Itachi's Promise: Forty-Five
"Not a bad idea, considering," Itachi said.
"Considering what?" Sasuke asked, looking at Itachi and hoping this couldn't get any better.
"Considering it was Naruto's idea," Itachi answered, disappearing from his seat as Sasuke jumped at him.
Itachi appeared over the other side of the room, nearby Naruto smirking. Sasuke growled for a second and then sighed and looked at his brother.
"Your not marrying Sakura," Sasuke told Itachi.
"Why not?" Itachi asked seriously.
"She's like a sister to me, fuck, she should be like a sister to you," Sasuke wanted to shout.
"Sasuke, she was. But things change, my feelings for her have changed," Itachi replied.
"Itachi…" Sasuke began, lost for words.
"I know, but nothing will change…well heaps will change but Sakura will always be your teammate and friend," Itachi answered.
It was then Tsunade choose to walk in the room; Itachi and Sasuke shut up and looked at Tsunade. Tsunade walked to where Itachi had been seated and sat down, looking at Sakura.
"You better take care of my assistant," Tsunade ordered, talking to Itachi.
"Of course," Itachi replied.
"Sasuke, you better kill him if he hurts her," Tsunade told Sasuke.
"Of course, Tsunade," Sasuke answered.
"Oh and I forgot your mother is looking for you, Uchihas," Tsunade told Sasuke and Itachi.
"Naruto stay with Sakura, we will return one day," Itachi said, totally unsure of when he will be returning with his mum now around.
Sasuke and Itachi walked away; the two brothers exited the hospital and ran across the room tops. Itachi led the way to the Uchiha compound, when the two Uchiha reached the Uchiha compound every single Uchiha was rushing about. Itachi looked at Sasuke and stepped into the busy compound.
"Boys, where have you been?" Mikoto asked, walking across the compound to her two boys.
"In the hospital with Sakura," Itachi answered, Mikoto looked at Itachi and nodded in understanding.
"I just need you to do a few things," Mikoto told her boys.
"Of course," Sasuke answered, Mikoto smiled and took her sons' hands and dragging them in the main Uchiha house, their house.
"Sasuke, Itachi, I want all the sheets and mattresses out of all the room and brought outside," Mikoto ordered, Sasuke and Itachi quickly did as their mum had asked and watched as she dropped the sheets in a tube of warm water and began to hit the mattresses.
Sasuke watched his mum and thought for a second of his dad and realised he hadn't scene him.
"Where is Dad?" Sasuke asked.
Mikoto froze for a second and then looked back at Sasuke and Itachi; Mikoto opened her mouth to say something but the words wouldn't come out.
""What is it mum?" Itachi asked.
"Your father is working with Madara," Mikoto answered, the two brothers stared at there mum.
Itachi and Sasuke stood silently not knowing whether to smile or feel sad.
"Why is he working with Madara?" Itachi asked, Mikoto shook her head in un-knowing.
Hospital – Sakura's Room
"Madara is still out there; soon he may coming looking for Sakura or the Uchiha clan," Tsunade said.
"I know," Naruto replied, knowing this wasn't the end and there was still Madara to deal with.
"Shhh," Sakura whispered, her eyes not open and her body not moving apart from her mouth.
"Itachi," Kisame called, landing on the window edge and looking into the room.
"He's at the Uchiha compound," Tsunade told Kisame.
Kisame was then gone; Kisame called all the Akatsuki to the Uchiha compound and ran towards it himself. Kisame was the last Akatsuki to arrive at the gates of the Uchiha compound; the Akatsuki remained totally confused for a full minute before they let Pein guide the way through the busy compound and to the main house in the centre of the compound. The Akatsuki gained looks as they walked towards the main house. Pein knocked on the door and a Mikoto called from around the side of the house; Pein walked around the side of the house while everyone followed.
"Excuse me, I'm looking for Itachi," Pein said, as Mikoto turned towards him and stared at her.
"He's just in the kitchen," Mikoto answered, stopping what she was doing and looked at Pein.
"Hello Pein," Mikoto greeted, observing how grown up he was.
"Hello Mikoto," Pein greeted, staring at the girl he had known so long ago.
Let's go inside," Kakuzu whispered to the rest of the Akatsuki.
The rest of the Akatsuki stepped inside and went about finding the kitchen, while Mikoto and Pein stood staring at each other. Itachi looked up as he heard someone coming down the hallway and was surprised to see the Akatsuki walking into the kitchen.
"What are you doing here?" Itachi asked, wiping the bench clean and throwing the sponge in the sink.
"Came to find you, Pein was with us but he is now talking to your…mum," Kisame answered.
"Oh, sorry I didn't come and find you guys. With the Uchiha clan suddenly being alive again and Sakura in the hospital I was a bit busy," Itachi apologised.
"It's fine," Sasori replied.
"Itachi, have you seen mum?" Sasuke asked, walking in the room and seeing the Akatsuki before he spotted his mum across the bench from the Akatsuki.
"She is still outside, take this with you," Itachi told Sasuke, handing him a full glass of water that he had put in the fridge not too long ago.
Sasuke nodded and walked towards the back door.
