"DADDY PLEAS!!!!!" I yelled as my father walked away from the house bringing all of his things with him.

"Ayaka it's time you learned to fend for your yourself. Take care of your mother and brother for me. I'll never see you again and I want you to know that your not the reason that I'm leaving and I love you," My father said walking away from me. I ran towards him and hugged him tightly from behind.

"Daddy I love you too, and I will always keep you in my heart. I know I'll see you again one day. Keep strong and never forget us," I said crying into his back.

That was four years ago when I was ten. Now at the age of fourteen I'm traveling around trying to find my father. I left the security of my home in the small village of Konoha and I am looking for an organization called the Akatsuki. I was told that they could help me find my father.

"What am I doing here Minkate?" I asked my wolf demon looking around the woods surrounding me. "They said it was around here but I don't see any…" I started but then I saw someone come out of the bushes.

"Can I help you with something?" He asked. The man was warring a black clock with red clouds outlined with white outlining them. He had grayish hair and red eyes. The man looked to me in his late twenties early thirties.

"You're in the Akatsuki right?" I asked the man curiously.

"What if I am? Are you supposed to be the new person Satsuri told us about?" He asked me.

"What if I am? Just lead me to the base so I can meet my new partner" I told him.

"You look a little young to be an Akatsuki member. How old are you?" He asked me starting to walk back the way he came.

"If you must know I'm fourteen" I answered fallowing him into the woods.

"Four years younger then I was when I first joined. I wanted a family and took a break then left them and came back. I don't know why I came back because I miss them every day and I still love them all" He said sounding a little concerned because of my age that I wouldn't have a good family life when I was ready to have a family.

"My father left four years ago. I was told that this organization would be able to help me find him. That's the main reason I came. That and my mothers new husband treats my brother and I like shit and he beats my mother" I said. The strange man led me through some hidden doors and into a small room.

"Satsori-samma should be in here shortly with ever one else to determine who your partner is" The man said walking out "I'll be back. I'm going to go get them" He finished and closed the door behind him.

I sat silently thinking to my self. 'That man looks a lot like my father. I miss him and hope that I find him soon.' My thoughts where interrupted by the door opening again. The man from earlier walking in fallowed by eight others wearing the same clocks as he was.

"Welcome to the Akatsuki. I'm Satsuri, the leader," Satsuri said. "What are you looking for in your partner?" He asked me.

"I don't know. Some one strong and reliable. Some one that I know it will be a challenge to surpass them but it's not impossible" I said.

"Well the only one in here that's stronger then you is Itachi. I'll pare you with him if he doesn't mind" Satsuri said. The man from earlier walked forward.

"That's fine with me, but what's going to happen to Kisame?" He asked.

"Kisame will become Tobis Partner" Satsuri answered. At this every one but the man now named Itachi left the room. Itachi handed me a Akatsuki clock and lead me off to our room (Partners share a room).

"So what's your full name?" He asked me trying to get to know me better.

"Ayaka Uchiha" I answered. Itachi froze and turned to face me.

"Did I just hear you say your name was Ayaka Uchiha?" he asked me sounding confused and not sure of himself.

"Yes. Why do you ask? Do you know my father?" I asked him excitedly.

"If you are Ayaka, then I am your father. Do you have a brother named Shouta? And a mother named Yuuka?" He asked me.

"Yes they are my brother and my mother. Are you my father?" I asked happily.

"Ayaka my daughter I missed you" He said softly coming over and hugging me tightly.

"Dad" I said hugging him back, smelling brightly.

"Did your mother really get remarried?" He asked me concerned for my mothers well being. You could tell he still loved us.

"Yes. She got remarried to some jerk who wants to get rid of Shouta and I and he beets mother until she can't stand and is within an inch of death" I tried explaining to my father calmly but failing as a tear started to fall from my face.

"Child you should be protecting your mother not here trying to find me," He said holding my head between his hand and wiping the tears away as they started falling more.

"That's why I came to find you father. Mother needs you to get rid of that jerk. He doesn't love her and she doesn't love him. When he's away on a mission I hear mother crying and saying your name. She only loves you and only married that jerk because she thought that Shouta and I needed a father in our life and thought you where never coming back" I said getting my composer back staring into my fathers eyes.

"Are you ready to leave tonight?" he asked me

"As ready as I was to come here" I said. And at that the two of us ran out of the entrance and back towards Konoha.
