Musical Hands(Kakashi x Fem Naruto)

fifteen

Danzo Shimura gazed down at the blonde cradled in his arm. He had heard her screams from the other side of the district thanks to his trained ears and went running.

He had no idea why her voice had him running to her rescue, but was glad he did. This poor girl was so close to being taken unwillfully. "You are safe now, My dear." He saw a tear escape her eye and gently wiped the offending mark away from her beautiful young face. Hearing the man groan and threw a kunai at the man. Getting the offender right in the arm and ignored his screams as the kunai ripped right through his arms and pinned him to the wall. Danzo faced the shocked and surprised blonde and moved her ruffled hair out of her face. "Are you okay?"

Naruto gulped and soon found her body relaxing as she was no longer in Danzo's arms, but in Itachi's. Naruto looked to her brother-figure and was greeted with blue eyes and white hair. he was in disguise and leaned against him. Taking in his scent as a means of comfort. She had barely survived the night's encounter.

Itachi had seen Naruto in Danzo's arm and without thought, henged and taken her from his arms. Yet he had the courtesy to bow to the Elder.

"Danzo-sama, I must thank you for finding and saving my beloved younger sister." Holding Naruto tighter as his eyes moved to the man that had attacked the blonde in his eyes.

Itachi felt rage burn within him for the first time in years and went to take a step forward towards the target when Danzo stood before him. Itachi paused and reigned in his anger and faced the elder. "Don't think of me as rude, Danzo-sama, but that man will be prosecuted by our family and our family alone for this treachery."

Danzo placed his cane before the victim's relative, from what he has observed, and shook his head.

"Although the crime commit is quite horrid against your family, young man, but I am the one who has found the offender committing the crime of attempted rape and assault against your younger sister. Since I have arrived at the scene first and have witnessed the crime, I shall hand out punishment to this disagreeable man and I assure you and..." he gazed to the blonde that had stopped shivering in her brother's arms.

"And your beloved sister that this man will be punished accordingly. If I am not too rude, may I ask for the name of your family, young man?"

Itachi knew what Danzo was aiming for. He wanted their 'family' name and more specifically, Naruto's name. "I am the eldest child of the House of Yuki, Raiden. This is the youngest of the Yuki House, Narumi." Once Itachi gave his alias and saw Danzo nod, he took that as his cue to leave and leapt onto the rooftops and left the scene.

Naruto felt at ease with the night's winds and glanced up to Itachi as his henge wore off. "Itachi...what's going to happen to that man with Danzo?"

Itachi looked to Naruto briefly before gazing back to his path as he entered the forest. "You shouldn't worry about him or Danzo, Naruto. You should worry about yourself and your recent plight."

Naruto wrapped her arms around Itachi's neck and snuggled in. "I'm okay, Itachi. Scared? Yes, but I'm not broken and never will be. Just scared."

"And with me?" Itachi knew it was bad timing to ask, but he was desperate for her answer.

"I could never hate you for what you have done, Itachi. I know you better than you think. Pissed? Yes. Betrayed? Slightly, but what you did...and if we were in each other's positions, I would've done the same. For the sake of our village, I would live a life of solitude, guilt and hate. If I wasn't so tired, I would kick your ass right now and if Jiji was still alive, I would do the exact same. Just wait till I get my hands on Jiraiya thought."

Itachi leapt from tree branch to tree branch as he asked.

"How can you be so brave after an assault like that, Naruto? Is it the Kyūbi?" changing the subject since he didn't want to know what Naruto would do to him or Jiraiya once she was feeling up to it.

Her punishments were quite brutal.

Naruto snorted. "Me brave? Not really, not right now. All I want to do is cry, scream and rage while Kyūbi wants to tear that bastard limb from limb and other cringe-worthy tortures. I am currently weak, Itachi and as each day passes, I strive to overcome the shadow from yesterday. It's slow, but I feel myself getting better, Itachi. Just give me time. If I were my old self, that oath would've died the moment he was within my radar..."

Itachi glazed to Naruto as she was slowly nodding off in his arms and landed gracefully in the backyard of the Yuki residence.

He didn't enter normally, but through Naruto's window. He sensed that Jiraiya and Tsunade were home, but in their rooms. Itachi quickly tended to her head wound before he tucked Naruto under her covers and slid in beside her after he closed the window. stroking her hair and whispered. "I promise to help you get stronger, Naruto"

Naruto gazed tiredly at Itachi with a small smile. "Should place me in a genjutsu then." She yawned and yelped a little when Itachi flicked her forehead.

"Foolish little kitsune. That would only ruin your mind. Whatever you are doing now, is suited for you and you alone. You know the difference between a bad touch and a good touch. Konoha has perverts, yes, but most of them know decency while others don't have boundaries. About 2-5% of those perverts are like that retched man. A small population, but they are there no less. You have done well for yourself, Naruto. Don't stop whatever you are doing."

Naruto snorted and tucked herself under Itachi's chin. "I haven't done anything special." Sighing in ease as Itachi's arms wrapped around her comfortably. "If Sasuke saw this, he would kill you. better yet, I should kill you for showing him that I'm a female."

"I forgot." Itachi muttered, yet Naruto stifle exhale told him otherwise. "He wasn't mad, if you were wondering. Just shocked."

"I'll deal with Sasuke later." Naruto grew tired by the second and asked Itachi. "Wake me up around nine. I have to be somewhere after 10."

"Aren't we going to train?" Itachi questioned. "I do have limited time with you."

"Then kill Kisame and sell his sword for extra bucks." Naruto muttered. Not in the mood to talk any more as she quickly drifted off into dream land.

Itachi just sighed at Naruto's logic. "Sweet dreams, Naruto."
