Present

Midori dashed through the branches of the thick forest trying to make as little sound as possible. Why do these things always have to happen to me?

Past

Midori sat eating what little food she had, and after not eating for three days the meager supply of food was like a feast to her, who devoured it quickly. Snap! A twig broke behind her, and her heart sped up. She was still contemplating whether or not she should stay and fight or run for it when two cloaked figures entered her make-shift camp and spotted her. Midori sat there perplexed staring at the two men in her camp. One was tall and had a strange tint of blue to his skin and marks on his face that looked like gills. He was also wielding a large sword rapped up in a cloth to hide what it looked like from site. The other man was slightly shorter than his blue comrade it didn't take away from his air of danger. This man was definitely not one to mess with. He had longish black hair and black eyes, and his face was expressionless. Strangely he seemed kind of handsome.

Don't start thinking like slut okay. These guys could be dangerous and instead of running or saying anything you ogle them like a fool.

Recognition passed through her head as she took in their black cloaks with red clouds on them.

Akatsuki! Shit! Now I know I should run. But instead of running she opened her mouth to talk.

"Who are you?" She asked

"I'm sure an S-ranked criminal like yourself should know." answered the blue man.

"Okay then, how about this. What do the Akatsuki want with me?"

"We want you to join us of course, we have heard about you and we know that you have what it takes to be a member."

"Well sorry but I don't really feel up to it now so why don't you come back in like…never. Hmmm?" Midori said defiantly.

These guys literally think I'll join them just to be bossed around by there infamous Leader. I think not.

"We were sent retrieve you and bring you back to the lair. We will use force if necessary."

Midori seemed taken back. That was the first thing the dark haired man had said the whole time.

"What are your names?"

"I am Itachi Uchiha and this is my partner Kisame Hoshigaki."

Itachi Uchiha huh? So I finally get to meet the freak who killed his whole clan except for his younger brother. Interesting.

"My name is Midori and that's all you need to know about me okay."

Kisame chuckled next to his partner.

"The best name your parents could come up with for you is Midori. Who would name their child green?"

"Can it fish boy before I turn you into a tuna sandwich."

"Oh so she has a temper well she should fit in nicely with the rest of the guys back at the lair don't you think Itachi?"

Itachi merely nodded.

"About this Akatsuki thing, I am not about to join some stupid club so why don't you guys go and explain that to your Leader okay. Get it. Got it. Good"

"When I said we would use force to bring you back to the lair I wasn't lying." Itachi said quietly.

"Wow your a quiet one. Okay then. Well if you want to use force then you have to catch me first." Midori said over her shoulder while bounding into the woods. Itachi stood there while Kisame looked at him completely confused.

"Why didn't you just catch her in your genjustu?"

"I wanted to see how fast she is." Itachi said disappearing into the forest.

Present

While choosing to run from the two ninjas had seemed like a good idea at the, it time turned out to be very stupid. Even though Midori was a master at taijutsu, Itachi had been on her tail since she started which meant something since she technically had a head start. Midori knew that sooner or later one of then would have to give up. But she wasn't sure who would give up first. She stopped on a branch closed her eyes and listened to the forest searching for the sounds of the two comrades chasing her. She heard nothing. Opening her eyes the first thing she saw was...Itachi's Sharingan glowing red.

Shit that's how he's been keeping up with me! I have to look away....

It was too late though, she was already caught in the genjustu.

Shit.....

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Itachi walked up to the young woman laying unconscious on the tree branch. She had passed out after being caught in his Sharingan.

Beautiful but bitchy...Just what we need Itachi thought sarcastically.

He was right though, she was extremely beautiful. She had jet black hair with bangs. The bangs happened to be emerald green. Along with black and green hair, she had an hourglass figure that was well filled out in the chest and backside area. Her face was anything but plain with long eyelashes pinkish lips that stood out on her pale skin. She looked slightly vulnerable but Itachi had a feeling that when she woke up in the lair she would be breathing curse words and fire.

So Hidan's got a new friend, huh, I just hope she isn't into Jashinism.

Strangely Itachi felt annoyed at the fact that when Hidan saw her he'd be dogging her like a sexual predator. She was his, he caught her he keeps her. With those thoughts in his head he looked down at the young woman again. Her eyes fluttered as if she was stirring awake.

I'd better get her back to the lair before she wakes up.
