Chapter 21
Mistaken
"I know you don't believe me," Itachi called. Sakura huffed, she was annoyed. 'the fact that I would believe something as stupid as Bandage buddies was as if Itachi dimmed her as the stupidest person on the planet .Of course she didn't believe it , it wasn't like she was Naruto or something'. "Naruto" she muttered a small amount of worry crossing her features. 'How she missed his stupid antics the way he would do anything for her, it all seemed so long ago.'
Itachi stood from his sitting position on the floor. He had finished wrapping up his hand with the piece of cloth and was moving closer to sakura. He tapped her lightly on the shoulder, causing her to look up at him. "Come on, Sakura" Itachi called his stern voice was commanding, as he moved straight passed her and made his way to the door. Sakura sat stunned.
'He was being so informal today,' Sakura thought. "I still don't get it Itachi-kun, why would you hurt yourself just to be like me?" Sakura questioned. 'So we can share the pain, to remind myself that I am in fact still human.' Itachi mentally answered. "hn" he actually answered, Itachi moved to open the door his black hair bouncing behind him. "Come on" he muttered again opening the door. A stream of sunlight beamed thought straight on sakura's face, the warmth of the sun made her feel safe again. As if she was back in her room, safe as safe could be, but alas she was here with one of the Uchiha's left in the world, but that wasn't the Uchiha she wanted to be near.
Sakura stood gracefully behind of Itachi, her once gleaming eyes where now staring dully at his back. Itachi jerked into action he pushed the door to the side. The sunlight that once made her feel warm was now disappeared being replaced with the coldness of Itachi's fatigue. He moved over to a small chair in the side and the room a dark piece of material was draped over it. He picked it up and threw it in sakura's direction. She bent down the floor picking it up. "An atkasuki coat? I don't think I want to be accepted as a villain yet. I haven't done anything wrong and you're sending off with a coat as If I was like the rest of you." Sakura argued clutching the coat in her petite arms; a scowl was slowly creeping onto her face. Her emotions seemed to be going hay wire lately.
Itachi grunted in response. "Move" he said the anger audible in his voice. He moved to his bedroom door. "Hurry up" he muttered again and exited the room for good. He was barking lots of commands today it was as if she was a disobedient child. Sakura sighed. "Men" she called and turned to the coat in her arms. "Maybe it's not all men. Maybe it's just Uchiha's." She called slipping on the coat.
Meanwhile, Itachi Leaned against the door. He sighed in Confusion; He looked to his left then his right. No one was in sight. He closed his eye's the thumping in his head Harder then it ever had been. It was causing him to feel so… distressed. "Why is she so annoying?" he asked himself but it just happened it escape from his lips. He felt a Poke on his arm. He looked down a pink haired girl stared up at him her finger hovering above his arm. "Ready?" he asked only one eye open.
She nodded not making a sound, and he started to move leaving sakura behind again. He moved in front. He had been doing that a lot lately leaving her behind to stare at nothing, barking orders leaving her, it was as if she didn't even exists.
She walked down the long hall sakura trailing after him. The few people that they passed were all in atkasuki coats, they nodded politely at Itachi and then they turned to sakura. Confusion spread across there faces. They all turned to Itachi; they almost practically shouted there reaction even thought they never said a word. But it was as if Itachi could read what they were thinking and sakura could too.
He just sent them a deathly glare and then they would carry on there way. They made there way to the end of the long hall a pair of large doors stood in front of them both. Itachi pushed the door it creaked slightly. Then He turned back to her, "Don't freak out," he almost commanded and turned back to the door. A Royal red room stood in front of her, she was almost so frozen that she couldn't move. It was a little Shocking how such an elegant place was in the atkasuki laree, and dark and dreary place that well consisted of black so far.
'It was almost as if they had transported it somewhere else'. She thought as she entered the room. There where Intricate designs on the wall, Gold clouds were mixed in with the red background. It made the room so almost welcoming. It made a change up to her room and Itachi's. There was a large stage in the centre of the elegant room it was Again red carpeted with gold intricate designing. She felt as if she was drawn to the stage. It looked so pretty she wanted to see it up close.
She stood in front of the stage tracing her finger over some of the designs. "Are you ready sakura" she herd a masculine voice from behind her, she felt then a pair of large hands on her shoulders. She turned to be face to face with … Itachi. The closeness made her Blush slightly, light pink covering her cheeks. She felt herself being pushed up a pair of steps and before she knew it she was on a stage right in the middle of the room. Itachi was in the corner of the stage by the steps. He smirked when he noticed how obvious she had been this entire time just taking in the room, instead of focusing on where she was going.
Sakura looked at the 6 chairs in the middle of the room, 5 were filled one empty. She could never think of anyone who would feel the last space. She thought sarcastically, as she turned to Itachi 'why was he smirking.' She thought. "So your …" there was along pause and sakura turned to face the long line of people that sat before her.
"Uchiha Sakura" Gasps were herd. "Itachi didn't you kill all of your family?" One person said. While Sakura's head dropped to the floor. "Itachi" She Muttered Anger Almost seemed to surround her. Itachi Gulped 'Maybe I went a bit over bored' he thought. "ITACHI!!!!" there was another scream from sakura. And the ground almost seemed to shake in anger. "So who's this girl then Itachi-san, yeah" another asked. Sakura turned her head to Itachi. 'Of course she wasn't an Uchiha, who would believe that,' she thought. Sakura opened her mouth to properly introduce herself when she was cut off. "leader-Sama Orochimaru has been spotted near here" a member of akatsuki announced. 'Sasuke' sakura mentally thought as she turned to look at a man located in the middle of the table. "Very well" he called and got up from his seat. Sakura was left in shock if Orochimaru has been spotted then that means that Sasuke is near there. "Wait!!" she screamed.
