Four years
chapter 11
Heya! Another chapter!
Chapter 11: the beginning of the end
I walked Itachi through the steps of our plan. He seemed happy to hear of it. But, I was worried.
-A year later-
The three of us were surrounded by Anbu. I bit my lip and charged towards the Anbu, not caring that Dee was already reciting his word to exploded his art. I felt my body become light, as a bomb exploded under me.
"Damn, should have know where he had them." I thought, my mind elsewhere. I heard someone yell my name, I didn't care. It was over. Ha! I was finally free of the damn akatsuki and all of their crap. I no longer had to kill people who i didn't want to kill. I was going to be far away from all of the blood and pain.
When the bodies was tallied, I added Kia's name to the list. She was dead. I couldn't find Itachi anywhere. Even his Chakra presence had disappeared. I dimly wondered if he would be alright.
I walked into the base and collapsed onto the couch. Pein walked in and gave me a questinly look.
"She's dead." I said, my voice barley above a whisper. Pein looked shocked. Or something to that extent.
"What about Itachi?"
I hesitated before answering, "He just up and went after the fight, un. Even his chakra presence had disappeared..."
"He left." stated Pein, after a long silence. "We will find him, and he will be killed."
I nodded, and went to my room. I didn't leave it for another two weeks. Konan had to come in to give me food.
-Konoha-
I walked towards the gates to Konoha. I had long since discarded my coat and headband. I never planed to return to the Akatsuki again.
"Itachi?" asked someone from the gate. I turned, seeing Sasuke. I nodded and passed him.
"Where is the Hokage?"
-Tsunade's office-
It was so weird, seeing Itachi just sit in my office, with no headband, or cloak.
"Why have you come here?"
"To clear things up. First of all. I never killed any of the Uchiha's, Madara did." He said, his face unreadable.
I looked at Itachi, wondering why in hell's name, I let him in here. And didn't call for his death. oh yea, he promised words about the Akatsuki...
"What do you mean?"
"I was at Kisame's house when they were killed. When I returned home, there was blood everywhere. And Madara stood in the main room, laughing. After he left, I searched the whole compound for any survivors. There were two. Sasuke and some servant. I do not know anything about the servant child but, she had been running towards a cart as it passed the gates. I felt no reason to let her not go. She was running away from something worse than death. I was there alone when the Anbu came. Making a split decision, I went to the Akatsuki. Years later, here I am now." He said. i tried to find to find some sort of lie in his voice. But, he had hesitated after saying akatsuki. Like he was remembering something painful.
"And...that is all i have to say in my defense." Itachi was quiet after that.
I shook my head and sighed. "You are lucky that i can tell when a person is telling the truth. Or you would most likely be with Ibiki right now..."
