Chapter 10 The Rainfall.

Pein laid back on his bed. Everyone.. Everyone had defected from the original Akatsuki. His dream. His sensei's dream. shattered. That bastard Kumoru.. Ruining everything that was important to him. He then thought of what Konan said.

"Everyone but Itachi has defected"

There were only 2 of them now, the Akatsukithat was once so powerful, so unstoppable was now nothing.

There was a knock on the door that brought him out of his thoughts.

"Come in" he says, sitting upright on his bed.

The door opens and Itachi walks in.

"sir.. I think its time that I left Ame. Theres very little point in staying. I think i might head back to the leaf village." he says as hhe starts to remove his cloak.

"Why go back? they would put you to death the second you set foot in the village!!" pein argues.

"That may be true, but there is nothing left for me in this world. My brother is dead, my friends shunned me andmy family well, they're dead too. So why not?"

"If that is what you wish to do, then i will not stop you. but... perhaps i will come with you. Konan has already left, so there is nothing left here for me.

"so this is it then?"

"yes, i suppose it is" pein says as he takes one last look around the room.

The rain seemed to lighten when the 2 Ninja stepped out of the building and soon, it was only soft raindrops that fell from the sky as they left the village.
