Betrayed
Chapter 9
Anita sighed as she walked back into her house. She had not been able to get back to Konoha as she thought. Why couldn't she get back? What was wrong with that stupid transportation jutsu?!
She opened her door and sat down on the only piece of furniture in her house, a recliner chair, and she put it all the way back.
It frustrated her to no end, that even she, the container of the two-tailed demon cat, didn't have enough chakra to complete the jutsu. What the hell was wrong with this stupid town that didn't allow her to use the only two tails of chakra that she had?!
Anita sighed through her teeth; she needed to get back, but how?
Just then, the doorbell rang, and she got up slowly, taking her time to get to the door.
The doorbell rang a couple of times, at a faster pace, signaling that the person was getting irritated.
"What?!" Anita yelled as she opened the door with a lot of force, making the door slam inwardly.
The person cringed, her hand poised where the bell of the door was supposed to be. Anita was very scary sometimes. It was as if she really had flames coming out of her eyes, showing her anger.
The flames in Anita's eyes disappeared as she noticed the person standing there.
"Oh. Sorry, Kagome-chan." Anita said, sighing before moving out from the doorway, letting Kagome step in.
But Kagome stood there, looking at the slightly taller girl, "Uh, I was wondering if I could have a ride again." She said sheepishly, rubbing the back of her neck.
Anita smiled faintly as she saw her do that, Kakashi and Naruto always did that when they were in a bind. Especially when they were apologizing to a certain pink-haired girl that was very scary.
"So, you need a ride to your house?" Anita asked.
Kagome nodded, and she was almost afraid of the raven-haired girl for rejection.
Anita almost grinned when she felt Kagome's chakra signature spike in fear.
"Are you afraid of me, Kagome?" Anita whispered, leaning forward to whisper into the miko's ear.
Kagome shivered involuntarily, "Uh, no! Of course not!"
Anita leaned back, "Of course. Now why would you be afraid of me?" Anita grinned widely; Kagome hated it when Anita changed moods too fast.
Kagome shrugged, "I'm not afraid of you."
Anita smirked, though Kagome didn't see, of course Kagome was afraid of her, after all, Anita had a chakra signature that was way higher than the miko's.
"So, you need a ride?" Anita said, and, knowing the answer, she walked past Kagome to her car, getting in the front seat.
Kagome followed unsurely, one could never be sure when Anita was driving. After all, Anita had been the one to drive on the opposite road, dodging oncoming traffic. And all the while, the raven-haired girl had been laughing and grinning her head off.
Kagome got in the passenger seat slowly.
Right when she got in, Anita took off, not even waiting for Kagome to put on her seatbelt.
Kagome clutched at the seats tightly, who knew that Anita could drive so fast and not get into a car crash?
Then, Anita stopped in front of her house, and Kagome got out, staring in horror at what she saw.
The house was on fire. Leaping even higher, the flames consumed the house. Kagome blinked as her eyes stung, from the intense heat and from the pain.
What if her mother was inside?
Her mother!
"Mom!" She screamed as she ran toward the house.
Anita grit her teeth and ran after her, didn't that stupid miko know how fast she was going? Surely faster than normal humans, or non-shinobi.
Anita caught up with her quickly, thanks to the use of her chakra, which she pumped to her legs to run faster.
"Kagome, if you go in there now, you'll burn to a crisp." She said emotionlessly, she had to be strong, especially when Kagome needed her the most.
Anita sighed softly; she didn't feel Kagome's mother's chakra presence anywhere, meaning she was dead.
Kagome sunk to her knees and cried, she knew her mother was dead, she could feel it.
Anita bent down next to her, whispering comforting words in her ear, "Kagome-chan. Shhhh, I'm here, it's all right. Don't cry."
Anita hated it when Kagome cried; she didn't know what to do! It's not as if her brother or sister had woken up late at night from a nightmare and cried.
No, none of her siblings had cried, at least not to her knowledge. The only crybaby she knew of, who wasn't her cousin or anything, was Sakura. Sakura was a little pink-haired girl who was to be obsessed with her cousin Sasuke.
Well, she wasn't little anymore, in fact, she was only a few years younger than her, maybe two or three years. And she certainly wasn't obsessed with Sasuke anymore. She was actually in love with her own brother Ryohei!
Anita moved back a step as Kagome stood up abruptly, glaring at the figure that was coming their way.
Kagome's fist were clenched shut, her knuckled turning white, nails digging into her palm, she clenched her jaw so hard that it hurt.
Anita watched silently at the miko. Her expression practically screamed for blood. 'You really are becoming like them if you have that strong bloodlust.' She thought as she saw Kagome lift up her arms.
Kagome imagined a bow in her hands, and her chakra shot out of her hands, forming the bow. Then, she thought of an arrow, and pulled back the string, preparing to fire.
The man was obviously drunk, holding an empty gasoline container in one hand and an empty beer bottle in the other, and he was obviously Kagome's stepfather.
She glared at him, and shot her arrow, sending it flying in his direction, and she shouted, "You killed her! You killed her and burned down our house! You will pay, you bastard!"
The arrow flew towards him, and went through his chest, making a gaping hole there. Then, he turned to ash.
Anita smirked as she saw the ashes fall to the ground. "So, you already know how to mold your chakra. At least into a bow and arrow." She whispered to herself.
Kagome turned back to the burning house, not knowing what to do. Her mother was dead, the house was burning, and she killed her stepfather.
Anita sighed and did a set a hand seals faster than the eye could see, though Kagome saw because her eyes did that weird thing and turned red, allowing her to see the hand signs.
Anita looked up as she did the last seal and said, "Suiton! Suiryuudan no Jutsu!" And, being conveniently near a lake, a big dragon formed from water moved above their heads.
Kagome stared in awe at the huge dragon, and gasped when it shot downward, toward the burning house.
There was a loud sizzling sound of the water evaporating from the heat, though the fires danced low now, not as high as before.
Anita did it a couple more times before the flames had finally died down, draining a lot of her chakra. She flopped to the ground, leaning back, her arms supporting her in a still upright position. She closed her eyes, wanting to sleep for using lots of chakra.
Kagome stared down at her, and Anita cracked open an eye. Anita smirked faintly as she saw Kagome's Sharingan activated. Though it appeared a little late for Kagome, late was always better than never, yeah?
Even if her brothers had activated their Sharingan when they were eight and twelve, didn't mean she was going to activate hers as soon as her brothers.
Kagome frowned, "Anita-chan, how will I be able to find out about my past and what my heritage is?"
Anita looked up at her, staring at her tear-stained face, "I could tell you." She whispered, getting up and walking back to her car.
Kagome followed shortly after, wanting to know how Anita would be able to tell her these important things.
Anita got in the front seat, waiting for Kagome to get in.
"So, you are from the most prominent clan of Konoha." She said, then said to herself, "Except for recent years," and then looked back at Kagome, "So, you are from the Uchi…"
Anita looked down at her skirt as she felt her phone vibrate and her ring tone go off.
'I'm a Barbie-Girl, in a Barbie world. Life in plastic, is fan-'
"Moshi moshi?" Anita said, very embarrassed for getting caught at having such a stupid ring tone. (I have that same ring tone! It went off in summer fun during art class, and people were staring at me. You know, I was a junior leader for little kids, yeah? And there was other junior leaders my age, and they were staring at me. It was so embarrassing. Especially with John and Dylan looking. But in front of Antonio I don't care. But it was weird…)
Anita paused, hearing the person's voice. She smiled widely, the happiest smile Kagome had ever saw Anita give.
"I haven't heard from you in a year! Why didn't you call before?" She exclaimed. She fell silent again, hearing the person's answer.
She nodded and said, "Okay Weasel-kun! Love ya lots!"
Kagome looked at Anita, and noticed how happy the raven-haired girl looked. Sure, she had looked happy before, though not as happy when talking to her 'Weasel-kun'. It was most likely Itachi. After all, didn't Itachi mean weasel?
Anita was about to hang up before she heard him talk again.
She looked a little confused as to why he still wanted to talk. Kagome put her ear close to the phone to hear.
"Who are you with?" Kagome knew it was Itachi!
"A friend." She replied to him.
"Where are you? You are not in Konoha, Suna, Oto, Kiri, Ame, Yuki, or any other country."
Anita grunted in annoyance, "I wish I were in any of the countries. That would mean I would know how to get back home."
Itachi chuckled and said, "Lots of people are missing you. Especially since you have been gone for a whole year. Do you know who needs you? Leader, Tsunade, your siblings, and your friends."
"I know, I know. But I have to take care of some things here."
Kagome stayed silent, listening to their conversation.
"What do you need to take care of?"
"Here, talk to my friend!" Anita almost shouted, and passed her cell to Kagome.
Kagome took it unsurely, and put the cell phone to her ear.
"Hello?" Kagome said in a small voice. She was still afraid of Itachi since her dream.
"Hello. Tell me bout yourself." Itachi said, wondering who this was.
"W-well," Itachi cut her off.
"Your afraid of me, aren't you?" He chuckled, "Well, I guess that eliminates about ten people who do not fear me. Continue."
"Okay, uh, I have black hair, and when it gets caught in the light it looks a little bluish. I have brown eyes, I'm not a ninja. I don't have any parents," once again, he cut her off.
"You obviously know me, and there are only a handful of people who know me and do not have parents, and at the same time not being a ninja." The only person crossing his mind was her
"Um…I…my mother lied to me about some things,"
Once again, she was cut off. "Uchiha…Kagome." He whispered quietly.
Kagome was silent, "…"
"Put Anita on the phone." He said.
Kagome passed the phone to the raven-haired girl, and Anita put the phone to her ear.
"You're in Tokyo?" Itachi asked.
"Yeah. But I don't know how to get home." Anita pouted.
"Well, you should. Go find a way home."
"Yeah, yeah. Call me later, ja ne." Anita said, and closed her cell.
Kagome looked at Anita, "So, where are we going?"
Anita looked at her and smirked, "Sengoku Jidai of course."
A/N: Sorry for the super late update. Please review! Since I don't feel like putting people's name any more, I'll just thank them now. Thank you those who have reviewed for the last chapter, but I'm sorry I'm too lazy to put your name.
Hm. I think I'm done with this. So, this is the end of Betrayed, though there will be a sequel. I think I'll call the sequel 'Old Friends' or something. It will have the part when Anita goes to Sengoku Jidai and stuff. I'll post a note in this story when the sequel is up, 'kay?
