Title: New Personal Guard...

{Some people seem confused, but let this be clear, Yami has his normal appearance. He used cellular Reconstruction to change his appearance back at how it looked and buried the Sharingan from around his head under his skull.}

….

-Yami POV-

While in my office, I just smile as I look through the eyes of one of the flies outside of the cave. Orochimaru obviously survived this, but not without a scratch, he lost one of his legs. Obviously I know that he can make a new one, but he will need time to. Also he doesn't have the healing methods that he will have in  the future, he still hasn't perfected his experimental jutsus.

He is my pawn… he just doesn't know it yet.

*sigh* 

Really though… it seems like I may need to step things up a little. I am already 100% prepared for when the 4th Ninja War comes around, but some more preparations don't hurt.

Also I have a certain seedling that I have been helping to grow. I sense the Hiraishin I have close to that person and..

*fwish*

I disappear in a dark flash.

….

When my view changes, I see that I am in a dark room. With a man sleeping on his desk, he has different books about chakra and chakra theories all around him.

I immediately activate the Byakugan and as a side effect, veins appear on my forehead. I know that even if I slap the person sleeping in front of me too hard he will be killed by me. But that doesn't mean that I have to be careless…

This man's name is Hiruko, he is a white-haired man with red eyes,  he is wearing a beige robe with red undergarments, and his hair's length has reached his hips.

I just reach him and grab the back of his head. He immediately wakes up, but before he can even do anything.

<Yami Jutsu: Full Memory Extraction>

His eyes go dull and he starts drooling like a vegetable. I have a ball made out of light in my hand. This is all of the memories of Hiruko.

*plop*

Hiruko slips out of his chair and drops to the ground. But I am not interested in it. 

I just put the ball of light and use the Yamanaka techniques and watch Hiruko's life like a movie… but I skipped the boring parts. Like the part where he didn't have funds for his research but he 'coincidentally' won the Inuzuka Lottery.

….

Under a minute I read through it completely and when I do so I clutch the ball of light, shattering it into a million pieces as the memories disappear.

I look at Hiruko drooling on the floor, I just get close to him and put my foot on his head.

*burst*

Bursting it open like a watermelon, and killing Hiruko.

Well I got the Chimera Technique that I wanted from him. I am thankful to him, he did spend his life working for something and I got the results of his hard work.

Though I will need to modify the technique for myself. I thank you for all of your hard work… Hirumo. You will be remembered for it by me.

…..

....

Since that day one year has passed and here I am. At the age of twenty eight. I am currently in my office, looking at the young ninja in front of me. He has just recently graduated to Chunin… it is Itachi Uchiha.

….

-Itachi POV-

Though I keep a calm exterior look, I can't help but feel as if I am being read like an open book. 

Being in front of the Hokage really is something else. Even though I have already met the 3rd Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the old man gives a friendly vibe… contrary to the 5th Hokage, Yami Inuzuka… he has a whole different feel about him. I feel myself as if suffocating on air, his presence is overwhelming. No wonder he is known as the best Hokage Konoha has ever had.

I still remember when we first met… I asked him about the meaning of life… and he kicked me off a clif. A very drastic way to teach someone, but at the same time it is very efficient. It helped me understand that life is precious… and no one wants to die… not even me.

"So, Itachi..." Says the Hokage, pulling me  out of my thoughts. "You seem to be a Chunin now. At this rank there are a lot of options that you can choose to go through. As an Uchiha you could join the Uchiha Police, or you could just go through missions with a couple of squads till you are ready to be given the Jonin Rank, but there are also options like the T&I Devision, or the border patrol teams."

As he says that the Hokage has a serious look on his face as he gives me all of the possible options that I have for the future.

I think through all of this, but I already have chosen. Though the Hokage didn't say it, I know that there is one more choice… to join the Secret Division of Konoha… the Anbu Black Ops. 

"Hokage -sama… I am grateful for your guidance. But I would like to join the Anbu." As I say this I bow my head slightly to show respect to the Hokage and that I don't mean bad nor do I think of his advice as useless. 

When I look at him, I see that the Hokage has a strange smile on his face. He doesn't seem surprised at all by what I said. 

"I guess you have made up your mind haven't you." Says the Hokage as he takes out a paper and signs it. Handing it over to me.

I just nod at him and go over to take the paper. When I read it, my eyes widen as I read the last part of the paper.

————————————

Name: Itachi Uchiha

Rank: Chunin

Devision: Anbu

Role: Hokage's Personal Guard

————————————

I look at the Hokage and see a mischievous smile on his face. "I must say that you will make a good addition to the team… isn't that right guys?"

Suddenly out of the shadows dozens of Anbu come out. They just nod without saying anything, there are no defining characteristics for any of them. They even wear the same blank mask with the Inuzuka tattoos on the mask.

….

-General POV-

During this time on another place in Konoha, in the Jounin Restaurant, there are three people sitting together in their own booth. 

One of them is a female with black slightly spiky hair, she is a fair-skinned woman of slender build. She has long black untamed hair reaching her upper back, and very unique eyes that are red in colour, with an additional ring in them. She wears make-up consisting of red lipstick and purple eye shadow. Her  outfit consists of a red mesh armour blouse with only the right sleeve visible. Overall, this is very broad material which resembles bandages with a pattern on it similar to those of rose thorns. Her hands and upper thighs are also wrapped in bandages and she wears the Konoha forehead protector and regular shinobi sandals… she is Kurenai Yuhi. She is currently nineteen years old and is a well known Jonin of Konoha.

"Ahhh I hate it. Yami -sensei hasn't called me at all. Not to even talk for the last month. That is so annoying." Says Kurenai, and it is apparent that she has had a little too much to drink, shown so by the way she talks about Yami.
