"Do you miss your family?" Keida whispered, Itachi twirled her and pressed her against his body, Keida blushed at the contact and she looked into Itachi's crimson eyes. A part of her scared what he might do while the other was memorized by them.

"Do you miss yours?" Itachi said as his lips were so close to her, Keida pulled back but Itachi wouldn't allow that

"Answer my question and I'll answer yours." Keida stated standing her ground

"Yes. My mom and Sasuke. I could live without my father." Itachi responded, Keida was shocked that he answered. She smiled

"I do miss my family. The one before the accident." Keida said, Itachi nodded remembering last night's event.

"My brother and I were playing around outside. I told him all the time that he was invincible and that nothing could hurt him. He was like a super hero to me. My brother. My Kazu." Keida said tearing up, she grabbed her neck remembering the scar.

"I asked him if he could drive us to the waterfall." Keida said

"Waterfall?" Kisame asked

"Once a year my family and I would go camping and there was this beautiful waterfall that Kazu and I love to escape to whenever we could. It was our secret hangout." Keida said smiling

"I asked him to drive us there. He took our parents car keys, we got in the car and he backed up and then...and then.." Keida struggled but stood strong

"Another car ram into us. On my brother's side." Keida said silently, She kept her tears hidden. "If I didn't ask him to do it, then he wouldn't have tried and then the fuckin' car wouldn't have rammed into him." Keida cried out holding herself. "It was like when he died a part of me died along with him." Keida said covering her face letting the tear fall. She had her brother had a strong bond that people would call it magic or crazy strange, they would know each other's thoughts, sometimes see what the other one sees. The fact was that they were two in the same. Apart of each other.

"It's was all my fault. All my fault." Keida kept saying as if it was a chant

"Itachi are you okay?" Keida asked lifting her hand to his forehead, Itachi leaned into her hand and she smiled

"Fine. Just a bit tired. I'll leave you with Kakuzu." Itachi said bowing slightly as Kakuzu appeared nodded his head in recognition, Keida smiled and nodded back. She began to Waltz with him quietly

"Why are you here Keida." Kakuzu said harshly, Keida was taken back by his tone, Kisame glared at how angry Kakuzu's eyes were toward Keida

"What do you mean? I'm a member of the Akatsuki." Keida said back

"You're a child." he retorted

"I'll be 21 in a couple of weeks. I am not a child." Keida said emphasizing her point

"But you act like one. You played all of us to get what you want. You knew what you were doing and you did it. You're devious is slightly evil but you aren't. You will be forced to kill someone. Children, the elderly, kids, teenagers, hell maybe even a newborn if the case may be." Kakuzu said, Keida tried to leave but she wouldn't let go but held her closer to him

"You're a child to believe that everyone being together as 'friends' will last this long. Your going to start trouble for everyone. I suggest you grow up and isolate yourself like we had done in the beginning. Because even time fades away." Kakuzu said, Keida broke free of his grasp and walked away, she headed toward the bathroom, Kakuzu stood there staring at the floor.

{Why is an angel with demons! It's obscured!} He thought before he felt himself walking towards Sasori and the rest of the Akatsuki minus Tobi. They all looked pissed.

"The fuck is you goddamn problem you freakin' heathen!" Hidan cursed in a whisper

"I spoke the truth. Something everyone is afraid to do to her." Kakuzu said

"We can speak to her just fine without making her feel like shit." Kisame said clutching his hands

"She is going to be a problem and you all know it!" Kakuzu nearly shouted but kept his voice under control

"And why would that be?" Sasori asked

"Cause we all want her." Kakuzu said and everyone remained silent


"Oh god. Konan would kill me if I ruined the hard work she put in to my face." Keida said daping away her tears, she took a deep breathe and walked out only to walk into someone

"Oh I'm so sorry!" Keida said bowing

"No! Tobi is sorry Keida-chan!" Tobi yelled

"Oh Tobi! It's just you, thank god." Keida said holding her chest breathing

"Keida-chan what's wrong?" Tobi asked

"Just got upset for no reason. Hormones or something." Keida lied

"Is it Keida's time of the month?" Tobi whispered to her in a hush hush tone as if no one could ever know.

"Uh no." Keida said sweat dropping.

"Oh. Then why is Keida-chan so upset about?" Tobi asked again. Keida sighed and started to explain to Tobi what Kakuzu had told her.


"Where is Keida?" Konan asked out loud noticing that she wasn't anywhere to be seen

"She probably went to the rest room." Pain said, "Come. Dance with me, Angel." He added with a hint of a smile, Konan smiled and gave the waiter her drink as she walked over to the dance floor with Pain holding her hand for all to see. Konan smiles softly as he laid his left hand on her right hip and held her left hand in his, she laid her right hand on his left shoulder, they Waltz and Konan felt as if it was only the two of them alone, in sync and finally free of all their worries. Pain stared into Konan's eyes remembering when they were young and bringing the Akatsuki to life. Konan smiled softly at him and noticed his eyes were staring right into hers, he started to lean in and Konan did the same, his lips slowly pressed against her and she added pressure, it was small and short but it meant the world to Konan. They heard a crash and everyone saw Hidan and Kakuzu on the ground.

"Just when everything was going perfectly." Pain muttered, he coughed and told everyone that they should moved to the other room, Konan escorted everyone towards outside where they had their own garden. Zetsu's.


"Fuckin' bitch!" Hidan yelled throwing Kakuzu to the ground

"Get the fuck off me!" Kakuzu said, Kisame grabbed Hidan off him and then they felt a deadly aura

"One night." Pain said, "Couldn't give this one night without a fight. You two. No mission or pay for a month." Pain said as he left

"See what you've done now we won't get paid!" Kakuzu yelled about to punch Hidan

"Why is everyone fighting?" A voice stopped everything, everyone saw Tobi holding Keida as if protecting her from a fight, she had a surprise look on her face and was staring around at the empty room.

"Where did everyone go?" She asked again

"Tobi thinks we should leave them be Keida-chan." Tobi said grabbing her hand and pulling her towards the door, she looked back confused but allowed herself to be pulled away by Tobi.

{Fuck.} Everyone thought


"How'd you like the party Keida?" Konan asked combing out her hair

"It was fun but confusing. Will there be more?" Keida asked

"Not for awhile." Konan said smiling, Keida smiled and blushed remembering everyone's kindness but then shivered at Kakuzu's words

"Something wrong?" Konan asked

"Just cold and tired. I'm going to bed." Keida said walking out

"Goodnight." Konan called out. She smiled and stared where Keida sat and wondered what happen to her while she wasn't with her.
