Amegakure.

As Pain, Itachi, and Konan, who's carrying Naruko, was walking towards the tower when they spotted a man who was sitting on the steps holding a tall and wide sword. The huge iron sword had an odd opening at the bottom half...for decapitating humans. The man was tall wearing the same cloak as Pain and Konan. He had a red line that was arcoss his face, that some would mistake as his mouth. The red line had lines all over his face, coming down to his chin. The man had a scar that was shape as a X, with white bandages on the sides his face, with his village head band on his forehead.

"Juzo. What are you doing here so early?" pain asked as he continues to walk.

"The mission was easy. I got the job done. I already hand it in the corpse" Juzo said as he got up. "By the way, why the fuck is there a kid in your arms Konan?" Juzo asked with annoyance in his voice. Juzo than got up, as he kept his eyes on Naruko, who simply just put her head in Konan chest. "I didn't sign up to be a fucking babysitter" Juzo said as he swung his sword over his back.

"Juzo. WATCH YOUR MOUTH. You will never talk like that to my family again" Pain said with anger in his tone, scaring everyone. Juzo, who simply took a step back and said"Sorry" before turning around and heading into the tower.

"That's my partner?" Itachi asked. 'Great. Now I have to deal with a jackass' Itachi thought to himself.

"Yea. Trust me. You would love him" Konan said sarcastically.

Naruko looked at everyone and notice that Pain, Itachi, and that guy Juzo all had headbands with a cut through them.

"Why do you all have a cross on your headbands?" Naruko asked.

"because we renounce our loyalty to the villages. We now only take care of ourselves" said Pain, looking at Naruko. "To put it more simply, we renounce our loyalty to the villages. We now don't have a village to go back to" Pain said as he looked at Naruko, who just nodded.

"Konan. Can you bring Naruko in and get her settled.." Pain said as he walked past Konan. while Naruko just smiled.

"Naruko. This will be your new home for now on. If you need anything, just ask. Please don't go on your own. This area is very dangerous, so anyone sees a cute girl like you" Pain said as he rubs Naruko head. "Who knows what will happen" Pain continued, as he forced a smile on his face.

Konan put down Naruko. "Come on Naru. Let's get you settled" Konan said as she grabbed Naruko's hand and started walking in. "see you later Onii-chan" Naruko said smiling.

[Japanese way of saying big brother] (A/N) {I can't leave out the Japanese. This is still based of Naruto}

Naruko, and Konan walked inside. Leaving Pain and Itachi alone…

"Itachi. I'm going to explain why the Akatsuki's was formed" Pain said.

-A/N. (think when Pain [Nagato] told Naruto about his past)-

"That's why you want strong People. To help you accomplish your goal" Itachi said looking into Pain eyes.

"Our goal" Pain corrected.

"Fine, I'll join" Itachi said.

"Good" Pain said.

"Now, you'll have to wear one of the cloaks we have" Pain said, as he turned around walking towards the door. He stopped, and turned around. "Oh yea. I almost forgot something" Pain said as he tossed Itachi a ring. "That's yours. Wear it on your Right Ring Finger" Pain said as Itachi slip it on.

"Welcome to the Akatsuki's" Pain said, as he continued on walking inside.

'Great. Now I have to play dress up' Itachi thought to himself. Looking at the ring, he saw his refection. 'At least this could be useful' as his eyes went from black to red, with 3 tomoe [commas around the pupil's]

In the woods, were four teams of ANBU's were flying through the tree's…

"Stop here" One of the ANBU's said. They all stop and looked at the one who spoke. "Why the fuck, are we looking for the Demon brat?" he said. "Let's just head back and tell Lord Hokage that we couldn't find anything" he said as he looked at everyone who nodded, except one.

"I won't abandon nobody, whether they're a demon or not" a white haired man said. "Why would you risk your lives for a demon that probably killed your friends or family?" the man said as he crossed his arms over his chest. All ANBU's member's had to wear that consist of black clothing, a gray flak jacket, metal arm guards and gloves, ninja sandals with spikes for travelling into mountainous regions, three ninja pouches on their lowerback and a signature spiral tattoo on the shoulders. ANBU's also has to wear a mask that resembles an animal. The guy who spoke, had a Lion mask.

"If she was the demon who killed them. She would had killed those who torture her" the white hair man said. He had the same uniform as everyone else's except for a Dog's mask. "Dog. What is your successful rate?" Lion asked. "98%, sir" the white haired man said, now known as Dog. "So you can do this mission by yourself. Unless anyone wants to go with you" Lion said as he looked at everyone. "I go" A purple hair woman said. She had a Cat mask. "Fine. Anyone else?" Lion asked. This time nobody raised their hands, or said anything. "Dog and Cat. Your orders are the same. Find Naruko Uzumaki. We how ever will look for Itachi Uchiha". "Yes sir" both Dog and Cat said.

"Good. Let's go chumps" he said to everyone else who simply nodded. Everyone left, leaving Dog and Cat alone.

"Why did you offer to help?" Dog asked, after everyone left.

"Because I sign up to protect my home, and everyone in it". Cat said, as she got ready to move. "Come on. We have a 6 year old to find" cat said, as she dashed off.

"Huh. Looks like she really cares" he said. 'cares too much'. Dog thought to himself before chasing after his Partner.
