Chapter 1

I paced around my apartment, furious that they won't even let me fight in this one. See, word of Akatsuki had spread like wild fire across Suna, not that it scared me cause I can kick those guys asses any day. But stupid overprotective Suna told me to stay at home. I mean I could understand why. I'm one of the most valuable ninjas in Sand and if I were to be taken my Akatuski, in all words... it would suck. But I AM a ninja, I can protect myself.

Sighing in defeat, I crashed face down on my bed, my long [place hair color here] hair fanning out across the sheets.

"This is bullshit." I said just as I heard the first explosion a couple miles away from my house. Furious and concerned, I looked out the window to see what I dreaded the most.

I quickly grabbed my katana and strapped it to my back. I sat on the windowsill and looked back at my bedroom door. No way was I going through the front door, too many Jounin keeping watch. I jumped from my window down to the streets. I ran through the streets, explosions going off all around me. 'Lord Kazekage is in danger, I have to help him...' I thought.

Running toward the direction of the explosion, I was met with civilians running frantically in the opposite direction, screaming like sissies. But it wasn't until I got there that I finally understood. There was an empty space around 5 miles, which had a hole the size of a crater. Now I was a little stunned at the power of the attack. Things were getting crazier by the second as medic nin appeared to tend to the injured people. See, this is what happens when they don't let me fight. I jumped onto the tops of the buildings, finally catching a glimpse of fire red hair on top of the Kage building. Gaara...

I watched Gaara for a minute then glanced to the sky, where a giant clay bird flew. "What the hell? A clay bird?" I ducked down slightly when another explosion went off. Turning to jump, I was met with a smiling maniac, this blue eyes opened wide and holding a clay bird. Anger filled my features.

"Who are you and why are you in my village!?" I yelled at him, my hands slowly showing claws.

"It looks like I found the jinchuriki, yeah." He said smirking. I clenched my fists and my claws dug into the palms.

"So you're part of the Akatsuki? After the tailed demons... Everyone has been trying to keep me safe from you guys when I'm not the only demon in the village." I said not really talking to the man anymore.

"Hn. Enough talk." I lunged at him, katana at hand. My mood got darker when he swiftly moved out of the way, but not before I snipped off a few of those herbal essence locks. Deidara's eyes widened as he made a step back, finally changing to a fighting stance [i] Glad to know he sees me as a threat. [/i] Sand started to swivel around me, forming a circle of protection as I smiled, knowing Gaara was assisting me wherever he was. Now forcing chakra into my sword, I made another lunge, but faked a left turn and made a deep gash in Deidara's right arm. The sand following me as I moved, keeping away from the action but surely useable if needed. He sucked his teeth and pulled his hand into his pouch.

"What? Give up already?" My hair turned white as I slowly poured more chakra from my demon. Deidara's wicked smirk returned as he now took his hands out of his pockets, seeming to have something in his hand. He sped towards me, this time sand pushing him a couple feet back as my sword aimed to his head. Just then I saw a clay bird fly near me and before I could think of what the hell it is, it blew up and made a medical attention worthy gash on my left thigh. [i]Ah Shit...[/i]

I looked from the gash to Deidara. I glared angrily at him and growled. "Now who's giving up?" He asked with a wild smirk. I straightened up and clenched my fists. White chakra formed around me. White markings appeared on my sword and my nails had grown to extremely sharp claws. I ran at him with my katana only for it to be unmovable, like some unknown force holding it still. A scary puppet-like creature appeared next to Deidara and soon I found that my entire body was frozen. A growl escaped my throat.

"Sasori, I told you I finish her by myself, un." A frown shown on Deidara's face, well what was visible from his long blonde hair. I struggled as I felt invisible ropes keep me in a frozen-like state. Sasori just moved his fingers, prying the sword away from my grasp, not that I could fight at this point anyway.

"You were taking too long. You know how I feel about time." The puppet mumbled as Deidara chuckled and walked toward me.

"Don't you dare!" I yelled and glared daggers at him. He walked behind me and whispered 'Sleep tight' right before I felt his fingers hit my pressure points. I blacked out, not knowing what happened.


I woke up in a dark cold room, instantly regretting moving when I felt the sharp pain in my neck. The room was dark in all aspects, with dark black carpeting and crimson shades on both on the curtains and the sheets I was currently wrapped in. I rubbed my neck where Deidara had hit my pressure points. Growling, I slowly remembering what had happened.

"Damn that stupid mother f--" I stopped when I heard someone open a door.

And that's when I saw the most beautiful and most frightening person in all my years of shinobi. The man that stood at the door had a jet-black hair and ruby red eyes. His lean but muscular frame leaned against the doorframe and his eyebrow slightly rose when he noticed my staring. My eyes traveled right back to those eyes, so similar to my own but even more unique with a blood red color and dark black specs. His silence brought a sense of awkwardness to the room.

"And who the fuck are you?" But I was in the least bit angry. Who can be angry when a gorgeous man and supposed friend of your captives walks in your room? I know I can't.

"My name is of no concern to you, girl." He said sounding slightly annoyed. I sighed and stared down for a moment. I looked back up at him. "Then why did you come here if you didn't want to tell me your name?" I asked. "I only came here because it was an order. It was my turn to keep an eye on you." He said.

"Would you like to tell me why I'm here?" I shifted uncomfortably under his gaze as I made an attempt to get out of bed. Immediately I was against the wall with Mr. Sexy inches away from me, my hands captured above me.

"Where do you think your going?" His piercing red eyes bore on mine as I forced myself to look away from his hypnotic gaze, afraid I'll get a headache from the pools of red.

"Oh Kami, I was stretching. Calm down. Why would I try to make an escape with my chakra levels so low. I'm not that stupid." Now I was the one to be annoyed and he just let go of me, turning around as he sat in the chair a few feet across from the bed. The mysterious man kept his back to me, but I'm sure he is perfectly capable of attacking me again if I tried anything funny. "Are you going to answer my question now?" He made a 'Hn' sound and I was starting to think that he's a stupid sexy bastard.

"Let's go. Go ask your stupid questions to Leader."

I looked at him as if he wasn't being serious. "You sure? You're not going to attack me for getting out of bed again?" I asked sounding slightly pissed off even though I wasn't really that mad at him.

"I'm only going to be taking you to Leader so you can ask your damn questions. After that I'm bringing you right back here." He said. I sighed and stood up, carefully making sure he wouldn't come at me like he did the first time. Looking down at myself for the first time since I woke up, I realized my black dress was still intact and my hair was exceptional. He stood up from his chair and grabbed my arm. He led me out of the room forcefully like I was being dragged.

Walking into the hallways, I noticed the color scheme didn't change too much. Black was the primary color while the floors were wooden. We walked down a long hallway, with him finally releasing his death grip on my arm as we neared the large steel door at the end. He opened the door, tossing me inside before giving me one last look, which went from my top of my purple hair down my body and back up. I gave him a dirty glare before I forcibly closed the door on him.

"Please. Have a seat." The deep voice startled me as I turned around to meet another pair of hypnotic eyes, but these were a dull grey color. To put it bluntly, he was scary. Fire orange hair sprouted on his head while piercings filled everywhere else. Fearing for his rage, I sat down.

"It's obvious that you have questions. Everyone usually does. So how about you start with the one on the top of your head." The man said seeming not to 'evil' at the moment. I gulped.

"Um... Well first... Why did you guys take me first...? Why not lord Kazekage? It's not that I hate him or anything, I'm just wondering...." I said seeming a bit too quiet from fear.

"That was... a misunderstanding on their part. Our prime objective was to capture the jinchuriki, but I didn't notice there were more than one of Sunagakure." I gave him a confused face, trying to understand what he was saying.

"So in other words, you all think I'm a jinchuriki?" I said trying to hold in a laugh. He nodded, eyes squinting at my reaction. "Well yes It's true that I have a demon inside me, but it's none the tailed beasts."

"Are you so sure about that?" He asked. "Your demon. It's a tiger right? As in the 'eleven tailed' tiger."

My eyes narrowed. "You're saying that I really am a jinchuriki? But I never made it past one tail." I said. But then my heart skipped a beat. Stupid Seiko, the jinchuriki's all die in the hands of Akatsuki.

"Hn, well you could be special case. Either way, your demon is not exactly the type of power were looking to extract..." The word sent a shiver through my body went thankfully went unnoticed by Leader. "You could still be a great necessity." I realized what he was implying. My joining of Akatsuki and half of me was against it, half of me was saying 'hell, why not'.

"Let me re-phrase that. Either you join or we dispose of you."

I bit my thumb nail, thinking. "I guess I really have no choice." I muttered. "I'll join as long as I don't catch any of your members going through my stuff or looking at me in any way I don't like." I said sounding a little courageous. Pein slightly smirked and shrugged.

"I don't make any promises. You are going to be the 2nd woman here. One of which is off limits." Possessiveness appeared in his voice and I inwardly smirked,

"One more question. Who are you? As in your name?" I tucked some of my silky hair behind my ear, unknowingly allowing a better view to my chest. Being male of course, he looked down for a second before his eyes found mine again. I titled my head, giving my best innocent look. First impressions are everything and I'll just kick anyone's ass if they try anything smart.

"Pein. You can call me Pein-sama." I nodded and got up from the very comfortable chair, bowing slightly in respect. I opening the heavy door and was met with a rough hand on my arm. I growled, slightly shocking Itachi.

"Okay listen up. I am a part of your organization now and I demand some respect. No more roughly grabbing me. I can walk perfectly fine thank you very much." I said with a full out glare and his eyes rose in shock before a smirk appeared on his face.

"Hn. Feisty." That handsome face looked even more dazzling as he looked down at me. "Uchiha Itachi." He said giving me the answer to my previous question before he walked me back to my room.

I smiled slightly. "Uchiha Itachi. Nice name. I'm Nariko Seiko." I said to him formally. "So, now that I am in the organization... Do I get a better room than the place I woke up?" I asked. Itachi looked down at me and raised an eyebrow.

"Are you saying that my room's not good enough for you?" The deepness of his voice filled my ears as my eyes widened in shock. An amused look washed over his features. I quickly shook my head, a nervous smile on my face.

"No no! It's fine. Just that, your male and there's only one bed..." His smirk seemed to grow and a dark look started to grow.

"Well, take a look at the other members, come back and tell me whose room you'd rather sleep in." And he left the room, leaving me to wander through the halls.

I blinked and bit my thumbnail. 'Great, he left me alone... To wander...' I thought. "Does he know how bad of an idea that is!?" I shouted to myself. I sighed and walked down the hall with my hands in the tight pockets in my black mini dress. "...Hey... Where's my katana....?" I asked myself.

Finding the answer to my questions, I saw my sword being played with in the hands of a hooded figure with strings attached to his face. I walked into the living room and that when the madness started.

"Hidan, come here a second. How much you think this is worth?" The katana shone in his hands and he brushed a finger down the smooth metal. A white haired man got up from the couch and walked up to the man holding my katana.

"How the fuck am I supposed to know? You're the mother fucking expert at numbers." He scoffed his friend off and I loudly cleared my throat. They both turned their heads toward me and made large grins at me. "Hey babe. How are you?" Hidan's eyes were fixed on my boobs while the other man stared at my legs. They walked closer to me and I glared in a warning.

"Watch it! I'm not your eye candy! And I would love to have my katana back, before things got out of hand." I had a dangerous tone to my voice and it didn't go undetected by the men.

But Hidan kept walking toward me with that perverted/murderous smile on his face. I slightly bent my knees and let my fangs show through my crooked smirk. He slightly stopped his movements but ran full speed toward me, before I stepped out of the way. My legs kicked him in the stomach while I snatched the sword away from the other man's surprised form. Settling in one of the couches, I crossed my legs and ran my tongue across the smooth part of my sword.

"Tch, what kind of fighters are you?" And just before things were getting good, the blonde haired bastard entered the room.

I glared at him and growled. I stood up from the couch and was instantly in front of the blonde, pointing my katana at his neck. "You're the stupid mother fucking bastard that knocked me out. Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill you." I said, my claws gripping the handle of my katana tightly.

"I-i. It was a mission, un." My sword touched the skin of neck before I felt an arm around my waist pulled me backward.

"Deidara, learn to defend yourself. She could have killed you." A deep voice said behind me as the sword was once again taken out of my hand. "Your too dangerous with a sword. I'll hold onto this for now." Itachi let go of my waist and I turned around quickly to get it back from him but was startled by the fact that there were now a lot more people in the room that there was a few seconds ago. Itachi stood next to me as everyone either sat down or leaned against the wall.

"Babe, sorry we got off on the wrong foot. I'm Hidan." The grey haired perverted ninja with pink eyes spoke to me while continuing to eye me. I gave him a glare. Kakuzu, Kisame, Sasori, Tobi, Zetzu and Konan all introduced themselves. I instantly took a liking to Konan, I mean who wouldn't? She's so beautiful with her blue hair and that pretty rose resting atop her hair, and I admired her for being able to stay in a house full of men for so long without losing her sanity.

"Um... Yeah... Nice to meet you guys... I'm Seiko..." I said quietly. Sure I was acting different than my usual self at the moment. Who wouldn't, being surrounded by new people and all. So far I would have to say that my only friends here will probably be Itachi and Konan, but that's it. I looked at Itachi. "Can I have my katana back now?" I asked innocently.

He shook his head, "When you learn to fight without it, then I'll give it back."

"I can fight without it. Easily... It's just.... It's my... Favorite... Thing to fight with..." I said trying to convince him to give my favorite katana back. Itachi just gave the slightest smirk and put the katana in the inside of his cloak.

"There are more important things to argue about." Sasori, the man who looked to be 16 but spoke like he was 55, spoke as he rose up to get an apple from the kitchen. Itachi nodded, and added in his own input, "Initiation process, her uniform..."

"Wait whoa." I coughed on an invisible object stuck in my throat. "No one told me about initiation." Deidara just grinned and mumbled a 'Doubt she'll pass anyway' and just like that, he was on the floor, me on top of him, one of my hands tightly gripping his hair and the other a fist threatening to meet his face. "Say what?" I heard a picture snap behind me and Hidan crazy laughter.

"Nice ass babe." It was then that my hands started growing claws and I growled. Giving Deidara one last glare and looking away from his very apologetic face and I stalked toward Hidan.

"I have a fucking name! Seiko. Repeat after me, Seiko!" His grin infuriating me even more and I took one claw to quickly rip the Polaroid picture in half. And then I smirked putting my hands on his chest. "And that's too bad. Because I have to choose whose room I want to sleep in." Hidan's face turned to horror when I turned toward Itachi. "I pick Uchiha."

"How can you choose to stay the fucking Uchiha!?" Hidan asked loudly. I growled at him. "Because he's the only guy here who isn't perverted." I said. "But..." Hidan started until I cut him off. "No buts, Itachi said that I could choose who I wanted to stay with. And I choose him." Not bothering to look at Itachi to see his reaction since he was the one that offered anyway, I walked to the nearest window.

"Where... are we exactly?" Konan stood up and walked to the kitchen.

"Rain. Seiko, come help me in the kitchen. We have mouths to feed." And at that all the men made a single file line toward the dining room, probably some home training that Konan practiced with Deidara in the front and Itachi in the back. I smiled and nodded while I went to help her with the cooking.

An hour later.

As we served the food in plates, Konan put a hand on my shoulder.

"If you think you've seen Akatsuki at its worst, then your mistaken. This is Akatsuki at its worst. If you don't give them they're plates at exactly the same time, there will be a fight." She smirked at me. I gave her a crazy look.

"How are we supposed to do that?" She made a hand sign and dispersed pieces of paper from herself and added chakra under it to keep it afloat. Placing the plates on top of the paper, she sends then into the dinning room, immediately hearing the roar of excitement upon seeing the plates. "Wow, I'm impressed." Konan smiled and poured 10 cups of juice.

"Try putting your chakra under the cups." I nodded and focused hard, putting some of my chakra underneath one cup. Satisfied that it floats, I did the same to the other 9, and walked in the room concentrating on keeping the cups afloat and perfectly landing in the spots for the men. They all smiled and cheered as Itachi put his head in his hands, showing a slightly impressed look. I glanced at him and went back in the kitchen with Konan to get our plates.

"You know, I've only been here for one day and I pretty much hate everyone except you and Itachi." I said to Konan as we walked back into the dining room. "I can tell. The guys won't show you any respect until you show them whose boss. And believe me. It's extremely hard." Konan said. She took a seat beside Pein and I took a seat beside her. There wasn't much to talk about since the guys were too loud to even hear over.

Across the table, I caught Itachi staring at me and I glanced at him before looking away. Feeling awkward again I took a sip of my juice, still feeling the heavy stare those eyes had on me and this time I stared back. His head tilted to the side, lying more comfortably in his hand, his eyes never leaving mine. Slowly I felt myself drifting away into his eyes, forgetting where I was for a second until I heard someone scream my name.

"Seiko!" Pein called me and I slightly jumped at the sound, averting my eyes toward him. At the corner of my eye I saw Itachi's smirk. Ugh, bastard. "You will train briefly with everyone here, learning they're skills and perfecting your own. At the end, you will fight Itachi for your initiation." I hand trembled at the thought of fighting Itachi. He seemed so powerful. Pein seemed to catch my reaction. "It's not a fight to the death. Were just testing your skills." I sighed, but then I felt another set of eyes on me. I turned to see Hidan staring intently at my boobs. Within a second, my fork flew across the table and stabbed him in the cheek.

"Stop staring at what you can't have."
