The smell of wet paint spread through the room. The lilac colored walls were now finished and all that was left was to add the furniture that Yoko "borrowed" from that big furniture store outside of town, which Hidan was happy to help her with.

Yoko the strange, carefree, designer from the mist had just finished another decoration project in the base. This was her rather weird hobby. Her hair was a bright candy apple red, her eyes golden, full of life and innocence, she was small a mere height of only 5 feet, but she had BIG personality.

She had practically taken over the base and repainted, redesigned , and rebuilt almost everyone's rooms almost every month. Basically making friends with everyone.


Yoko walked down the halls covered in purple paint with and empty bucket at hand, her shadow followed right behind her. A low chuckle was heard through the halls and two dimming red orbs floating in mid air.

"Itachi" She said. "You poking fun at my hobby?" Itachi always thought her designing was weird and that she had NO idea what she was doing. He always said that everyone only TOLD HER they liked her sense of style and in reality they just felt sorry for her, even though he'd never actually asked or seen their rooms.

"You're still working on these silly design ideas I see." He said with a sly look on his face. "They're not silly, you're just boring!" She replied "Now if you will excuse me, I have to go get furniture for Konan's room. Unlike you she believes in me." Yoko walked straight ahead as the Uchiha just stepped out of her way.

In reality Itachi liked her positive personality and feistiness. He LOVED poking fun at her and seeing her reaction. And secretly he's always wanted to see her work. Unfortunately Itachi was but with other things and she also had plans of her own.


Yoko finished Konan's room and headed towards hers, she was too tired to do anything and just wanted to sleep. The alarm read 8:30 PM but it felt like one in the morning. Yoko's room was painted a different color every week. This week she had painted it Highlighter Yellow and the furniture was black.

Yoko wanted to but couldn't fall asleep. She was thinking about Itachi. 'Something is weird about him. He NEVER talks to us unless it involves missions and he only makes fun of me, I don't know why it bothers me'

She went to sleep because leader said to wake up early and that tomorrow was a big day, so that's what she did. Little did she know….someone was watching her…
