In a vampire fanfiction, their relationship might be a tumultuous one. There could be many obstacles in their way. For instance, the vampire society they live in might not accept their relationship. But through their shared experiences, like fighting against a common enemy or helping other vampires in need, they could grow closer and form a strong bond that defies the odds.
As the story progresses, they may find common ground. Maybe they both have a goal related to the Akatsuki's activities that aligns them. Itachi's past and his reasons for being in the Akatsuki could be revealed to Sakura, and she might start to see him in a different light. For instance, if she learns about his true motives to protect the village, she could develop a new - found respect for him. This could lead to a deeper connection and their relationship could evolve from mere acquaintances to friends or even something more in some fanfictions.
Their relationship could start as a rivalry. Sakura is known for her tenacity, and Itachi is highly intelligent. They might compete in class rankings or in some school sports. But during this rivalry, they start to respect each other's abilities. For example, Sakura might notice how Itachi is always calm under pressure during a track and field event. And Itachi might see how Sakura never gives up even when she's behind in a test score. This respect could then turn into friendship as they start to study together or train together. Eventually, it could lead to a romantic relationship as they realize they have more in common than they thought.
Their relationship could start as a reluctant partnership. Itachi is used to working alone, and Sakura is initially in awe of Itachi's power. But as they face the challenges of the time - travel situation together, they begin to trust each other. For example, when dealing with threats in the past, they rely on each other's skills. Sakura's medical ninjutsu saves Itachi from a near - fatal wound, and Itachi's combat abilities protect Sakura from dangerous enemies.
There could also be a more friendly and equal - footing relationship. They might bond over shared interests outside of combat, like a love for a certain type of flower in the village or a particular kind of food. This would bring them closer together on a personal level. Itachi, who is usually reserved, might open up more around Sakura and Shisui, and they could form a tight - knit group of friends who support each other through the difficulties in the shinobi world.
Itachi is a very complex and reserved character, while Sakura is strong - willed. Their relationship could start with Itachi being somewhat of a mentor to Sakura in terms of combat strategy. Sakura would be intrigued by Itachi's calm and calculating nature. As they spend more time together, Sakura might start to see the softer side of Itachi that he hides from most, and this could lead to a deeper connection.
The relationship could start off rocky. Kushina might be cautious around Sakura due to her being a vampire. But as they interact more, they could start to trust each other. For example, if they are in a fight against a common enemy, they would see each other's capabilities. Sakura might save Kushina with her vampire speed, and Kushina could then start to see Sakura in a new light.
In this scenario, Sakura would be horrified. Her view of Itachi would turn from perhaps a neutral or even positive view (if she had any such view in the fanfiction world) to one of pure hatred. Their relationship would become one of enmity. Itachi using her as a shield would be a huge violation of trust and basic human decency, so she might even try to expose his actions to the other characters, causing a rift in the overall story's character dynamics.
At first, it could be a bit awkward. Sarada has only heard stories about Itachi. But as they start to interact, they might develop a mentor - mentee relationship. Itachi could see Sarada's potential and start to guide her.
Itachi would be very strict in Naruto's training, but also very caring. Naruto would look up to Itachi and try to learn as much as he can from him. As Naruto grows, he might start to have his own ideas which could sometimes clash with Itachi's. But through communication and understanding, their relationship would become deeper. Itachi would share his past experiences with Naruto, which would make Naruto understand the complexity of the ninja world better, and in return, Naruto's innocent and determined nature would slowly change Itachi, making him more hopeful about the future of the ninja world.
At first, it might be filled with suspicion. Naruto, being the Hokage, would be cautious of Itachi's past actions as an Anbu. But as they start to interact more, Naruto might see the good in Itachi that Sasuke saw. Itachi, on the other hand, would respect Naruto's position as Hokage and his power to bring change. Slowly, they could develop a mutual understanding and respect.
