57 BSNW 053 Journey Starts (1/2)
Itachi woke up to find Jun and Kakashi lying down beside him on the ground. Sun was setting by then , dying the sky in a fierce shade of reddish-orange. Itachi took a deep breath to relax when he finally realized he was in the real world and not a Genjutsu. He lied back for a while before muttering ”They really are a powerful Genjutsu user tribe, the Kuramas. Their prowess can match the strongest of the Uchiha legends.”
”You don't know the half of it.” Kakashi whispered ”There are rumors that the Kurama Heir are chosen for their special bloodlines. But Yakumo has surpassed all her predecessors in talent. Her bloodline is the strongest ever seen in her tribe. Not just that, the scariest thing is, her power enables her to make her illusions to reality under certain circumstances.”
”That's why she is assigned on the team with me .” Jun explained ”My Genjutsu immunity is a perfect counter for her. Hokage wants me to keep an eye on her while giving her a chance to be a real Shinobi. Are you okay Itachi?”
”Hmm .. ya .. fine mostly. Her Genjutsu was so real that I lost myself in it almost , and maybe would have completely forgot myself if something didn't awake within me.” Itachi replied.
”I'll say” Jun exclaimed ”The Flames were really terrifying.”
”Itachi you should talk about it to Fugaku sama before we leave tomorrow. I have a feeling he would have a lot to tell you about it.” Kakashi told him.
”Sure , but I have to meet someone else before that . I will be leaving first guys , will meet you tomorrow early morning at 6 at the gate as planned.” Itachi said as he disappeared with a Flicker.
”Oh ya , that reminds me” Jun exclaimed and took out a scroll and showed it Kakashi. ”Itachi and I found it in Training ground for storing Mutated Chakra Beasts when we were testing Jutsu. The thing is, while I am sure its a speed enhancing Jutsu, with Flying Thunder God being in my arsenal I don't need it. I would like it if you could look through it and teach to the others if they are suited for it . I am sure it could be a trump card.”
”Alright, I will see to it” Kakashi said as he ran his eyes on its title ”Inaba Rabbit Jutsu ….”

The Next day at six p.m. 5 people were assembled outside in travel gear, along with a horde of people who came to see them off.Kakashi looked at the audience with his eyes twitching. Jun could barely stop himself from laughing at Kakashi's expression.
”I can understand why Nara-San is here with family, I will even make allowance for Fugaku-sama for being here for Itachi, But why are you here Hiashi-sama?” Kakashi as in a forced calm voice.
”Well Naruto brought Hinata to see off Jun along with his friends and I just got worried .” Hiashi said , calm as ever while shooting a glare to Fugaku who responded in the same.
