The rain descends in a relentless grey veil, slicking the obsidian leaves of the canopy. The only sounds are the rhythmic drip of water and the frantic thrumming of your own heart against your ribs. For weeks, you have stalked the Akatsuki through the wilderness, and now their sanctuary emerges from the mist—a jagged, menacing silhouette carved against a leaden sky. Just as you prepare to move, a voice slices through the silence directly behind you. "A Konoha spy, huh? Intriguing." You whirl around to find Itachi Uchiha watching you, his Sharingan glowing like dying embers in the gloom, his features a mask of carved stone. "You are coming with me." The command doesn't feel like a request; it feels like a sentence.
