AN: I don't own Naruto.

Chapter 9 – Rescue plans...
--------------------------------------------------
"Go to hell!" Sakura yelled at the cloaked figure as she struggled with the ropes binding her arms behind her back. Both her and Hinata were bound and tossed in to different cells in an abandoned castle as soon as they got there. Their cells faced each other, as one Akatsuki member stood in between them.
"Sa-sakura-chan..." Hinata muttered, watching her sister in the cell opposite of her.
"You're a very stubborn wench aren't you?" The Akatsuki member said with a frown.
"Exactly, now move along you red haired-" but Sakura was cut off when someone opened the old wooden dungeon door.
"What do you want Deidara?" Sasori asked not even looking at him.
"Just checking how you're doing Sasori, yeah." Deidara said as he walked to his partner.
"Stop playing around with her highness and the-" Deidara began.
"Playing?!" Sasori asked in an irritated tone.
"Uhh, anyways, Itachi calls for you. So you better go, yeah!" Deidara said.
"Hn." Sasori said, glaring at Deidara before leaving.
"Phew. That was close yeah." Deidara said to both girls, but just received looks of confusion. "Well anyways, it's Sakura-san and Hinata-san am I correct, yeah?"
Both Sakura and Hinata nodded, still confused about how this Deidara guy was acting. The last time they checked, he was a bomb happy nut.
"Well I'm guessing Sasori only argued with you two, so I'll be taking over. First off, let's start this again; I don't like talking with a lot of tension, yeah." Deidara said grinning.
"He doesn't seem too bad." Sakura thought. By the look on Hinata's face, she thought the same thing.
"Also, since Kisame already drained all of your chakra with his sword, there's no need for those ropes, yeah." Deidara said grabbing a dagger in his clay pouch. He cut them both loose, knowing they weren't stupid enough to fight him. "Now, that's better right?"
"Yeah. Thanks Deidara." Sakura said rubbing her sore wrists.
"Th-thank you." Hinata said.
Deidara then turned his attention to Sakura. He placed his knuckles under his chin as he looked at her, and then smiled.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Sakura asked, feeling a little uneasy.
"I can now understand why lord Itachi saved and brought you. You're really pretty, yeah." Deidara said grinning.
"What?!" Sakura said, her eye twitching. Sakura stood up and grabbed the rusty metal bars of her cell, glaring at Deidara. "You mean I'm only here to be his whore?!" Sakura yelled in anger. Hinata gasped. Deidara then started to break down laughing.
"Wh-what is so humorous about that?" Hinata asked.
"The day lord Uchiha gets himself a girl, a whore nonetheless, is the day Kisame becomes prince charming, yeah!" Deidara said as he continued laughing. He eventually stopped with a sigh. "It's been a while since I laughed so much. I like you already, yeah."
"Why exactly are we here then?" Sakura asked, calming down.
"Well for her highness," Deidara said pointing at Hinata, "I can't tell you, but why Sakura-san's here is what I'm trying to find out as well. I know lord Uchiha won't tell me directly, so I'm going to try to find this out right now, yeah."
"Lord Uchiha?" Sakura asked.
"Yes. He's the leader of Akatsuki now, our old one, well he was a bit annoying, yeah." Deidara said. "Ok, enough of that, now I just need some questions answered Sakura-san." Sakura just gripped the bars tighter before she slid to her knees. "Don't worry, after this I'll get you two some supper, yeah." Deidara said reassuringly with a smile. "And I make great mash potatoes!"
--------------------------------------------------
"How could I let them get captured like that?!" Neji yelled as he paced his tent back in the camp.
"Neji, calm down. It's late, you should get some rest." Tenten said in a concerned tone. Neji stopped pacing, but didn't face Tenten, not wanting her to see his guilty face. "We all miss them, and we're worried, but we can't do anything right now. We need to heal up and then find Sakura and Hinata in top condition. Think of the others still here. We feel the same way."
"But they're my only family..." Neji said eyes downcast. Tenten just walked up to him, and embraced him from the back. "They'll be alright Neji. Your friends here will make sure of it. I promise."
"Thank you...Tenten."
--------------------------------------------------
"Oi! Hey!...Damnit Sai. Answer me! What happened?!" Naruto complained as Tsunade was wrapping his shoulder with bandages. She too was also interested. Since the knights came back, they all carried grim looks. Both Sakura and Hinata weren't among them, and Tsunade could only think the worst, but she couldn't be sure.
Sai didn't look at Naruto's frustrated face as he let out a deep sigh. "Both Sakura-chan, and Hinata-chan were captured by the Akatsuki." Sai said with guilt.
"What?! How, why?! Damn it, if I wasn't so weak I-" Naruto began.
"Shut up dobe!" Sasuke snapped. Everyone in the tent stopped as the stared at him. Sasuke then turned his back to the rest of the group, and everyone began to proceed with whatever they were doing.
"We're going to get them back." Sai said with determination.
"Of course we are. Once we're all healed up, let's kick those Atkatsuki asses. Let's go!" Naruto said raising his arm into the air. "Owwwww!" He exclaimed as held his shoulder in pain. Everyone just shook their heads.
"Geez, don't kill yourself Naruto." Shikamaru said lazily, trying to sleep on his straw bed.
"You baka! I just closed that wound!" Tsunade yelled as she knocked the young knight over the head. Naruto just let out another wail of pain.
"Damn. If I was present in the battle I would have-" Kiba began.
"Kiba, not now." Shino said, cutting his comrade off.
"I'll go help make dinner." Chouji said before leaving the tent.
"I'll help too." Ino said in a low voice. Everyone remained quiet, until Sasuke faced the others.
"As soon as everyone's good to go, we're going to get our friends back, no matter what the cost." Sasuke said before walking out of the tent. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
"Hey, that's what I said. How come you guys don't agree with me like that?" Naruto asked. He just heard murmurs of 'baka's. A couple of steps out of the tent Sasuke looked up to the night sky, only to see the moon covered by clouds.
"I won't let him hurt you." Sasuke promised aloud as he walked toward the training grounds.
Once Sasuke was out of sight, a lone figure leaning against the tent let out a sigh. "So this is what happens when I leave those kids alone. Seems like I have to do another solo quest again." Kakashi said with a sigh as he dropped off a medium sized leather bag outside of the tent. "Hold on Sakura, Hinata." Kakashi thought as he disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
"Is someone out here?" Sai asked stepping out of the tent. "Hm? What's this." Sai said picking up the leather bag. Opening it, he found two hand drawn, rolled maps. One seemed to lead somewhere, the other looked like a map to the inside of a castle. Sai turned the map over, his eyes widening when he saw what was written on the back. It read:...Akatsuki Base
------------------------------------------------------
"So that's all she's good for?" Sasori asked sitting across Itachi on a wooden chair. A fire was lit in the fireplace next to the two as their only light source. Light flickered around their bodies as the low howls of the wind outside blew cool breezes into the room.
"The rest is none of your concern." Itachi said as he placed another log into the fire.
"The wench's really annoying. I can't believe that she's capable of matching that Sannin's strength. I thought the legendary slug knight was dead decades ago." Sasori said, narrowing his eyes.
"Apparently not; she must have been trained by her. There is no other possibility; and because of that, she is the only other one with the medical skills needed in this guild." Itachi said before looking towards the wooden door. "What is it Kisame?"
The door was pushed open as the said person walked in.
"That dragon of yours is being a real bitch Itachi. Silence it before I make it." Kisame said with a growl.
"Hn." Itachi said before nodding towards Sasori. Sasori nodded back as Itachi left the room.
"I'll rest for the night. I suggest you do the same before your nightly patrol." Sasori said to Kisame before leaving the room.
"I'm on patrol again? You jackass." Kisame said as he put the fire out with a wave of his sword.
-----------------------------------------------------
"Eat up. It's not poisoned yeah." Deidara said. The food on both Sakura and Hinata's plates made their mouths water, but they were more afraid than hungry. A small loaf of bread with a turkey leg, and mash potatoes on the side, the aroma drove them crazy. With a sigh, Deidara took out his keys and opened Sakura's cell. Her eyes widened as he squatted right in front of her.
"I made this myself. I promise it's not poisoned or anything, see." Deidara said before ripping some of the bread and placed it in his mouth. He sampled each other food, showing that it was perfectly safe to eat. Convinced enough, Sakura grabbed the loaf of bread and took a bite out of it, Hinata mimicking her movements. Deidara smiled at their progress.
"Aw, come on, yeah." Deidara said watching the two eat with small bites. Both Hinata and Sakura stopped eating and looked at him. "You two are not in a royal castle or anything. Just eat like you would any other place. Plus I know my cooking is just as good as those chefs you're used to." Deidara then got a spoon full of mash potatoes and shoved it in Sakura's surprised mouth. "There, yeah." Deidara said with a smile. He then turned around and called out, "Hey Hinata-san, I'll come over there and feed you too if you keep eating like that!" Hinata just blushed before taking bigger bites.
"What's wrong with the way we eat?" Sakura asked, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.
"I'm not like the other guys here. You don't have to act so scared or anything around me. It's not fun, yeah." Deidara answered honestly. "Plus, I rather spend my extra time with you two rather than the non-social group above us. So let's be friends and be more comfortable around each other."
"Friends with prisoners?" Hinata asked, confused.
"I have no one else to talk with; and you two are fun to talk to." Deidara said with a smile. "But I don't suggest you guys do anything like this with the others around. Especially lord Uchiha. He has a major sword up his rear." Deidara then started to chuckle. Both Sakura and Hinata didn't know what to say, but they were starting to like Deidara, mainly because he reminded them of someone.
------------------------------------------------------
"Achoo!" Naruto sneezed.
"Don't tell me you're getting sick too." Tsunade said her eye twitching.
"Eh heh." Naruto said. "Hey, what are you doing?"
"I can't risk anything." Tsunade said before getting a spoon full of some black liquid from a bottle on the shelf.
"No no no no no! Not that shit-" but Naruto could finish his sentence as Tsunade shoved the substance down his throat.
------------------------------------------------------
Four Days Later...
"No, not like that Sakura-chan. Hold your sword with a tighter grip, and spread you legs apart more. I can knock you down easily, yeah." Deidara said helping Sakura and Hinata with their fighting stances. Both of them were outside their cells, something Deidara started to do since the second day they were in the castle. "Don't worry Hinata-san, you're doing great!"
Hinata blushed at the comment as she continued her exercises, Hyuuga style.
"Don't worry, you're getting it." Deidara said.
"Well that's thanks to you. Before me and Hinata had to teach ourselves. You're a great tutor at swordsmanship, almost like Kaka-I mean, one of our friends." Sakura finished off quickly. Friends, she may be with Deidara, but he was still the enemy, a nice guy, but the enemy nonetheless.
"Oh, thanks yeah." Deidara said with a smile before walking to Hinata. "Hyuuga style huh? You are the real princess, well that's good." He said with a smile.
"Why is that good?I still don't know why they kidnapped us." Sakura thought, but decided not to ask.
"Also some more Akatsuki members are coming, but I promise I'll come visit you two." Deidara said with a smile.
"I'll go get you two lunch, yeah." Deidara said as he relocked both girls in their cells. "I'll prepare something great today, I promise, yeah!" He promised before leaving.
"I can't wait, ne Sakura-chan?" Hinata said happily as she continued her exercises within her cell.
"Hey, Hinata-chan. We still have to get out of here. I can imagine how worried Neji-kun, Sai-kun, and the others must be by now." Sakura said in a low voice.
Hinata's happy demeanor soon turned serious to cheerless upon her realization with reality. "What should we do now that all our chakra's been replenished? Deidara said that some more Akatsuki were visiting tonight."
"We leave once they do." Sakura said with determination.
"Hai." Hinata agreed.
-----------------------------------------------------
"Are you sure these maps are accurate?" Shikamaru asked looking over the maps found in the leather bag.
"Who would leave them here?" Chouji asked.
"Could they have possibly infiltrate our camp without our notice?" Lee asked.
"Impossible. None of my insects found any trace of foreign substances." Shino said.
"Could they be from Kakashi? I mean we haven't seen him in a while." Kiba suggested. Akamaru barked supporting his master.
"Yes. I'm sure it was Kakashi who left these." Neji answered. "I asked him to get something like these as a favor; I didn't expect him to obtain it so quickly."
"Kakashi? Where is he now?" Naruto asked.
"That is what I'd like to know as well." Neji answered.
"He might have gone and betray-"
"No he wouldn't betray us Sasuke." Sai defended.
"Then would you care to explain his disappearance?" Sasuke asked.
"He might have gone to find Sakura-chan and Hinata-chan." Ino suggested.
"That could be a possibility, but right now we should concentrate on the task at hand." Shikamaru said. "If we follow this map, it should take us about four days to get there, if we don't counter any trouble."
"I say we go for it." Tenten spoke up.
"How can you be so sure tha-"
"It's the only lead we have Sasuke! And if this was really given by Kakashi, then I know that this map is real." Tenten argued. "Besides, we want to retrieve our comrades as soon as possible, do we not?"
"I agree!" Naruto yelled out.
"Troublesome." Shikamaru muttered.
"Hn." Neji nodded. They all looked to Sasuke. After a minute or so Sasuke finally made his decision.
"Round the horses, we're going to retrieve Sakura and Hinata from those bastards!" Sasuke said, everyone agreed.
---------------------------------------------------
"It seems as though they become very fond of you Deidara." A person spoke as Deidara finished placing the last of the mashed potatoes on the plate to his left.
"So? What is it to you, Kisame?" Deidara said.
"You shouldn't be close to the dead." Kisame said with humor in his voice. Deidara bent the iron ladle with his tightened grip as he placed it in a barrel of clean water.
"You do know what will happen if-"
"That is none of your concern!" Deidara growled.
"Don't make the same mistake twice. We don't want what happened last time to-"
"Silence yourself before I make you!" Deidara warned. The mouths on his hands already chewing on some explosive clay.
"You two. Whatever it is, stop. Our comrades have arrived." Itachi said before leaving the kitchen chamber.
"Hmph." Kisame with a smirk. He then left the room, leaving Deidara looking toward the floor.
Deidara gritted his teeth as both hands were in tight fists. He slammed his right hand onto the counter, making both dinner plates jump. "Kuso." He muttered before recomposing himself. "It won't happen again this time...especially not with them." Deidara thought before taking hold of both plates.
---------------------------------------------------
"Ok Hinata-chan, you remember the plan right?" Sakura whispered.
"Hai." Hinata said determined.
"Okay, we'll have to-" but Sakura quickly changed the subject as she heard footsteps coming toward the door.
"Lunch's is here, yeah!" Deidara called out.
"And that's why when a wound-Oh hey Deidara!" Sakura began.
"That looks wonderful!" Hinata commented truthfully.
"Your comments are always well appreciated milady." Deidara said in a mock formal manner. The three just laughed as Deidara served them their meals.
---------------------------------------------------
Late that night...
"Is everyone ready?" Neji said as he climbed onto his horse.
"Hai!" his knights chorused.
"Naruto, is everything in the camp secured?" Neji asked.
"Yup. Me, Sai, and Tenten, got everything set!" Naruto said.
"Naruto did you even bring-"
"Of course teme! I'm not dumb enough not to bring the maps." Naruto said throwing the maps to Sasuke.
"Alright, let's move!" Sasuke said as they rode off into the night.
---------------------------------------
"So when do we attack lord Uchiha?" An Akatsuki member who literally had a large fly trap around his head asked.
"Patience Zetsu, there is no rush." Itachi answered.
"Killing them off would be a simple matter. All I require is there blood to sacrifice them to my god, then Zetsu you may feast to your heart's content." Another Akatsuki member carrying a triple bladed scythe said.
"You can't possibly think I would let you have all the fun, Hidan." Kisame said with a smirk.
"You two stop before you pull more of us into this pointless conversation." Sasori warned.
"Nonetheless, the profits will be great." Hidan's partner Kazaku said.
"I agree. But do you even have the-"
"Yes, we have the girl, yeah." Deidara said, cutting Zetsu off.
Suddenly the doors busted open. Not one member even took a glance at the door, knowing who came late.
"Late once again, Tobi?" Itachi said in an emotionless tone.
"M-my pardons lord Uchiha. I-I-"
"Just sit down, yeah!" Deidara said in an annoyed tone.
"Deidara-sempai! It's been so long! Why did you leave me in the forest hideout for over a month I was waiting for you!" Tobi said as he sat down right next to the irritated clay master.
"He was trying to ditch you kid, now shut up!" Kisame said, gripping the handle on his sword.
"What?! Deidara-sempai, is that true?!" Tobi asked, whimpering.
"Enough of this." Itachi said, instantly bringing silence to the room. "Our plans and motives are simple enough to understand. We use the Hyuuga heiress to activate our weapon. According to the manuscripts, the girl will die after she uses the weapon three times. The distance in which the victims must be within is as far as her byakugan can see. That should be more than enough to bring down the knights of every country. That fool Orochimaru has done most of the work for us when we let him control multiple kingdoms. All we need to do is have all the knights in one area."
"A full scale war?" Sasori asked.
"Hn." Itachi nodded.
"What about your little brother and those other rebels that call themselves knights." Kisame asked.
"Who care about them. We can exterminate those runts anytime." Hidan said.
"Do not underestimate them." Itachi said, which raised some confusion in the room.
"You don't want to hurt your little brother; do you still believe your brother can be a threat?" Tobi asked. Everyone twitched at Tobi's question. As the newest member, Tobi didn't know anything about the relationship of Itachi and Sasuke.
"He was never a threat to begin with; but with his friends, they may prove to be an annoyance we can not overlook." Itachi answered in his usual calm tone, which erased all the tension recently built. "That is all for tonight, you may leave to your former duties." At this everyone disappeared in a cloud of smoke, including Itachi.
"Baka!" Deidara growled as he hit Tobi over the head with his fist, before leaving the room too.
"That idiot." Deidara muttered on his way to the dungeon.
"Deidara." Itachi said, causing Deidara to stop.
"Yes lord Uchiha?" Deidara said facing him.
"You will not see those two for the next two days, is that clear?" Itachi said.
"But, who's going to feed them, yeah?" Deidara asked, a little troubled with his order.
"You will not see those two for the next two days, is that clear?" Itachi merely repeated. Deidara nodded, looking at the floor. Itachi then began walking in the opposite direction.
"Kuso." Deidara muttered as he stepped away from the dungeon door and headed toward his room.
----------------------------------
"Sakura-chan, do you think something happened to Deidara at the meeting last night?" Hinata asked. "It's already sundown for today."
"I wouldn't worry your pretty little head about that." Kisame said kicking the door open. Both Sakura and Hinata quickly masked their chakra, something they both thanked Kakashi for in their minds. Kisame then approached Hinata's cell, and opened it.
"Hey! What do you think your doing?!" Sakura yelled running up to the bars in her cell.
"None of your business wench." Kisame said with a smirk as he grabbed Hinata by the shoulder. "Don't even try using your chakra, my samehada will just suck it right up."
"Unhand her!" Sakura yelled, very tempted to rip the bars out and attack the Akatsuki member. She was about to commit the very act if she wasn't stopped by Sasori. Chakra strings wrapped her hands behind her as she struggled to get loose.
"What are you doing here? I can take care of two women." Kisame said, irritated.
"If I hadn't stopped this one, there would have been some problems. A simple thank you would suffice." Sasori said. Kisame mumbled incoherent things as he lifted Hinata to her feet and dragged her out of the cell.
"Why you!" Sakura yelled before falling to the ground.
"Don't make me make these strings so tight that it cuts right through you." Sasori warned, her wrists already bleeding.
"Sakura-chan stop! It's ok, don't danger yourself further!" Hinata pleaded as she was taken out of the dungeon.
"Hinata-chan whatever you do don't-" but Sakura didn't finish as Sasori knocked her out.
"Annoying wench." Sasori said as he unwrapped his chakra strings from her hands and left the dungeon.
Hours later, Sakura woke up to find that it was already night after looking out a small crack in her cell.
"Hinata-chan!" Sakura said, remembering what happened. "I have to save her!"
Sakura then put chakra in her hands as she bent the bars wide enough to slip out. Running to the door, she put her ear on it to hear if anyone was on the other side of it. Finding the coast clear she slowly pushed the large wooden door open. Quietly stepping into the fire lit stone hallway, Sakura made a quick guess of which way to go.
"I wish I had Hinata-chan's byakugan right now." Sakura thought as she entered a fork in the hallway. Taking the left side, Sakura soon came across a metal door.
"If it's metal, then they have to be keeping something important inside." She convinced her self.
Taking a deep breath, Sakura pushed the door open. She slowly stepped inside, debating whether she should head back. The room was dark, but she could hear someone, or something breathing heavily on the other side of the large room. There was a large open window near the ceiling, giving Sakura only some moonlight to see the contents of the room. Looking more to where she heard the breathing, she could of sword she saw something huge move.
Petrified, Sakura tried to head back, but the metal door slammed shut from a strong gust of wind. Hearing a shuffle of coins the room suddenly lit up from torches around the room. Sakura didn't even question how the room was lit up as she was too preoccupied with the chained dragon laying on a huge mount of treasure in front of her.
-----------------------------------
"Already one day and we run into these idiots. This is ridiculous!" Sai said as he slashed through a couple Sound Knights.
"Well it was Naruto's decision to come this way!" Kiba yelled.
"Shut it dog boy!" Naruto called out as he kicked one knight in the gut.
"We don't have time for this. It's going to take us another day if they keep coming like this!" Tenten said as she blocked a sword with her two swords.
"Just finish off these guys and let's keep moving!" Neji said as he shot an arrow through two Sound knights.
-----------------------------------
"Oh my god." Sakura muttered as she walked backwards into the door.
Smoke drifted from the dragons nostrils as its piercing yellow eyes centered at her.
"Don't be scared, don't be scared. It can tell if I'm terrified! Calm down, oh my god calm down!" Sakura repeated to herself.
She let out a yelp as he dragon stood up. She shut her eyes waiting for the blast of flames, knowing she had no room to escape, but it never came. Instead she heard a small wail of pain coming from the beast as it laid back down on its mount of treasure.
"What the?" Sakura muttered. She then finally saw that the dragon was completely chained from head to tail with diamond chains. It had an iron muzzle preventing it from even breathing normally. Some of the old cracked diamond chains left multiple cuts on the dragon, letting new blood wash over the dried on its scales.
Though she was scared, she felt sorry for the poor thing. The medic in her unconsciously brought her closer to the beast. The dragon let out a warning growl but Sakura ignored it.
"If you can understand me at all, then I want you to know that I only want to look at your wounds. I think I can heal them." Sakura said. The dragon continued to send her warnings of it about to attack.
"Oh god, I can't believe I'm trying to talk to you like you understand me. I think that I finally lost it." Sakura said. The dragon let out a snort. "Hey! That's nothing to snort about!...Wait, understood me?!" The dragon gave no response.
"Che, what a jerk." Sakura said. The dragon turned it's head and grunted. "Ok, this time I'm sure you know what the hell I'm saying." She said pointing at the dragon, but it gave no response.
"Don't play dumb! I know you can somewhat understand me! Anyways, since I know you do, you wouldn't mind letting me see some of your serious cuts. It'll help the both of us, cause I hate the smell of blood." Sakura said. The dragon merely blinked at her.
"Yeah, I really lost it." Sakura said as she was about to head back to the metal door, but she stopped when she heard the dragon shift it's position. The dragon laid on its side and lifted its left wing up to reveal a deep gash more than five feet in length.
"Ouch." Sakura thought. Walking toward the dragon cautiously, watching for any suspicious movement, she finally made it to the wound.
"Oh no, it's infected. How can the Akatsuki treat you like this." Sakura said. Forming a couple of hand signs, Sakura began working on the gash.
"This might hurt a little, I need to take out the blood from the infected area so don't do anything rash." Sakura instructed. After about a half an hour Sakura healed the wound to perfection. "Now that wasn't so bad, and I have more than three quarters of my chakra still. At least I know my medical abilities are still just as good."
Pondering on that thought she didn't even realize when the dragon's head was right next to her.
"Ahhh!" she screamed before covering her own mouth. She was frozen in place not knowing what the dragon would do. "I so stupid! How could I let myself trust a freaken dragon! From the Akatsuki no less! If Sasuke got wind of this I-Oh my god, HINATA-CHAN!!!! How could I-" but sakura's thoughts were interrupted when the dragon began nuzzling her shoulder.
"I'd take that as a thank you?" Sakura said with a smile. She then stepped away from the mount of treasure.
"Well I helped you a little, now to save Hinata-chan and get the hell out of here." Sakura said as she headed toward the door.
"I don't think so." A voice said from behind her. Sakura heart skipped a beat as she turned and looked at the corner of the room she never noticed behind the dragon.
"Strange how you escaped the dungeon without anyone's notice as well as gain Katsu's trust. But even with all that, your luck will now come to an end." The man said as he calmly approached her.
"Uchiha Itachi..."
