Chief Park just finished putting on her accessories when Onyx burst into the locker room.
    " He's here , Chief !" he half whispered. 
    " Onyx , do I look alright ?" she asked , motioning at her appearance.
Onyx nodded hastily . " Yeah , people wouldn't even believe that you're a grim reaper if you told them . They'd say that you're an angel. Now , don't keep your Romeo waiting for long !"

Grumbling , Chief Park stepped out of The Brewery , and there she saw Itachi , in all of his glory.
He donned a solid black tuxedo , along with a violet necktie. He didn't overdress by any means , but he looked so refined and dapper to her.

    " Itachi-san ."

    " Mirai-san."

He held out his hand , which Chief Park took gingerly. Luckily , she had worn handgloves , similar to Cinderella's. 

    " I knew this dress would look good on you. Well , anything would look lovely on a beautiful person ," he spoke. 
Chief Park lowered her head to hide her red tinted cheeks, but Itachi could see it very clearly. 

    " We should get going ," he whispered into her ear , making her almost jump.
Even in her heels , Chief Park was still much shorter than Itachi , who had a towering height. 

   " Yeah , we should, " she replied.
During the car ride , Chief Park was tongue tied , and unable to strike up a conversation. She tried very hard to resist the urge to rip of her gloves and grab his hand , and delve into his past life. She heard the bits from Onyx , but she was not satisfied with that.
She had to confirm it for sure , that she was (Name) Hyuga in her past life. 

   " Ah , we're here ," Itachi said , pulling over the car into the Uchiha clan compound. The front gates had a red and white fan symbol engraved on it , marking entrance of Uchiha territory. 
The compound was filled by numerous types of trees , such as cherry blossoms , frangipani , tsubaki , and oak . The Uchiha clan compound had a traditional design , and this could be seen from the shoji doors and red torii gates.

    " I think I'd look rather out of place here ," Chief Park chuckled awkwardly. 
Itachi could tell exactly why she felt so , and gave her a reassuring smile.
    " Around a hundred years ago , people would show up wearing yukatas and kimonos. But everything is modernised now , and people prefer dresses and coats ."

Itachi finally stopped the car near a large hall in the heart of the compound. Countless luxurious cars filled the area , from all famous names.

Upon entering the hall , Chief Park could see numerous groups of people , all that intrigued her .
Some had red fang shaped marks on their faces , some boasted the same pineapple-like hairstyle , some had bright blonde hair and crystal blue eyes , some wore glasses and extremely conservated clothes , some were blonde and had their hair in high ponytails , and some were rather on the rounder side and could not stop eating.

But the group of people that intrigued her the most were the ones with lavender eyes. 

   " Aniki , you're here !" a voice said , and Itachi turned around to see Sasuke , along with a girl in tow. " And you came with Mirai-san ! I'm gonna tell mother !" he teased.

    " Tell me what ?" 

Mikoto Uchiha entered the conversation , a finely plucked eyebrow raised.
     " Mother , Aniki's brought a girl with him. I thought he didn't have the guts to ask out a girl !" Sasuke taunted playfully.
Itachi growled , smacking the back of his younger brother's head , making the latter howl in pain.
   " Wow , I'm so proud of you my son," she beamed , making Itachi almost facepalm. She noticed Chief Park , who was silently hiding behind Itachi. " Let me look at you , child ," she beckoned , taking hold of her covered arm.
Chief Park shivered under Mikoto's scrutinising gaze , feeling as if a thousand of lasers were directed onto her at once.
