Stranger Games (Itachi Uchiha x Reader)

Cops and Robbers

~*~*~*~*~(Name)~*~*~*~*~

"I'm sorry missy but I run a business here. I can't just hand out food to stray dogs. Now get outta here so I can pay attention to people that matter." Your eyes narrow at the man. It had been almost two days you went without food. The people where you were now aren't as kind as the people in the hidden leaf that's for sure. You've grown bitter in your solitude and you were going to start taking it out on others.

The hood of the cloak you'd stolen on the way there covered your eyes. Your evil grin however, could be seen clear as day. The man was standing there impatiently waiting for you to leave, but you didn't budge, just smiled.

"Wipe that look off your face and get lost!" He put a hand on you...big mistake. He instantly noticed the hair that was sticking out of your cloak turned white. By the time he looked up to see your face, your clear blue snake eyes were made visible.

"I could just paralyze you and take what I want but, well that just wouldn't be as fun as threatening you. So you've got thirty seconds to get me something to eat or else, I show the tail."

"The tail!? Woman you must be crazy, I'm calln the cops. This little magic trick you've got going on with your eyes and your hair don't scare me." You eyes and hair went back to normal and the the cloak covered your face once again. A smirk taking place of your grin. The man left you standing outside, you hear him on the phone, and not long after, they showed up. You were surrounded, the man that started it all came back out to speak to the police.

"Good you're here, now take this crazy lady away from my store. She can't buy anything, and now she won't leave. Stupid bitch thinks she can scare me with some type of magic trick too. A TAIL? ha!" Two of the policemen pulled on your arms from behind. You turned to them, they were stunned by your eyes. Both fell to the floor, they weren't dead but they were useless. Their comrades called out their names but no answer. They were too busy trying to process your eyes.

The police were mad now, and three of them charged at you. It was a shame you didn't have your weapons anymore but you gained something else. You held out your hand and bent all your fingers, claws took place of your finger nails. It was the first time you saw them, but you weren't surprised. Over the years your powers increased. First your hair, then eyes, then body, and now this. You only wondered your limit of power. Why every time you gained more power the mark on your shoulder would burn.

Blood splattered everywhere as you dug your claws into one of the officers. The other two quickly joining him in a crimson death. The four remaining officers were shaking. You laugh at their pitiful state.

"Well, aren't you gonna arrest me? I'd just love to see you try." They snapped out of their trance and began to attack but came to a hault as your legs disappeared. You took off your hood to let them see your face in the dim light.

"How sad." You turned to the man that started this mess.

"You still think this is a magic trick?" The man just stood their in shock.

"Well enjoy the magic show." Slithering to the other police officers, you sank your claws into their flesh. Tearing them to shreds, laughing as you did it. Because you were alone there was no one to be disappointed by your actions. You didn't have to hold back for the sake of anyone else, this was just you and you alone trying to survive. Praying on the weak. You slither back to the store owner and look him in the eye.

"Hope you enjoyed." He was shaking and stuttering.

"I-I'll get you s-some food, w-whatever you want, on the h-house."

"No, there's no need for that." A single claw glided across the man's neck, ripping through skin, gushing out blood. You let go of the man only to watch his limp body hit the ground along with the nine officers.

"I can get it myself."

Itachi's curiosity grew as he turned the page to find more writing. Though it was simple things about her journey and the places she's been, some seeming like pleasant memories and others filled with hunger or loneliness. He couldn't stop reading into the mystery that is (Name). There were certain things that stood out to him. Example: Constant claims of sighting a man with long dark hair.

~*~Quotes~*~

"While there, I noticed a man with silky black hair that seemed pretty long. I wasn't able to make out his face from a distance but something about him made me feel uneasy... Like he was just watching me." (Page 3)

"I could've sworn I saw that strange guy with the long hair again." (Page 8)

"Whenever I see him he's in the shadow of something, so I can never see him clearly...but I know it's the same person." (Page 15)

"Is he like a spirit?" (Page 27)

"Maybe it's not a bad thing...kinda makes me feel less alone." (Page 32)

"I saw him again today, I just smiled." (Page 36)

Itachi got a lot of information out the journal. Like (Name's) favorite color and favorite food. That she enjoys rain and her favorite flowers are (f/f). Her handwriting is a bit slanted. She thinks her best feature is her hair even though it changes during her transformation. She loves sunsets and rises. She's good at swimming, she's good at singing but can't do it in fornt of people. And more importantly that she can control the parts of her transformation. In about two hours he went through (Name's) life from the time she was six to the night when they first met.

~*~page 125~*~

It's the first time I've been called beautiful. I probably shouldn't get my hopes to high up but, in my heart I feel like this could be the place, the one I can call home. The hidden leaf village. I've met so many kind people today. And it's all because I started up a stupid game with a complete stranger! I must have been literally out of my mind to do something like that. I mean the guy was hot, but still...oh well, no harm done.

Though while kissing the stranger, I felt something weird in my chest, I've never felt it before. I could've easily paralyzed him again to stop the kiss, but it felt right, so I let it happen. He was nice enough to give me money for food and a place to stay. Now that I think about it, it was almost like prostitution... We only kissed but for him to give me money afterwards? I don't know but, in two days I'll see him again. I can't wait, and I'll admit to being an idiot for that reason.

To be continued...
