Just For You

Chapter twenty-four- Truths Revealed


"I told you once before, Amaya…. That-…"

-Flashback-

"Your genjutsu needs more work," Itachi said plainly as he put away one of his kunai knives. Amaya glared at him.

"So does your attitude," Amaya muttered darkly.

Itachi looked up and glared at her as she grinned sheepishly.

"I'm just kidding, calm down!" she said, laughing happily.

Itachi smirked and they both walked home.

-End Flashback-

Amaya felt unshed tears stinging at the back of her eyes.

"How- why…?" Amaya stammered out. Itachi smirked faintly.

"Think about it- no one knew that you were going after me." Itachi began, his smirk growing slightly. "No one except you, and I was surprised when you killed Kisame, thinking it was me- but I wouldn't expect anything less from you… What I wonder, is why you didn't choose to use your Byakuugan or your extra reserved chakra…" Itachi added.

Amaya continued to look at him, speechless. Suddenly, everything clicked in her head.

'Why was it that no one told me that I killed some other bastard instead of Itachi? Damn it…' she thought angrily. Amaya closed her eyes and Itachi looked at her, slightly amused. She opened them to reveal white eyes and three black small circles which quickly took the shape of commas. The three black commas shifted once to the right and stopped.

"You're pathetic… Do you think that that will actually work on me?" Itachi asked, still amused.

Everyone's face crossed Amaya's mind, from her parents to her friends, and to Kakashi. She grew angry as Itachi's face passed her thoughts.

The moon hung high in the sky as clouds covered its light. Amaya and Itachi stood in silence, looking at each other. The clouds passed and the moon's illuminating light shone down in them. Amaya took off, heading straight for Itachi. She grew angry as she aimed to punch his face, Itachi moved to the side swiftly. Amaya tried to aim a kick for his head. Itachi moved back with ease. Amaya's anger began growing.

"You took away his innocence!" she shouted angrily as she swung her fist towards his gut.

"You took away his family!" she aimed a kick for his head once again as he moved back again.

"You took away my best friend!"

Itachi was caught off guard with her last words. Amaya took her chance and struck a punch across his face. Itachi glared at her as he moved back once again. Itachi brought his hands together underneath his cloak.

"Katon- Goukakyuu no Jutsu!" Itachi put his hand to his mouth and in a matter of seconds, a large ball of fire emitted from his mouth. Amaya jumped up to a near-by tree and watched as the large fire disappeared. She quickly began making seals.

"Katon- Housenka no Jutsu!"

Numerous fireballs were directed towards Itachi. Itachi jumped back quickly and noticed the small shuriken within the flames. He smirked and dodged them while they hit the ground with great force. Amaya growled, knowing that such a technique wouldn't work on him.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Amaya shouted as she put her hands together. Six distinct bunshins took off towards Itachi- attempting to deliver numerous kick and punches to him. Itachi jumped back and threw kunai knives at the bunshins. In a matter of seconds, all of them had disappeared. He stood quietly, taking in his surroundings.

"Kokuangyou no Jutsu!" Amaya shouted quickly.

Itachi looked around as darkness consumed him.

'What the Hell…How is she able to use this jutsu?' he looked around quickly and stayed silent. 'Obviously, knowing her…she's going to attack from above.'

Itachi put his hands together and inhaled deeply.

"Katon- Goukakyuu no Jutsu!" he shouted as the large fire ball was directed upwards.

Amaya smirked.

"Not good enough, Itachi!" she shouted as she came up from behind him. Itachi's eyes widened slightly and moved to the side quickly. Amaya kicked forward as her foot collided with air. Amaya lost her concentration as the genjutsu was lifted.

'Oh damn!' she thought as she noticed Itachi coming towards her with a kunai knife. Amaya ducked as the kunai knife chopped off a few pieces of her hair. She did a small spin on the ground and tried to trip Itachi but failed as he jumped back.

"Give up," Itachi said directly.

"You-…" Amaya began as she sent chakra to her hand.

"Bastard!" Amaya shouted angrily as she took off towards him at top speed.

Itachi looked at her hand and smirked. 'Chakra Kyuuin no Jutsu, eh?' Itachi stepped back and felt some of his chakra drain as Amaya came within inches of his face. He continued jumping backwards as Amaya came closer to him.

"Stay still, damn you!" she said angrily. Itachi's smirk grew slightly.

"You wish," he muttered.

Amaya growled as an explosion of chakra could be seen around her. Itachi took out three kunai knives and sent them towards Amaya, hoping to distract her. Amaya moved to the side and watched as the kunai knives flew passed her. Itachi now stood twenty feet away from her, still smirking. Amaya looked directly in his eyes.

"Tsukiyomi," Itachi muttered.

Amaya's mouth widened as she noticed her surroundings change colors to black, red and white.

Distant screams could be heard as Amaya dropped to her knees, holding her head.

-Tsukiyomi-

Amaya walked around and noticed the dead bodies on the floor. She ran around the village and noticed the dead children, mothers and fathers. Two seconds later, she was tied to a pole. Itachi threw kunai knives and swords at her. Amaya continued screaming.

Amaya continued sitting on her knees and holding her head, screaming. Itachi's eyes laughed at her pain. He continued looking at her intently and his face soon turned to that of confusion.

Amaya opened her eyes opened and they looked back into Itachi's eyes. Her eyes were a deep shade of purple, though the black comma shapes of the sharingan could still be seen. She grew small fangs and growled. Small black marks curled themselves around her arms. Her hair turned from its normal shade of black to a raven color. Amaya stood up and took off towards Itachi, her speed increasing. Itachi was caught off guard as he felt himself being kicked from the side of his head. Itachi's side collided with a tree and he flinched. Amaya took out numerous kunai knives and small shuriken. Itachi noticed this and had just barely moved out of the way. The kunai knives and small shuriken dug into the tree and stayed there. Amaya growled as the veins by her eyes could be seen.

Itachi slightly panicked and quickly made seals with his hands.

"Katon Goukakyuu no Jutsu!" he aimed the large fireball towards Amaya.

Amaya grew angry and ran forward. Her chakra grew around her, protecting her as she ran through the fire.

'What the Hell is going on?' Itachi thought as he jumped backwards before Amaya's now grown claws could reach him. Itachi took out eight kunai knives and threw them forward. The kunai knives struck Amaya as she continued running forward. Amaya stumbled slightly as she felt the kunai knives collide with her body. Amaya coughed up blood as her chakra went down slightly.

Amaya raised her head, blood dripped down from the corner of her mouth. She growled as the black dots shifted once more. Another black comma shape appeared in her eyes.

Itachi's mouth opened slightly and his eyes met with Amaya's. Amaya made seals which were too fast for Itachi to see.

"Tsukiyomi," Amaya muttered.

Itachi's eyes widened as he was forced to see his own personal Hell.

-Tsukiyomi-

Itachi sat on the ground, alone. Amaya stood in front of him, with Sasuke by her side. The two began hurting a defense-less Itachi. Itachi remained quiet as he felt sharp object tear apart his body.

Three seconds passed. Itachi stood shaking in front of Amaya. Amaya made seals quickly as the marks around her arms grew slightly bigger.

Amaya put her arms down as blue chakra began emitting to her fingertips. She had a chidori in each hand. Itachi noticed this and remained quiet.

Amaya ran forward at full speed and within seconds, her hands went through Itachi.

Itachi flinched but remained quiet. Amaya moved her fingertips as she heard Itachi's rasped breathing. Amaya's breathing quickened as she tried to breathe in properly.

"No more, right?" she asked quietly.

Itachi nodded with the small strength he had left.

"No more," he said reassuringly.

The Sharingan disappeared from her eyes, her expression softening.

"You can rest now… You have enough time. I'll be right here, Itachi-Kun," Amaya said quietly.

Itachi nodded once more and whispered.

"Thank you, my friend…" Itachi closed his eyes slowly.

Amaya took out her hands with mild difficulty.

The sun began rising slowly, but the clouds turned dark gray.

Amaya laid him down on his back. She felt her muscles strain and she knew that her outburst had caused some damage to one of her lungs. Amaya ignored her pain as she lay down on her side beside Itachi. She took her right hand and held Itachi's right hand. She noticed how cold it was, and how quickly his face paled. They both had blood covered on their clothes, hands and faces. A single tear ran down Amaya's face as she closed her eyes. A small smile graced their lips as their bodies went limp.


Naruto sat at the kitchen table, looking out the window, bored. He noticed Kakashi walking by and went outside to greet him.

Kakashi decided to treat Naruto to breakfast.


Kakashi and Naruto sat on the stools, facing each other as Naruto ordered some ramen.

"Kakashi-Sensei," Naruto began.

Kakashi looked up from his book and nodded, allowing Naruto to continue.

"Why are we still on this island?"

Kakashi looked away uneasily.

"And… Where's Amaya-San?" Naruto added.

Kakashi opened his mouth to speak, but stopped abruptly as he noticed Kurenai standing at the door of the ramen shop.

"We can go back to Konoha tomorrow," Kurenai said quickly. Her smile faltered as Naruto and Kakashi stood up. Naruto was the first to notice this.

"But, Amaya…" Kurenai trailed off.

Kakashi's eyes widened as he took a step forward.

"What happened?"


Neji looked around the kitchen, wondering where Tenten was. He walked over to Lee, who was watching TV.

"Lee, where's Tenten?" he asked.

Lee glanced up at him.

"She's training- she's been doing it since sunrise," Lee replied. Neji raised his eyebrow and walked out of the house quickly.

He looked up at the sky and knew that it was going to rain soon.

Tenten continued punching and kicking the tree while throwing kunai knives and small shuriken around. Her knuckled were slightly bloody as she continued punching the tree.

Neji crossed his arms and watched Tenten. Tenten glanced at him and growled quietly.

"Go away, Neji," she said quietly. Neji raised his eyebrow.

"I don't want to," he replied.

Rain began falling down quickly. Tenten continued punching the tree.

"Tenten, get inside or you'll catch a cold," Neji said bluntly.

Tenten remained quiet and she began kicking the tree.

'Like you care, Hyuuga Neji…' she thought darkly.

"Tenten, don't be stupid. Come inside before you get sick," Neji said, making sure she could hear him.

The rain began pounding down on them hard.

"Go away, Neji," Tenten repeated.

Neji was starting to get annoyed.

"Tenten, why can't you understand that-…?"

"No, Neji- why can't you understand?" Tenten turned around and faced him, some of her hair sticking to her face because of the rain.

"Why can't you understand what I'm trying to do?" Tenten began.

Neji looked at her questioningly.

Tenten felt tears stinging her eyes.

"Damn it, Neji- why can't you understand that I'm in love with you?" Tenten said angrily.

Neji's eyes widened as he heard that.

"Why can't you understand that I didn't want to fall in love with you?" Tenten's hands curled into fists. Neji opened his mouth to speak but stopped as he noticed a few tears running down Tenten's face. Neji felt guilty but continued looking at her. He walked forward slowly and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Tenten-…." He began. "I didn't want to fall in love with you either."

Tenten stopped crying and looked at him.

"What-….?"

Neji leaned in and captured her lips in a passionate kiss. Tenten closed her eyes and kissed him back. She raised her hands and absentmindedly ran them through his hair. Neji pulled Tenten in closer and deepened the kiss. The rain continued to fall down heavily.

Neji pulled away and the two opened their eyes slowly.

"But I'm glad I did," he said quietly, as he captured her lips in another kiss, only gentler.

He reluctantly pulled back and Tenten wrapped her arms around him, giving him a hug. Neji lowered his head to the crook of her neck and gave her a small peck there. Tenten felt her cheek grow hotter.

"Did you like the rose?" Neji asked quietly.

Tenten smiled faintly and nodded.

"Thank you, Neji," she said quietly. Neji smirked at her flushed face and the two walked back to their 'house.'


Ino sat on her bed. She had just finished packing and looked around the room. She sighed and got up, walking out of her room.

Ino joined everyone for dinner and they all ate in silence.


Naruto lay down on his bed, not being able to wait until tomorrow. He was happy that he was going to be seeing everyone again tomorrow. But at the same time, he was worried about Amaya. He decided not to tell everyone else, knowing that they'd find out anyway.
