Hi! It's been a while since I last updated this… you can blame exams for that.

Anyways, I hope you like this chapter, also thanks to BloodyAyame23aka K and SkytheBioarch for reviewing

They were moving bases again, to a village called 'Ame'.
Sakura was being carried in Pein's arms, wrapped up in an extra Akatsuki cloak, and had dozed off a few hours into the road. He carried her preciously and cradled her.

Pain had always loved children along with Konan but never found time to, uh, make one with her. Speaking of Konan... He glanced at her to see she was watching Sakura fondly. Ever since Sakura had been brought to the Akatsuki, Konan had awakened her motherly side.

Pein smirked when Ame came into view, and gently woke Sakura up. Green emerald eyes opened and she rubbed her eyes tiredly. He turned her around in his arms. "This is your new kingdom, Hime."

Sakura stared in awe as she saw the looming towers and the rain falling ever so softly from the sky. "Wow..." she gasped in childish wonder. "I've never touched real rain before...!"

Pein frowned at that and wondered if she stayed inside that horrible house all her life, then leapt off the cliff and said, "Guess we have to fix that then...!"

Childish laughter bubbled from pink lips. He smiled fondly as he remembered when she first laughed. She had been so shocked by the sound but they had reassured her that it was her laugh. They proceeded to make her laugh whenever they could. She lifted her pale hand to the rain and giggled as Pein made the rain warmer. He watched as she exclaimed excitedly," The rain's warm!"

He nodded and hummed as he and the Akatsuki strode through the Village. All of the villagers watched as they passed by. They then saw the little adorable child in their beloved Leader's arms. Immediately they dubbed her "Hime of the Rain" and "Blessed Child of God and Angel".

That day Sakura singlehandedly won everyone's hearts and she never even knew it.

Sakura was provided everything, and would it have been any other child, the pinkette would have become very spoiled. Instead Sakura became the very opposite. She was a quiet child and very affectionate, as well as kind.

Sakura walked through the Akatsuki to meet 'Tobi'.
Now, Sakura knew exactly who he was, yet she didn't mind. To her, he was just ol' crazy uncle Tobi. She loved him very much. Sakura raised her arms in a silent plead to pick her up. Not being able to resist, he followed her directions. She smiled happily. Sakura started to chatter to Tobi of what happened during her day. Tobi or Madara listened carefully and nodded at some parts. Usually, he hated children who talked mindlessly but for Sakura, he made an exception. While Sakura talked though, he wondered if he should get her a child partner her age. He pondered on that thought and decided to talk to Pein about it.

Interrupting Sakura for a second, he asked, "How would you like a playmate your age...?"

Sakura tilted her head. "Playmate...?"

Pein had agreed and was now looking for a suitable child to play with Sakura. Later on Pein would admit he was a bit paranoid of whom to pick for the "job" as he called it. Finally he gathered a suitable number and introduced them to Sakura.

Pein walked in with the children, "Sakura, these are your new playmates...!" he announced.

Sakura tilted her head and watched each of the children intently. Finally Sakura shook her head. "I don't like them Otou-san."
*+*

Later that day, after all the children had gone to their homes, he asked.
"Why not, Hime...?"

"I saw some of them, and they were bullies, besides, one of the girls only came because her otou-san told her to, she didn't really want to be my friend. I don't like it."

Pein was shocked by her wisdom and wondered why he never saw that.

"Do you want to choose your own playmates...?"

Sakura crawled onto Pein's arms and shook her head sleepily. "No. I don't want playmates. I already have my family."

Well, that was short. I'll try to update sometime next week.

Thanks for all the reviews, favs and follows, you don't know how much I appreciate them.

See you!
