My Trust in You

Chapter Six- Something Amiss

Two days passed quickly. The moon hung in the sky, its light illuminating the small houses in Konoha.

Amaya shot up in bed, cold sweat running down her face. She looked around, studying her surroundings quickly. Her breaths were short and heavy. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked at Kakashi's sleeping figure. Amaya sighed and got out of bed quietly, walking out of the room and closing the door behind her.

She walked into the washroom and over to the sink, turning the tap and splashing water onto her face.

She sighed and turned off the water. She looked at her reflection in the mirror.

'I've missed something…Something big…I know it,' she thought, rubbing the temple on her head. She began getting angry. She turned around and punched the wall behind her.

"Damn it," she muttered. She walked out of the washroom slowly, taking a seat on the couch.

She began biting her nail.

'Sasuke left Orochimaru… Itachi killed Orochimaru and his subordinates… I-…killed Itachi and his subordinates… So, what's left…?"

Amaya groaned, digging her nails into the cushion beside her. She picked up the cushion and threw it at the wall. She crossed her arms and sat back, annoyed.

'Maybe…. Maybe Itachi missed something,' she thought. 'That's not possible-! ...Unless it is,' she added. She sighed heavily and closed her eyes.

"Amaya"

Amaya opened her eyes to see Kakashi leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

Kakashi walked over to Amaya and took a seat beside her. He wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

"Something bothering you?"

Amaya looked at him before glaring at the wall in front of her.

"Yes," she replied quietly. Kakashi nodded slightly.

"Do you want to talk about it?" he asked.

"Not really," she whispered. 'I don't want to worry you…' Amaya thought immediately after.

Kakashi nodded again and entwined his fingers with hers. Amaya rested her head on his shoulder with a faraway look in her eyes. Kakashi smiled faintly underneath his mask. He slipped his arms around her and pulled her onto his lap. Amaya smiled and buried her face into his chest. Within a matter of seconds, she fell asleep again. Kakashi got up slowly with Amaya in his arms. He walked back into the bedroom and put her on the bed gently, covering her with a blanket. He lay down beside her as he fell back into a dreamless sleep.

Sakura and Lee walked through the gates of Konoha side-by-side. Sakura took off her bear-like mask and breathed in fresh air.

The sun began rising slowly. Lee walked Sakura home.

"Thanks for walking me home, Lee," Sakura said, turning the doorknob.

Lee grinned and flashed a 'thumbs up.'

"No problem, Sakura-San!"

Sakura grinned and said bye to him as he took off towards his home.

Sakura closed the door and took off her shoes, walking up to her room. She changed her clothes quickly and yawned, plopping down onto her bed. She had a day to rest before her next mission. She covered herself with her blanket and fell asleep.

Ino stood in the small flower shop, fixing things up before any customers decided to come. She turned the sign on the door, so that it now read 'open'. She walked to the counter and stood behind the cash register. She heard the door open and looked up to see Iruka walking in. She grinned slightly.

"Good morning, Iruka-Sensei," Ino greeted. Iruka smiled and walked over to her.

"Good morning, Ino. How are you?"

"I'm fine, you?" she asked.

"I'm great, thanks for asking," he replied.

"So," Ino began. "How may I help you today?"

Iruka blushed slightly.

"Well, I was looking for some flowers for Shizune-"

"Say no more. I'll get something ready," Ino said, still grinning. Iruka nodded, looking around the shop.

Ino walked around the shop, picking up numerous flowers. She walked back behind the counter and began wrapping them professionally.

"So, Iruka-Sensei… You and Shizune-San, huh?"

Iruka's blush grew and he grinned sheepishly, nodding.

"When are you going to ask the big question?" Ino's grin grew as she looked at Iruka's flustered face.

"Um, well- uh…"

Ino chuckled.

"You're not getting any younger, Iruka-Sensei," she added.

Iruka nodded and shrugged.

"I know-…I'm just- taking my time," he said.

Ino nodded slightly and handed him the flowers. He paid for them and walked to the door.

"Good luck!" Ino shouted. Iruka turned and nodded, smiling widely.

Akemi jumped onto Michiko's bed. Michiko sat up quickly to see Akemi grinning.

"I don't have a mission today- why are you waking me up?" Michiko said, covering her head with her blanket.

Akemi took off her blanket and threw it away.

"Guess who's back!"

Michiko glared at her. 'If only looks could kill,' she thought darkly.

"I don't know…" she replied, sitting up in bed and rubbing the remaining sleep out of her eyes.

Akemi rolled her eyes slightly.

"Shino's back!"

Michiko looked at Akemi, staying silent.

"Come on- you know you like him!"

Michiko blushed lightly and hit Akemi with a pillow.

"You're spending too much time with Kiba," Michiko muttered, getting out of bed. Akemi grinned and watched Michiko walking away before she opened her mouth.

"Michiko and Shino sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G-!"

Michiko stopped in her tracks and watched as Akemi ran past her. Michiko blushed heavily as she grabbed a pillow and ran after Akemi.

Akemi ran out the door and stuck her tongue out. Michiko threw the pillow at Akemi and shut the door, locking Akemi outside.

A man stood in the shadows with his arms crossed. Another man stood beside him silently, in a black cloak.

"So, Itachi has already been killed …"

The other man nodded.

"Well, that just makes everything easier for us… I think it's time you make a plan for us to visit Sasuke-Sama… We'll wait a while though before carrying it out…"

The other man nodded once again before walking out the door, the end of his cloak being dragged behind him.

A young girl ran her fingers through the grass, her black hair swaying in the air. She sat crouched, listening to the tall man drag on and on about their mission.

'I-…don't want to work for them anymore… I'll get my revenge for what they did- mark my words…'

She stood up slowly and walked away from the man.

"Hey-! Hey, listen to me!"

She raised her hand and stuck up her middle finger to the older man.

"Go fuck a lemon, moron" she said carelessly as she continued walking away.

He glared at her. 'If only looks could kill,' he thought miserably, knowing that he wasn't allowed to touch her. 'She's hot though,' he thought, running his tongue over his lips.

The girl stopped and turned around, walking up to the man. He looked at her curiously. She brought her hand up and punched him over his head.

"Not even in your dreams," she muttered threateningly.

Another man walked out from the bushes.

"Now, now Chikako…" he said.

Chikako raised her head, looking at the man.

"It's not my fault- I have to defend myself from moronic perverts," she muttered, walking away.

He shook his head and walked in the opposite direction.

Chikako sat in a small room, looking over the numerous photos on the ground. She sighed quietly as a tear slipped down her face.

'I'll get them back… I promise…'
