"Sasuke... are you okay...?"

Shisui asks, being worried about his cousin.

After having a small discussion in itachi's room, they decided to tell sasuke what had happened. And now, all three of them are in his room, explaining everything.

Yuri has stopped crying, but her eyes are all puffy because of the tears, and her sobbing can still be heard.

Meanwhile, itachi is unable to say anything. He was the one who suggested that they tell sasuke, and he was the one who explained everything, so he chooses to stay quiet now.

It's painful for him too.

"This is all ridiculous."

Sasuke calmly spits those words, causing all three of them to startle.

Why is he so calm?!

"Do you think (name) would actually leave just because of a few words from that old geezer?"

No answers.

"Well, I don't think so. I know her, more than any of you. She is not the type that gives up easily, no matter how hard the obstacles are. Sometimes, her persistence can get really annoying. Even madara would retire. Therefore, believe me. She did not run away."

When you think of it that way... it somehow makes sense...

If she was brave enough to step into the uchiha village, then she would not back off so easily, right?

So why is she gone?

What happened to her?

"If what you're saying is true, sasuke... then where is she?"

Itachi asks, being curious now.

Sasuke just keeps his mouth shut, simply because he also doesn't know the answer.

"You don't think..."

Yuri suddenly speaks. Itachi immediately changes his attention towards her.

"What is it, yuri?"

The girl looks at her curious eldest brother.

"It's not possible that (name)... is kidnapped, right...?"

Sasuke, itachi and shisui freeze in shock.

"I-i mean... grandpa wouldn't do something like that... right...?"

"No. It's possible."

Itachi answers.

"Our grandfather is the type of man that will do anything to get what he wants. Plus, it is suspicious enough that he wants to do the meeting so soon, even when not everyone actually knows that (name) is gone. He says that the engagement will be decided after a week, but then, it's only been three days since the first meeting. I bet he wants to hide something."

Shisui and sasuke also tries to come up with more theories. What possibilities are there?

"Oh!"

Shisui figures something out.

"It's possible that he acts so fast because he doesn't want us to find (name), right? I mean, if he does things slowly, then..."

"All his crimes will be revealed. People will lose faith in him."

Sasuke interjects.

"There's no doubt about it. If he is so worried, and if this is true, then (name) is still somewhere in this village. That's why he moved so fast. Plus, it won't be possible that he can move (name) so far since morning. We need to find her, and revealed everything. If people knows that he did a crime, they will lose faith in him. We can throw him out of the throne. We can win this."
