A/N: anything between brackets is the author shedding light on the truth.


Behold! The day of eternal yearning has dawned upon us! ヽ(`Д´)ノ

Our valiant heroine, adorned in her resolute grace, stands defiantly before the formidable and daunting members of her beloved's clan. (°□° )

She commands silence with her steely gaze, shaking them one by one to submit to her aweing presence! (ಠ益ಠ)

(Itachi standing behind her was the one giving out the effective stare downs, and Shisui was doing the same thing.)

Unyielding in her determination to commit to their minds that she would become their queen… (︶︿︶)

(She would just become the wife to their leader-to-be, but Ino needed a more exaggerated stance)

She clears her throat, for within this moment, she prepares to unleash upon the world the most enthralling oration of her existence, one that shall serve as an unyielding testament to her unwavering loyalty to Itachi, and by extension, to the very souls that compose this revered clan. (ง'̀-'́)ง

Ino: "Many of you may be curious, and others shocked as to why I stand before you looking as I am today…"

(They were neither. Annoyed would be the more accurate description to their current mood.)

Ino: "I am Ino Yamanaka, as you well know, daughter of Inoichi Yamanaka and heiress to our clan. Though my loyalty to my clan would never waver and cannot be questioned, this does not mean that I wouldn't be just as loyal to you all! The day I marry Itachi, would be the day our clans unite as one…"

In their very eyes, flickering like ethereal flames, she discerns the reflection of her own indomitable spirit. And lo, a symphony of captivation begins, as her words dance upon the airwaves, weaving a tapestry of enchantment, spellbinding each and every member of the clan. Triumph is assured. ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )

(Itachi and Shisui had their Mangekyo on. The spellbinding and enchanting was kind of forced…)

Ino: "Just as the Uchiha, we Yamanaka take pride in our appearance. Our long blond hair is just as much a prominent symbol of our clan as our crest is! And your dark shades are a majestic emblem, bearing profound significance to the Uchiwa on your backs…"

Ah, yes, our heroine has demonstrated a splendid display of understanding among her future brethren. ~(˘▾˘~)

Ino: "While I would still have to earn my right to bare your crest on my back, I have chosen to show my loyalty to you as I appear today. I set aside one half of myself to take on the half that is to be my future and yours, in hopes that I would one day earn your trust…"

*Pauses for dramatic effect*

o_O

*Crowd doesn't react*

Perhaps they hadn't realized her speech was over?

Ino: "Thank you"

*Crowd makes subtly approving noises*

There it is! (ง'̀-'́)ง

A chorus of hushed whispers, rumbling grumbles, and nods of resounding approval ripple through the air, a melodic cadence that echoes with the undeniable truth—she has triumphed! (╯°Д°)╯

In the wake of her impassioned words, she has stirred the dormant embers within their hearts, igniting a fervour that resonates in every fibre of their beings. ヽ(`Д´)ノ

The collective voice of the clan, conveyed through those murmurs and affirming nods, becomes a harmonious testament to her resounding victory—their hearts now aligned, their allegiance firmly pledged, for she has conquered their souls with her eloquence and conviction. (ノಥ益ಥ)

(The Uchihas reaction was whispered murmurs, and subtle nods of approval, but again, Ino exaggerated the situation. Also, it was a reaction instigated by Itachi and Shisui's powerful genjutsu…)

Her victory has rewarded Itachi that night. (^_^ )

Ino basked in the intoxicating embrace of acceptance from the revered Uchiha clan, her heart aflame with the belief that she had finally transcended into their inner circle. (˘▾˘ )

Adorned in raven-black tresses, clad in a provocative ensemble of fiery red lingerie, and donning custom made Sharingan lenses, she fearlessly mounted his powerful chariot of desire, and enchanted his senses until he fell into a Tsukuyomi of her making; a sex induced reverie. ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )

(Itachi had no regrets for using his genjutsu…)

The end! ヽ(˘ Д ˘)ノ
