Chapter Eleven

She stood there as a range of emotions ran throughout her body, first shock, then jealously, then sadness, rage, betrayal, until finally all she felt was tiredness. She was tired of playing these games, tired of waiting around for Sasuke, but most of all she was tired of paying the price for something her ancestors did hundreds of years ago.

Pushing her chair back in under the table she looked at itachi as he sat across from her his eyes locked on his brother, a smouldering rage of darkness lying beneath them.

"This was lovely itachi, but I am just tired, I think I will go home now if that is alright." She said surprised at her steady her voice sounded.

Pulling his attention away from Sasuke itachi looked at her "yes I understand" then standing up he place a few large bills on the table and walked her towards the entrance.

They moved around a few tables heading for the door when sakura realised that the only way to get out way to pass by Sasuke himself, who was still stilling there talking to Ino, as if nothing had happened, and well she supposed nothing really had happened, had it? Sasuke had never pledged his undying love for her, or anything like that. This was all her fault for making this bigger in her mind than it really was, Sasuke was a famous movie star, he didn't need her, he had millions upon millions of girls to fawn all over him, this probably didn't even register on his radar.

Keeping her eyes forward she walked straight past the two of them as if they were even there. When she was finally outside she found herself expelling a deep breath which she hadn't realised she'd been holding in.

"Are you going to be alright?" itachi asked kindly as they stood in the dull light of the fading sun.

She thought about his question long and hard before answering, "Yes I am going to be fine" and surprisingly she meant it, she would get through this and she was beginning to form a small idea to help her.

Itachi looked her over worryingly "do you want me to walk you back to the hotel?"

"That's alright I think I can managed that" she laughed genuinely "I think a little time to myself in the lovely warm air will do me some good"

Itachi watched her walk away after they said good bye, his barely contained rage finally boiling over to the surface. Turning around he stormed back into the restaurant, his eyes searching for that no good brother of his, until he finally found him seated at a table with the movie star Ino. A quiet calm fell over him as he approached the table

Spotting his brother Sasuke stood up from his seat "hello itachi"

"Hello" itachi responded deadly quiet. He watched his little brother as he moved to introduce the woman at his table, but itachi didn't care, right now there was only one thing that he wanted to do.

"I'm sorry miss but would you mind standing up and moving out of the way?" he asked politely.

Ino looked like she wanted to object but one look at Itachi's face and she quickly grabbed her purse and stood up.

"Itachi what do you think your doi…?"

SMACK

Sasuke didn't get to finish his question before the hard knuckles of his brothers fist collided with his nose and cheek bones.

Itachi centred his stance and aimed for his pretty brother's nose. Sasuke felt the punch connected and before he knew it he was being force back into the table behind him by him brother's fist. Resting against it he felt the sharp pain as the blood vessels in his nose popped and began to run down and over his lip. He could taste the metallic liquid as it reached his tongue. What was going on? Why was itachi hitting him? It should be the other way around, shouldn't it? After all itachi was clearly here on a date with sakura, how did this all fit into his brother master plan?

"Are you done hitting me?" he asked as anger and the need to fight back surged through him.

Ino rushed in with a bunch of napkin in her hand, giving them to him to stem the flow of blood.

Itachi looked at his pathetic little brother "did you enjoy your little stunt, I hope your happy because it worked, you succeeded in hurting her, just like you wanted."

"What are you talking about? You were the one here on a date with her I saw you kissing as I walked in" Sasuke retaliated, hating that he sounded like a ten your old boy.

"You are so childish, you don't deserve someone like sakura, I thought that I could make this work but I can't, you are still the spoilt little brat you always were, only thinking of yourself." Said itachi as he looked down at his brother sprawled across the dinner table.

"what are you talking about this plan of your was all your idea, you are the one that is so obsessed with this, I don't understand why you would be so upset that I hurt a haruno isn't that what you want?" Sasuke said finally standing up the blood soaked tissues in his hands.

Itachi couldn't believe what he was hearing "don't you get it! The haruno's are not our enemies, we are! sakura's father didn't kill Rebecca, not in revenge and not from spite, in fact he hand nothing to do with it, the person that killed her was our own flesh and blood, the man you admire so much. Our own father had her killed so as not to bring dishonour on our family, are you aware that it wasn't even your child. This woman that you have mourned for all these year was lying to you, and you ran straight into our fathers lies when he told you the it was the haruno's responsible."

"You are a liar!" Sasuke yelled, angry now.

"Am i? Why do you think I left, I couldn't stand to have such blood on my hands, and do you know who took me in when I realised that nothing in my world was right, it was that girl you just shamelessly hurt, and her father, even though I was the enemy! I thought that you had grown up since leaving father and following your own dreams but I was wrong, that girl loves you enough to forget the fact that you hate her and was trying to make you see the love in your life but you just threw it in her face, I thought that we could put this bitter feud behind us and end it with this generation, but you, you turn out to be move of a disappointment than father."

Then turning on his heal itachi left a gapping Sasuke and exited the restaurant.

Finally back in her hotel room sakura ran the bath filling it with salts and bubble till they almost fell over the side and onto the ground. All the way back she had been concocting a plan, nothing great and nothing to dramatic, but enough to get back at Sasuke for the way he had treated her, no longer was she going to take this lying down, if he wanted to war with her that that was what he would get, but she was going to make damn sure that she won!

Slipping into the hot water she grabbed her pencil and note book and began to write, she wrote like nothing she had done before, this was not a storyline that she had dared to attempt because of its difficulty, but tonight she was inspired, but she had to get it right her plan wouldn't work if Jiraiyarejected it.

And so she worked all night until the bubbles were gone and the water was ice cold, revenge would be hers and it would be sweet as hell.

A couple of days later when the set was rebuilt and they were all getting back on schedule, Jiraiyacame up and gave her a great smile. "I can't believe you wrote this, it is genius, when did you come up with the idea, women across the world are going to love this movie even more now that it has this wonderful twist."

Sakura smile evilly, when she had shown Jiraiya the script his eyes had almost bugged out of her head, "this is just what the movie needs to make it work, and I never even thought about doing this" he'd said quiet pleased. Then they had spent the next few day closed in their rooms working out the fine details and revised scripts for everyone.

She didn't know if Sasuke had seen the new script yet, but she didn't care everyone she seemed to speak to just loved what she had done, even Ino had come up to her yesterday, and carefully not mentioning the other night, she had then proceeded to tell her home tragically romantic she thought the movie was going to be now. Sakura had been quiet pleased with this, after all Ino was pretty much the only person that, if she had objected, would have been able to stop her plan, but seeing as she loved it, it was all a go ahead.

"What the hell is this? Who wrote this script! I demand to know what is going on!" sakura heard a pompous male voice, which could only belong to one person, yell.

Looks like Sasuke had finally seen the new script.

"I can't do this, do you know what this will do to my reputation. I will be type cast for the rest on my life!"

"Calm down Sasuke" she heard Jiraiya say, from the set "this is just what the movie needs, it wasn't working the other way, you and the script didn't match."

"Who wrote this?"

Turning around from her desk sakura walked over to the set, may as well confess she wanted to savour this moment forever. "I did"

This stopped Sasuke as he looked up to see who had spoken, did he have a black eye?

"Why would you change my character so dramatically?" he asked sobering his anger slightly.

"I did it because I think that you will suite this role very well, especially with that black eye you now have" how did he get that? She wondered. "However if you think that you can't do it, you are more than free to leave, and we will replace you." She smiled at this last bit, now he only had to options, leave the movie and lose face or complete the role and be type cast for the rest of his life.

Realising the trap she had set for him Sasuke stood straight as he thought about his options "fine I will do it, I think it will be nice to have a change of scene, pardon the pun" he laughed to himself. "I am sick of these fan girls following me everywhere anyway. Ok let's get on with it" he ordered than gave sakura a winning glance as he turned back to his trailer for makeup.

He had called her bluff and won the battle, but this war was just beginning, she thought smiling, by the time she was through with him the only thing Sasuke would be known as, would be as the greatest villain of all, no longer would he be the knight in shining armour, she was going to make the whole world see him for what he really was, the biggest scoundrel of them all.
