Naruto High School Part 16 - Again on Hold. But hey look! It's some Reunion Fics!
Again sorry! Man, i just can't seem to do it. I just have a project that i gotta do and I'm tired, too.

Well here's a little something to cheer you up... my sister's fan fiction!

If you read Reunion parts 1,2,3 (look in my archives, they're somewhere) here's 4 and 5! Hope you like!

Reunion Part 4: Something Worth Fighting For

"Sasuke, that's it," Itachi suddenly said. He surprised himself, his mouth having a mind of its own. "I killed your family. Just leave me alone," he mumbled. He suddenly felt the ANBU's grip loosen from his arms. Then, the cloth that covered his eyes was untied.

"Sasuke! Stop!" Tsunade yelled. Sasuke ignored the Godaime Hokage, helping his older brother up.

"You're right. You did. You killed our clan," Sasuke slowly admitted. "But, I don't want you to hurt yourself...because then you'd leave me alone...by myself." Itachi stared at his younger brother. "You heard me before. I forgive you, so please stop hurting yourself over it."

"Sasuke..." Itachi whispered, standing up. "You do know how much you are sacrificing for me. It's not worth it." Sasuke shook his head.

"We're brothers Nii-san," he grinned at him. "Don't forget it."

"Sasuke, what...?" Itachi couldn't help but mutter. Sasuke was standing right there, protecting him as if he was his own older brother. "Sasuke, don't throw Konoha's trust away. That's the most important thing for you, now." He looked up at the Godaime Hokage. "I'll be leaving, now,"

Then, just out of the blue, Sasuke turned around, giving Itachi a clean punch on the face. Itachi felt that his younger brother was holding back, but it still hurt. "Don't say that!" Sasuke told him, anger rising in his voice.

"What are you doing, Uchiha Sasuke!?" Tsunade groaned. She still wasn't intending to start a huge ruckus quite yet. Sasuke didn't pay any attention to the drunk Hokage. Itachi stared at the younger Uchiha with some concern.

"Sasuke, I can't stay with you," Itachi murmured, fingering the place where Sasuke punched him. "Konoha won't let me back into the village, no matter how much you beg them, no matter how many reasons you give them." Sasuke glared at him with anger and sadness. His expression quickly changed back to normal as he said,

"I don't care. They'll take you back somehow," Sasuke tried to say that as assuringly as he could. Itachi still stared at his brother in disbelief.

"Sasuke, what are you saying? I killed your family, remember?" Itachi yelled, getting frustrated. Why didn't Sasuke listen to his words nine years ago?

"If you wish to kill me, hate me, detest me, and live in an unsightly way. Run, run and cling to life. And when your eyes are the same as mine, come before me."

"Not my family, nii-san," Sasuke said so quietly that Itachi could barely hear him. "Our family. Didn't I tell you? We're brothers, no matter what you do, no matter what you say." Itachi groaned, Sasuke using his own tactics against him.

Tsunade sighed. "I warned you, Uchiha. Get out of the way, and let us capture that stubborn brother of yours." Obviously she was talking about 'Uchiha Sasuke'. The Hokage stepped forward, finally getting serious.

"No," Sasuke protested. The young Uchiha stood his ground, glaring at the approaching Medical Specialist. Tsunade's fist clenched, slightly lifting. Her eyes, turned to the left, Sasuke feeling confident that her attack was going to the left. Itachi saw what was coming. Sasuke was feeling hesitant, and he was going to make another careless move. When her punch to the right surprised the young Uchiha, Itachi pushed him out of the way, and dodging the punch just barely.

"Nii-san?" Sasuke mumbled, looking at his brother who just saved him. Itachi grabbed the Sannin's fist, throwing the girl to the ground. It really seemed that Itachi wasn't afraid to hit a women. "You saved me?" Sasuke said, his gaze not leaving the older Uchiha.

Itachi couldn't help but smirk. "We're brothers. Don't forget it." a grin spread across the younger Uchiha's face.

"Right!" Sasuke said, his heart getting filled once more. Itachi nodded, about to engage in a fight with Tsunade-sama, until Naruto, Kakashi, Sakura, Neji, Hinata, and Rock Lee burst into the room.

"Aha!" Naruto yelled, his loud, annoying voice filling everyone's ears. "You!" He pointed an accusing finger at the elder Uchiha, who kept his grip on Tsunade's wrist, just as he did with Sasuke at episode 84. "Uchiha Itachi!"

Itachi's gaze turned to the group of shinoibi that just arrived. Sasuke, who was about to plunge into battle with the Godaime Hokage, too, regained his balance and stared at his friends. "What are you all doing here?" he said, hiding a kunai behind his back just in case.

"Sasuke-kun, what were you doing?" Sakura cried, her hands shaking. It must have been hard for that particular kunoichi, because the love of her life and her idol were about to begin a serious battle. "What's going on here?"

Kakashi's lone eye swiveled to the direction of the elder Uchiha, also prepared for another battle with him. "This is Uchiha Itachi?" Rock Lee asked Naruto. Naruto didn't say anything to the curious youth-loving shinobi, he just simply nodded.

"Uchiha Itachi...?" Hinata murmured, both Hyuuga's Byakugan flaring on while they both got into the Gentle Fist stance. "I heard you talk a little about your encounters with him earilier...right?"

"It's one against seven," Kakashi suddenly said, his hand reaching into his kunai pouch that was strapped on his right leg. "It would be wise to surrender, seeing that one of them is one of the Sannin."

"No," Sasuke suddenly said bravely. "It's two against six." The younger Uchiha stood boldly behind his older brother, his hand holding the kunai slightly shaking. Now, of all nights, Christmas Eve, he was turning against his own friends to join his older brother again...

"Sasuke!" Naruto growled. "What do you think you're doing? I thought you wanted to kill him!" his finger that was pointing directly at Itachi was now shaking, too. "Why are you turning against us...?"

"Because..." Sasuke mumbled. "He changed! I know it! We can trust him now. Can't we give him a second chance?" He stared almost pleadingly at the female Sannin that was held back by the elder Uchiha.

Tsunade didn't pay any attention to anyone in the room. She raised her fist again, about to attack the Uchiha, until, again, Itachi broke her wrist, the exact same way he did to Sasuke. Sasuke slightly winced, seeing the sight of that move brought back painful memories.

"Grrgh..." Tsunade growled, clutching her right wrist with her left hand, about to heal herself. Itachi didn't give her a chance to conjure up her chakra. He kicked her off her feet before anything healing could occur, blasting the Hokage to the wall.

"Nii-san," Sasuke murmured, staring at the already knocked out Tsunade. "Please, don't kill anyone else." Itachi's gaze then turned back to Sasuke, concern reaching his eyes. Sasuke stared right at his older brother's eyes, even with the knowledge of the consequences of staring into a Sharingan eyes.

Naruto finally withdrew his accusing finger, joining it with the rest of his fingers, forming a fist. "You're not getting away this time!" Uzumaki recklessly charged for the elder Uchiha who dodged the move, grabbing his foot and holding him up into the air, upside-down.

"You're forcing me to fight," he simply said to the hanging Kitsune before tossing him aside.

"What does he mean, 'you're forcing me to fight'?" Kiba whispered to TenTen, who just shrugged.

"Probably because he does not want to fight," Kakashi simply put it. "Uchiha Itachi...What his your purpose of coming back to Konoha again?" Itachi stayed silent, staring at the group of shinobi.

"Teme!" Naruto's voice came from behind Itachi, his fist still clenched, leaping right at the Uchiha. Itachi dodged the attack. as if it was nothing, grabbing Naruto's fist, holding him up high enough so his feet didn't even touch the ground.

"I told you, you're forcing me to fight. Just leave me alone, and I will leave you alone, you've got that?" Itachi growled, shaking Naruto. Naruto, who was getting desprate, tried kicking Itachi, but that just caused him to get thrown over to the wall again.

Right when that happened, Tsunade punched the side of the older Uchiha's face, comepletely surprising him. "Nani...?" Itachi mumbled, the strength of the Hokage blasting him to the other side of the room.

"Nii-san!" Sasuke yelled, running over to him. Tsunade was awakened by Sakura earilier, and her wrist was healed by the young kunoichi, too. Itachi was the one knocked out cold, but not dead, because Tsunade only used half of her super-strength. "Wake up..." Sasuke mumbled, kneeling down next to his older brother. Sasuke suddenly felt Kakashi grip his shoulder gently.

"Look..." Kakashi said, thinking of something comforting to say to Sasuke.

"You don't have to say anything," Sasuke quietly muttered when the ANBU who captured Itachi got back up again and dragged the Uchiha away again. "You don't..."


So sad *cries*

Reunion Part 5: Akatsuki Arrives!

"Teme!" Naruto's voice came from behind Itachi, his fist still clenched, leaping right at the Uchiha. Itachi dodged the attack. as if it was nothing, grabbing Naruto's fist, holding him up high enough so his feet didn't even touch the ground.

"I told you, you're forcing me to fight. Just leave me alone, and I will leave you alone, you've got that?" Itachi growled, shaking Naruto. Naruto, who was getting desprate, tried kicking Itachi, but that just caused him to get thrown over to the wall again.

Right when that happened, Tsunade punched the side of the older Uchiha's face, comepletely surprising him. "Nani...?" Itachi mumbled, the strength of the Hokage blasting him to the other side of the room.

"Nii-san!" Sasuke yelled, running over to him. Tsunade was awakened by Sakura earilier, and her wrist was healed by the young kunoichi, too. Itachi was the one knocked out cold, but not dead, because Tsunade only used half of her super-strength. "Wake up..." Sasuke mumbled, kneeling down next to his older brother. Sasuke suddenly felt Kakashi grip his shoulder gently.

"Look..." Kakashi said, thinking of something comforting to say to Sasuke.

"You don't have to say anything," Sasuke quietly muttered when the ANBU who captured Itachi got back up again and dragged the Uchiha away again. "You don't..." Sasuke turned around and dashed outside, pushing away all happy Christmas carolers in the road. It probably was just a trick that Itachi confessed.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura called, trying to run after him, only to be held back by Kakashi. The white haired Jounin shook his head solemnly at the pink haired kunoichi. "But, sensei," Sakura protested.

"Didn't I tell you before in the preliminary rounds?" Kakashi said quietly to the concerned girl. "Sometimes sympathetic words don't make the situation better. Just leave it be, Sakura."

"But..." Naruto began to protest, too. "But Sasuke really seemed upset and..." Kakashi shook his head again. Naruto frowned, but stayed quiet. Sakura stared at Naruto at first in amazement that the young Kitsune actually listened to his sensei. Then he stared out into the snowy distance, wondering how Sasuke was doing.

"Sasuke-kun...I hope you're all right."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Gh...Let me go," Itachi groaned, struggling against the ANBU's grip right when he awakened. "There's no need to capture me..."

"Actually, yes, there is," Tsunade sighed. She really didn't want to go through this trouble, especially on Christmas Eve. "You killed the Uchiha Clan, therefore weakening Konoha's defense. And by doing so, you also endangered one of the world's most precious doujutsu...Sharingan."

"Do you think I care about the damned Sharingan?" Itachi growled brutally at the Godaime Hokage. "Just let me go...Or else."

"Humph. Or else what? Do you think you can take us all on, including me, a Sannin?" Tsunade challenged the prodigious, yet dangerous Uchiha. "Times have changed, Itachi-chan." Itachi frowned, mainly at the use of the honorific 'chan'.

"Shut up. You have no idea..." Itachi said menacingly. "I don't want to kill you all, because it is not necessary, and it is not going to help anyone."

"Such odd words for someone who killed thier own family," one Black Ops ANBU ninja shook his head. The other shinobi didn't say a word, staring down at the still struggling older Uchiha.

"If you use your head, those words won't sound odd at all," Itachi retorted. Dispite his respectful appearance, Itachi proved to be rude at times. "I killed those useless beings because it was necessary. You won't get anything else out of me, now."

Tsunade groaned. "I don't want to handle him right now. Let's take care of the Uchiha predicament after Christmas Day. For now, just lock him up, and blindfold him. Keep him alive, but don't let him regain too much strength. Make sure that no one gets to him."

"Hai!" all the ANBU immediately responded. They swiftly ran off with the captured Uchiha Itachi, to a special jail for special criminals. Once they reached the destination, they turned to face Itachi, their tight grip loosening on him.

"Heh. What are you guys doing here?" Itachi asked, not moving a single muscle.

"I knew you would figure us out. Amazing that this Genjutsu wasn't found out by the all-famous Godaime Hokage Tsunade-sama," a familiar voice especially to Itachi came from under the masks. The Genjustu was dispelled from the three ANBU Black Ops members.

They're true identities were Hosigaki Kisame, Deidara of Iwa and (I don't care if he's dead) Akasuna no Sasori. "Itachi-san, we came to get you back. Why did you run away like that, anyway?"

"That's none of your concern," Itachi mumbled as an answer, standing up. "Just leave me alone. I don't want anything to do with the organization Akatsuki anymore." Kisame's two odd-looking eyes widened as he winced.

"NANI!?" Kisame yelped in surprise. Deidara and Sasori covered the half-shark's mouth before he could yell anything else. ("Shut up, Kisame!" Deidara groans) "Wh-What do you mean?" the shark dropped his voice to a lower tone.

"I meant what I said. I don't want anything to do with you guys," Itachi said, turning around and about to jump away until one of Sasori's puppets latched onto him.

"Well, uh," Kisame stuttered. "You're still part of our organization if you're wearing that cloak with the red clouds on it!" Deidara bonked his fellow Akatsuki member's head, but didn't say anything.

"Well, if you say so, then," Itachi groaned, getting impatient. He kicked off the puppet, and in the process his Akatsuki cloak was left on the ground. The older Uchiha tried not to shivier in the cold weather.

"Tch. Uh," Deidara said, trying to play along. "You're still part of the Akatsuki if you're wearing that ring 'Shu'."

Itachi groaned, getting frustrated. "Fine." He slowly removed the scarlet ring from his right ring finger, dropped in on the ground, crushing it under is foot. "You happy yet?" the impatient Uchiha demanded.

"The headband! As long as you wear that crossed out headband, you're still part of the Akatsuki!" Sasori suggested, trying to hide his desprate expression. "Geez, this kid is so persistent," Akasuna no Sasori muttered under his breath.

"You know, you people are persistent, too," Itachi growled at his old so called 'friends' or the better word might have been allies. The Prodigy Uchiha reached to the back of his head, slowly untying his old crossed out headband, letting it slip to the snowy ground. "There, I'm goi-"

"No! Not yet. You're still part of the Akatsuki if you still have that nail polish!" It was obvious that Kisame was not totally desprate. Itachi groaned.

"I won't pay any attention to you...now leave, and don't you dare come back," Itachi said. "Go." The Akatsuki members wouldn't budge. "Humph. It'd be useless to kill you all."

"Do you honestly think you can kill all three of us at the same time? Just as the Godaime Hokage-sama said-Times have changed," Sasori announced boldly. Kisame shook his head, indicated for them to just leave and come back later.

"I'll just leave, then, if there's nothing else important for you to tell me," Itachi sighed, ignoring his desprate old allies and dashed away, abandoning them in the snow. Once he was out of sight, he had to shiver slightly. Even as a genius-he had to admit, it was really freezing that night.
