Disney Series: Pocahontas (Itachi Uchiha One Shot)

Pocahontas

The Akatsuki had been given a mission, and they had only recently just arrived at the village. Normally it might have just involved a partnership when dealing with the mission, but this was a little bigger than what they were usually hired for. Not only that, but it would take a lot more work if there was only two of them, and with that amount of work they would need to be careful with it. They had been asked to do something about the village, as it had been causing so much chaos to everything around it, and were continuing to extend their boundaries with no stop in sight. It meant they would need to take down the entire village. Though it wasn't huge, it was still a village, with a large portion of the people being ninjas. The whole point of the mission was to avoid any more chaos occurring in the region, however, and as such they couldn't just charge in. They'd heard plenty of stories about the village, but they'd need true, certain information if they were to carry this out.

Though all of the Akatsuki had been uncertain as to how much of the rumours and stories they'd heard were true, the closer they got to the area and the more they saw that it wasn't all lies. They passed empty burning husks of villages, groups of people in makeshift camps on the side of the path as they headed away from the village to find somewhere more peaceful to live, fearing for their lives. Every now and again they'd even passed by battlefields that were still spattered with blood. Why exactly the village was doing all of this, no one seemed to know. But at this point, most people didn't even care. They were destroying the nearby forest, wiping out villages and massacring any people that came their way, and at an alarming rate. Whatever their reasons may have been, they needed to be stopped, and it was why the Akatsuki were there.

For a village the size of this one, there weren't as many people as they had expected as they came into the outskirts, mostly women going about their daily activities, but with the situation that wasn't exactly surprising considering they killed who they deemed unnecessary. Guards were dotted around the place, but for such a heavily fortified village, there didn't seem to be too many to guard it—though as they continued walking through, they heard numerous voices from the centre of the village, and gathered that that was were most of the guards had gone. All of the ninja and samurai that acted for the village were part of the same clan—the Senso clan. Therefore a meeting was important for numerous reasons. For the moment, however, and the Akatsuki stayed away, as they were easier to pick out with the lack of people, not to mention their numbers and how they were all wearing ninja headbands, and they didn't exactly want to draw too much attention to themselves. The guards left to look over the village eyed them warily though let them be, the women seeming to be a little friendlier, though they, too, made no move to approach them. After all, even with all the violence and destruction the village carried out, they still needed to trade with other places for resources. Allowing people to come in created an income, though it wasn't something the villagers enjoyed having to do, and it wasn't something traders wanted to be involved in either. But if the Akatsuki were going to complete their mission, they were going to have to be careful how they went about it. The village might not have as many ninja as, say, a ninja village, but they were much more willing to attack in the right situation.

That was ever obvious as the clan huddled in the square outside of the leader's building, sorting out everything that had been looted and talking over future plans after having destroyed another village. For the meantime most talked amongst themselves, telling stories of the recent battles and showing any bounty they had received in return. Their leader, Rida, stood behind them all, closest to the main building—his house—and watched over the group, turning to the ninja next to him as he questioned how things had gone, replying with a malicious smirk,

"They went extremely well. We could have had a better battle, of course, but that's their problem, not ours. It's not my fault they're all weak. Still—where is my daughter? Where is Shizuka?"
