Itachis POV:
"Like the Obito?" Hinata asked, every ounce of serious appeared on her face. I wanted to answer her but I couldn't, I felt like I had something stuck in my throat.
"Yes" Kakashi said, sighing and his eyes navigated back to mine. I couldn't look anywhere else, I knew he was feeling all different types of emotions too.
"There's no way, you watched him die" Hinata emphasized the word in disbelief.
"Unless he's an imposter and knows every detail of the day we have no proof otherwise" Kakashi said, I couldn't figure out which emotion he was leaning on. But, I couldn't even decide what emotion to lean on. I was terrified for Sasuke's life but I was also angry someone had threatened to start a war over something the very organization I was in sought after.
"No, that's really Obito.." I said scarcely.. Looking at everyone.
"How do you know?" Hinata asked, looking at me mildly upset now. My eyes averted to Kisame since he knew the entire truth. He gave me a look as in to let them know because I knew he wouldn't let anyone take Sasuke either.
I looked back at Hinata, they all knew what I was about to say but they wanted me to say it. I took a deep breath before I started talking because I knew the questions were coming.
"He's the one who helped me the night I massacred my clan" I told them and I looked at Sasuke when I said it. His face was stone, I couldn't figure out what was going on in his mind and I knew this subject was a tough one.
"So.. we do have family left" Sasuke muttered and I was taken back a little bit.
"Yes but he's a psychopath, he helped me orchestrate a mass homicide" I spat back at him, not meaning to.
"You're no better, you also helped" he turned towards me now, practically hissing. I had a feeling the images of our parents were flooding his head now. I deserved what he said, he wasn't wrong.
"Why'd you keep it a secret this entire time?" Hinata asked, interrupting us.
"He threatened to take Sasuke if I told anyone he was alive" I said, looking at the ceiling quickly. I internally cursed at myself. I just hoped he wasn't around to hear any of this. He managed to interrupt a meeting at the summit. Nevermind if he appeared in a room with us. We were strong but Obito will always do what he wanted.
"You held in a secret like this all this time and now he's a threat to our home. To everyone, actually" Sasuke said, shocking me. I looked back over, this is affecting him more than I knew.
"What did he say to you that night, anyways?" my brother asked another question, not letting anyone get a chance to speak. Every bit of detail that had happened that night we're coming to mind and I swallowed the lump in my throat.
"He swore he would burn the village down to the ground one day for what they did to his love... He then threatened to take you if I ever spoke his name... I tried to kill him but he was too quick for me in my state of mind at the time.. He then appeared behind me, held a kunai to my throat and told me if I ever told anyone about that night, I would regret it because their were bigger things to come after him" I said rather slowly in pieces because the anxiety I was having was building up slowly.
Before anyone could speak again, the front door was being knocked on. Hinata moved to go get it before anyone even thought about it. I was glad someone interrupted, I could take a second to think. My brain was becoming clouded from being questioned.
The sound of footsteps coming up the stairwell grabbed my attention, Hinata walked in first with Neji right behind her.
"Sorry I took so long" Neji said, glancing at Kakashi and then I realized Kakashi had been rather quiet this entire time. Neji shifted toward Kakashi, behind his desk so he could be up here and Hinata took her place back near the staircase.
"Did I miss something? It feels really tense in here" Neji asked, looking at all of us.
"Yeah you did," Sasuke told him, not taking his eyes off of me.
"You missed Itachi being an idiot" Sasuke spat, getting off the couch this time. I could clearly read his emotions now, it was anger.
"You could of told someone Obito was alive, this could have prevented a war! But no, again, you're selfish! Now, we have to risk our lives against whatever this guy has up his sleeve because there's no way in hell I'm letting them take Naruto and I could see from the way the Raikage was, he won't let anyone get his hands on his little brother!" Sasuke screamed at me, I backed up a foot because he kept walking toward me while yelling. His sharingan was fully active now.
"I had no way of telling anyone, I killed our entire bloodline, I had to run" I tried to defend myself and I could see the expression on his face twist. I could tell by the way his arm was tensing he was probably going to swing at me again like he did over a week ago.
"You could of stayed behind and dealt with the problems you caused. But instead you ran away" my brothers voice calmed a little bit I knew he was still livid.
"You life was in danger, twice. I've done nothing my entire life but protect you" I told him, my temper was coming out but I knew it wouldn't matter in the end anyways because I was wrong.
"I don't care! You stole everything from me and I'll be damned if this monster takes what remains" Sasuke glared now.
"Sasuke, I think that's enough" Kakashi said calmly. Not the good kind of calm, the kind of calm where ice ran through your veins.
"No! No one else is saying anything!" he shouted at Kakashi now but removed himself from my personal space anyways.
"You're right about everything but hitting him isn't going to help anyone" Kakashi spoke again but this time you could hear the venom in his voice and I finally made eye contact with him.
"Is there anything else we need to know?" kakashi asked me.
"No, that's it. You guys know everything now. I have no more secrets" I admitted, it was true. Every bad thing I had ever kept secret was finally out in the air.
"I'm not saying it's your fault this war is coming but Sasuke is right. Maybe if you'd somehow let us know Obito was alive and vengeful, we could have stopped this" Kakashi spoke again, I kept my eyes on him now. I guess it was a good thing they didn't know Kisame knew.
"He was vengeful when he found me and if he wanted to be found he wouldn't of done this good of a job staying hidden all these years" I said casually. It sounded more rude than I had intended and Kakashis face dropped.
"Can you all go downstairs so I can have a word with Itachi alone?" Kakashi asked, we didn't break eye contact. Everyone moved rather quickly and we were alone. Kakashi did a hand sign, signifying that nobody would hear us now.
"I didn't mean for that to be rude" I spoke honestly. He put his hand up, signaling me to stop talking and so I did.
"How could you?" he asked me, his emotions were scattered again.
"I'm confused" I admitted and waited for him to elaborate
"You knew he was alive and you didn't bother telling me?" he asked again and I wasn't sure what to say.
"I couldn't, I just told you why" I said.
"You know how this village operates, we wouldn't let anything happen to Sasuke. You know this and yet you kept the fact my best friend has been alive this entire time. You know it bothers me every night, I have nightmares about it to do this day" he spat at me.
"I'm not sure what to tell you" I mumbled. I really didn't.
"Your brother is right, you're selfish. All you ever do if cause emotional turmoil" kakashi said, and he laughed a bit at the end of his sentence. That hurt, I've been battling with all the wrongs I've ever done and just when I thought everyone was okay, they aren't.
"I've been trying to hard to fix everything and all it does is get thrown back in my face. How am I supposed to move on if no one else can?" I asked him with a slight attitude. He didn't say anything and my temper was near ready to be released. How was I supposed to move on if no one else was?
"Maybe if you didn't kill Rin, he wouldn't be so angry. He wouldn't of helped me destroy my entire bloodline" I snapped at him, he stopped completely and stared at me.
"You have no idea what you're talking about" he defended himself slamming his hand on desk, standing up. Then I realized that this is probably what Obito wanted, everyone fighting but I couldn't take back what I said.
"I didn't mean that, my anger got the better of me," I said as calmly as possible, trying to recompose myself.
"But you said it and I know you mean it. If Hinata didn't care so much for you, you would be out of here" he said, venom dripping from his voice.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked, genuinely confused now.
"The village" he said and that stuck with me.
"You can't cast me aside because of personal feelings about something I just said!" I raised my voice a bit, he wasn't thinking rationally and I knew it was because of Obito.
"I could if I wanted to" he said nonchalantly.
"You're just upset Obito is alive and he didn't seek you out, you're upset because Rin isn't here to help you with him. You're upset because you're the Hokage and you hate responsibility and you're upset Hinata chose me over you" I said smugly but rude enough to get my point across.
The very next second I was glad my reflexes were fast because Kakashi had thrown three kunais in my direct, all sticking into the wall. His eyes read murder.
"Get out!" he yelled.
"No! You want to act like a child and throw things at me because I'm right?" I yelled back, ready to defend myself. I couldn't hit him because of his Hokage status, that's a crime in itself.
"Itachi, you have three seconds to get out of face before I make you regret standing here" he deadpanned.
"I'm not leaving until we settle this" I said, crossing my arms.
"You're not going to bring me here to question me, make me feel horrible and then try any physically hurt me because I spoke the truth" I bluntly spoke again before he could and I just watched him.
He decided violence was the answer at the moment and he threw some more kunai at me. I dodged them all and I could tell he wanted to do more.
I blinked and he appeared in front of me, trying to punch me in the face. I blocked him with my forearms.
"You know nothing of Rin, don't speak her name!" he said, trying to kick me and I pushed his leg away. My tolerance for defense was going to deplete quickly and I was going to strike back soon if he continued. I felt like I was dealing with an angry younger Sasuke who would lose his temper and I had to wait until he was done.
"I know all about her, it's not hard to stick pieces together" I told him, pushing him back a little bit.
"And I enjoy being Hokage, it's brought me joy. Something I haven't felt in a while because of you and Hinata" he growled and now we were in a shoulder lock with each other.
"I did nothing to you. I told her to chase you, you know this and yet she picked me" I said, trying to tighten my grip so his would ease up but it didn't work. He was seeing nothing but red right now and I understood that.
"Yes, I know she did and I'm glad. You both deserve each other. One selfish person for another. I'm over her" he gritted and tried to headbutt me but I moved my face out of the way but he managed to push me back and I was regretting being near the wall now. My back was against it and I was losing strength due to lack of space.
"Kakashi, you need to calm down," I said, trying to relieve tension. I dug this hole and now I was going to get out of it.
"No. I thought we were friends and you've kept something like this a secret, something I've had regret for almost my entire life has been walking around this entire time. You're nothing to me now and you will never get my trust back. So, the next time you speak freely, think again" he said and finally his forearm was against my throat. My head was back against the wall and I knew if he wanted to hurt me right now, he could. I had no defense left.
"If you're going to kill me, you should probably do when this house isn't full of people" I said, the air in my throat was hard to grasp but it was manageable.
"I'm not going to kill you. You're needed in this war. But, first" he spat, kneeing me in the ribcage. The air I had in me glided out and I wanted to cough but I couldn't because he didn't release his grip on me. As he slid his forearm off my neck, he grabbed the back of my neck and forcefully pushed me to the ground with all his strength. I felt like a small puppy that was being abused.
He moved away from me and I was surprised, I thought he was going to attack me again. But, instead he moved towards his desk and leaned against it.
"Are we the only ones who know of Obito?" he asked and I looked at him. I made myself up off the floor to glare at him.
"'Kisame knows" I told him.
"Has he known this entire time?" he asked me, looking really bothered by it and I nodded my head.
"Well, good thing he's going back to his own village then" he huffed and looked up at the ceiling. I knew Kakashi had a temper from the times I've worked with him but I never thought I'd be on the receiving end and now our friendship was nothing. That bridge was burned.
Kakashi made the hand seals again and the sound barrier left.
"You're all free to come back up!" Kakashi yelled and we waited for everyone. They moved rather quickly, the tension in the air became thicker and they could probably sense it.
"Are you two done bickering?" Hinata spoke, now wasn't the time for sass. I mentally slapped myself, I wasn't sure how Kakashi would react to her.
"Yes. We're good now. I've called you back up here to let you know a few more things and everyone is free" he spoke, a gleam in his eye appeared while looking at me.
"Neji when finished here, you are to report to anbu headquarters. Give everyone a briefing. Sasuke, I need you to go to each clan head to inform them of the matter. Hinata and Itachi, you are to gather whatever information you can on the eye of the moon plan.. You all need to report back here at five" he said, giving us all orders.
"Also, Hinata and Itachi. Once done here, you are to meet Kisame at the gates for six tonight to escort him home" he said, looking me in the eyes. Well, that's one way to get me out of the village.
"He's not supposed to leave the village" Hinata spoke, informing him of my past agreements.
"This is to be placed as an emergency. Doesn't matter" Kakashi said quickly, ignoring her statement. She knew to not say anything as it would be pointless.
"Are we all clear on the matter?" he said, looking around the room. We all shook our heads and I was the first one to leave the room. My anger was still radiating and I needed to get away from him. As I hit the floor at the bottom of the staircase, I felt a sharp pain in my ribs. He must have broken one. I hadn't noticed since I was running off of adrenaline.
Hinatas POV:
It was nearly five o'clock and Itachi and I were underground, underneath the old police station to be exact. I was in shock at how many tunnels and passageways there were down here. I knew his ancestors were probably rolling in their graves though, knowing someone that wasn't of their bloodline was seeing this.
"This is amazing" I said out loud, speaking for the first time in which felt like forever. Itachi hadn't been talkative since the sound barrier came undone in Kakashi's office. I wondered what they talked about..
"I guess" he said bluntly and continued walking and then finally I saw it. A giant rock with a Uchiha fan on it, something was behind it.
Itachi did some hand signs and then everything started shaking and I grabbed onto his arm, I wasn't sure what was happening but it felt like the entire place was going to crumble..
The rock was moving, not a lot but enough for us to squeeze into. Once we were inside, Itachi left me standing alone in the dark. It felt like forever but I knew only a few seconds went by. I heard him shuffling around and then a fire was lit. A wall torch, he moved to the other side, back into the dark and lit the other wall torch.
"How'd you know this was down here?" I asked in amazement, looking around. My eyes landed on a stone tablet, words were written on it and It was all written in a different language.
"Can you read that?" I asked Itachi, looking at him..
"Bits and pieces of it. I'm going to need Kakashi and Sasuke to see this for themselves. We don't have enough time to try and decipher it" Itachi said, staring at the tablet. "Don't want to anger him anymore.." itachi whispered but I heard him.
"What even happened earlier?" I asked, my curiosity got the better of me now. He glanced at me and didn't answer me. Instead he started backing away from the tablet slowly, a look on his face had me worried.
"What's the matter?" I asked, looking at the tablet again. I didn't know why I did not like the letters were suddenly going to change.
"Nothing" he deadpanned, turning his back so he didn't have to see the tablet and started heading towards the giant rock we entered from.
"Itachi, don't nothing me" I snapped at him, grabbing his wrist to make him stop. We stood there for a second before I took a step forward so I could face him. His head was down, I lifted his face with my hands and he looked like he wanted to cry.
"What is the matter with you, you went from angry to sad" I asked gently.
"These eyes are nothing but a curse.." he whispered and landed his head on my shoulder. I held him for a second, my confusion was at its peak. I still didn't understand what was happening.
"I see you've finally realized the truth" a male voice spoke from the doorway to leave her and I felt Itachis entire body tense up. I turned to see a man in a mask, that must be...
"I told you if anyone was to learn of that night, I would come for Sasuke" the guy said casually as he took a step forward, looking past us at the tablet.
"It's really a shame that tablet hasn't been destroyed. Now you know what my plan is" he spoke again, clicking his tongue at the end of his sentence. I moved Itachi's head off of my shoulder and activated my Byakugan so I could see better. I got a little lightheaded considering I wasn't supposed to use any chakra but what could it hurt if it was surrounding my eyes and not my injuries?
"Do you ever stop talking?" I asked him rudely. He turned to me, ready to laugh.
"You picked a good one, Itachi. Too bad she won't live very long in the war. She talks before she thinks" he said, chuckling. He didn't even know me and he assumed things. Little did he know my mind was as sharp and fast.
"Why are you really here? You won't be leaving with Sasuke, Obito" I growled at him, ready to fight. I knew I would lose considering the shape of my body but I was ready to anyways.
"What are you going to with a broken arm and.. Other things?" he said sceptically as he looked at me. He did my body a once over and I grew confused. Could he tell me back was fractured too?
"I will fight for my loved ones, no matter the state of my body" I said, taking a step toward him and he laughed at me.
"You know what? I like you. I'll leave Sasuke for now" he said, walking past me and then stopped at Itachi. We finally knew everything so why was Itachi still so scared of him? I turned to watch the two of them.
"You're lucky your girlfriend is here" he said, an inch away from Itachi's face and then it all happened too fast. I was happy that my byakugan was activated or I would've missed it. Itachi slammed Obito into the wall, a kunai pinned into his skin.
"Don't think you can just come into my home and threaten my family" Itachi growled, pushing the kunai into his throat.
"I was coming to claim what is mine," he said, choking a little bit and in a blink of an eye vanished right out from Itachi's grasp and then appeared from behind him. That's what they meant by him appeared and disappearing.
"But, since your lady here changed my mind. You win for the day" he said cautiously and before he left, he quickly picked up a rock and threw it at the stone, he put such a force behind it, the stone shattered. It was fixable but in pieces and then he was gone..
"How the hell are we going to put that back together?" I asked, walking over to the pieces, picking a few up and looking at them.
"He's going to pay" Itachi grumbled, grabbing my wrist and pulled me toward the door.
"But, the stone" I said as we slipped out of the small room.
"Leave it" he demanded and I said nothing else. I just let him angrily pull me along. We were walking faster than we were when we came in but I knew his fury was growing and I understood why. I had only interacted with Obito for two minutes and he irritated me to the fullest.
Once we reached the outside, he let my wrist go and we stood in the street. I repeated my movements like downstairs, I took a step in front of him to grab his face again. I cupped his face and his eyes were spinning slightly. The only thing I could think of as a distraction was to kiss him so that's exactly what I did.
Before I could pull away, he pulled me in closer. He finally let go and just held me.
"On our journey of bringing Kisame home, I'll fill you in on everything," he whispered to me and let me go, giving me a small smile. Well, at least I wasn't going to be confused anymore.
...
We were waiting for Kakashi to come back to his house so we could inform him of some things. We were sitting on his porch and of course he was late. I wondered where Neji and Sasuke were but I shrugged the thought away.
"You would think he would stop being late to everything," I said to Itachi and he nodded his head. Well.. I guess talking to him wasn't an option right now. My eyes wandered around the area. I never really looked at everything since Itachi and Sasuke restored everything and it looked really nice even though half of the district was gone due to Peins explosion.
"Sorry I'm late" Kakashi said from behind me and I jumped off the porch. He used his teleportation technique we all knew.
"You scared the life out of me!" I yelled in a playful voice as I stood up, my heart race slowing down.
"I didn't want to make you guys wait to long, you have a long journey ahead of you" Kakashi said told us and he glared at Itachi.
"We need to talk, now" Itachi deadpanned. What was with them? They were completely fine before the summit meeting. I couldn't wait to know everything, I hated being in the dark about things.
Kakashi said no more, opened the door and we all walked into the house and headed up the stairs to his office. We could have talked about it outside, no one was listening and I knew soon enough everyone was going to know about what was to come. Whatever it was.. Anyways.
"We found the stone tablet, stating what the eye of the moon plan is. But there's a problem" Itachi spoke, wasting no time.
"There's always a problem" Kakashi spoke, rolling his eyes. I was getting mad at them, they were acting like children.
"Can you two stop acting like children? We have a war coming and you guys are fighting over whatever it is" I barked at them, interrupting before Itachi and Kakashi could continue talking. They book looked at me, both looking confused.
"We're fine, Hinata" Kakashi told me and I knew it was a lie.
"Bullshit. I can still feel tension between you guys. Whatever it is you argued over earlier is insignificant to what is about to come. You guys are going to do more harm than good if you're mad at each other during a crucial time" I said, crossing my arms over my chest. I wasn't having it. Not now.
They both turned away from me and looked at each other again, just ignoring me.
"The problem I was trying to speak of, before we were interrupted" Itachi said, glancing at me from the corner of his eye.
"Obito appeared, ready to take Sasuke like he promised. Hinata stopped him but before he left, he destroyed the stone before I could fully understand it. But, I got a few words from it" he continued his sentence and Kakash'is eyes opened.
"He was in the village?" he asked, worry spread over his face.
"Yes, you've seen it. He can come and go anywhere he pleases" Itachi said. Its true, I couldn't even follow him with my byakugan but I did notice something when he teleported. He had waited to teleport, was there a time limit in between movements?
Kakashi slammed his fist on the table, very Tsunade like and it scared me slightly.
"He's always right under my nose" he mumbled but I heard him. I felt bad for Kakashi, my heart bled for him knowing something he hated himself for wasn't really true.
"Back to the stone.. The words I read. Tailed Beast, infinite tsukuyomi, tree." Itachi said and Kakashi wrote them down. Not that he would forget three words but it was probably better to really remember something like that.
"What does that even mean?" kakashi asked, confused.
"All I know is that our sharingans are a key role in this because of the infinite tsukuyomi part. I need to try and decipher it more but I don't have time" Itachi said again, emphasizing something we were tasked to do.
"You'll have time, when you return from the mist" Kakashi snapped, the tension quickly coming back.
"Speaking of that, we need to go, don't want to be late like somebody" I said, cutting between their conversation again, glaring at Kakashi. He smirked somewhat, well at least he was accepting of my jokes.
"Kakashi, I warn you. You need two sharingans to complete the infinite tsukuyomi. Watch yourself" Itachi warned before we turn our backs on him to head outside.
"You don't think Obito would come take Kakashi's eye, do you?" I questioned him when we got outside. We were walking toward our home to grab our bags, it was a good thing we packed before we did our research on the stone or we would be late meeting Kisame.
"Hes ruthless and doesn't care. So, yes, I do think he could for it. He could even take Sasuke's eyes if he wanted" Itachi said, shivering at the last part. I chill ran down my spine too, I understood their feeling of insecurity. My eyes were also special, anyone could take them and use them if they wanted.
As we got onto our front porch my mind started thinking.. Our eyes, a blessing and a curse.. Then it clicked. That's why Itachi said that in the stone room. I grabbed Itachis hand before we continued moving so he would look at me.
"I would never let him take any of your eyes. I know there's six of them left between all of you. I will guard the other five with my life. I know it's all that's really left of your family to pass down" I told Itachi, looking into his eyes so he knew I was serious and he smiled. An actual warm smile.
"Don't worry about my family's legacy but I appreciate your dedication" he said, brushing the hair off my of my face.
"Your family's legacy is now mine to protect too, don't you ever forget that" I said giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"I don't know what I did you deserve you but good kami I'm happy I have you," he said, grabbing my waist and hugging me from the back. I smiled when he nuzzled his face into my shoulder and we held each other for a second.
We let go of each other and I opened the front door, we didn't bother removing our sandles considering we were going to be leaving quickly. We made our way up the stairs and headed towards our bedroom.
I had moved back into Itachi's room slowly, we weren't dating yet but what was the point of sleeping in separate beds?
"I hope Kisame isn't already waiting" I said out loud, maybe it would get Itachi to finally talk.
"So what if he is?" Itachi asked, suddenly whispering in my ear and holding me from behind. He moved my hair out of the way and traield kissed down neck, to my jawline and slowly moved my face towards him giving me a deep kiss. I made a small moan, why did he always pick the weirdest times to get me going?
I could feel his tongue trying to poke its way in and I allowed it, his hands were moving slowly and his right hand made it down the front of my shirt, gently squeezing my breast and then he spun me around. He stopped kissing me and grabbed our bags.
"We need to get going!" he said in a happier tone and headed towards the door. Oh no he didn't..
"You're going to pay for that Uchiha!" I yelled after him and I could hear him laughing. A noise I hadn't heard in a while, it warmed my heart and I continued on with my smile as I made my way down the staircase and out the door. He waited for me on the porch.
"I can carry my bag you know" I told him, trying to take it off of him.
"I can handle two backpacks, don't worry about it" he said, refixing the bags as we took off toward the gates to Kisame.
..
We had stopped for camp for the night, we had been walking for five hours and the sun was already gone, midnight was approaching fast and tomorrow we had four hours left until we reached the boat that would lead us to the hidden mist. I hadn't been here since I left for that entire year.
"I gotta tell you guys something, it's been bothering me" Kisame said, my attention was all his in a heartbeat. He never kept something to himself and that's one thing about him I was going to miss.
"What is it?" I asked as we ate the rice I had packed us all for the night. Just until we reached Kisames village.
"Well, as you both know Obito is the one who recruited me for the Akatsuki, we had the same goal," he said, looking back and forth between Itachi and I. Neither of us said anything because we were waiting.
"Well earlier when Kakashi asked if we knew what the eye of the moon plan is, I never answered but I do know what it is. He told me in detail to get me to join and it seemed like a great idea at the time" Kisame said, scratching the back of his head. He knows? He knew this entire time?
"Why didn't you say anything earlier?" Itachi asked seriously, I looked back at Kisame, I hope his answer wasn't something that would make Itachi angry.
"You guys started arguing and Kakashi looked angry and then after you guys had your fight, I didn't bother to say anything because I knew it would just create more aggravation" he said honestly. My eye twitched a little bit knowing full well never cared about aggravating people, he lived for that so why didn't he speak up?
"We didn't have a fight" Itachi replied, literally ignoring everything Kisame just said. Kisame gave him a look, as did I.
"I'm not blind, Uchiha. I saw kunai stuck in the wall when we came back. I'm not dumb" Kisame deadpanned. There were kunai in the wall? Why didn't I see them?
"Fine, you caught me. We had a quarrel" he said, casually touching his side when he spoke. Did Kakashi hit him? I was curious now..
"Anyways, if you want. I can write down the details of the eye of the moon plan for you take back to Kakashi after you leave my island" Kisame said, taking a bite of rice.
"That would be helpful but is it safe to be traveling with that kind of information?" Itachi asked him.
"It doesn't really matter. We're going to war anyways and it's not like it's our information. It's the enemies" kisame said, shrugging.
"Yes, that may be true but if another enemy grabbed it. We're going to have to kill them and that's time consuming" Itachi said casually also taking a bite of his food. It slightly bothered me how casually they were talking about murdering people so openly. But, that's part of being a ninja.
"So Uchiha, how about a change of topic. What were you and Kakashi fighting about?" Kisame asked, going back to the same thing i had been wondering all day.
"Yeah, c'mon. You said you would tell me" I chimed in, poking his side gently and he flinched. So, he did get hurt.
"I said something that shouldn't of been said and he attacked me. We were screaming about useless things. He no longer trusts me and I poured salt into the wound heavily" Itachi told us the most vague answer ever. I wanted to push for details.
"What could you possibly of said that made him attack you? I've never seen that guy mad" Kisame retorted.
"You haven't been around long enough.." I mumbled, lifting Itachis shirt up while he ate. I wanted to see his side. I finally got his shirt off and his entire ribcaged was bruised and their was lump.
"You have a broken rib" I told him and I adjusted my body so I could fix his side a little bit.. And he grabbed my hands.
"You can't use chakra, stop. I'll have a hidden mist doctor look at it and to answer your question Kisame," Itachi spoke, moving my hands gently and putting his bowl on the ground in front of him.
"I told him he's mad about the fact that Rin isn't here, how Obito doesn't want to see him even though he's alive, how he hates being responsible so he hates being Hokage and that he's mad at the fact Hinata picked me.. And not him" he spoke and was hesitant about the last part and I just stared at him.
"But, he agreed with everything Sasuke said, and said Hinata is lucky because if it wasn't for her then I wouldn't be apart of the village. Hence why her and I are taking you home so I wouldn't be in the village. Now, we're all caught up. Anymore questions?" Itachi asked, sounding snappy.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked him, getting up off the ground. He got up after me and I turned on my heel.
"Do not follow me. You're rude, Itachi. That day for him was like the massacre for you. It's a touchy subject and you just rubbed it in. You also had no right to bring me into it" I hissed at him and walked into my tent, I needed alone time.
Itachis POV:
I sat back down in the same spot I had been sitting in and leaned against the log and started looking at the fire. Why was everyone against me today? I didn't understand.
"Well, this feels like old times. Except this time we're not wanted criminals" Kisame spoke, trying to break the tension. I smirked a little bit and a small laugh came out. He was right.
"You're right and I think this is the closest you and I have ever been to your home" I added to the conversation, maybe talking about something else was a good idea. Today had been nothing but one fight and surprise after another and I was done with it.
I tried really hard to keep the happy thoughts coming but nothing was working considering the day of events had. I was starting to feel about the fight with Kakashi but I wasn't going to say sorry, my pride wouldn't let me. Then the thing with Obito, what kind of man am I? I was frozen in place out of fear and Hinata stood up for me. What if he hurt her? My blood boiled just thinking about it but everything was fine.. Obito was also being really weird around Hinata too, why? His comment was repeated in my mind again.. What did he mean 'other things?'..
"Itachi, your lost in thought" Kisame said, grabbing my attention again.
"Yeah, sorry. A lot has happened today and its just a lot to process" I said in a low tone, it had only been ten minutes since Hinata went in the tent but for all I knew she was sleeping and I didn't want to wake her.
"I get it, I've been around for most of it. But, we should head to bed. It's getting late and we still have a lot of traveling to do. I hope you don't get seasick" Kisame spoke, getting up from the ground.
"I've never been on a boat, I hope I don't" I said honestly also getting up from the ground.
"This should be fun, I can't wait" Kisame spoke, laughing loudly. His laugh echoing throughout the woods. He put the fire out and we went our separate ways. Kisame went into his own tent and I hesitated to go into mine. Why was I hesitating? It's not like she was going to hurt me. I silently walked in, I laid down next to her and closed my eyes and then everything from the past few years started to flood my mind.
"Itachi? You okay? You're breathing heavy" Hinata asked quietly, touching my face. Was I crying? I hadn't even noticed I was.
"I guess so.." I whispered as I wiped a tear from the right side of my face.
"What's the matter..?" she asked, sounding concerned. Their was barely any light inside the tent, I could barely see her but I knew she was close.
"What isn't the matter? I've upset you, I'm a horrible brother, I'm a bad friend, we're going to war for kamis sake" I said in a rushed sentence, just rambling at this point. I felt myself slipping, just letting everything get the better of me like the night Sasuke saved me. What was even the point?
"You need to take a deep breathe," she said in a hushed tone as she started stroking the hair on my head attempting to calm me. I tried and all it did was trigger more tears. I felt like the more air I took in, the deeper the wound was opening.
I could hear her shifting and then I felt her straddle me and then pulled me up so we were sitting face to face.
"Listen to me" she said, inches away from my face. I guess it was a good thing it was dark in here, that way she couldn't see all the tears spilling out. When did I become an emotional mess? At least when I was in the Akatsuki I had a hardened mask on, I didn't let any affect me. Not even Hinata when I saw her for the first time in two years.
"You're sinking again and I'm not letting it happen. You only upset me because it was rude to say, it's okay though. Kakashi has accepted it, he's the one who ended it, really. You're also not a bad friend either, you guys had a fight, it happens. Neji and I fought all the time. You've seen them and look, him and I are fine" she spoke softly to me as she kept moving the hair out of my face to keep it still.
"You're not a horrible brother either. Sasuke doesn't realize everything you've done, you've done for him. Neither of you would be here if you didn't do it. He'll realize it one day, he's just upset because he thought there was a chance of having more family but the idea got taken away from him" he said, placing a gentle kiss on my cheek. The tears still wouldn't stop. I know she was trying and she was making really valid points but I just needed to get it out. The sunshine always comes after a storm.
I grabbed her hands and just held them and I put my head on her chest. The more I took in her scent, it was calming me down. It was something Shizune had taught me. When I was upset, find a certain scent and associate it with happiness, deceive my brain that I was safe, I suppose. I did that when she left, I would smell the white lilies and lilacs in the garden. It helped for a long time and I stopped when I thought I was strong enough. I was strong for a while until all this drama unfolded. All because Sasuke found a folder. Who knew a folder would ruin someone's life?
"Itachi? Are you okay?" Hinata asked, taking me back to reality. I lifted my face from her chest and grabbed her face in my hands and gave her a thank you kiss. I hope that's what it conveyed. Even when she isn't talking, she helps me. The thoughts were still in my brain but at least not I could think logically and hopefully not fall back into emotional turmoil for a while.
"I think before we fight Obito and whatever weapons he has, I'm going to talk to Shizune and Ibiki, fight in a clear mind" I told her after I broke the kiss away.
"I think that's a great idea," she said, wrapping her arms around my neck to pull me in for a hug.
"I can't have an emotional breakdown on the battlefield, it'll get me killed" I said and I could feel her nodding her head.
"What even triggered this?" she asked, sounding curious.
"I have no idea, it just happened.. I feel a little better though" I admitted and kissed her again.
"I'm happy and please, listen to me when I speak. You're none of those things you said. I know everyones been yelling at you all day but it's far from the truth" she spoke again, kissing me again. I nodded my head, I didn't feel like speaking anymore. I needed one more final distraction.
I wrapped my arms around her lower waist and deepened the kiss. I knew what I started earlier needed to be finished and I knew she wanted it.
I could feel her moving her arms, she was taking her shirt off. The feeling of her soft warm skin touched my hands and I only wanted her more. Before I could move my hands toward the front of her, she stopped kissing me and ripped my shirt off. I must have really got her going, she's never been this aggressive.
She continued kissing me, using her tongue to deepen kiss and slowly pushed me back onto the ground.
"Are you going to be okay? Your back" I asked her, before we continued.
"My back is the last thing on my mind" she seductively said as she moved her mouth away from mine, she gave me small kisses along my jawline. As she worked her way down she continue to give small love bites and licked my collar bone which I admit, completely turned me on and I wanted her but I wasn't trying to stop her from doing what she was going.
In the process of kissing me everywhere, she was taking my pants off and I helped her a little bit by wiggling my hips. She took them off along with my underwear and here I was now completely naked.
Her kisses found their way to my hardened length, my hips bucked in the ever slightest and it was a clear signal she was doing a great job and I oh so badly wanted to give back the pleasure I was receiving. I moaned a little bit while she was down there and I could feel myself getting closer but I didn't want to go yet.
I think she knew I was close because she stopped playing with my length with her tongue and made her way back up my body. I quickly flipped us over, she was now on the blankets and it was my turn to tease her.
"No, I want you, right now" she damn near purred in my ear and it sent a chill down my spine. I grinned and I knew she couldn't see me. This was the perfect time.
"Okay" I said in the same voice. As I made my way down to her pants, I unclasped her bra, I again will forever be grateful that the clasp was in the front. I undid her pants and took them off, leaving her now naked. I wasn't going to listen to her though, I knew what I wanted to do to her. I opened her legs with my hands and quickly started kissing her thighs. She wasn't escaping this.
I ran my tongue over her clit and her back arched a little bit, she was already wet and I hadn't even done anything. I smiled slightly and let my tongue go aways. She started moaning and pretty loudly. I hoped Kisame wasn't awake or he was about to hear everything. I figured five minutes down here was enough time and got into position.
"Stop teasing me" she growled, lighting pulling on my hair. I smirked knowing we were finally in the same position or ecstasy and weakness.. I didn't even give her a warning, just dove right in there and she gasped and before I knew it, our moans were in sync but I withheld mine a bit because hearing hers drove me mad.
I hoped you guys liked this, it was all over the damn place.
Also, we are getting very close to the war starting, just doing a few more little things and the fun shall begin.
