Itachi remembered how it was.

He remembered liking the sunlight instead of fearing it,

He remembered enjoying the rain instead of using it as a refuge from his death.

He remembered liking the taste of fruits and sweets, instead of the craving of the tangy blood of the human.

He remembered growing and changing.

He remembered having feelings

He remembered being mortal.

And how he wished it had never changed.

He wished The Curse had never happened.

He wished no one from the clan had died.

He wished he wasn't the only one who could tolerate the virus.

He wished Sasuke hadn't lived the last of his immortal life believing it was his fault.

He wished Sasuke hadn't died at all.

He truly wished Sasuke hadn't left him with this lonely curse.

He wished that tag along girl called Karin hadn't left him with a prophecy before she killed herself to be with Sasuke,

"You'll regret this one day Itachi!You'll find someone who means as much to you as Sasuke did to me!Then!Oh then!You'll feel the pain I feel as she's ripped from you before you fully realize how important she really is!Then you'll live, and yes my dear you will live on, remembering how it was and how you will never be the same!"

Itachi remembered feeling as though he had run into a brick wall after her words, and the world had turned white for a short while. Then when he was able to speak and see again, it hit him.

Sasuke was dead.

Karin was dead.

And once again he was all alone.

500 years and it hadn't changed one bit.

The smell of iron in the air,

The burning of his eyes as their ability took in every vivid detail of their tragic death,

The roaring in his ears as he came to the realization as the last two people left on the earth that he cared about were gone,

The taste of bile at the back of his throat as what his actions had done came into reality,

And the stabbing in his chest as his heart froze all his emotions inside himself so that it might stop hurting.

It never truly worked though…

500 years…

He never thought it would take this long for his demise to come across…

He grunted as the bullet slammed into his left shoulder and then two more in his right arm and leg, spinning him backward to make hard contact with a tall stone building.

He raised his gleaming red eyes upward with a smirk and chuckled painfully as the men became unnerved and ran from the alleyway they had dragged him into. He winced as he tried to stand but then sank downward again with a sigh.

The red flickered in his eyes a few more moments before disappearing and leaving him with his traditional dark gray.

He coughed lightly. The first bullet had been dangerously close to his heart.

Itachi realized this was the end for him.

He could feel his body and immortality working to push the offending metal objects from his body, but he realized how serious these injuries were, even if they didn't.

He laughed hollowly,

"Well Karin… I guess… you were wrong…" He closed his heavy lidded eyes and let his head drop onto his chest as darkness consumed him.

Just as he always wanted.

Bundyangel: Well! I'm hoping you liked the prologue to my first SakuraXItachi chapter story.

Warning to those of you. I rated this story as a M for a reason. This story will contain Lemons and I'm going to try my best at it.

If you don't like sexual scenes, (I WILL warn you when ones coming up), or if it offends you then don't read it.

Because I want to write one and this story kind of requires it.

I'm not sending this story threw my Beta cause I want it up, like NOW! But if you see any mistakes, please give me a yell in the reviews XD

There will be more information in the next part. As I said this IS just the Prologue.

See ya!
