………………………………......................meow……………………………….....

Itachi had gone to report the mission findings to Pein as soon as they got back. He had left Naru with Kisame and had forced himself to walk away without any parting words of farewell or encouragement. He couldn't allow himself to be weak. He wasn't going to become weak to emotions. He is an Uchiha and Uchiha's don't have emotions to get in their ways.

The report had gone well in the beginning. The slave village would be taken over shortly. Probably by Deidara and Sasori since they who were usually sent on this kind of mission. Deidara and Sasori were the perfect team to put fear into a village. Deidara with his bombs and Sasori with his puppets. Of course Deidara did usually try to get carried away. Blowing up the village won't help them take over. They needed people alive or the take over would make no sense. Without people a village was useless to the organization.

"So Itachi now that we are done with the usual, do you want to explain what that is in my lounge." Itachi held back the flinch from Pein's cold voice. He knew Pein wouldn't be happy that he had brought Naruto back with him. God Why didn't he leave him in a village. Oh yeah it had to do with Naru-chan's tears. Why was he so weak.

"Well Pein-sama, its like this…"

……………………………….....meow………………………………

Itachi had left and Naruto defiantly wasn't happy about it. Fishy had carried him into some kind of living room setting. Which to Naruto's displeasure was crowded and lucky him he was the center of attention.

"Oh how cute. un." A blonde haired girl had jumped up from her sit on her couch to run over to him and the fishy. She was making cooing noises to him and patting his head like the fishy had brought home a puppy and a little boy. It was quiet strange behavior even for a girl.

"Naru likes the pretty lady. Her hair's the same color as Naru's." Naru covered himself in his mask. Smiling up at the girl before him and reaching out to be taken from the fish and into the others hands.

Whack.

"you little brat I'm not a women. Un." Oh my god the yellow women hit me. Naru didn't have to fact the tears. It actually hurt. No one had hit him in so long. not since he had killed off his abusive father. He just wasn't expecting it to happen. He had complimented her so nicely.

"Kisame-sama the mean lady hit Naru. Naru didn't mean to do something bad. Naru sorry." Naru let the tears streak his face as he gripped back onto fishy's cloak. Letting himself appear as innocent and as cute as ever so that he could win these people over. He didn't want to be discovered yet.

"Shh it's alright Naru. Deidara is a man, ok. He doesn't like to be called a women." The Fish was laughing inside Naru could tell. It was in his voice. In his eyes. Naru wasn't sure if it was because he had called the blond "man" a women or if he just liked watching Naruto get smacked. But it was defiantly a better atmosphere then the one that had been draped over them the journey here. However he was missing Itachi. He wasn't sure why but it felt like a part of him was missing.

……………………..meow…………………

"so I send you into a slave action and you buy yourself a sex slave. May I ask why you didn't just kill or at least ditch it somewhere." Pein was enjoying himself. Itachi was looking so cute. Unlike his usual self. Normally he would be refined and blank, but at this moment he looked so confused and angry at himself. It seemed poor Itachi didn't know why he had done what he had and it was pissing the poor teen off.

Pein himself had no problem with Itachi bringing back a sex toy. He off course was a little confused on why it was a child. He had never thought Itachi would be the kind into child. Especially since Itachi didn't seem to like them at all whenever they had to journey to a near by village for supplies. he always seemed to hold them in disdain. Not out right hate but close to it.

Of course Pein would throw the boy out in less then a second if he started to effect Itachi's missions. He didn't want or need anymore problems then he had. thank you very much. It was bad enough that the members in his organization where totally insane. Each and everyone of them it seems. He had thought that at least Itachi was sane, but it seemed that wasn't to be. Oh well. At least these crazies were useful. But a sex toy was only useful to it's owner and if the boy got in the mission's way then he was going to be thrown away. Pein did not need something that wasn't useful.

"Well Pein-sama, I mean that…"

………………………………..............meow……………….

Naruto had been stuck in this room for almost an hour now. It hadn't been terrible of course. No one had smacked him again. But it had become tiresome. Naru was tired of all the acting. He wasn't completely used to wearing a mask for such lengths of times. Back in the old slave hold he had been able to be himself. Scaring the slaves. Having the employees doing his bidding. Yeah those where the good days. But here no one knew his reputation. No one knew he was a murder. No one knew he was a demon. He could have a fresh start. He would be able to learn all about being a ninja and then he would be able to take care of himself.

However he hadn't been expecting a hole in the mountain. He had though to be taken to a ninja village. where he would be able to become one of the ninjas. He was hoping to be able to disguise himself as one of them. But instead he was inside a mountain. With a bunch of crazies.

The Blondie (who was totally a women no matter how many times she said she was a man Come on she had long yellow hair and a girlie figure. There was no way she was a man. Naru defiantly would need proof before he would believe that. ) was weird. She had mouths on her hands, that licked him. The licked his face like a over eager puppy. Even while Blondie had been mad at him for calling her a women they had still been licking him. And one of the strangest things is they made fire works. Blondie would feed them some play do and then they shape it into little birds and then boom. they would explode and fireworks would appear. It was cool. Even if it was weird. It wasn't hard to smile and laugh at the Blondie's actions.

The other man, Puppetman, who had been sitting on the couch. He played with puppets it seemed. In fact he lived inside a puppet. Naruto could smell him but it was strange because he could also smell wood and oil. Naruto knew he was in fact human because his senses told him so, but he also knew that the man sitting next to Blondie wasn't real. Puppetman lived inside a puppet weird. Defiantly weird and he didn't seem to talk very much. All naruto had heard him speak about had been to tell Blondie to play nice. Not to blow up the base. Not to blow up the child. It seemed he was kind of a nag, maybe he was Blondie's babysitter.

The only other new man in the room was Money. He was sitting in the corner. He had only spoken to Fish to complain about the cost of another mouth. After ranting for a while and being interrupted by Blondie a dozen times Money had just started to mumble and finally left to sit at a table in the comer. Playing with a calculator and mumbling under his breath. Strange man.

So far no one had been out right mean to him. Of course it doesn't look like everyone was happy to see him. And they defiantly weren't jumping for joy at his arrival. However Blondie was already wrapped around his finger. He seemed to think Naru was cute.

………………………………...................meow………………….

"Again Again. Naru want to see birdie go boom."

Itachi and Pein had walked into the lounge to the Naru-chan's cries of joy and the sound of Deidara's clay explosions. The first being a wonderful sound to Itachi's mind, the second kind of scarying him. What was Deidara blowing up.

Walking in to see Naru clapping and bouncing on Deidara's lap as he watched little clay birds explode in the air in front of him did not make Itachi's night. In fact if he was willing to admit it to himself it pissed him off. He didn't like that Naru liked someone besides him. Kisame had carried Naru here but Naru had never seemed happy about. In fact he had seemed to pout the entire time.

Itachi couldn't stand the thought that Naru might replace him. It made him so mad inside. Especially since he couldn't just run across the room and steal his Naru-chan away from the crazy bomber. No he was an Uchiha and Uchihas don't get jealous. At least they don't show that they are jealous. So instead of breaking his blank unemotionally face he had to stand here at the doorway as he listened to Pein address the room.

………………………………........meow…………………

"Deidara stop the bombing and put the sex toy down."

Naru stopped clapping as he looked over towards the new man who had entered. Earrings. Lots and Lots of Earrings. How weird. Was being weird a must be for living here. How strange.

"Yes Pein-sama. Un. I was just playing with the cutie. Un. Can he stay. Un." Blondie had stopped his fireworks display but he hadn't put him down yet instead his hands had gone back to licking his checks and patting his hair.

"Yes he can stay but right now I think he should be put to bed. It's already past midnight. Itachi he can stay in your room since you are the one who bought him." Earrings couldn't be serious. He would get to stay with Itachi again. Naruto wasn't sure if he loved that or hated that. He wanted to be close to Itachi again. But he also didn't want to. When he was next to Itachi he seemed to forget that Itachi was supposed to be just a pawn. Plus he always got weird feelings in his tummy when Itachi was around.

"Yes Pein-sama." It seemed Itachi wasn't going to be complaining.

………………………………....meow…………………..

Itachi sighed in his head as he finally was able to walk over and pick up his Naru-chan. He was going to just ignore the fact that he keep calling the child his. It was too nice to have him back in his arms to worry about that fact now. It gave him a sense of coming home when he held the angel in his arms. Yes it was going to be hard to sleep in the same room as the little one, but it was better than having to worry about his Naru-chan in someone else's room.

No one was going to touch his angel. His innocent little angel who was looking up at him with uncertain eyes. Eyes that seemed to pierce his heart. It was his fault that Naru was uncertain. He had hurt his little angel, and it was tearing him apart inside. He had to make it alright again.

………………………meow………………….

Naruto looked up at Itachi as he was carried down another hallway and further into the base. Itachi seemed to be worrying about something. Hopefully it wasn't about ditching him again. Naru didn't think he could deal with it again. He wasn't sure why but he didn't want to be left behind.

Itachi's eyes seemed to focus again on Naru a second later and the most shocking thing happened. Itachi smiled at him. A kind smile. An apologetic smile. A smile that made the butterflies in his stomach fly even faster. Naruto didn't even bother with his mask, his smile was real as he threw his small arms around Itachi's neck and cuddled into his neck.
