[ Once the treat has been passed on, Itachi takes an unhurried step back to give her that small bit of breathing room. Both because he knows what his presence means to most, and because she may have been crowded in with people during work.

Not many knew about the truth behind the Uchiha Clan massacre, even when he last spoke to Naruto on the matter during the war. Yet, he sees that she makes no move to defend herself against it, or feel that he's poisoned the food that Sakura is now eating. Hard though it might have been out here on the boardwalk with so many witnesses, but not impossible for a shinobi of his caliber. So perhaps the last original member of Team Seven had been told the truth by one of them, or something much bigger has happened with the knowledge of all that transpired between the village and the Clan.

Itachi can't see the crest from here, nor is he looking for it in any kind of reflection that might be available. He's too interested in her own reaction to his presence to dig for that detail. ]


We met on the beach shortly after I washed ashore. He told me that it has been nearly four years since we last saw each other, between this place and our world.
