Amai was running. She could taste blood, and dirt, and her wings were broken. Every time she'd tried to take flight a searing pain had stopped her in her tracks.

Keep running... her inner told her promptly. She knew she needed to listen to it. Her chakra had been cut down to an almost nonexistent state. Her jutsu's were defective against those who were tormenting her. All she could do was run. Amai knew of two enemies in red and black cloaks. Somehow she knew that they wanted to capture her. Not kill her. They would've before, because they'd had plenty of chances.

The white dress she wore was now ripped and torn. Dirt was smeared down the front. She'd been running through this dense forest for over an hour... She couldn't run much longer and knew this. They were closing in on her.

Itachi... Have you found her yet?

She's running this way. Get over here!

Copy. Tell Pein we've got an angel.

Itachi snorted, Angel. These people put up quite a fight.

I know... I broke a couple of ribs that's why I'm moving so slow. The other voice belonged to Deidara.

Amai burst into the clearing from which Itachi was stationed. Collapsing on the ground she heaved, trying to catch a breath.

"Little angel... I think you've outdone yourself." Itachi said stepping out of hiding.

"What do you want with me?!" she screamed.

"We want you to be ours." He said looking at her with onyx eyes.

"Never!"

"Quiet now..." he murmured catching her gaze. Those obsidian eyes seemed to turn crimson before her, and soon she lie on the ground unconscious. Deidara stepped through the bushes within seconds.

"Is she ready?"

"Yes. Let's take her back. You do realize that now she's our responsibility right? We caught her."

"Yep. Pein told me."

Deidara looked from Amai to Itachi, clutching at his ribcage.

"Are we going to carry her?- or treat her like cargo on my bird?"

"Carry her. I'll do it." Itachi said flatly. His normal neutral expression returning to his face. She was extremely pretty with long hair the color of lilacs, cascading down her back in curls. When her eyes had been open they were wide, and yellow topaz colored, darkly, and heavily lashed. Eyes of a hunter. Her power had been immense, as both Deidara, and Itachi had been hurt very badly. Deidara threw his head back and laughed wildly,

"The things we do on a day-to-day basis." He said. Itachi remained silent. He agreed fully, but he didn't feel like talking any longer.

Amai woke, she was in a strange place and immediately knew it. She was almost instantly aware of the smell of food that made her mouth water. Her dress was caked to her body, she was repulsed by its feeling. A dull pain throbbed in the back of her head, she rubbed a small spot over her left eyebrow. Amai took in her surroundings, she was in a master bedroom where the color scheme was almost all gold and black. The ceilings were massive. She lie on a golden canopy bed with a spray of gold mist hanging around her. The floor itself was golden marble with specks of black and gold stones. Where was she? Half the room was shrouded in darkness, and she guessed that was where the door was. Stepping off of the large bed she was startled by the rumble of a very deep voice.

"You aren't going to find any way out of here little angel." The seductive tone was extremely familiar. Looking in the direction of the voice, she watched as two pairs of crimson eyes emerged from the shadows.

"Yeah. Look on your ankle." Another one said. This time one blue eye opened, the other was shrouded in hair. Amai glanced down. There was a small silver anklet encasing her ankle. It was silver and held a yellow topaz in the shade that reminded her of her own eyes, seven small silver feathers dangled off each side.

"Wh-what... is this?" She murmured fear biting into her core.

"It's a way for us to restrict your chakra flow, and to keep you where we want you." The voice that belonged to the blue eyes said.

"Before you ask, I am Deidara. This is Itachi. We belong to an organization called the Akatsuki. Our leader has a purpose for you we have yet to know. We aren't going to kill you, but be warned, if you try to get away you will be hurt." he said. She swallowed.

"Itachi and I are going to care for you in these first months." he said.

"Is there anything you want to know?" The other voice, Itachi, said. He sounded almost bored.

"When can I eat? A-and when can I take a shower?" One of them stepped from the shadows, he was blonde, with one blue eye showing. Deidara. He carried a tray with a large bowl and a cup on it. Amai's stomach growled.

"Take this. After you eat, one of us will take you to the bathroom. You can shower and change your clothes there."

"Into what you guys didn't exactly let me pack anything." she said angrily.

"There are things for you." Itachi said tastelessly. She breathed out a long breath and swirled around to sit on her bed. Deidara stepped forth and set the tray of food before her.

"Twenty minutes exactly." he said. Then he turned and the red eyes disappeared, the sound of a heavy metal door shut. Three locks clicked.

That's because I'm so dangerous huh? Amai asked herself, she gazed at the pretty anklet. Something so delicate, that could be snapped so easily held her prisoner. This whole bracelet was irony. Amai was just like this anklet. She was the fragile metal, the gem her inner seal. It held her prisoner inside her own body. She had no control over her chakra, which sucked the life from anything she touched if she were angry. She was as exiled as a Jinchuriki in her village. The village Hidden in the Waterfall. Shaking herself back to reality she began to fill her stomach.

Itachi walked down the hallway of the catacombs, deep in thought. He was irritated, he had to come and take the girl to shower. Not that she wasn't an advantage. But he'd rather have Deidara take care of her. Sighing heavily he knocked on the large door.

"Come in." he heard from the other side. She stood in the middle of the room body erect, waiting.

"It's time. Follow me. And don't try to escape anywhere, you'd never make it out for many reasons."

"Understood." she murmured.

They walked side by side in the dark catacombs for maybe five minutes before they stepped into a large bathroom. Her water was already drawn, hot and steamy.

"You now share this bathroom with Deidara and I. As your privelages increase you will be allowed to roam the hideout when you want to." he said.

So they don't want to kill me.

"Your stuff is over there, I'll be right outside the door. Call me if you need anything." he muttered. Itachi filed himself out quickly and shut the door.

She stood for a moment head tilted, looking at the door.

Share?!

She undressed quickly and put her toe in the water, testing it. It was hot and goosebumps spread on her skin like wildfire. She dove in. she lie on the surface of the water, listening to the sounds the underground hideout made, muffled by liquid. The smell of roses enveloped her and she let herself go. For once in her life she would appreciate a moment. Her hair fanned out above her like a large purple flame. Allowing her eyes to close, she breathed deeply. She was gone.

"Well hello." a voice said above her. Her eyes snapped open and she dove underwater. There stood Deidara, clad only in a towel.

"Oh my God!" She screamed and reached for bottles on the side and began to throw them at his head. She heard the bottles make impact with skin.

"Ouch! Hey watch it!" He screamed.

"Get out! Get out! Get out!"

"Okay! God!"

"Women..." he muttered and was soon gone. She sank into the water, letting it rise to her neck. She was flushed still, her heart beating hard.

I don't like the way this feels. Her inner told her. It wasn't the fact that he'd seen her entire body, it was because she didn't exactly dislike him seeing it. She shook her head fast enough to give her whiplash. The door opened quietly.

"Is everything alright?" Itachi asked. She sank lower into the water.

"Deidara was in here don't you know? Or are you trying to see me naked too?!" she said picking up the last remaining bottle.

"No I didn't know that. He must've came through that door." Itachi said pointing. Amai turned, and saw a glass door covered in steam.

"Oh... Hey what're you doing?!" she asked, frantically covering herself as he walked around the bathroom picking up bottles, and placing them where they were.

"You might want to get used to things little angel... Such as being naked around a man. You're getting a full body inspection after this."

In that moment all the blood in Amai's body rushed to her face.

"Wh-what? No... no way!" she said.

"If you refuse we will sedate you. It isn't sexual, it's regulation." Itachi said flatly. Shrinking in the water she was suddenly sad.

"Though watch the way you act around other members... Because some of them might make it sexual. Deidara and I are in charge of you... Not only in taking care of you, but defending you." He added. Amai had the feeling he never spoke this many words at a time.

"Now hurry."

Soon Amai was dressed, blood flowing, flustered. Nervous, as Itachi led her down a different hall into a well lit room. An operating table had been set up. A man with spiked orange hair, stood next to a man who resembled a shark very closely. They both had surgical masks on. Her heart hammered her chest.

"Relax, we're only checking you out for injury and making sure your chakra points are normal." The shark said. His eyes were black. Amai managed to nod her head, a whimper escaping from her throat.

"Now Itachi disrobe her." The one with the orange hair said. He had the voice of fire. Her body was frozen, she couldn't move. She felt Itachi's hands on her, sparks on her skin. She almost leaned into him. He swept her up in his arms, lying her down on the table. The feeling of ice shocked her skin. The man with the voice of fire leaned down to her, she saw his eyes were purple with black rings,

"If you struggle Kisame here will hold you down." he said. She nodded, it was the only thing her body allowed her to do.

"Good. Now tell me if you feel any pain."

Pein's fingers roamed her skin, he lightly applied pressure to each area. Around her stomach she winced.

"Here?" he asked.

"Y-yes." she said. He continued down until he reached her abdomen. Once his hands began to drift further down she let out a squeal.

No! Her hands rushed to her womanhood,

"Kisame." The man said calmly. Kisame was the shark man, he came and pinned her shoulders to the table.

"Why do you need to touch there!?" she asked frantically. Throwing her head to she side she saw Itachi was no longer standing at the door.

Good... she thought. I don't want him to see me like this.

The man reached down to her anklet and snapped one of the feathers off. A wave of power hit her. His hand gently spread her legs.

"You see, there is a chakra point that's rather vital, right-"

His fingers brushed her clitoris, making her back arch. She let out a scream.

"Here." he finished. Snapping the feather back on, she felt the power leave her body. Kisame released his grip on her, and grabbed a clipboard.

"She's got good chakra flow in Points A-G."

"Yes master Pein." Kisame said, and scribbled that down on some paper. Pein continued down her legs and pressed on her thigh.

"H-I-J-K all clear." Pein said in a monotone voice. This was nothing to him, except for business.

"Flip her over." he said flatly. Kisame picked her up and dropped her on the table metal had warmed a bit from her lying on it. But not enough to keep her nipples from hardening.

Pein started at her feet and worked his way up, until he got to the middle of her back.

"This will hurt you. If you move though it's going to hurt worse. Do you want Kisame to hold you down for when you feel it?" Pein asked. She nodded suddenly very afraid. His hands found the anklet once again and snapped another feather off. The rush of chakra went to her middle back, between her shoulder blades. The pain was there, as her chakra tried to repair the damage.

"Are your wings made of chakra?" he asked,

"Sort of... It's a type of chakra."

"I see. Be ready for the pain." he said. His fingers tapped each spot in between her shoulder blades. Her wings ripped from her body, she gasped in pain. Agony surged through her body. Kisame fought to keep her steady as Pein let his fingers run over the feathers.

"This chakra... It's so powerful and rare... You can see it without it wavering."

Tears were flowing down Amai's cheeks, as she grit her teeth, fighting to stay strong.

"They're broken in three spots. Two on the left. One on the right." He said grabbing the clipboard and writing this down.

"Her chakra is trying to heal it. Does this usually happen Amai?"

How does he know my name?

"S-sometimes when I h-hurt them, my c-chakra goes to them and fixes t-them." she managed.

"Alright, it's going to hurt again. But you're doing well." Soon the other feather was back in place. Her wings descended into her back, knocking the breath out of her.

"Your body seems to heal itself. For treatments on your wings, we're going to release your chakra once a day so they can heal." Pein said taking his mask off. His face was very handsome, but really pierced. As Amai had thought Kisame had the exact jaw of a shark. But she was less afraid now. They allowed her to dress while they talked among themselves. When she was finished she noticed Itachi had come back. She nodded at him.

"Well now then, she is in fine condition. Compared to how you could have captured her. Bring her here once a day for treatment. You are dismissed." he waved them away.
