Chapter 10- I Miss You
(Blink 182)
-sigh- Time to bring the fanfic to an end. My first finished one!
Hans: Umm, perhaps that person was the only one reviewing, perhaps people came across it, read a chapter, and hated it, or even they read it and figured someone else would review. I don't know, I will never know, and it was not your place to write what you said. I will accept flames if you tell me why it was bad, but your 'That fact there's only one person reviewing should tell you something...' Is pathetic, and I shouldn't beacknowledging it, but I am. Feel honored.
DreamingIn2Eternity: Ummm… Okay? I write whatever comes to mind. Thanks for the last part. I'll end the fic in honor of you.

Itachi ran. He didn't remember for how long, but he did. He ran to escape, both living chasers, and dead. He ran to escape the ANBU of Konoha who chased him, and the voices that surrounded him. He knew that he was to meet with Madara at the border of Ame, the Rain, but with the noise pounding at his head, the never-ending headache, he barely remembered the orders.
'Nii-san, train with me!'
'I know what you're planning. I want in.'
'Would you like to get some dango, Itachi-chan? I know you think you're too old, but…'
'As expected of my son.'
'Bye Itachi-kun, I'll see you when the mission's done. Wish me luck!'
'Oh, my little cousin. I know you saved many, but you sacrificed many as well. Are you sure you've thought it through?' The last voice was not a memory. It spoke, as if next to him. Of his brother, his ancestor, his mother, and his father, only one voice stood out. Why was that?
Why did only Shisui stand out?
He had been able to kill everyone –but his brother- so shouldn't Sasuke's voice have been the one to follow? Why did his best friend's come only?
He did not find out until after death.
"Little cousin, I've been waiting for you." A- no, THE voice said as he awoke. He was next to a river, but he didn't bother to look for landmarks.
"I've been calling out for you, but you always dismissed me as a voice. Idiot." He received a hit on the head from a seventeen year old Shisui. Itachi smiled down at his friend.
"Not so little now, am I?"
"Baka. C'mon, Obito's waiting. So are your parents."
"Let's." Though Itachi wouldn't understand for a long, long time why they had forgiven him in death so easily.

This is a mixed one, angst and humor. I swear, I would've ended the fic with humor (just keep switching through songs) had I not seen that dead kitten… poor thing…
