Chapter 12 | Forgotten

°Aneko's POV°

"Itachi-sensei?" My questioning voice rang around me.

He stares emotionless at me, however I trained extremely hard to read human's emotions.

"Why are you here?" I asked, I immediately saw the small happiness of seeing me however there is also a questioning look in his eyes.

"I was told that you joined The Hidden Leaf." Itachi-sensei said, the questioning look in his eyes grew.

"I'm simply looking for my father." I said, "Or least past documents of him."

The look he was sending me, it shot a wave of memories of my travels with him.

"And you never told me about Sasuke's incapability of speaking." I said, mimicking the look he gave me.

He held a tiny smile, sending another wave of memories.

"Uchiha Itachi." Younger me said, staring straight at the infamous Uchiha.

He turned around, according to my younger self's prediction, he had just completed the assassination of a Hidden Mist Elder.

He was on his way back, it was going to take at least two weeks to return to where he belong.

He didn't even bother replying to a child like me back then. He simply stared at me as a sign to continue.

"I want you to teach me genjutsu." Young me said.

Itachi stared curiously at me, 'She can't be more than eight, why does she care  about genjutsu.'

"I need to take on revenge for my clan. I need to avenge everyone that died, I need to kill him." Eight years old me said in a deadly tone, I clenched my small fist and my face became tight.

'She is eight, is this how Sasuke feels?' Itachi thought, "So this has nothing to do with me." He said coldly, turning around and began to walk away.

"I'll find your little brother."

Itachi's tracks immediately stopped, he turned around once again at me this time with a hint of surprise in his face.

"I'll find your little brother Uchiha Sasuke, and tell him everything." I said,

"He will fall into my trap, and turned against the Hidden Leaf. Becoming the exact opposite of what you want him to become." I finished, even if I was young I knew exactly how to manipulate people.

Itachi's eyes narrowed, "Why specifically genjutsu?"

"Both my taijutsu and ninjutsu I trained on my own but I heard that you are an expert on genjutsu, the exact thing I'm struggling with." I coldly said.

Itachi raised an eyebrow, before turning and began walking away. I stared at him, knowing that he rejected my offer.

"What is taking you so long?" Itachi-sensei said.

I dashed forward and we both started our short journey.

I slightly relaxed at the flashback, however still remained guarded.

"So why are you here, Itachi-sensei?" I asked, my hand was still on Zora as my eyes began to stare him down.

"To use the one offer I got from you." Itachi-sensei said. He looked straight st me and I knew exactly what he was talking about.

"Now that you have a good grip on genjutsu, what are you going to do now?" Itachi-sensei said.

"I'm going to take one offer of yours to complete as a thank you gift." I said with no hesitation.

'I don't want to owe him anything, and beside he is a wanted criminal. He will only cause trouble in the future, I'll complete the offer and cut him off.'

"I don't have anything I want you to do." Itachi said, I turned to look at him.

"Well then, I must continue my journey. Find me what you think up of something." I said, as I walked away from him.

I remember thinking him will come around, stating what he wants around a week.

Oh how I was wrong. I didn't see him after that, which was roughly four years ago.

"I was beginning to think you forgot." I said, smirking.

Itachi-sensei sighed, before speaking a few words.

"Protect Sasuke."

Right after that, I blinked and he disappeared in a flash of crows flying after.

I turned around and hid a smirk, "I was after planning on that, Itachi."

•-•

The next morning, I was sitting next to Kaka-sensei's resting body as I cleaned and sharpen Zora.

He should be waking up in a minute or two.

I was correct as usual, Kaka-sensei's visible eye fluttered open he stared at the ceiling for a moment before turning in my direction.

I gave him the blankest stare as he slowly pulled himself up.

"How long was I out for?" Kakashi asked, he looked around and his eye landed on his injured leg.

"21 hours, 32 minutes, and 47 seconds." I said, putting Zora down.

He sighed, Who on earth even bother to count that?

His thoughts were unguarded and I couldn't help but to smirked.

"Where is the rest of them and where exactly are we?" Kakashi asked.

"Those idiots should be running up here soon, and we are at Tazuna's house." I said, I activated my kekkei genkai when I heard the loud footsteps.

The door opened up in to reveal Naruto in the front, then Sakura and finally Sasuke.

"Kakashi-sensei! You are okay! Dattebayo!" Naruto yelled, I couldn't help but to rolled my eyes however no one saw me.

"Kakashi-sensei! How is your injury?!" Sakura exclaimed, her hands tightly held together as she placed them above her chest.

"About time." Uchiha said.

"Sorry for making you guys worry about me," Kaka-sensei said lamely, scratching the back of his head.

I stared interestedly at him, Why would he be sorry about something like that? Irrelevant.

Kaka-sensei continues to laugh gently as he was being shoved around with questions.

Whatever, it's not my problem.

Another flashback slammed into me, I sighed deeply as I looked around at the familiar setting.

"Ane-chan!"

"Kyo-sama?" Little me asked the silver hair young beauty.

Ah yes, Hideyoshi Kyoko. The daughter of the main branch and finally the prodigy of the Hideyoshi clan.
