Miyuki's POV

I look down from my apartment... Taking in the scenery down there...

Itachi... Why does he have to continue on doing all this...

Flashback~~~

I open my eyes to see myself in a void dark place.

"Itachi... It's been quite some time since I last see you..." I said.

His piercing red eyes can be seen. He approach me and stood in front of me.

"It has" He said.

"Is it a coincidence or was it on purpose that we met again?" I ask.

"This time is a coincidence" He replied.

"I see..." I said.

It was silent for awhile.

"How long are you gonna be like this?" I ask.

Itachi just look at me.

"Trying to cover up every single thing. Protecting the village... Harming yourself... Sacrificing yourself..." I added.

"...As long as I have to take..." He replied.

"...Can't I... Help you?" I ask.

"How?" He said.

"Stop doing this... Convince Hokage-sama to bring you back... tell the truth to Sasuke...I can help convince the Hokage!" I said.

"No. I can't do that..." He said.

I sigh.

"Uchihas are really, really stubborn aren't they?" I said, looking down sadly.

He just quietly observe me.

"If you're wondering... Sasuke's doing well... other than his obsession to kill his own brother, he's fine. He'll be going through the Chunin exam finals... against Ichibi's Jinchuriki" I said.

He still kept quiet.

I took a deep breath in and exhale...

"In about 2 weeks or so, you'll be ask to come to Konoha to retrieve Naruto... the nine tail jinchuriki... Can I ask you to abandon the mission?" I said.

"Why?" He ask.

"Because... you'll be meeting with Sasuke... and it's during the time where he's... Not in a good condition" I said.

"Not in a good condition?" He ask.

"Many things will happen... Many lost will happen... all on that faithful day. I don't want to lose Sasuke too honestly... He's marked by Orochimaru... He will seek for more power, Itachi. You should know Sasuke very well...It will trigger when you meet with him in Konoha" I explain.

"I can't promise you" He said.

I sigh...

"Can't you try to do something?" I ask.

"If I did anything different, they'll be suspicious" Itachi said, refering to the Akatsuki members.

"You're right..." I sigh once again.

"Thank you... for telling me this" He said.

I nod.

"No problem" I said.

I walk towards him.

"Itachi... if you need any help... please come to me... I want to help you... really. So please... stop doing everything yourself" I said.
