Hey everyone. It is AkatsukiFreak31, AK31, Hannah, etc. This is the first chapter of the rewrite for ITTOHF. I think it is already turning out to be better than the original. I have my new characters made.

For those of you who don't know why I am re-writing this, it is because I may be getting an original work published. I wrote a book and a publishing company is interested in it. Because Halo, Matt, Liam, and Drew, are in that book, I am rewriting the story to include new characters. Also, the original kind of sucks. This one will probably still suck in my opinion, but the other one has been so popular that I could not just get rid of the story.

I will keep you all updated on my book's progress and when it becomes available for sale, I will make sure you know where to get a copy.

So, on that note, I don't own Naruto. In fact, I actually stopped reading/watching it a long time ago.

Enjoy!

A tall man with orange hair and piercings covering his face sat at the head of the table with an air of annoyance and killer intent. Next to him was a woman with blue hair and an origami flower in her hair. She too was annoyed. Both wore black clouds with red clouds on the fabric.

"Where are the others, Konan?" The orange haired man asked.

"I do not know," she replied. "I can only assume that some of them have found themselves trouble."

As soon as the words left her mouth, a loud explosion could be heard echoing throughout their base. The boom was followed by shouting.

"Art is a bang, yeah!"

"Art is eternal, brat! Now come on, we are late for the meeting. I hate making people wait."

Shortly after the shouts, the door to the conference room opened and two men dressed in the same cloaks as the leaders walked in.

"Sorry for making you wait, Pein-sama," the smaller of the two spoke. He was a short man with the body outline of a beetle. His voice was gruff behind the thick mask. "We would have been here sooner, but Deidara was being an idiot as usual."

"Hey, un!" Deidara, the taller of the two men, shouted. His blond hair was long and covered half of his face. His arms were folded rather childishly. "I was making art. That's more than I can say for you, Danna."

Pein pressed his finger to his temple. "Enough you two. Take your seats. We are waiting for everyone else to arrive."

A couple of minutes after, a large plant-like-being fazed through the floor. Half of his skin was white while the other half was black and a large, venus flytrap took up most of his body.

"Zetsu, welcome," Konan nodded to the man.

The plant-man nodded and sat back in his seat to wait for the rest of the organization to arrive.

The knob to the door turned once more and a quiet duo stepped inside. One man was taller than everyone in the room. His skin was blue and he had gill markings on the sides of his faces. What stood out the most was the large, bandaged sword on his back.

"Sorry we are late," the man sighed. "We passed a dango shop on the way here."

The others seemed to understand what he meant as his partner, a pale-skinned man with raven hair and red eyes silently took a seat next to the plant-man.

"Itachi," Zetsu greeted.

"Hn," Itachi greeted in return. His partner took a seat next to him and set his sword against the wall behind them.

"Itachi, Kisame, I expect a status report on your mission when this meeting is over," Pein ordered.

"Yes sir," both men said.

"Where are the others?" Kisame asked to no one in particular.

"Hidan and Kakuzu were sent on their own mission. They were supposed to meet up with Tobi on their way back to the base," Konan explained.

Kisame grunted with a nod. More arguing could be heard from down the hall.

"There's the zombie duo," Kisame chuckled.

The door flew open and a dark-haired man with an orange masked skipped into the room. He took his seat on the other side of Zetsu, humming to himself all the way.

No one had time to acknowledge him because a duo followed him in. One was a pale man with pink eyes and silver hair. He wore no shirt under his cloak and a religious pendant could easily be seen around his neck. He was also carrying a severed arm. From the missing digit on his left side, everyone assumed that the arm was his.

"I don't want an explanation," Pein said as the two entered. "Kakuzu, reattach Hidan's arm and we will begin the meeting."

Kakuzu, the second tallest in the room, nodded. His skin was dark and his eyes were an emerald green. His mouth was covered by a mask that covered most of his head. He snatched Hidan's arm to quickly and painfully reattach it. Threads extended from his wrists and began to sew the arm back onto its host. All the while, Hidan was spewing curses and profanities.

"Fuck, that hurts."

"Stop whining," Kakuzu grumbled as he finished.

Hidan stretched and flexed his newly reattached arm and grinned.

Pein cleared his throat and all the chatter in the room died down. He looked to Konan and then the others before pulling a scroll from his sleeve.

"Everyone, I have news regarding that strange scroll Zetsu and Tobi found. It appears that the scroll contains directions to a powerful jutsu that enables the castors to travel to a different world. Most of the hand signs seem to be fabricated and the jutsu does not specify which world the user would be going to. I have thought long and hard about it, and I feel as though the scroll could be beneficial to us. What are your thoughts?"

Tobi crossed his arms and pouted. "Tobi wants to try the jutsu."

Deidara rolled his eyes at the masked man. "It would be a waste of our time, hm."

Kisame's gaze turned to Deidara, "What if this jutsu is real? Think of how much chaos we could cause in another world." He gave his younger associate a toothy grin.

Hidan cackled to himself. "I agree with Fish Face. Jashin would love the fucking chaos."

"There would also be the risks involved," Sasori said. "If we choose to go about this carelessly, it could backfire. We don't know what world it will send us to."

"Sasori is right," Itachi nodded. "It is not known how many worlds exist beyond our own or what they may hold."

Kakuzu nodded as well. "Yes, but it is possible that we could be sent to a world that knows of other worlds. If that is the case, it could help the organization and our own goals."

Pein sighed as the organization began talking amongst themselves about this strange, new jutsu. He rubbed his temples with his hand as he thought of the jutsu's possibilities. They were all right. The jutsu had its risks, but it also had its benefits. There was also the chance that the entire thing was fake.

"We'll try the justu tomorrow. In the meantime, I want you all to save your chakra and memorize the hand signs needed for preforming this jutsu," Pein said.

The rest of the meeting was spent teaching the hand signs for the jutsu. Most of them figured out the pattern easily, while others took more time.

"That is enough," Pein said as he stood. "Practice tonight and in the morning, we will do the jutsu. It requires quite the amount of chakra. I will see you all here tomorrow morning."

With that, Pein and Konan vanished.
