Author's Note: WOW! Zetsa is prego. O.O That was certainly unexpected. Anyway, I've now changed Oromaru to Oro because I have been informed that 'maru' goes at the end of a boy's name. Well, on we go with the story. Hope you enjoy…
IMPORTANT WARNING: There will be many character deaths in this story. So be warned and be sure to suggest which ones you want to remain alive longer when you review. The Akatsuki children's fates are somewhat in your hands. Bwha, ha, ha!!!

Chapter 9
"Oh my! What is that!?" Kisama suddenly screeched in untamed excitement pointing towards a small lump on the far off horizon of the road the Akatsuki were traveling, while leaning over Tachi's shoulder to get a better look at her source of curiosity.
Kisame had heard his daughter's question and paused on his conversation about sword construction with Same to answer. "That is Satoru Town, this region's shopping center so to say." Kisame explained briefly to his daughter before turning back to his son to continue their conversation, though Kisama just tilted her head to the side a bit and turned to Sasor.
"Hey Sasor." Kisama called, causing the red head to looked up at the blue haired woman who was all but hanging off of a much annoyed Tachi's shoulder. "Ever heard of a Satoru Town?" Sasori only shook her head at this, and Kisama gave a mighty sigh.
There was a sudden crash to the right of the traveling group, and a flash of silver could be seen being hurled towards a nearby stand of trees, before it fell limp at a tree's base.
"Hidana died again!" A voice called out, obviously Zets by the high pitched volume of it.
"Can we eat her daddy?" Etsu suddenly asked, though neither she nor her sister could be seen.
There was a silence, then a sudden scream. "Little fucken brats. Release me damnit…Hey don't…AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
"Zets, Etsu. Enough." Zetsu's voice echoed through the trees as Hidana suddenly burst out of the tree line with bit marks lining the sides of her arms.
"Those fucken brats tried to fucken EAT me!!!" She screamed, but the rest of the Akatsuki barely even spared her a glance only an occasional sweat drop, except Kaku who shook his head at her hopelessness. "But they…"
"Hidana. Enough. If you would stop provoking Kazula, then these problems wouldn't accrue." Zetsa suddenly spoke up in her usual emotionless manner, turning a sideward glance towards the silver haired woman.
Hidana grumbled at Zetsa's back as the green haired woman walked off, but surprisingly didn't say a thing. Hidan gave her daughter the eyebrow before letting a smirk crawl onto his face. He may have just met his daughter, but being a parent was rather fun from his point of view. Maybe it was because her daughter couldn't die. Hidan chuckled, earning a light glare from Hidana. Yeah. His daughter was a little ball if fire.
"Why?" Deida's whinny voice came from the rear of the group, causing some of the Akatsuki to look back with curious expressions. "Why wouldn't you LOVE ME!? I LOVE YOU…"
CRACK…
That damn well hurt. In less than a minute flat, Deida was face down in the dirt road, with a much annoyed Kazula standing over him with a slightly dented silver suitcase in her hands. Kaku immediately seemed to notice the briefcase.
"Hey, that's mine. Give it to me!" Kaku growled, giving Kazula a blood stopping death glare, though the rest of his face was covered in a mask similar to Kakuzu's.
"Really." Kakuzu said casually, mockingly, while bringing the case before as if inspecting it for something important. "I thought this belonged father." A smirk crawled onto Kazula's face and Kaku knew what was coming, all the other Akatsuki could sense the scowl on his face. "I don't see your name on it."
A clash. Within minutes Kazula was dodging punches and kicks a smile on her face the whole time. Kaku on the other hand was furious and though he kept a nearly impassive look on his face thanks to the mask he wore, his sister could feel his anger. Short temperedness did run in their family after all.
"Kazula!" Kaku bellowed in rage chasing his big sister through the dense trees as she gracefully dodged his attacks and the brush that got in her way.
The Akatsuki could only watch as they continued their track towards the little town. Slowly, they were becoming accustom to the madness. It seemed that ever since that morning, when they'd first gotten their children, there was not one moment of peace. If it wasn't Kisama acting like a two year old or Deida trying to confess his love to Kazula then being mercilessly pounded like a sack of meat, it was Hidana and Kazula screaming insults at one another. The Akatsuki had to admit though, it wasn't all too bad.
"Kabuto. Where are my scrolls?" Orochimaru hissed in a low irritated tone, though Kabuto just pushed his glasses back into their original position.
"I believe Sasuke is using them to train." Kabuto explained in monotone, though his voice was seemingly mocking and expectant as it always seemed to be and Orochimaru had to raise an eyebrow at this.
"I see. Such a good boy our Sasuke is." Orochimaru all but purred and Kabuto suppressed a shudder of something close to disgust.
Kabuto could only watch as Orochimaru licked his lips in anticipation at the thought of taking Sasuke's body as a vessel and forced himself not to look away. To do so, would more than likely lead to his demise.
"Not quite I'm afraid." A low slithering like voice came from the dark room's shadows, causing Kabuto and Orochimaru to feel a shudder run down their spines.
Orochimaru, for the first time he could ever recall, felt a cold wave wash over him at the sound of the sickly sweet voice. Low and dripping with malice, but mocking and persuasive. Almost seductive to the ears. The snake lord's shoulders tensed. Kabuto was feeling similar sensations, but being less powerful and assured that his lord, felt as though his very soul had been tossed into the middle of a raging blizzard. Possibly he would faint.
Soul shaking silence ensued the surrounding darkness for some time, until Orochimaru finally seemed to find his voice. "Who are you and how did you get in here?" His voice was low and steady, though somehow it seemed a tad bit guarded unlike his usual arrogant mockery.
"Me? Oh my." The voice said in a charming and innocent purr, causing Orochimaru to tense completely at the sudden change. "I did not mean to scare you." The voice soothed in a gentle tone. "I merely meant to get your attention." A truth or a lie, neither Orochimaru nor Kabuto could tell. "How rude of me." There was a sudden stir in the shadow just next to Kabuto and the medic felt his knees go weak. "I am Oro." The name was purred out into Kabuto's ear before he had even sensed the presence right behind him.
Orochimaru felt another chill run through him, as he locked eyes with another set of golden orbs, though he managed to maintain his composure. Kabuto on the other hand, had gone unbelievably rigid as two long pale fingers suddenly began to wonder up the length of his exposed neck, lightly scraping the tips of their nails on his sensitive skin. The eyes of Oro and Orochimaru never broke contact as the young woman continued to stroke at Kabuto's neck.
Orochimaru managed a weak smirk, though it was noticeably more timid then his usual ones. "Oro my dear." The young woman's shadowed figure didn't move in the slightest, merely ceased their roaming of the medic's skin, but her eyes seemed to flicker in recognition of the snake lord's voice.
"Yes father?" Sweet and seemingly childish the voice sounded, but Orochimaru felt his body numb at the words.
Father? Impossible.
"My dear child." His eyes focused solely on the eyes of the young woman hidden in the shadows. "I am afraid you are mistaken." The snake lord began with a crooked smirk plastered onto his pale face. "I have no children." The young woman's eyes did not flicker, nor did she blink, merely watched the man with snake like eyes intently and Orochimaru felt himself becoming unnerved by them.
Suddenly a disturbingly psychotic smirk spread over the young woman's pale lips as her head tilted and the dim candle light caught the glow of her sickly pale skin." Then let me explain this…" The slit pupils in her eyes thinned even more in malice as a full out grin creped slowly over her face. "…for the beginning."
