The Price Of Loving Him... (Itachi x reader)

Chapter 180

I do not own pic!

This world keeps shuffling and changing, full of illusions and mischief, you were still trying to find Itachi, you can feel his presence but where is he exactly?! The thought of Itachi's dark side meeting you again made you even more worried, you can't just keep running randomly like this, his dake side keeps shuffling everything around in a way so the two of you wouldn't meet, and he is enjoying this, taking his time to see your helpless attempts to find Itachi and leave this cursed world.

You stopped and closed your eyes for a while thinking, the dark side mentioned something about a scroll Itachi fell under its effect the moment he looked into it...as if it had put him under his a genjutsu created by his own self using his chakra and stamina, a world where his dark side is released and rules around...this world is getting more gloomy and dark, a sign of its near ending and collapsing...which means Itachi is getting more worn out with every passing second...
To survive you need to find Itachi soon without wasting any time, and release him from this curse, hopefully your Mangekyo Sharingan and unsealing abilities will work and be enough to do this...you will not find him this way quickly if the two of you keep moving around, one of you needs to stop, while the other one keeps looking until finding the other.
You climed on top of a high building, taking a look around, it was getting darker...you tried to focus and look through the mirage around... you noticed one single building in the farthest side of the place that doesn't move...it looked familiar, it looked like your own home...if you wanna meet Itachi soon, you need to wait for him in a place that doesn't move or disappear, you know he will figure out the rest on his own.

"[Name]!!", Itachi called, walking around instead of hurrying, trying not to exhaust himself more.
"Itachi...", he stopped once hearing a certain feminine voice he knows very well, no...it can't be...

"Mother?!...", he muttered seeing his mother standing in front of their old home beside his dad as the place changed quickly turning into the Uchuha old district. Though he knew it was just an illusion, it was so beautiful to see his parents alive again and resist not to go to them, it all feels the same way as before years ago...it felt so right!
"We have been waiting for you, son", his father said as Itachi remained standing still, finding himself at the old Uchiha district, people walking around normally as it all turned from darkness into a beautiful sunny day...

"N-no...", Itachi muttered, trying to ignore them, he narrowed his eyes, knowing it is a trick from his dark side to slow him down from finding [name].
"Itachi! I finally found you! Man! Where have you been?!"
'Shisui?!', Itachi turned around surprised, feeling a slight tap on his shoulder, and seeing his cousin and best friend smiling warmly at him, "Shisui...", the desire inside Itachi to hug them all, and tell them how things went, to apologize... everything looked so real, it looks just like before, none of them seem to notice that he changed and had grew up, maybe they still see him as young as he used to be.

"Here you are, Itachi...", he looked around hearing another feminine voice joining them, of course, who else could it be? Izumi.
"We were waiting for you!", she said with a sweet smile holding his hand while he remained speechless.

"Alright, you three can go for now, but Itachi, don't be late, we need to talk later", Fugaku said nodding at them while Mikoto gave Itachi an approval smile at what his father said.

Who said he wants this?!

Time seemed to roll back...he seems to he back to the past years ago, the bad part about it was that he was starting getting even weaker, as he looses more chakra and slowly starting to accept giving up, he doesn't wanna stay and he knows this can't be the truth...but something inside him pushing him to just ignore everything else and restart his life again here...

But here...there will be no [name]...

He gasped as he got back to his senses, idiot! What is he thinking?! That's exactly what the dark Itachi wants from him!
"Itachi! wait!", Shisui called as Itachi ignored them and walked past him and Izumi, they tried to follow him for a while, but then disappeared once he bent down and grabbed an Uchiha bracelet from the ground, the bracelet he knows very well...

"This is the only real thing in this world...", he whispered as he looked closely at it, the Uchiha district around him disappeared, his parents, Shisui and Izumi and even the other people passing by as well..he found himself again alone in the gloomy dark abandoned area.
He smiled, his reality now is better than this dream, the past is over...he is a new person now, he has a new family to love and protect, he got over all of that...he loves what he has now.

He took the bracelet and put it in his pocket, it looks like you already understood what's going on here [name], he got your hint, he just needs to follow your traces and find you, there must other clues around somewhere...
He walked more, looking around with his Sharingan for anything else from you, he was sure he'd find something...he just needs to look closely...
He smirked once he found a piece of clothe, similar to the fabric of the kimono you have been wearing, with a [h/c] hair swirled around it, he walked more as he found more similar pieces, until he arrived to a spot where there wasn't anymore. He noticed that he had gotten far and was almost out of the village, he looked up to see one single house left a distance away, it doesn't seem to change or disappear like the rest of things here, [name] must be there, it could be a trap set by his dark side to lure him there, but still...he can't find out unless he gets there, and he better does it before all his enegery is sucked out of him by this world, or else, none of you will survive.
