*Two weeks before the capture of Gaara*
I walked through the dark halls of Akatsuki hideout, the brat silently followed me. After finishing our mission, we finally returned. He didn't say a word since then. Since that day.
We went to the living room – Hidan, Kakuzu and Zetsu were here. They glanced at us, then returned to what they were doing. Only the silver haired priest kept staring at us stupidly.
'Where the fuck is Ayumi?'
I didn't say anything. This whole situation made me feel irrirated.
'Zetsu, bring here the others.'
The plant man gazed at me, amused.
'You two look pretty gloomy. What's wrong?'
'Just call the others, damn it,' I repeated once more before taking a seat on the sofa, trying to calm myself down.
Zetsu murmured something before disappearing in the ground.
'What's all this fuss about?' Kisame muttered before coming to the room, looking quite displeased that someone disturbed him.
Itachi followed him quietly. I sighed again. All of the members were here. Well, almost all... At least there will be no need to repeat myself ten times.
Akatsuki members gathered around me and Deidara. Some of them were muttering curses under their noses while others were just silent, wondering what happened. I coughed a few times to get their attention.
'So where the fuck is Ayumi?!' Hidan yelled again and I shot him a glare.
He was just so annoying. Like always.
'Did something happen?' Kisame asked, looking more concerned now.
'Shut up, all of you, un!'
Everyone went silent and stared at Deidara who burst out so suddenly. He rarely sounds so upset. Even I was shocked.
'Danna, continue.'
I gave him a weird look before turning to the others.
'During our mission we were attacked by three ninjas. One of them was a part of Tsukiyomi clan, the one that Ayumi belonged to.'
I scanned Akatsuki faces in front of me. They just stared at us, dumbfounded.
'Ayumi was stabbed in the back. There was nothing I could do.'
The room went absolutely quiet.
'What...?' The shark man murmured before sending me a death glare. 'What do you mean there was nothing you could do? Why didn't you protect her?!'
'You weren't here, so shut up,' I snapped at him, feeling rage consume me.
I didn't want to feel guilt for what happened, I tried to shove it away. But it wasn't easy. If I have noticed that it was a clone... I grunted in annoyance.
'She can't be fucking dead!' Hidan yelled again before hitting a table next to the sofa. 'If only she was a fucking jashinist...!'
It fell down with a bump.
'Calm down, Hidan. There's nothing you can do now.'I watched as everyone glared at Zetsu for such words. He only let out a tired sigh. 'She was a good girl, though... What a shame.'
'I'm getting out of here,' Kakuzu grunted before leaving through the door.
No one stopped him. Everyone was lost in their own thoughts.
Unintentionally, I glanced at Itachi from the corner of my eye. Like I expected, he looked emotionless. He didn't even blink once when I announced Ayumi's death.
Deidara's P.O.V
That Itachi... I was fuming with spite for him. He didn't say a word! How can he be like that?!
'Uchiha...' I murmured quietly, but loud enough to hear me.
He gazed at me with his empty eyes, making me shake in anger. Sasori looked at me warningly, as if telling me to keep quiet, but I didn't care.
'She wanted us to tell you that she loves you, un.'
Other members shut up instantly, waiting for a reaction from Itachi. He stayed silent for a few moments before turning his back to us.
'I see,' he simply said before taking a step towards the door.
That's it. This is it.
'You never loved her, right, un?!'
Itachi stopped walking, but didn't turn his head.
'Shut up, brat,' Sasori ordered and grabbed my sleeve, but I pulled away.
That stupid Uchiha... Always thinking that he is better than everybody else. Always so cold and senseless. What an asshole!
'The one she was thinking before her death was you!' I screamed at him again, feeling no fear at all. I didn't care if I'm asking for a fight, I would be glad to kick his ass anyway. 'Do you even understand how much she loved you?! You're disg-'
'I told you to shut up!' Sasori spat at me angrily before wrapping his stupid chakra threads around me. 'If you say another word, I will kill you.'
I continued glaring daggers at Itachi. I truly hated him now. He never valued Ayumi-chan. He never understood her.
Moving my eyes to the floor, I took a few deep breaths. Suddenly all I could feel was despair. There was nothing I could do to bring her back. Absolutely nothing.
Uchiha just left the room, never glancing back. The room went quiet again. It would never be the same place again... Never.
Nothing could ever replace her.
Tobi's P.O.V
I gazed at the huge moon in the pitchy black sky, then turned my eyes downwards. I was sitting at the edge of the deep valley, a wide river and a dark forest below me. The night was cold. Not like I cared. It holds no meaning. This whole world holds no meaning... Without her.
Taking a handful of dirt from the ground, I squeezed it tightly. It leaked down my fingers. Just a filthy substance. Nothing more.
Yes, it was partly my fault, for letting her go with those two weaklings. How did I even believe they could protect her... No one can protect her, only me. She was supposed to be by my side, always. For the whole eternity.
I growled lowly. This is not the ending, I won't leave it like that. Everyone will pay, if that's the cost of her return. The future belongs only to me and her.
My eyes widened as I gazed at the moon once more. An owl hooted somewhere, searching for its prey.
I started chuckling quietly. It turned into a full laugh, echoing far away to the horizon.
Ayumi-chan... Ayumi-chan... I inhaled deeply, imagining that it was the scent of her skin. Her hair... Her body...
Does she think she can escape me in death? That's not going to work. I will find her, no matter what. I will pull her together piece by piece, if I need to do that.
'No one can stop me. You're mine, Ayumi-chan... I will bring you back.'
Itachi's P.O.V
I walked down the bank of the river which was prattling quietly, giving off a calming atmosphere. It looked like the water was silver – the moonlight it was reflecting made it all shiny and sparkling.
My eyes roamed this place against my will – they quickly found the place where me and Ayumi were once. She was playing with the water. She was smiling and calling my name.
I was stupid for not joining her. I would have been able to touch her just a bit more. To show her my true feelings.
The moon was so big and bright, I have never seen it like that before. The trees were not moving, as if they were frozen. It was so silent.
All my life... I keep doing these foolish mistakes. I kept hiding from myself and even when I met her, I still continued to act stupid. She appeared and vanished so suddenly... I wasn't even able to give her anything. Yet she gave so much to me.
I kneeled slightly, feeling the cold water hit my fingers. It felt somehow refreshing.
If only...
A few nightingales chirped in a tree. Their song was gentle and soft. The night sky looked beautiful.
I will never forget her. I will always crave for her.
'Until we meet again, Ayumi.'
The End.
