Ch. 25

Menagerie

Itachi had made it to Menagerie, he jumped onto land as he had been running on water for a couple miles as Violet was only able to get him close to the island but not on it exactly, stating she did not have a specific permit that would allow her to dock on the island. It was dark out, but the houses around lit up the streets. He looked at his scroll, the mark on it told him to go towards the left side of the island, but then he heard multiple guns being fired at the large house down the long middle path.

He couldn't ignore it for some reason as he found himself running on top of the houses, a few Faunus exiting their homes seeing the black robe moving at incredible speeds above their homes. He made it as he jumped a great distance landing on the side patio. He ran into some White Fang members around the corner as he swiftly appeared in front of them, slashing two down as he ducked under a swing before shoulder charging into the man, knocking them down as he stomped on their head breaking the mask and knocking them unconscious.

"Get out of my house!"

Itachi entered through a door, seeing the two Faunus shooting at a woman taking cover behind a table. He ran up to the White Fang, grabbing one by the shoulder before spinning and using that member as a bat knocking the other into the wall. He tossed the the white fang member into the wall as he swiftly appeared in front of the two as they were supporting themselves up the wall, grabbing both by the face before slamming their heads into it.

He watched them fall as tilted his head to the side, evading a shot to his head that came from the woman behind the table. "I'm here to help." Itachi put his hands up as he slowly turned around. His eyes widened. "Blake?" He blinked a few times. "No, you must be her mother."

She looked at his robe and mask. "I know you, you are the one they call Reaper." Mrs. Belladonna still had the weapon pointed at him. "My daughter has told us about you, if you really are him, you are suppose to be in a Coma in Atlas."

"Then you know what I really look like under this mask." Blake's mother nodded, Itachi removed the black robe, revealing black pants and a tight long sleeve shirt. He then took hold of his mask and removed it from his face. "It is nice meeting you, Mrs. Belladonna."

She lowered her weapon, but her eyes widened when a white fang member came in behind Itachi and was about to shoot, but to he surprise Itachi threw a kunai at the members head before they could take the shot. "He's not dead just knocked out." Itachi turned towards the door. "Please get somewhere safe as I deal with the rest of the White Fang."

"You can't go alone, you must meet with my husband, he is somewhere in the house, he may be strong, but if he is outnumbered I am afraid to think about what could happen, but with the two of you together, I am sure this fight will end quickly."

Kali led Itachi through the house helping him dispose of any problems they met with. They walked towards the entrance of the house when Itachi grabbed Mrs. Belladonna saving her from a large fire blast.

"Thank you." She said as Itachi released her, she peeked around the corner "Ghira is in here."

"Please take some cover, I will help him." Itachi walked around the corner, throwing his Katana as it lodged into a white fangs shoulder who was about to shoot Ghira, he jumped onto the white fang pulling the sword out before knocking them out. He deflected a few bullets, swiftly appearing in front of Ghira as he activated his semblance, black flames danced across his body, he held his arm out open palmed as the two higher up white fang members combined their wind and fire attack which he took head on crushing the attack in the palm of his hand. "Mr. Belladonna, I regret to inform you that I will be remodeling your home, starting with knocking down that wall." Itachi opened his palm as a black sun formed above it, then he pointed two fingers at the white fang. "Cruel Sun."

The ball of fire swiftly collided with the two sending them crashing through the wall. Ghira jumped through the whole as he came to a pause. "Blake!"

Itachi stepped through the whole he created. "Divine Hammer!" Itachi brought his fist down on the head of the fox Faunus with a tail creating a crater where the Faunus collided with the ground. Itachi looked up at the fire raging above them. "I thought something was burning." His flames spread eating the regular flames before all was left were his. Then with a snap of his finger, the flames died out.

"Dad!" Blake shouted as her eyes widened when she saw him, black flames spread across his body as he fought alongside her father "I-Itachi!" She was then kicked away by Ilia whom she was fighting before the others came in.

"Ilia! What are you doing?! Fight!"

"Help Blake! I have this last one!" Ghira ordered Itachi whom nodded in return.

Itachi walked up to Ilia, black flames appearing with each step he took. He paused standing directly in front of the Faunus before deactivating his Semblance. "You can stop now, there is no reason for you to fight anymore. It's over." Itachi moved to the side evading her slashes and thrust as he made no move to attack as she attempted to pierce his head, but he swatted her weapon away and kicked her into a pillar. He walked up to the girl as she stood, using the breaking pillar to help her up as she threw a punch but he caught it easily, she threw another which he also caught as he pushed her back into the pillar.

"Stop! Please." They looked at Blake, tears running down her face.

Ilia took advantage that he was not looking to kick Itachi in the gut, he let her go as she jumped to her right, away from him. Itachi heard cracking as he looked at the pillar before jumping in front of Ilia as the top floor above them came crashing down, but Itachi had activated his Sharingan and the red skeletal arms held the floor up. "Go." He ordered Ilia who jumped away.

"NOOOO! You ruined everything!" The Corsac shouted running towards Itachi but Ilia used her weapons to wrap around him and electrocute him before she fell to her knees crying.

Itachi gave her a nod as he walked out from below the falling second floor, to which he gently placed down with the Susanoo hands. Ghira and Kali watched as his eyes returned to their onyx color before they saw him being tackled by their daughter in a tight embrace, tears running down her eyes.

Itachi smiled softly, gently stroking her head as he felt her tighten her hold on him. He finally brought his arms down to hold her close. "I'm back." He felt Blake nod into his shirt.

Minutes Later

Itachi leaned against the wall inside the house, having helped with getting the injured outside from the once burning home. Now he listened as Blake made her speech.

"Humans didn't do this. We did this. Faunus. We did this to ourselves. We are just as capable of hate and violence as the humans, but I don't think any of us would jump at the chance to point that out. So why are we letting Adam do it for us?! By doing nothing and staying silent, we let others speak and act in our place. And if we're not proud of the choices they make, then we have no one to blame but ourselves. This is the message Adam Taurus will bring to the world if no one stops him, but we can stop him! You have to understand that all of you are looking for simple answers to a very complicated problem. And I can't give that to you. I don't know how to make hate go away. I don't! But I know that this kind of violence is NOT the solution. I understand that to ask to leave your homes and protect Haven Academy is asking you to put your lives at risk...but that's what's at stake." Blake told the large groups of Faunus that had gathered in front of her families home as she also spotted Nanami, Isane and Sun as they walked towards the front of the crowd. "And knowing that, someone I care about, someone I love who was battling an illness, was on deaths door, someone who had just came out from their comatose state, someone that is Human, came here today, and protected my family and our people. And it hasn't been the first time, many of you may have heard of a person going around Remnant helping both Humans and Faunus, for he cares for all, no matter what race they are." Blake looked back towards to her house holding her hand out. "The person I love, my boyfriend, Itachi Uchiha."

Her parents eyes widened, mostly her fathers as her mother knew how she felt about the boy, as they had talked about him when she first arrived. They watched as Itachi walked out of the house, walking down the steps taking hold of her hand as many gasped and as the two girls they knew started crying, while Sun grinned giving him a thumbs up.

"So, I'm going, and I know I won't be alone." She gently squeezed Itachi's hand.

"I'll stand with you too!" Ilia shouted walking out of the shadows "If...you'd have me." She looked away.

"You're not going anywhere!" A guard grabbed her arm.

"Let her go." Blake ordered

"What? You're just going to forgive her?! After everything she did?" The guard asked

"I am." The guard looked at her father who nodded as he released the girl who walked down to Blake and Itachi.

"What does she think she's doing?"

"She's learned a lesson that evaded me until I was much older: That there is strength in forgiveness." Ghira told the guard.

"I'll go!"

"I'll go too!"

"I'll stand with you! I'll go! Yeah! Me too! Let's go! Yeah, let's go!" They heard shouts from all over the crowd.

Nanami walked up to them with Isane and Sun. "You know we are definitely going!" She grinned.

"Looks like we have work to do." Sun playfully punched Itachi on the shoulder "Glad to have you back buddy."

Itachi fist bumped with him. "Glad to be back."

"Hey, don't forget about us!" Isane picked him up in a bear hug.

"You're going to break him sis!" Nanami told her as she laughed and scratched the back of her head. "Blake just got him back and you're already trying to send him back to the dead." She sighed as she slipped in between them and held onto Itachi "He's my partner and team Captain, I should've been the first to hug him! Well, other than Blake but you know what I mean!"

"Speaking of being dead." Itachi started as they looked at him. "I can feel your father glaring daggers at me." Itachi had a bead of sweat running down the side of his face. "Did I already do something wrong?"

Moments Prior

"She's happy." Kali smiled looking down at her daughter with her boyfriend and their friends, she looked up at her husband who didn't speak. "Is something the matter?"

Ghira looked down at her. "No, I just would have never thought Blake would fall for a human, I'm not saying it's bad, but she does look very happy with him." he smiled.

"Oh? Could it be that you like him as our son in law?" Kali smirked.

"Please Kali, they are merely dating, for such things they must marry first before they do anything other than simply holding hands or even...k-k-kissing."

"They've had sex." She blurted out as she could see his eyes darkening as she rolled her eyes. "We didn't wait until we were married, and look we are perfect for each other, just like they are, well them and that Weiss girl that Blake told us about."

A fire lit up in both his eyes and around his being. "I'll never forgive him!" He growled as he glared daggers at Itachi's head.

"Oh calm down, from what Blake told me, it was her and her teammates choice." Kali sighed as she grabbed his hand now let's go down there, we have much work to do."

Present

"So why exactly did you come to Menagerie?" Isane asked Itachi

He looked at Blake. "For her." Her eyes widened a small blush appearing on her cheeks "There are bigger things happening out in the world, things that will need our teams to band back together, a great threat, but that is something we need to talk about at a later time." Isane and Nanami looked down and away, Itachi taking notice. "What's the matter?"

"We...we can't join you after the Haven Academy mission, Itachi." Nanami grabbed her arm, squeezing it.

Isane placed a hand on her shoulder. "Things happened with the water tribe on the west coast of the island, and we are needed here..."

Itachi nodded. "I understand."

"That doesn't mean our team has officially been disbanded yet!" Nanami told him as he smiled placing a hand on her head, gently ruffling her hair. "Thank you." Nanami shed a tear.

They looked behind them as Blakes parents walked down the steps. "We have about two weeks before Adam's attack on Haven. We're going to need shields, training, whatever we can do to protect as many people as possible." Ghira stated.

"We'll need transportation too. For everyone." Kali said.

Blake looked at Nanami, Sun and Isane. "I think I know a ship captain who owes us a favor."

Itachi took out his scroll. "I have a few people who owe me favors as well." He typed into his scroll sending a few messages. "As for training, I can help with that as well." He put his scroll away.

Nanami grinned. "Oh, this is going to be fun."

Ghira placed a hand on Itachi's shoulder. Itachi looked up at Ghira who towered over him. "How about you and I have a small chat." Itachi blinked, nodding slowly and followed Ghira, well more like Ghira had a good hold on his shoulder and was being dragged along.

"What just happened?" Blake questioned

Kali sighed. "Your father just being overprotective." Kali then smirked at her daughter. "By the way, great choice, I like him." She laughed seeing the blush creep onto her daughters face.

Time Skip- With Weiss

Itachi walked next to Qrow as the others followed them through Haven Academies grounds. They walked in through the front doors seeing the Headmaster of Haven standing at the top of a balcony, beneath him a statue of a woman holding the balcony up.

"Why hello. Thank you for...coming." Lionheart looked at everyone. "There seems to be more of you than last time." He chuckled nervously.

"Eh, you know what they say, "The more, the merrier." So what's going on with the council." Qrow replied

"Something doesn't sit well." Itachi whispered as Qrow grunted. "Be ready for anything."

"Why...did you bring your weapons?" Lionheart asked

"What? Leo, we are Huntsmen."

Itachi clicked his tongue. "We've been set up. To our right, Three O'clock."

Qrow shot his weapon at the Raven sitting to their right, as it flew away behind Leo and turned into Raven.

"Mom?"

"If you're going to shoot me, shoot me. That was insulting."

"What are you doing here?" Qrow asked

"I could ask you the same thing. You've been scheming, little brother. Planning to attack your own sister." She slowly walked down the steps to the side.

Qrow looked at Leo. "Leo...what have you done?!"

"Leo did what any sane person would do in his position, he looked at all the information he had in front of him, assessed the situation, and made a choice. And it seems you all have too." She said as she looked at Yang.

"You have the spring Maiden." Qrow said as he put his weapon away. "Hand her over and let's work together! We can beat Salem!"

"She doesn't have the Spring Maiden." Itachi stepped forward taking hold of the executioners blade he had retrieved from Weiss. "She is the Spring Maiden."

"What?!" Raven laughed "Me? A Maiden?"

"Don't deny it..." He inched closer as Raven unsheathed her weapon "...I can feel the power. As for defeating Salem, that's why I- that's why we are here."

Raven glared at Itachi and Qrow. "All that time spying for Ozpin and you still have no idea what you're dealing with. There is no beating Salem!" She watched as Qrow and Itachi slowly moved towards her sides, in attempt to flank her.

"You're wrong. We've done things that most people would call impossible, and I know the only reason we were able to do it is because we didn't do it alone! We had people to teach us, people to help us, we had each other. Work with us. At least I know we'll have a better chance if we try together." Ruby walked forward as she stretched her arm out, holding out her hand for Raven to take. "Please."

Raven looked at her hand then back up at her. "You sound just like your mother." Raven swung her weapon beside her opening a portal as a ball of fire shot from inside hitting Ruby.

Itachi lunged forward as a wall of flames was spread in front of him causing him to jump back momentarily as Cinder along with Vernal, Mercury and Emerald walked out of the portal.

"C'mon guys, is that anyway to greet your old friends?" Mercury sarcastically said

Itachi looked behind them and sighed. "Everybody stay calm." Qrow ordered.

"The White Fang is prepping demolition and securing the school grounds. No one is getting in and no one is getting out." Itachi stood in between the group and the new person that had walked in.

"Raven, tell me, how long have you been with them?" Qrow asked his sister.

"Aww, don't take it personally, little bird. Your sister was a recent addition. The lion on the other hand...entrance into the Vytal Festival was a real treat, but Leonardo's been sending Salem all sorts of information for a very, very long time. Isn't that right, Professor?"

"It was you...You sit on the Mistral Council. You had information on every Huntsmen and Huntress in the Kingdom, and you gave it all to her. I couldn't find any of them because you let her kill hem!" Qrow glared at Leo.

"Aw now, don't beat yourself up about it, Lionheart, I'm sure Tyrian and Hazel would've found them on their own eventually." Cinder informed him.

"What is wrong with you?! How can you be so broken inside...to take so many lives, and then come here and rub it in our faces like it's something to be proud of?! All with that damn smile on your face!" Jaune looked up at her, tears streaming down his face as everyone got into battle positions.

"It was me Jaune..." Itachi gripped his weapon. "I killed Pyrrha...I failed in attempting to save another friend, and because of it she's dead." He turned and walked next to Jaune placing a hand on his shoulder. "And you know it too, I've seen how you have been looking at me since my return, and I don't blame you...if I had been faster, had I been there sooner, she would still be here, and I would've been the only one fighting against Cinder, but I was weak..."

Jaune shook his head. "No, Ruby told me everything. You were sick, battling a deadly illness that was weakening you, she told me you took an arrow for Pyrrha...I can't blame you...I don't want to blame you! Because in the end you tried..."Jaune glared at Cinder "I'm gonna make you pay for what you did!"

Cinder glared at Itachi, not meeting his eyes. "You were suppose to be dead."

"I told you, I will never be a memory."

"Well?! Say something?!"

Cinder looked next to Itachi, emotionless. "Who are you again?"

Jaunes sword became wider as he ran towards Cinder, who created a sword of her own. Itachi followed right behind Jaune when he saw Emerald throw her weapon at him as the chain wrapped around his hand. He narrowed his eyes when he yanked on the chain causing Emerald to be pulled towards him as he swung his blade, Emerald using her other weapon to block but was sent tumbling back towards Ruby.

Mercury had launched himself in the air as he came down, leg up ready to hit Itachi, but Itachi easily blocked with his sword, grabbing onto his leg then slamming him into the floor as he rose his blade and swung down, debris sent across the room and once it settled, Mercury's head was still intact as the blade had sunk into the ground but his head had manged to be in the semi-circle. Itachi lifted his blade before swinging it, sending Mercury rolling in front of Yang.

Raven narrowed her eyes. "Take the Heiress, don't bother wasting your power, she's not worth it." She ordered Vernal as she unsheathed her blade once more "I'll handle those two." She then blocked an attack from Qrow.

"Running away was one thing, but this...You've crossed the line."

"Sorry brother, sometimes family disappoints you like that."

"We are not family anymore."

"Were we ever?"

"I thought so, but I guess I was wrong." Qrow pushed forward still at a stalemate with Raven as they began fighting away from the others.

Itachi and Jaune flanked Cinder as she conjured up a second weapon to block Itachi's but then he pulled her weapon towards him, headbutting her as she moved back. Itachi appeared behind her about to run his blade through her back when he heard Weiss' cry.

Cinder kicked back as he blocked and skid a few feet as she pushed Jaune back as well. "Are you planning on letting her die too?" She glanced back at Itachi.

"Stop messing with us!" Jaune shouted

"As you wish." Her black sword burst into flames as she lunged towards Jaune.

Jaune lunged at Cinder as he saw Itachi right next to her, he witnessed as Itachi swung his sword and Cinder placing a hand on his chest. She blew him away but Itachi had manged to cut her arm deeply then there was a white light, then he saw Cinder fall to the ground he thrust his sword and manged to cut part of the mask over her left eye.

Cinder was mad as she stood fire in her hands as she walked up to the fallen Jaune, but Itachi was back in between the two. "You won't defeat me, I know your weakness!"

Itachi twisted the handle on his blade as it transformed into the tri-bladed Scythe. He lunged forward at her who had created a long spear and turned towards Weiss who was slowly getting back up. His eyes widened as he was swinging his weapon a chain grabbed hold of it, he glared at Emerald as black flames burst from his body, sending Cinder crashing into a wall, he yanked on the chain once more pulling Emerald towards him. With a single finger he thrust it into her stomach as she vomited out blood. He turned towards Cinder that had regained her footing and was in the process of throwing the spear. He tossed Emerald at Cinder as he created a black sun in the palm of his hand but before he could shoot it, a red portal opened behind him and yanked him through it. When he appeared once more he felt a sword stab through him as he saw Qrows eyes widened. Itachi grabbed the sword, pulling it out as he tossed it to the side then his eyes widened. The spear was at mid-flight, heading directly at Weiss. His Semblance deactivated as his eyes turned into his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan in attempt to get Weiss out in time but it wold be too late, as his right eye turned purple, rings spreading across his right eye as it had six tomoe around the pupil.

"NOOO!" Everyone heard Jaune shout

They looked towards Weiss but to their surprise and Shock, it was not Weiss that had been there impaled by the spear. There in Weiss' place was Itachi, the spear running through his right abdomen. Itachi slowly turned around, blood pouring out from where Raven had stabbed him as the spear disintegrated and he took a few steps forward.

"This is the second time...you impale me..."

Jaune ran up to Itachi as he put his arm over his shoulder. "Don't move! We need to get your wound closed up..."

Weiss ran up to them taking a hold of Itachi. "Stop being so stubborn and sit down!" Weiss attempted to move him but he wouldn't budge. "Please...I...we just got you back..." tears began forming under her eyes as she felt his hand on her cheek, his thumb wiping the tears away. "Itachi, please..."

Itachi looked at Ruby who was still down. He glared at Cinder who smirked alongside Raven and Vernal, he then looked at Hazel who had injected himself with lighting crystals and was attacking Oscar and Qrow who was protecting him. Itachi coughed out blood as his leg gave out and he kneeled. The two with him managed to help him so he wouldn't completely fall.

"He isn't breathing right, and he's losing too much blood! Do something!" Weiss shouted.

Jaune shook his head. "No! It's not supposed to be like this! Please! Live! We can't lose anyone else, you owe it to me, to us, to Pyrrha!" Jaune closed his eyes not noticing how his aura was merging, amplifying Itachi's.

Outside

Blake and the Faunus were currently bringing down the rest of the corrupt White Fang on Haven grounds as they saw Hazel being pierced by a stinger as it dragged him back into the school.

Itachi landed next to her as she nodded and they ran into the school as Weiss gasped at their appearance as she then looked over at the Itachi that was with Jaune. Blake's eyes first fell upon Yang as they then moved to Itachi on his knee, next to Jaune.

"What's going on? Why are there two of you?" She questioned Itachi who stood next to her.

He looked at his original self. "We split our bodies into two, so that we could find you and Weiss before coming back together and merging once more." Itachi explained as he saw his other self stand up as Jaune protested telling him to sit. "That being said, since we were split, so was our power and strength, but it seems he's better now." His other self nodded. "We have business to attend to back outside, let's go." He turned and walked back outside as Blake followed, but nodded at her teammates first.

Many of those following Adam had either surrendered not wishing to fight their brethren, or went down fighting. Blake stood in front of Adam glaring daggers at him.

"I'm going to make you regret ever coming back."

"More police are on their way, Adam. Huntsmen too." Blake stated

Adam chuckled. "Still too afraid to face me on your own."

"I'm here for Haven, not you." Adam grabbed his weapon pointing it at her as she grabbed hers and got into her stance.

"Heh, you are still afraid, and you should be. I've made powerful friends while you've been away."

"Is that so?" Adam turned his body so he could look at Itachi who appeared a few feet away from him. "Where exactly? I don't see many people here willing to fight for you."

Adam pointed his Katana at him. "Tell me...does Blake make all of her classmates fight for her?"

"No, I've actually wanted to fight you for sometime now." Itachi unsheathed his Katana "You've caused many people pain, Adam."

"You can try and make me regret coming here, Adam, but honestly, I've got more important things to deal with."

Adam was getting mad. "Oh, and I'm not just her classmate." Adam focused his attention on Itachi "I'm her boyfriend."

Adam lost it as he lunged at Itachi, both swords colliding as Adam pressed his gun sheathe against Itachi's abdomen, but Itachi smiled as Blake came down swinging her weapon causing Adam to block with his sheathe. Itachi took hold of his wrist, breaking it as Adam dropped his sword, but he jumped over Itachi pointing his sheathe at him as he fired, but Blake blocked the shot. The two chased after Adam as he ran into the woods, Itachi was about to run in after him but Blake called out to him to stop.

Itachi looked back at Blake who placed her hands on his jacket. "He wants to lure us away, so he can try to pick us off." Itachi looked back at the woods as he felt her grip on his jacket tighten.

Itachi nodded, letting out a small sigh. "You are right, We need to protect the school and the people first. Besides, now he can see what it feels like to run away..." Itachi leaned down, hands on her waist as he whispered in her ear. "I might need some saving as well, Koneko-chan."

Blake blushed madly. "Itachi...we should help the others inside first..."

Itachi chuckled. "I know, now let's go."

Inside

Hazel had destroyed Weiss summon as Blake jumped through the ice and kicked Hazel back a few feet as then Itachi appeared in front of Hazel who looked down on him. Black flames dancing on Itachi as he uppercut Hazel towards the ceiling. Itachi's other half also appeared high above, the tri-bladed scythe in hand as he swung, three large cuts as the blades cut through his flesh as Hazel was shot down into the ground, a crater forming where he crashed.

Both Itachi's stood next to each other as they nodded. The scythe wielding Itachi ran towards Hazel that was now getting back up, but his eyes widened when he saw the blades of the scythe swipe at his left, then at his right, then he felt something hit him in the back, he looked around and saw the two Itachi's each holding a sphere of black flames.

"Cruel Sun." Both attacks launched towards Hazel as they collided. The ground shook and debris flew all over the area. Once it cleared they saw Hazel standing, but had burn marks all over his body.

"He withstood that?" Nora couldn't believe it.

"I wasn't trying to kill him." Itachi stated as his other self dispersed as he could feel much of his strength returning. "That feels better." He looked at the three, Emerald having come back out of her slumber "Stand down, you've lost."

Emerald shook her head. "It's not over! Cinder will come back and she will have the Relic, and she'll stop all of you! She won't let us down." They heard the floor moving as they watched Yang appear with the Relic in hand as Emerald teared up and fell to her knees, her breathing getting faster.

"Emerald get up we need to go." Mercury whispered as he and Hazel began slowly backing up. "Emerald!"

"No you don't." Itachi stepped forward but Emerald began to scream, a large figure of a woman wearing a black robe she had pale skin, black sclera and red eyes, red vein like markings running up her arms and to her eyes. His eyes widened. "Damn it." His Sharingan activated and the Illusion broke down, but they had escaped. He thought of running after them, but was stopped by Ozpin.

"Wha- what was that?" Blake questioned

"An illusion." Itachi stated

Ozpin nodded. "An accurate one...That...was Salem." He informed them.

"This is the first time I've seen what she looks like." Itachi said as Blake nodded with him, they then turned to see her parents along with their friends run inside. Blake hugged her parents as Nanami and Isane hugged him. "Not too hard, I can feel the pain from being impaled still."

"The police have rounded up the White Fang members. Haven is safe." Kali said holding her daughter hands

"Unfortunately, it appears that Adam escaped." Ghira told the group, a hand on his wife and daughter shoulders.

"It's okay. He was the only one to escape tonight." Ilia stepped inside the building. "Those in the White Fang that followed him? Won't support a leader that abandons his people. He won't have their help after this. He'll have no one at all. And the White Fang will be left divided."

"We've been fighting among ourselves for too long. Perhaps it's time for a new brotherhood. A new family for Faunus working towards a better world." Ghira then looked at Itachi. "Along with a human." Itachi smiled and nodded.

Kali smiled as she placed her hand on her husbands abdomen. "And they'll need a new leader."

Nanami and Sun waved at the others as they grabbed Itachi and Blake. Itachi and Blake walked towards the group, Ruby having fallen to her knees from exhaustion as Weiss and Yang kneeled down beside her.

Ruby looked at the two. "So, Blake...what are you doing here?"

Blake held her arm. "I, uh, was going to ask you three the same thing."

"That's...a looong story."

"Well, I'm not going anywhere."

"That's all that matters. That we are all here together." Ruby looked at Weiss then turned to Yang. "Right?"

Yang looked at Blake before smiling softly. "Yea." Itachi touched her elbow and urged her to join the three girls who opened their arms for her. Blake smiled and ran up to the three, falling to her knees as she hugged her teammates, her friends."

Itachi walked over to Oscar and Qrow. "He had.. a message...we must...get the lamp to...Atlas." Oscar said as he fell unconscious from exhaustion.

"You doing okay, kid?" Qrow asked Itachi "You know with the whole, getting stabbed in the back, then in your lower abdomen."

He looked over at Yang and the girls before turning back to Qrow. "Where is that sister of yours anyway? She owes me for stabbing me through the back."

Qrow chuckled. "Yang said she's gone, same with Cinder..."

"Itachi." Itachi turned around Nanami and Isane walking up to him. "This is it..." Nanami smiled, tears in her eyes as she hugged Itachi. "Please, don't forget about us."

Itachi reciprocated the embrace. "You talk like we will never see each other again." Itachi pat her head. "I've been given permission by Blake's father to visit Menagerie anytime I wish." Nanami looked up at him wide eyed. "This is not a goodbye, but until next time." Itachi poked her forehead as she moved back and wiped her tears.

"Come here kid!" Isane gave him one last hug. "Make sure you visit our side of Menagerie when you do come by! Or just drop some blood into the water, Nanami and I have the best noses in water, we'll be able to know it's you in a heartbeat."

Itachi chuckled. "Or I can call like any normal person." They laughed as Isane slapped him in the back which caused him to curse slightly.

Isane put her hands up. "Sorry, I forgot." She scratched the back of her head. They watched as Nanami and Sun walked up to the other groups and began talking. "Our parents are worried after what happened in Beacon..."

"So they want her to stay back home." Itachi assumed to which Isane nodded. "Or she could go to Shade Academy. Maybe even a certain Faunus with a teaching degree could get a job there." Isane looked at Itachi with a risen eyebrow as he looked at her and he took out his scroll. "It's only a few calls away."

Her eyes widened as she ran towards Nanami. "Little Sis, we're going to Shade!"

Qrow shook his head. "Just how many people owe you favors, kid."

"Too many." Itachi chuckled as he saw Blake and Weiss walking up to him, well more like stomping and behind them were the others following after. "Shit."

"You!" Weiss pointed at him "You were impaled! So why are you walking around like nothing?!"

"You were impaled?!" Blake questioned

"Twice." Qrow chimed in

"Twice?!" Blake lifted his shirt seeing three scars.

"Wait, the there are three." Isane stated

"I need a closer look." Yang said getting closer. "You're right. I've never seen this one on his chest before."

"That's...the scar from the arrow I took for Pyrrha..." Itachi looked at Jaune. "I truly am sorry..."

Jaune put a hand on his shoulder. "You at least tried, and that's what matters."

Itachi nodded as he looked at the girls still looking at his bare chest and abs. "Are you done yet?"

"Huh?" Weiss questioned popping up behind his shirt as she waved her hand. "No, we are still...examining." Her head disappeared as he heard Yang telling her it was a nice save.

Itachi rolled his eyes, taking his shirt from Blake and pulling it down. "Hey!" They protested to his action. Itachi looked away a small tint of pink appearing on his cheeks as they laughed.

Blake and Weiss smiled, each grabbing a hold of his arm, pulling him down before placing kiss on his cheeks. "Thank you."

And that's an other one down! Yes, Nanami and Isane will be departing from the story, which I'm sure most people won't mind anyway. It will not be the last we see of them tho, when? Who knows lol. I'll make sure to actually post the next chapter next weekend, hopefully I don't get too sidetracked.

ch1ll- Yes, that was. R.I.P Kobe #24

Kage-kitsune9001- It would, but I've decided on it being showed to him...whether it be voluntarily or forced from him. And he does have Kamui now! And any ability Obito had with his Mangekyo.

keybladelight- Yeah they want his chakra. I'm glad you liked their encounter. That's Itachi's Pride showing lol. And this chapter revealed it! As for his past, I've already started working on that chapter, so it will be revealed really soon.

artem-abramov-2004- No, the biggest reason being Itachi never knew about Shin Uchiha, and another reason being that there won't be any Naruto characters coming into Remnant, mentions of them, yes, but going to remnant, no.

razmire- when have you ever seen a government "discover" great power and not want it for themselves. Of course they will attempt to retrieve him.

seant5054- Sorry, but my next I already have two other crossovers I will be working on, and MCU isn't one of them. Though, I do like the idea of that, but I would probably pair Itachi up with someone else or have him have actual relationships with different women, Not at the same time, no harem, but like in actual life, one doesn't work out, okay, go on with life and find others.

GhostDT- Well, the first chapter was just to see if anyone would be willing to read the story. Yes, it was rushed. He used his Sharingan to gain information he lacked, very shinobi like. Did you ever think he found their location by either finding the information from Isane, or literally using his sensory capabilities? He didn't kill any of them as stated in the chapter, they were all knocked out. Isane did not end up being his partner. Of course he is OC, this isn't back in the Elemental Nations anymore, he can actually be a human being and not some uncaring robot that shows no emotion or care for the world as he did in the original. Go back and recheck the chapters? What are you my editor? I do what I wish, I write what I want to write. You don't like it? Make your own, or read something you will like. If all you read was the first chapter and you decided you didn't like it, then ok goodbye, if you want to keep reading that is fine with me.
