*Parika's POV*

"I'm coming my love. Wait for me, I'll be there shortly," the familiar voice kept getting closer, repeating the same thing over and over again all night.

I bolted upright when I felt something touch my arm. I looked down to see a hand; my eyes followed the hand up the arm to the face of Sasori.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"I think so," I answered panting "Just a very realistic nightmare."

"It's a good thing you woke up," he was whipping my face with a damp cloth "Deidara just left to get a bucket of ice water."

"Do you mind if I attempt to kill him and possibly succeed?" I asked glaring at the door.

"No," Sasori chuckled as he whipped my arms "But I'll need a new partner if you do."

"You can have me."

"Shut the fuck up!" Hidan yelled, and then there was a large bang.

"Hidan, you're not supposed to attack new members!" Kakuzu yelled back.

I looked at Sasori, who shrugged then we both ran out of the room when there was another large bang. I found Hidan in the living room with Kakuzu, Itachi, and Deidara, while someone was cowering behind Kakuzu and there were two large dents in the wall.

"What the hell is going on?" Sasori asked.

Hidan sent him a glare then saw me and visibly tried to relax "The new member is giving me a headache. All he talks about is "his love", she sounds sexy but it's still annoying."

"New member?" I tilted my head.

"My love!" a voice called, I flinched at the sound.

"She's your love?" all the guys asked simultaneously.

I turned to see Brad running toward me. He gave me a huge hug and started kissing my neck, chest and back up the other side of my neck.

"What the fuck?" I shouted struggling to get out of his grip.

"I missed your smell," he said seductively breathing in my scent.

"Get the hell off of me you fucking perverted bastard!"

"But my lo…" he stumbled backwards coughing up blood.

"I am not, have ever been or will ever be your love," I snarled.

Brad pulled out the kunai I stabbed in his stomach and smirked. That smirk irritated me, the blood that flowed out of Brad now levitated as my hand rose in the air. The blood turned into daggers, I threw my hand forward and the blood daggers went flying toward Brad piercing through his skin like butter. He yelled out in pain when Tobi came running into the room giving me a hug, again the sudden impact made me loose my balance and fall over. I was starting to hate the fact that I couldn't sense his chakra as quickly as the others.

"Why is Parika hurting the innocent man?" Tobi asked loudly in my ear.

"Innocent?" I kicked him off "That bastard deserves to die after what he did to me!"

"You still think about that magical day?" Brad asked slowly getting up "That's so sweet my little kitten and now that we're together we can have many more magical days and nights without interruption."

I was about to attack him again when Pein came in. Cursing his timing and Brad's smug face when I stopped to hold back my next attack.

"Don't you dare Parika," Pein warned, I forgot he could read minds, he sighed "Looks like he won't be your new partner, so he'll join a different team," he looked around "Brad, you'll be with partnered with Tobi while Parika you'll still bounce from team to team like we talked about yesterday until we find a right fit."

I balled up my hands into fists and stormed out of the base; furious that my sister's husband left her no more then a day after their marriage to come find me, now he's joining the Akatsuki. I punched the tree that was in my way, as it compressed from the impact I continued to walk into the forest. I followed the sound of water and came across a waterfall, I walked under it letting the cold water wash over me clearing my mind. I closed my eyes relaxing until I felt Itachi's chakra in the forest, I raised my hand moving my fingers slightly.

* Itachi's POV *

Pein told me to go after Parika, calm her down and bring her back. I bowed respectively and left the base, I saw her figure walking into the forest as a tree was compacting under the pressure of her punch. I followed her further to find her under a waterfall, her hand raised and as her fingers moved I lost control of my body. Unwillingly I joined her under the waterfall, it was ice cold, but I gained control of my body again. I stared at her and her calm face, she seemed so peaceful.

"He drugged me then rapped me," she said calmly but I could hear the bitterness in her voice "My sister fell in love with him at first sight but he fell in love with me at first sight. He kept putting trackers on me and tried to seduce me every chance he got. Last night he married my sister and no matter how many times I tried to tell her about him she wouldn't listen or believe me. That's why I want to kill him, for what he has done to me and so he won't harm my sister."

I stood there in disbelief not knowing what to do or say. After fifteen minutes of silence under the waterfall, Parika jumped down from the stone she had been sitting on at the base and looked at me with sad eyes.

"I'm going back, are you coming Itachi?" she asked.

I took the few steps to be by her side and pulled her into a hug "I'll protect you, the whole Akatsuki will," I said softly then kissed her forehead "Just don't kill him unless you're told to, promise me that."

"No promises," she hissed.

I let her go and we both walked back to the base. As soon as I walked in I saw Tobi trying to hold Brad back as he struggled to free himself to go to Parika.

"Why are you both soaking?" Kisame asked.

"A mind cleansing technique that I do when I'm frustrated," Parika explained "Itachi was sweet enough to join me."

* Deidara's POV *

'That lucky bastard got to spend quality time with Parika,' I thought angrily balling up my fists.

"She's just trying to be nice, calm down," Master Sasori whispered in my ear as if reading my mind.

"Yes Master Sasori," I hissed.

I never even noticed when Parika came from behind to give me a hug, it felt so warm. She then came around the couch and sat down beside me, her warm smile made me blush. She took out a unique pen but no ink, she then bit her thumb, placing the pen in the blood and started to write something in the air. The letters disappeared in an instant, when Parika finished she took out a kunai and cut her wrist but the blood never came pouring out as she leaned against the couch.

"What?" she asked innocently.

"What are you doing?" Master Sasori asked.

"Why isn't the blood pouring out?" Hidan asked.

"I'm creating art," she smiled mischievously "Pein do you have a picture of someone you want dead?"

Pein gave her a picture of Orochimaru; if even possible her mischievous smile grew larger. She dug the pen into the cut on her wrist, then pulling it out she started to draw a life like image of Orochimaru; dead with a thousand cuts and bruises along with a sword piercing his heart. Her movements were swift as the image was drawn in the air, this time it stayed in the air as if on canvas until she created a hand sign then it melted into the ground.

* Parika's POV *

Once my painting was complete I stood up. Lady Tsunade hasn't had the guts to kill Orochimaru for everything he's done to our village, now he won't bother anyone ever again.

"Mission complete, the guy is dead. You'll find his body five miles north of Konoha village."

I left the guys in the living room dumbfounded as I maneuvered my way to the library. I pulled out a book about love, passion, revenge and jealousy; I curled up in the chair and read until Hidan came in to tell me that it was supper time. As I ate supper Brad kept trying to get inside my mind, the more he talked the tighter the grip on my knife became, Itachi must have noticed since he calmly placed his hand on mine to calm me down. I noticed Hidan and Deidara always narrowed their eyes at him every time Itachi touched me or made me giggle or even smile.
