All the Akatsuki members were gathered around, when he walked in. He was the new member for the Akatsuki. He had long black hair, tied in a ponytail. His face showed that he was a very serious person that probably never laughed. He had red eyes, the color of blood. Everyone had heard of him. He was the one who had killed almost everyone in the clan he belonged to, the Uchiha clan. The only person who he didn't kill was his younger brother, Sasuke Uchiha. But he had mentally scared Sasuke for life. Everybody called him heartless and cold. His name was Itachi Uchiha. When Pain heard what Itachi had done, he was immediately welcomed into the Akatsuki. None of the Akatsuki really cared about him, but they did want to know what kind of person this Itachi really was.

"Welcome, Itachi," Pain said, "this is, as you know, the Akatsuki Hideout. You may have expected more members, but this is everyone." That was when the Akatsuki group was still small. The members were Pain, Konan, Hidan, Kakuzu, Sasori, Kisame, and Zetsu. Orochimaru had already left, but they hadn't found Deidara yet. Kisame stepped forward. "This is your teammate, Kisame. Kisame, show Itachi around." Kisame and Itachi walked off. As Itachi walked past Hidan, Hidan felt strange. 'What the hell's up with this guy', thought Hidan.

"Okay, you can all go do what you want," said Pain, as he walked to his 'office'.

Hidan was walking to his room, when he saw Itachi. "Hello." Itachi spoke, for the first time since he joined the Akatsuki.

"Hi." Itachi half-smiled as he walked past Hidan. Hidan looked back, and watched Itachi walk away. Then he went into his room. There was a window in each room; Hidan could see other rooms out of his. He randomly stared out of the window in boredom. He then saw Itachi in a window. He was undoing his ponytail. Hidan stared at Itachi. 'What the hell am I doing?' Hidan thought, questioning his own actions. Days came and passed. Everyday, Hidan would secretly watch Itachi. Then Pain called for a meeting.

All the Akatsuki members were gathered around for the meeting. "Today, some of you will go get a ninja that I want to join the Akatsuki. His name is Deidara, he's a widely known terrorist. He will be partnered with you, Sasori." Sasori sighed. He had been enjoying not having a partner to bother him all the time. He hoped this Deidara person was nothing like Orochimaru. Oh, what torture that was!

Pain sent Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, Kisame, and Itachi to get Deidara. The finally found him, after a while of looking. "There's no way I'm joining the Akatsuki, un! You'll have to defeat me first!" He pointed to Itachi. They wondered if Itachi had the power to defeat Deidara, since they had never seen Itachi fight before. They're wonders were erased once the fight started. Hidan watched as Itachi kicked Deidara's ass. Itachi's sharingan was very powerful; it was now obvious how he had managed to destroy a whole clan in one night. Deidara fell to the ground, K.O'd.

When they returned to the hideout, Sasori and Deidara already hated each other. They fought about what 'true art' was. One time, Konan joined in, too: "True art is origami!" That pissed off both Deidara and Sasori. Meanwhile, Hidan continued to watch Itachi. It had become almost like a routine for Hidan. 'I wonder if he'll figure out someday…' is what Hidan always asked himself. The Akatsuki continued to grow, and Itachi never realized that Hidan was stalking him.
