“Itachi?” the Third asked curiously. However, before he even said another word, Itachi was gone. Only a note was left on the

ground.

The note said:

Go to the foundation of heroes; I have there my child. I have sacrificed everything. He is my child; take care of him for me.

Make him the strongest. Make him a legend. This is the only payment I ask of you.

The Third quietly whispered to himself. He

Sarutobi walked to the academy. He slowly went to his goal since people were everywhere. They were panicking about what

was happening to the Uchiha Clan. He carefully went left, right and left aga

The Hokage gazed around him. It was dark and gloomy. He thought that the academy was abandoned until he saw a figure

on the swing.

Itachi waited for his Sensei on the dark and depressing forest. He was scanning his surroundings,

what the Hokage will tell him. He was scared yet excited. He was already waiting for about half an hour now. He was starting

to get worried about the Hokage. Sarutobi was never late in any of their meetings. So, Itachi decided to

“I am sorry, pal. The Hokage is in a meeting right now. No one can go in.”

“You are0” Itachi mumbled slowly.

“HUH?” The masked figure answered lazily.

“You are Hatake Kakashi. The, uhm, Copy Ninja right? I have heard about yo

“Hah. You talk like your old.” Kakashi chuckled. “Wait, your eyes0you are probably Hyuuga Itachi, eh?”

“Yeah, how did you know?” Itachi blushed, feeling embarrassed.

“You are pretty famous. The Third told me that you have been promoted to Jounin. How old are you?”

“I’m 13.”

“Hmm. Did you know your dad was 13 when he became an ANBU captain?”

Itachi bent his head down and looked away.

“He was a great shin obi, you know. People should also remember that he has done a lot for this village. Well, but there is

also the thing he did0”

“Thanks for acknowledging him. No one ever does that. Heh. I feel so honored talking to such a great ninja. Oh, same goes

“People think he has both of them because of the relationship between Itachi and Hinashi! At least we have a cover for it. He

is not really their son! We do not even know what the whereabouts or where he is from!”

“ENOUGH! I am watching over him-”

“Just like you did with Orochimaru..” Danzo added.

“Don’t you dare compare him to-”

A pat on the shoulder gave Itachi a thrill. “What the!” He tried to move, but he couldn’t.

“What are you trying to do, Itachi?” a familiar voice said.

“Damn. Temporary Paralysis Technique, used by the ANBU.” Itachi thought and realized that the voice was Kakashi’s.

“Heh. So you know about the ANBU’s technique. Come on now, you shouldn’t have been doing that. That was a top-secret

meeting.”

Kakashi’s hand suddenly felt a sharp, piercing pain. He jumped back and prepared a kunai.

“I have no plan of betraying the village. They think I am the likes of Orochimaru! You’re probably thinking about how I

escaped your technique, eh? I released chakra from my body. Not really a surprise for a Hyuuga.”

“Hmph. I have no choice-”

“Kakashi, that is enough. He did not mean any harm. He just wanted to know where I was. Although, Itachi, don’t do that

again.”

“Sorry, Hokage-sama.” Itachi said shamefully.

“Anyways, its perfect that you guys are here. Though, it looks like you guys are mad at each other.” the Hokage chortled.

“No, it was just that I thought, well it doesn’t matter now. We got introduced a while ago.” Kakashi said, probably with a smile

beneath his mask.

“Perfect. Anyhow, as you know, Itachi, Kakashi also has Sharingan. He also only has one. So, I was thinking, you two can

get to know each other. Kakashi can teach you how to use the Sharingan to the fullest.”

“Yeah, however, I still have to learn one thing. Do you or have you ever used your Sharingan? Do you know the basics of it?

Do you get tired when you use it?”

“Hold it, Kakashi. Let us not do this here. Let’s go somewhere else.” the Hokage performed a hand seal and the three

disappeared in a puff of smoke.

-----

“So it doesn’t hurt you a bit when you use it0 How about we try your Sharing an a little bit.”

“OK.”

“All you need to do is copy the techniques I use. Counter them with the same technique.”

“Katon: Grand Fireball Technique!”

“Katon: Grand Fireball Technique!”

“Suiton: Water Dragon Jutsu!”

“Suiton: Water-” Itachi was pushed away by the water dragon.

“I see. That jutsu had a total of more than 50 hand seals. Your Sharingan only has two tomoe

techniques yet. Or maybe, forget it. Just keep trying to copy me!”

The two continued to copy each other’s technique. Itachi seemed to have trouble copying techniques with more than 30

hand seals. Although, Kakashi thought he was actually doing very good.

For the next few months, Kakashi and Itachi became really good friends. And by a couple of months, Itachi also gained a

“Really? What is it?”

Kakashi stood in awe. He could not believe that Itachi mastered his own jutsu in a matter of days.

“What a shame. Kurenai and you seemed like a good couple.”

After an hour of useless searching, Itachi met up with Kakashi and some other ANBU members on the rendezvous spot.

“Same.”

“Zero.”

“I see. It seems that he is better than we thought. I cannot believe this. We have searched everywhere. I will have to go back

to the village and report what happened. Everyone else should still be searching for him. I will make four pairs, alright?”

“Hai, Kakashi-sama.”

“I will pair you so that you can work extremely well together when you reach the enemy. But, remember: know your limits.

The moment you see the enemy, call for back-up. I will try to get back as fast as possible. So the pairs will be as follows:

Itachi and Hariki, Yoralo and Halim, Lamat and Kureno ,and Kashiko and Shitae. Itachi, with Hariki’s blinding light

techniques, you can trap0..” Kakashi continued on for another minute. Soon enough, the teams were dismissed and the

real mission started.

Itachi and Hariki covered the southern side of the forest. They first planned out everything in a deep place underground.

Afterwards, the pair continued on with their mission, going around and sometimes just stopping on a place to rest.

A sudden chill ran through the spine of Hariki. He opened his eyes wide and felt everything around him. There was a certain

presence. He couldn’t pin-point the location. He slowly reached for the blade strapped on his back; he quietly prayed that

Itachi would come back soon.

In a sudden breeze of the wind, a hand was placed on the ANBU’s neck. Hariki moaned a little, surprised.

“Hmph. Another one,” said the man choking the skinny ANBU member.

Hariki struggled hard and tried to grasp the man’s hand. His lungs was screaming in pain. “Flick,“ he couged. “er,” he

mumbled agonizingly.

A sudden flash of light went straight to the criminal’s eyes. He immediately let go of Hariki and jumped back. He covered his

eyes firmly and shrieked deafeningly. “You0bastard,”

Hariki performed three hand seals: Tora, U, Tatsu, then bit his thumb. “Hikari: Light Deviant!” A small light emerged from the

ground and slowly rose up. As the light went up, it formed a figure shaped like a human. In a matter of seconds, there was a

blinding and shining figure made out of yellow light. He didn’t have any eyes or face. He was just a figure. Hariki walked to

the figure and placed his left palm on it’s back and used his right hand to perform a seal. He then jumped back. Then, he

stayed at a certain stance and stood in front of Hariki. “Send a bird or a sign. We need to get back-up, now.”

The figure nodded it’s head for a moment. He then raised up his hand and conjured a bird. The bird divided into three other

birds that flew away.

“Back-up, huh? They are all dead. It wasn’t that hard,” said the man, still covering one of his eyes. How many were there?

Hmm.. Let see, they were all in pairs.. It’s too bad that you’re alone.” he added.

‘Itachi must be alive! He said they were in pairs!’ hissed Hariki’s mind. “Don’t you dare underestimate me!” Hariki performed

the hand seal for Kage Bunshin. However, instead of him duplicating himself, the ‘light’ figure duplicated into three. “Light

Clone: Barrage !”

The three light figures charged at the opponent. One leaped high, the other went to the right, the last one on the left. One

tried to punch the criminal but got easily thrown away.

“Kaiten!” the man performed the Hyuuga clan’s defensive move. The clones were instantly shoved away. One dissolved into

a thin liquid and flowed through the ground. It ended up going back to one of the clones. “I can see through your techniques

quite well,”

“Let us just see about that.” Another light figure lunged at the man, although this time, the man used his own palm to disable

it. He shoved his palm on the light figure’s chest. The figure exploded. Yellow light shone on the felon’s face.

“Ahh, Damn it,” he barked, trying to regain his vision. During this time, Hariki charged at the Hyuuga. On the other side of the

battle-field, comes the original figure he summoned, also charging at the opponent. Hariki grabbed his blade, and at the

same time, his summoned creature also created a blade, a golden and shining sword. Hariki slashed at the criminal, hitting

him in the arm. His light creature also tried to stab the offender. However, a hand held the blade in a sudden moment. The

light figure was then threw away. He was gone.

‘Damn it! There are two of them now; there is only one of me. I must escape, but I also must do my mission.’ he thought.

Hariki was exhausted. Using his technique halved his chakra. His technique works like the Kage Bunshin no jutsu. However,

everything Hariki thinks or does gets imitated by the summoned figure. The creature also has the abilities to perform jutsus,

but it uses Hariki’s chakra. The creature, in a way, is like his own shadow. ‘I will have to do it; I have no choice0 ’ he

meditated.

The other criminal scoffed loudly, “You left one, you know, Hiahzi.” he grabbed a kunai and put himself into a defensive

stance. Afterwards, he looked back to Hiahzi, the one criminal Hariki was fighting. “This one was very interesting, he had

weird, weird eyes. One like yours, the other, well, looks like it’s the devil’s.”

Hariki opened his eyes wide. He was stunned.

“Where is he? Did you take care of him?”

“No. He is right here. I decided that I wanted to show Orochimaru. Heh. He will like this gift.” The figure placed his left hand

on the ground. In a quick minute, Itachi appeared, tied on a log.

“Itachi! Itachi!” Hariki screamed. Itachi did not react. He was as still as ice. “What did you do to him!?”

“Nothing, besides the fact I cast upon a heavy genjutsu on him.” he grinned.

A smile went upon Hariki’s face. ‘So he is playing it, huh.’ he thought. ‘Amazing work, Itachi.’

Hiahzi walked to the tied Itachi. “I am familiar with his face-”

The tied Itachi suddenly exploded into a thousand kunais. The knives went to Hiahzi who quickly released chakra off of his

body to deflect the blades. “Explosive Clone: Successful,” Itachi’s voice said.

“Shit,” the friend of Hiahzi said. He suddenly popped out behind Hariki. “Now die!” His kunai was about to slash Hariki’s

neck, and in the nick of time, another blade clashed with his kunai. It was Itachi.

“Don’t you dare hurt my comrade.” his voice, deep, said.

“Itachi,” Hariki muttered.

“Go ahead and rest. Sorry, I was late.”

“No, I will help you.” Hariki smiled with glee. The presence of Itachi gave him confidence.

“But how?” the figure said. “My genjutsu...”

“Fool! He has the Sharingan!” Hiahzi said. Hiahzi charged at Hariki. “Eight Trigrams: Sixty Four Palms!”

“Ninja Art: Defensive Light Destruction!” A wave of blinding light appeared and swept the whole battle field. It formed a round

wall in front of Hariki. Hiahzi still charged, only with his eyes closed.

“Two Strikes,” he hit the wall of light; it only exploded. Hiahzi was blown away by the blast. He fell down the ground.

“The moment you hit that wall, it was over.” Hariki quickly performed five hand seals. “Ninja Art: Light Devastation,” Hariki

placed one hand on the wall of light. He then opened up his palms and hit the wall violently; at the same time, a chunk of

light flew straight to the enemy. Hariki did this again with his other hand, another piece flew again. He kept doing this, kicking

and punching, and more chunks of light flew to Hiahzi’s direction.

“Your fighting style is really not fit for me.” Hiahzi laughed. He activated his Byakugan and kept dodging every piece of light.

“Ninja Art: Light Shurikens Barrage!” Instead of punching and kicking the wall, he placed both of his hands on the wall. “HAI,”

he yelled. Bright Shurikens came out of the wall and flew to Hiahzi.

“KAITEN!” The shurikens fell down the ground, useless. “What a loser,”

A hand was suddenly on Hiahzi’s neck. “It’s my turn to choke,” a bright light figure said.

“You again,” Hiahzi struggled.

“Ninja Art: Light Abyss! Final Judgement!” Hariki placed his hands together. His light ’clone’ suddenly exploded into a million

blinding shards. The whole battle field was engulfed in light.

“Hiahzi!” his partner said. He ran to the direction of his friend.

“I am your enemy.” Itachi darted in front of him.

“It is time to finish this! Raiton: Lightning Breath!” The guy opened his mouth and spewed out a blue gas. The gas suddenly

sparked, then in a second, it was lightning bolts. He then swallowed them and then spewed it out again, this time, as

needles. It contained such high voltage that Itachi could hear crackling.

“Doton: Earth Wall!” Itachi did as a light defense, even knowing that earth is weak against lightning.

“How inconvenient,” the figure said. “Now die,” He grabbed a kunai and charged for Itachi.

“Doton: Earth Flow River!” Itachi used this technique taught to him by the Third. He then heard a very high pitched scream.

“Byakugan,” He saw Hariki on the ground. “NO! Hariki!”

“How did you escape my technique?” Hariki asked painfully.

“During the last minute, I released chakra from my body, therefore getting released from your clone. Also, the moment you

made your clone explode, I used Kaiten to protect my self from the blast. I am from the Main Family of the Hyuuga Clan; I

am also a high-level Jounin. Did you really think your petty techniques will work on me? Now, time to finish this,”

“Katon: Mythical Fireball Technique!” fireballs soared to Hiahzi. Itachi then quickly went in front of Hariki. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, thanks for saving me. No problem. You have to rest now; you have stalled them long enough. I will take care of this.

Don’t worry, I already called for back-up.”

“As you wish, Captain.”

“Ninja Art: Complete Ally Protection: Entry Seal!” A translucent dome surfaced from the ground. It protected Hariki. “Take

care,”

“Hiahzi, I am your opponent now.” He performed a defensive stance. “Byakugan,”

“Fool, just like my partner here. I will be more than glad to bring you to Orochimaru. He will be very interested in your eyes0

and your powers0”

“Let us just see about that,”

Itachi and Hiahzi were fighting for straight four hours. Both were only using Hyuuga-Clan taijutsu. Itachi, using his

Sharingan, copied every jab, punch that Hiahzi did. So both were countering each moves.

“Is that all you can do? Copy me? Copy enemies? But Hizashi has taught you well, however, he is from the branch family;

so he didn’t know everything0” Hiahzi put himself on a weird posture.

“Eight-Trigrams: Secret Main Branch Technique: Barrage of the Gates: Death Gate! Seal!” Hiahzi charged at Itachi. His

hands were half-closed; his palm facing the young ANBU.

“Katon: Grand Missile Technique!” a blast of fire was sent to Hiahzi. He quickly put his hand in front of him and pressed the

air. The fire went out in an instant.

“Wow, I thought you new better.”

Itachi ran behind a tree. ‘This technique0 it concerns the Death Gate. If I am hit with this0 I might or I will die..’ he thought.

“There is only one way.”

“You think you can hide!? My Byakugan can easily see you.” Hiahzi said as he saw Itachi’s outline. “Too slow,” he jabbed his

hand a million times to Itachi’s chest. He was extremely powerful. So much chakra were coming out of his hands, delivering

his final blow, he jabbed Itachi’s head. Itachi was immediately sent a mile away; hitting all the trees on the way. The trees

broke, and he was on a tree, his back on it. All of a sudden, his body turned into a puff of clouds. ‘Poof’ it said.

“IMPOSSIBLE! A CLONE! HOW COULD HE HAVE?”

“I did it on your blind spot. I am a Hyuuga, too, after all.” Itachi performed the Kage Bunshin hand seals. He knew that this

technique was going to divide his chakra. “Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!” Three clones appeared. They all stood beside the real

Itachi. He performed some more hand seals. “Time to show you some of my OWN moves.”

Hiahzi was exhausted. He tried to hide it but it was very apparent. His feet were numb. The technique he did required using

his own gates, too.

“It’s still unfinished since I only know four now, but0 Elemental Destruction!”

The three clones, with Itachi, did one hand seal. “Katon: Giant Grand Dragon Fireball Jutsu!” they all yelled. Four huge

dragons made of fire encircled and targeted Hiahzi.

“Shit,” he said. He quickly jumped back, and back, and back. When he was about ten meters from the fire, he paused and

prepared himself for defense until he heard this:

“Doton: Earth Eternal Abyss Cliff!” The ground he was standing on suddenly collapse. He fell into it. He stood up and he

looked up. A clone had both palms on the ground. He grinned. Hiahzi was trapped. The cliff was too high. In able to escape

this cliff means to get out and jump extremely fast. The top of the rock was very high. Plus, it was very steep, making it hard

to climb on. Hiahzi’s body was very tired.

“Suiton: Water Pressure Collision Technique!” another clone yelled. He spit out a gargantuan ball of water. It targeted Hiahzi

who quickly dove for the other side. He was lying on the ground. He was wet, too.

“Raiton: Electromagnetic Murder!” the last clone said. He sent out jolts of lightning and electrocuted Hiahzi. The clone who

performed the earth technique lifted his palms and the ground started to shake. Rocks fell to the abyss, burying Hiahzi

forever.

“Thanks, clones.” Itachi was extremely tired. That technique started to take the toll on him. He went back to Hariki who was

smiling inside the dome. He released the technique and started to sit down. “You don’t mind me sitting down for a second do

you?

“That technique was amazing.”

“Thanks. How are y-” Hariki unexpectedly spitted blood out. He was stabbed in the neck. “Hariki!”

“Die,”

“I thought you ran away,” Itachi said. “My Byakugan couldn’t sense you at all.

“That’s for me to know.” He kicked Itachi in the shin. Itachi could not do anything. The left side of his face was on th

He was also bleeding. He was face-to-face with Hariki, who was also lying down the ground.

“Itachi,” he said, spitting more blood, “This is it for me.. Forgive me.. It is my fault.”

“NO! Don’t you dare talk like that,” Itachi said while crying

crimson. He touched his face and saw that he was crying blood. Itachi’s Sharingan started to spin amazingly fast. The three

tomoes started to connect with each other. Itachi, feeling the changes, l

pupils started to form a perfect Shuriken.

“Mangekyou Sharingan,”

The murderer stood still. In a quick second, he felt a part of his arm getting sliced. It was as if a kunai or a shuriken has

“No.. it is useless.” Hariki’s body burned into ashes.

“The seal0 an ANBU must be gone.. To protect the secrets of the village..” Kakashi bent down and closed his eyes.

“He is still alive, Itachi, is0” an ANBU said. “Look at his position. His hands,”

“Covering his Sharingan?” Asked Kakashi curiously. “Could it be?” He went to Itachi and removed his hand. He saw that his

Sharingan formed a shuriken. “Hariki0so0it’s true0”

Itachi opened his eyes slowly. His body was laid down. He felt some pain in his back. But nothing was compared to the

throbbing pain in his right eye. As he opened his eyes, everything he can see from his right eye were blurred. ‘Am I blind?’

he thought. ‘Ouch. My Sharingans hurts like a little-’

“Well, you are awake now, eh?”

“Yeah,” he softly said, carefully looking to his right side.”

Kakashi walked slowly to his bed. “I am sorry I came in late.”

“HARIKI? Oh no0”

Kakashi slowly frowned and shook his head.

“Damn them! Damn that Orochimaru!”

The door suddenly opened. The Hyuuga Elder, escorted by Hizashi, Itachi’s old teacher, and some other Hyuuga clan

member.

“You failed your mission! You pathetic shino-”

“That is uncalled for,” interrupted Hizashi, secretly happy to see his old student.

“You better shut your trap, Hizashi! You are from the branch! You have no say in this matter!”

Itachi tried to sit up but he couldn’t. His body was very tired.

“He killed both of the enemies. Your secrets are safe.” said Kakashi.

“How do you know that! The scrolls were with that traitor. All he did, according to the report, is kill him underground. That

must mean it is still underground! Someone from Orochimaru! He can make another freak or monster like you, Itachi, with

those scrolls!” The Elder held his cane tightly and suddenly swung it at Itachi.

In a flash, the Third Hokage had his hand on his cane. “Don’t you dare,”

“Hokage-sama!” muttered Kakashi.

Itachi and Hizashi looked at each other and grinned.

“Even though he failed his mission, he killed your traitor. And don’t you worry about those scrolls. I just got a report that they

already recovered it. They also got rid of the Hyuuga’s body. Now your bloodline is safe. Now if you don’t mind, leave now.”

The Hyuuga Elder scoffed and promptly left.

“Itachi, you have done good. But you, unfortunately failed your mission.”

“I know. I should just quit. Pull me out of ANBU.”

“NO. Do not surrender. No matter how good a shinobi is, he can be defeated.”

“I know. I am sorry I have failed. I must train ha

“You know, I heard that you used your ultimate jutsu0”

“Elemental Destruction? It’s not complete yet0 one day0 I will master it!”

“Mastering all the elements? That’s impossible.” added Kakashi.

“We’ll see,”

“No. Not that. You have awakened your Mangekyou Sharingan.”

Itachi looked up in an instant. “It was a mistake. I shouldn’t have used it. It’s useless! It hurts me!”

“That was Hariki’s sacrifice and gift to you. If you don’t ever want to use it0 then don’t. Let his death go to waste.”

‘His Death0’ echoed in Itachi’s ears.

Kakashi and Sarutobi left the room. Itachi felt some more pain in his eye. He slowly closed his eyes and went into a deep

sleep.

of them acted rashly and tried to kill Orochimaru. Orochimaru was in bad shape and they reported that he just left, saying

that you are nothing but a failure of a lab rat. Itachi then tried to follow Orochimaru but ended up in a failure. Hinashi, on the

other hand, brought you back here. And there it all started. I didn’t know that you were here until after Itachi did his mission.”

Sarutobi paused and walked to the window. He still had one hand doing a hand seal for the sealing jutsu he used. He closed

his eyes and took a deep breath.

“What mission? Sarutobi-sensei, tell me!”

“His mission, but take note, you cannot tell this to anyone. There are only very, very, very few people who know this. His

mission-was to murder his own clan!”

Itachi’s eyes glared wide open. His hand shook slowly. His Sharingan started to spin wildly. “IMPOSSIBLE! YOU MADE HIM

KILL ALL HIS LOVED ONES!”

“I didn’t want it. I had no choice. The Uchiha clan was forming a rebellion. The council thought that it would be-”

“It was your decision! YOUR FUCKING DECISION! YOU HAD THE FINAL WORD!” Itachi felt what was happening to his

Sharingan. He knew this feeling. He covered it up. However, there was another anger0another feeling inside of him. He

looked at his hands and he saw that from his arm to his hand, it was slowly transforming to wooden spikes. Wood, snake-

like, targeted the Hokage.

The Hokage dodged it in time, but he lost his hand seal. Therefore, releasing his sealing jutsu. More wooden spikes came

out of Itachi’s hands. The snake-like shaped Mokuton targeted the Third. “SARUTOBI! HELP ME! I can’t control myself!”

Itachi’s mouth opened. He felt immense pain on his back. It turns out that wooden spikes were coming out of his back. It

looked like he was a tailed-bijuu. The wood spread out everywhere. There were a meter long and a foot thick. There were

about eleven of them-all going into different directions. The Third dodges about five of them. One spike went crashing into

the hospital wall. It kept pushing that it created some kind of fissure. The wall broke, and the spikes grew longer. Attacking

everywhere, destroying everything in its path. Kakashi, with a surprising feeling, jumped back and pulled out his kunais. He

started to try and cut the Mokuton. He failed in this task. He then ran to the Hokage.

“Hokage-sama! What is happening!?” Kakashi looked at Itachi. His eyes were closed. The view was shocking. Itachi looked

like a tailed-beast.

“Call the ANBU, Kakashi. I will handle things here. Oh yeah, be sure to call the Sealing Squad of the ANBU.”

“Anything else, Hokage-sama?” Kakashi uttered while evading a spike.

“Yes, alert the hospital. Evacuate all patients! I almost forgot, declare to the ANBU that this is a A-Rank Mission! Also clear

the parameters!”

“A-RANK?” Kakashi asked, surprised.

“YES, NOW GO!”

Itachi screamed loudly. In a moment, more spikes busted from his back.

“Shit, this is bad! Kakashi, hurry!” The Hokage bit his thumb and formed hand seals. He then placed his left hand on the

ground. “Summoning Jutsu: Come forth God-King Monkey, Enma!”

A cloud of smoke appeared. When the smoke slowly subsided, a monkey, almost looking human, stood. “Sarutobi, what do

you need?” He moved his head and looked around. His white hair and his tail moved along with him, and he carried many

battle scars. Proving that the Third and him had suffered turbulent times.

“Help me stop him.” Pointing at Itachi.

“What is he? Mokuton? The First’s? Then just kill him!”

“NO! Out of the question.”

“Fine,” Enma transformed into a black pole that is as hard as diamonds. The Third held it and used it to cut the wooden

spikes that were spread out everywhere. The Third was having success with cutting all of them, until more and more came

out from Itachi.

The hospital room was a mess. More and more spikes were coming out, reaching other people’s room. In one scene, a kid

was crying since he was wrapped around by wood.

The kid suddenly stopped crying. He was set free. The ANBU had arrived!

“Oh my, Hokage-sama! There’s more now.” said Kakashi.

“Yes, now bring the Sealing Squad here!”

A group of five cloaked ANBU approached the Third. The Sealing Squad was made out of members from the Tensho clan.

They specialized in sealing techniques, and they mastered secrets of sealing that Hokages didn’t even know. However,

there are only a few more Tenshos. Most of them have been kidnapped or assassinated for their bloodline ability.

“Senju’s bloodline?” asked one of them.

“Indeed. Do what you have to do.”

“We will need back-up. We cannot easily approach that kid.”

“I understand. Kakashi and I will back you five up while the other ANBUs save the patients.”

“Hai, Hokage-sama!”

The Hokage pulled his cloak up. He revealed his battle-suit. He held Enma and charged. “Let’s go, Kakashi!”

Kakashi ran with his sword, usually brought during ANBU missions, and started cutting wood. The Sealing Squad followed.

“Just let us be at least three feet from him. That will be good enough.” alleged a member of the Sealing Squad.

About three feet from Itachi, the Third Hokage ordered Enma. “Now, Enma!”

From the black pole, a hand extended. This hand held Itachi by his neck. The Sealing Squad took this chance. One of them

threw to tags to Itachi. One was aimed to Itachi’s head and the other on his chest.

“Method Sealing: Movement, Seal!”

Another ANBU threw another paper tag on Itachi. “Method Sealing: Chakra, Seal!”

The remaining ANBU threw three tags altogether. Then, all of the Sealing Squad bit their thumbs and used it to write a

character on their hands. Afterwards, they held each other’s hand. Then, at the same time, they yelled, “Method Sealing:

Instant Bloodline, Seal!”

All the tags that were on Itachi glew red. Red chakra emitted from them. Itachi yelled in pain. The wooden spikes from his

back and his hands started to stop growing. After a minute, they became nothing but dust. Itachi’s eyes went back to norma

and he collapsed on his bed.

“Kakashi, is everyone alright?”

“Yes, fortunately, only a few were hurt.”

“Is there any way you can extend the seal?”

“There is a way. He must be quarantined in our place. There, we will continuously give him new tags. Eventually, the tags

will permanently work and all his bloodline skills will be gone.

“No, we cannot do that. There must be another way,”

“If you want, we can hold and control him for a week, so you can find another solution. That is only what we can do for

temporary, Lord Hokage.”

“Okay. Thank you. That is good but, what exactly happened to him?”

“Yes, Hokage-sama! The students that have been stolen are 0.”

“Shit, I see. I will rush there now. Be sure to tell the ANBU to follow me.”

The Hokage ran outside the door. He was in such distress. He didn’t know why someone would kidnap students. While he

charged outside his office, Ako bumped into him.

“Hokage-sama, Itachi is now fully under control. You can now talk to him for an hour. After that, he must be fully sealed for at

least one day. And after two days, the seal will have the chance to be permanent.”

“How big is this chance?”

“About two over three, sir.”

“Damn. I must go tend to the Academy. But Itachi-”

“I know, sir.”

“Go ahead, I will go to the Academy and finish things over there. Stand-by.”

“An hour, sir!”

“I know what I am doing, Ako! Stand-by. I can handle this.”

“Hokage, I am here.” butted Gai.

“Good. Let’s go.”

The Third Hokage arrived in the Academy. The kids were running amock. Gai went to a small kid and asked him. The kid

told him that this monster arrived in their classroom and got two of his best friends. The kid was very strange. He seemed to

be scared, yet glad at the same time.

“It’s a mere genjutsu.”

“Are you sure, Hokage-sama?” Gai asked.

“Yes. It is very powerful..very0powerful. Iruka or any of the ANBU didn’t even detect it..”

“What do we do now?”

“Hokage Style: Eternal Reflection, Genjutsu, RELEASE!”

The whole academy got quiet. Everything went back to normal. There were no kids crying or anything.

“They are trying to stall me, for Itachi, but why?” The Third whispered to himself.

“Huh? Do you need anything, Hokage-sama?”

“No, I must go!” In a puff of smoke, the Hokage was gone.

“Half-an hour.”

Itachi kept it with him. Afterwards, he looked up and stretched. "Let's train, shall we not?"

Chapter 2: A Weird Feeling Ako growled loudly, “HAI!”. She charged at Itachi with three roses on her hand. One was white, one was red, and the other, yellow. She bit a petal from each. “Genjutsu: Vision, SEAL!” Itachi scoffed softly. ‘Genjutsu?’ He thought. “You know better,” Itachi something prickled in his neck. He looked back and saw nothing. After a second, Itachi fell to the ground. “Haha. You lose this round0 That’s 12-13, now.
