And our favorite psychotic murderer! Yay!
When Itachi first heard that they had found his cousin, Kimiko, he had been mildly curious. He remembered well the determination and zeal of both the Hyuuga and the Uchiha in find the missing child. It had been a mass search, with many volunteers, but, in the end, proved fruitless. And now she had finally returned. How unforunate his father and mother had had to die before she had come home.
However, the simple fact that she had finally come back to Konoha had not been enough to peak his interest. What had was the fact that she was the Xiaolin Dragon of Fire. There had been rumors of the new Xiaolin Dragons fighting such forces as Wuya, Hannibal Roy Bean, and Chase Young. Itachi had been mildly interested when he had heard of this but now it was sharpened by the fact that it was one of his family who was one of these young monks.
When they went to get Naruto-kun, he simply had to see his little cousin. After all he wouldn't want to make her feel unloved, now would he?
Itachi smiled the same smile he had had on his face when he murdered his entire clan in front of his younger brother's eyes.
