A Girl Named Akatsuki

Akatsuki sat next to Pein and Kakuzu. She was staring at all the members, seeing them for the first time in person. She had seen pictures and knew who some of them were already.

The blonde was a artistic bomber by the name of Deidara from Iwa. The youngest member was the dark Uchiha Itachi, from Konoha who killed his whole family, except for his little brother, Uchiha Sasuke. Hoshigaki Kisame was the infamous shark-man from Kiri.

Pein stood and made introductions. The others were Hidan, a follower of Jashin and Akasuna no Sasori, the puppet-master from Suna. When the inductees were introduced, the finder presented them. It went down something like this...

Kisame stood up, "This is Abuki Kintari, from my homeland of Kiri."

She stood and waved half-hearted.

Hidan stood up next, "This sexy little thang is Zebu Nemi, from Kumo.

Akatsuki recognized Nemi as one of her tormentors from her childhood.

She nodded as Hidan slapped her ass.

Pein stood again, "This is Itomi Akatsuki, also from Kumo. She is truly Konan's find."

Deidara laughed at the irony when he heard her name. But he was not the only one. Nemi shifted in her seat uncomfortably, knowing that karma was so about to catch up.

She bowed and shivers went down her spine has Pein rubbed and stroked her. He continued to after she sat down.

Pein remained standing. He spread his arms out wide into the air.

"Then we shall start with Kintari. Stand!"

She stood up, scared. Sasori raised his hand. No one else raised their hand after about a minute, so Sasori shuffled over to her.

"Then it is Nemu."

"Nemi."

He glared at her for correcting him.

Hidan raised his hand. Pein knew what had transpired in the bathroom, so he had a plan to make Akatsuki his and not Kakuzu's. He summoned a small chameleon to bite Kakuzu on the foot to make him raise his hand. It worked brilliantly.

"Since you two are a team, you can keep her. No fight is necessary. Now to Akatsuki."

He grinned maliciously. He had kept her for his own. He raised his own hand. But so did Deidara and Itachi. Damn, in his haste, he forgot about them.

"Well, I'm not really in fighting mood, so how about we settle this another way? Yeah!" Deidara finished in his ending statement.

"No strip-offs." Pein rolled his eyes.

"Un! We could let the lady chose? Yeah!"

"Hmph!" Itachi responded verbally for the first time.

"Its only fair. But if I had to chose, I'd say Leader-sama." She wasn't an idiot.

"Fine, then Akatsuki, you shall stay here, with me."

Deidara crossed his arms and pouted. Itachi just sunk back into the shadows. Pein blinked and told her to fetch everyone dinner. Akatsuki did as her 'master' said. They all ate her dinner in envy of Pein. This was some of the best food they've had in a long time, and Pein could eat it whenever. Most of them commented on that at one point in time or other.
