girl like yourself."

You blush and say, "Ah, okay."

You and Moru walked on to the dance floor, and Moru asked you, "May I ask what the beautiful maiden's name is?"

You say, "My name is Evany."

Moru says, " That's a wonderful name for you."

That made you blush even more. You ask, "Why would a gentleman like yourself be interested in a girl like me?"

Moru said, "Because to me, you seem different more mysterious than the others. Plus, you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. If you knew me, you would know that I travel a lot. Sadly, it gets lonely without a female companion to keep things interesting." He quickly added, "When I say interesting, I mean a good conversation."

You giggle and say, "Nice catch."

Moru says, "Thank you. You are a wonderful dancer. You should be dancing up on the stage for all to see."

You blush and said, "Oh, no. I'm not that good."

Moru says, "You are being too modest. You know what if I didn't know better, I could have sworn that you were on a dance team or something."

You were just about to walk away from Moru when he says, "I'm sorry if I went to far. I just wanted to get to know you a little better."

You say, "That's okay, but you know a little too much about me. Why is that?"

Moru says, "I can not tell you that, but I can tell you that you shouldn't hide what you love to do."

You look away from Moru as he continued to say, "You shouldn't be afraid of hiding something from people that makes you the most happy."

You were about to say something to Moru when Jessica says, "Will Evany please come on to the stage. I repeat, Evany please come on to the stage."

You stood there for a bit when Moru said, "Go on. You'll do just fine." While he gave you a gentle push towards the stage.

You slowly made your way up to the stage and went by Becka, Tina, and Jessica. Tina says, "I told you, she would come back up here one of these days."

You smiled and asked, "What song are we dancing to and when is it going to play. Because If it doesn't star soon, I'm going to loss all of my courage."

Jessica says, "It will start in about one minute."

You asked, "What is the song?"

Suddenly, the song started to play. It was called 'Panic! In the Disco'. You girls started to do a lot of flips, spins, and jumps. When the song ended you girls froze in place for a little bit then bowed to the applauding crowd. You looked around the crowd trying to find Moru. When all of a sudden, the ceiling came down followed by some attacking ninjas. For some reason, Sasuke appeared by Jessica's side, Gaara appeared by Becka's side, and Kiba and Akamaru appeared by Tina's side. You thought *Those guys will make a perfect couples. If only they knew it.* So, you were fighting by yourself when suddenly a kunai came flying at your back while you were defending yourself. Jessica yells in a scared voice, "Evany look out!!!!!"

Before you could turn around, someone caught it. The person whispered, "Don't worry, no one is going to hurt you when I'm around."

You asked, "What brings you here, Itachi."

Itachi says, "To get my prize."

You asked, "Oh, what would that be?"

Itachi wrapped one arm around our waist and pulled you up against his chest. Then he says while whispering it in your ear, "You are my prize for convincing you to dance on the stage with your friends."

Your eyes go wide then you start to struggle to get away from Itachi. Your thoughts * I can't let him take me away or else he might find out my secret (which is that you really really like him, but he doesn't know that to your knowledge).* Itachi says while still whispering into your ear, "Don't worry, I won't be taking you with me today but sooner or later you will be coming with me."

With that said, he pulled you into the shadows, kissed your neck, and then he was gone. You stepped out of the shadows and took down two ninjas. The rest of the ninjas retreated. Naruto asked, "Why did they attack us when they knew we would kick their butts???"

You didn't tell any one about your run in with Itachi. You thought *I'll tell them tomorrow when Becka gets back from spending the night with Temari.* Kankuro came up to you and asked, "Are you alright?"

You said, "Yeah, why do you ask?"

Kankuro said, "Because I saw some guy wrapping his arm around you. After a while, he pulled you into the shadows for a bit. Then you came out, but the guy didn't."

Sasuke looked up and asked, "What did the guy look like?"

You said, "It was your brother."

Sasuke asks, 'What did Itachi want Evany?"

You say, "Nothing right now, but he plans on getting it eventually."

Sasuke asks, "What does he plan on getting eventually?"

You blush a little and point at yourself. Sakura asked, "What would Itachi want with you, Evany?"

You say, "I don't know, but he said something about encouraging me so I would dance on stage and also said I was his prize for doing it!?!?" Your voice slowly got a little louder and more annoyed.

Tina says, "I told Moru that if he danced with you and encouraged you to dance on stage that his prize would be whatever he wanted."

You thoughts *That could explain why I felt the same way around Moru, as I do around Itachi.* You say out loud, "Well that explains somethings as to why Moru...Itachi knew about my love to dance."

Sasuke says, "That can't be just it. Evany did Itachi say or do anything else?"

You say, "I don't want to talk about it here for all to hear. How about Sasuke's group, Kiba's group, Gaara's group, and my group go some where more private." After while of walking, you added, "The reason I asked for your group to join us Gaara is because Becka feels comfortable around you, and she trusts your team. Don't complain Sasuke just be thankful that these guys are on our side."

Sauke stayed quiet. Once you guys got to Jessica, Becka, Tina, and your living room, you told everyone what happened to you from the dance with Itachi and the fight. Naruto says, "We know what happens during the fight but what happened in the shadows?" Everyone said yeah in agreement with Naruto.

You blushed and said, "That's a little personal for you guys to know."

Tina says, "Come on, there is now way something to personal could have happened in the shadows that you can't tell us?" You say, "Okay. He kissed me on the neck. Happy now?" while blushing like mad.
Everyone except Gaara and Shino yelled, "What!?!?" Akamaru just barked really loudly.

Tina says, "Okay, that is a little too personal."

Sasuke says, "The only reason he would do that is if he is going to use you."

Jessica says, "Or that he is actually falling in love with her."

Sasuke says, "There is no way, Itachi doesn't have a heart. He killed our clan."

Becka says, "Well if Itachi uses my sister, I'll kill him."

Tina and Jessica said together, "So shall we."

Jessica went on to say, "No one will ever hurt our Flower."

Tina asked, "Where are the senses? I haven't seen one since we arrived."

Sakura says, "Don't worry they're around here some where. They are testing us to see how well we can take care of ourselves. They will only come out when there is a too big of a problem that we need help on."

Tina says, "Oh, but what about the guests? Are we being tested too?"

Sakura says, "A little bit, but you , Becka, Jessica, and Evany are being tested just like us because you girls were asked to join the tournament but turned it down. If I read the scrolls right that is the first time any on turned down the tournament."

Jessica says, "I told you, Evany, that even you could make it into a scroll of some kind of history. Now, all you have to do is make it into the scroll of peace making and you'll be golden for life."

You blushed. After talking with everyone for a while longer, you said, "I'm going to bed."

Jessica says, "I'm sleeping in your room to make sure Itachi doesn't try to take you while you are sleeping."

You smile at Jessica and say, "Okay."

You heard Sasuke mumble, "And she thinks I'm gay."
Suddenly Sauske gets hit in the back of his head with Mr. Tree by Jessica. She says, "It's called concern for a friend. Who I might add is the person your brother is after. By the way, if someone you care about is in danger, you actually become stronger in order to save them. I have proved that when we were little."

Jessica got up and you two went in to your room to go to bed. You asked Jessica in sign language, "Why do you have a crush on him still?"

She hand signalled back, "One he is cute, two he's a good fighter, three he can be nice when he wants to be, and four he is really fun to mess around with.

You and Jessica burst into laughter.
