To Kibachow: thanks for the review. It made me realize that you were right, though I take it on account that Itachi has this 'aura' on him that would just make someone drawn to him…and Hinata was a little 'brain muddled' to think about everything too much coz she's just been drawn out of a dream world. But thank you very much! I really love how your comments can make me realize the things I need to consider….like the character's feelings, mental state, etc. I love you! I love you! Oh…I used a phrase from your review…

Chapter Eight
Hinata found herself being put into the wet ground.
Looking at the Akatsuki, she saw him took a glimpse at something in the distance, his expression contemplating. Slowly, Hinata's hand crawled behind her, hiding it from view. His cloak was still around her so it was easy to hide her hand without him seeing. She was cold and shuddering…
But she was a kunoichi. She knew she could withstand the rain or any harsh weather…It's just that her chakra was still messed up. She can't withstand that.
Itachi kneeled, his expression giving off a warning. "There's a town nearby and I have decided to let you stop there as a traveler. No tricks."
"H-hai." Hinata pretended to listen, the thick rain helping her to hide her face from his scrutinizing view. She has played her obedient card and she knew that the Uchiha believes her. He was even willing to carry her just to see for her safety.
But she knew that it was all because they wanted to spoon her eyes out and she needs to be on good shape for that.
Hinata faked a sneeze.
Itachi bent forward.
Hinata knew it was now or never.
Mustering her courage and straining the last of her chakra until it hurts her muscles, Hinata struck the older man with her palm—glowing with Hyuga chakra. His eyes suddenly focused and he shifted, managing to avoid a blow on the face.
But she manages to strike his arm.
"Two…Four…Eight…Sixteen…Thirty two." She blocked his chakra points with blinding speed. Hinata was about to strike another nerve when she felt a strong grip on her neck. Itachi's other hand was locked around it and he tightened the grip, making her choke.
She saw his other arm hung limp on his side, the one with the blocked nerve points.
"Obedient heiress?" He said, voice calm yet there was an edge into it. "Well played."
Hinata winced and her vision was becoming cloudy , the thick rain and fog did not help either. Trying to pry the strong hand from her neck, she began to kick and claw…anything just to lessen the grip that was starting to block her windpipes.
But her efforts where futile for he was stronger than her by all means.
Hinata screamed.
