Summary: What would you do if you woke up in the middle of nowhere as a wolf? Sakura saves a blond boy from being killed by a mysterious creature, but she didn't think she would end up as the Akatsuki's pet! Oh and she meets up with a certain redheaded puppeteer during her stay. What could a girl do?

Disclaimer; Rated T just in case, and I don't own either show! It's kind of obvious with what I write, anyway.. ^-^; Hope you all enjoy, loves!

'Of course… this will be fun…' I stopped dead in my tracks as I stared at the big lard of fish that was in my way. I cocked my head as blue raised his eyebrow. Kisame then side stepped me, giving me a wary glance as he passed. Footsteps of the man grew quieter as he walked farther away. The sound disappeared as I began to walk once more.

'I sooooooo want to hear the outcome of Sasori's little 'problem'.' I thought to myself, chuckling slightly. Walking further down the hall I began to feel a little unnerved for some reason. Walking at a slower pace, I began to flash my eyes around the corridor.

'Never liked these things…' I noticed that the air in the halls seemed thick, choking me slightly. Shaking my head I walked further. I had no idea on what I was going to do, or where I was going, but it really didn't matter to me. The kitchen seemed like a first choice for me, knowing that I was extremely famished.

'Oh no… I.. I turned into some sort of h-… some sort of a… a Hou- A HOUSE PET! This is awful!'

Whining, I ran down the hall in the opposite direction, down the split of the 'T' shaped hallway, and I busted through the front door. The door flew open, as I ran around to the back of their hide out. There were layers upon layers of trees and greenery, as well as plants and herbs of different shapes and sizes.

'No wonder where Badgie gets his plants…' I thought, but as though time had stopped suddenly, I recalled my last remark.

'"No wonder where Badgie gets his plants…"' Snorting loudly I chuckled at my grammar.

'Seems like everything is going to be very interesting…' Laughing, I pounced into the woods, my body feeling light as I flew through the air. My feet were pounding in the tall grass and herbs, through roots and fields of shrubs. Kicking the dirt and dust behind me as the wind blew against my fur, feeling freedom for once as I began tracing back all of my actions.

'I saved a kids life, turns out he was an Akatsuki member… then I heal him and find out Sasori of the Red Sand is still alive. And later I discover the ex-puppet is a Drang-Zorn… later I move in with them as a pet, Deidara has a crush on me, Sasori believes I am a 'magical' wolf and I gave him a lap dance. I have not yet met any other member of Akatsuki other than those two and the fish along with the man-boy, yet I have a feeling I do not wish to meet the others…' Running through the brush I sighed,

'Although… I still need to keep my promise of helping mortals against wesen.' Kicking my feet faster I close my eyes, swerving around the fallen trees and roots in the path.

'Then it's settled. After I help the blond against the Coyotl's and find out exactly WHAT had happened, I am leaving as soon as I possibly can.' Feeling slightly relieved at finally figuring out a plan, I slowed my pace to a stop, opening my eyes to a large littered field. I looked around to see pieces of clothing, dirt, and trees I noticed everything smelled… coppery…

Looking up I saw a large hill- no… mountain with a rail cart going around and up the large behemoth of a dirt pile, into the top center, which held the home of a cave. The mountain was large, reaching up to the clouds as it had mixtures of black, taupe, and crimson earth. The hand powered rail cart seemed old, abandoned but still looked like it was functional. Dirty clothes hung from the sides of the mountain, stuck on sharp, rough fallen branches of trees that were scattered around everywhere amongst the cold soil. Barb wires and copper rods were littered around the entrance of the cave, threatening anyone who dared to enter. The cave, somber with spurs of barb and metal sticking from within. I looked behind me, flickering my head to the sides of the mountains. The trees were leafless, the branches withering as you could feel the life being sucked out of them. I directed my attention to the cave once more,

'Sakura…'

My heart stopped. Time froze as everything seemed to slow down,

'Sakura…'

I looked down to the base of the mountain, images flashing before my eyes,

'Don't take him!'

Oh God…

'STOP! Take me instead!'

No…. Stop…

'How touching…'

Stop it!

'Sakura…'

Don't hurt him!

'Help me…'

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I heard someone screaming… I looked around me to see who it was but then I realized… I was the one howling. Calming myself down I look around once more. This was it. This was the place they took us… It was the same as it was before… dirty, littered with metals, and lifeless.

I felt my legs moving on their own accord, without me noticing. Climbing up the mountain, the barbs and rusty branches cutting my sides and legs till they bled, I jumped across the small rocks and onto the next, most of them collapsed after I kicked off of them. My breath quickening, I pulled myself up one rock after the other after the other. Almost at the top, my paw slipped as it broke the small ledge. Slipping, I crawled my way up as much as I could, succeeding in my quest. Struggling to get on my feet, I stumbled towards the entrance. I made my way into the cave, my body being sliced on sharp metal poles, while being pricked by barb wire simultaneously. Pain searing through my body, I trudged my feet further into the cave. While leaving a trail of dirt and wine red blood, I made my way fourth, tripping over my paws during the process. I stopped. Staring directly at me was a seared piece of paper. Upon closer inspection, I realized it was a picture. A picture of… of…

"Grr…" 'Rue…' I remember when this was taken. It was taken at our families old log cabin, Rue's sixth birthday, only mere months before the incident… It was a picture of Rue and I, but in this case… I was in my human form, but I had wodged slightly so I could smile with my fangs showing… Where did those years go?Near the wall, was a small object. Walking towards it, I recognized what it was…

'Rue's favorite wolf…' It was a stuffed wolf, white with green eyes… I felt my eyes burning slightly as my head felt light. A bittersweet smile marked itself onto my muzzle,

'Rue specifically asked for a wolf doll with white fur and green eyes… he loved his older sister… she'd been with him through everything… but I'm not his sister... not anymore… I wasn't there for him through the ages of 6-14…'

My head began to buzz, as my body felt heavy. I wrapped my body around the doll, watching as my vision began to fade.

'He should be turning 15 soon…'

My body went limp as my heartbeat began slowing down.

'Happy Birthday Rue…'
