It had been four years since Xena left that fateful night, and she couldn't get the thought of it out of her mind. Sure, the war was over now, and she was completely sane, but she couldn't forget Sasuke. Okay, she felt bad but... she couldn't marry him. Not for what she did to Itachi.
"Xena, wake up." A voice called.
She stopped looking out the window and turned to see her new best friend, Raikeri, standing in her doorway.
"What do you want?"
"Master wants to see you. Something about an assassination."
"Again?"
Raikeri nodded as Xena sighed and got up. That's all it was these days. Assassinations. Kill this person. He ratted us to the ANBU officers. Jesus christ, she couldn't catch a break anywhere. As she approached his office, she mentally slapped herself for being so stupid and coming here in the first place.
"Master..." She said bowing.
The shadow grunted and she stood up.
"Go get your friend Itachi and assassinate THEM."
"Who, sir?"
"The Uchiha clan, god dammit!"
"Oh, yes sir, right away sir!" She yelled and ran to find Itachi
Why she joined the Akatsuki, she didn't know. She did know that four years ago, she had to leave. Had to get out. Had to escape her fate. Neji would be ashamed to see her now. All her friends would. 'All my friends... I left them... and killed most of their families...' She sighed as she knocked on Itachi's door.
"What?!"
"Itachi, get your fat ass out here, we have a mission!" Xena snapped at the clearly irritably older Uchiha.
Itachi opened the door and looked at Xena. Itachi was new, having just ran away from his clan.
"Xena? This is where you ran to?"
"Shut up and let's go." Xena replied irritably. She would much rather be locked in her room reading than doing a mission with Itachi. "And get your stupid cloak on."
Itachi put his Akatsuki cloak on and followed Xena into the night sky.
Sasuke stared at the rising moon. Moon. Xena. Why did everything he thought about have to do with her? She left. Left you. Left everyone.
~* She probably hated your guts.*~
*What? Who are you?*
~*Your concience, stupid. Anyway, she ran away. Forget her.*~
*I can't.*
~*Sigh.*~
He still hadn't married anyone. All he did was sit on his balcony and wait for her. Wait for Xena. He wanted to hear her voice again. To hear her laugh and cry and sing to him.
"Why did you have to go?"
