It's been a week since the harvest festival ended, everyone was in their own way shocked about Laxus getting kicked out of the guild. Natsu in particular threw a tantrum. "I can't accept this, Gramps! Why did you kick Laxus out?! He's one of us, you know! Just 'cause he started a fight doesn't change that!" Natsu shouted at the master who was sitting at the bar counter looking to be in serious thought.
"Enough, Natsu!" Erza said.
"I still gotta square off with him again! I'm gonna get strong enough to beat him all by myself next time!" Natsu declared.
"Enough! Put yourself in the master's shoes! Do you honestly think he wanted to expel Laxus?!" Erza said.
"But…!"
"It turns out Laxus is a Dragon Slayer just like Natsu, you see…" Happy said.
"No. He is not a Dragon Slayer." Makarov said as everyone besides Itachi gained a confused expression. "When Laxus was a little boy he was very weak. So his father, my foolish son, Ivan, implanted a lacrima in his body that allowed him to use Dragon Slayer magic."
"A Dragon Slayer magic lacrima… I never knew such things existed…" Happy said.
"Some people from some dark guilds were experimenting on ancient magic like Dragon Slayer Magic, they wanted to see if they could copy a dragon's power to increase their own army's strength. However, the Magic Council managed to stop them and confiscate most of the lacrimas. I assume Ivan must to have had some connections in the underworld if he managed to get his hands on one." Itachi said.
"Yes, most likely… And I have been such a fool for ignoring Laxus all this time, I could have prevented this Battle of Fairy Tail. But no, I wanted the boy to sort out his problems on his own. Therefor…" Makarov then walked into his own personal chamber and exited with a large bag on his back, so large that he couldn't even get it out of the door. "Due to my grandson's foolishness, I will retire my title as guild master!" Makarov announced.
"Master, there's no need for that! It's not your fault you don't have to leave!" Jet said as he and several others gathered around Makarov trying to talk him out of it.
"Yeah, master you don't have to go because that Laxus made a mistake!" Droy said.
"Please do not make Laxus' punishment any worse than it already is. If Laxus were to learn that you had left your role as master…" Freed said having cut his hair extremely short as a sign of repenting, and with his words he was able to convince the master of otherwise. The rest of The Thunder God Tribe began opening up to the others as well.
"You have my permission to use me as a model for your paintings. But don't get the wrong idea; I don't do nudes." Evergreen said as she did some poses for Reedus.
"O-Oui…" Reedus said with a sweat drop.
"How is this? Or is this better?! Hurry and start painting." Evergreen said.
"So are you and Loke in loooove?!" Bickslow asked Lucy with Happy and his dolls floating around him.
"In looooove?!" The dolls chanted.
"They're in looooove!" Happy said.
"You're obnoxious…" Lucy said with an annoyed expression.
"In loooove!" Bickslow said.
"In loooove! In loooove!" The dolls chanted.
Erza was by the bar counter talking to Makarov and Itachi. "Master, onii-chan, can you tell me more about Mystogan?" Erza asked.
"I never imagined he would have the same face as someone you knew… I'm sorry I don't know much about him myself. He's a very quiet person. What about you, Itachi? You're the one person who's talked with Mystogan on several occasions, can you shed some light on the situation?" Makarov asked directing the attention to the young Uchiha.
"… I do know why he looks like Jellal, and I do know a lot about him." Itachi said.
"Then-"
"But, he asked me to keep it a secret. So I'm sorry, but I can't tell you anything." Itachi said when suddenly Erza grabbed onto his shoulders.
"Onii-chan, please…" Erza begged.
"… I will tell you this, he is not the Jellal we know. He is a different person entirely." Itachi said as he felt bad about not telling Erza the truth about Mystogan. But he did owe Mystogan for not telling anyone about his sickness.
"What does that mean?! Can you at least tell me why he looks like Jellal?!" Erza asked shaking Itachi's body much to his annoyance.
"Look, everything will be revealed within time. In the meantime, try not to think about it." Itachi said as he poked Erza's forehead. "Oh and by the way, congratulations on winning the miss Fairy Tail contest." Itachi said with a smile.
"Well I did win for you!" Erza said with a small blush.
Itachi chuckled. "Yeah, thanks."
"By the way shouldn't you get ready for the reporter from Sorcerer Weekly." Mirajane said as she brought the master a new drink.
"Oh, I forgot! Requip!" Erza changed into a dress. "I most go and fix my hair!"
"She sure wants to make a good impression for our guild, doesn't she?" Mira said with a smile and a light chuckle.
"Honestly, she can get worked up over the most silliest of things." Itachi said with an inward smile.
"Aren't you going to get ready?" Mira questioned.
"Why should I? I have never cared about those sorts of things." Itachi replied.
"Well you are very popular, I bet even those reporters would kill for an interview with you. Plus, you're even ranked number 1 on the hottest guy list." Mira said.
"I never asked for it though." Itachi said as he took a sip of some tea. "By the way…"
"Hm?"
"I'm sorry that you missed out on the festival while tending to me." Itachi said.
"Oh, it's no big deal. There's always next year." Mira said.
"I really want to make it up to you, so just tell me what you want me to do and I will do it." Itachi offered.
"Eh? Um, well… How about a date?" Mira suggested with a smile and a small blush.
"A date?" Itachi questioned with an emotionless expression.
"Yeah, I guess it's a no." Mira said with a nervous chuckle.
"Sure, let's do it." Itachi said.
"Eh?" Mira questioned with a small blush and with a confused expression.
"Sure, let's go on a date." Itachi replied with an emotionless expression.
""What?!"" Everyone who heard them questioned in shock.
"Eh?!" Mira's blush grew even more as her entire face was red.
"So cool!" A new voice was heard. Itachi turned to face a hyperactive blond man with a camera hanging around his neck, he was wearing a pink T-shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes. "Cool! Cool! Cool!"
"On no, hello Jason." Itachi sighed.
"So cool! The Demon Eyes of Fairy Tail, Itachi Uchiha and The she-devil, Mirajane Strauss! Are going on a romantic date! So cool!" The reporter known as Jason cheered as he took some pictures.
"Ever heard of personal space?" Itachi asked with an annoyed expression.
"Ohhh! That cold stare! So cool!" Jason said as he got chills.
"A…a…a…da-date…with I-Itachi…" Mira muttered blushing as it looked like steam was coming from her head.
"Where are you planning to go?!" Jason asked.
"No comment." Itachi replied.
"How long have you been dating?!" Jason asked still acting all hyper.
"No comment." Itachi replied with a deadpan expression.
"Have you kissed yet?!" Jason asked making Mira blush a little more.
"No." Itachi replied still with an emotionless deadpan expression.
"Have you had sex yet?!" Jason asked as Mira just blushed even more and fainted just by thinking about it.
"No." Itachi replied still not showing any sign of losing his composure.
"What do you think your millions, billions of fans would think about this new relationship?!" Jason asked.
"I don't care." Itachi bluntly replied to the reporter.
"You're just so cool!" Jason said moving his arms in excitement. "Would you mind if we had an interview?!"
"I would rather not, now go away." Itachi bluntly replied with an emotionless expression.
"Agh, dang it…" Jason bent his head down in defeat.
Itachi turned to the fainted Mira. "Mira, are you, all right?" Itachi asked with a little concern in his tone.
"Oh, Titania Erza!" Jason instantly turned his attention to Erza and ran over to her. Jason then asked Erza to requip back into her original armor, she complied.
"But this is how I always look. I went through all that trouble to dress up…" Erza said with a small blush.
"No problem! Seeing your most natural state is what I wanted most! Cool! Cool! Cool!" Jason said as he took some pictures of Erza. He then proceeded to interview her. "All together, how many kinds of armor can you requip into?!"
"Over 100." Erza replied.
"Cool! Which one is your favorite?!" Jason asked.
"The bunny girl one." Erza replied.
"B-Bunny…?!" Jason questioned with a blush.
"I find the ears adorable." Erza replied.
"Cool!"
Itachi sweat dropped. "I really need to talk to her about that…" Itachi then looked over to Mira who had gotten back up but was still blushing. "Um, Mira?"
"Oh, yes!" Mira quickly replied as she was brought back to reality.
"Are you okay?" Itachi questioned.
"I-I'm perfectly fine." Mira replied still blushing a little.
"So… About the date, how about tomorrow?" Itachi asked.
"Yeah, sounds good…" Mira replied trying to regain her cool.
"It's Gray! It's Gray, in the flesh!" Jason said as he ran past Lucy pushing her to the side.
"Who are you?" Gray questioned.
"Oh, he's the magazine reporter, remember?" Juvia said.
"Oh, are you Juvia?! Cool! Gray! Why are you always so quick to take your clothes off?!"
"I don't take my clothes off! Don't treat me like I'm some pervert!" Gray said despite the fact that his pants were missing.
"Gray-sama! Your pants!" Juvia pointed out for her crush.
"Oh!" Gray looked down and gaped in shock.
"It's so hot in here! Maybe I should take some clothes off too…!" Lucy said trying to gain Jason's attention so that she could be in Sorcerer Weekly.
"All right!" Natsu pushed some tables back pushing Lucy to the side with them. "Which one of you is the reporter?!"
"Natsu! Natsu, the Salamander! All right! So cool!" Jason said as he moved his arms in excitement.
"All right, you! I'll teach you to always write bad stuff about me!" Natsu said as he looked at Jason in a fiery rage.
"Yes!" Jason said simply in excitement.
"Always saying how I destroyed this or how I destroyed that…!"
"So cool! So cool! So cool! Oh, man! It's the real deal! Ultra cool!" Jason said as he extended his hand towards Natsu. "P-Please let me shake your hand!"
"Shut up!" Natsu punched Jason in the face.
"So cool!" Jason rolled across the guildhall. "Oh, man! Too cool! He's a hero, all right! I've never seen such a cool handshake in my life…!" Jason then went across the guildhall and interviewed everyone besides Lucy, whom desperately tried to get his attention. "Team Shadow Gear! Is there really a love triangle going on?!" Jason asked Levy and her team.
Jet and Droy then stepped in front of Levy. ""No comment!"" They both said in unison.
"Your answer is no comment? Oh man, that's awesome!" Jason said with a little too much excitement. He then went over to Fairy Tail's number 1 drinker Cana. "Cana! You should do some glamour shots for us sometime!"
"Just sit down and drink up!" Cana said.
Jason then went over to Makarov. "Master! What are your guild's ambitions?!"
"Oh… Uhh… The daily pursuit of devoting ourselves to love and justice." Makarov said as he was shaking and lying to his teeth.
"Is the Thunder God Tribe being disbanded?!" Jason went on to interview Freed, Bickslow, and Evergreen ignoring Lucy.
"No." Freed simply replied.
"Of course not!" Bickslow said.
"We're going to make up for Laxus' absence!" Evergreen said.
Jason then went over to Laki. "You got a full makeover!" Jason said as Laki had cut her hair shorter.
"I'm aiming to win the next Miss Fairy Tail Contest!" Laki said with a wink as Lucy constantly popped up from the background trying to gain Jason's attention.
Jason then went over to Macao and Wakaba. "It's good to see you two again!"
"You've really grown up!" Wakaba said.
"Go easy on us, okay?" Macao said as Jason kept taking pictures.
"Of course!" Jason said still ignoring Lucy.
"Poor, Lucy… Until she gains a powerful reputation I doubt Jason will be interested…" Itachi said.
"I thought she already had a reputation?" Mira said having regained her cool.
"Really?" Itachi questioned with a sweat drop when suddenly Lucy was on the stage wearing a sexy bunny outfit. "She really is desperate to be in Sorcerer Weekly, isn't she?" Itachi said with a sweat drop.
"Oh my." Mira said with a light chuckle.
"Look at me, everyone! I'm going to sing now!" Lucy said as she gained the attention of everyone especially most of the male population of the guild.
Suddenly she was pushed to the side by Gajeel who had a guitar and his white rocker suit again. "I'll handle the singing! Shoo-bee-doo-ba!"
""Gajeel?!"" Several people said in unison.
""You again?!"" Jet and Droy said in unison.
"Oh, sweet! Black Steel Gajeel! So cool!" Jason said as shivers of excitement ran through his body.
"In this world where the just make fools of themselves, you always made a fool out of yourself." Gajeel said as he played his guitar. "In other words, that means it's just to be a fool, right? Hey, ol' buddy. Can you hear the singing of my soul?"
"Ooh, I'm getting chills! This is too much!" Jason said.
"Shut your trap, Gajeel!" Natsu punched Gajeel of the stage sending him flying to the other end of the guildhall.
"You little…!" Gajeel grumbled in anger.
"Enough of your crappy singing! I got a score to settle with this guy!" Natsu said pointing at Jason, suddenly an iron club hit him in the gut.
"I haven't even started singing! Let me sing, you damn Salamander!" Gajeel shouted.
"Why you…!" Natsu shouted and then a brawl between Natsu and Gajeel erupted.
Mira quickly ran towards them. "H-Hold on, you two! There's a reporter here!"
"All right! Two Dragon Slayers slugging it out in a dazzling ultimate battle before my very eyes! It's settled! The next photo spread will be detailed pics of this!" Jason said as he began taking pictures of the two Dragon Slayers fighting. "So cool! So cool! Could you look over here?! That's it! So cool!" Jason said when suddenly got in between Natsu and Gajeel and then he was punched by Natsu and Gajeel knocking him to the floor. "Th-This is hard hitting reporting… So cool…"
"He's definitely a pro." Happy commented as he popped out of nowhere shrugging his shoulders.
"Okay that's enough." Itachi said as he grabbed Natsu and Gajeel by the collar.
"Hey, Itachi don't get in the way!" Natsu shouted when suddenly Itachi was kneeing Natsu in the gut knocking him out cold. Itachi then dropped Natsu's unconscious body onto the floor.
"Ha! That's what you get Salamander!" Gajeel said then he got kneed in the gut by Itachi knocking him out cold as well. And dropping his unconscious body next to Natsu's on the floor.
"S-So cool…" Jason said taking one last picture before he fell unconscious.
The Next day
Itachi stood in front of a water fountain in the center area of Magnolia. He was wearing his casual outfit a black leather jacket with a large red Fairy Tail symbol on the back, dark blue jeans, and black shoes. "I did say we were going to meet up here, right?" Itachi asked himself as he was waiting for Mirajane.
"Itachi!" Mira's voice was heard and the Uchiha prodigy turned to the source and saw Mira running towards him holding a picnic basket. "I'm sorry I'm late." Mira stopped in front of Itachi while panting a little.
"Well I don't mind you were only five minutes late. Did you oversleep or something?" Itachi asked.
"Um… Yeah sort of…" Mira had a small blush and avoided Itachi's gaze. As she had stayed up late night cooking.
Itachi then noticed the picnic basket. "You didn't have to make that you know, I was willing to pay for anything."
"It's fine, I thought a picnic would be nice." Mira assured with a smile.
Itachi couldn't help but smile himself when he saw Mira's smile. "Well I do enjoy your cooking. So where do you want to go?"
"How about we go around town to find a spot for our picnic?" Mira suggested.
"Sounds good to me. By the way do you want me to carry the basket?" Itachi asked.
"Eh? Oh no, I got it." Mira said.
"…How about we both carry it?" Itachi suggested and grabbed the handle as his and Mira's hands touched.
"Um… Yeah sounds good." Mira replied with a faint blush as she looked at their hands holding the handle of the basket, she noticed the difference in their hand sizes as hers was small and slim, while as Itachi's was big and strong.
Itachi and Mira then began walking together not noticing a certain armored red head hiding behind a tree. "I've always wanted to go on a picnic…" Erza muttered as she clenched her fist while holding the tree cracking it. "Still I can't believe onii-chan and Mira are going on a d-d-d-date…Soon they might get engaged, then married and I get to be a bridesmaid… then there's children who will call me aunty Erza… Or Erza onee-san…" Erza said as images of small dark-haired children that looked like a small version of Itachi and Mira appeared in her mind.
While as a certain tall white-haired man hid in an alley. "He better act like a real man to nee-chan or else…" Elfman said as he stared at his older sister and Itachi.
Itachi was sweat dropping. 'Do they really think they can hide from me?' Itachi thought and looked over to Mira who hasn't seemed to notice that Erza and her little brother were following them. 'Well I shouldn't worry her about it.' Itachi decided to pretend that they weren't even there.
As they kept walking Erza and Elfman slowly followed them when the two of them suddenly noticed each other. "Erza? What are you doing here?" Elfman questioned when Erza shushed him and dragged him into an alley.
"Hmm, did you hear something?" Mira asked as she looked behind them.
"No, not a thing." Itachi replied as he and Mira kept walking. 'They wouldn't have lasted as spies back in Konoha that's for sure.' Itachi thought
"What are you thinking? You almost had us busted?" Erza said in a whisper tone as she held Elfman up against the wall by his collar.
"Sorry…" Elfman apologized in a whisper tone. "What are you even doing here?"
"Can't a little sister look after her big brother, when he's on a date? I think I have the right to help them decide on their future." Erza said getting mixed up in other people's lives.
"What future their just on a date?" Elfman questioned.
"True it's dating now. But it can later lead to engagement, marriage, kids." Erza said as she had already begun imagining what Itachi and Mira's future would look like.
"Don't you think your overthinking this." Elfman said with a sweat drop.
"Anyway, why are you here?" Erza asked.
"I'm here to make sure he acts like a proper real man with nee-chan. If not I will…" Elfman said clenching his fist.
"You will what…?" Erza asked with a scary expression as she held a sword in her hand.
Elfman began sweating out of fear. "Um… nothing…" Elfman replied out of fear when he suddenly noticed something. "Their gone!"
"What?! You idiot, we have to find them!" Erza said as they ran out from the alley and began searching.
With Itachi and Mira. Itachi peeked behind him and didn't notice Erza nor Elfman. 'Knowing them they probably lost sight of us.'
"Why do you keep looking behind us?" Mira questioned.
"Oh, I just thought I saw something, don't worry about it." Itachi replied.
"Hey that seems like a nice spot." Mira said gaining Itachi's attention as she was looking at a pier with the view of a lake. Itachi widened his eyes as memories of him and Izumi having their small dates on a pier like this with a lake. Then an image of him stabbing Izumi during the Uchiha massacre after he had placed her in an illusion. Mira looked at him with a confused expression. "Is something wrong?"
"… No… everything's fine." Itachi replied and then looked Mira in the eyes and gave her a smile. "Let's go." They both went down and sat by the end of the pier with the picnic basket between them. "So what did you make?"
"Well there are some sandwiches, some rice and fried chicken, some tea, and something special for dessert." Mira said as she brought out a tray of small sandwiches cut into triangles, a box with rice and fried chicken, and a thermos with the tea.
"Thanks for the meal then." Itachi said and took one of the sandwiches. "Mhm, delicious."
"Really?" Mira asked.
"Yeah, it's really good. Your cooking is always the best." Itachi replied with a smile as Mira gained a small blush.
"Th-Thanks." Mira thanked as they sat on the pier and ate the food having a good time. "Um, Itachi? Have you thought about what you're going to do about your sickness?"
"… Well, I will just have to look for that Blood Vein flower, mix it with the medicine Polyusica gave me and get cured." Itachi replied.
"Have you thought about how you're going to find it?" Mira asked as she was worried about Itachi's condition, it has been bothering her for days now actually. She even tends to have dreams now that she finds the flower and that Itachi gets cured.
"Well Porlyusica have given me a few un-explored locations around the country where it might grow due to the environment in that area. So I guess I will start there." Itachi replied.
"When you get cured, have you decided what you want to do with your life?" Mira asked.
"What I will do? I don't really know." Itachi replied.
"Oh come on, you've got to have a dream of some kind you want to accomplish?" Mira said as Itachi laid back with his hands placed on the back of his head.
"Hm, I have actually never given it much thought. I just thought I would remain in the guild and help everyone else accomplish their goals. Be there to support everyone, I don't think I have ever considered my own future." Itachi replied as he looked at the clouds in the sky.
"Haven't you ever wanted to do anything about your future, like start a family?" Mira said as she had a faint blush imagining her starting a family with Itachi.
"Start a family, huh?" Itachi muttered as he was now in deep thought. 'A family? Do I even deserve it? I have so much blood on my hands, the blood of people I loved, my blood. After robbing so many of their futures, do I really deserve something like that?' Itachi thought when suddenly Mira's face looked down on him.
"Well?" Mira asked as she was hoping for an answer.
"Honestly, I don't really know." Itachi replied as he sat back up. "I haven't even thought about what I want since…"
"Since what?" Mira questioned.
"Since my family died. I haven't really considered it, or thought about it since then." Itachi replied as he had a little depressed expression.
Suddenly Mira placed her hand on his shoulder. "Don't you think they would want you to be happy?"
"I… I don't know…"
"I think they would, they loved you after all didn't they?" Mira said with a smile that looked like the sun to Itachi.
"Hn," Itachi smiled inwardly as memories of him spending time with his mother, father, brother, Shisui, Izumi, all went through his mind. "I guess they did…".
"Of course, they did. Who couldn't love a cutie like you?" Mira smiled and let out a light chuckle.
"Well for one, there were numerous boys in my class back at the ninja academy who didn't. And that was because of my talent, and mostly my popularity with the girls." Itachi said as he and Mira shared a chuckle.
"Oh, so you were quite the ladies' man, huh?" Mira teased.
"Honestly just thinking about all those fangirls still scares me a bit." Itachi said rubbing the back of his head and shivering a little.
While as Erza and Elfman had manage to finally find them and was watching them from behind a light pole. Of course, Itachi noticed right away, while as it appeared that Mira didn't, as she seemed to focus on Itachi. "Great we finally caught up with them." Erza said.
"He better not have done anything weird to nee-chan." Elfman said as they both stared at the couple.
"Oh, so even the great Demon Eyes of Fairy Tail fears something?" Mira kept on teasing the Uchiha prodigy.
Itachi chuckled with a small grin. "Stop. By the way what's the surprise you had for desert?"
Mira then gained a little devilish smirk. "Well you see, I wanted to find a way to make it enjoyable, and punish you for running away from the infirmary during the Battle of Fairy Tail." Mira said.
'This can't be good…' Itachi thought narrowing his eyes.
Mira brought out something from the picnic basket, it was a box with four dango's. "This is my personal own homemade dango…" Mira said as Itachi stared intensely at the dango while shaking. "And you can't have any."
"… If want to punish me, I would rather want you to beat me to a bloody pulp." Itachi said as he tried to reach out for one of the dango's, then Mira slapped his hand. "This is a fate worse than death…"
"It sure does look delicious." Mira said and began eating one of the dango sticks in front of Itachi, who was shaking a drooling while looking at the dango. "Such a sweet flavor."
"You live up to your title as she-devil… Come on this is not fair, Mira have a heart…" Itachi begged.
"You should have thought about that, before you went to fight despite being sick." Mira said and ate another one.
"Come on, this is pure torture…" Itachi said as he was on his knees.
"Thought you were a master of torture? This should be nothing to you." Mira ate another one as Itachi kept staring intensely at the last one. "And now for the last one." Mira said as she brought the dango closer to her lips.
Itachi then had enough and quickly went in for the attack. Suddenly Itachi was on top of Mira and they took a bite on the opposite side of one of the dango dumplings, and the tip of their lips touched. Itachi backed away as both him and Mira had a faint blush. "I-I'm sorry…" Itachi got off Mira.
"I-It's alright…" Mira said as she avoided Itachi's gaze out of embarrassment. She then handed the last stick of dango to Itachi. "H-Here, just take it…"
"Um… Thanks…" Itachi thanked and took the last dango.
While two certain people one armored red head, and a tall white-haired man stood and watched from behind a light pole. Erza had stars in her eyes as it seemed her plans for Itachi and Mira's future went perfectly.
Elfman on the other hand, was gapping as he stared at Itachi with pure rage. "N-Nee-chan… How dare he do that do her!" Elfman was about to attack Itachi but was then kicked into a building behind them by Erza.
"Don't interfere with our happiness." Erza said including herself in Itachi and Mira's happiness.
"Geez how long are they planning on spying on us, it's kind of embarrassing." Mira said with a small blush, as she was referring to her old rival and her little brother.
"You mean you noticed them?" Itachi questioned in shock as to why she didn't mention it before.
"It's kind of hard not to, they really stand out in a crowd you know." Mira replied with a light chuckle.
"And here I thought you didn't notice them. When did you notice them by the way?" Itachi asked.
"Well, I noticed Elfman following after me when I went to meet you, I noticed Erza when we started to walk around town to find our little perfect picnic spot." Mira replied.
"Huh, I only noticed them when we meet at the fountain." Itachi said.
"Then why didn't you say anything?" Mira questioned.
"Well I didn't want to bother you with it. Why didn't you say anything?" Itachi asked.
"Well it's no big deal really, it's kind of cute actually the way they worry about us." Mira replied with a chuckle.
Itachi let out a small chuckle as well. "Well for Erza it's more like wanting to get mixed into my personal life."
"Should we tell them we know they're there?" Mira asked.
"Hmm, no, let them keep thinking they have gone unnoticed." Itachi said as the sunset arrived. "Well guess all that's left for me to do is to take you home." Itachi stood up and then did the gentleman thing and helped Mira up. Mira picked up the picnic basket as they left pretending not to notice Erza and Elfman who were hiding their faces behind a newspaper.
When they arrived at Mira's house the full moon was already out. "Thanks, I had a wonderful time." Mira thanked as Itachi escorted her to the door.
"It was my pleasure. Oh, and here." Itachi brought out his old neckless he got from his parents when he joined the anbu, it had three silver rings with small red gems inside them.
"What's this?" Mira questioned as Itachi gave her the neckless.
"A little reminder of our date, do you like it?" Itachi asked.
Mira smiled and had a faint blush on her cheeks. "…Yeah I love it."
Itachi smiled as he then gently poked Mira's forehead. "Well then, I will see you at the guild tomorrow. Good night."
"Yeah, good night." Mira said as her hand was placed over the spot on her forehead where Itachi poked her.
Itachi walked through the nighty streets of Magnolia as he was heading back home. "Guess I found one."
Meanwhile back at Mira's house. She was in her bedroom wearing her white nightgown as she looked into a mirror, she took the neckless she got from Itachi and put it on. "He's such a sweetheart." Mira said as she had a faint blush, while touching the neckless from Itachi that was around her neck. When she suddenly heard Elfman returning home. "And here comes mister over protective." Mira said with a small chuckle.
Back with Itachi who was still walking through the streets of Magnolia. "I found one, mom, dad…" Itachi muttered as he looked up at the night sky and the full moon.
Flashback
In the Uchiha district in Konoha in the head house of the Uchiha clan, a twelve-year-old Itachi had informed his parents that he was going to join the anbu. His parents then gave him a wrapped-up gift. "What's this for?" Itachi asked.
"It's a gift to celebrate you becoming a member of the anbu, also a gift since you're almost a man." His father Fugaku replied.
"I'm twelve." Itachi pointed out.
"That may be true, but your much more mature and wise then most of the adults in our clan, heck in this entire village." Itachi mother Mikoto said with a sense of pride in her voice for her oldest son.
Itachi opened the gift which was a box. Itachi then opened the box and saw a neckless with three silver rings with small red gems inside them. "A neckless?"
"It's more than that. It's a special neckless it is said to bring you luck when you give it to someone special, someone you wish to protect, someone you don't ever want to see sad, someone you love." Mikoto said as she was already beginning to imagine Itachi finding a girl and giving them grandchildren.
"Well that, and it is said that no matter how far away this person gets from you. The two of you will always be together." Fugaku said with the famous emotionless Uchiha expression, unlike his wife.
"Itachi, do you have anyone like that now?" Mikoto asked.
"Well, I'm not sure…" Itachi replied. Of course, there was always Izumi but he didn't exactly know how he felt about her. "Guess I maybe just haven't found one yet…"
Flashback end
'I'm pretty sure now though. I did have feelings like this for Izumi but I never realized it until she was gone. But now that I know these feelings are like…' Itachi thought as he looked up into the night sky. "I know for sure now." Itachi said as he went on home as the full moon shined in the night sky. 'Although whether or not I deserve her love is a totally different question.' Itachi thought when he suddenly remembered what Mira said.
"I think they would, they loved you after all didn't they?" Mira's words echoed through his mind.
"You truly are a kind, gentle child." Itachi's fathers last words echoed through his mind.

Itachi was by the bar counter talking to Makarov as Itachi looked at Mira who was serving people drinks. "Tell me, Itachi my boy…"
"Hn?" Itachi questioned as he looked over to Master Makarov.
"You obviously have some feelings for Mira, and it's obvious that she has feelings for you. So why don't you do anything about it?" Makarov asked.
"… It's complicated…" Itachi replied.
"I assume it has something to do with your past?" Makarov said taking a sip of beer.
"Yes…" Itachi replied as he watched how cheerful everyone was in the guild.
"My boy usually I would tell you not to dwell in the past, but your past is not just a past. It's a previous life, and not that many gets a second chance at life. If you ask me you should live this new life of yours to the fullest, you don't want to waste it by dwelling to much in the past of your old one." Makarov said.
Flashback end
"Live my new life to the fullest…" Itachi said to himself. "I might just do that…" Itachi said as his lips formed into a small smile.
That's the end for now!
