I DO NOT OWN NARUTO

What? What the hell is going on? Why is this murderer here? Has the Akatsuki finally come to take me? Huh, well, it doesn't matter now.

"Uzumaki Naruto, I Uchiha Itachi, ask of you to join Akatsuki on behalf of Pain-Sama," Itachi said in his voice devoid of emotion.

...are you kidding me?

"Um, hello? I thought your guy's goal was to take all the bijuu from the jinchuriki? Why take me to join?" I said.

"Uzumaki-san, if you go, Pain-sama will explain everything." He said in that same voice.

Hmm, well if I can tell the secrets of the Akatsuki then maybe the village will let me back in.. But Itachi is NOT what I was expecting... He's really hot, to be honest... Gah! What the hell am I thinking?! This is going to be a long journey...

"Fine. I'll go." I said.

Itachi just started to walk away. When I didn't walk with him, he turned around signaling for me to come. 

~Time Skip~

I felt like we were walking for hours! Well, which we were, but still! No fucking breaks between! Suddenly Itachi stopped and I bumped into his back.

"Ouch! ugh, why did you stop?"

Itachi quickly grabbed me and pulled me into the trees.

"What the fuck dude! let go of m-"

"Uzumaki-san," Itachi said in a quiet voice. "There are people passing by. We don't want to start a ruckus now do we?" 

I quickly shook my head. 

"Good." He said. 

As I was pushed up against the tree with him, I was able to smell him. Which is weird, but what else could I do? That musky scent... It made me feel safe, in an unusual sort of way. Wow... I can smell this all day but never get tired of it.

"Uzumaki-san, let's go. We're getting close. But it's close to nightfall, we shall make camp here." Itachi said as he started to his pack that magically appeared out of nowhere. 

"Oh... Ok." I said.

As we set up for camp, everything was quiet. It was getting awkward. 

"Uzumaki-san, there is a river near here. You can go wash up, cause you look like crap right now." He said as his usually stoic face slipped into a small smile, which of course disappeared as fast as soon as it came.

I almost choked on the water I was given. I almost forgot about the fight I had with Sasuke yesterday.

"Oh. Yes! I should..." I exclaimed as I got up. "I'll be back!"

As I walked through the tree's I soon found the river. I must say, it was really beautiful tonight. the water was glistening under the moonlight. When I was out of my clothes, I stepped into the unexpectedly warm water. Once I was fully submerged, I realized how dirty I was. How did I not notice this?!

Thinking about past events, everything was so confusing. I was banished from the place I called my home, the very place I have protected ever since I became a genin. Damn teme! It's all his fault! If only he came back instead of becoming obsessed about power everything wouldn't have happened. But Itachi is actually pretty cool...

Wait

Did I just say that? Arghh, maybe I hit my head too hard. 

After I was done, I saw Itachi still up tending the small fire. I walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Shouldn't you be asleep?" I asked.

"I don't sleep very much." was all Itachi said.

"Ya know, that's not healthy," I remarked.

Itachi didn't say anything as he continued with the fire. When I looked at him, I suddenly had all these questions running through my head. Why did he kill his family? Why leave Sasuke-

My thoughts were interrupted when Itachi spoke up.

"I can feel your eyes on me. Do you have a question?"

Crap. How did he do that?

He sighed. "Go ahead."

Wow. Wasn't expecting that. But then again, wasn't expecting a lot of things.

"Well," I started. "Why did you kill your whole family? Why only leave Sasuke?"

It was at that moment when it looked like the world was set upon his shoulders. His tiredness appeared.

"It wasn't like I wanted to kill them. I didn't want to kill tou-san or Kaa-san. But, they were.. how do say this? They were not good. Since I was smart and basically a child prodigy, they wanted to use me for their own purposes. Then the Third Hokage... asked me to kill them all. Even the children who did nothing wrong. I only left Sasuke because I wanted him to grow up with a hatred for me so that one day he will kill me."

When I processed the information that was given, I felt bad for him. Everyone in the village hated him when he was basically forced to do it. But saying he wanted Sasuke to kill him.. it was like a prolonged suicide wish.

"I don't get sleep because each time I close my eyes, the horror of that night replays in my mind," he sighs. "Uzumaki-san, you need to sleep. We are heading to Amekagure in the morning."

"Ok! Oh, and don't use the formalities, just call me Naruto," I said. He paused before he said,

"Alright, goodnight Naruto."

I laughed, "Night Tachi."
