Sapherya~Pov

When I woke up, I wasn't expecting to wake up outside or in a forest for that matter. I wondered how I had even got here in the first place and when I went to stand up I staggered a little bit feeling unbalanced and dizzy, falling over onto my side. I felt a little unusual to myself and then I noticed something was not quite right. I went to put my hand on the ground to help push myself off the ground when I noticed I didn't have hands anymore but rather small little paws. My fur was a dark brownish color with slight reddish ends. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, No, I didn't believe what I was seeing. I got up and spun around noticing I had a small kitten sized tail trailing behind me and at that moment I knew. I was drugged… Or at least that was the only thing that made sense to me. At this point in my mind the only logical thing to do was scratch myself since I didn't have opposable thumbs to pinch myself. I carefully took a nail of mine that popped from the padded paw and I raked it against my other arm and yowled in pain as I drew blood. Looking around I noticed nothing changed. "Fuck! Holy fucking cheese balls. This...It isn't a dream nor am I on drugs. What the hell is going on here? How the hell have I turned into a bloody cat?" I mumbled to myself trying to come up with some sort of rationalization for what could be happening to me at this moment but nothing would come to mind. I sat there Thinking for quite some time before coming to the conclusion that just sitting here wasn't going to do anything. I needed to find out where the heck I currently am.

Deciding to finally get up and move, I picked a direction to start walking in and headed that way. It felt like an hour went by when I finally hit a dirt road. I must've been left out in the back country I suppose. Why else would there be dirt roads instead of asphalt ?I could feel myself starting to grow fatigued with hunger. However, I knew I just couldn't stop and eat, partially because there was nowhere to just stop and eat at, that, and I'm a cat. I think after about two, maybe two and a half hours of walking, I made it to a small village that I happened to wander into. However no one seemed to notice me. I just wondered about the small village in search of some sort of food before I collapsed. Noticing a small food vendor selling what seemed like grilled squid. I felt my stomach growl and I walked up to it sitting at the base contemplating on how to acquire some. I was about to walk off, my head hung low and sadly feeling super sick from not eating all day and since I didn't eat much the day before my body was throwing a fit.

I noticed a small child who was walking with their parents and held a grilled squid. I ran over and rubbed against their legs. When the parent saw me they tried to shoo me away by trying to push me off of the child's leg. I sighed and turned to walk away when I accidentally got knocked upside the head with a piece of grilled squid. When I looked back I saw the child smile at me and wave as he continued to eat the rest of his food walking alongside his parents. I picked up the piece of food and sighed seeing a little dirt got on it.

I walked around with the food till I found a small park with a bench in it. Strolling under it laying down and began to nibble on it. A few minutes into my meal two people sat down. I suppose to rest up for a moment before continuing on their way. I sat still listening to what was being said. I mean no one is really going to pay attention to a little feline. So I mean there's no issue with actually staying.

"Itachi?" I swore I heard the first guy say Itachi. "Do you think the skill level of this next jinjuriki would be like? Perhaps more of a challenge then the last one?" I took that as my que to leave. If I somehow managed to be placed or thrown or even slingshot into the world of Naruto/Naruto Shippuden I was definitely not sticking around to get my hide skinned by the Akatsuki, fuck that shit. As much as they are my favorite characters in the whole series and I always said that i'd probably go up and fangirl on them, not that it actually may happen I'm scared shitless because they can probably kill me quicker than Naruto can say Ramen. I quickly and attempted to be silent as I tried to sneak away. However, I suppose I didn't do a stupendous job, since I yowled when someone picked me up by the scruff of the neck. May I add ow, it fucking hurts and i'm sorry to any cat I've ever picked up like this. Maybe it's because I'm originally human? Who the fuck knows.

"Hey asshole, put me down!" I yowled knowing they couldn't understand me, the only thing they heard was hissing and meowing. Thank the heavens about that.

"Itachi, what do you have there. A spy? You don't normally have your Sharingan activated at random." The blue man I'm assuming is Kisame stated rather suspiciously. Therefore I'm going to naturally assume that the man who picked me up is Itachi. When I looked up from being held and my eyes widened as I came face to face with none other than the actual Sharingan of Itachi Uchiha. Boy, may I add that as my tiny helpless little body trembled I knew right then in that moment, I'm sure I peed myself.

"This cat, something's… different, it doesn't have any sort of chakra running through it, yet here it is, alive and well." He pondered for a moment and made a few hand signs and poof happened but nothing happened. Not to me nor anything around us. "Strange, this is something Pein will want to see." I stiffened at the statement that the raven haired male just said. I noticed that Kisame was leaning closer to me and I glared then attempted to scratch the large blue man who Towered over me as he tried to rub my head. Sorry pal, I'm not letting our large deadly hands anywhere near my easily squashed head.

"Itachi is it possible for cats to be this intelligent?" He asked Itachi, the said Uchiha shrugged.

"Hn, we'll take it along, Pein needs to see this." As he said that he placed me in his arms and they started to walk. Me, being the curious little shit I was, wanted to see where we were going so I climbed to his shoulder and looked around. I guess the perks of being a cat that people didn't know was human, was that you could get away with shit such as riding on peoples shoulders. However, if they were to find out I was a human in a cat body I think that would be one hell of a conversation to explain. I'm not sure how I'd even explain it anyhow.

"Heh, Itachi it seems to like you."

"Hn" I rolled my eyes at the said Uchiha's famous response. When a rather odd thought crossed my mind. If these are the real Akatsuki members I have just gotten myself into some real deep shit. I groan and plopped my head down on his shoulder/my paws and mewls pitifully. I guess my life was as good as it could be. I mean at least I get to die in an awesome way yeah? Death by Akatsuki? I wonder if it will be fatality style, like in MKX or if it will be kind of lame. If I die, I hope it's at least awesome.

I suppose after walking all day I had become sleepy. I felt my eyelid start to feel heavy. I really didn't want to sleep, especially since I didn't know who these people were and I wasn't sure where the hell they were taking me. However, my eyes won this little battle and they closed as I soon drifted off into a lulled deep sleep. Darkness and an empty, dreamless sleep followed.

When I woke up from my nice little "cat" nap I was in some sort of weird little underground hideout. There were stone walls and caves like ceilings. Everything smelled like earth, which to be honest to god, was amazing! Realizing I was on someone's lap, I jumped and claws protruded out of my tiny paws. When I looked up I saw Itachi who was looking down at my reaction. I yawned tiredly and stretched and curled up, I couldn't resist purring as his rather oddly soft hand stoked along my back and against my fur. It was rather pleasurable, I leaned in his hand and fell asleep purring. Then again I did similar shit while I was human who doesn't enjoy a good head scratch and nap time!

About 10 minutes later I woke up again and meowed at Itachi just as my stomach growled. "Hungry?" The male stated emotionless. I meowed softly and climbed up to his shoulder. Itachi stood up and walked to I'm assuming the kitchen. Once we made it to the room, it was indeed a kitchen. It was so weird seeing their stuff it was very similar back to what I have in my apartment. Itachi set me on a counter where I sat down watching him curiously as he opened the fridge pulling out some leftover cod or something. I just knew it was a white fish. He pulled a small amount off it and placed it on the counter for me while he heated the rest of it for himself. Sitting at a bar stool by the counter his careful calculating eyes focused on me. It honestly made me very nervous but I gulped my pride away and began to eat the fish. Once it took the first bite I realized I was a lot hungrier than I originally thought. I noticed I finished eating that quicker than I should've damn, if it wasn't for the fact (which at the moment I'm glad as hell I'm a cat) I would have been blushing about 50 shades of too damn red. I turned so my back was to him as I laid down closing my eyes. This is going to be a long evening I thought to myself before drifting off into a distant sleep.

Itachi~Pov

As I was watching the new kitten eat, I noticed that she was a bit clumsy. I found out she was a female earlier. However the cat didn't seem to like that very much, almost as if she was embarrassed. I'd have to admit it was kind of cute. However, despite everything going on, I still should give her a name so that I'm not just calling her "cat." I thought to myself for a minute thinking about her personality and how she acts. Yet there wasn't much known about her, she seems so much like a mystery. I think that's what I'll name her, Nazo. While the kitten finished then fell asleep on the counter in front of me I fell into a deep thought after finishing my own food. She really was a strange mystery. I thought maybe It was a sy in a transformation jutsu however when I released it nothing happened. Maybe It's nothing but, the one thing that's bothering me is that I sense absolutely no chakra in her. She let me pick her up and I took her to my room. "Come on Nazo." She woke up and yawned before climbing to my shoulder like always and mewled. She's not a normal cat and I can tell she's special, I just am not quite sure how.

When I got to my room I locked the door and walked to the bathroom. Heaving a sigh of relief I began to take off my cloak after putting Nazo on the bed and took off my shirt and turned to grab Nazo when I saw she's hiding her face looking away. Why would a cat be embarrassed, I already knew it was a female but to act like this was unusual? My mind wondered. I chuckle at this though and I pick her up as I start the shower and I strip the rest of my clothes stepping in bringing Nazo with me. She seems really warm. It seems like if she could blush she would and she doesn't look down. What an interesting kitten. On top of that she's enjoying the water eyes closed and just lets it run on her. How strange.

I wash my hair and then wash little Nazo so she's clean, purring as I wash her fur. Weird, cats hate water yet she seems to like it. I finished cleaning us both and I wrapped a towel around myself before I dry her with a fluffy towel. She yawns again and curls up in the towel. This sight makes me smile slightly. I put on my boxers and grab the sleeping kitten meowing as she wakes up. As I lay in bed I pet her and she curls up next to me as we both fall asleep.
