Oh, if anyone wants me to put up a profile for a character that has already made an appearance, then please tell me so! It can be Gwyn's family or her friends at school. Just leave it in a review. If I don't answer all of them then I am sorry. I'll try my best.

Midnight Summer
Chapter Thirty-Seven
The needle broke through the skin and, with the help of the female, Gwyn managed to get the woman stitched up. She talked to her, to the best of her ability, and kept her from freaking out. Then, after helping her upstairs and into her bed, Gwyn sat down and thought. And thought. And thought.
She couldn't help but to wonder who this lady is. And so she asks.
The woman turns her head and eyes her a moment before answering, "My name is Konan."
She cocks her head to the side before nodding. She than says, "I'm Gwyn."
The woman nods her head before asking, "Why did you help?"
Gwyn smiles before saying, "I felt it would be wrong to just walk away. I also had this feeling that, if I went for help, you would be dead by the time I got back."
"And I would've been." She answers.
As Konan's hair dried Gwyn learned something rather shocking.
Her hair isn't black. It's blue.
She went and fetched her soft food and water. After that she got her pain pills and a few extra pillows encase she wanted a bit more support.
Konan thanked her for each.
Finally, after a certain amount of time, she stopped when Konan grabbed her wrist.
She turns and looks at the blue-haired beauty before asking, "Is there something you need, Konan-san?"
"Yes. I know you are Gwyn, the girl who pissed off Deidara, so let me clear something up for you. I am Konan, Pein's partner."
Gwyn blinked before her eyes widened.
"A-Ah, I said it was an accident!" she protests and Konan smiles before saying, "I'm not worried about that. I want you to do something for me."
"What do you need, Konan-san?" she asks.
"I need you to go get Pein for me." She smiles as Gwyn's face pales.
Get…Pein?
Isn't some…like…a "KILL ME" sign.
"I don't know where he is." Gwyn says and Konan smiles again before saying, "He's at the dance with the rest of the Akatsuki. I…was running late. He's most likely wondering why I'm not there."
Gwyn sits on the edge of the bed before nodding to herself. That would make sense.
"But..." she pauses as Konan hands her a small, white flower.
As she picks it up she notices that it is made of paper.
"Give it to Pein after telling him that I need him. He'll follow you here." She tells her and then her eyes close.
Is that a dismissal?
Gwyn sighs before getting up.
She leaves the blue-haired female and heads downstairs.
She grabs a new pair of shoes since the other pair is stained with blood.
She heads back out into the rain.
"Fate wants me dead." She mutters as she trudges along.
She goes from one adventure to the next. It would seem that, even if she denies it, that this group is starting to build around her. She already has one pissed at her, one she kind of likes (well two), one that she's terrified of, and now Konan. She can say that she likes this woman.
She walks the worn paths of the town as she thinks. She needs to get to Pein but that first means that she has to get to the school. And into it.
She decides there that she will use a back entrance.
There is no way she is just going to waltz in. Not when she said she wasn't going to attend at all.
Plus…she'd rather find Pein before anyone realizes that she's there.
Then get out and get him to her house so that he can attend to his friend's needs.
But that means he has to know where she lives…
She lets out a groan as she thinks this over. She can see the school now but she's dreading the encounter that is about to happen. If she enters…
She shakes her head before laughing at herself. She worries too much.
With a more open mind she circles the school and eyes the back doors. She walks up to them and dries the doors. They open.
She grins before slipping into the building. She knows that her target is somewhere in this building. Now all she needs to do is find him.
All she has to do is hunt him down.
She creeps through the school and keeps going till she hears the music. She turns and follows it.
A light smile crosses her face as she can see the lights of the cafeteria. She edges through the doors and takes a quick glance around.
Pein could be anywhere.
But, after minutes of searching, she finally catches sight of him…and Itachi.
They're not far from her and are talking. She can also see that no one noticed her entrance.
So, with a calming breath, she edges forward.
I can do this. Konan asked me to get him…
She steels herself as she brings herself closer.
She reaches out a hand.
And grabs his sleeve.

Note from the Author: .Lol, "Fetch Pein!" God Complex from Konan...who knew? Anyway, this story is a bit odd. And sad. And funny...it's a bit of everything, isn't it? I don't have much to say here. Read and Review.
To Random Kidd (and anyone else who reads): About the other Naruto fic I was thinking of. Yes, it would be an OC. I'm not sure what the plan is in the story but I already have chapter one written. I'm working on chapter two. I want to have a few finished before I put it up. I know that I plan to introduce a lot of orginals in the story and add my own. I find it to be fun that way. Anyway, it will be a more serious piece from me. From my work count on chapter one...it's about 2000. Anyway...I hope you read it when it comes out. I hope everyone reads it...and i hope I get a lot of nice reviews! :)
