Early in the morning, a loud noise made the katana startle. She sat up and took a moment to realize that Itachi had taken her here. Itachi knocked and said to her: "Get dressed and wash yourself, we'll start training in ten minutes!" "Okay, I'll come ..." said Katana. She quickly dressed and washed her face. All of this was still a bit strange for her. Itachi had put a piece of bread and cheese on the table. She ate it all up and went outside, where Itachi was already waiting. "We'll start with muscle training first and I think we have to do a lot until your muscles are built up, so let's start right away," with these words he went to a kind of training ground with her. "You will be working according to this plan for the next week. I have something else to do. I'll be back this afternoon around 2 pm, I expect that you have done everything that is written here by then," he said to her and like on a piece of paper that he held in his hand and pinned to a tree.Then he left.
First Katana was supposed to run 20 laps around the field, but only after 5 laps she had to take a break because she could not breathe, but she did the program hard. She was used to freezing, being out of breath, and going on and on until she collapsed.
So she managed all the tasks before Itachi returned. That's why she did
continue with the exercise she was least able to do, push-ups! When Itachi came back she was lying exhausted on the lawn. "Well? Have you finished?" "Yes!" Replied Katana, very briefly as always. "I put something to eat in my hut for you. Then you can rest a bit. I'll pick you up again afterwards!", Itachi said and Katana just nodded and went into the hut to eat and rest.
As she lay on her bed she thought about her current situation. Actually, I'm fine here ... I get food and have a roof over my head until now. But I found the conversation yesterday frightening ... But he wouldn't ... kill me, would he?He wiped out an entire clan ... I think ... Any coward would run away. But that wouldn't be wise, if I ran away, I would be hunted down and killed by this organization. No, it is certain that I will stay here!
At that moment Itachi came into the room. Katana sat up. “Come with me.” She followed him to a small hut that was next to the center. Itachi took off his shoes without hesitation and went into the hut. Katana followed suit and went inside too.
"Is that her?" Asked a bearded old man. "Yes," replied Itachi. "Bring her here!" Itachi looked at Katana and made it clear to her with a wave of the hand that she should go to the old man. She did that too. The man looked at her, took her little finger, and pricked her finger with a needle. Katana twitched once and fixed her eyes on the bleeding finger. The man took a small test tube and the blood dripped into it. "Come back tomorrow, then you're done!", he said and turned away from his visitors. Itachi and Katana went outside and put their shoes on again. Now Itachi went with her to the training ground.
"In the afternoon you will learn with him how to use throwing stars and kunai and other little things you will need!", Itachi said, pointing to a young man who was not wearing a coat, like the other men here. The man said to Itachi: "And you really mean that you can get something out of it? I don't know ..." Itachi glared at the man sharply and he fell silent immediately. Then Itachi left.
"So what's your name?" "Katana!" "Aha, that's .." ".. a pretty unusual name for a girl? I know! I don't know who you are, but I don't want to disappoint Itachi, either if I don't know what he's going to do with me! "she burst out. The young man paused and looked at Katana puzzled. After a short moment, the man said, "I'm Yuki and I'm on my way to become a member of Akatsuki.And that also means that I have to train a cheeky little girl! "" That is probably the case then! Can we start now? "" Okey, take a kunai and show what you can already do.
Katana did that too. She took a kunai from Yuki and took a fighting position. Yuki attacked her promt. The first scratch was on her forearm. Katana didn't care about her injury and this time attacked Yuki. The parried the attack effortlessly. After a few minutes and scratches later, Yuki Katana asked: "Tell me, have you ever had a gun in your hand?" "Yes, my brother gave me a little lesson so that I could defend myself!" Katana said and thought to her brother, who was killed by enemy ninja three years ago. "Aha. Then we'll start the attack once you can defend yourself. I'll show you how to attack with a kunai ..." He took his kunai in his hand so that the tip was down and left took a step towards a tree and "attacked" the tree, leaving it with a large and deep scratch."So, now you!" Katana did exactly what she had just seen and lo and behold, under the scratch from Yuki there was now a scratch that was half as long, but twice as deep. Yuki looked at the scratch and praised katana. But secretly he told himself that this was only a beginner's luck.
After that she should try to meet Yuki as often as possible. In the beginning she got more scratches than Yuki had to defend herself. But after just over half an hour, she met several times.
They paused for a little while and Katana, which has been pretty quiet since she's been here, Yuki didn't find as quiet, distant and distant as Itachi, and she wasn't afraid anymore, or at least less than at the beginning. She asked, "Could you tell me a little bit about Itachi? I mean, it would help me if I knew something about him ... right?" Yuki thought for a moment. Then he replied, "Yes, I think it's okay if I tell you something: Well, Itachi is one of the strongest ninjas around here and probably everywhere else!He is stronger than Orochimaru, one of the Sanin! And that you were taken in by him is strange ... Otherwise he won't look at other people and he took you to the secret hiding place of Akatsuki, that wasn't just a surprise to me! He must have seen something in you that fascinated him, I think. Otherwise why should he take in a girl who has no idea about fighting ...?
Oh yes, back to Itachi's story. So at the age of seven he insisted on the ninja academy as the best of the year, at eight he knew all the secrets of his Sharingan and was able to use them, at ten he was appointed chunin and at 13 he became an Anbu team leader, he skipped the jonin rank . That year he wiped out the entire Uchia clan because he wanted to know how strong he is. "" But he left his little brother alive, right? He should be my age. "" Yes that's true, that's why you should spy on him and befriend him, Itachi needs reliable sources and you certainly wouldn't tell him anything wrong.In any case, I would not advise you! "Yuki said seriously." I thought I should watch the nine-tailed one? "she asked." Yes, of course. First and foremost, you should take care of the nine-tailed man, but Sasuke is secretly a serious topic for Itachi too! "he said at the end.
"So now we have had enough chat! Come on, we will continue with the training!" Katana got up immediately and suddenly attacked Yuki. He jumped to the side in surprise and blocked the blow. "What was that supposed to be?" "I wanted to try something ..." "Then I'll show you the best way to attack when you don't have a weapon at hand!" Yuki showed Katana all possible strokes and how to use them Chakra points most accurately. Katana understood quickly and could do the punches very well, but it takes time and work to become a good ninja.
They continued to train for a while. When it was getting dark, Itachi came and took katana with him.As usual, he had put something to eat for her and then went back outside. She ate and lay dead tired in her bed. She fell asleep immediately.
