"Itachi-san doesn't seem...normal" Hinata couldn't help the frown on her lips as she rocked back and forth on her heels. Sasuke kicked up a bit of dirt as he swung on the swing at a leisurely pace.
"When has he ever been normal" She couldn't help notice the way he stared bitterly down at the lines he was creating with his toes.

"Wouldn't it have been easier to cut her legs off? She's going to wake up eventually" A chilling voice sounded in Hinata's ears. She couldn't actually tell where the voice was coming from or if it even existed at all.
"We'll be back soon" Came the voice of someone familiar. Maybe her situation wasn't as hopeless as it seemed but the first comment made her think otherwise.
Her eyes twitched open then and she would have smiled in relief if the action didn't cause a sharp jolt of pain to run through her head. A gasp left her mouth and she tried to pull her hands up to clutch at the pain but it seemed that only her eyes would work at the moment.
"Good morning, hime" that horrible voice was a lot closer than she originally thought. Her eyes strained to see the face of that voice but a bamboo hat blocked her view. After watching for a few more moments she decided to look down at the object she was being carried on.
She recognized the enormous bandaged sword almost immediately and a new kind of terror bloomed in her already weak heart. The familiar sting of tears caused her to grit her teeth and hold back a sob.

"This isn't the time to cry about your situation, whats happened has happened and you need to deal with it" Neji's cold voice rang through the open field as Hinata held her bleeding knee. Her continued sniffling and trembling lips forced Neji to walk over to her and bend down.
"The bleeding will stop Hinata-sama" He pulled a roll of gauze from his pouch on his upper thigh and ripped a reasonable length piece off. With his Byakugan off, the boy wrapping her wound seemed a lot more approachable and her sobs died down.
"I might have gone a bit too far"
His strained tone betrayed his calm demeanor and she instantly knew that he was hopelessly frustrated with her. The pain in her knee seemed father away now that she was focused on the words he was telling her and the aggravation behind them.
He stood and glanced down at her, obviously waiting for her. She hopped up immediately, as if the injury was already healed.
"Show me again" She straitened out her back and looked at him with determined eyes.
The twitch of a faint smile on his lips caused her to raise her palms up again, her eyes blazing.
"Of course Hinata-sama"

"We should stop" The other voice that Hinata couldn't seem to figure out spoke again. The irritated growl that came from who she assumed was Kisame, caused another stabbing pain to cut into her skull.
"You said we were close" Kisame adjusted the sword on his shoulders and a groan left Hinata's mouth. She would choose another hit to a tree than suffer through an obvious concussion.
"2 days seems close enough"
She sighed as she let her head fall, there was no use trying to keep it up with the little energy she possessed at the moment.
"Oi, hime are you dead?" The chuckle that left the shark mans mouth was anything but pleasant. He jolted the sword a little bit for affect and it caused her to jolt her head back up. She mustered up what she hoped was a nasty glare that was directed at the back of his head.
When he turned to glance back at her, she confirmed his identity from the blue-grey skin of his face.
"What a shame. I was curious to see if Hyuga blood is white too." Another string of chuckles left his mouth.
"Aren't you curious too, Itachi?" This set of chuckles were drowned out by Hinata's loud heartbeat in her ears.
Itachi?
A painful, almost unreal pain rippled through her chest and for a moment she thought the shark man might have gave into his curiosities. The tears she was holding back now flowed freely down her face.
The thought of Itachi being here with this monster and working together left a bitter taste in her mouth.
"You're talking too much"
His voice was clear now; clear enough that she wondered how exactly she couldn't have recognized him.
"Itachi-san" Her voice sounded so weak in that moment and she cursed herself for letting her heart take over.
It was silent for a few moments before the blaze of his eyes were inches away from her own. She didn't even have time to gasp before his genjutsu caught her.
