(Warning: If you don't like the sound or the sight of Itachi screaming like a little schoolgirl, then please, turn back now and come back next chapter.)

" WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Itachi yelled in a more than threatening fashion towards our three little nin-heroes, who were backed against the wall.

Pfft. Some much for heroes if they can't even stand up to Itachi, one of the most evil, devious villains who was now staring maliciously at the children, his onyx eyes engulfed in flames of what was more than murderous anger and intent.

" We are, or were trying to play, Itachi!" replied Sasuke, but as he walked forward, he slipped on a extremely familiar looking, circular container that had once contained Itachi's sprinkles and fell back into Naruto who, in turn, fell back into Sakura, who hit her head off the wall.

(:O! Oh-no! I hope it didn't make her lose some precious, precious brain cells that she might need to annoy and show someone up with someday!)

Sasuke scampered (Sasuke scampers?! Whoa! /takes out notepad/ Gotta write this down! ) to his feet, quickly pulled the other two nin-heroes to their feet, and together, they ran down the hall.

Itachi dashed off behind them, though being extremely in dodging all the precious, irreplaceable, expensive family heirlooms and breakable antiques that were, coincidentally, in that EXACT hallway at that time. But Itachi skidded to a stop. They were nowhere in sight. Where'd they go?

Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura tip-toed silently out of the room they'd jumped into to dodge the evil, older brother Lord Itachi.

" Shhh!!" hushed Sasuke, putting a finger to his lips. " We gotta be real quiet and not bang into…" Ah. Too late. Sasuke's attempt in making his nin-team mates run into one of the precious, irreplaceable, expensive family heirlooms failed… and HORRIBLY!

Sasuke knocked one, which was resting on a marble table, off and it fell towards the hardwood floor. (Slow motion effect)

" N-ooo!!" cried Sasuke, in slow motion, trying to dive for the heirloom. But, you know, only the Matrix could help him now, and well… he didn't know anything about The Matrix. So… you can guess what happened.

But maybe the heirloom knew something about slow motion, though it was an inanimate object. As it hit the floor, and shattered before Sasuke's horrified eyes, the sound of the shattering echoed and echoed and echoed through the many empty hallways and rooms of the Uchiha Home.
Not only did it echo through the home, the shattering noise echoed though Itachi's head over and over and over again.

Sasuke's mouth dropped open as he sifted his fingers through the remnants of the precious, irreplaceable, expensive family heirloom that was in pieces on the floor. " Well… it doesn't look that bad, Sasuke-kun," said Sakura, kneeling beside him.
" Nah, not bad at all…" said Naruto in an all but happy voice as he took a few steps back. " but I think your bro thinks otherwise, Sasuke…"
Naruto tapped Sasuke on the shoulder, making him stand up and turn around.

Itachi was standing, his arms hung, his mouth agape as his eyes were unbrokenly fixed on the shattered precious, irreplaceable, expensive heirloom. Hey, did I mention that it was expensive?

" Heh-heh-heh…heeeeeeh..." Sasuke laughed weakly in a sweatdrop. " H-Hi Itachi…. My special, loving, forgiving, not-gonna-tell-mom-and-dad about this, older brother Itachi…!"

Itachi still just stood there, staring at the floor at the broken, shattered, itty-bitty pieces to the broken heirloom.

Sasuke walked up, waving a hand infront of Itachi's face. " Umm I-tach-i… earth to Itachi…? Are you with me, Itachi?" He smirked, laughing slyly. nn

" Heh-heh! Itachi's out of it, guys! We're home free!"

He put his hands behind his head, whistling as he walked back to Naruto and Sakura. If. If he wasn't interrupted. By the most disturbing thing Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura, our little nin-heroes, would ever, EVER hear in their whole lifetimes in Konoha.

" LIKE, OH MY GOD, SASUKE!!! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?"

Outside somewhere, Shikamaru fell out of his " sleeping tree" we'll call it. He rubbed his eyes, kneeling up.

" Man…" he yawned, stretching his arms. " what was that…? I was sleeping… and I was awakened by some… girly voice...saying Sasuke's name..?"

He narrowed his eyes. " I'm concerning myself with this…. why? I'm going back to sleep, and hopefully, not getting involved with such matters again."

(Ahhh… there's our good old, smart, little Shika-chan! Always using big words after finishing his daily reading of the dictionary…. that's our Shika!)

Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke all stared at Itachi with completely wide eyes.
Itachi pulled his hands over his mouth quickly, his face going red.

Sasuke held in his laughter tears. " I.. Itachi… you-you-you…."
The nin-heroes look at each other and fell to the floor, hands over their stomachs, laughing as hard as they could.

Itachi stood in placed, twitched slightly and then raised his voice.

" IF YOU THREE DON'T SHUT UP RIGHT NOW, I'LL TAKE THOSE LITTLE SHARDS AND STAB THEM THROUGH YOUR EYES AND STOMACHS AND ARMS AND THEN I'LL BE LAUGHING OVER YOUR MANGLED, BLOODY BODIES ONCE MORE!!!" Itachi smiled. " I'm using the shards because I don't have any kunais on hand, and Sakura, this is my first threat to you right?"

Sakura nodded. " Right. And you know, using glass shards is less painful than kunais so…. SHUT UP OR DIE!!"

(A/N: Sakura had so much courage back then… what the hell happened?)

Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke nodded in harmony. " Y-Y-Yes'm."

" Good." Itachi turned, folding his arms. " And now, you stay there while I think up your… huh?" He turned back around.

The nin-heroes had taken off and were now nowhere in sight.

" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!! GET BAAACK HEERE!!!!"

Shikamaru, once again, fell out of his tree. He narrowed his eyes, pushing his glasses back into place.

(Yeah, Shikamaru has glasses as a kid. Sorry if that just destroyed anything you thought was good about Shikamaru, but… our fic, our rules.)

" Alright, alright. I've tolerated this enough for one hour. That's it. They're gonna get a piece of my mind!" Shikamaru looked up to the clouds.

" Well… maybe after a short gaze at the clouds…" He leant back against the tree with a sigh and watched the clouds.

Sasuke and his fellow nin-heroes were running away from the fuming Itachi, praying that somehow, someway, Itachi would find it in his evil, evil heart to spare their lives. Then again, Itachi WAS extremely evil and DID eventually kill his family so… maybe not.

Itachi muttered to himself silently before coming up with a plan so ingenious, that he himself couldn'tve thought it up.

But well… he thought it up, so he had to have thought I himself, so basically, forget everything that last sentence that I just typed.
It makes no sense.

(Uchiha Sasuke Sharingan: Yeah she rambles on at times"/ sakuraneoneo: I…. Hate… you….)

Naruto was the only observant one as they went down the empty hall. He gazed at Itachi's door momentarily before running to catch up with Sakura and Sasuke.

" Oi, Sasuke, umm…" He thought for a minute. " what does 'Red rum' mean?"

Sasuke shrugged his shoulders. " Meh. Why should I know?"

As they rounded the corner, they ran into each other as Itachi was before them, wearing a hockey mask and holding the fuma shuriken over his head.

" H-eeeeeeeeeeeeere'sss I-taaaaaaaaachi!!!!"

Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke all screamed at the top of their little ninja lungs.
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! MURDER!!!!" cried Sasuke, pointing to Itachi's door, and said Itachi was laughing like a homicidal maniac.

" THAT. IS. IT!!" Little Shikamaru declared as he fell out of his tree once more.

" I will NOT tolerate anymore naptimes interrupted this day! YOU HAD YOUR CHANCES, BUT N-OOO!!! You just have to go and interrupt Shikamaru's sleeping time!" Shikamaru growled.

" And for this, you will pay dearly!"

He ran inside his house, picking up the phone and successfully dialing a number.

" I'mgonnadieI'mgonnadieI'mgonnadie…" muttered Naruto, running around in little circles.

" Thaat's ri-ghtt…." Began Itachi, raising the huge-to-the-nin-heroes fuma shuriken over his head. " NOW TIME TO DI….!!"

The ring of the doorbell once again, interrupted Itachi. He ripped the mask from his face, his eyes narrowed in an unimpressed fashion.

" Curses. Foiled again by… the… doorbell…" he muttered to himself. " Alright, doorbell, you just made. My. List…."
