Floating blossom | ItaNaru

Haven't you guys learned?

Naruto's POV: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I got back in my room with my strawberries, I was very upset, so I went to my laptop to look for any quick missions I could do tonight to let out some anger. I saw that I was wanted for 100,000,000yen from Orochimaru, I didn't care, he was weak, so if he ever tried anything he die. I came across a mission that said " WANTED: AKUMA ONNA.. REWARD 100,000 YEN". This "demon woman" (akuma onna = demon woman) was none other than the wretched villager woman who beat me that day I was blamed for Sasuke's wrong doings.

'Perfect' I thought. She was in a village close by, (30min walk) so I got dressed in my black Kimono with cherry blossoms that turned red in the night. This Kimono was for battle, and had many compartments for my weapons. I tied my hair with two black chopsticks, and grabbed my weapons. My pink silencer was the easiest to grab since I used it the most.

I went downstairs and Itachi was still downstairs doing work. I felt like I should at least say one thing to him today so I quietly walked into his office and said "Don't forget to rest" as quietly as I could and walked back out. He looked up and nodded before noticing my outfit and saying "where are you off to at this time of night?" I turned to him with a monotonous look on my face and said "Just letting off some steam" I wrote down my phone number on small piece of paper and put it on his desk in case he wanted to call, then walked away not waiting for a response.

Time skip - arriving at the place of her mission ~~~~~~

'I'm glad to finally end this disgusting woman's life. She hurt me badly that day, and as a result she'll die at the age of 41. I snuck into her house and quietly walked to find her. I wasn't scared, I was a changed person and was now stronger than anyone would ever be, so I'm going to take my time to kill this wretched woman. I heard her voice, most likely talking on the phone. She said "The girl I beat that day has supposedly become an extremely strong assassin. She has a 10,000,000 yen bounty on her head and I'm ready to claim that money. I know I'm stronger than that brat, I'll have the money by next week, hahaha!"

I walked in her room quietly and waited for her to notice my presence. She hung up the phone and turned around. "W-what are you doing here!? Get out of my house!" The lady said. "Oh? I thought you wanted to claim my bounty.. now's your chance." I said staring at her. She didn't say anything so I started walking towards her ready to fight, I didn't want this to end quickly by using my gun. The woman stood up quickly and charged at me. I easily dodged and swung back, hitting her in the face easily. The woman cried out in pain, and tried to kick me, I flipped out of the way and she fell. I took this moment to hold her down and prepare to shoot her.

"You ruined me that day. You knew it was Sasuke who killed your beloved danzo, yet you beat me instead. I don't care if he was your precious Uchiha or not, I didn't deserve that trauma. Now, you'll die wondering if it was ever worth it. Goodbye Akuma Onna." After saying that I shot her in the head with my pink silenced gun and blood got on my Kimono, as usual.

I walked out and made my way back home feeling better after letting go some steam. I was glad to have gotten 100,000 yen for free basically.

Time skip - back home ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I walked in and Itachi was on his way upstairs. He turned when he heard the door open and saw me enter with a blood stained Kimono with my pink gun in hand. He turned back around, but I could've sworn I'd seen him smile. I must've been seeing things. I headed upstairs to clean off this blood and head to bed.

I contemplated knocking on Itachi's door to say goodnight, and after a couple of minutes of contemplation, I raised my hand and quickly dropped it, nervousness taking over. He didn't seem to want anything to do with me, but I didn't want to live here with no socialization. It seemed as though he knew I was at the door, and he opened it looking down at me. I jumped slightly but tried to keep my monotonous face on.

"Do you need something Naruto-San?" He said looking at me with an unreadable expression.

I shook my head as no, "I.. just wanted to say goodnight" I said quietly, I again wasn't sure if he had heard me.

He said nothing and just kept staring with that unreadable expression. His look began reminding me of the villagers looking down on me so I quickly turned away not wanting to reawaken those memories.

"Goodnight Naruto" I heard him say. I turned around and nodded, heading back to my room for bed.
