Chapter Six

Parent Vs Child Part Two

||Itachi||

Idiots! Both of them.

I slammed my fist ageist the solid trunk of the tree and I could feel the veins bursting from my forehead.

It hadn't ever been half the time we had been given and they had already been captured. I even took the time to help Jiraiya out by revealing the shadow clone his father had created but then Kushina as usual had to come and ruin everything.

I sighed. Looks like it was up to me and at least I knew what I was doing . . . Ok, maybe hiding wasn't the best idea but it wasn't like I was gonna go looking for him. No way, he would crashed me in two seconds flat.

What I needed was a plan. At least Jiraiya thought up a trap, I had nothing! I mean nothing. Sooner or later I was gonna have to go up ageist him and I rather it be later then sooner.

The trees made a great hiding spot amongst the leaves and I was determined to stay there. Maybe I was being a coward but this was the worst possible test for me. God damn it!

I twitched. My hair sticking up on end as I heard something behind me, the rustling of leaves. Paranoid or prepared either way I reached into my pouch and grasped as much as I could in one hand.

The noise happened a second time and I moved before it could reveal itself. Something was there and just in case, I didn't want to find out.

I landed on the ground just a bit away from where Jiraiya was being pulled from his own trap. I really wish I was in the trap right about now, we would of failed but at least the test would of been over and done with.

I watched from a distance still hidden in the trees as the two struggled in the rope. Maybe I could set a trap? I doubt he would fall for it but at least I could say I tired . . .

I ducked. A high pitched whistle whooshing past my ears. What the hell was that! I looked at the tree I had just standing by and right about where my head had been and not one or two but six sliver Kunai had pieced the trunk of the tree. My eye twitched.

" Are you trying to kill me! " I shouted extremely frustrated. Does he have any idea how close that was!

" Maybe " A voice answered back behind a tree and I knew exactly who it was.

Great! He had found me.

I took a deep breath. " Let's get this over and done with " I whispered to myself.

I took a step back and pulled out the handful of weapons I had grasped. Well here's goes nothing.

" Hold on " His ever so calm voice paused me for a second " Instead of battling like cowards hidden within these trees why don't we fight one on one, father and son in font of the others out on the open field " He suggested " It's more, how do I put it decent that way "

I thought about the idea for a while before I released that I didn't have choice.

" Yeah sure " I said returning my ninja tools.

God dammit, I'm gonna regret getting out of bed this morning!

We stood face to face. Everyone else's eyes were on us and I suddenly felt extremely nervous. He looked almost bored, as if he knew this was going to be a peace of cake and I quickly looked down. I watched the wind pick up a few leaves and travel them across the open area. I couldn't stand looking him in the eyes any longer. To tell you the truth I was scared of my father but not of his physical strengths or stories I had heard about his past but of what he thought of me. I was scared of disappointing him. Sure I mucked up sometimes and caused dramas but they were only minor things my parents brushed off surprisingly quickly but I was scared of doing something as a Shinobi that would shame my family and make him truly hate me and I felt that if I stuffed up this fight that's exactly what was going to happen.
