Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Crossing to the Other side ❯ Sharingan 2 ( Chapter 12 )

 

 

 

“Itachi-sama?” Kisame watched his partner staring out into the distance his gaze level his chakra gathered around his body like a dark cloud.

“Kisame our priorities have changed. I want the girl, its obvious my little brother does not know she is a Uchiha but he will in short order and I just can't allow that to happen.” Kisame waited, Itachi was picky on some things and apparently this was going to be one of them.

“Do you still want to pursue Naruto-kun as well as the girl?” the dark haired ex-Konoha ninja didn't move but his eyes cut to the blue skinned man beside him Sharingan eyes flashing menacingly.

“We will acquire both and we will return tonight.” Kisame just nodded his head unwilling to challenge the other man. His logic was fair Kakashi wouldn't be expecting an attack neither would the others so closely following the first. Turning the oldest Uchiha disappeared into the trees with the fading light the older man shivered slightly it never failed to unnerve him that Itachi could be so cold blooded about his family, but he reasoned, family could hinder you at times.

 

 

Blonde, pink and black blurred around the clearing followed by dark brown, a cackling could be heard as the group chased after one red head. Flipping in the air a flash went off temporarily blinding her opponents and the red head smiled forming her seals she created a bushin quickly masking her chakra and hiding. She couldn't decide what was funnier getting a picture of Sasuke crossing his eyes at his blonde haired brother behind his back or drawings of Sasuke that Sakura had been working on quietly, or maybe the small detailed drawing at the bottom of said page of Lee without a shirt. Other pictures followed, Neji getting pushed into the stream by Ten-Ten for some reason or another, the anger red flush to the older woman's face was a chance she couldn't pass up so she snapped a shot the flash catching them both off guard and she barely dodged the kunai launched at her. She wasn't a prankster by nature but after acquiring the camera at the last town they had passed though before the attack was an opportunity to capture her friends and pursue a hobby she missed.

She had forgotten the camera until an hour ago once the meal had finished and even Naruto was tense. He made an attempt to distract his teammates with a joke even though it was funny and they laughed the tension was still present so Kat took it upon herself to relieve the atmosphere, and that is why she found herself now hiding and struggling to keep from giving her position, her nostrils flared ever time she felt the need to laugh she fought the urge clutching her camera to her chest.

When her clone was caught and popped she darted out of hiding racing back to camp in a straight line hoping it would throw them off. No such luck, Naruto lunged at her from a tree branch right above her head going for a flying tackle, she tucked and rolled coming to her feet and ran. Naruto's picture wasn't nearly as bad he and Sasuke had been arguing (again) and the dark haired shinobi remarked at how retarded he was acting so Naruto stuck his finger up his nose slurred his speech and growled that he might be retard but at least he wasn't a bastard. She snapped the picture before he could remove his finger when he turned his back Sasuke rolled his eyes and after making sure no one could see him crossed his eyes at the blondes back and very childishly stuck his tongue out which garnered her another priceless piece of bribery. Unfortunately the Uchiha had seen the flash and heard her giggling from the bushes and given chase, demanding she hand over the camera after that, the others figured out distressingly fast what the flashes where.

She was almost back to the camp when she found her self face to face with the sparking eyes of one pissed Hyuuga, tucking her camera safely into her shirt front in the inside pocket she spun to retreat only to have Ten-Ten reaching out to grab her from behind, dropping down she scissored her legs making the other do a split and rolled over one shoulder into a crutch.

“You will hand over that camera Katsuo-san.” Neji growled.

“Ahh…no.” she smiled cheekily at him and surged into the trees catching a branch and using the momentum to propel herself forward to escape. Neji wasn't far behind, changing tactic's she turned around and attacked him effectively startling him missing his chance to grab her and instead landed on his back on the floor of the small grove with a grunt. His brow wrinkling in concentration he stood up one eyebrow arched something was nagging him he could have sworn he saw a flash of red in the girls eyes.

Kat meanwhile was dodging Sakura and Sasuke as they combined their attacks to catch her.

“I just want to see your camera Kat.” Sakura asked in her sweetest voice, Kat shook her head biting her lip to keep from laughing. Sasuke had a reputation to maintain and the picture Kat had of him was not something he wanted floating around so he, Sakura and Naruto devised a plan to take the camera from their teammate. They would use Sakura's strength maneuver the girl towards Naruto who was hiding with two other clones in the trees at the edge of the clearing to leap out and capture their quarry, Sasuke would use his Sharingan to keep her from noticing the blonde. With the plan in place and working so far Sasuke activated the Sharingan, yes he realized it was a petty use of his Kekki Genki and yes it wouldn't be that hard to eventually get the camera later but he didn't want the Hyuuga getting it before they did. He could live with the dobe and Sakura maybe knowing the contents of the camera but he would be damned if he let that irritating Hyuuga see!

 

“LEE!” Ten-Ten shouted for her green clad teammate, he was the only one to escape the picture fend. Jumping to the top of the nearest wagon she scanned the darkening forest, since the moon was half full the light it provided was minimal, and she thanked Kami that the stars where out and it was cloudless night. She was embarrassed enough from shoving Neji into that stream but it was made ten times worse for Kat to have taken a picture of the act as well as the results. Praying that Neji would get to the camera before Team 7 she called out for her missing teammate again.

“LEE, where the hell could he be?”

“Yes Ten-Ten-chan?” Lee appeared in front of her and she crossed her arms over her chest and glared at him.

“We need to get a camera from Katsuo-san.” She pointed in the direction she had seen Sakura and Sasuke making for just as a loud explosion sounded followed by a shockwave of power and killing intent.

 

 

Kat sailed though the air, she had nothing to brace her flight and she slammed into a tree coughing up blood as she slid down the trunk landing on the ground with a grunt of pain.

“SAKURA!” Naruto shouted coming out of his hiding place to walk to the girl.

“That wasn't me!” she answered looking around she saw Sasuke his eyes fixed with anger into the woods.

“Naruto get Kat and get over here NOW!” Sasuke ordered.

“I am teme!” Naruto growled picking Kat up and jumping to his friends as he spoke.

“Back so soon Itachi?” Kakashi asked in a bored tone. He had sensed the others presence just before the explosion, standing in the spot Kat had occupied before the explosion Kisame was picking up his sword to rest it back on his shoulder.

“Hatake Kakashi I have no wish to kill you.”

Naruto was still holding Kat as they spoke she didn't mind but now was not the time to be dwelling on her hormone driven desires for the blonde.

“You can put me down Naruto.” He glanced down at her like he had forgotten he was holding her and stood her on her feet gently.

“Don't look him in the eye.” He told her quietly, “Watch his feet.” In a louder voice he addressed the others, “What you didn't get enough of an ass kicking last time?” Out the corner of her eye Kat saw Sakura sweat drop and Sasuke smirk his lips moved in a silent `Dobe'.

“Naruto-kun as brash as ever.” Itachi addressed the blonde, “You will however find your way to return with me.” Kat growled her fists clenching, she didn't care who this bastard was but this was the second time he had come after Naruto, Sakura had informed her about the Akatsuki briefly and their desire to get Naruto, with the knowledge she had already about Naruto and the subtle hints about the Kazekage of Suna and his run in she put two and two together, Naruto would die if they captured him and all for what he carried keeping others safe. She didn't notice her eyes shifting to red, the Sharingan spinning madly, gritting her teeth and her fists clenched, her eyes flickered to Neji who was making his stealthy way behind Itachi. Kisame was turning to look at his partner and acting before anyone else she called out her taunt to Itachi.

“FAT CHANCE FAIRY!” The Uchiha's eyes widened slightly as he regard her, Sasuke's eye twitched she didn't look at the others she was to busy engaging the killer in a staring contest Sharingan to Sharingan. His hands flickered and both Sasuke and Kat reacted.

“MOVE!” they both yelled, Sasuke pulled Sakura out of the way and Kat shouldered Naruto as a huge fireball shot towards them. Kakashi dodged forming Suiton Suiryuudan no Jutsu the dragon of water surrounded the fireball stopping it from hitting the wagons. Neji attacked from the shadows his Byakugan long since active, he had seen his chance when Kat distracted the Akatsuki members but that wasn't all he had seen. The Sharingan was spinning in the girls eyes one fully formed the other not far behind, when this was over he would have answers to the questions that where forming but for now Itachi had his back to him and the acting quickly he used Jyuken. It would have been successful if Itachi's partner hadn't spotted him at the last second coming into Hakke Rokujuyon Sho stance he engaged Kisame.
