Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 The letter of truth

What if Itachi uses his good heart to try to change the world with Sasuke? They are on the run after the massacre; they will be a good version of Madra and Izuna. Will Naruto and other main characters join? How will they shape their world with the Akatsuki and the hidden villages trying to stop them? Itachi x Mei

There will be two Konoha ninjas to join the Akatsuki other than Orochimaru.

This story will have many shocking turns and twists. I will not just stick to canon and not try to shake up things; this will be a completely different ninja village.

I will be updating at least one chapter every Sunday. If I finish more than one, then I will update all of them on Sunday.

Only one story at a time.

You will be amazed at how many of the main characters will power up.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of the characters in Naruto.

Ch2

Sasuke, will you come outside with me? I want to show you something. Yes, big brother, where are we going? You will find out when we go there. How am I supposed to explain to a 6-year-old that I am about to murder our clan? Sorry, Sasuke. I have to kill them to test my power; like, who would believe that? Man, this is going to be tough. Sasuke, this is the cliff that Shisui jumped off. I think that his death really gave me the power to write my own destiny. It is amazing how impactful one good friendship can be. Yeah, brother, I am sorry about Shisui's death, Itachi. Thank you, Sasuke. I actually brought you out here for a reason: just like Shisui's death, there are going to be more people to die. DIE? Itachi, I'm so glad that you want me to help you kill someone on a mission in the village. I will be a good ninja brother! I wonder what our nicknames will be; maybe the Sharingan Brothers, the scary 4 red-eyed duo, or ohh, what about the dual shinigami?? Itachi, I really like that one. Can we pleasssseee. No, Sasuke, it is much more serious than that. Sasuke, have you noticed that our father has been very angry lately? Yes, he has been; he talks about needing to change things, but I do not understand. Well, yes, he is trying to change things in a bad way. Sasuke Wait until I am done talking to reply. This is complex, and I do not want to miss any steps. There is tension between the Uchiha clan and Konoha. After the 9-tails attack, people think that an Uchiha controlled the 9-tailed fox because Madara Uchiha could do that. After that, the Uchiha clan started planning a coup d'état to overthrow the village. I was spying on the village for the Uchia clan and spying on the Uchia clan for the village. I have received instructions to kill the Uchiha clan for the village's safety. Brother! Why are you doing this? You can't kill Mom and Dad. I will be sad. My mom wakes up and cooks for me, and then she teaches me shuriken practice. Whenever I'm sad, Mom will come over to me and hold me tight and tell me that everything is okay. When I was 3, I thought there were monsters in my closet, and my mom said that she put them under a genjutsu to make them my friends. My mom also takes me to the store, and she always makes me laugh. I have so much fun with Mommy. And Dad may not love me as much as he loves you, but I know he just wants me to be like you. Itachi, please don't kill our family and our clan. I would be so sad. I am so sorry that you have to hear about this, but they are going to die no matter if I kill them or someone else will. I understand why you are crying, Sasuke, but you have to understand that there is a reason why I am telling you this. I am telling you this because I said I would not do it if you had to die. Me? Why Itachi? Why me? You will always be my little brother, and I will always be with you. I love you too, big brother. There is one more thing I will tell you: I will either give you 2 options. You will either be put into a genjutsu now that will wear off in 4 hours, which will not allow you to move and live in this village as the lone Uchiha. Option two is when I get back, and you will come with me to try to build a better world. You must know that this option will be much harder, and you have to give up your childish ways to reach our goals. Which one will you choose? I will choose to go with you brother. Also, congratulations Sasuke on awakening your sharingan.

This is the last family I have to kill before my own family. Each time I do this, I feel like a little bit of my humanity goes away with me. When he walked inside his family's house, he saw both of his mother and father on their knees with her back turned to the door. Itachi, we understand what you're doing, and even though we disagree with you, we are proud of your resolve. Please take care of Sasuke. Yes, father, I will. Your deaths will not be meaningless. I promise that I will build a better world for Sasuke and one that Shisui would be proud of. Your death will not be in vain! In my world this type of thing will never happen. Nobody will ever have to kill their own family. He pierced both of his parents' hearts, killing them both. He was crying at the memories of his parents. He then walked out of the house sad and a different man than when he walked in. All around him was death, but he would make all of their deaths meaningful.

Sasuke was watching what his brother was doing on one of the nearby hills. He felt extremely sad that all of his family was gone. That his clan was gone, that everybody that he grew up around was dead. And it was his brother who killed them all. Watching every single one of them die struck a chord in him that demoralized him and made him feel sadder than he's ever felt in his whole life. Then as he watched his brother enter his parents house, he felt his heart hitch, and his chest tightened. He kept thinking about his mother dying and how much he loved his mother and how he would never see her again.When he heard screaming inside the room, it saddened him more. When Itachi walked outside of the house, he felt his eyes start to hurt immensely. As Itachi got closer to his brother, he saw the pinwheel shape in his eye, and he was stunned. His brother had just awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Sasuke, we will talk about your eyes later. We must figure out what our next step is.

Itachi and Sasuke were In a tree. Itachi was thinking about what the next step should be. Itachi was thinking about how to get Sasuke out of the village with him and what to do with him. Without Sasuke, he would have been able to travel and move to wherever sounded best to him because he is an S-class ninja who can handle himself. Sasuke is 6 years old and may be gifted, but a genin would kill him because he does not even know how to use his eyes yet. So his next step must be a place that can protect his brother. To do that he needed to go to a new village with his brother. The tough part is that he will be branded as a traitor, and he did just murder his whole clan. He could imagine it now. Hi, my name is Itachi Uchia. I just murdered 150 people, but I promise all I want is peace. Can I join your village? That would not work at all; he needed a drastic perception change and to think strategically about this. So a small village may be too risky for Sasuke because he needs protection at his young age, so he is going to have to go to one of the big 5 nations. The Land of Earth was just in a war with Konoha, so that will not work. The sand village has a treaty with the leaf village, so they would just give him back to the leaf village. The land of lighting would just force him and Sasuke to breed and make red-eyed babies. The mist village is going through bloodline purges, but they would have some advantages. You have to pass through water to get there, which makes it harder for them to be tracked. The bloodline purges could give them the ability to side with people with bloodline limits that are being attacked, so 2 more people joining them would not hurt. He could use his ANBU skills to find the rebels camp. And there is no other place that he would rather join because fighting those purges would align with his goals to help make a better world. So now that he made the decision on where to go, he needed a way to fix his image issue. He then had a brilliant idea at the perfect time that would always be remembered as the letter of truth worldwide for years. The best part was he was going to deliver these letters around the world using his raven summons; he could deliver hundreds of letters during a week. This is the letter that he wrote.

My name is Itachi Uchiha. I am writing this to give a message to the world. I was ordered by Danzo Shimura to murder my clan, the Uchiha clan, tonight. The reason why is because my clan wanted to have a coup d'état in my village. I am writing this because I am choosing to no longer accept the world of lies we shinobi die in. My clan and the village system are full of depictions and lies. How many times have fathers, mothers, and siblings been killed during an ANBU mission and not come home for a proper burial to fit the world of lies? Governments lie every day to their citizens, and all it leads to is hatred and despair. I will be working to build a shinobi world where there is complete honesty about everything that is done. This will lead to a much greater sense of trust and understanding because the other villages will know what the real issues are. When one country goes to war with another, that is a result of an action from problems that have not been settled. The root cause of war is problems, and we have not structured our villages to solve these root problems. I am not saying that this will fix every issue, but we give too much as shinobi to our villages to be lied to by the people that we die for. I will be summoning hundreds of crows and flying them across the elemental nations. If you see one of my crows with an Uchiha symbol on it, call it to you, and it will give you my coordinates. I cannot promise anything to the people who join, but you will always know you fought for something that you thought was right.

ITACHI, UCHIHA

Summoning Jutsu! Then there was a puff of smoke. Take these to every village immediately. Sasuke I figured out where we are going to go. We are going to head to the Mist village because it is the best place to go. Yes brother, that sounds good with me. Okay, Sasuke It will be dangerous until we get to the Mist village, so no matter what I say. Promise me, okay? Yes, big brother.

Danzo-sama, yes, what do you have to report? Danzo Sama I have a letter to give you that has been passed and dispersed throughout the village and we think in other villages as well. Once Danzo saw the letter, he immediately was extremely upset. He trusted Itachi to protect the roots of Konoha, but now he was completely destroying Konoha. Everything that he had worked for his goals and his ambitions to become the Hokage all went down the drain. He was extremely upset, and he knew how bad of a situation he was in. Because it was so widely distributed, he knew that Hiruzen was going to put him in jail. And all of his schemes and plans were not options anymore. The first thing he has to do is send his top 25 Root agents to kill Itachi. And then with the rest of his root agents, he was going to have to escape Konoha.

Thank you for coming to this emergency meeting. All route agents will be escaping the village with me.Konoha has stabbed us in the back for the very last time. This village that we have protected from the shadows has betrayed us. Every single one of you will be coming with me. Anybody that is on missions will be sent back immediately. If anybody sees you, Itachi, kill him immediately. Also in the folder that you've been given, there's a list of 25 people to go find and kill that traitor.

Oh, Itachi You may have led to me having to leave Konoha. But there will be a day that this village will be in ashes. There will be a day when you all would've wished that you would've kept me in the shadows. As Danzo was getting ready to leave his base and escape, a white and green humanoid-looking character emerged from the ground. My master wishes to speak with you.

It was nighttime, and Itachi was running through the trees with Sasuke on his back. They had made it halfway to the land of water, and then Itachi sensed it; he sensed 25 people gaining on him. Itachi activated his Sharingan to gauge the chakra levels of the people that were chasing him, and he realized that five of them were low Jonin level, and 20 of them were Chunin level. He immediately started to think. He thought about the strategies to deal with the newcomers. He knew that if he went all out in a normal situation, he would be able to handle all of these enemies. But this was the worst possible situation because he had to protect his six-year-old brother. If they were able to grab a hold of his little brother and use him as leverage to not attack them, then it would be over. His usual tactic would be to take the time to find his enemies weaknesses and exploit them and use his strategic mind to do it very efficiently. But in this situation he needed to protect Sasuke. And to do that, yeah, to end the fight immediately, as soon as possible, so that they cannot come up with a counterplan to him. He then knew as they approached that he was going to have to go all out and overpower them from the beginning. Sasuke, do you remember what I said? You must listen to my every word. You must stay right behind me; wherever I move, you must go and stay right behind me. If you do not stay behind me, we will both die.

End of chapter two. How does Itachi deal with these ninjas?
