Chapter !@

Owari

 

Black eyes stared into red. This time though, it was Sasuke with the his Sharengan turned on.

 

There was a long silence as the two brothers just stared at each other. Then Sasuke broke the silence.

 

“I knew it. I knew you just couldn't, even just this once, lie down and stay dead.”

 

Itachi rose to his feet, his hand still in Sakura's as he stepped slightly forward in defense.

 

“I always was stubborn like that.”

 

“Sasuke...” Both brothers turned there gaze to Sakura's form, still on the ground.

 

“...please, just leave us alone. We used to be friends, now I'm asking you as my friend, please.”

 

Sasuke's gaze sofened. He remembered back to the times when they were friends. Before Orochimaru, before all the fights they had as enemies, before the countless attempts to try and bring him back. In the end, he had finaly made a deal with Naruto to help him in exchange for him coming back. Which brought him back to the subject at hand. Itachi. He killed his family and stole Sakura away from him! And she had willingly gone with him and made that bastard a FATHER!!

 

Seething rage boiled in his vains as he clenched his fist. No, he would not forgive them, he wouldn't let him go.

 

“I'm afraid I can't do that Sakura. And if you'll try to stop me,” he slipped the Kunai in his sleeve into his hand “Then I'll kill you to!”

 

He through the kunai at her, but it was block by Itachi who moved to guard her, more effectivly. Growling in frustration, Sasuke pulled his katana it's sheth on his back aiming it directly at Itachi's heart. Running full speed at them, katana in hand, he was barly able to register the fact that his young neice had mve in front in an attempt to save her parents, screaming.

 

“NO, UNCLE DON'T DO IT!!!!!”

 

There was a sikening scream from Sakura as the blood splattered on the ground from the wound. Aiko's eyes were tightly close. Blood, there was so much blood that she could practicly taste it in her mouth. Yet...she felt no pain. Was she dead already.

 

She opened her eyes only to notice that she was surrounded in black. Now that she thought about it, she very well could be dead, but, did being dead always have this heavy feeling. She felt as if she had a full grown man laying on her. Suddenly she felt the weight being pulled off as her surrounding came into full veiw.

 

She wasn't dead. She wasn't even hurt. Then... who? As the man was pulled off her she caught a glimps of orange as blood dripped onto her face from the underneth the mask.

 

`No...no, no, no!' she thought as she scrambled out from underneith her friend. She quickly knelt by his side as he was lowered to the ground by her father.

 

“Tobi, oh Tobi, why did you do it! What the hell were you thinking!!” Sakura should have scolded her daughter for her language, but right now she could really care less.

 

“I...made... a promise.”

 

Aiko looked at him in shock.

 

“...What?”

 

“I promised... that I would protect you.”

 

Tears welled up in her eyes.

 

“What the hell good is a promise like that if you're DEAD!”

 

She broke into sobs on his blood soaked chest, and he laid a hand softly on her head. Another friend was dieing and it was all her fault... again. This realization only made her cry harder.

 

Sakura knelt beside her broken daughter and her wounded friend.

 

“Aiko, it's okay. Go to your father now.” She said this softly while trying to pursuaide her daughter, physically, to separate from the bleeding man. Eventually, she obediantly got up and moved to where her father stood.

 

Sakura knelt over Tobi's body and spoke to him softly.

“Tobi, you were very brave. Thank You for saving my daughter.”

 

“I'm just glad I made it in time, Miss Sakura. I admit, I was scared that I wouldn't.”

 

Sakura smiled at the name.

 

“Honestly, Tobi. I think we can move past the `Miss' can't we?”

 

“I would never dream of it, Miss Sakura!” He said in mock appal, but soon regreted it because a wave of pain soon washed over his body.

 

“Sorry, let me fix that.”

 

She closed her eyes as she placed her hands over his wound. After a little bit her hands seemed to glow a beautiful pearlecent blue. After a while, the hole started to close up. A few more minutes later, the wound was completely gone. Tobi sat up and marveled at the hole in his cloak where the wound used to be. Sakura helped him to stand, but he was quickly knocked over when Aiko tackled him.

 

“Tobi, you're okay! I'm so happy!!” she laughed as she snuggled into his chest.

 

Tobi laughed with her when suddenly something came to his attention. He held her tightly as she looked up at him.

 

“Tobi? What's wrong?”

 

“Where's Sasuke?” his voice was dark and menicing as he looked around.

 

Itachi stepped forward and through Sasuke's unconcious body onto the ground.

 

“I knocked him out cold.”

 

Sighing in relief, Tobi's grip on Aiko slackened but she still held him tight as she glared at her uncle. That bastard tried to kill her parents, and almost killed her and Tobi!”

 

“Okaa-san, was he the one who tried to kill Otou-san?”

 

Sakura looked at her in slight shock, then looked down.

 

“Yes, he tried to kill your father.”

 

“...I knew there was a reason I hated him.”

 

Her father chuckled.

 

Tobi stood with Aiko in his arms. Itachi turned to Sakura.

“Do you think it's safe for you to stay her anymore?”

 

Sakura seemed to think for a second, then nodded.

 

“I don't think I really have anything to fear just yet. Soon, maybe, but not just yet. Eventually, I will go with you, but right now it would look too suspicious.”

 

Itachi nodded with a pained longing expression in his eyes and quickly captured her lips in a passionate kiss.

 

When Tobi and Aiko saw this Aiko giggled and Tobi blushed and quickly turned around so as to sheild the young girl from the adult situation.

 

Itachi broke the kis and hugged her to him.

 

“I don't want to leave you again.” he whisper painfully into her ear.

 

“It's okay. This time you're taking our daughter with you.” she whispered back.

 

“But you'll be alone.”

 

“As long as I know you two are alright, I'll never be alone.” She said pulling away.

 

“So write often!” she hit him in the arm playfully and gave him a smile.

 

He wiped away the stray tear that managed to escape the stonghold that was her shimmering eyes. He gave her another light kiss and smiled.

 

“My Sakura is so strong.”

 

“I know. I love you, my Itachi.”

 

“I love you, my Sakura.”

 

He backed away fully and followed Tobi back to the rest of the group, who sat there in shock at what had just occured before their eyes. They soon recovered when they noticed they were about to leave.

 

Aiko waved goodbye to her mother from the safty of Tobi's arms.

 

“Be good Aiko, I love you!”

 

She nodded, and they each jumped one by one into the trees. Leaving Tobi with Aiko and Itachi to linger just a bit longer before they too jumped after the rest.

 

Sakura sighed as she held herself. never before had she felt so lonely.

“But I'm not alone.” She said, shaking herself.

 

“As long as they're alive,” she looked to the full moon. “Be safe.”

Somewhere on the outskirts of the village, Itachi stared at the same moon, hoping that she would be alright.
