Naruto Primer Lost Chapter: Itachi/Kisame

Roller Blades

There wasn't ONE particular person who requested this chapter. Everyone was kind of questioning as to the whereabouts of Itachi, including ourselves. He certainly hasn't made an appearance in a while so we were starting to feel deprived. We knew that problem was easily fixed.

"And then the guy said, 'I was talking to the duck!'" Kisame said in his best punch-line voice. Then he erupted into hysterical laughter. Itachi had heard the joke a thousand times so he only stared at Kisame crossly. After Kisame calmed down and wiped a tear from his eyes, he sighed. "Good times."

After another pause, Kisame finally asked, "So…what are we going to do?"

"I don't care." Said Itachi, putting his hands in his pockets.

"Oh!" said Kisame, hitting his fist into his palm. "I know! Have you ever roller bladed before?"

"I have." Said Itachi.

"Really?!" said Kisame. "Because I've never done it before! You can teach me!"

Itachi only stared at Kisame.

"Anyway…what are we going to do today?" he said.

"I just said!" said Kisame. "Let's go roller blading!"

"Oh, I thought that was just another one of your random comments." Itachi confessed.

They went into the shop and had NO trouble at all renting roller blades even though they're evil and stuff. Of course, they also rented all the proper protective equipment too just in case they fell over! Getting useless scrapes and bruises would just suck.

"Help me up!" said Kisame, holding out his hands. Itachi glared at Kisame as if DARING him to ask for help again. So Kisame struggled to get up on his own but ended up tumbling over.

Itachi only watched and decided to observe him getting up on his own.

"I'll get it right!" said Kisame who was fine since he was wearing all the correct protective equipment.

"Is this really such a good idea?" Itachi said as he watched Kisame attempt to get himself to his feet.

"It does feel rather strange." Kisame said. "Both of us being the evil people we are and doing something as insane as roller blading. Oh well! It's fun!"

Kisame crawled over to the ground so he was off the pavement and stood up that way. "There!" he said, feeling proud of himself. He stepped on to the pavement with one skate and was immediately sent head over heels and landed right on his back. "Ow!" he said.

Itachi shook his head and rolled his eyes.

After a little while of Kisame finally figuring out how it was done, the two of them skated off. Of course, they didn't get very far.

"I'm gonna fall!!!" Kisame yelled, flailing his arms around and then tumbling into a bush on the side of the path.

Itachi came to a stop and turned around to watch him get out.

"Itachi, I am SO embarrassed." Said Kisame as he got out of the bush.

"I can tell." Said Itachi. "How about we just do something else?"

"No!" said Kisame. "I'll learn how to do this!"

"You're going to end up killing yourself before you learn." Itachi said truthfully.

"I'm getting it!" Kisame insisted, standing up and steadying himself. "Do you have any tips for me?"

"From now on, instead of skating into a bush, just skate forward." Itachi advised.

"OH!" laughed Kisame even though he was secretly offended. Then he got distracted. "LOOK! That child up there is selling lemonade! Let's buy some!"

It took them a good five or so minutes to finally reach the pleasant child who had a makeshift little lemonade stand. "Twenty-five cents for a cup!" said the kid.

Kisame felt around in his pockets for his wallet only to find that he… couldn't find it! "Hey Itachi, did you think you could loan me fifty cents so I buy some lemonade for the both of us?" he asked.

"Whatever." Said Itachi, pulling fifty cents out of his flowery cloak. They gave the child the money and skated off. When they had gone a little way, Itachi finally took a sip of the lemonade and spat it out, looking disgusted.

"Is something the matter, Itachi?" Kisame asked.

"This…is VILE!" said Itachi as he started hacking slightly. "I can't believe that child charged us MONEY for this!! I…am SO offended!!"

"Kill him, Itachi!!" cheered Kisame, pulling out some pom poms. "Kill him!"

"I WILL!" said Itachi as he kicked off his roller blades and started marching back over to the lemonade stand.

"YAAAAAAAY!!" cheered Kisame as he jumped around foolishly but then slipped on his skates and landed on his arse. Then he noticed some people walking by and turned around to see… Kiba and Naruto!! "ITACHI!!" he yelled.

"WHAT?" Itachi said, turning around.

"It's THEM!" said Kisame, pointing to Kiba and Naruto. "I thought you killed them!"

Itachi looked slightly confused. He could have sworn he had killed them too.

"Very well…" he said, stomping in the other direction and taking off his helmet and kneepads and elbow pads and wrist protection and all the other padding equipment he was wearing.

Of course, it didn't take long for Kiba and Naruto to notice that Itachi was pursuing them.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" they screamed dramatically instead of running away as fast as they could.

Kisame couldn't help but chuckle warmly. Itachi was just so crazy when he was angry.
