"Itachi , hurry up ! The food's getting cold ." Konan called out from the kitchen of the large mansion . Itachi had been hiding in his room since their last investigation , still traumatized by it .

When she didn't get a reply , she frowned ."Itachi ! Come down or I'll get rid of all your dango ."

In a flash , he was at the dining table eating like nothing happened .

I smiled happily as I floated above my new aquaintences . They were so funny ! Why would they be afraid of me ? I wouldn't hurt them . I really wanted some friends . Back at the mansion , mom and dad had already gone to the afterlife . I still had to stay here for a bit -psh , 25+ years , most likely- until I went on . It's just the way of life .

I watched them , my body currently in translucent form . It means that nobody would see me unless they have things that could track my body heat . Which is very likely . Giggling slightly , I looked at the black haired man below me .He was so scared of me ! Well , I guess that's the downside of being a ghost . People automatically freak out when they see you .

I then lowered myself and stood beside the girl . I tried to poke her face , but my hand went right through her cheek . My mood saddened . I sighed and sat beside the potty mouthed man , Hidan I think . I tried to lean , but I just went through him like before . "I wish I was a human ," I pouted .

Then I heard the girl yell something . The guy with black hair swooped down then sat at the table and began eating . I smiled a bit , and giggled .

The masked man turned his head ."I swore I heard a girl giggle . Was that you Konan ?"

"No , wasn't me ."

"...Strange ."

The ginger cut in ."Uh , you guys don't realize the possibility that ..."

"...The ghost of Haruno Sakura followed us home ?"

The black haired guy dropped his spoon at the mention of my name .

Itachi started to run around comically , waving his arms in a chibi manner .

He stopped at a corner , and opened his eyes .

Happy green eyes . Familiar green eyes ."Hi !"

"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH ! "

Konan slapped her forehead , and the other members took a step back from shock . "This ," She mumbled ,"Is troublesome ."

She approached the spirit, only for it to back away ."S-Stay away !" Konan's eyes softened . 'Just like me , when I was little ...' "It's okay ... Come here ." she cooed . Sakura started to step closer . When Konan moved to wrap her arms around the girl , they went right through . Sakura's eyes saddened more .

Sakura moved to sit on a couch . It happened to be the seat beside Madara .

"Hey ."

"..."

"Can't believe I'm talking to a ghost ..."

"... Can't believe I'm talking to a human ."

"Hey , Sakura-chan , if you're a ghost , does that make you immortal ?"

"Kinda . I don't know ..."

"What do you mean you lost her ?!"

"S-Sir -"

"Urusai . I don't want to hear anything from you ."

Silence .

"Dismissed ."

"Yes sir ."

Konan sighed heavily as she looked at the ghost in front of her ."What should we do with you now ?" Sakura kept silent , busying herself with Konan's paper origami . At times , she would turn invisible , and re-appear ."Someone must be worried sick searching for you ..."

Konan sat straight ."Well , I guess that's the best option."

"Sakura ..."

"...would you like to join the Akatsuki Ghost Hunters ?''

Sakura didn't respond . Konan got nervous of her silence and played with the hem of her sweater .

"... I ..."

Konan smiled hopefully .

"... I WANT A PONY !"

She anime fell .

'Dear Diary ,

I just met a ghost and then she-'

"ITACHI !"

Itachi sighed . He'd never get to write in his exclusive Dora The Explorer's diary if someone kept interrupting him all the time ."Yes , Konan ?"

"OI ! JUST BECAUSE I HAVE A FEMININE VOICE DOESN'T MEAN I AM ONE , DAMNIT !"

"Yes , Deidara ?''

''Konan wants to talk to you , unnnn ."

"Why'd you prolong your un ?"

"Unnnn , to annoy you unnnn ."

"It's working , I guess , cuz I really feel like punching you now ."

"Unnnn ."

"HNNNNN."

"UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNN."

"Whatever ."
