Ok, I made a few minor changes to the prologue, that will affect the story a tiny bit, it's short enough so you may want to go and read it again. I can't believe I updated so fast...

oh, and in the last chapter I forgot to write this in... Uchiha Shisui was the first person Itachi killed... that really happened in the anime...

I do NOT own Naruto, but I do own Ayako, she is my own character (and I don't own the song either The Ataris do)

Move Along: forgive me for not being in your life

Song: The Saddest Song

By: The Ataris

Uchiha Shisui was running into the forest to the west of Konohana, clutching a new born Ayako in his arms. She was less than a few hours old, yet he needed to make sure she was out of Konohana before Itachi knew she was alive. Nobody had wanted to believe him when he told then that Itachi might try something that would cause problems, but they let him take Ayako out of Konohana.

Itachi was currently on a mission, and when he returned, he would be told that Ayako had died a few minutes after she was born and had been buried immediately. It was written in all official public records, except a small note, in a book that only the Hokage had access to. She was to be left in the forest and found by ninja from Amegakure, who would raise her.

Shisui found the location where he was to leave her and set her down. He then jumped up into a tree, sat on a branch and waited.

When the ninjas finally came, they saw Ayako and read the letter Shisui had left with her. After a few minutes, the woman picked her up and they left.

"Sorry I can't take care of you myself, Ayako" he whispered, more to himself than anyone else. Shisui ran back to Konohana, still worrying about whether or not he had done the correct thing.

It had been almost eight years since then; actually, in two days, it would be. Shisui had always questioned his decision, and had always worried about how she was doing. As long as she didn't know that she was an Uchiha, she was safe, and he was sure the family that took care of her wouldn't tell her, or at least not until she was able to protect herself. He had always expected her to show up one day, wanting to see him... but that day had never come.

Shisui was relived, and somewhat amazed, that Itachi still hadn't gone insane... but still, he knew it was just a matter of time...

The next day Shisui was walking along the river, when Itachi came up to him and began walking along side him.

"Shisui... I think tomorrow is going to be the day"

"Itachi... I'm going to have to tell someone, I can't just let you kill everyone..." came the sad response from Shisui.

"Unfortunately, Shisui, I can't let that happen..." said Itachi, his eyes shining with malevolence "and I also need to acquire the Mangekyo Sharingan... Shisui, I'm sorry... Bye."

somebody please comment... even if it's just to say that you read it, or even flame me... just comment, please...
