Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Path to Greatness ❯ A Darkened Day ( Chapter 21 )

 

 

“Itachi where are we going any way?” Haoku whined for the fifth time.

 

“We're going to fine and retrieve the nine tailed fox.” He snapped

 

“But … but it was sealed … by the fourth Hokage himself.” She stuttered

 

“It was sealed inside his son … Naruto … Naruto Uzamaki.”

 

Auntie Uzamaki … no …

 

“Leave her alone Itachi … she didn't know.” Kisame said

 

Itachi sighed “She doesn't know anything Kisame … she's just stupid.”

 

Haoku gritted her teeth and took her verbal abuse, it was always Itachi who tried to annoy her and get on her nerves, drive her more insane by ever passing moment. “I'm saner than the fool that stands before me.”

 

These two are always causing trouble … will they ever get along? Kisame thought

 

Itachi sighed and continued to walk not even looking back “Listen runt, you're not even worth my time.”

 

Grrr … I'll show you Itachi … Haoku ran up to him and jumped on his back, her legs wrapped around his torso and her arms locked around his throat tightly. “Take it back Weasel Boy!!!”

 

“Never …” He managed to stutter

 

Kisame shook his head in disapproval and continued to walk.

 

“I said take it back!” She released one of her arms from his throat and gave his long black pony tail a hard jerk.

 

Itachi yelped “Quit … it.” He staggered up to a tree and began to bash her against it.

 

Haoku screamed in pain “Take it back Mr. Weasel and maybe you'll get some love from your gay boyfriend!!!”

 

Itachi's eyes flared up and he rammed her into the tree one last time then scraped her off to where she fell onto the ground bleeding. “Listen girl … for the millionth time … I'M NOT GAY!!!”

 

“Oh yeah … sorry, you're bi.” She said giggling.

 

“Uh oh …” Kisame muttered “This is not gong to end well … whoa de za vou … for the fifteenth time …”

 

Kisame appeared just in time to trip Itachi and sit on him. “Calm down Itachi … she's just a little whelp.”

 

Haoku was used to Kisame's insults for some reason, probably because he didn't mean it, most of the time it was just to save her from Itachi.

 

Itachi let out a low pitched grunt to agree with him so he would get off.

 

Kisame nodded and smiled as he stood up. “See aren't things better when you two aren't trying to kill each other?”

 

“No …” The both muttered “I hate him/ her.”

 

“Listen you two; we won't have a mission if you two kill each other for the enemy.”

 

Itachi grunted once more and walked off back on the path.

 

 

Later That Day

 

“Come on you guys, I'm tired of waiting!” Haoku moaned from leaning against a large itchy pine tree, looking over the town where Naruto and Jiraiya were staying temporarily.

 

“Yeah, it's time to move in for the kill … the nine tailed fox will be ours.” Itachi said then Kisame interrupted.

 

Itachi took Haoku by the hand and teleported to a motel where they had sensed the nine tailed beast's aura.

 

“So … this is it?” Haoku stuttered

 

“Yes …” Itachi said knocking on the door.

 

Naruto … no … Hokage-sama … run please … you can't die here …

 

Just like expected, the blonde haired boy appeared in the door.

 

“Huh?”

 

“Naruto … come with us.” Itachi commanded in his monotone voice.

 

Naruto did as ordered and walked out of the room closing the door behind him.

 

No … Hokage-sama … run … please … just run…

 

“Hey Itachi, it would be a lot of trouble if this kid decided to run, so just as a precaution, how about I just chop of a leg?” Kisame grinned his arm reaching up and rapping around Samehada.

 

I have to warn him …

 

“Haoku opened her mouth to yell as loud as possible the word RUN! But no words came out, her throat was swollen and her mouth was dry. It was impossible to do anything but stand there and watch them touchier the Hokage of her time.

 

“Itachi!!!” A familiar voice yelled

 

“Sasuke … no …” Haoku whispered.
