I was shuffling around serving the rest of the lasagna while Zetsu stood in the corner of the kitchen. He wanted to hear what people had to say about the dish he helped on before he sat down himself to eat.
I got a slap on the ass a couple of times but I got used to it. At least it wasn't anything major.
After I was done everyone dived in without me saying anything.

"Th-this is…" Sasori started.
"It's um…" Itachi mumbled. The first thing I heard was Zetsu gulp. He must of have been worried.
"It's the best thing you made so far." Pein wiped his hands with a napkin. I smiled and Zetsu shyly grinned.
"You do know Zetsu helped me make this." I said without thinking.

Everyone stopped eating. Was it because they were scared it was poisonous or it would give them a stomach ache for a century?
"You helped make this?" Kakazu looked at the man in the corner.
"Y-yeah…but only a little. Naruto taught me the basics about how to cook something decent so…" He shyly added.
"Wow….this is amazing!" Tobi shouted with glee. I snickered into my fist.
"It absolutely is." Said Itachi. He began to eat again without worry.
Hidan was the only one to stay silent.
"I hope you like it and…" I blushed but tried to hide it, "thank you…"

Everyone at the table looked at me with questioning stairs.
"for what?" Tobi asked like a kid. He was hoping he hadn't forgot something important. Everyone was having that thought.
"For um…taking me in a month ago." I didn't hate these guys and I wasn't mad that they forgot.
"Really? A month…I thought this would of have been a whole year we care about u so much." Pein snickered.
I blushed harder then sat down. Zetsu followed slowly behind. His eyes shot open when he took a bite. He must of loved it to.

During the dinner everyone was talking about different stories. There was never one large conversation. If so it was about a bad thing or something completely important. The last time there was a large conversation it was what to order on the pizza. It was a day where I had gotten hit by one of the bar intenders. Kohan said I wasn't fit enough to be over a oven. Anyway the point is because of my excellent hearing I can hear and listen to all the conversations at once.

"We have to go." I heard Hidan whisper to Kakazu. I tried to not seem so into there conversation. Hidan hated eavesdroppers but what he hated more were people against his religion. To tell the truth I don't think he likes me very much. I don't know if its because I'm gay and openly about it or because I'm younger than him. I mean he doesn't care for anyone in the house except Kakazu. And that might be because they work together.
Kakazu seems to always have stitches because of what he does for the bar. You ever hear of those people that beat someone up because they have loans to pay? Well that's his part of the job.
He beats up the guy who has money to pay at the bar. But every so often the other poor sap gets a hit on him or cuts him with a knife. Before you know it the other guy is on the ground begging for mercy.
Hidan on the other hand was the man to find the guys. He had contacts. If needed he would help Kakazu fight in the battles.
Both men were strong and I admired them.
I really wanted to be strong to fend off people so I just wont get stomped on and run over like I always am.

"But we just sat down." Kakazu slightly complained. He tried to not seem interested in there own conversation. They try not to admit it but there job is twice as hard as the regular one. But when Pein asks them about it they always say it was a piece of cake. But that's code for it was hard as hell. When they say a job was slow that meant it was so easy that they had nothing to do.
I sighed. I wanted to be strong. I wanted people to at least fear me a little and not just think of me as some thin cute faced kid.

"Damn! What are you fucking looking at!" Hidan yelled at me. I jumped and everything got silent.
"I-I'm well..um." I couldn't even tell I was staring. And his random outburst made me a little shaky.
"spit it out will ya!"
"Stop yelling." Kakazu calmly pulled an the silver haired mans shirt, "He was probably just day dreaming in this direction. Fool."
I just nodded slightly afraid. God why am I so weak!

"you said we have to go so lets go." Kakazu wiped his mouth clean and stood up.
I bit my lip. Why cant I ask them to help me get stronger. Just for a day or maybe for a weekend!
"Fuck yeah I said were going. This is the first lead in weeks." Hidan pushed his chair in then put his hands in his pocket. Slightly smirking.

Without me thinking I stood up, with the chair scraping against the floor. Kakazu looked back at me but Hidan just screamed.
"What you getting up for huh?"
"I'm sorry just… here me out." I was blushing madly. I knew this idea was completely crazy but still.
"Were kind of busy idiot." Hidan Snarled
"I-Its just…" I started, "Could you teach me to fight?"

The room felt cold and it was soundless unless you count Hidan deep breathing.
"What the Jashin do you-" Hidan started but Kakazu told him stop.
"How come."
"B-Because I'm sick of being trampled over and useless in certain situations." My eyes were closed tight as I remembered earlier that day where Sasuke and his gang had cornered me and Sasuke beat me up. Then he took my first…

I hated thinking of it.
"And how would we do that." Kakazu asked.
"Who gives a fuck! We have work to do." Hidan yelled.
"I don't know. I haven't thought that far ahead yet…" I felt my head drop.
Hidan was panting madly and Kakazu smirked gladly.
"Why not come on the job with us?"
Hidan glared at the man with cold eyes, "What the fuck are you thinking!"
"Its going to be slow. This guys been running for weeks so he must be weak. We could have a little entertainment for after."

"I totally disagree!." Pein stood up from his chair, "yes I kind of agree that Naruto-kun could learn to fight, but going on a job with you is unacceptable!"
Hidan grinned in agreement but I think it was because he just didn't want me to go.
"That's where I think your wrong Pein." Itachi sighed, "Naruto is in a disadvantage everyday because we cant always be next to him. If he learns to fight, even if its only a day, he should take it."
"Not to mention this would be the first thing he would get taught because he's out of school." Sasori took another bite of food with a blank expression.
Pein was silent but I saw his eyes become softer. Was he actually going to let me do this?

"Go ahead Naruto." Pein sat down in his seat and Hidan became furious.
Instead of having a tantrum he left the room. He knew he couldn't disobey Pein and he didn't even want to try.
"Come on Naruto…and bring a water." Kakazu followed after the man and I rushed to the fridge.
Grabbing a water bottle I slightly blushed. "Thank you again!" I yelled then ran after the two.
-

During the car ride it was mostly silent. Not only was Hidan pissed because I was going but Kakazu made me sit in the front!
I almost screamed at him, "What are you thinking! Do you want Hidan to kill me in my sleep." But I didn't.
Hidan huffed again to break the silence.
"So Naruto do you have any questions before I tell you the basics?" Kakazu asked.
"What type of questions? You mean about money?" I softly teased him. That's all this man cared about.
"No about…the job or the bar anything?" He seemed like he had something to share. But I didn't know if I should really ask. Was he doing this to stop the creepy silence. Then I had it…

"How did the bar appear and the people in it?" I asked.
"For one thing it always wasn't a bar." Kakazu turned the corner.
"What do you mean?"
"It used to be a company." Kakazu smirked.
A company? Okay so now I know he has a story to tell. Company equals money.
"We were once publishing and clothes design company. We weren't that high but we were high enough for people to at least buy stocks off of it." I had a feeling Kakazu was going to drool very soon.
"so what happened." I asked, Hidan watched the scenery outside the window.
"we got crushed about 12 years ago." Kakazu frowned as he said this, "we hope to get back up there but to do so we have to get money. So we started the bar."

While he said this I couldn't quite understand. If they were trying to get money then why did they bring me in?
"But some of the Akatsuki kind of don't want to go back to business life. But I could always hope right?" Kakazu grinned.
"As for the people… Pein Kohan Hidan Sasori and I were the original Akatsuki. The rest we just brought in. people who didn't think they belonged. People who actually felt pain in there life."
I was waiting for the man to say more but it didn't happen. He was done speaking. I slid down in my seat thinking of what he just said.

"I guess I should tell you this before we get there." Kakazu re-broke the silence. I watched Hidan in the mirror. When he saw me he snarled.
"The job we do is dangerous. So don't get in the mess. Stay back or….even better stay in the car." Kakazu frowned. Hidan tapped his shoulder and pointed. Okay what was he now? A mime!
"if something does happen call me. If I don't come don't just stand there and sit in a ball, use your instincts. But always stay calm. If your not calm you will die. That's the basics of fighting."
I gulped quietly and I felt my body shiver. Okay so first it was Oh yeah its going to be slow but now its you might die! Seriously. Why did I come here anyway!

"Damn! Finally! I was getting sick of hearing you girls talk." Hidan put his hand on the car door. Kakazu locked it.
"No. You stay here idiot. If your going to go Naruto goes to got it!" Finally Kakazu left the car hands in fists, "If I don't come back in 12 min you know what to do!"

"What did he mean you know what to do?" I didn't know if I was talking to myself or to Hidan. Either way he was silent.
Okay now I'm getting pissed.
"Okay what is wrong with you!" I spun to look at the silver haired man in the back seat, "How come you hate me? Is it because I'm gay!"
Hidan glared at me with death stares, "Being gay is against my religion yes."
"So what about everyone else! Do you hat Sasori Itachi Pein and even Zetsu!"
"No they just annoy me."
"Then why Me!" I actually felt like crying. This was the first time I didn't know why someone hated me. Yes Sasuke was easy and so was john and Zack but Hidan? He's so confusing.
"Just because." Hidan wasn't yelling and he was whispering. I don't know if it was because the lights outside or the dim lighting in the car but Hidan looked like he was blushing. But I threw that aside. I mean who does he think he is! He doesn't even know why he hates me. He just does!

"Fine. Just perfect!" I was ready to sit back around in the seat and cry when Hidan used his strength to pull me to the back of the car. I didn't know what to do. Was I to scream? Was he even going to kill me. I mean I know I kind of pushed him to far but still.
He flipped me over so I was underneath him.
"I hat e you because you make me break my religion." Hidan whispered with a slight blush on his face, "It doesn't matter if another person is gay but if your yourself is gay that goes against it."
"So then why do you hate me dammit!"
"I hate when you stair at me and I hate it when your by me." Hidan wasn't like his usual self.
"What are you getting at!" I yelled
"I hate when everyone touches you and I hate when you smile." Hidan's face was getting closer to mine.

The silver haired man started to kiss my cheek then kissed down my neck. I shivered. He looked me in the eyes.
"I-I thought u said you weren't gay…" I blushed bright and slightly moaned from the man teasing my neck. Damn why am I so sensitive!
"I'm not gay…." HE blushed and scooted away from me so his back was to the window "I'm bi…but all because of you."

I blinked in confusion. Wait did he just say he was…bi? But still that means he's kind of gay….right?
"It was because of you I started to go against the religion." He tried t cover his blushed face with his hand. I boosted my self up a little. "With your damn cute face and nice ass."
My face got warm, "So I tried to stay away from you, screaming my frustration out at you, thinking that my feelings toward guys would go away." Hidan continued without staring at me, "Sorry…"
"Hidan…" I whispered. What was I to say? Its okay being Gay? That your religion doesn't make you?

I just don't know. The silver haired man slumped in the corner of the car blushing while watching the light posts outside.
"Oh Hidan…don't start getting weak on me!" I laughed as I jumped on him.
"W-What are you doing!" HE screamed.
"Nothing!" I laughed, "I'm just happy you don't hate me for being me!"
"I never said I didn't hate you! Dammit!" He screamed at me. His blush getting deeper.
"You didn't have to…I just know now." I stuck my tongue out at the man. Thanks to this little experience I know how to work another person in the Akatsuki! He's just like Deidara. Dei-Dei is fun to make embarrassed and I guess Hidan is to.
I couldn't stop smiling.

Right after Hidan had pushed me off himself there was a large crash. It wasn't from a gun or anything like that. It sounded more as , like in fighting movies, a lot of wooden crates falling down.
Hidan swore under his breath as he took my hand and dragged me out of the car.
"Hi-Hidan! What are you doing!" I yelled at him.
"Just do as Kakazu says and try not to get involved." He whispered angrily.
"If you don't want me to get involved why didn't you leave me in the car!"

"Because Kakazu said to not leave you alone. If something would happen to you because you were alone…" Hidan brought m to the front of an abandoned building, "Just try to stay un scene. And if something does happen and we cant help you, use your instincts and just stay calm."
I just nodded. What did I really get myself into by being here?
"Well if it its the tracker." One of the men said in the dark.

"well it wasn't so easy finding you in the first place Sora. Running around like you were." Hidan snarled
"Its not like I wanted a death wish." Sora smiled, "But I also wasn't running."
"Oh really? Then what's it called when you move place to place hoping not to get caught." I stood as still as I could while inching back from the fight that was going on.
He said he didn't want me to get involved and I think that's the reason why Hidan wasn't fighting right away. He was stalling so I could get back.

I sighed a breath of relief when I felt my back hit something hard. I made it to the wall….or I thought.
Walls don't normally more right? Or…breath.
A hand was placed over my mouth and Hidan heard my scream turn into mumbles.
"Naruto!" HE screamed.
"Like I said I wasn't running." Sora began walking up to Hidan, "I was more of….gathering." The lights suddenly turned on. From the looks of it there were like 8 guys in the building All snarls on there faces.
"Tch…So this is what you were doing." Hidan grumbled.

"See…you have a lot of enemies you know. From all the time you would practically kill the people that didn't pay. And so after they would pay you back they would also have to pay hospital fees for there injuries almost leaving them bankrupt." Sora smirked and the mans hand held a firmer grip around my mouth.
His breath was on my neck, "hey cutie. Long time no fuck." I automatically remembered the voice. It was the man that almost raped me two weeks ago.
I began to squirm and he kneed me in the back, "Stop fiddling." I couldn't see his face but I knew he was grinning.

"Ah. I see that there's a new member of your squad. Hey Hidan?" Sora grinned at me and Hidan growled.
"Don't lay a finger on him!"
"Who said I was going to lay a finger?" Sora walked up to me slowly and looked into my blue eyes.
"IF you hurt him ill-"
"You will do nothing." Sora quickly grinned at Hidan, "Because you are absolutely helpless. Kakazu already lost." His eyes looked to the wall.

Hidan quickly looked and saw the man laying on the floor breathing but softly unconscious. He was still awake enough to hear what was going on.
My eyes shakily looked at Kakazu. I-I can do something. Cant I?
Instincts right?
"So your name is Naruto. You don't look like anything special. Why are you with the silver tongued man over there." Sora's face was so close to mine I could almost smell his shampoo….which is just weird.
I screamed at myself to do something.
I bit down, hard, on the mans hand. I think I even might of drew blood.
"S-Shit! You damn brat!"

Then I did the cheapest move. I kicked them both in the crotch. I know it isn't that big of a deal but seriously I'm 16 and….weak.
Hidan looked at me with a smirk and I thought he was going to start laughing, but then everyone that was in the background started to mob up on him.
"Wake up Kakazu!" Hidan screamed at me.

I did as I was told and ran to the man on the ground. I had to dodge a few people, but other than that I made it to him in no time. Every time someone tried to get to me while I was by the other male Hidan punched them to make himself the human target.
"Ka-Kakazu!" I stuttered. I began to shake him. He moaned as if he wanted to stay sleeping.
"Wake up! Hidan's getting hurt and…they tried to hurt me. Just wake up!" the mans eyes began to slowly open but I knew he was still sort of out of it.
"Do-Don't cry about it. For one thing Hi-Hidan likes pain." Kakazu began to laugh.
"This is no time for laughing! Please get up and start helping." I blushed, "I'm….scared and I want to get out of here!" I didn't want to admit it but it was the truth. Yes maybe it was sort of exciting but I also didn't want those two getting hurt

Kakazu looked at me with one eye for a bit, "Fine. We will finish this and get out soon." Just sit over here and observe. Its good lessons on what to do…if you watch me. But to learn what not to do is mostly watch the fool." I sat down like I was told.
My breathing had calmed down but I was half conscious. I didn't particularly know what just happen.
Supposedly, Sora, the man they were after had made a ambush for Hidan and Kakazu. And me…I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
What surprised me the most was that I had actually done something. Even if it was a cheep move.
I Saw the people falling one after another and soon enough Sora was the last one to be left fighting. It was surprising on how much power the two males had. Yes I knew that they were strong but I didn't think that they could face off 8 people at once.

"Damnit! How did you guys do it! I planned it all out. You two would be the ones to get hurt, to almost die." Sora screamed with anger.
"Well you didn't count one thing did you." Kakazu licked some of the blood off of his hand.
"And if you planned that one thing we might of died." Hidan brought out his three bladed knife.
"You made Naruto scared….we can never forgive that."
"Naruto-Kun." Kakazu looked at me, "Close your eyes will you."
Listening to his commands I closed my eyes, but after a few seconds of them torturing the male I closed my ears as well.
I don't know why I had to. It was just scaring me a little. Reminding me of something on the tip of my tongue.
Maybe it was from a bad dream that I had a long time ago. Or maybe it had something to do with…him.

I bit my lip. Hoping that they would finish and we could leave all ready.
I felt a tap on my shoulder. Then a rough grab.
I whimpered.
"Why you do that fool!" Kakazu yelled at Hidan. I opened my eyes.
"What? He wasn't listening…and I poked him. he still didn't respond."
"I-Its okay…" I stood up a little shaky. Why was I so scared for a few min.? "Can we go home."

"Sure Naruto." Kakazu patted my back and we walked out of the building, with out turning back. For a few seconds I thought there was going to be a sort of explosion. You know, cool guys walk away from flames.

Okay so this was more of an informational Chapter. It tells you alot of the past of the akatsuki.
And the next chapter is about naruto's past so its not really yaoi filled. sorry
