Here it is finally. The sequel to The Secrets I Hold in my Heart. Hope to see all my faithful viewers back for more. And maybe some new ones as well.

I do not own Naruto.

Enjoy.


The gate to Suna was in sight. As we approached it I head Sasori mutter for Deidara not to mess up. I rolled my eyes; we both knew he'd do something stupid.

We had left to find the one tailed jinchuuriki. That's right, we're hunting Gaara. I had this knot in my stomach that wouldn't go away. I was going to hurt my best friend in the worst possible way.

I looked at Deidara. 'I wonder what I would do if I lost you?' I thought. It would be a horrible feeling. That much I did know.

We got to the gate and one of Sasori's spies was waiting for us. He let us through without a problem. I became even sicker when I saw he had slaughtered his own comrades. Deidara must have noticed something was up because low enough for Sasori not to hear he asked "Are you okay, un?"

I nodded meekly. I'd be okay; I just needed to get out of this field of bodies. When we entered the village Deidara brought out his giant clay bird and jumped on it. "Make it quick, you know I don't like to be kept waiting." Sasori said.

"Relax Sasori; I'll be back in no time, un." With that he took off.

Sasori turned and looked at me. "You're hiding something." He stated. "Normally you won't shut up but this whole mission you've been dead silent."

"I…"

"Don't even try to lie Katerina."

I sighed. "I have a friend who lives here. She's dating the one-tails." I admitted. "Hurting her isn't sitting well with me."

"Holding on to old relationships will be your downfall, you know that don't you?"

"Yeah, I know. That's why I tried not to make any, but I guess that's pretty much impossible."

"Why did you join Akatsuki Katerina?"

"When I was younger I promised my brother I would help him with something when the time came. In order to fulfill that promise I needed to join Akatsuki. The time for me to fulfill that is drawing nearer." I said. "A year at the most."

"What was that promise."

"That I can't tell you."

"Hmm,"

We looked back as a series of explosions took place. "That idiot," I muttered.

"You're telling me."


We watched as Garra and Deidara battled across the entire village. Gaara got his sand around Deidara's arm and used sand coffin. I freaked out. "TELL ME THAT DID NOT JUST HAPPEN!"

"If you don't shut up I'll knock you out."

I continued to freak out in my head and by not staying still. Not long after that Deidara tried to blow up the whole freaking village. 'Are you stupid!' I thought. Gaara used the last of his strength to protect the village. Deidara caught him with his bird and came back down.

"Took you long enough." Sasori said.

I just kept look horrified at where his left arm used to be. "Deidara," I muttered.

He looked at me before realizing what I was freaked out about. "It's not that bad, un."

"Not that bad? YOUR FUCKING ARM'S MISSING!"

"Whoa, there's normal you, un." He said backing away.

"Damn strait; it's normal pissed me!"

"Calm down before you alert the entire village." Sasori hissed.

"Get on the bird." I said quietly.

"What, un?"

"GET ON THE DAMN BIRD!"

"Okay," He said quickly.

I got on with him. "We can start moving. I'm going to stop the bleeding before this idiot bleeds to death." I said.

"Don't touch me, un."

"Deidara," I growled.

"No,"

"I have to stop the bleeding."

"I'm fine, un."

"If you're fine then where's your arm?"

"Fine, un, stop the damn bleeding."

"Thank you."

Once I stopped the bleeding Deidara and I started walking again. We left many random paths to throw off anyone who might follow us. Our attempts proved futile however when Kankuro found us.


"Katerina, I should have known."

"Hello Kankuro," I said bringing my guard up. I can't show weakness. "I never thought you'd be smart enough to find us."

"Shut up, things have changed since the Chunin Exams."

"I'm sure," I said sarcastically. "Still do everything your little brother says?" Ouch, that hurt.

"You're dead," He said summoning his puppets.

"Ah, been a while since I've seen those. Sorry, but I'm not going to be your opponent." I stepped back by Deidara. Sasori stepped forward.

"Puppet master verses puppet master. This should be interesting." Sasori said.

I looked at Deidara who nodded. "We'll go on ahead." He said jumping up onto his bird and pulling me up afterwards.

"Like I'll let you go." Kankuro shouted making Crow come at us. Sasori easily blocked him with Hiruko's tail.

While Sasori began battling Deidara and I continued towards the hideout. He was standing while I sat with my legs crossed behind him. I sighed. "You really are an idiot."

"I realize that, un."

I sighed again. He went to say something and I stopped him. "I'm not a miracle worker Deidara, I'm a medic nin. If you find you arm and have it reattached by Kakuzu I can restore movement to it but I can't grow it back.

He groaned. I let out a small laugh. "Sometime you act like you're five." I said.

"Shut up, un."


Sasori caught up fairly quickly. Once he did we continued to the hideout. Once we arrive leader said it would take three days to fully seal the Shukaku. We began the sealing technique. Leaf Ninja interrupted us a few times but my brother and Kisame took care of them. By the time they got to us the sealing was complete.


"So, how do we know which one is the Kuubi, un?" Deidara asked.

"He's the one who'll bust in without thinking." I replied.

"What do you…?"

The entrance to the cave fell apart and I looked over to see my old team. Team seven.

Naruto of course being the idiot he is began running his mouth as soon as he saw Gaara.

"You bastards," He growled. "How could you do this?"

"Oh, now I get it, un."

"Yeah," I said. "Try being on a team with him for a year."

"And you!" He turned on me. "How could you betray the village? They were right; you're no different than your brother."

That hit a nerve. "Don't you dare talk about my brother! You don't know a damn thing so just shut your mouth!" I screamed at him.

"I know enough. Sasuke explained what he did. It's his fault Sasuke left!"

"If all of what Sasuke said was true than why am I here?" I said without thinking. I slapped my hand over my mouth.

"I-I don't know." He said getting quiet for once.

"I don't really care the reason." A familiar voice said. 'No,' I thought. "All I know is you're a traitorous bitch."

"Kita," I muttered as she entered the cave.

"You tricked me. You acted like you were my friend and then stabbed me in the back. I let you go that day. I trusted you. Now I realize that was a mistake."

"Kita…I…"

"Just give him back." I looked at Naruto who was getting mad again.

"Give Gaara back!"

"Well Sasori," Deidara said. "I think I'll take this one too, un."

"What? Deidara there's one assigned to each of us. He's supposed to be mine."

Deidara didn't listen. He just picked Gaara up with his giant bird and jumped on narrowly missing Hiruko's tail. He started flying away.

"Hey!" I yelled. "Don't leave me here!" I used the pile of rocks from the busted entrance as leverage and jumped up to the bird. Deidara caught my hand and pulled me up. I hit him on the back of the head. "Idiot! What were you thinking leaving me back there?"

"Ow, un. I knew you'd catch up."

"Whatever," I muttered. This would be interesting.
