*Itachi's pov*

Kisame and I were walking around in silence. It was a long day of training. Suddenly someone appeared in front of us. I realized that someone was Naruko after her transformation disappeared. She held her eyes and screamed in pure pain.

"What wrong with her?" Kisame asks covering his ears.

"Beats me. But we need to shut her up before she draws people our way." I say annoyed. Then she stops screaming and tears/blood stream down her face. "Naruko, what happened?" I ask narrowing my eyes slightly. She looks at me and I'm shocked.

"Hey Itachi aren't those the same eyes you have?" Kisame asks narrowing his eyes.

"I awakened the Oracle's Power a few days ago. I have access to any clan traits, while trying to help two people i became frustrated because I couldn't actually help. I was informed my eyes had changed... I didn't know at first, then the pain kicked in as I found you." She says as calmly as possible though you could tell she was in pain.

"Your eyes are fully matured already. Come here." I say seriously, she nods and walks closer to me. I grip her chin and inspect her eyes carefully. "Don't use these eyes too much or you'll over use chakra, and could go blind." I inform her.

"Teach me to use them, please?" She asks pleadingly.

"Fine. But not today." I say seriously. I begin to cough lightly and her eyes widen.

"I-Itachi... you're sick?" She looks away sadly. "Selena is too... I saw her a few days ago. She could barely eat, and her nose started to bleed for no reason.. it's a terminal illness that can't be cured, isn't it?" She asks glaring. I didn't know what to say to her.

"Yes." I reply calmly. She sighs and nods.

"It's getting dark. Let's find a hotel to stay in." Kisame sighs. We nod and we all begin to walk silently. "By the way, Naruko. I heard you had a small portion of the Nine Tails, but it was extracted by Tobi."

"So that's what his name is, huh?" She asks annoyed. "Yeah, I nearly died. If it wasn't for what little chakra I had left I would have. I made it to Orochimaru's hide out. If it wasn't for him, Karin and Sasuke I'd have died." She says calmly.

"Orochimaru?" I ask her annoyed.

"Tch, I couldn't go back to Konoha and I couldn't get back to Udyan and Selena my seal on them disappeared, I thought they died. Orochimaru helped me unlock the Oracle though." She shrugs. I narrow my eyes at her.

"He didn't experiment on you?" I ask.

"No. He can't." She replies simply. I nod. We get to a hotel and get two rooms.

*Naruko's pov*

-time skip to training the next day-

"Ah! This is so much harder! My eyes aren't adjusting!" I yelled trying to dodge Itachi's attacks. Obviously I was failing dodging so I kept getting hit pretty hard.

"What? Did you think you could master the Sharingan immediately? It takes hard work." Itachi states.

"No, I just thought it'd be easier." I sigh. I quickly jump away from Itachi as he's about to hit me with a Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Jutsu.

"You're getting better." He states as I dodged and landed perfectly.

"My eyes are adjusting. I can keep up now." I say to myself smirking. I watch as Itachi makes quick hand signs for a Water jutsu. I finally realized we were on the water and copied his hand movements perfectly.

"Tiger → Ox → Monkey → Rabbit → Ram → Boar → Ox → Horse → Monkey → Tiger → Dog → Tiger → Snake → Tiger → Ox → Monkey → Rabbit → Bird." We say simultaneously. "Water Release: Giant Vortex Jutsu." His out matched mine and I was swept away.
