LITTLE GIRL AT THE DOOR

"I'll check the door!" 13 year old Sasori mumbled as he paused what he was watching and opened the door. There stood the palest human he had ever seen with wild red curls and teary jade eyes. She slumped in his arms breathless.

"Jiraiya-sama!" he yelled as he brought in the almost lifeless body. He placed her on the nearest couch as gently as possible.

Soon, a white haired man came running from inside wearing an apron.

"Look. I found her...outside...she's half dead!"

"Get my car keys!"

Sasori got him the car keys and they drove to the nearest hospital.

The redhead was rushed to an emergency ward with an oxygen mask over her nose and mouth.

"How and where!" Jiraiya looked at Sasori.

"I just opened the door and there she was." Sasori said but realised that Jiraiya was talking to himself. He looked really distant.

"We have to report to Madara-sama." He finally said acknowledging Sasori.

"Is something wrong?"

"You're the smartest teen we have so I will tell you. You know about Code 2334?"

"The case which involved killing the benefactors of a charity home. The Uzumakis?"

"Yes."

"So, what went wrong?"

"That's their daughter."

"I don't mean to offend you but how are you so sure that's their daughter?"

"No one has redder hair than the Uzumakis. I must alert the Leader." He excused himself as the teen sat on the nearest chair.

The Leader, Uchiha Madara was the founder of the Akat's Assassins. It was an unknown organisation which trained homeless orphans to become assassins. That was how Sasori was got into the organisation. His parents had been killed right in front of him. He had been found by Jiraiya, a respected assassin. There was no one like him. He was the ladies' man and so he was in charge of assassinating most of the women. Jiraiya had trained him and he was the smartest teen in the organisation.

Sasori looked through the window at the redhead. She was breathing normally and a nurse came up to him.

"Do you want to see your sister?"

Sasori looked at her for a moment, ready to decline her as his sister but he said nothing, it might arouse suspicion. He nodded slowly as the woman led him into the all white ward.

"I'll leave you two alone. You should be glad we could save her life."

Sasori sighed as soon as the nurse left. He stared so close at the girl that when she opened her eyes suddenly he staggered backward.

"Where am I?" she asked him with an innocent voice.

"You scared me. You're in the hospital. Can you remember anything?" he asked wondering why and where he got the courage to talk to her.

"He killed mum and dad. They are dead, aren't they? I saw him do it and I didn't say a thing. I was too weak. I couldn't stop him." She said as her tears rolled down her cheeks.

"It's okay. I'm here for you. What's your name?" he asked softly and frowned at himself. When did he ever become soft?

"I'm Uzumaki Naruko. I'm scared. Can you hold my hand and kiss my cheek? Mum always did that."

Sasori found himself taking her palm in his and his lips touching her cold cheeks. For the first time since he saw her, he saw colour rush to her face and she became warm and looked real. She smiled at him as her eyes closed. She was falling into a deep...deep...deep...sleep.
