A Strong Heart Naruto Fan Fic

The Other Side.

Itachi's P.O.V

"Did you find her yet?",I question Toby and Konan. They had come back empty handed, glum looks on their faces. "She's gone without a trace", Konan quietly whispers whining at my yell.

"Well Find A Trace!", I shout and she makes herself small by tensing her shoulders and bending her knees slightly. I scowl to myself, what will Pein think; he's madly in love with her.

About a week ago Pein had captured Suzka because of her power, but soon fell madly in love with her. She didn't say much, but when she got angry she would take it out on someone; hot headed I would call it. But she is attractive, I'll give her that; maybe too attractive. Anyways Pein wants her more then ever, ever since some ninja came and stole her. He was fully dressed in black only his silver blue eyes could be seen, he was young almost as young as Suzka. It just surprises me how he got past Kisame and hidan without dying. Suzka was sleeping at the time so the ninja just swooped her up and jumped out the window. It seemed like he needed her, for something really important if he is coming to our base.

I scowl again, I should've been guarding her room when the kid came in, but I was with Pein talking in his room.
I walk to Peins room knocking on the door. He opens it and looks at me with a snarl. "Did they find her?", he growls desperately.

"No they couldn't find a trace", I answer and he growls, "Itachi those idiots can't do anything, I need you to find her." I look at him confused, he never sends me out for anything; I just stay at the base. "Yes sir", I grumble before he closes the door in my face. Time to suit up, and leave tonight.

Midnight~

I leave quickly, Konan said they searched for miles around the base in all directions; why the hell would they do that. Like what if she was in the nearest village? I stop.

Actually that's not a bad idea. Maybe she did make it to the village hidden in the leaves, with that ninja.

I race on towards the village.

The stars drew out, I quickly run atop the roofs. It's been along time since I've been in this village, mostly because my brother hates my guts, but I wouldn't blame him. After seeing no one in sight I begin walking on the streets. I just happen to pass the hospital and the corner of my eyes catches something. I turn around looking through the window.

It's her! Except, bruised, tattered, and unconscious. Sasuke sat beside her on a chair asleep. I would have to sneak in there without waking my brother, he was always a light sleeper though.

Or maybe should I break through this window grab her and run; if Sasuke tries to stop my I will send a demon dog his way. I agree with myself suddenly lunging into the window and smashing through it. Sasuke snaps awake and I cast a demon dog towards him before taking Suzka from her bed and holding her gently due to the injuries. She unconsciously moves and grabs onto my arm, her face right to my beating heart. I quickly jump out through the window, before jumping onto a roof top and running away. If Pein would have sent me out to find her, I would have a week ago.

But then again she leave me to wonder how she got so injured.

"Itachi!!", I hear Sasuke's thundering voice from a distance. I quickly sprint faster looking back, eventually loosing  him in the midst of the forest.

I slow down. Looking down my eyes widen. She looked back, her blue eyes barely open, tears had fallen from the corners of her eyes. "Who are you?", she whispers, before attempting to blink the tears away. My heart stops, she doesn't remember us; imagine what Pein is going to think. "Sasuke?",she asks another tear rolling down her cheek. I shake my head,

"No." She closes her eyes and remains still for the rest of the way home.

Suzka's P.O.V

I open my eyes and I am laying in a dark coloured bed. My thoughts bottled up, one question escaping, where am I?

The door opens and a orange haired man comes in, many studs on his face. His eyes look like a never ending maze.

"Finally awake my princess?", he says standing beside the bed.

I blush a little at 'princess'. "Yes, but why am I here and who are you?"

"I've expected you to say that. Anyways my name is Pein soma, and you are my lover.", he adds and I feel a lump form in my throat. I am finally able to croak out,"L-lover?"

What luck, I wake up to a handsome man that now claims to be my lover.

"Yes, before you had lost your memory, we had a past together", he speaks so gently.

"What happened to me, why did I loose my memory?", I question and he sighs.

"That I cannot tell you", he says. I furrow my eye brows before sighing, my stomach suddenly growls loudly.

He lightly chuckles before his hand swiftly grabs my jaw. "Hungry?", I feel his hot breath on my now red face.

"Y-yes."

He chuckles again whispering into my lips,"Such innocents."

He presses his lips to mine, but I am to shocked to kiss back. He pulls away looking at me a little taken back. "Do you not like it?", he scowls.

"I-I... L-like it...", I whisper shyly, besides he is my past, lover.

"Then kiss me", he whispers forcefully. I bite my lip staring at his, I close my eyes before meshing my lips with his rough lips.

I lay on the couch as Konan paints my toenails. Konan tells me all about the past and how I used to have anger issues; it kinda does sound like me. The most funniest story Konan told me was Tobi farted at a serious meeting and I called him a dog and made him sit outside.

"Was Pein seriously my lover in the past?", I question.

"Yeah, he's head over heels for you", she lightly grumbles.

She finishes painting my nails and I thank her before going to bed, kinda. I walk into our room sitting down at the desk and pushing all of Peins papers to the side. I find a piece of scrap paper and a nice fine tipped pen. I draw a heart and around it a plum to represent Sasuke as nasty on the outside but sweet on the inside. I draw a peach to represent Sakura, she's a little prickly on the outside but sweet on the inside. I draw a pomegranate to represent Naruto, I always think I got him figured out then he surprises me with something new. I finally sketch a banana ( :D ), Kakashi the cold and strong on the inside but kind and frail on the inside. Pein comes in standing behind me.

"What are you drawing?"

"Fruit..."

"Come to bed when your ready.", he adds before taking off his kimono. I catch a glimpse of his muscular body and he catches me staring. He smiles flexing before laying in bed. He pats the mattress and I stand up turning off the lamp before taking off my over layer. I suddenly think of Kakashi, me and him have the same suit. I feel a tear filling my eye, I blink them away before laying down beside him gently; my injuries still hurt. His arm attempts to wrap around me but I left out a squeal when he touches a bruise on my hip. He jerks his hand away,"Sorry" he apologises. I bite my lip and he leans in for a kiss. I move in towards the kiss and our lips gently touch. I take hold of his hand squeezing it so I don't start crying. Nothing felt right, I can only think of Kakashi. I want to hold Kakashi's hand in safety, lay on his chest, lay my head in the curve of his neck and listen to his,

heart beat.
