Prologue / Chapter One Rated T / M

It was not the first time Hikari had been to this place, to Akatsuki headquarters. She'd been here a few years prior when she was a lot younger and only developing her skills as a ninja at Chuunin level. Her family had told her she'd have to return because she was valued by the members of Akatsuki, but little did she know that it would lead her into very dangerous territory and even the realms of death…

Her thin and pallid body sat there in the poorly lit room shivering at the coolness and dampness of the place. She remembered being here before, remembered seeing the people clad in black and red cloaks with powerful auras radiating from them. Cerise eyes and dark brown hair that could be classed as black; she wasn't a usual 15-year-old. Out of interest, she'd tried to learn more about Akatsuki but had only found that they were a criminal organisation made up of currently nine S-Rank ninja.

"Leader-sama, she is in here. The man dropped her off this morning," a voice that she was too familiar with spoke. She couldn't put a name to him but she knew she'd met him from the years prior.

The girl saw three shadowy figures enter the room and suddenly their presences were made clear by their power, "Good work, Itachi-sama, Kisame-sama," the person obviously the leader replied.

The two figures bowed and walked in closer to her along with 'Leader-sama'. She could barely see them though the candles did give a little bit of light. She clung closer to the edge of the metal seat she was sat on. The one the girl recognised as Itachi chuckled a little seeing her reaction.

"Do not worry child, you should be ok if you obey us."

The 'should' be ok did not prove to be helpful for the girl and in her mind she could only imagine the horrible scenarios she would be put into.

"We paid your father two thousand Yen and that's not much mind you," Itachi laughed again, "so little one, what is your name?"

The girl sat uncomfortably for a while until the eighteen-year-old came up to her and held her face close to his, "Hikari," she replied, frightened to the depths of her soul.

It was not a good situation to be in, nor did she actually think the situations would get better as Itachi and the shark-faced Kisame dragged her down a long corridor. She feared for what they were going to do.

Flashback

"Do as you please with her for now, Itachi. Kisame, I'd like you to go on a mission though," he then smirked handing a scroll over to the taller Akatsuki member.

"Itachi-san, where are you taking me?" Hikari asked, voice trembling as Kisame left them.

The Sharingan user stared at her, "To my room. You'll be staying with me for quite some while, until we are ready," was his monotone reply.

They came to a door that read 'Uchiha Itachi' and the elder ninja quickly opened it and flung the girl inside.

"You'll do as I say, or else," he warned.

Hikari began to cry and hiccupped on her tears, "Y-yes, Itachi-san."

The older ninja pointed her towards a chair and told her to sit down whilst he took a shower and to not move an inch whilst he was gone. Hikari listened to the running water and the slight sound of humming coming from the male inside. She tried to unnerve herself looking at the bag he'd also thrown at her before going into the shower. He'd said to change into what was in there. She carefully took out a black miniskirt, white shirt with black fishnet to wear underneath and a black tie and fishnet tights along with a pair of small black boots with ruby laces.


Sorry it was short, but it is only a prologue! Interesting in the next few chapters hopefully and I hope you review. It may become the rating I rated it as later on.
