Nothing

that's it

That's all he felt

Nothing

No Pain

No Anger

Not Saddness

not even a Longing for his Beloved

how can you long for someone dead?

Itachi Couldn't Answer

he Couldn't

feel

anything

just nothing.

"Damnit!"

"H-haku?!" To say Zabuza was shocked would be an understatment

Haku didn't swear!

"Zabuza-sama isn't telling the story right!"

"Yes I-"

"LIES!! FILTHY LIES AND SLANDER!!" Holy Crap! Zabuza was so thrown by the cry that he ended up tossing the book in the air.

"Haku...?"

"What?" All to innocent for Zabuza's liking

"Have...um... were you watching 'Invader Zim' Again?"

"Mayyyybe..." That nothing, Haku just got this blank Look on his face. staring dumbly at the wall behind Zabuza's head.

"...H-haku...?"

"Hi wall! Make me a sammich!(yes that's how it's spelt)"

"Oh god."

Haku was just sitting there giggling to himself rocking back and forth muttering about Pancakes and Squirlles.

Zabuza picks up the book from the other side of the room.

The crisp air blew rather harshly for a cool September day.

Itachi, dressed in a white kimono with red chrysanthemums clustered at the bottom and slowly working their way up, was walking towards the stables.

The Hyuuga's did have many a horse, but all the ones that Itachi wanted to ride were 'too unsafe for a princess' and he was not allowed to even come within 20 feet of their stalls.

Instead, he was stuck with a plain black jumping breed with a dark brown mane and tail.

after taking up, he was off.

the scenery was a blur to him.

even more so as the tears rolled down his pale cheeks.

Gripping the reigns with one hand he furiously wiped them away.

Just as his vision came to, he saw three people at the side of the road.

Slowing to a halt he asked "Hello?"

"We are but poor simple circus performers un, Is there a village near by?"

"There is nothing near by, Not for miles."

The poor weasel never saw one of them sneak up behind him

"Then there shall be no-one to hear you scream yeah."

Itachi opend his mouth to question what the words meant when a pain flared up in his shoulder and as quickly as it started, his world faded to black

'Kisame...help... please.'
