A:N/ I am so sorry for the long wait but I've been having trouble on how to continue it. I'm thinking of making Hinata dark but she will still have some kindness in her. So if you can please leave me a review and tell me what you think. Should I make Hinata dark or not? And If do make her dark its gonna be a little later in the story.

Normal POV
It was the middle of the night and Hinata kept on tossing and turning. She was covered in sweat and not having a very pleasant dream at all.
DREAM
Hinata's POV
I opened my eyes and looked up to see the Konoha gate about a couple meters away. It was a sunny day and I couldn't help but smile I was finally home. I ran towards the gate to greet Kotetsu and Izumo but I stopped dead in my track. There on the floor laid both Kotetsu and Izumo dead. They had Kunai Knives sticking out of there body and a big cut on their neck. Suddenly it wasn't bright anymore. The sun was gone and the sky was blood red, the full moon somewhat covered by clouds, was the only light. I kept walking, passing dead villagers on the way. The deeper I went in the more gruesome it looked. I felt like throwing up at the sight before me, but I couldn't stop, I just kept walking. Tears were already falling from my eyes. Who would do such a thing? I have never seen so much….death in my life, and it scared me. Is this what ninja do? I was brought back to reality when I heard footsteps. I looked ahead of me and saw a girl. She looked about 16 years of age, long dark blue hair that reached mid-waist, and pale skin. Even though I was looking at her back I can see she had what looked like a fox mask, black ninja sandals, and a big black cloak with red clouds that covered her body. She kept on walking and I followed her. Finally she stopped at the entrance of Konoha Park. I kept on walking towards her in a daze. Now that I was near her I could see her more clearly, which I wish I hadn't. She had blood stains all over her cloak and in her bloodied hands she had a kunai, dripping with fresh blood. She looked at me even though I couldn't see her, because of the mask, then she looked ahead of us and into the park. I also looked up ahead and felt my heart skip a beat. There in the middle of the grass laid 11 bodies, motionless. I slowly began to walk up to them. The first I saw was Choji, Sasuke, and Shikamaru they had a wound on their chest from what looked like a kunai. Then I passed Shino Kiba, and Akamaru they had senbons all over their bodies. I continued walking and saw Lee, Sakura, and Ino they had their necks cut and blood was still oozing out. When I reached the last three people I began to tear up even more that I fell to the ground next to the bodies, Tenten, Neji and Naruto. They looked like they have been stabbed multiple times and had blood stains all over their clothes. I couldn't believe this. My cousin, my best friend, and the person I admire the most were all gone, along with my other friends. After crying for what seemed like forever I turned around to the girl that was now about 3 feet away from me, crouching down. "W-why w-would you d-do this to e-everyone, to m-my f-friends?"
The older girl in front of me took off the white mask that also had some blood on it. Once the mask was off I still wasn't able to see her face completely, because she had white bandages covering her eyes, but I did see a small smile on her face. She began to take off her bandages from her eyes. Once they were finally off, her eyes were still closed. Then she slowly opened them. My eyes widened and I felt my heart stop completely.
DREAM End
Normal POV
Hinata woke with a jolt. She looked around the dark room and began to silently cry, her body shaking in fear. Suddenly Itachi came in with a kunai knife ready in hand.
"What's wrong Hinata-hime?"
She looked up at him with teary eyes, "I-I want to go home, b-back to my f-friends."
Itachi sighed. He knew something like this was going to happen. He put the kunai knife on the desk and walked towards her bed. He sat down and pulled Hinata onto his lap, letting her sob into his shirt. He ran his fingers through her smooth hair in a soothing manner, trying to calm her down. After Hinata's sobbing stopped, they stayed like that until Itachi broke the silence.
"I'm sorry Hinata-hime but you are way too important for us to just let you go."
Hinata pulled away to protest but was staring in awe at Itachi's eyes. They were a blood red color with a black circle with three spikes coming out of it. (A/N: didn't know any other way of describing it :P)
Without even realizing it, Hinata was trapped in a genjutsu. "Hinata forget about your past. Forget about Konoha, your family, and your friends. We are your family that loves you and we will always protect you, now sleep."
When Itachi released the genjutsu, Hinata went limp in his arms, fast asleep. He continued to run his fingers through her hair.
"I'm sorry Hinata-hime, but it's better if you don't remember anything." He laid her under the blankets. He gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Goodnight Hinata-hime." Once he closed the door he saw Kisame leaning on his door.
"So what happened to Hinata? I heard a small scream."
"Did anyone else hear?" Itachi questioned, leaning on Hinata's door.
Kisame shook his head, "Nahh, there rooms are farther up the hall so I doubt they can hear anything."
Itachi just nodded.
"So, you erased her memories?" Itachi tiredly sighed.
"Look Kisame I will tell everyone in the morning what I did. I'm too tired to explain anything right now. I guess using the Mangekyou Sharingan wore me out."
Kisame nodded in understanding. "Okay, goodnight Itachi. Try to get some sleep will ya?"
Itachi nodded before going to his room and lying down, not even bothering to cover himself with his blankets. He was still feeling guilty about erasing Hinata's memories. He sighed and just tried to get some rest. 'Tomorrow was going to be a long day.' With that thought in mind he drifted off to sleep.
The next day
Itachi POV
It was 5 in the morning and I had told Kisame to call everyone into the meeting room for important news. I still wonder why I even decided to tell them this early in the morning. Maybe it was because I couldn't sleep. 'Ya, that's probably it' I thought to myself nodding my head. The sound of the door opening brought me back to reality and I saw everybody coming in. They were all in there 'pjs' which by 'pjs' I mean there boxers, except for Konan who had a nightgown. When they were all seated I wasn't surprised to hear Hidan whine.
"What's the big idea Itachi? Waking us up at 5 in the morning when some of us are really tired from missions." Some nodded their heads and yawned in agreement. Before I opened my mouth to explain my reason Konan spoke for me.
"Shut up Hidan this may be important, it's not always we wake up this early." She looked at me. "So, by any chance does this have to do with Hinata?" Everyone who had their heads on the table about to drift off to sleep perked up at the name and were all staring at me intently, even Nagato.
"Yes Konan it is about Hinata. You see, in the middle of the night I heard her scream so I went to her room and saw her curled up and cryin-" Konan stopped me.
"Is she okay? What happened? Did Hidan scare her?"
Hidan was about to say something back but I cut him off.
"Yes she is fine." Konan sighed in relief.
"Anyways, when I asked her what was wrong she said she wanted to go home."
Tobi who had been quite for most of the time began to cry. "Tobi doesn't want Hianta-hime to leave." Deidara who was close to Tobi patted his back.
"It's okay Tobi I want Hinata to stay here too."
Konan, who was looking at Tobi crying, looked back at me with a worried expression. "So…what did you do?"
I sighed for what seemed like the 10th time. "I…..I erased her memories. She doesn't remember anything about Konoha, her family, or her friends. She only knows that we are her family."
Nagato, who was quiet this whole time, spoke up "It is better that she doesn't know of her past. That way she won't have something clouding her mind and preventing her from becoming stronger and reaching our goal. If she does not get stronger than she is of no use to us." He turned his back to us and began to walk away only to stop at the door. "So, treat her as a sibling and train her well, for she will be our most powerful weapon yet." With that said he left.
I couldn't help but flinch at the word 'weapon'. I felt even guiltier at knowing that the only reason I brought Hinata was to help capture a Jinchuriki. 'What have I gotten you into Hinata-hime?' I felt like crying right at the spot, which was really unusual for me since I'm not one to show much emotion. But how can you not feel like crying when you brought an innocent soul to the darkness. Hinata would have had a better life if I left her. I mean sure her father wasn't the best but she could have stayed with a friend and lived happily with them. But no I brought her into this mess and there was no way of getting out.
I was brought back to reality when I heard the shuffling of the other people in the room who were getting out of their seats to go to bed, Tobi yelling happily about Hinata not leaving him. Once they were all out I was left alone with Konan.
"Konan, did I do the right thing of bringing Hinata into this? Showing her how cruel we really are?" I looked up at her awaiting her answer.
She gave me a gentle smile.
"I'm not sure Itachi, but look at it this way. You brought a light to our darkened hearts. Most of us have come from broken pasts, some more heartbreaking than others, which caused us to make wrong decisions. But now you brought someone who can show us out of the darkness, someone we can love and give our own life away just to save them. Think of Hinata as our savior, someone who can love us and take care of us and bring warmth to our hearts.
By the time Konan was done with her little speech I was speechless.
"Wow Konan. Thank you it actually really helped." I gave her a small smile.
"You're welcome; now let's go sleep for a little longer. Today is going to be a busy day and I'm going to take Hinata shopping, and you're coming with me." She grinned.
I nodded then it dawned on me on what she said. I was at loss of words. "Wait what? Why me? Why not take Tobi?"
She began to walk out of the room. "Because Tobi attracts too much attention and is really annoying in mornings."
With that said I was left to myself in the meeting room. I walked out grumbling about Konan being unfair of taking me to go shopping. Once I got into my room I laid in my comfy bed darkness consuming me.
So what you think? Was it to rushed? Confusing? Boring? I know Itachi is OOC but common he is 13. Oh and if you didn't notice I changed Hinata's age to 9. So ya. Again sorry for the long wait and lets pray I update soon.
So please R&R bye!
