Chapter three: "I am what?"
"Have you made up your mind yet?" Itachi looked at me. Sasuke didn't get it at all. "What is he talking about?" Somehow I couldn't answer Itachi or Sasuke. Itachi grinned a bit. "Maybe you'll be interested once you know what I have to offer." Sasuke looked at me. "What is he talking about? Tell me!" Still I couldn't say a thing. I had no idea what to say. "Have you ever wondered who you really are, and where you really came from?" Itachi once again, sat down like he had something big to say. "What..? O-of course... but not from you..." I had no idea what to say else. "You're special, Ayame. Never noticed some differences? Something like, being able to tell when someone would attack, being able to learn new moves very fast. And most off all, isn't it right that you are able to make your chakra level higher?" A bit shocked I looked at him. "How.. do you know that..?" Itachi just raised his shoulders. "Come with me, and I'll tell you everything." But suddenly Sasuke stood in front of me. "She will never go with someone like you." I had no idea what to do or say, so I just looked at Sasuke and Itachi. "Let her decide herself worthless brother. I bet she wants to get away from you. " Even though his eyes looked like he grinned, his face showed no emotions. His eyes looked at me, like they were looking right trough me. "I know you want to know who you are, my sweet Ayame. All you have to do is come with me, and it'll be all clear." Sasuke grabbed my wrist. "Go get the Hokage. Let her know Akatsuki is here." He pushed me a bit towards the door, but my legs didn't move. "How do you know all this Itachi?" I said that without thinking, and Itachi noticed, since he smirked. "You're very precious to a lot of people Ayame. Almost every town knows you're special. Even this town knows, they just don't want to tell you. But I do want to tell you everything." He hold up his hand, like I was supposed to grab it. Sasuke couldn't believe I actually asked that. "Are you nuts? You're an ANBU, he's Akatsuki! It is your duty to get the Hokage, now!" I looked at Sasuke. "Oh shut up. Go get her yourself if you really want her here." My eyes widen, and I couldn't believe I said that. But somehow, it felt good. It felt like I had to do that a long time ago. "What.. did you say?" He glared at me. "Have something in your ears little brother? She won't go away." Itachi walked closer to me, and it almost seemed like he grinned a bit. "Come with me Ayame, and I will let you know. And that way.." He started. "That way the Hokage can no longer lie to you. This way you will get the respect you earn." I looked at him. "Respect...?" Itachi nodded. "Yes. No one will talk to you like you're worth nothing. We will all see you as an equal." He hold his hand out to me. "That does sound awesome.." I looked at him, and raised my hand. "But you're still Akatsuki." I quickly grabbed a kunai and hold it against his throat. "I told you Sasuke. You already were supposed to get the Hokage." Itachi sighted. "You disappoint me Ayame. I thought you wanted to leave this place." I raised my shoulders. "Maybe. But not with someone from Akatsuki. " Sasuke grinned. "I knew you wouldn't go with him." Then he ran away, to get the Hokage.
