I was on my way back to Konaha, alone, a mere week later. I’d truly enjoyed my stay at Suna, but I missed my friends at home. I was a little more than halfway home when I stopped. A new scent had hit me and I wasn’t sure I wanted to move any further. A sharp pain erupted in my left wing and it gave out. I started to fall, screaming, trying to get my wing to respond, twitch, anything. I was snatched from the air in a way that left me breathless. I tried to scream again and we landed. I fought the person who’d caught me, kicking and squirming and fighting until he dropped me on the sand. I glared up, settled on my hands and knees, to see someone that widened my eyes.
“S-Sasuke?” But, no, it wasn’t Sasuke. He had the same ink-black eyes and midnight hair, but it wasn’t him. His hair was longer, too long, pulled into a ponytail. There were two lines running down his face. He wore a black and red cloak with a high collar that hid his mouth.
“I am not Sasuke,” he said in a low, smooth voice.
“She looks like she’s going to run. Let’s kill her before she does that,” a rough, slithery voice said behind me. I whipped my head around to see a blue man wearing the same cloak with a sword thrown over his shoulder.
I leapt to my feet and reached back to touch my wings. They were gone. “Wh-what?”
“I’ve hit your wings with a serum that will make them unable to come back out for three days. Don’t bother trying to use them again.” The black-haired man looked over at the blue one. “No, Kisame. We are not here to kill her.”
“Why are we here, Itachi? The Akatsuki doesn’t know about this wretch. Why do we care?”
“Silence,” he said softly, turning back to me. “You’re an obstacle I won’t allow to stand in my way.”
I backed away, pulling a kunai out for each hand. “I don’t know what you want, but I know who you are! You’re Sasuke’s brother!”
“Yes, I am.”
“What do you want?”
“You’re holding my brother back. I won’t allow that.”
“What are you talking about?!”
“He can’t get stronger with you around.”
“He’s ten times stronger than he was before!” Even more than that.
“I am not talking about in power. With you around, his Sharingan will never reach its peek. In order for him to strengthen it with you around, he would have to kill you. I know my brother wouldn’t be capable of something such as that.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Even if he was, he would never forgive himself for it. It would probably take him down with you.”
“Come on, Itachi, this girl would be a good addition to the Akatsuki’s entertainment lounge,” the other one said.
“No. We are not going to harm her.” His eyes met mine. “I’m not here to hurt you, Starlight, and I would prefer not to. Put your toys away.”
I did, straightening up. “What are you here for?”
“I’m here to get you away from my brother. I can’t have you in the way. He won’t kill you.”
“How would killing me-”
“He must fully activate his Sharingan, which means activating the Mangekyo. In order for him to do that, he would have to kill his closest friend. He won’t be able to kill you. So I’m going to take away the most precious thing in his life so that he can grow closer to someone else. Or perhaps the tearing of the bond he has with you will be enough.”
I moved back to my fighting crouch. “I’m not going anywhere with you.”
“That’s what you think.”
“Itachi, this girl, let’s kill her. Come on. Cut her legs off so she can’t run. Something.”
“Kisame, I said no. No harm will come to the girl.” He looked back. “But we do have to go. My brother is coming.” He moved. It was a blur and before I could react, I was bleeding. Blood dripped down my cheek in steady rivers, dripping into the sand. His eyes met mine and I could feel a static at the back of my head. It strengthened until it was overwhelmingly loud, pulling at me, sucking me in until there was no more.
I don’t know how long it was until I was able to pull free. I could hear them both talking, about me. “Let’s kill her. What use is she alive?”
“I have done what was needed. I cut the bond between her and my brother. He will see the blood and think she’s dead. The cutting of the bond between them may be enough.” He was silent for a minute or two. “I almost wish I was there to see if it is or not.”
“I don’t understand why we don’t just kill her for real.”
“Kisame, if we killed her, there would be many repercusions to that action when the Akatsuki come to find who she is. She would make a grand addition to us.”
“She looks like a little twerp to me.”
“She is young, that much is true, but she is a very unique child.”
Silence. For awhile. Kisame broke it. “This girl . . . is she the one that Orrochimaru seeks? The child of the Hyuuga bastard that once worked for him?”
“Yes.”
My body twitched. So my father had been a Hyuuga.
“Ah, you’re up.”
I opened my eyes. “Where am I?”
“Do not fear for your safety. As I said before, no harm will come to you.”
I glared at him. “Then why did you do all this?”
“My brother will need his strength,” was all he said.
“I don’t understand! Why would you do this to your little brother?!”
His eyes met mine and I dropped my eyes, remembered the danger of meeting his eyes head-on. “Why don’t you use that special talent of yours to search through my mind?”
“I can’t. It’s blocked off from me.”
“I see. So not even you can venture into my mind.” He looked away. “I will make a trade with you, Starlight.”
I looked up at him, eyes wide. “What trade? What could possibly be worth leaving my friends behind?”
“I may have news of your sister.”
I straightened up involuntarily and my eyes unfocused, staring at something in my past. Silverstar, Sunset. A chill went down my spine. “Tell me.”
“Not unless you make an oath not to come near my brother until I have come to tell you it is safe.”
I twitched. “I-I can’t. Why-”
“Do you want your sister to die, then?”
My eyes closed. “Why?”
“I need my brother to become as strong as he can. I left clues behind suggesting it was I that killed you. I need him to work hard to avenge both our family and you. I need his eyes to awaken fully.”
“Why?”
“You do not know much about me, Starlight, and I do not expect you to trust me. But I do have my brother’s best interest at heart.”
“How?!”
“I cannot tell you that. I can only say that my brother may come into harm’s way and that he needs to be as strong as he can possibly get.” He looked over at me again. “I was supposed to kill my brother when I killed our Clan, but I could not bring myself to do so. You see, Sasuke is the only one that survived not because I . . . wanted him to hate me. . . . Sasuke is the only survivor because I did not have it in me to slaughter him. Because I allowed him to live, he may come to harm from the very people that asked me to kill the Uchiha Clan. If he is not strong enough, he will die. I will do all in my power to make sure that does not come to happen. That includes keeping you from him so that his Mangekyo Sharingan can mature. So when I allowed him to survive, I told him the one thing I could. Live to hate me, get stronger with that hatred of me and use it to survive. And kill me.”
“That’s retarded! Why don’t you just tell him the truth?!”
“I can’t. And nor can you. You are to keep all this a secret. I do not wish to harm you, but I will if it means keeping my secrets.”
“Why tell me, then?”
“Because . . . I think I want him to know the truth . . . but only after I have died.”
“You want him to kill you.”
“I am not proud of killing my family, Starlight. I never intended to live much beyond that. I feel my life force already beginning to weaken. If he doesn’t kill me, I will die of something else. When I do, I think I want you to tell him.”
“How long do you think you have?”
“Two years, I believe, though I am not sure.”
“If I were to let him kill you without him knowing the truth, he would hate me just as much as he hates you.”
He sighed. “Yes, that may be true. Tell him, then, if you see him before I die, tell him nothing about what I’ve told you. But tell him to think carefully about his actions. You can tell him to ask me about my past actions. I won’t tell him, but you can tell him to ask me. If he asks you to tell him, say that you cannot because I have you under Oath.” His eyes changed slightly. “Which you will be under.”
“I can’t not tell him.”
“You can if your life depends on it. I don’t think he would let you tell him, then.”
“M-my life?”
“I will mark you with a seal. One that allows you to hint that he shouldn’t kill me, but only to a certain degree. You can tell him about the seal. I’ll put it somewhere he can see it, in the shape of something he’ll recognize. But if you were to try to tell him further than what I am going to allow, then you will die before you can tell him.”
“So I won’t be able to tell him anything, basically.”
“And the seal will keep you from seeing him until I’ve allowed it. It’ll kill you if you disobey.”
“W-what about . . . Gaara?”
“You will not have time to see him, either.”
“Time?”
“No. You’ll be searching for your sister. In return for all this, Star, I’m going to help you find her. I will look for clues as to where she is and I’ll tell you.”
“I have two sisters.”
“Two? Oh, you mean your twins. I was talking about the one who betrayed your family.”
“W-what? None of my sisters-”
“The oldest one. She is the one who ran to Orrochimaru and gave away the whereabouts of your father and the information about you.”
“K-Kartwer did it? It was her that-” I felt my rage rise. “I’ll kill her.”
“I thought you would have that reaction. As for your twins, yes, I suppose I can help you find them, as well. I see nothing wrong with that. I suggest, Star, you dedicate yourself to your training. Make yourself as strong as you can so that you may have your revenge. Both on your sister, and the one who killed your parents.”
“Orrochimaru.”
“Yes. He is strong. You will need the training.”
I nodded, eyes narrowing. “I’ll get stronger.”
“Now, as I said, I will put a seal on you. It’ll dissolve after I die, but it will be strong until then.”
“I won’t be able to see him-”
“Or anyone else. Anyone that could tell him you’re alive.”
“Or anyone else until when?”
“Until I’ve decided you can.”
“How will I know?”
“I’ll tell you.”
“Nobody, not even Hinata? Or Kiba? Even if I swear them to secrecy?”
“Nobody.”
I looked down. “But they’re my only friends.”
“You have three choices. I can give you the seal and let you go your own way, while periodically stopping by to tell you what I’ve learnt of all three of your sisters’ whereabouts. Or I can make sure you won’t interfere in my brother’s life any more by giving you over to Orrochimaru.” His eyes narrowed. “Or I can kill you. Those are your choices.”
“But Hinata . . . she needs me.”
“She’ll get along just fine without you. Make your choice.”
“Ooh, let’s kill her. She’s not going to listen anyway!”
“Kisame, there will no harm that will come to her.”
He looked saddened by that. “Fine.”
“Fine,” I said at the same time, quietly. “I’ll do the seal.”
“I thought you’d agree. Now, don’t try to fight me. . . .” He met my eyes. “Don’t look away.”
And once again, I started to feel the static. I didn’t fight it. I let it consume my mind. I felt myself falling into a deep hole, felt that I couldn’t stop the fall. I started to panic and a numbness rushed over me, a paralysis. After that, everything went blank and I didn’t fight. I came to a few minutes later with a burning feeling on the crook of my shoulder. I reached up to touch it, wincing. I pulled the shirt down just enough to let cool air touch it and I strained to look at it. I couldn’t. “What does it look like?”
“A crow.”
I touched it, feeling its warmth. “What will it do to me?”
“If my brother comes near you, it’ll heat up like fire. If he sees you, you’ll have sixty seconds to disappear. After that, you’re dead.”
“Other than that?”
“It’ll keep you from doing much more than hinting to him what I’ve done and it won’t let you near Konaha or Suna or any of your friends. Anyone that’ll recognize you besides your sisters. If, however, you come near your twins, it’ll start to glow. If you come near Orrochimaru or your older sister, it’ll turn ice cold.”
“So it’ll help me locate my sisters?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, I can live with that.” I sighed. “At the most, two years, right?”
“Yes.”
“Fine.” I sighed again. “Okay. I can do that. As long as you keep your end up or I swear I will do everything in my power to have this thing removed or I’ll die trying. I’ll make sure that he knows what you did.”
“I’ll keep my end up.”
I stood. “I’ll be going now, I guess.”
“Not yet. Your sister, I believe the one named Sunset, is east of here. Where, exactly, I don’t know. From what I’ve gathered, she moves around a lot. I don’t know how to help you find her any better than that right now.”
I nodded. “Thank you. I’ll . . . I’ll tell Sasuke everything once you’re gone.”
“That’s more than I can ask for. Now go. Don’t go near him or anyone who will tell him you’re alive and you’ll be fine.”
“Bye.” And I stepped away, hand to the seal, and into a new chapter of my life.
