The Start Of The Party
Well, it was the dreaded day. And by the dreaded day, I mean it was the day of the party. The truce.
I got dressed in my black and white dress and put the mask on before putting on make-up.
I headed out to the lounge to find Hinata, Temari and Tenten waiting.
"Oh my gosh, you look gorgeous!" Hinata exclaimed.
I grinned, "Thanks."
"But it suddenly changed to a masked ball." Tenten then said.
"That was my idea." I then said.
"You got Uchiha Fugaku to like your idea?" Hinata asked incredulously.
I grinned, "Probably the workings of history."
"He remembers you?" Temari asked.
I shook my head, "His mother mentioned the little girl Sasuke used to play with - Me - and how truthful she was. They said I was like her, well, because I am her!"
"It must be nerve wracking. Not wanting them to find out." Tenten then said.
I nodded, "It is... Oh, it was really weird but guess who tried to hit on me?" I asked them.
"Don't tell me. The older Uchiha bastard of a brother?" Jin's voice asked.
We all turned to see Elemental descend from the stairs.
"That guy's just... annoying." Daisuki then said.
"Sex change, right?" Rei laughed.
Tadashi laughed with him and then as he stood next to me, bumped me, "You ready for the party?"
I took a deep breath and just before I could reply, Tenten interrupted me.
"Oh my gosh. You're Elemental, right? You guys are awesome!" She exclaimed.
"You, my friend are awesome at singing!" Hinata exclaimed to Daisuki.
"I never thought that sometime in my life, I would ever meet you guys." Temari exclaimed.
"Sayuri, who're the girls?" Jin asked.
"My friends." I grinned, "It's been a long time since I had them."
Daisuki patted my head, "It's good to know that they're there for you."
Rei walked to them and grinned, "Look after her, okay?"
"We definitely will." Hinata smiled.
"I swear I just died." Tenten laughed.

Okay. So there I was. Standing in this gigantic room that was probably meant for dances - balls - i guess. There were quite a lot of people here already but I had no doubt that there would be more.
"I'm going to go get some punch." I stated as I walked quickly away.
I arrived at the snack table and stood there and just breathed.
"Are you going to get a snack or are you just going to stand there and stare at them?" A slightly familiar voice asked.
I turned. Uchiha Itachi. "As much of a 'joke' that was," I started, "It wasn't funny."
Itachi smirked, "You know, girls like you are usually easy targets." He said, "Don't worry though. By the end of tonight you will have already fallen for me."
I scoffed, "I would rather stick pins in my eyes."
"People just say that-"
"Okay then. If I'm just saying it then hand me some pins. Anything sharp will do." I hissed.
He put his hands up in a defensive gesture, "Okay, okay. I get it." He smirked again, "You're just a love struck girl in denial."
I sighed as I looked him straight in the eye, "The party has only just started and you've already gotten me in a bad mood. One more word from your mouth and I will storm out of this house."
He opened his mouth as if to speak.
"I don't care about the truce." I hissed. "You destroyed a part of my brothers life and you won't get away with it."
With that, I turned and walked back to my friends.
Before I could reach them, Mikoto and Fugaku came to me.
Mikoto smiled, "Was Itachi annoying you?"
I breathed, "I don't mean to offend but I have no idea how you can cope with a guy like that."
Fugaku laughed, "Just tell us if he bothers you again."
I nodded, "Thank you." I said. "Oh! And thank you again for taking in my idea."
Fugaku nodded in a kind way, "My wife was just thrilled about it. I had no choice."
Mikoto laughed, "Oh my, it was all my fault, he says."
Fugaku laughed with her, "Well we should probably welcome the other guests first."
I started walking to my friends until yet other people got in my way.
"Like OMG, your dress is seriously in! Where'd you get it?" Asked a familiar voice. Karin.
I smirked, "Like OMG, you really think so?"
"OMG, why wouldn't we?" Sakura asked.
"OMG, stop saying OMG you bunch of bitches. I like never want to talk to you again." I chuckled as I walked off after Karin gave a frustrated scream.
"Okay, I will reach my friends this time." I muttered but I guess it really wasn't my day and I once again bumped into some people.
"Sorry." The voice said. And I noticed it in an instant. Sasuke.
He stared at me, "Oh hey, you're Amane Obito's daughter."
Naruto pushed through, "Seriously? Can you take your mask off?"
I shook my head. One of them might recognize my voice.
"Maybe it was fate to bump into each other at this party, Sasuke."
Sasuke sighed and nodded, "Yes, yes. I hear about fate every day."
"Oh hey Sa-"
I hit him. Hard.
"What the hell?" He gave me a weird look and then an 'Ohhhh' expression, "Sorry about that."
I put on a different voice, "That's alright."
"Your voice sounds kind of fake." Neji stated.
"Your hair looks kind of fake and I'm not complaining about it." I stated, not wanting him to point out other fake points of mine right now.
Neji walked off and so did Naruto with a, "Seeya!"
Then it was just Shikamaru, Sasuke and I.
"Do you guys know each other?" Sasuke asked.
Shikamaru shook his head, "It was this other guy that I knew that had a friend that had another friend that knew her. It was at a group thing." Shikamaru added after Sasuke gave him a weird look.
Before that, Sasuke and I were pulled away from Shikamaru and to the stage thing that was at the back of the room.
"Who is that?" I yelled.
"Uchiha Itachi. We have to be up there to introduce ourselves and welcome everyone. Your brother is already making his way up there." He replied.
What? Introduce ourselves? He HAD to be kidding!
That's it! Please review and wait for Chapter 13!
