Chapter 4:
Amnesia

Naruto woke up with a headache. His body turned and his hand grabbed a fluffy white pillow and buried his head on the silky bed.

Wait just a darn minute!

Fluffy white pillow? Silky bed? Expensive smelling pajamas? Naruto looked around the room and then it hit him… where was he? He stood up and was already about to open the door when it was opened by another person.

Naruto stared at the man in front of him. Jet black hair, pale skin, blood red eyes and black cloak with red clouds, he looked like someone he knew, he just couldn't remember the name "Umm… Ano sa… but who are you?" The blond boy dumbly asked

"You forgot about me? Naru-kun, that's so mean of you." The other man responded coldly but with a hint of amusement in his voice

"I'm really sorry." The younger boy scratched the back of his head while slightly laughing "I don't even know where am I nor remember why I'm here."

Naruto tilted his head a little to the left "Come to think of it… I don't even know my name."

The missing-nin in front of Naruto went to sit down on one of the sofa and motioned to the blue eyed boy to do the same. Naruto, knowing nothing, followed what Itachi told him to do.

"The doctor said you'll be fine. I didn't think that the accident will erase your memories." the older Uchiha began lying

"Accident? Why? What happened to me?" Naruto asked in surprise

"You fell from a tree." Itachi reasoned out flatly

"Eh? Why would I be on a tree?" the blond boy became more confused

"Because you're a ninja." He looked at Naruto to see the boy's reaction

"I'm a ninja?! No way! I didn't know I was sooo cool! Tell me more! Tell me more!" he began jumping on the sofa

"Enough talk. Follow me." Itachi stood up and walked outside the room with Naruto trailing behind him.

They walked through the dark hallway. Naruto walked behind the Uchiha, silently watching him from the corner of his eyes. He couldn't remember who the guy was and where he's taking him but the only thing that keeps him from following was because he felt safe and secured not that it mattered anyway. Although there's something about this person that changed, from Naruto's opinion.

"Ano sa…" He whispered

"Hn?" Itachi responded without looking at the other boy

"You've gotten taller, so much taller… which is really unfair and your skin is paler than usual. And what happened to your eyes? You don't usually stay up at night… where did you get those eye bags?" Naruto asked thoughtfully

"Really? I thought I haven't changed since I left." The missing-nin replied

"left?" The blond boy tilted his head to the left emphasizing his confusion

"My village. I left."

"Really? Why? Did something bad happened?" Naruto's voice raised a little

"As far as I could remember… No." For awhile Naruto was silent, trying to think of another question to keep their conversation going.

"Hmm… I really couldn't remember your first name. But I could still recall your surname." Itachi looked at the boy behind him upon hearing the statement Naruto couldn't be this strong. I made sure that my jutsu will seal all of his memories as well as the Kyuubi. but like a normal Uchiha, he kept his face expressionless.

"Really? Care to take a guess?" he smirked at the loud boy in front of him

"Hm… I think it's.. well, I'm sure it starts with a 'U'… hmm… U… U… ah! I know… your surname is Uchiha! I'm right, am I?" He grinned

"Yeah. In fact you're right." He continued smirking at him

"And I don't know… but I have a feeling your first name starts with a 'S'… it's just really--" He was cut off before he could say another word

"Wrong. It starts with an 'I'"

"Really? Oh well, I'm just guessing remember… oh, and what's your name?" The Kyuubi vessel smiled

"Itachi."

Naruto just nodded

"Oh… and I forgot to point out. Your attitude changed, cause you used to angst 24/7 before." Itachi became quite interested in what Naruto was talking about

"I used to angst?"

"Yeah… Talking about killing your brother and reviving your clan and stuff like that. Good thing you quitted being an avenger, cause it's really annoying you know." The older Uchiha was taken aback by the information

"Okay then. Let's continue walking."

Again, they walked passing a lot of doors in a very long hallway. But Naruto walked beside the other man rather than staying behind him. He felt a little bit closer to him since they talked in a light manner awhile ago.

"We're here." Announced the older guy

Naruto looked at a big room. It was the last room in the very long hallway. The room was clean, big and spacious although it's appliances were complete. On the right side lies a small kitchen, dinning table and chairs, then at the center, a sofa, a coffee table and a television set. on the left side, there's two doors. He figured it must be the bedroom and bathroom. But why were they here? He looked at the other man with a questioning look.

"You're giving me this room?" Naruto asked in disbelief, there's no way he's giving me this place. It's freaking awesome !!! As Naruto put it.

"I'm not giving you this room--"

Naruto's smile fell

"Because this room belongs to you in the first place. I knew you forgot about it as well."Again, Itachi lied while Naruto beamed, running inside the big room, and checking things out.

"I'll leave you here for awhile. I'll be back later." Itachi closed the door after he heard Naruto's response.

Itachi left the blond boy in his 'own' room and went downstairs to talk to someone. He searched the first floor and saw the man he was looking for. He walked towards him and announced his presence with a 'hn'.

"Is the Kyuubi-boy here?" The shark man, a.k.a. Kisame said

"He's upstairs." He answered in his usual tone

"You know, what you're doing is dangerous right? It's way too risky." Kisame laughed a little knowing what he said probably pissed Itachi off.

"Keeping Naruto isn't dangerous, he's childish after all."

"Yes, but keeping Naruto for yourself is." Ha! In your face Itachi! How do you respond to that!

"Who said I'm keeping him for myself?" Itachi raised an eyebrow

"No one. Since it's pretty obvious. Really… you wouldn't lie that much just to make him stay. After all, you knew that your little brother will be going after him right? My, my, you weren't thinking again… and let me guess you said you're a sweet brother of his just to get his atten--" Kisame's ranting was stopped by a Itachi's sudden response

"He doesn't remember anything."

"Say what?!" Kisame's face clearly showed a 'WTF' expression

"I made him lose his memory, the problem is--"

"Is what?"

"He thought I was Sasuke, that foolish little brother of mine."

"And I thought things couldn't get more complicated and worse than before. What are you planning to do?" Kisame said as he walked towards the exit of the building

"He'll stay." The Uchiha stated

"Fine. Just remember, Naruto isn't part of our mission right now. And it's not us who should be capturing him."

"I know." Kisame just sighed knowing that he's just wasting his time since Itachi's not listening to anything he's saying.

As Itachi and Kisame talked about the 'keeping Naruto Issue' things weren't going well in Konoha, especially after Sasuke discovered that Naruto was missing since he left the training grounds. He had this nagging feeling that told him something was wrong, but thinking that nothing could actually go wrong especially about the blonde, because he'd been watching him from a long time except that morning.

He was wrong… He was so wrong.

Right now, Tsunade already gave a signal that if Naruto didn't show up the next morning they're gonna search the whole Konoha and the wide forest around it.
