A few days later

Alexis's POV

I groan annoyed. "There's nothing to do and I'm bored. Why does everyone else get to train but I have to stay back and watch you carry stuff back and forth?" I ask Tazuna.

He just grunts and tosses me a beam. I catch it with one hand. I set it down beside me. "Just cause I'm a girl doesn't mean I'm not strong."

Tazuna points to where the beam should go. "If your that bored why don't you help?"

I sigh. "Can't argue." I set the bean where its supposed to go and I help them for a bit.

We walk back to the house for dinner and I sit outside on the docks, slightly annoyed.

Logan sits next to me. "Here." Logan hands me a bread roll. "Thought you might be hungry."

"Thanks." I look at the sky and Logan looks at me confused.

"Is something wrong?" Logan asks me.

"No. Nothings wrong."

"You aren't eating and you were working all day. When the dog doesn't eat then something's up." Logan says to me.

I continue starring at the sky. "Akatsuki. My Elder Brother is in the Akatsuki and always risking his life. I wish he was safe in the Leaf Village. But I have to remember what he did was right."

Logan nods. "Is that why your always coming here to the docks every night?"

I shrug. "I feel closer to him when I'm out sitting and watching the stars. We used to do that all the time. I just miss him. Nii-San didn't deserve this."

"No one deserves the life he and you go through. Your both bound by blood and are of the same womb. You share each others pain and sorrow. You both have a bond deeper than normal simblings. Your twins. That's what it means to be twins." Logan says to me.

I sigh. "Yeah but he has the Mangekyo as well and no way to heal his eyes. I want to be able to sit and talk with him again. And not before we pass to the next world. That won't happen though. If it were to happen I'd be accused as a traitor from Danzo and everyone under him would all agree. Nii-San would get into serious trouble with the Akatsuki and could get killed if not careful."

Logan nods. "Your smart. You'll figure something out."

My eyes sadden slightly. "I've been through every scenario, every possibility. The only one I have crossed out that I would never do, is the leave the village to go Rouge. I'd never do that no matter what and Nii-San knows why. I love the village with my life and I'd die protecting it. Every scenario and possibility have all come out the same. It spells death for me and Nii-San."

Logan sighs and gets up. "At least eat. You'll figure something out. You always do. No one thought you would be able to learn medical Nin-Jutsu yet you did. You learned sealing arts when that's an Uzumaki specialty. You have the brains of Shikaku Nara. Your eyes are the most special, they reflect your soul. Your eyes are strong, that means your soul is strong, your eyes show your emotions when your face or body language doesn't."

I smile at him. "Arigato."

Logan places a hand on my head. "Sure kid." He says and leaves.

I start eating my bread roll.

I sigh as I think about what to write to Itachi.

I just want to sit and talk. Its never gonna happen though. Nii-San.

I sigh and finish. I watch the stars a bit longer as I feel like Itachi's next to me as I sit.

The morning rolls around and I yawn slightly and stand up.
