Recap( Because if I need it, I'm guessing you do to):
After five minutes, which went by too quickly for Sakura, they were in one of the Uchiha's private training grounds. Itachi walked to one of the few trees around the grounds and placed Sakura underneath its shade.
"Stay here, don't leave okay?" Itachi said.
"Okay I promise."
"Good, I'm just going to throw some kunai at the target's over there, they won't come your way." He walked towards the target's and stopped twenty feet from them he then whipped ten kunai out and started running around the targets while throwing the kunai one by one.
"Wow Itachi they all hit the red middle circle even though you were running!"
Yawn, so boring.
Inner you wanted to watch so shush!
"Sakura watch this," Itachi called out. He made a few signs, smoke appeared and when it cleared there were two Itachi's instead of just one.
"Wow," Sakura said eyes shining with excitement.
Itachi chuckled then prepared to fight himself, Sakura ahing and cheering. He kicked, punched, dodged, and blasted fire; always making sure he didn't get too close to Sakura nor too far away that she couldn't see.
After thirty minutes a tall man walked into the training grounds. His face was an emotionless mask and his eyes were blank. "Itachi, training I see," his deep voice carried throughout the training grounds.
-End Recap
"Danzo-sama," Itachi said. "May I help you with something?"
He doesn't sound happy, Inner.
He can sound happy? And who would be happy to see this so called 'Danzo' the guy looks like a walking corpse. Seriously Saku, either he just came out of the hospital or he has a thing for bandages.
"I heard you laid off missions in order to babysit a brat, is this true?"
Brat?! Let me at him Saku!
Inner, calm down! Sakura exclaimed holding Inner's hands back.
Itachi kept his gaze on Danzo while walking towards Sakura, "With all respect Danzo-sama Sakura is no brat she smart for her age and I'm not her babysitter; I'm her guardian."
You best believe he is! Inner screamed while punching the air.
At this point Itachi was in front of Sakura blocking Danzo's gaze on Sakura, "Now if you excuse us we must return to Sakura's house and I hope I don't have to remind you that you are trespassing Uchiha territory, " Danzo's eyes narrowed in anger at being dismissed so easily. "Come Sakura," Sakura's head tilted to the side in acknowledgment of Itachi's whisper, "Hop on my back."
After she was secured to Itachi's back he started to jump from rooftop to rooftop, not stopping until he was a mile away from the compound.
"I'm sorry you had to see that man Sakura," Itachi apologized.
"It's okay, I'm just glad we're away from him; he gives me the creeps."
You could see the devil behind him.
"Try to avoid him as much as possible Sakura."
Sakura I think someone's watching us.
We're way up high in the air Inner, Sakura commented while mentally pointing towards the sky…or her minds roof…? Beside's how can you tell if someone's watching us?
Well see how the walls are white and blank? Inner asked Sakura while pointing to the walls.
Yeah Sakura replied twirling in her spot.
Well when someone stares at us a spot on a wall turns to pink.
Like that, Sakura asked pointing to a wall at the back of her.
Yup, like that.
Why didn't you tell me before, Sakura demanded hands on her hips glaring at Inner.
I didn't think it would matter but, Inner glanced at the pink spot, this person has been directing their gaze from us to Itachi.
How can you tell?
The wall behind us is your back, the one to our right is your right side, the one in front of us is your hideous face and front, and the one to our left is your left. The walls from top to bottom have a specific location on the outside. The top of the walls signify our hair.
Does that explain why the spot is pink?
Yes, however I've noticed that the spots only appear if someone stares at us not looks.
The difference being that a stare holds more intensity compared to someone looking at us.
Yup.
So what do we do?
Nothing really I just wanted you to know.
Is there anything else I should know?
Can't remember anything else so I guess that's all for now.
"Sakura?" Itachi's voice cut through the girl's conversation.
"Huh?"
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, where are- what are we doing at the Hokage's Tower?"
"The Hokage summoned me to his office," he replied. "Can you sit still while I talk with him?"
"I will make no such promise," Sakura exclaimed.
If the heir of the Uchiha clan was allowed to sigh and shake his head he would have. Itachi lowered Sakura to the ground then took her hand in his and started his walk to the hokage's office. When he was in front of the door he knocked three times and entered when he heard the man's voice allowing him access.
Inside the Hokage was standing in front of the big window. Itachi bowed but Sakura wouldn't have any of that. She shot towards the Hokage and hugged him around the legs.
"Oh thank you so much Hokage-sama," Sakura screamed.
"Sakura," Itachi said, "I'm sure you bow down first."
"Haha, it's okay Itachi-san," the Hokage said bending down to pick Sakura up. "How's your babysitter treating you," he asked Sakura.
"Horrible Hokage-sama, he doesn't give me ice-cream for breakfast," she exclaimed throwing her hands in the air, eyes wide in disbelief.
The Hokage turned to Itachi, eyebrow raised in question. Itachi, however didn't pay attention to his leader he was too busy staring at Sakura in confusion, though his face didn't show it.
All of a sudden Sakura burst out laughing. "Just kidding Hokage-sama, he's been pretty good."
The Hokage chuckled, "Well that's good to hear. Itachi I have a mission for you."
Itachi's face whipped towards him, his face emotionless as always.
"A mission," Itachi asked.
"Yes," the Hokage confirmed.
"Hokage-sama what about Sakura?"
"Yes, well I chose a mission that would allow Sakura to accompany you. It's a simple scroll delivering mission."
"How far is it?"
"It's a small village about six hours from here…"
I'm going on a mission?
No, you're accompanying Itachi on a mission.
Isn't it the same thing?
No
Still, its weird.
Are you kidding me? It's gonna be awesome.
"Sakura, say bye we have to go now," Itachi said.
"Kay-kay. Bye Hokage-sama~!"
"Bye Sakura-chan," the Hokage responded with a chuckle.
They both bowed and left the office. Once they were outside Itachi made a clone that took Sakura home; Itachi went home to pack his clothes.
~At Sakura's house~
Hey Inner how am I supposed to carry all of this?
Maybe Itachi will carry it? Or his evil clone.
His clone isn't evil. Should I take the blue tank top or the orange t-shirt?
His clone isn't evil yet! I don't care what shirt you take…actually take the tank top; orange does not look good on me. Inner commented standing in front of a mirror with an orange shirt on.
Yeah your right. Okay should I take flats or those blue sandals mom bought me in Suna?
Why not both? And the sandals are called 'Ninja Sandals'.
Are they?
Yes.
Well I don't know.
So when are we going to finish the tree?
By the end of the month.
Want some pancakes?
No, I want a lollipop.
Pancakes are way better than lollipops.
That's not true anyone will choose lollipops over pancakes any day.
I'm sure you're only saying that because you're fat.
I'm not fat! And what does that have to do with anything?
Its got to do with everything.
You're annoying.
Sugar
Sugar?
Cream
Cream…what are you saying?
Soccer ball.
This isn't a sport Inner.
What's not a sport?
This.
What's this?
This!
This?
What do you think this is?
A conversation?
Ugh! I give up!
Were we playing a game?
And people say I'm dumb.
You are
Are you like my personal bully?
Yes I am; bow down to me Sakura!
As if, freak.
I'm not the freak you are; you're the one with a huge forehead and abnormal hair color.
Shut up Inner!
….I'm hungry.
Well then eat.
Feed me Sakura
No feed yourself.
Fine make me some food.
You can cook.
I'll just tell Itachi.
All of a sudden a replica of Itachi wearing a butler's suit appeared in a corner of Sakura's mind, in front of him was a stove.
Itachi make me some pancakes.
'Yes malady,' he responded.
Malady? There's nothing lady-like about you.
Offensive, you're a bully Saku. Inner said while fake crying.
Ha! As if! I wonder if we'll ever get to see that boy again, he was cute, Sakura said, a blush adorning her cheeks.
I don't see what you see 'cause his chicken butt hair was hideous. Seriously, either his hairstyle is from fifty years ago or his fashion sense is horrible. Inner said shaking her head.
Don't insult him Inner he was nice, Sakura scolded. He gave us candy that was supposed to be for someone else.
So? I could get candy for the twins and give to Itachi instead.
'Here you go malady.' Itachi replica said while setting a plate of pancakes in front of Inner.
Why thank you Itachi, now give me a back massage.
'Yes malady.'
Really?
Hey Saku these pancakes are good and boy does Itachi know how to give massages. Hey 'Tachi lower back!
'Yes malady.'
Why me, Sakura asked herself.
"Sakura," the real Itachi's clone said. "Are you alright?"
"No, I'm undergoing a major headache," she replied while rubbing her temples.
"And why would that be," another Itachi asked.
"Ahh! It's the attack of the evil clones," Sakura screamed while running around in circles.
"Sakura stop running around," Itachi said grabbing her red bag and dismissing the clone.
"You can't tell me what to do! This is my house!" Sakura screamed.
Itachi looked at her and smirked, "Hn."
Sakura froze, feet apart, and right hand extended towards Itachi with her index finger pointing towards him, her mouth parted in an 'o' and her emerald eyes staring at Itachi.
Itachi turned back towards her bag, smirk still in place, "so I'm going to put these clothes in a scroll. We have a week to get back to the village. You are wearing comfortable shoes right?"
"I hate you Itachi, you know that right?"
"I'm sure you hate me very much Sakura," Itachi replied.
"Hmph, I'm gonna go eat a sandwich," Sakura twirled around and left.
Itachi following suite. "You didn't answer my question Sakura."
"Yes Itachi I'm wearing comfortable shoes."
After lunch Itachi closed all the doors and windows and left a note for Kaho telling her the situation.
"Are you ready," Itachi asked opening the door.
"Yup," Sakura said clearly excited about the mission.
"Alright then," Itachi said taking a hold of Sakura's smaller hand.
The walk to the main gates was silent. Itachi was hoping nothing bad happened during the mission. Sakura was mentally running around her mind trying to get away from Inner who was chasing her with a giant fork. When they arrived at the gates Itachi signed himself and Sakura out.
"Itachi you guarding a kid," one of the guards asked.
Offensive?
I wonder what would happen if a giant snake slithered up his pants?
"In a way," Itachi responded.
As they walked out the gates Sakura grinned, turned around, and waved at the village. Itachi smirked and mentally prepared for the long trip ahead.
A/N: So what'd ya think? Did I trick you into thinking it was Fugaku? Right now Danzo has both of his eyes as in he still doesn't have the one sharingan eye. I think one of his eyes is the sharingan that belongs to Shisui if I'm wrong someone please tell me so.
Now to answer some questions:
Starberryblossom:
Q: Is there going to be romance between Sakura and Itachi when she gets older?
A: This story is based on the one month Itachi is taking care of her so I can't put any romance in this story. However, if you guys/girls like this story and would like one when Sakura is older I could do that. Of course only if you would like that and if various other people would like it too.
River of the sand:
Q: Inner can control Sakura?
A: In a way yes. Only if Sakura is mentally exhausted or emotionally wrecked that's when Inner can come out. Or Sakura can allow her to come out by falling asleep.
Ringo-nin:
Q: Will there be a massacre? Will Sakura be a ninja?
A: *Sigh* The massacre…I'm having a conflict on whether to have it or not so far the latter is winning. The reason for this is kind of tied to Starberryblossom's question. I will probably mention the massacre towards the end. Now as for Sakura being a ninja? Well, lets see what she thinks of her first mission ;)
And I think that's all please leave a review and thank you for waiting patiently for this update. Again sorry for the delay.
