Hidan: Hello fucking low-lives who loves me! I'm here to rant a bit about that fucking new bitch member Rina. First off, she takes MY damn psyche AND fucking beheads me with it! She also made my head a fucking jack-o-lantern and proceeded to show everyone my damn humiliation! Shit! Also, she ate my LAST cookie! Do you fucking know how―
Me: AUGH! Will you shut up already? You just woke up the whole damn organization with your sissy complaints.
Hidan: BITCH! I FUCKIN HATE YOU! I DON'T FUCKING WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!
Me: (Turns to a sleepy emerald.) Isn't he going to die soon?
Emerald: Huh? (Blinks twice) Oh yeah. He'll be dead soon enough. It's only a few seasons away.
Hidan: NANI? What the hell are you two talking about? I'm fucking immortal! I cannot die!
Me: Whatever. I'm going back to sleep. (Goes back to her room)
Emerald: Me too. (Exits)
Hidan: FUCK! I FUCKING HATE THESE ATHEIST BITCHES! YOU! (Turns to the audience) WHAT THE FUCKING HELL ARE YOU ALL GAWKING ABOUT? JUST FUCKING READ ALREADY!
Emerald: (From her room) Author-chan doesn't own Naruto!
Me: (From my room) SHUT UP HIDAN! PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO GET SOME FUCKING SLEEP AROUND HERE YOU KNOW!

Chapter 7
Rose-sama…
That's dangerous…
What the hell is happening…?
Roza…
Rose…
I woke up gasping for breath. Clutching my head which has began to throb, I made my way to the bathroom. I splashed cold water on my sweaty face and looked at myself in the mirror. "What the hell was that?"
Beats me. I scowled at my reflection and looked away. "I wonder what is happening to Emerald." I muttered under my breath. I moved away from the mirror, not knowing something is watching me from the shadows.
Emerald watched the flames as the shinobis around her settled down for the night. "Akamaru!" Kiba yelled to the forest and after a few minutes, the big white dog came running out. Neji looked around the clearing, searching for any signs of danger. When he found none, he settled down on one of the big rocks encircling their camp.
"So will you tell us more about the missing person?" Shino asked Emerald in a way that made her feel like something is crawling down her arm. She squirmed and looked at Kiba for support. He nodded and smiled encouragingly while Neji observed from his perch.
"Rina and I have known each other since childhood. She's resourceful and tough. That's why I know she's not dead." Emerald bit off the urge to say "yet" and looked at Neji. "You are right when you said that she is dangerous. I've seen Rina fought men older and bigger than her and so far, no one has managed to beat her."
"Have you seen her use any of her abilities before? What's her weakness? We need to know more about her." Neji asked and for some odd reason, Emerald felt angry. "Why do you keep asking that? She's not an enemy, okay?"
"How can you be sure of that? She's in the bingo book. Her head is worth a hundred ryo and you expect us to believe that she is not dangerous?" Neji stood up, his anger flaring in time with Emerald's. "She's a unique user of Jutsus that has never been seen before! Her uncle is Orochimaru and she had killed a whole clan of expert ninjas in one night before she was even ten years old! Did you really expect us to believe that she is as innocent as you made her look?"
Emerald stood up. They both glared at each other while Kiba tried to defuse the situation. "Hey, hey. We're a team guys. Act civilized. We're mature, right?" He turned to look at Shino with a look of confusion but he just remained silent. Kiba turned back to the two and saw Emerald's retreating back. "Hey! Lady! Hold up!" He took off after her but not before giving Neji a glance then he disappeared as he followed Emerald.
"Shino, have you found any trace of the target's chakra?" Neji turned to Shino. "No. Her chakra disappeared as fast as those petals wither." Shino replied and continued being silent. Neji scowled at him for a moment before sighing in defeat and sitting on the rock once more.
Back at the Akatsuki's hideout, I was busy putting on a shirt when I felt somebody behind me. Instincts took over and I ducked, barely dodging a psyche as it sliced the air. I heard somebody curse as I jump out of the way. I glared at my attacker. "What the hell Hidan? Can't you leave a girl with her privacy for just a few minutes?"
Hidan took hold of his psyche proudly. "Hmph. I've seen men look sexier than you." He smirked and I scowled, putting my shirt on hurriedly. "What? Like you've slept with them before?" I said in a very sly manner that I know will immediately tick him off.
"URUSE!" He grabbed my hair and yelled on my face. I clenched my teeth, forcing myself to stay still. "I never slept with another guy! GOT IT?" I tried to twist out of his hold but he held fast. "Let GO!" I yelled, feeling really angry now. He still held fast.
"I said… LET. GO!" I yelled and I felt something stir inside me. The air suddenly felt electric. Like there were living currents inside. Hidan released me as I gasp and felt my eyes prick. "What the FUCK is WRONG with you?" I yelled and turned to look at him. He growled at me in anger. "You will perish in the purgatory bitch!" He said threateningly. I shrugged and glared at me. "Been there, done that. Bought the t-shirt." I smirked and walked out of the door. I was almost in the hallway to find Sasori when I heard him say something that froze my heart. "Your friend Emerald will die because of you."
"I don't get it! Rina-chan is really nice. If only he knew what she's really like! He won't be treating her like an enemy!" Emerald muttered angrily under her breath as she pushed through the forest. She thought she heard footsteps behind her but she dismissed it as her imagination. When she saw a figure of a man land softly in front of her, she realized it was not her imagination. Nope. Not at all.
"Hello Emerald." The guy in front of her greeted softly. She stared wide-eyed at him. Taking in his spiky blue hair, pale complexion and his odd mismatched eyes. She took a step back as the guy took a step closer to give her a perfect view of his perfectly ocean blue right eye and his left eye which is white. He wore a black mercenary-like outfit.
Emerald gulped. "Who are you and how do you know me?" She took another step backward, secretly putting her right arm on the kunai pouch on the back of her waist. The guy looked at her. Cocking his head to the right and looking confused for a moment. "You forgot? Huh. The genjustu must have been really permanent. Meaning Loki was right." He said, almost to himself.
"WHO are you?" Emerald asked again. Dropping into the stance that Kiba taught her to get better footing, she took out a kunai from the pouch. From behind her, she heard the sound of footsteps. The guy stared at her for a bit before replying. "My name is Azure." Azure… Doesn't ring a bell. I don't think I've seen him in any Naruto episodes either. She thought. "I'm trying to find my mistress Roza or Rose as the hunter-nin calls her." Emerald stared at him and blurted out. "You mean Rina?" She gasped and covered her mouth.
"Emerald!" She looked behind her and saw Kiba heading towards her with Akamaru. "What are you doing out here?" Kiba asked as he skidded to a stop beside her. She turned to look towards the guy named Azure but he was gone. "N-Nothing." She said quietly. Kiba looked at her worriedly. "You sure?" She nodded.
"I'm just a bit worried about Rina-chan." She said as she started walking again towards the edge of the forest where it ended into a cliff. She sat down on the edge and looked at the moon which is bigger and fuller than usual. Kiba sat down beside her with Akamaru between them. "Don't worry. We'll find her. I'm sorry about Neji's attitude earlier. He's always like that. Trust me. I know." He said but Emerald didn't answer. He turned to look at her and found her asleep on Akamaru's back. He sighed before smiling and turning to look at the moon. "You remind me of an old friend Emerald. That's why I will do what I can to help you."
"Take that back." I hissed at him. He just looked at me with a smirk on his face. Oh how I wanted to punch that smirk off his face and I did. I punched him so hard he didn't see it coming. He went flying towards the closet and broke it in half because of impact. I ran towards him with my fist raised but somebody grabbed me by my arm.
"That's enough." I heard a deep voice say behind me. I turned and found myself looking at a cloak with red clouds. I looked up and saw Itachi looking down at me with his Mengokyu. I scowled at him and tried to pull my arm away. "Hidan, Leader-sama wants you in his office now." Itachi said in his monotone voice. I turned and saw Hidan stand up from the wreckage which is my closet and wipe the blood off the side of his lips with the back of his hand.
Hidan glared in my direction before walking out. He spat on my shoe as he pass me. I just glared at his back. Once he was gone, Itachi released me. "What do you want?" I scowled at him, crossing my arms on my chest. He just looked bored. "Leader-sama wants me to train you. To test how good your abilities are." He said in a bored tone. "He wants you alive and not dead."
I glared at him before turning to lie down on my bed. "Wake me up when we're going to start training." I said to him. Perfectly matching his bored tone. I suddenly felt tense. I rolled out of bed, barely missing the kunai as I passed beside my head and embed itself on my pillow. "What the fuck?" I glared at Itachi. He just looked on and deactivated his Mengokyu before walking out. "Training starts now."
"Emerald!" Somebody shouted, making the said person wake up abruptly. Emerald blinked and looked around, everything is whizzing past. The trees are a blur and she felt the cold air sting her face. "Keep your head down!" Said Neji while carrying her. Once Emerald realize she is being carried by her least favorite person right now, she squirmed. "Let go Neji! I could walk by myself" She said before squirming some more. Neji let out a sigh of frustration but then suddenly noticed that Emerald is now still and quietly staring at something behind him.
I huffed in frustration. In two hours, I only managed to get Itachi to move from his damn position and that is only because I used a couple of plants to pull him away. Stupid test. He's like a freaking rock! This isn't training. This is… This is… AUGH!
I jumped and performed a series of hand Jutsus that my inner flashes in my mind while in mid-air. "Dance of Willows Jutsu!" I activated it and my chakra turned to Willow vines around me. Leaving a trail of vines behind me as I land near Itachi. The vines suddenly turn to life and attack him. Itachi just looked on as he did a couple of hand seals and blew his famous Uchiha Fire Ball Jutsu on my face.
I made a sound of panic and felt thorns materializing all over my body, protecting me from the heat of the fire. We wouldn't want you to be made into a fried marshmallow, now do we? My inner smirked at me and I felt the thorns retreat from the top of my head to my neck, down to my navel then my foot.
"Is that all the legendary "Rose" could give? You couldn't even move me from my spot." Itachi said in his emotionless voice for the nth time this hour. I finally can't take it anymore and glared. Putting both my hands on both ears, I yelled at the top of my lungs. "LA LA LA! I'M NOT LISTENING! LALALALALALALA!" With my eyes closed, I didn't se Itachi walk up to me until he was in front of me.
He pinched my forehead which HURT before walking away. I clutched my forehead. "OW! ITACHI GET BACK HERE!" I yelled, running towards the hallway where he disappeared.
"What's wrong?" Neji asked. Emerald just stared. A sharp bark from somewhere in front of them snapped her out of her trance. "It's Azure…" She muttered as she looked at the blue-haired guy following them from afar. "Who's that?" Neji asked. Kiba suddenly landed beside them. "You know him Emerald?" Kiba asked. She just stared at their pursuer and nodded slowly. "Maybe… I think so."
Somebody yelled in the background. "AAAAhhhh! I hate dragons!" The three of them looked back and saw Azure bitten by a small dragon on the arm. Shino landed on a tree away from the trio as they watched Azure do a Jutsu and attack the dragon on his arm with water. After splashing water balls at the dragon, it only made it angry and the small dragon started chewing his arm. "GAH! Let go you-!" Azure yelled.
"Tsk. Tsk. You can't even defeat a measly dragon Azure. How can you find dear Roza if you're like that?" A figure of a man landed at the branch near Azure. Neji quietly put Emerald down to her feet as they stared at the couple.
"You!" Emerald looked wide-eyed at the man who currently whistling to the small dragon. The man turned to Emerald and smiled as the small dragon unlatched itself from Azure's arm and turn into a shadow, blending quickly to the background. "Oh hello Emerald. I see you found a way into this dimension as well."
Kiba looked at the man then at Emerald as Neji glared in the man's direction. "Do you know him Emerald?" Kiba asked quietly. Emerald nodded as Neji asked the man. "Who are you? Name yourself!" Azure rubbed his arm and said, "My name is Azure. I'm just trying to find my mistress. She's the one you're trying to find."
Neji absorbed this and turned to the man who just smiled again. "The name is Loki. I'm Roza's friend and also…" He turned to Emerald smiling as she stared at him, her eyes widening in fear. "I'm also the one who tried to kill her as well." He nodded in her direction.
Shit.
Me: …
