They arrive at the park with team 7 still staring at Melody's ears. Everyone stop walking and Melody quickly move behind Kakashi Will they ever stop looking at my ears Melody asks Kakashi in his head "Don't worry I think they will when they get use to them" he replies to her. They look at Kakashi strangely "Erm sensei she did't say anything" Sakura states. Kakashi looks over to Melody and she shakes her head no "I just had a feeling on what she wanted to ask" "Is she a mute then sensei?" Naruto asks. Kakashi nods his head and stops in the middle of a small opening near a little lake. The young ninja wait patiently to see what type of training they are to do today. He pulls out 3 bells of his pocket cause the young ninja's to sigh with the exception of Melody who looks confused "Sensei we have already done this" Naruto whines. Kakashi smiles under his mask "I know but now you have a new team member and I want to see if you remember" Kakashi turns round and kneels down to Melody level "You go and stand next to the other, I promise they will not hurt Melody" Melody look other to the team and nod her head 'yes'
The team formed a circle so they can talk about a plan "Right Naruto!" Sakura says looking at Naruto "You do what you did last time and charge for him. Sasuke and me will hide in the trees and Melody erm you get behind sensei and help Naruto distract sensei" Sakura places her hand in the centre and everyone follows suit expect Melody "Melody just lift you hand up and place on the top" Naruto tells her softly. Melody smiles slightly and places her hand on top of Naruto's. Sasuke touching my hand Sakura squeals in her head as a small blush creeps across her face. "Are you ready?" Kakashi shouts. Everyone pulls away from the circle and looks at Kakashi ready for anything.
Melody's ears perk up sensing something is not right. No one notice her ears twitching as if she's trying to find something out. "GO!" Kakashi shouts. Naruto runs Kakashi but Melody runs off and stops in front of Naruto and growls at something in the trees. "Melody what are you doing?" Sakura and Sasuke jump out from their hiding place to see Melody ready to attack who or whatever is hiding. Kakashi turn around and throws a kunai at one of the tree's Melody is looking at but it didn't hit anything. Instead three people in black and red cloud cloaks jump out from the tree. Everyone's eyes widen as these men land softly on the ground "Itachi" Sasuke says with venom in his voice. The one known as Itachi smirks at Sasuke but does not say a word. The other two are a shark looking guy and the other has blonde hair and kind of looks like a girl. Melody eyes change to a dark grey colour up on recognizing the blonde hair male Deidara she voice sounds sad in his mind. He moves his lips to say sorry but does not speak a word. "What are the Akatsuki doing here?" Kakashi shouts moving in front of his team ready to protect them. "Just what is ours" Itachi coldly replies.
A figure jumps in front of Kakashi with a clipboard in their hand. "So he was right then" a female voice spokes "Now I have the rest of the day off" The female ninja turns around just before she takes a step "Edge! Don't walk off" Kakashi shouts but he couldn't help but laugh a little. The shake man looks at this masked woman called Edge Where have I heard that name before he thinks to himself. "I know Kakashi I was just playing after all I'm not going to let them hurt my little Naruto and Melody" She take off her mask and her horns suddenly appear on top of her head. "I will kill you Itachi" Sasuke couldn't help it anymore and charges for Itachi but Melody had other ideas. She quickly moves in front of Sasuke and using her tail, wraps it around his waist causing Sasuke to stop in his tracks. "Don't do anything stupid Sasuke you're not strong enough yet" Kakashi moves over to Sasuke and places a hand on his shoulder. "Listen to your sensei brother" Itachi smirks.
"Well this is lovely and everything but I need you to leave now or I could hurt you and make you run away" Edge broadly says while getting everyone to move out the way "We not leaving until this brat comes with us" the shark man shouts pointing to Melody. Deidara steps back a little and signals Melody to follow him somewhere. She nods her head and wait for the prefect moment to sneak off. "Sensei shouldn't you go and help her?" Sakura asks worried for Edges safety. Kakashi laughs and looks at his team "No she can handle this easily" "What? Really?" Naruto asks confuses "Idiot! Didn't you listen to the class when we leant about the Devil Clan" Naruto just shakes his had no remembering anything Will she really be ok? Melody questions in Kakashi head He turns to look at her "Of course Melody she is much stronger and gift then you would think" he whispers turning to look about at the fight that is about to start.
"Well I don't really feel like fighting so..." "What a shame I bet you would have been a good toy to play with" Kisame laughs but he soon stops when Itachi glares at him. Deidara notice everyone is looking at Itachi quickly runs off to meet with Melody. Melody notice Deidara has gone and runs off also to catch up with him. "I didn't finish" Edge shouts pissed off "So I just show everyone a special Devil Clan move and make you just have to run away" she smirks. She places her hands together and does only two hand signs "Hell's surface"
Meanwhile with Melody and Deidara...
Melody jumps up into a tree and lands in front of Deidara. Deidara smiles and brings Melody in to a hug "I'm sorry Melody" he whisper to her "I didn't want to come" Melody hugs him back with a smile on her face It's ok Deidara I believe you "What the hell is this?" they hear Kisame shout, "I wonder what's happening?" Deidara mumbles to himself "Anyway I try and find a way to stop the other Akatsukis from catching you in secret of course" Thank you Deidara you will always be my best friend in my heart Deidara signs and pets her on top of her head causing Melody to close her eyes "Are they treating you right?" he asks randomly Yes they all been nice so far especially Edge she kind of like me "Really? I guess you mean them horns on top of her head" Melody just smiles We should get back before they know we are missing "Yes you are right" They hug each one last time and rush back to see what is happening.
Back with the others...
Melody and Deidara arrive back to see most of the ground made of lava "Oh come on I'm standing on it" Edge smirks. Deidara jumps in the same tree as Itachi and Kisame. While team 7 and Kakashi are on a little island of normal grass. Edge is standing on the lava making funny insults towards the Akatsuki members "You know I'm not using any chakra" Edge sticks her tongue out. "How is she no using any chakra sensei?" Sakura asks "We didn't learn this in class" Kakashi laughs once more and turn to face his team "That because this move can only be used by the stronger member of the Devil Clan. It requires no chakra but uses the people chakra around them making them very weak as it drains around 80 of your chakra" Everyone eyes widen as such a move could even exist "Then why are we not weak?" Naruto asks this time "Cause Naruto she no using ours, she is using the Akatsuki chakra"
Feeling there chakra is slowly disappearing the Akatsuki members nod to each other "We will leave this time but we will be back" Itachi glares at Edge and disappears out of sight along with the Kisame and Deidara. Edge cancels the move and everyone rushes over to her "That was so cool" Naruto shout punching the air "Thank you Naruto" she smiles giving him a quick hug. She looks over to Melody and see she sad look One of them must have named her and become friends with her Edge thinks sadly. She walks over to Melody and gives her a hug "Sorry" she whispers in her ear before disappearing from sight. Melody looks slightly confused but shakes off I ask her late by what she means
"Anyway back to training team" Kakashi smiles "But Sensei!" everyone whines "No buts! So come on try get these bells when I say go" Melody watch the team whine to Kakashi and smiles softly to herself May be this is the start of a better life She runs over to the team and joins in on the fun whining session between sensei and team.
