Chapter 1

Pein

I sat at the desk going over paperwork and bills. I would have had Kakuzu do it but Hidan and him were off on a mission. I let out an exhausted sigh. I continued with the papers, when suddenly my pen ran out of ink. "Grr… how dare you run out of ink when god is using you…" I muttered as I stood up, throwing the pen in the garbage. I looked around for another pen for a while but was unsuccessful. I let out another sigh as I continued looking. I eventually found a pen in a glass by the window. I decided to look outside. It wasn't surprising to see that it was raining, of course it was coming down harder tonight than it had in the last month… I sighed as I closed the curtain again. I walked back over to the desk and sat down to do another stack of paperwork. I heard thunder and I just hung my head over the papers. I heard a knock at the door. "Come on in Konan…" I called, not looking up from the sheets. There was no response. I stood up and walked to the door. I opened it to find no one. I was about to turn around and go back to my work when I heard pounding at a door. I walked down the halls and concluded it wasn't form any of the rooms. "No one's home anyway…" I mumbled as I walked towards the front door. There was another pounding and I was sure that I had found the source now. I opened the door to see something that caught me entirely off guard. In front of me was a girl. She had long brown hair, that stretched down to her waist. She had a mini-tank, with fishnet from the inner part where her arms reached the rest of her torso to her neck, and cut off where the curves started. She had low-cut pants that went from her hips to right below her knees. She was soaking and looked weak. I was about to close the door when she leaned in the door frame. I gave her a glare, but for some reason she sent me a smile. "Yahiko…" She said weakly before she fell forward into the base. I was shocked, but managed to catch her. I carried her into the living room and placed her on the couch. We'd have to interrogate her later…
