7. Siren Effect

Madara sat staring at the orange-haired pierced man in front of him with his best poker face on. He had just recieved word that Kagome and her 'partners' were on their way back to the base, and were almost here now- considering they hadn't traveled far, they just traveled far back in time. And though he was extremely reluctant to admit it, he couldn't help but feel a bit cornered.

What was this woman doing? He's becoming thoroughly confused... another thing he was becoming annoyed with, and more willing to demolish as soon as possible. He already knew she was planning on doing things her way... He just ... needs to figure out her game's rules before it begins, or he'll lose... Yes, that was it, he didn't want to lose... it was just going to be another blow to his pride which he had already slowly let the shield of,

Nagato, Pein - whichever he seemed to call himself now days - seemed to be on a different train of thought completely, though; as Madara eyed the man with curiosity as to why the man was continually pining after the girl even though he barely remembered it moments after her affect... But, this time Madara was shocked, and even more annoyed to see that her affected hadn't even worn off this time... Madara scowled.

"Why does she want her past alliances here?" Pein mumbled to himself with a disapproving frown tugging his full lips into a puppy-like pout, his eyes as wide as saucers. "I didn't think that she'd actually get them to come, let alone be able to find them."

Madara rolled his eyes, only one was visible to Pein anyways.

"'Trust no one' seems to be her life's philosophy," he answered, partially to get Pein to get over it... whatever it was. "Except for the two men she's dragging along with her, of course; we'll see how this ends up."

Pein nodded once with a long look on his face. That does make sense, in a way. But he couldn't help the small sense of emotion that rose in thought over two more men lazing about with their new recruit and adviser. Or maybe that was just his past primal emotion of possession? The one which he'd only felt when he was younger and tried to protect his childhood friends...? Though.. this time he was a bit disturbed to feel that the emotion was slightly stronger than he'd remembered. No, this was different... it was like a - a taught wire being pulled tighter like some type of connection was made between the two of them... like he was clung to her... No. It was even more disturbing - though inevitable, than that.

It was raw need.

Kisame and Itachi kept looking back at her with curious eyes as they made it to the rocked-built-and-disquised doors of the base, Itachi finally turning back around to activate the opening of the doors after realizing that they needed to get in. Though despite Itachi's lead of showing Kisame that staring for too long they'd get caught, Kisame's eyes stared at Kagome like he was dissecting the poor woman, trying to figure her out, but Naraku and Sesshoumaru had instantly fixed him with a questioning gaze, as Kisame turned his eyes away from Kagome with even more curiosity clouding his mind - more questions than answers in his thoughts.

Both he and Itachi had soon opted earlier on after picking up the youkai duo, that it'd be in their best bet to ignore the duo, and keep their eyes on their new interesting prize. They both didn't know what was up, but after a few hours of being around the dark priestess they felt themselves grow more... animalistic ... than they ever were, and it seemed the longer they stayed around her, the more the behavior scheme was brought out.

Itachi snuck one last suspicious look at the woman before sliding the doors open quietly, while his partner just stared at the woman, period.

"We're here, Kagome-san," Kisame chirped, though his false cheery mood was horrible, Kagome just laughed.

"In we go," she murmured, letting Itachi lead the way in as she grabbed for Kisame's wrist, making said man look at her in mild surprise. "C'mon Naraku-kun, Sesshou-kun."

Even though she was speaking back at them, she ended up wrapping her arm comfily around Kisame's own as they marched down the corridors.

Sesshoumaru had confirmed that he wasn't planning on living in the base, proclaiming that he had a palace nearby that he built in the past, long long time ago. And, Naraku had told his long-time partial mate that he wouldn't be able to stay anywhere else, so he's going to have to stick around her, much to her mild surprise.

"We're sorry we'll have to leave you, for now," Itachi looked down remorsefully, his black eyes glinting in something even he wasn't sure of feeling. "But, if you need us, we're in the room directly across from yours."

An uncontrollable smirk revealed Kagome's familiar strange canines through tightly closed lips as she looked worriedly between Kisame and Itachi, briefly being aware that Sesshoumaru had wrapped his arms around her waist a little tightly.

"She'll be fine," Naraku snapped quietly, letting his crimson eyes slide down the corridor, then back to the youkai's arms that were wrapped tightly around his Kagome, though he didn't really care enough right now to remove them. It must be the first of the five phases of the new moon, he sighed, almost regretting mating the miko, because the after affects weren't really pleasant for him, with the way he was acting.

His tainted blood had merged with hers to create a aphrodite-like siren every full moon, uncontrollably.

And unfortunately, he was under her spell as well.

Kagome had led the two easily down the corridor after dispatching Sesshoumaru's strongly muscled arms, her memory had easily stored the long distance of the rocky corridor in her mind whenever they had left. She mentally prepared herself for the inevitable meeting with the two leaders of the Akatsuki, the one where she let's them in on her secret.

She breathed deeply in, her arms at her sides before she lifted them and slid the door open, not even bothering to knock as she walked in and closed the door behind her. Sesshoumaru flanking her right, Naraku her left.

"Madara-sama, Pein-sama," she nodded to the two figures that were placed at Pein's desk - Pein actually sitting at his desk, and Madara sitting on his desk, each with differing expressions on their faces.

Madara looked as if he was relieved, though for what, she didn't know. Pein, on the otherhand was subtly giving off a cold air as he eyed her two new companions. But, it was Madara that had spoke in greeting to her, rather than the pseudo Akatsuki leader.

"Kagome-sama," his voice lilted. "Two new players to the game?"

"Is there a problem with that?" Kagome questioned with a lopsided grin, dismissing the fact that he was acting as if they weren't even in the room with them.

Madara glared uncertainly at Kagome before moving his gaze to the two men behind her before quirking a brow behind his orange spirally mask.

"Of course, not, Kagome-chan," Pein murmured quietly, keeping his head down so that his expression was unreadable.

Kagome sighed again and made way to move to the way, leaning against it carefully, her Akatsuki cloak rubbing against the wall and her back uncomfortably. She steeled herself. It was time for her to tell them. "The black haired one is Naraku..." she looked at the spider hanyou, then she moved her gaze to the white haired full inu youkai. "And he's Sesshoumaru... And..." For the first time since she'd been captured to arrive to that place, Kagome was at a loss for words, and feeling nervous as everyone's eyes moved to her in querie.

"And?" Pein raised his head to smirk slightly at the flustered woman.

"The only reason I'm still alive in this time is because I'm not fully human any longer..." she rushed out her mouth, lowering her head to stare at the suddenly interesting floor tiles that were the same golden brown color as the rest of the walls in the base. "Due to a mating mishap and the after effect of the Shikon no Tama, I gained the pleasure of becoming a siren on every new moon... for all five phases..."

Both Pein and Madara stared at her in shock as they processed the information that she gave them.

That wasn't what they were expecting, actually they weren't expecting her to tell them anything of what had happened in her past at all...

AN: Sorry for it being so short. I'll try to full up the length. It's quality vs. quantity here, though. remember.
