Last Chapter:

For Naruto is Mine…

And…

MINE ALONE

Mine Alone

A Yang Production

Call it love…call it Lust…Call it an obsession…call it what ever your heart desires, but for me, I wanted Naruto. I could not get him out of my mind…recalling his face and his smile sent shivers thought out my body. His voice called forth a moan from my lips. His soft touch on my cold skin sent life jolting through me once more. He was my breath of fresh air in this dark living world. He was light in my blindness. And he will be mine! Therefore I could not let anything stand in my path! First I got rid of Orochimaru who dare beckon me to his side. Now…oh now it was Itachi's blood that I hunger for. To see that lovely life giving liquid run freely from his body…the thought gave me pleasure.

To say that tracking him down was hell wasn't giving enough credit. Orochimaru-san was…difficult to say the least. I toiled over mission logs and reports. I studied his past as a proud Shinobi, and I would do and did the same for the Weasel! He liked to stay in the shadows…guess what?

SO DID I.

In a lone cave far out from the Leaf Village I found him. His face showed no emotion…always set like stone. Emotions are for the weak no? Then am I weak to love? No. I love therefore I am strong.

" What business do you have young one?" He asked.

" I've come seeking you." My answer was sharp.

His reply? A small smirk. " Now why?"

" You betrayed Konoha!"

" That I did. So what? That village had nothing for me, always restraining me. I could not grow if I was being smothered. I could not evolve if I had not room to spread."

" And so to spread you killed the clan right?"

" Yes, they merely were a measure of my greatness. And you young one? Have you come here seeking my death?"

My lips curled into a evil smile. " Will you kill me Itachi-san if I reply yes?"

" No…" He sighed staring at the small dying fire before him. " I must kill you anyway."

" Fine…dead snakes can not lie I must say." I caught his interest. With speed I've studied he had me up against the wall, his pale fingers encircling my thin neck.

" What do you know of Orochimaru's death?" His voice was dripping with venom. That voice that I wanted to silence for eternity. His lips spilling out words and sounds that soon would cough up blood and beg for my mercy.

" He's dead…and I must say that he wasn't as lively as you Itachi-san. He did not greet me as you have." In his eyes there was a fire burning with questions and always with the desire to kill.

" You? A young one like you had the power and strength to kill that snake?"

" Yesss." I flicked out my tongue like that snake had done. " I do." His right hand balled up as he brought it back and swung at my stomach. I lurched forward and coughed up some blood. My body fell to the ground again as he walked away.

" Heh." Taking my right hand I wiped the blood off. " How does it feel to know that the only one who truly feared you is gone? How does it feel to know that the one who killed him is right here…talking to you…breathing the same air as you…living in the same world as you?" I could see his shoulders twitch slightly, almost to the point of not being visible.

" Young one," I straightened. " you are an idiot to think I am as weak as that snake. He and I are on different levels."

" I know Itachi-san. That is how you were able to kill off the Clan. Do you really find me that stupid? Has it ever occurred to you that I have studied and developed beyond what I was that dreadful day? I am no mere weakling like yourself, I am stronger now that I have a NEW dream to live for."

" What pray tell might that new dream be?" We stood facing each other, only the crackling of the fire echoed off the walls.

" To protect Naruto from people like you!" I lunged at him blindly I must admit. He swung his arm and I fell to the floor, a pain going down my spine. My eyes adjusted after the blow and his eyes bored into me with those advance Sharingan.

" In your state you can not come to harm me, there is not enough hate in you to do the job."

" There is plenty of hate, Itachi-san." Just step closer and we'll see who has the upper hand.

Step. " For a pathetic worm like you," Step. " I don't need to bloody my hands." Step. Closer moron. Come closer. I struggled to my feet. There was a flashing of gray as he pulled out a handful of Shuriken from inside his cloak. Step.

" May I ask you something?"

He remained silent as he continued to walk ever so slowly towards me. I took that as a yes.

" Why is it that when one falls in love with another, they do the most extreme to protect them?" The ground beneath Itachi cracked and my Earth clones popped up and dragged him down till only his head remained. My hand stretched out in front of me and I closed my hand till I could see the pain on his face.

" Comfortable Itachi?"

" Brat!" He hissed. " Do not anger me!"

" No, do not anger me!" Thin silver rods pierced his eyes, ending his vision of this world and allowing him to see death. " To think you would fall for such a low trick. I had so many plans for you Itachi! I wanted to toy with you…to play and get bored." I plucked the needles from his eyes and fingered the so called Advance Sharingan. " Seems like my new toy is no fun at all…No matter." A chuckle escaped my lips as I pulled his now lifeless eyes off my needles and threw them into the fire. It burned bright green and flared up. The cool rod trailed against my lips as I savored his blood. Grabbing a hand full of his hair, I jerked him up so he could see me…My bad, so he could HEAR me.

" I love to have fun, but you…there's no point in keeping you in this state." I brought his face close to mine. " I wonder how you taste, my dear Itachi." My lips met his and I must say, he was delicious. Yearning for more, I forced his mouth open and explored with my own tongue. Had it not been for lack of air, surely I would have continued. Yet seeing the blood flow from his empty eye sockets paid for all of that. Tossing him aside, I reached for my bag that I had brought along. Inside where an assortment of fun little toys…err tools that I wanted to try out on his body.

" Trying to crawl away, Itachi-san?" Hearing his scuffles did not worry me, without eyes what could hurt me? Not his Clones that he made while my back was turned. Each one was buried in earth as my own dragged them to the pits of hell. Fire was no opponent, as I easily dodged and used Suiton Suijinheki that I had learned from the scrolls of the 2nd Hokage. Without eyes to analyze the battle, he was dead.

" You know I don't like toys that won't amuse me, and do you know what happens to my tossed toys?"

" You kill them?" His voice was strangely weak for someone of his power.

" Why no, my dear Itachi-san! Heavens why flat out kill them…" My instruments in hand I pinned him to the cave wall. "…when I can peel off their flesh square inch by square inch and listen to them beg for me to kill them?" He bit his bottom lip as I ripped off his cloths like a child would rip off the wrapping of a gift. " Such flawless skin." My hands ran over his chest. " It's such a pity that it must come off." Beginning, I never knew such joy. His every cry, his every plea I ignored, just like he ignored the will of Naruto. Oh, Naruto, the things I do for you!

Walking out of the came I washed off in a near by river, and holding my prize in a small bundle under my arm I walked towards the warm sun. It took a while to reach the building, but it was worth while when the ANBU guards began to chase me after I left the bundle at the door step. Idiots! I know this town better than you!

To the Hokage,

I come bearing a gift!

The fur of a Weasel,

Now dead and forgotten!

Tsunade stared at the paper, the 17 words written out in blood. Wanting to avoid a scene like last weeks, she ordered that the mass of cloth be brought to an empty room. By the time it arrived the once white cloth now resembled a mass of crimson. Something dripped from the loose ends, she looked at the Shinobi present and opened it. There came a soft murmur of confusion as they looked. A soft pile of…what? That's what everyone wanted.

" Hokage-sama!" A guard cried bursting into the room. " We just got this note! It says to go to the Northern Mountains, there we'll find a trail that will lead us to a cave were we will find an answer to the mass that is inside the cloth!"

" Send out your best ANBU team, and report back what ever you find. Kakashi!" Her eyes never left the pile of whatever it was on the table.

" Yes, Hokage?"

" I want you to lead the team. God knows who this is and what they might do to the team alone!"

" Yes! We'll be back with a report in no time at all!" In a puff of smoke 9 people were gone.

A few days passed by and they finally reached the Northern Mountains. A ribbon was tied to a tree.

" This seems to be the trail." Kakashi pointed to the line of ribbons leading to a cave. Once they reached it, a foul odor caused everyone to stop.

" What died?" Someone asked. Kakashi pulled a handkerchief to his nose and walked in to the cave. Coming back out he gave a reply to the question.

" Itachi, that's who. Inside…he's pinned to a wall and he's dead. I need you to get him down so we can bring back his body to Hokage." The team did as they were told, and secretly brought Itachi back to the village.

Official Report.

Mission: To retrieve the other half of the mass that was delivered to us on the 23rd of the 4th month.

Notes: We arrived to the spot stated in the note. Upon arrival of the cave, a smell drifted out and entering, the body of Uchiha Itachi was found. He was pinned at the hands and feet to the cave wall, with nothing on. His skin, it seems had been peeled off, slowly, and it seems that he had been there for several days due to parts of his body missing later found, half eaten by the wild animals. Even more, examining closer, both eyes were torn out of their sockets some time earlier. No trace of the killer or weapons could be found. Attached to the body was a note. We have enclosed it with this report.

Like I said, Naruto will not be touched!

Likewise, do not let harm come to him.

I will be watching.

For this town's sake,

I warn you Hokage,

Guard him,

My love,

My life,

My Naruto.

Tsunade closed the folder and walked over to a sink and began to scrub furiously at her hands. Putting together what they had, one thing was missing from Itachi, His lips. Same went for Orochimaru, except his missing part was his long grotesque tongue.

"Baa-san?" A voice called out.

" It's Hokage." She replied as she dried her hands. " Come in Naruto."

" What ever it is, I didn't do it!" Already he got defensive.

" No, that's not it. We'll talk about that later." She narrowed her eyes as Naruto let out an uncomfortable laugh. " What did you do? Never mind. Naruto, would you mind if you stayed with Iruka-san for a few days?"

" No!" A gleeful smile was plastered on his face.

" Good, because starting today I need you to stay with him. By now your stuff should be at his place. Iruka, come in!"

The black haired Sensei stepped inside and gave Naruto a loving smile.

" He's all yours Iruka-san. Everyone knows you're the only one who can tame him. Everyone else gets exhausted to the brink of death, myself included." She leaned back in her chair and placed an arm over her eyes. " Take him Iruka, I have a lot to do today."

" I get to live with Iruka-sensei! I get to live with Iruka-sensei!" His overjoyed voice bounced off the walls as both, student and teacher exited the building.

" When is there never a medical nin when I need one?"

Outside, in a tree, I sat and watched Naruto walk next to Iruka. His smile made me fall more in love with him than ever before. His happiness is what kept me in check. I climbed down and walked around before heading to my home, or at least my safe house. Taking a jar out of my jacket, I placed it next to the other one. One long snake tongue…and the lips of a ferret. Sliding the wall shut, I step back and make sure that there are no cracks to show that there is anything beyond the wall. My list has been completed and I lie in wait to make sure that no harm come to my Beloved.

" Naruto…I want you…I need you…I will have you!" I moaned clutching a picture to my chest. Now let us see what this week brings us…shall we?

Yang-chan: This is WAY longer than the first chapter…but that's how it is. Tell me what you think. Note! I will not take any request because there are certain characters that I can not kill off, and I have a list made of who will die and how they will die…unless anyone wants to give me ideas of how a death should be dealt! Arigato! (bow)
