I saw one last scroll in the back.

I picked up to see if it would be useful as well. When I opened it all I was able to understand was the words: I.L.Y jutsu. I've never heard of that jutsu before, the hand signs as well, they were strange. They had marked it S-class though so I'm taking it.

Getting in was a synch, getting out was even easier since I had slaughtered most of the guards. It was quite uneventful, and possibly the easiest mission of my life, but it had to be done.

Within a week I made it back to our current base. When I entered, I threw the scrolls down onto Pein's desk. I was tired from the trip and I wanted to rest for a bit. "Here, I grabbed everything I thought you would find significance to."

I was about to leave but his voice stopped me, "you reviewed them all."

I turned back around, "yes. Anything S or A-ranked I picked up."

Pein nodded slowly and picked up one of the scrolls, which happened to be the only gold colored one there. He opened it, I noticed it was the same one I had picked up last. The I.L.L jutsu or whatever.

"Have you heard of this one before?" Pein gestured towards the scroll.

I shrugged, "no but it's marked with an S so I figured the Akatsuki could use it to an advantage if someone knows how to use it."

Pein nodded slowly. "Let's test it then."

I inwardly groaned, a hot shower and some food was all I had wanted when I got back but now I needed to put that on hold.

We went out into the training slash most spacious area of the base and Pein studied the chart. He did the signs and I recognized almost all of them. The last one though, that was strange. It looked like an upside-down heart.

"I.L.Y no jutsu!" for a moment, nothing happened, then a second later, the wind began to pick up from no where. The wind turned into a mini-tornado, condensing into one spot.

When the wind ceased, there standing in the middle of the storm, was… Konan?

She was in a fighting stance, it would make sense since she was on a mission, but she was in earth country. Which happened to be one of the furthest points from this particular base.

"What? Pein did you summon me? I have to get back I am in the middle of a battle."

Pein looked slightly amused as well as curious, "what was the last thing you remember before coming here."

Konan put her kunai away, "I was escaping. I have the scrolls but they sent their elites on me. I would've made it, I am just surprised I am here now"

Pein picked up the scroll and studied it. "If it brought you out of danger, perhaps this could be of some use."

"Were you thinking of Konan when you did the jutsu?" I asked, honestly curious. Everyone knew those two had a thing for each other, but that's not why I was asking. Maybe it had something to do with bringing this particular person here.

"Well, yes and no. I was thinking about how this jutsu could work, but in the back of mind I was wondering if she was done or not."

Pein tossed me the scroll and I caught it with one hand. I raised an eyebrow, "what do you want me to do with it?"

"Study it. Your currently one of the only Akatsuki members here at the moment so learn it, the others will in time as well, but try to see what else it could do. Even practice it a few times."

I nodded. This sounded like fun. Maybe this is a jutsu where it would bring anyone you thought of to you, that would be great, I could get any Jinchuuriki here easy, and they wouldn't know what hit them.

I thought about the kid for a moment. Could I just think Kyuubi? No that might actually bring the demon fox out of the body and here. What was his name? Oh yeah, Naruto I think.

So, thinking the kids name, I did the jutsu. The hand signs were easy enough, it started as a summoning jutsu but then went into something unrecognizable. serpent-dragon-bird-ox-dog-serpent-monkey-bird and I didn't know the name of the last move but I copied what the picture looked like, which was an upside-down heart.

As soon as the air began to move, I gripped Samehada, ready to attack. I had been expecting the Kyuubi kid. I had been expecting that blonde-haired menace, I had been expecting a boy.

Instead I found myself looking down at a young lady.

What? I eased my grip ever-so-slightly on my sword, this could always be some kind of trick. "Hello?" I said softly, maybe she was dead, then I wouldn't have to deal with her.

But she looked up at me, with big round dark brown eyes. As soon as she spotted me she gasped. I wasn't at all surprised since that's usually the reaction I get form most people.

However, the thing that surprised me, was the look in her eyes. Her eyes read something I'd never thought I'd see a women looking at me with. Joy.

I must be seeing things though, so I shrugged it off and looked her in the eye, "how in Kami's name did you get in here." I guess that was an obvious to me but she didn't need to know I was probably the one that did it.

"K-Kisame?" she said with a slight smile. I was taken aback, who the hell was this girl? And how did she know my name.

"How do you know my name."

The girl said nothing, but she did blush and look down at the ground. "Answer me kid."

She looked up, but then instantly looked away again, "well um… I uh…"

"Who is this?" we both turned to see Pein walking towards us. I smirked, this would all be over soon.

"I did the jutsu like you asked. I thought that maybe if it brought whoever you were thinking of to you, then I could get the Jinchuuriki here. Instead, she showed up."

Pein put a hand to his head, "let me see that scroll again." I handed him the scroll.

He studied and eventually said, "what could I.L.Y possibly stand for anyway."

Suddenly the girl shouted, "I love you!" We both turned to her. She blushed, "uh… I mean I.L.Y stands for I love you where I come from…um…" a whole lot of awkward filled the room.

"An 'I love you' jutsu? That doesn't…" Pein broke off his sentence when Konan walked in.

"I think it makes perfect sense Pein. It probably means the person you love most is brought to you."

Pein looked uncomfortable and I couldn't help but snicker a bit at the outcome of all this. Then I frowned as I thought for a moment, "that still doesn't explain her," I jerked a thumb behind me, pointing to the girl. "I've never met her in my life, besides, I don't love anyone."

"So maybe it's the opposite?" the girl spoke from behind me in a soft voice and I turned my head slightly.

"what's that supposed to mean." I asked, does it mean that she cares for me? Psh, yeah right.

"I think it means that you brought the person who cares most for you here."

I turned to the girl. She looked so small and week compared to most shinobi, heck she even looked small compared to a genin, but her eyes… her eyes just had a fire burning in them, something that I couldn't quite grasp.

"Find out if she has any significance to the Akatsuki, if not, be rid of her immediately." Pein whispered next to me and left the room.

I really just wanted to get rid of her now, but when I looked into her eyes it was the only thing stopping me.

There was just something about them…

"So" I said, breaking the awkward silence, "name."

"My name is Kasai Buriza" fire breather? What kind of a name is that…

"Your name means fire breather."

She looked at the ground, "yes. I come from a long line of a family skilled in the art of fire."

That really didn't make much sense to him but… he was water so… yeah. "Whatever, what can you do? What abilities do you posses"

She looked at me, "I posses no abilities, I don't have chakra like you guys do." No chakra? Then what was I sensing, I think she does have some somewhere, but even she isn't fully aware if it herself. I saw that she was beginning to shake, I could tell I was scaring her. I smirked, perfect.

"Then you are of no use to us." I rushed forward, I could end this week girl with a quick snap of the neck. I could kill her with my bare hands, and I couldn't wait.

Just as my hands were about to wring her pretty little neck she wheezed out, "but I know information…"

I loosened my grip but still hand my hands ready to crush her windpipe. "What kind of information."

"I know things, like how you all die and…" she coughed a little and loosened my grip just a bit more, "and information on the Kage's, and the Jinchuuriki everyone is after… I even know the Akatsuki's motives-" I squeezed her neck tightly. How! How did she know all of that! I didn't even know some of the information she's spitting out.

I realize I must be hurting her when I felt small hands on mine, trying to get me to stop. I let go and she fell over, gasping for air. I went into Pein's office.

"Well."

"she claims she has knowledge on the organization and everyone else."

Pein raised an eyebrow, "do tell."

"I think she passed out, ask her yourself when she wakes up." Pein sighed. I went to my room.

Or was about to anyway, "keep an eye on the girl. I am making her your responsibility."

I groaned, my life just got a whole lot harder…

Going back to other room, I saw her laying on the ground. She wasn't passed out, but she wasn't exactly completely conscious either.

"Yo Kasai. Wake up." I nudged her gently with my foot. When she didn't move I sighed.

I turned her over and nearly jumped away at what I saw.

Her eyes, a moment ago they were so full of life. Burning with a passion, now… they were almost dead.

"Hey!" it kind of worried me that her eyes were so dull. If I had killed her that wouldn't have been a problem thirty seconds ago, but Pein wants her alive.

She blinked.

I watched her eyes come into focus and the fiery air they held came back. I almost let out a sigh of relief. Instead, All I said was, "good your not dead." and I stood up.

She got up as well, slowly but I waited until she was standing straight. She looked up at me with her doe eyes. I had to admit, it had a kind of charming effect to it.

I couldn't help but smile, even if it was just a little bit. "Ok, you'll be sleeping um… in my room. You can sleep on Itachi's bed until he get's back ok."

She nodded slowly, gaze never leaving my face.

I started to walk. She fallowed close behind. When I stopped abruptly I found it amusing that she ran straight into my back, letting out a small squeak in the process. I opened the door to my room.

Stepping aside, I let her in first and she went in nervously. "I'm going to take a shower so stay here, don't move." I planted her on the bed.

I turned towards the bathroom but I paused as something wrapped itself around me. I looked down and saw small, toothpick-like arms that I could crush in a second.

I raised an eyebrow even though she couldn't see.

"Thank you Kisame-san." I put my hands on her arms to remove them but then she said, "one hug? Can I have just one? Please." I stopped myself from removing her at the plead. Does she… really care? I stood there for an awkward moment before I felt her withdraw her small arms.

I was about to go into the bathroom but then I felt compelled to ask, "thanks for what?"

She looked up at me, "for not killing me." my eyes widened a fraction.

I only didn't kill her because Pein wants her alive. I turned back around and walked straight ahead.

I turned on the hot water and stood in the spray for a moment, leaning my head against the wall.

I said to myself, "an I love you jutsu huh?"
