Reiyana became his student and learned all of his techniques, mastering the two seals. During that time, her life was difficult, as Gatabunta waqs harsh.

Around three in the morning it rained and the fire was drowned. She went into what was left of what she just destroyed.As Reiyana wandered the human littered halls, lost in thought she was unaware of a pair of Sharingan eyes watching her. 'Who is this girl and why is she here?'

She felt so heavy right now, miserable for no reason. Maybe it was because of the dead bodies; maybe it was because of her hateful life. Her killer intent was growing, Itachi could sense it. 'Maybe it's not a good idea to be here at this moment'.

Reiyana's eyes were getting teary. She took out her sword and slashed the walls, and let out an anguish sob. Reiyana quickly wiped away her tears and slashed her sword some more. Her sword, Yuketosa, seemed to have it' own evil aura surrounding it. Yuketosa used to be Gatabunta's but she took it after his death and the sword accepted her. Sometimes, when her bloodlust had gone to the measures of extreme, the death curse seal will act on its own and leak some of its power into her sword. She swung it at a statue of Orochimaru.

'What? How come she has the death curse seal…she can't be…'

It exploded and set on fire. She laughed again, but it turned to another sob.

Soon, Reiyana lost control and slashed everything in her way. She was crying, there were just so much tears she can't stop them, so not she didn't bother to and just let them flow freely. She screamed to no one in particular.

She boosted all of her chakra left into her sword, smashed it to the ground, and sunk to her knees, leaning against her sword. The ground shook violently from the impact, and a million cracks appeared on the walls and floors. The ground above their heads, started tumbling at some places, it was defiantly not safe.

Reiyana was so depressed, she would've slit her wrists if she had enough chakra to pull out her sword. By now her cloak was torn into shreds so she ripped the whole thing off. Suddenly she felt someone coming near her. She was out of chakra, but she could summon a jutsu that would release her dragon of night seal. She was about to do that until she felt a sharp pain in her lower back and gasped.

"The fucking seal..." she muttered.

She was taking too much pain so she fell unconscious and was about to fall over when Itachi caught her.The girl would probably cause a fit if she woke up finding her sword lost, so he took it and placed it in her shaft. This was like doubling the weight, the sword was heavy so he instead strapped it to his own back. He quickly exited sound, and searched for a place where they could rest. He was jumping from tree to tree until he actually took notice of her.

He was carrying her bridal style, so he couldn't help but look down at her well formed breasts and pretty face. When jumping, his thigh would touch her back or butt lightly, and he felt her ass it was really firm. When Itachi became aware of himself thinking of this he blushed and quickly looked down to see if she noticed.

Itachi finally found a good sized cave. By now it was already in the afternoon. Itachi decided to take precautions and put her sword with shaft in a corner where he will reach it faster and she can, and check her body for any weapons.

He advanced toward the body, straightening her out first. He looked at her up and down, he noticed she wore such assassin would wear. 'Nope, no weapons' Itachi studied her arms, one with the dragon of night seal and one with the earth detruction seal. The dragon of night seal was particularly interesting, a black red eyed dragon with black and red scales. The other seal on her arm was deformed, almost stringy. He turned her over and prepared for the worst.

The black coaled seal was still there, as normally would. Itachi's brow furrowed when he saw the red lines thought the heart. 'This is not going to be easy.' At least he had a done a big chunk of his mission: finding her.

Itachi returned to the other end of the cave and watched her sleep.

I have a friend? I have a friend. Yeah, I have 5 friends. Yeah. Their names are Brittany, Tyla, Sumi, Kyo, and, and… Ainsley. Yeah. They're my friends.

My seal? What seal? Oh, that seal? Which one? The death one?

Is it killing my friends? Oh, no, yes it is. This can't be happening.

Why don't I ever have friends? Because they will always be killed sooner or later by me. Why would I kill my friends? My seal will.

Do I even have friends? What were their names again?

What are these ugly black wires doing to my friends? It's killing them! It's my death seal!

I don't even have any friends. Seiko is being nice to me because only he and I together can activate the earth destruction seal.

No friends. I'm wasted. I'm alone. Alone.

Reiyana awoke. She had been having these types of dreams almost every day. This one was particularly bad. Reiyana held her head for a minute, until she looked up to her surroundings.

She was in a cave of some kind, and she noticed her sword in its shaft in corner.

"You're awake" came a male voice.

She looked at him. "You took me here?"

He nodded. He was kind of breathless to look at her. Her hair was all messed and she looked quite sexy to him. "Well, hn, I guess I just lost control." Grumbling at her own behaviour earlier, she looked to the entrance of the cave.

She stood up to get her sword. He got there first and took her it. She slightly narrowed her eyes in irritation.

"Can I know your name?" He already knew who she was, he just needed a sentence starter.

"The great Uchiha Itachi is asking for my name, are you recruiting for Akatsuki?"

The great Uchiha Itachi was shocked, how did she know what he was doing?

"Easy, I'm always a target for terrorist organizations"

"You...could read minds?"

She was mad. "No. Give me my sword"

Itachi sighed, and attempted to stay calm, when this woman's cockiness was really getting to his nerves. "What about you join Akatsuki, even, temporaily?"

She furrowed her brow a little. "How much do you know about me?"

Itachi couldn't help but smirk. "More than half is unknown."

"Not interested" Reiyana answered curtly. "Now may I have my weapon back please?"

Itachi sighed. 'A stubborn one'. "Then I'll have to take you by force"

Before Reiyana had the chance to shoot something back, Itachi used a technique he learned secretly from Hidan, a pressure point where you could knock someone unconscious just by applying the right amount of pressure.

Itachi used two fingers and shot to Reiyana's neck. She dodged just in time, and delivered a kick. It wasn't received though. Reiyana saw Itachi's eyes narrow and used his distraction to retrieve her sword. She didn't want to fight, but she wanted to see this Uchiha Itachi's skills, she knew Akatsuki was persistent and wouldn't just let her off the hook. Itachi wouldn't just let her go either, so incase she ever needed to fight this guy she can know about her opponent.

They stood in the cave and Reiyana looked right into his eyes. Itachi activated the Mangekyou sharingan. She stared right into them. Itachi was taken back. 'What's going on…Oh SHIT! Where the fuck did she learn that? Those eyes, she's activated her deflective jutsu!' With that Itachi turned his Mangekyou Sharingan off. The girl in front of him faded. 'What the FUCK? The whole time was fighting a shadow clone. No, not a shadow clone, I would have seen through that with my Sharingan.' Itachi smirked. 'I've met my match'

Reiyana traveled east, Itachi completely forgotten. Even far from a village, she could hear the splashing of water over the cliffs, and the fresh smell.

'The village of the waterfall' she thought to herself. 'So peaceful, it would be a shame if I ruined it.'

She was wearing another black high-collared cloak over her usual attire, for it were still cold this time of year, and a straw hat to hide her face. It was early in the morning and everybody was still in their homes sleeping their fucking asses off, when she didn't have a home and she always had to stay alert in her sleep.

She had wandered aimlessly until she saw the gates of the village of the waterfall.Reiyana decided she needed a comfortable bed and someplace warm, so she went to the nearest inn.

"I want a room" she said monotonously.

Suddenly, Reiyana felt distant eyes on her. She turned her head sharply to the big window, just to see nothing. Itachi was close, too close.

The desk clerk was obviously scared. "Umm…t-that will be s-sixty dollars per n-n"

"I said, I want a room." This time, she lifted her head to make eye contact with the clerk.

Now, the poor man was scared off his ass. All he did was point his index finger up, at the same time shuddering. Reiyana proceeded upstairs, where she found an empty room with a window. She placed her hands on the window, looked outside, and sighed. Then a knock came at the door. She opened the door, and there was a young guy with blond hair and a serious expression on his face.

"What do you want?"

"Are you Posh?"

Shit "Yes" She whispered. Nobody has used her assassin name in almost a year.

"One person, I want his head tonight at midnight. Seiko. Two hundred ryo."

She reached out her hand and placed it on his neck. Itachi heard a crack and then the guy slumped to the ground in front of her. She slammed the door and the guy was left outside. Reiyana's memories of an assassin could never be forgotten. It haunted her like hell, she was sick of it but she couldn't get rid of it. Her life was a web of lies and secrets, but one of the most dangerous secrets was her forgotten family.

"Don't play with her!"

"Get away, fast!"

"She's the daughter of HIM!"

A little girl walked home only to be greeted by silence. She advanced down the hall, and looked into her father's study room.

He looked up, went to her, and bent down.

"Ana, what's wrong?"

"Dad, how come the other kids don't play with me? Is it because of you?"

The father looked down, frowned, and said "I'm sorry Ana, I am sorry your father had to be like this. It's not fair for you, but you can't do anything about it. Life is hard; you just have to endure it."

Reiyana awoke with a start. She was sweating and panting. Reality rushed into her and forgotten memories flooded in.

Her father was the strongest of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist. People of Mist feared him, but he had a good heart. The only person he ever cared for was his daughter, and when he realized his daughter was suffering because his existence, he killed himself when Reiyana was eight years old.

When the leader died other members fled also. Young ones like Kisame did, and so did Zabuza. Reiyana was shook, she ran and ran from home, and had an encounter with a bear. After that she was with Gatabunta.

She got up and went out the window. Two in the morning Reiyana went out the window and climbed to the roof of the inn, which had a good view of the city. She sat down, with one leg propped up and her other leg hanging over the edge. Her normal attire wasn't exactly comfortable, so at night she wore a black lace bra and panty with an untied dark red robe and her normal black boots.

There was a strange calmness when you look at the full moon in the middle of the night with only silence. That man…is so stubborn he'd probably come and fight me one of these days…hn. She decided that next week she will go and pay Mist a little visit. But first of all, she wants to spend more time in the village of waterfall because it was so beautiful.

After Itachi witnessed the scene in the doorway he decided to get a room also. This girl… is so stubborn I'd have to get her back by force…hn.

So, Itachi didn't bother to visit the clerk and instead kicked a door open and stayed in that room.

That night he lay in bed, tossing and turning. Itachi stood up and went out his window, heading to the rooftop for some peace.

Reiyana sensed somebody coming toward her, but she didn't bother to move. I'll just kick some poor drunk off the highest building in the whole village.

Itachi was climbing up the building with ease when he felt something hard connect with his chin.

There was so much force that he actually fell back, but caught a balcony and hauled himself up. He was angry and annoyed, mostly at himself for letting some person kick him. Whoever this person is they're gonna die painfully…He climbed up again, this time avoiding another kick and threw a punch.

Reiyana was slightly annoyed when whoever she kicked started to climb up again. Does this person not value his life? She gave another kick but it hit nothing.

As if on natural instinct, she arched her back just as a swinging fist whizzed past her face.

Itachi was holding himself up with one hand on the ledge, while the other hand hit air.

He looked down and saw…a really good sight. Her back was arched, sexy undergarments, and half naked. He got hard just looking and almost almost drooled but he caught himself.

Reiyana jumped back, not bothering to put herself into some kind of fighting stance.

Itachi also jumped onto the ledge, only to face… her..

When Reiyana saw Itachi she rolled her eyes. Why me and why now? But boy, is he some sexy guy…

Itachi was wearing his tank only, and it clung to him showing off his lean and well toned upper body.

Now Itachi was even madder at himself. He was erect because of her?

"You know, a moment ago I saw flies in your mouth" She started, deliberately trying to harass him.

He cleared his voice in embarrassment. "What are you doing up here so late?"

"I should ask you, aren't you the one that's coming after me?"

"Yes." Itachi was trying to keep his voice calm. After all, he was shocked, flushed, and erect. "I'm going to ask you once more to nicely help me finish my mission, or I will take you by force. Our leader needs some ninja for our takedown of the Mist."

Mist…?

"What are my advantages?"

She's considering this…

"Well, you get your own room, all expenses paid, you can come and go as you please, and you get paid after each mission."

Hmm…not bad, at least I get paid and free food and board.

Reiyana smirked. "Sure" she replied cheerfully. Itachi was surprised she came up with this decision with out any hassles.

"On one condition" Never mind.

"What is it?"

"You have to fight me first"

Itachi smirked. This is going to fun.

"Only if I win I get to go and you will stop bothering me" added Reiyana.

"And if I win?"

"I'll join Akatsuki, temporilary."

"Deal"

In a blur Reiyana appeared behind Itachi and raised her right hand to his neck. She let it loosely grip his neck.

"You know you have to have more than this to win me"

She smirked. Reiyana let her other hand travel below his waist, down to his groin. She didn't even touch anything and Itachi took in a sharp breath. He grabbed the hand on his neck and pulled, this flipping her over. She landed on her feet and grinded against his hardened member.

Itachi grunted .He didn't know if it was because of ecstasy or of the intensity of the battle.

Shit…I can't let her keep doing this…it's cheap.

"Whore" He muttered under his breath.

She suddenly stopped. She slowly turned to face him, a glint of red in her eyes.

"Say it again?"

Itachi smirked. "I said you're a whore" he repeated, louder.

Reiyana closed her eyes. She could practically feel the heaviness of hurt in her heart. She really didn't care that the Uchiha said it, just what he said. I am not…a whore.

She punched him…hard. He slid on the ground. He was instantly about to flip back up but she appeared on top of him, her boot coming down lethally against his head. "Don't ever, call me a whore, because I'm not."

Itachi stared at her, concentrating hard in her eyes. He learned that he could learn a lot from a person by their eyes: their past, their present, and the most possible prediction of their future from their past and present. He could see their skills, the depth of eyes.What he saw surprised him. Beneath those endless black pits, there was hurt, possibly from betrayal or lost.. She wouldn't even care if her friends died, if happened to her too much, it was almost expected. Her eyes were deep and hidden, sometimes piercing.

He made a move swing a fist, and she flipped back up. She charged at him, and they fell into a close-combat taijutsu match. Her speed matched up to his, which gave him no chance to perform any type of jutsu. She took a chance to take out her sword, full intent on killing him. All Itachi could do was dodge, and observe her abilities. She wielded her sword like it was a feather, any common villager would think it was plastic. She came after him again, they jumped from building to building. She came close enough to Itachi to wound his left arm.

Itachi grunted and moved faster. She stopped, looked at her sword, and Itachi looked too. It was glowing, a black color. She smiled.

"Thanks…for the energy"

Itachi realized that she had put some of her death curse seal chakra into her sword, so when her sword touched blood, it was drained and transferred to chakra.

She was charging toward them when the kage of the waterfall village appeared between them. "What is all about? And who are you people?" He gasped, and when he saw Itachi, his gasped again, this time even more high-pitched.

Reiyana's eyes narrowed dangerously, and then she realized that she and Itachi had broken most of the buildings in the village. She quietly disappeared and with her travel bag, left the village.
