(28) A late night walk

"Please, Sasuke don't."

"oh, now this will not end well, I can't watch" I whimpered

"c'mon, wake up, wake up, you got to" I cried as a light green aura emitted from my palm

"Do you have a death wish Sasuke! you idiot of a brother, don't!"

"Idiot brother is right indeed" I grumbled

"shut up you stupid fish" I struggled in the fish mans grasp 'no, no, no! how can I let this happen; how could I be so naive and trusting, is that a bad thing?! what was I thinking....'

"well, well, well, lookie what we have here."

"after all this time. I finally get to see you face to face....isn't that right....Itachi"

I want answer and I want them now." my sharingan flash a blazing red with a storm of emotions behind them

"Why, why did you do it"

'why' was the only thing going through my mind

OOF! I felt myself trip over...air!?...'how embarrassing' I sweat drop with a deadpanned look 'I hope no one was around to see that' it brought me back to reality, breaking my train of thought

"w-what going on" Tamaki groans 'oh I forget I was caring her'

--_-------‾‾‾-----‾_‾‾‾------‾‾‾‾‾‾__________FLASH BACK-----__________--_--_-_--=_--___--

"don't eat too much, you'll get sick" I teased

"says you" Tamaki playfully retorted

*15 minutes later*

"I told ya" I sing-songed

"don't...say...another.. word" she moans c-can you "do me a favor and take me home" she groans turning green a bit in the face

I shake my head in disappointment and sighed "get on" I simply said as she crawls on my back "Mitsuri-san isn't gonna be happy" I pointed out, trying to balance both of our weight

"I know...probably I'll be grounded for a week or two" she sighed

"yeah, I guess...good luck, you'll need it"

"for sure"

--_-------‾‾‾-----‾_‾‾‾------‾‾‾‾‾‾__________END-----__________--_--_-_--=_--___--

"uh, nothing Ki-ki" I said "were almost there" I added

"good. I shouldn't eaten all that"

"yeah, indeed now Mitsuri-san's gonna be really mad that you ruined your dinner"

"shut up" she groans bit annoyed "-and just keep walking"

"stop complaining now your giving me a headache, will ya" I yelled

//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\

"girls, what happened!" Mitsuri-san said frantically and conceded

"Tamaki ate to much...again" I bluntly say

"Thanks a lot" she deadpanned

"what have I told you about eating before dinner! Now you ruined your dinner" Miss Mitsuri scolded Tamaki

"Kireina-chan why don't you stay" she asked holding a trembling Tamaki in her grasp as she sweat drops from her fear of her mother's rage

"Kekkōdesu" I simply said "I have other plans but thanks anyway" I said, she gave a small nod proceeding to drag her daughter in the house

I turned heel heading to my destination, the old Uchiha estate

=======================

I was still riffling through the stuff, still looking for some clue, or something at least. I went through and found some old weapons that I think could've belonged to ether Itachi or papa. There were a couple of katakanas and short swords-so that means that this room was some type of armory or training area of sorts-"oh what a beautiful blade this is" I mutter as I lay my eyes on a pair of duel blades "Now what do we have here" I muttered "aren't these beautiful" picking them up and examining them.

I was in, I assume the library most like as I was looking at an old photo album. I then come to a picture of Sasuke and me and.....Itachi. we were sitting by a tree as Sasuke was on his lap, sleeping, and I was on his shoulders my head resting on his. 'we look so happy' I wiped away a few stray tears as I closed the book and put it in my ninja pouch 'what could've change' I frowned then shaking my head off the thought

I was walking around aimless as I was deep in thought I didn't notice that I had bumped into someone "Gomen'nasai" I muttered continuing to walk down the mostly quiet streets

"Something maybe troubling you young Uchiha" I heard a voice say

"who want to know" I retorted with my signature Uchiha glare

Then I felt some one appear behind me making me jump just the slightest, glancing back I see the old gasbag. 'Does he have nothing better to do'

"hmpf, Does you have nothing better to do" I said out loud putting my hands behind my neck lazily. I saw a small vein pop out of his forehead but he kept a cool demeanor non the less

"I never pegged you to be cold princess" he commented

"just having a bad day, I guess" I simply said and turned heel

"may it be Itachi that's bothering you" my eye twitched a bit but my back was facing him so he didn't see my reaction

"Listen here, you know nothing about me nor my family so but out!" I growled

"I'm so sorry my dear-"

"Itachi was kind and caring he would never do something as horrible as to kill them" I shouted "....he can't...can he?!" whispered the last part to myself, glancing at the ground

"I'm also in disbelief, I wouldn't have thought that itachi would do something like that." he said "maybe he was set up"

"if he was then by who?!" I muttered "who could possibly want an entire clan gone" I said to no one in particular, pondering to myself

"I don't know my dear"

'oh, did I say that out loud' I glanced with a blank and slightly annoyed expression 'Why won't people just leave me alone I just want to be alone is that too much to ask'

"If I may ask" he started "I may know a way for you to get stronger"

"I don't want power" I spat back my glance narrowed into a death glare at him

"I see. Let me rephrase I know you may not desire power but if you want to comfort him you'll need it, need to become stronger, am I not wrong" 'he's not wrong even Onii-chan couldn't even lay a scratch on Itachi-nii' I unconsciously cried a bit at the memory "I can help you achieve strength that's even stronger than both your brothers" I kept my glance at my feet just listing to the silence around me "think about it my dear the power at your fingertips to archive whatever you desire"

"and what may that be" I rhetorically say, my eyes narrowed a bit

"the truth that you deeply desire and the happiness you crave" he simply said

my eyes widen like discs for a brief moment 'can I really-no I can do this I don't need anyone's help. I can do this on my own' I shake my head a bit as I narrowed my eyes into a neural glance "Kekkōdesu, but I can get stronger on my own thank you very much" I say with a hint of sass at the last part starting to walk off towards my apartment
