Sasuke leans against the wall exhaling smoke into the crisp nights fresh air. He listened to the conversation taking place inside with the young man who traded looks with him on his way in. His ears tuned in after hearing Itachi's name. Sasuke now was confused and still a bit bewildered. His thoughts still unanswered. 'Why must people still talk Ill of us? Life was to complicated for you to settle, right?' Sasuke felt that he really shouldn't doubt his brother, last time he did, he was wrong. "What seems to be isn't and what isn't is. Living like Alice.." Shinedown plays in his head. The one song he remembered well besides Numb by Linkin.
His head was tilted up towards the starlit sky, the moon highlighted his strong Uchiha features and complemented his eerie mood. He might as well figure out who this chick is and ask her who the dad is.
Meanwhile back at Amaya's:
The sink was full of dishes to be rinsed, the dryer was full of clothes to be folded and the floor had dirt to be swept. All this was pushed aside when Amaya made it a little late to the toilet because Iashi made her reject the fruit salad she shoveled down. In disgust she threw off her clothes into the laundry, grabbed the dry coffee grounds and shook it on her vomit. The coffee grounds covered the smell and would dry it up so she could sweep it later. She waddled to the bath she began to draw. Perhaps it will help with her sore ankles and body aches. With great caution she stepped into the amazingly warm water .. she sighed laying her head back against the wall. She drifted off into a sleep.
Kakashi back at the Ramen restaurant was leaving after having an interesting conversation with this new kid about his mother. He was just getting back from his year long mission, words couldn't explain how psyched he was to be on his way home. He talked of his family, told Kakashi a couple things he didn't know about his father and best friend. His heart was much like his moms and dads..
The young adult probably went through a week full of dishes eating. Kakashi wished he would luck all the rest of the test he will be put through as a shinobi "I'll see you around then," he stepped out, breathing the fresh breeze blowing through the trees. Kakashi couldn't believe how much that guy could talk… "Alright Sasuke. I'll see you tomorrow." he looked towards the bench to see it empty. He scratched his head, "I'll just talk to myself then.." Kakashi mumbled.
Amaya wakes up to her front door opening. She drains the tub and gets out to dry off while suspense fills the atmosphere, or while it fills her. A familiar voice calls out her name. Amaya rushes out with a towel to see if her guess is right.. "I..Itachi Kun! I missed you! Where have you been? I've been worried sick!" A facial expression of shock. She kissed his cheek longingly, his face flushed pink and his eyes widened. 'I kind of.. like this...' he thought, 'Focus! Remember what you're here to do.' shaking away the mixed feelings he shoes her off to get clothes on.
Amaya ran off into the bedroom to throw on some clothes. Meanwhile Sasuke, disguised as his dead brother was waiting on the couch for her...
Naruto realized how late it was getting, Sakura as well. "So your name is Shichi? You are Amaya's oldest? And Shisui's son." Naruto asked to make sure he heard Shichi correctly.
Shichi nodded slowly with his mouth full of sushi. Sakura stood up from the bar stool to leave. She yawned with exhaustion. "Amaya was a young mother, must've been hard to do it on her own." Sakura stated.
"Yeah," Naruto said, remembering he didn't have a mother or father to help him. Getting up, Naruto feels his heart ache in loneliness. He stretched his arms, tried to shrug it off leaning on the bar, " Unbelievable, Itachi as a dad as well? "
Shichi shoved his mouth with more sushi. He didn't know if he should feel bad or not for letting Naruto talk about him like that. Either way he swallowed his food and Uchiha pride to say at least something before they left, "Actually," he held his finger up to make a point. "Itachi helped mum knowing I was his best friend's kid. Itachi wasn't all that bad.." Shichi felt his stomach flip when he said that, his clan would still be here if it wasn't for Itachi and that stupid Donzo. Maybe there was still a bit of jealousy when it came to Sasuke.. " I don't care for Itachi, even if he did help mom." Naruto and Sakura had dumbfounded expressions on their face. 'Go figure' ones to be exact. "If my mother was in the village the time of the Slaughter, I would not be here." Sakura and Naruto gasped in distraught. "I'll talk more with you tomorrow, I'll let you both go," they nodded and left. Shichi payed for his food and conversed with the cook for a bit. He soon would be off to a motel near by.
