"You can get another one Hidan." Pein said stoically, his ringed eyes glaring at Hidan.
"Tch, I don't fuckin' think so! Do you know what I had to go through to get that rosary! Now it might be defiled by that fucking child!" Hidan yelled, running his pale hands through his moonlit hair.
"Hidan…May I remind you that she is my child…and that I could murder you in the most disturbing way possible for defying me, even if you are 'immortal'." Hidan frowned.
"Keh…Whatever, Whore." Hidan stated walking out of the room.
"What a fuckin' sadist…" Hidan mumbled coolly while walking down the long eerie hallway.
"I'm getting it back…" Hidan said to himself before he jumped out of his window, landing swiftly on his feet.
"Damn…I never get used to that shit."He shook his left foot to get some feeling back into it. He groaned.
He started to run toward the nearest village, Konoha. He whizzed pass the trees and falling leaves. He tried to sense the little chakra Sakura had and followed it. He caught a heavy vibe as he was running, he knew it was Sakura.
"…Strong chakra for a fuckin' brat." He whispered to himself as he kept running through the forest. Once he got to the large village he jumped roof to roof, surprisingly, undetected. He felt Sakura's chakra signature and smirked.
'She should be right down…' He was interrupted from his thoughts seeing a middle classed woman eyeing Sakura. A woman with short brown hair picked her up and held her as if she were her own.
"Ne? Raikou-kun…" The woman softly called her husband's name. The slightly opened door of the medium sized house widened a bit more and revealed a man around his late 20's with rust colored hair.
"Bara-chan? What are you-" Hidan watched the scene intently and prayed to Jashin that he didn't get caught. Bara looked at the pendent around Sakura's neck.
"Jashinist?" Bara looked to Raikou and her eyes lit up.
"Raikou-kun, can we keep her?" Bara looked up to Raikou with her luminous green eyes. Raikou sighed.
"Bring her in…it's cold out here. We'll take her to the police corps tomorrow and ask if anyone lost her." Raikou said quietly, turning and walking into the house. Bara looked around to see any traces of who left the baby. Not finding any she went back into the house. Hidan let go of his long held breath and his prayers to Jashin that he didn't get caught. Hidan sighed.
"Fine brat…you can have it, but next time I see you," Hidan started off onto the roofs and out of the village as fast as he could. "You better have become a Jashin worshipper."
'I call the brat.' Hidan thought to himself.
6 Years Later
A young girl sat on the dusty ground crying, her short pink hair covering her eyes.
"Aww, look at the little baby Sakura crying." A girl with dark purple hair teased, while kicking dirt in Sakura's face. Two other girls were on either side of her laughing.
"S-Stop it!" She whimpered, rubbing her now stinging eyes. Little did they all know the pink haired princess's red haired savior was lounging in a nearby tree.
'She's really Leader-sama's daughter?' The red head asked himself. He shook his head and readied his hands. Soon little blue chakra strings were coming from the tips of his fingers. Two puppets from behind his back moved with all his finger movements. He motioned his fingers in a swift fashion and soon the puppets were down by both of Sakura's sides. Sakura's eyes widened.
"Wha-?" She was interrupted when one the girls screamed. The purpled haired girl in the middle pointed a shaky pale finger at one of the puppets. The features on the puppet were pretty frightening. Dried blood was around the sides of the mouth and the puppets sides. Knifed hands were glistening in the sun and were pointing at them. The puppet had long, shaggy brown hair and its eyes were wide.
"Wh-What is that thing!" The girl in the middle looked like she was about to die of fear. Sakura looked over to her side.
"A-Ami," Ami looked at Sakura. "It's a puppet." Sakura said while cocking her head to her side. Ami screamed and ran, along with the other two girls. The puppet turned toward Sakura and she backed up a little, only to be bumped in the back by another puppet. She let out a little 'eep' sound and looked in the back of her. On its forehead it had a scorpion.
"Uh…I'm gonna-" Sakura got up and dusted herself off. "Go now." She said, smiling awkwardly. Suddenly, the red headed man jumped from the tree and landed in the back of Sakura. She let out another little 'eep' sound and whipped her little form around. She kicked the man in his knee.
"Gah!" Sasori faltered back a bit.
'Guess she is Leader-sama's daughter.' He looked at her face. She was red with fury but her eyes showed fear.
"W-who are you?" Sakura's shaky voice asked. The man's eyes widened.
'Should I tell her my name?' He thought, panicking. A voice rung throughout his head.
'Oh and Sasori…Tell her your name and I shall remove your heart and crush it in my hand.' The Leaders voice from their earlier conversation.
"Uh…Well-" Sasori started but was soon interrupted by Sakura.
"What is it?" Sasori could tell that Sakura was getting impatient.
"Its Sasori…" Sasori mentally slapped himself. He bent down to Sakura's level. "Mind not telling anybody about this little meeting here?" Sakura nodded as Sasori patted her head and smiled.
"Here," Sasori reached in the back of him and picked up one of the puppets from behind him, the one that said Scorpion. Sakura held the puppet in her arms looking up to Sasori.
"Y-Your letting me keep this?" Sasori smirked.
"Practice with it," Sakura looked at him. Sasori sighed. "When you kicked me, it-" He hesitated. "…Hurt…I want you to get stronger." Sakura still stared at him.
"Don't look at me like that!" Sasori said, getting nervous. Sakura set the puppet down and dropped to her knees.
"I can't do it…" Sakura whispered. She pushed the puppet back over to Sasori. Sasori looked shocked.
"I don't even know how to target a kunai knife right. I can't do it, I've read about how puppet masters control these things. I can't do it." Sakura lowered her head so that her bangs were covering her face. Sasori sighed and plopped down on his butt, looking up into the sky. He soon came up with an idea.
"Hey," Sakura looked up. "What if I trained you a bit? Then you wouldn't find it so hard…" Sasori trailed off while scratching the back of his head. Sakura smiled and hugged Sasori.
"Thank you!" Sakura exclaimed quietly. Sasori was taken aback by the hug but soon returned it. He felt something between them…something hard, and metal. He released Sakura from the hug and looked at the pendant hanging loosely around Sakura's neck. It was a silver upside down triangle in a circle.
'She's a Jashinist?' He looked at her glowing peach colored face and glimmering emerald eyes. 'She looks way too innocent.'
"Sakura!"
Sasori took this as a warning that someone was looking for Sakura. He looked around and thought for a minute.
"Meet me here in two days, this exact spot." Sasori pushed the puppet over to her. Sakura looked at him and nodded.
"O-Ok…" Sasori nodded and disappeared into the trees. Sakura watched as he left.
"Sakura! Where were you?" A young girl with short blonde hair jogged over to Sakura. Sakura looked up at the girl and smiled a little.
"I was here the whole time Ino-chan, and something strange happened, this-" Sakura paused.
'Mind not telling anybody about this little meeting here?' She remembered Sasori's words.
"Well?" Ino put her hands on her small hips. Sakura shook her head.
"I saw this really cool flower," Sakura frantically searched her mind for something else to say. "So I decided to come over here and get it, but it disappeared." Sakura lied.
"Oh, Ok…It was probably a tulip or something," Ino turned and started to walk away. Sakura stood up and looked at the puppet by her feet. She sighed and picked it up. It was pretty heavy but she could manage for the time being.
"Ne? Sakura what's that?" Sakura showed her the puppet and Ino yelped in fear.
"Kill it with fire!" Ino screamed, running away.
"Ino-chan! Wait!" Sakura tried to catch up with Ino, but her fear caused her to run even faster.
"Ino!" Sakura yelled, but it was hopeless. Ino was long gone.
Sakura sighed, and looked up into the sky.
"Sasori…Thank you." She said while walking off.
Later…Akatsuki Base.
"Leader-sama thinks you've been punished enough," A blonde man came into the dark, dank room. As he came closer into view the door widened to reveal Sasori, his cloak ripped off of his body. All that remained of his clothes were his pants and sandals. He tried to raise his head just to lower it back down; it was too much pain going through his body. He clenched his teeth as he forced his head up.
"What did you do anyway, Hm?" The blonde man came over and started to undo his bonds that constricted his wrists and ankles. Scars were all over his chest and sweat rolled down his forehead, down his neck and onto his chest. He licked his somewhat chapped lips.
"Nothing." Sasori let out a grunt in pain as he tried to stretch his arm.
'Damn it…How did I get caught?' Sasori growled.
Somewhere Else in The Akatsuki Base.
"I hate being a snitch," A moonlit haired man spoke. " But I called her." The man said, walking down the hall. His purple-pink eyes glinted with mischief.
