Ok, Sorry, I know I haven't updated in awhile, anyways, here's the next chapter.

"What happened?" You asked, yawning and rubbing your eyes.

"You blacked out, don't you remember?" Itachi asked, slightly concerned. You turned to him, with a confused expression wiping across your face.

"No, now that I think about it, I don't remember anything, except your name." You said quietly, looking at him with concern for yourself in your eyes.

"Well, I guess I should report to Pein-sama then." He said, grabbing your hand and taking you with him to Pein's office.

"Um, Itachi, who's Pein?" I asked, confused. Itachi looked back at you, still running, with a concerned look still plastered onto his face.

"The leader of the Akatsuki, you'll see." Itachi said, looking forward once more after you gave an understanding nod. Itachi came to a sudden stop in front of Pein's office; shocking you and making you run into him.

"S-sorry Itachi-san."You mumbled against the side of his cloak. He just knocked on the door to Pein's office, his concerned expression faded into an emotionless face, as usual. A faint 'come in' could be heard from the other side of the door. Itachi opened the slowly and let you in first, closing the door behind him as he entered. You squinted into the darkness of Pein's office, trying to see at least the Akatsuki leader's silhouette.

"I see she looks fine, anything you would like to report? Unusual Behavior? Memory loss? Anything?" Pein asked, staring at Itachi, waiting for a response.

"Yes, actually, she is experiencing memory loss. She can't remember anything except for her name, that she has nine souls, and me." Itachi said, trying not to look concerned in front of his superior.

"Very well, be sure not to let any of the other members find out about this, they will try and take advantage of the situation." Pein said, and then added, "Itachi, you will teach and train her, first you must teach her all the members' names again, or the other members will get suspicious."

"I understand Leader-sama." Itachi responded, nodding in understanding. Itachi then excited the room, you right on his tail, with Pein staring at you as you leave.

*~ Pein's POV ~*

You stared at Yumi as she left; worry suddenly washing over your face. You heard a deep, amused chuckle coming from behind you. You sighed, already knowing who this was. You turned in your desk chair, with a knowing and not amused look crossing your face.

"Madara-sama, I know what you're thinking, don't even try, I've had Itachi been put on teaching and guarding duty for her." You sighed out. Knowing even though you had just barely stated not to let anyone take advantage of the situation, Madara would still try and seduce her. Madara chuckled darkly once more, coming into your view.

"I just want to have a little fun, after all, once I'm done with her, she'll be fully convinced that she's mine and will be begging for more." Madara said, a mischievous smirk forming on his face.

"You can't she'll very valuable to the Akatsuki once more when she regains her memory." You said, glaring at your only superior. You heard another low chuckle come from the back of Madara's throat, except this time, more amused than dark.

"I see, so you've fallen for her too, this has gotten interesting. I can't wait to see how this ends…" Madara trailed off, going over to a thin, long window, the only source of light in the dark office, and peered out of it.

*~ Your POV ~*

"I-I'm sorry I'm causing so much trouble for you, Itachi-san." You say, looking down at your feet as you sit on a stool in the kitchen of the base, waiting for Itachi to make something for you both to eat.

"Don't worry about it." Itachi said, turning around a stick of dango in each of his hands, him walking over to you and sitting down to you, handing you one of them. You took it and smiled, thanking him generously. He merely smiled back. You began to consume the dango, shoving one of them in your mouth along with the tip of the stick, sucking on the first piece with care, and then slowly swallowing it. You did the same thing with the other two pieces. Then when you had finished of the pieces of dango, you began to lick up and down the stick, making sure you got it all. Unknown to you, Itachi was getting a major hard-on from watching you, only have eaten one piece of dango, then stopping when he had noticed how you were eating it. When you had finished licking the stick, you looked up at him, noticing how he had barely eaten any of his dango and that he was staring at you with wide eyes.

"I-Is something wrong, Itachi-san?" You asked, getting nervous because of the way he was staring at you, with a slight tint of some emotion not known to you, but seemed familiar. Itachi shook his head, his hair waving about and around his face, trying to shake away his emotions, but he knew he would need to take care of the little 'tent' in the crotch of his pants at some time, so he quickly finished up the rest of his dango in a rush, but not too fast as to choke, then got up.

"I'm going to go to the bathroom, wait here and don't go anywhere while I'm gone, ok?" Itachi said, leaving right after he got a responding nod from you to go take care of his little 'problem'. You looked around the room, trying to think of something to do while you wait for him to come back. You thought you heard someone coming and your deer ears and tail popped out of your flesh once again, you getting into a defensive position.

"Whoa now, Yumi, what're you doing? It's just me, Deidara, un." Deidara said when he saw you in that position after entering the base's kitchen. You dropped your defensive position and sat down again, watching him carefully as he grabbed some of the dango Itachi had made from the fridge and sat down next to you. He began to eat his dango slowly until he noticed you were staring at him, and then he smirked.

"Like what you see, hmm?" He asked, shifting so he was facing you. You blushed slightly, going wide-eyed at the absurd question. "Anyways, could you change into Keiko for me, hmmm?" He asked, lifting an eyebrow and leaning out towards you. You furrowed your eyebrows, concerned for what he wanted from Keiko, then proceeded to switch main souls. After you had changed into Keiko, his smirk had grown wider, almost reaching from ear-to-ear as they say.

"Hey Deidara." You said your expression identical to his. He grabbed your chin and pulled you into a breathtaking kiss, smothering your mouth with his own. Itachi walked into the room, his eyes widening at the sight before him.

"D-Deidara!? What are you doing?" Itachi asked and exclaimed, in shock and anger at the sight bestowed before him. Deidara let go of your chin as he broke away from the kiss, leaving you panting for air and growling for more. Deidara looked at your disappointment and chuckled a bit at your growling.

"Why, Itachi-san, I was simply keeping Keiko here entertained, what's so bad about that, hmm?" Deidara asked in a very teasing manner, looking over at you as you growled once more, only to realize it was directed at Itachi and you were glaring at him. "See, un? You ruined our little fun, hmm. By the way, Itachi-san, it seems as if Keiko agrees with me, un. No sharingan users touching her anytime soon." Deidara announced, trying to annoy the hell out of Itachi by pulling you closer and licking your cheek, sending shivers down your spine. It seemed to be working, because Itachi was glaring at Deidara and had his hands at his sides balled up into fists.

"I'll show you, Keiko, change into Yumi, now." Itachi growled out in a command, making you flinch and nod quickly. You immediately switched main souls to Yumi, Deidara hissed in annoyance at Itachi's rude behavior.

Itachi smirked, his feet easily sliding across the floor to meet up with you. You pushed yourself away from Deidara's grasp and into Itachi's, letting him hold you and caress your sides, making you groan slightly from the feeling, and in the process making Deidara's eye twitch from the noise erupting from your throat. Itachi quickly turned you around in his arms, smirking at Deidara's slight anger. Itachi kissed you exuberantly and his hands traveled to the hem of your shirt, slipping under it and messaging your sides as he worked his way up, pulling your shirt up as he went. Deidara growled lowly and stormed out the room, his face red from anger.

"We need to go to Pein's office, okay? I think I figured something else out about your condition." Itachi explained to you after he broke the kiss and had fixed your shirt. You simply nodded in understanding and he left, taking you with him by gently taking hold of your hand. Itachi, instead of simply knocking and waiting like he usually does, burst in and strides across the floor and slammed his hands onto Pein's desk, looking like he accomplished taking over the world or something insanely impossible like that. You could just barely make out Pein sitting in the chair behind the desk from what little light you had to work with.

"What is it Itachi?" Pein asked, looking quite annoyed at Itachi's little entrance.

"I think I've found something new, you see, you know how Yumi only remembers me and she also is in love with me? Well, she changed into Keiko and when she saw Deidara she immediately recognized him. I think that each of the souls can only remember the one they love." Itachi explained, all in one breath and he was panting lightly. Pein nodded slightly, turning to me.

"Change into Miyuki-san, now." Pein ordered in a very stern tone of voice, waiting patiently for Yumi to switch main souls. After Yumi had finished changing into Miyuki, Pein lifted an eyebrow and asked in the same tone as before while pointing his finger directly at Itachi, "Do you know this man?"

Miyuki seems confused for a moment, then answered, "No, why? Should I know him?" She looked back and forth between the two men, only knowing Pein. "Pein, why did you call me here?" You asked, staring into Pein's Rinnegan, waiting for him to respond.

"I called you here to test something, it seems Itachi's" Pein gestures to other man in the room, "theory is indeed correct." You nodded, not knowing what he was talking about, but just going with it. "You may now both leave." Pein finished, glancing at Itachi and nodding to him slightly. It seemed there was something between the two you did not know about, and it may have been about you, for all you knew, because Itachi returned the action with a bit more enthusiasm and slight smirk lighting up his features. You both left the room, Itachi's smirk fading and his entire face going emotionless once more, while you were left confused at the silent exchange.

Itachi led you back to your room, mumbling something about how something was going to be a challenge. This made you even more confused and wondering what was going on. Once you had gotten to your room and you went in after departing from Itachi with a simple goodnight. You lay on your bed, finding a good sleeping position, and letting yourself be consumed by your dreams.

You woke up to a very enthused 'Tobi is a good boy!' coming from the hallway just outside your door, followed by a low grumble from who you suspected was Deidara, considering his room was across the hall from yours. You groaned from being woken up very abruptly like so, hopped up out your bed, and walked to your closet, grabbing a short dress that was black and had a gold hem with one sleeve; which pooled around just the base of your arm and a golden sash tied around your waist. You switched main souls to Etsuko, and then changed into the dress. You pulled a pair of high pumps that reached your knees with buckles inter-laced all over the sides of the pair of heavy foot-wear.

"Shut up, un." Was heard from Deidara from the other side of your door as walked towards it, heading out to find something to eat, as you opened the door, something ran into you, making you fall down with shock written all over your face. You blushed when you realized that the person that had run into you had fell on-top of you. You looked down and recognized this person to be Tobi, but only because all of the souls had a meeting and taught each other each of the names of Akatsuki members.

"Um…Tobi-kun, could you please get off me?" You asked shyly, looking down at him. You pushed his shoulders gently, trying to get him off quicker.

"Oh! Why hello Etsuko-san! Deidara-sempai pushed me…so I accidently fell on you! Sorry!" Tobi explained, hopping off you and onto his feet, offering to help you up by holding out his hand. You grabbed onto it and he pulled you up, you stumbling a bit as you got onto your feet. Deidara saw you and looked you over, smirking a bit at what you were wearing.

"How've you been, Etsuko-chan, hmmm?" He asked, playing with a strand of your hair and looking directly into your eyes, still smirking.

Well, that's it for now, I'll update more on the story as soon as I can! ^_^;; R&R!!!
