TADA ANOTHER RAPID FIRE UPDATE! I'M FEELING GOOD. THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS! THE TASTE OF HEAVEN HAS BEEN IMAGINED.

Now I have two serious questions for all of you. I need all of you to pick in a review. It pertains to the story.

Black OR Green?

and also

Red or Black?

Until I have enough to determine which ones are the choice of you readers, my fic here will be stuck. These are two separate questions. So two different selections. You MAY pick black and black. Just state it clearly for me. This is very important.

That is the end of my announcement. Thank you. Please enjoy this chapter.


Rei flew over the rooftops desperately, lungs heaving for oxygen as she laughed and ran at the same time. Most villagers had probably realized that she had returned, as she was the only one who was stupidly brave enough to piss off not just an Uchiha, but Uchiha Itachi. She let out a laughing scream as she caught sight of Itachi a few meters behind her.

Oh, he was livid. He was using his Sharingan this time.

"REI!"

She nearly keeled over, the tears of mirth and fear spilling down her cheeks half blinding her.

"Oh god! It hurts to breathe!"

Her slight stumble had allowed Itachi to catch up with her and in seconds she was captured by the back of her shirt, dangling like a kitten held by its scruff on one of the many roofs.

Rei squeaked breathlessly, scrabbling at Itachi's shirt to cease her dangling. Cursed height advantage!

"'Tachi! Hurry! Shi! The food! My clone can't! The dango~!"

She could feel his chest heaving under his shirt, remembering that he had been running twice the amount she had and was probably far more tired. Quickly, she forced her clone to summon them there instead.


The pair puffed into existence on the roof of the Hokage Tower, effectively beating Shisui there by only a moment.

"Oh. You caught her this time."

Itachi let her go, dropping her the two inch distance between the bottom of her feet and the floor. Rei crumpled in surprise, ending up on her knees as she gasped for air and tried to cool her flushed cheeks.

Itachi's irritated voice addressed her.

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't call your fanboys."

Rei sat there rather confused.

"I have fanboys?"

Itachi's irritation grew exponentially with that question. The Uchiha Ninja Glare once again fired up and at half power.

Step three. Bribe with food.

"I got you guys food! I got food! And dango! Lots of it!"

Rei flapped her arms in the general direction of where she had set up their picnic, hidden away on the roof top garden that overlooked the Academy.

Obsidian eyes narrowed at her, intensifying the Uchiha Ninja Glare a good 10% as Shisui darted towards the food to confirm.

"HOLY SHIT! SHE GOT THE GOOD STUFF TOO! It's the kind from those specialty shops by the capital!"

Itachi closed his eyes, shutting off his Uchiha Ninja Glare. Exhaling his rage with a sigh as he turned to walk towards Shisui.

"Yes, you have fanboys."

Rei's scrunched her nose in mild disgust before refocusing to peer at him expectantly.

"Am I..?"

"Yes, you are also forgiven."

A grin decorated her face as she got up, trailing after Itachi towards the food.

And that ladies, is the way to pacify an angry Uchiha.


The two Uchiha sat down on the picnic blanket, relishing the cool sensation that seeped into their muscles. Itachi brought out Mikoto's lunch boxes, knowing that more food was always welcome with these two. Shisui lay back with a tired groan, popping his back before settling there.

"I don't even want to think about the paper work piling up on our desks right now. Stupid mission reports."

Itachi replied with an equally tired groan of his own.

"Don't remind me. We have to show up and get it later today."

Rei sprawled out on the picnic bench besides the blanket, grinning.

"Well I'll have you know, that paperwork is some else's job for a while."

Itachi and Shisui's eyebrows quirked in confusion.

"I put in a request for both your company. You guys are currently on a week long B-rank vacation and no paperwork is required at the end of it."

"You are paying for us to relax?"

"Nope. I called in a few favors. I know you two made ANBU a few months ago and haven't had a break since."

"But a B-rank?"

"I'm awesome, what can I say? And now, we are protecting Sasuke from the little monsters trying to eat him alive."


Sasuke walked out into the yard, following the stream of running children. He held his lunch box as he trotted to the spot he knew none of the other kids would bother him at.

Little did he know, some one had found his spot.

"OI SASUKE TEME!"

Sasuke was a good child, a tad annoying to his older brother now and then, but a good child none the less. However, when it came to this blonde boy wonder, Sasuke felt like he just needed to smack him. Like Itachi did to Shisui the night before.

"What do you want, you idiot?"

Sasuke used his own Uchiha Ninja glare, not quite powerful enough to rival any of the others in his clan, but powerful enough to prove he had it in him.

Naruto, the oblivious blonde, shot him a confident lopsided grin.

"Bet I can beat 'cha at shuriken jutsu!"

A series of female shrieks rose from the bushes surrounding his spot.

"NARUTO! STOP DISTURBING SASUKE-KUN WHILE HE EATS HIS FOOD!"

A short moment later, Sasuke was watching the majority of the females in his class flood out of the bushes to beat the blonde.

What weird girls. Do they like bushes that much?

He shrugged and walked off, leaving the fray that had started.


"You know, I think Itachi zapped all the genius out of Mikoto-san's genes. Sasuke's pretty freaking thick-headed to not realize those things were watching him eat."

"I did not 'zap all the genius' out of my mother's genetics, thank you very much."

"Naw, I agree with Rei on this one. You must have taken up all the genius, your brother is a Class A Uchiha moron. His level of awareness is so low it actually hurts me."

"My brother is not a moron. He's foolish. ...And slightly unaware."

"'Slightly' my ass, Itachi. He wouldn't know it was Shisui if I flung him at his head."

"You are not flinging me anywhere!"

"You are not flinging anything at Sasuke."

"Well thanks for caring so much about me, Itachi!"

"I wasn't."

"...Sarcasm is wasted on you. I am ashamed to call you 'cousin' let alone 'best friend'."

Tuning them out, Rei watched the children intently as the two muttered behind her, literally getting in each other's faces. She watched as another blonde began following the tiny Uchiha.

No.

"Guys. Shut up."

"You're the one who talks like you're some sort of ancient fogie!"

"I don't know how you're the older one when you act like a child!"

"Guys-"

"You're a brat, you know that?"

"Says the one who acts like a brat!"

"Guys."

The blonde girl was making passes at the mini Uchiha at this point. Chatting and scooting closer.

"You were better as a toddler! You were cute then!"

"You're just upset that you can't beat me in any of our arguments!"

"I am going to take drastic measures if you two don't quit-!"

"Is that what you think?! And I have beat you in several arguments!"

Rei's eyebrow twitched in rage. Uchiha men must be idiots in general. Stupid hot, hot-blooded Uchiha!

"You have not!"

"I have to-!"

She took hold of the back of their heads and closed the 5 inch gap between them. Effectively shutting the duo up as well as chilling them right down to the bone.

"I told you I was going to take drastic measures."


Yes you all know what's coming don't you?

Don't worry it's all good. But remember the note I put at the top.

I do need you to help me decide as it does pertain to the story very very much.

BLACK OR GREEN and RED OR BLACK.

Two answers, double 'black' is fine, just make sure I can tell.

I couldn't decided a few important details for the next part of my fic and I've decided to turn to you readers.

Reviews are very much necessary for the continuation of these next chapters and story.

I'm counting on you!

With much sincerity and thankfulness,

Silent-Himitsu.
