It`s an illusion, she told herself, clenching her eyes shut tightly, she tried to think about something else.
Naruto,
Ramen,
Takoyaki.
She shut her eyes, her heart beating loudly, she was saved from continuing when the room changes, she is back on her knees with him standing in front of her.
"You have improved." His voice bringing her back to reality. "But far from…"
"I know." She cut him off, standing back on her feet her eyes determined she looks at him.
"No." He answered her unspoken question. This training has been going on for far too long.
"Itachi, I don`t have much time left." She pleaded, had someone told her a week ago she will be training with Itachi, the missing-nin, Sasuke`s brother Itachi, she would have made 5 feet grave for them.
She laughed humourlessly at the irony of the situation.
"You are overworking." It was not like of him to worry for her but it has been less than a week and she is already hitting her limits, the last thing he wants is for her to end up with a chakra exhaustion,
"Itachi either we start or…." Her voice died in between as she falls, the troll of such a heavy training taking on her.
Itachi was quick on her rescue, not because he is interested in her or anything.
No far from it, but because she is the future Hokage.
Hokage of Konoha.
