Hello, I hope you all have a great day today. I don't know why but I'm extremely happy, probably because I hadn't slept good in a while and slowly turn insane.
Enjoy.
It was a beautiful day outside so some of the Akatsuki members decided to take it easy for the day. After class they all just relaxed a bit.
Four of the Akatsuki members were outside on the school ground and enjoyed the sun at a quiet little corner. This corner has beautiful flowers blooming, a wooden bench to sit on and a table ideally made for two people to play chess.
Konan and Nagato were sitting next to one another on the bench while sharing headphones that are connected to Nagato's scroll and played a relaxing operetta into there ears. Konan had her head on Nagato's shoulder and could almost fall asleep to the wonderful atmosphere.
Meanwhile at the chess table two individuals weren't actually playing chess at all, rather they were both reading there books. Kakuzu was reading again some old story and legends from a old hard covered book while Sasori was reading his massive book again, and again had dark rings under his eyes.
Sasori could feel the how he slowly drifted away as his eyes closed. In that moment however a short and loud airhorn sound appeared which jolted the boy back to the waking world. Kakuzu was holding a airhorn while still reading his book. The immortal glanced over to the puppet master before shrugging.
"You told me to keep you awake. It doesn't matter if you like it or not you will still pay for my services." The greedy Akatsuki members reminded Sasori who cursed the decision to ask Kakuzu for help. Thanks to the constant learning of this enhance prosthetics science, the lake of sleep and the homework his brain made dumb decisions lately. He even asked stupid questions out of the blue like how Hidan always kept his hair so straight or what cup size Konan had.
Either way this book was slowly killing him. Sasori closed the book and let out a discouraging sigh out as he leaned back into the chair. This caught Kakuzu's attention who put his own book away. "What's wrong, having a break?"
"No, this hole thing is leading me in a dead end. I know there are more things to learn about these things but at the same time I know that it won't bring me closer to my goal." The puppet master said as he looked up the the sky.
The sad thing is that this book has given him a great insight on prosthetics combined with human biology perfectly, he could even make these prosthetics into greater weapons. However they were just that, prosthetics. Replacement of organs and limbs with improved mechanical parts.
But that was just it, just replacements not a completely new body. The worst thing is that he couldn't even do it on himself. If he wanted a permanent prosthetic arm he would have to be unconscious as the people would work on him, but he is the only one he knows that could give the best prosthetics. In the end he could only use the knowledge to improve other people and not himself.
"Can't you just, I don't know, upload yourself into a Maschine or a doll like Minerva?" Kakuzu asked interested. He never understood how Sasori acquired his puppet body in the first place.
Sasori sighed again as he watched some lazy floating clouds passing by. "Sadly no, I had some trustworthy people watching over me during this process. These new puppet would work two but I'd only trust you guys with watching the process, sadly non of you have enough knowledge on this topic that if something went wrong you could step in."
Kakuzu chuckled. "I'll just pretend I only heard the part saying that you only trust us."
Nagato caught everyone's attention as he cleared his throat. Everyone looked up and saw professor Ozpin and Glynda walking towards them, actually they were more moving towards Sasori.
"How are you feeling today Sasori?" Ozpin said with a warm smile.
"Better if I knew what Oobleck puts into his coffee." Sasori simply answered.
With a simple glance at Ozpin's smiled the puppet master continued to talk. "Let's not waist everyone's time and simply lay our hands out. You came to check on me to know how far I got with the book, the answer is that i got far and could possibly help you with whatever you considered requesting from me all along. So just tell me now, I'd hat to keep you waiting only to tell you that's not possible or I refuse to do it. Let's get this over with."
Glynda was just about to say something before Ozpin stopped her. His smile was now gone as he looked Sasori into the eyes. "As you wish. Come with us."
"Were coming with you." Konan simply said as she and Nagato got of the bench. Kakuzu remained quiet but stood up as well, making it clear that he would follow to.
Glynda shot the group a glare. "I doubt that this concerns you."
Kakuzu only crossed his arms. "As the team leader I am concerned with everything that happens to my teammates. As for the other two, since Konan wants to come with us Nagato will also want to follow."
Nagato was about to process but known that Kakuzu was right. He told himself that this wasn't about Konan but for the simple desire to look after his Akatsuki members.
Ozpin sighed. "Alright, but know that I wouldn't ever show you this if it wasn't necessary. You simply get to see it because of my regret for what happened to her. I take it that I don't need to emphasize that you discretion is requested."
The Akatsuki members nodded. Ozpin made his way to the school building as the four Akatsuki members and Glynda. The blonde teacher wished that Sasori was actually able to do anything to help poor Amber.
The other two half's of team KSDH and team NIKK were currently walking around in town with team RWBY. Weiss was exited About the oncoming vitalfestival and happily looked around.
"Ah, the vitalfestival. The time were all Kingdoms came together and share there culture." The heiress happily hummed.
Kisame smiled while Sharkskin fiddled around on his back. "Sharkskin is getting excited too."
Yang laughed. "Why is that? Dose your sword have any sort of bloodlust?"
Kisame laughed loud as well. "No, it's just excited to eat some of that delicious Aura around the world. It's less of a tournament and more like a exotic all you can eat buffet to us. If anyone is bloodthirsty it's Hidan."
The shark pointed to Hidan who only smiled. "Certainly, I am so pumped to show the world the power that is wielded by a follower of jashin! SO PUMPED!" The immortal screamed.
Ruby tried to calm down the immortal who screamed at the top of his lungs with slightly blood shot eyes he got from pure excitement. "Hidan please people are starting to stare."
Yang only shook her head at the immortal. Lately she noticed that her sister was hanging around around with him. Since nothing seemed to happen between them she just let it happen, she did however followed Kakuzu's advice and punched the immortal from time to time. It was really stress relieving and felt just so good. "So Deidara, are you excited as well?"
Deidara put his hand to his chin and thought about it for a while. "I guess I could find some sort of inspiration watching the fights for my explosions. The only reason I'm hear is because I don't have anything better to do and wanted to stretch my legs." He said as he looked up to the sky and lost himself to his thoughts about new explosions.
Itachi sighed. "How about we do what Weiss planned in the first place."
Hidan nodded his head. "I agree, why exactly are we at the fucking harbor princess?"
Ruby held her nose because of the stench. "It smells like fish here. No offense Kisame."
"Partly accepted." The shark answered.
Weiss decided to answer there questions. "Students of the other kingdoms will be coming soon to our wonderful city and as students we represent our kingdom and should greet them with absolute respect."
"So were spying on them?" Itachi simply summed it up.
Blake only nodded. "Yup."
"You two can't prove that." The heiress defended herself.
"Guys." Ruby said as she pointed down the street. There appeared to be a crime-scene at on of the shops which caught the attention of everyone. So naturally they decided to walk up to the yellow tape.
"What happened here?" Ruby asked on if the officers.
"Robbery. Second dust shop this week. This place is turning into a jungle." The officer answered as he walked back to his partner to share some word. They theorized that this might have been the work of the white fang, but simply dropped the topic as one of them mentioned that they'd probably not paid enough for this.
"Hmpf, the white fang. What a awful bunch of scum." Weiss said with disgust in her voice.
Blake turned to weiss with a frown. "What's your Problem?"
"My problem? I just don't care for the criminally insane." The heiress answered.
"The with fang is hardly insane, they are simply a group of misguided Fanus." Blake answered angry.
As the two continued there fight Kisame slightly leaned over to the other Akatsuki members. "Correct me if I'm wrong but do you guys think that people in our world debated our organization in this matter?"
Itachi shook his head. "Probably not. Our organization was a powerful crime organization with few members. White fang is a racial movement that that turned criminal."
Hidan herd Ruby asking the question what reason they would have robbing a dust shop, so he decided to answer that. "Maybe they are trying to weaken the economy of dust manufacturers in order to weaken the military defense. If dust gets stolen then it will become more expensive and that causes the hunters and the military to either use it less or not bye as much."
Everyone looked at Hidan with wide eyes. "Care to repeat that?" Itachi said very confused.
The immortal laughed and gave Ruby a high five. "This treasure here help me with my study's in a fun way. I'm one of the smart people now."
Meanwhile in a cramped elevator with six people Kakuzu started to shutter violently. Nagato looked concerned at his friend. "Are you alright?"
"Y-yeah never mind, I just felt like something very wrong happened. Something that can't happen." The immortal answered.
Glynda glanced over to them for a moment. "You people are sometimes els."
Back with the others the conversation remained heated. "That still doesn't change the fact that the white fang is scum. Those Fanus only know how to lie, cheat and steal." Weiss said.
Kisame raised a eyebrow. "Sh-should I like leave? Am I not welcome any longer?" Sadly it seemed that no one even heard Kisame.
Suddenly there was screaming that seemed to get close and closer. "Stop that Fanus!" One of the policeman called as they ran after a blonde boy with a monkey tail. As he ran past them he seemed to quickly wink at Blake before cutting the corners while still being chased by the police.
"Well Weiss, you want to see competition and now it's gone." Yang said with a smile.
Without a moment of hesitation the heiress ran after the monkey boy. Soon the rest of team RWBY followed her around the corner and continued the chase, leaving the Akatsuki members behind.
"Are we going to follow them?" Itachi asked as they all remained put.
Kisame crossed his arms. "No. The more I think about that comment from Weiss the more I'm offended."
The Immortal rolled his eyes. "So what, grow some skin and let Deidara handle that. I'm sure he can convince her to give you a apology since he already wooed her, right Deidara?... wait, were is that guy?"
The Akatsuki members looked around only to notice that Deidara was missing. In that moment Kisame received a voice message from Deidara on his scroll and played it. The artist voice was clearly heard from the device.
"Hey guys, this might sound funny but I appear to have lost you. While I was looking up in the air and lost to myself to my thoughts I just continued walking. Now I'm lost and it would be really nice if anyone could search for me." The voicemail ended.
"Oh, for fuck sake." Hidan sighed.
Itachi looked over to Kisame. "You and Hidan find Deidara while I follow the other. I have the fear that something might happen." With that he simply walked away.
The two remaining Akatsuki members only looked at one another and shrugged. It would certainly take a while but they were sure they could find Deidara.
The Akatsuki members followed Ozpin through the gigantic hall underneath the school. They could hear there footsteps echoing across the hall and deeper into the darkness. "What you are about to see is something that other people might describe as fictional."
Soon they arrived at a huge Maschine that functioned as a life pod. Inside of this pod was a young girl and appeared to be in a coma. Her face was heavily scared as she seemed to breath normally.
"May I introduced, the current maiden of Fall. Amber." Ozpin said with a hint of regret in her voice.
"The what now?" Konan asked confused as she tried to analyze the situation they were in.
Kakuzu decided to explain. "I have red the legends of the maidens. There are a total of four who who each poses great powers from either an old wizard or a unknown entity. Anyway if a maiden dies the powers goes to the last person in her mind if that person is female, otherwise the powers searches a completely random female host."
Konan nodded her head. "Alrighty, got it."
"Are you just going to accept that? This must be quite a revelation to you." Glynda said.
Nagato shook his head and pointed to his eyes. "I was born with the eyes of a god. It takes more than some mystical girls with powers to surprise me."
The puppet master let out a loud grunt. "Alright, are we done with the explanation? I want to know firstly why she is in this condition and secondly what you want from me."
Ozpin nodded as he looked at Amber in the healing pod. "She was attacked which caused her to lose half of her powers to her assailant, ever since that day she remains in a coma with her vitals dropping. It not for the healing pod she would already be dead and her powers would fully go to her assailant. I can't let specialists know about this and so I was hoping that you might help her do something since you seemed to have a extremely high intelligence."
"You might catch a disease if you continue to kiss my ass like that." Sasori Muttered under his breath as he walked up to the healing pod to gather a fist impression. Sadly the only thing he could find that was interesting was Amber herself. She looked so sad that Sasori couldn't deny the urge to help her.
After Sasori checked all of her vitals he let out a sigh and turned to everyone watched him with anticipation. "Her body should be in perfect health and gives no explanation as to why she's slowly dying. That leads me to conclude that the reason must be connect with her missing powers. Nagato, you are familiar with that whole soul matter and what not. Could you give it a go?"
Nagato only shrugged as he walked up next to Sasori. The headmaster and the teacher only watched as Nagato laid his hand on the pod and remained quiet. After a while he turned to Sasori. "I can see her soul and a strange power that is latched on it like some sort of parasite. It looks like one major part is missing and left the soul with some serious wounds. Basically the soul is to damaged to fully operate a human body, wich is the cause of her slowly rotting away."
The puppet master threw his arms into the air with a annoyed grunt. "Fucking soul nonsense, can't even obey simply reason. Is there any way to heal a soul? In a literal meaning."
Nagato only shook his head.
"Can't you put like her mind into a Maschine ore something?" Konan asked feeling pity with the young girl in the pod.
Now Sasori shook his head. "I tried that experiment for my puppets long ago and failed. Every time I tried to do that with my voluntary patients there minds started to slowly melt away until they were even unfit to be puppets. I could try to send her through the same procedure I did to gain a puppet body but it's risky and I don't know how her powers influence the operation."
Ozpin ignored the fact that Sasori seemingly did human experiments and continued to concentrate on the problem at hand. "Maybe your previous test didn't work because you took only there minds and not there souls."
Sasori scratched his chin as he thought about it. That kind of explanation sounds extremely stupid and unrealistic but it makes more sense than he could come up with. He hated this mater of the soul, the stupid rules a soul obeys that don't even seem like rules in the first place. He looked over to Nagato who simply shrugged.
"I know it's impossible to simply put a soul in a object like a puppet and expect it to work. Maybe with the mind it could work but I would have to leave a part of her soul in her body to trick the power into believing that it still remains in a living human body. The moment it would leave her body it would consider Amber dead and returned to its other half." Nagato explained.
Kakuzu turned to Ozpin. "Looks like there is a possibility to help. However it's dangerous and could mean that the body in the pod simply remains as a container for the power. It's you call Ozpin."
The headmaster remained quiet. The thought of Amber turning into a puppet sickens him but the thought of her forever remaining like this even more. "It's better than to do nothing. Please help her."
The puppet master nodded. "Alright. Give me one week to prepare and read up on some things regarding this operations. Somebody might have published something about the topic of mind."
The Akatsuki members left the two teachers in the hall and returned to the elevator. Inside Konan turned to Sasori. "Do you really believe that it will work?"
"Yeah, I only need to build a new body for her. I might already have one." The thought of Minerva crossed his mind. That puppet was available and it only needed some minor adjustments for her to become the new Amber.
As the next day arrived the Akatsuki all did different things for the day. Deidara has apparently found a book store while he was lost with very interesting books. Konan decided to follow him just to make sure he doesn't get lost again and to look at those books herself. The paper angle didn't find any books that could interest her to this point and had hope that she could find something interesting to read.
Sasori and Nagato decided to go back to the vault were Amber was to rehearse the upcoming operation. The puppet master wanted to make sure he understood as much as possible considering the meaning of a soul and not risk anything.
The rest of the Akatsuki, Kakuzu Hidan and Kisame together with team RWBY were on the search for Blake and Itachi whom both have been missing for quite some time now. It appeared that black ran after revealing something that might connect her with the white fang. Itachi however never returned or even left a message after they split up yesterday.
"Blake! Blake! Come on guys you are not helping." Ruby said as they all wandered aimlessly through the streets.
Kakuzu sighed. "Screaming at the top of your lungs isn't really helping either. It just makes people look at us weirdly."
Hidan smiled. "Then let's give them something to fucking remember. HEY BLAKE! COME OUT HEAR RIGHT NO-!"
The immortal was stuck by the wrapped up sharkskin. "Screaming like that would scare her off."
Ruby helped Hidan back on his feet and urged them to continue. "Come on guys, we can't waist any more time."
"Could we please first clarify who that girl is that follows us for the longest time?" Kakuzu said while he pointed over his shoulder with his thumb.
She had short, rather curly orange hair that came down to her chin, and she wore a pink bow on the back of her head. She also had bright green eyes, light skin and freckles. She wore an old-fashioned blouse with short feminine overalls, as well as a black and green collar with a matching pair of stockings. "Salutations. What are you doing her friends." She greeted with a smile.
The group was taken by surprise as Ruby fumbled with her words and explained that they were searching for there friend Blake. "Oh! You mean the Fanus girl."
Yang rose a eyebrow. "Fanus girl?"
Kisame laughed. "Do not tell me you didn't notice."
Weiss put her hands to her hips. "What do you mean?"
The shark pointed over his head. "How do you think she keeps that bow so perfectly placed while fighting?"
That was the moment team RWBY remained quiet and thought about every moment about Blake. "She dose love tuna." Ruby whispered.
Again Kakuzu sighed. "Seriously she is your teammate and you didn't notice? Everyone of the Akatsuki noticed that pretty-."
"HOLY SHIT SHES A FANUS!?" Hidan busted out.
"God fucking damit Hidan." Kakuzu sight in defeat.
That was the moment when Yang brought up the idea that since they were so many that they should split up. From that moment Yang, weiss, Kakuzu and Kisame formed one team while the other team was Hidan, penny and Ruby. They split up and continue there search for Blake and Itachi.
Many hours faded away and it started getting darker outside. The group of Weiss was just exiting a shop in hopes to gather any clues but again it turned out to be a waist of time.
"Why can't we just stop? This is pointless." Kakuzu sighed as he let himself hang. He is happy not being forced to stick around with Hidan any longer but he could think of other activities then walking around the entire day. Counting money sounded a lot more thrilling, maybe even earring money.
Yang shot Kakuzu a glare. "Aren't you in a least bit concerned about your friend? I know that I'm worried about mine."
The immortal calmly answered herd. "The difference between you and me seems that I have absolute trust that my friend can handle himself. Just ask Kisame."
The shark nodded. "Yes, if anyone tries to kidnap that guy, he will be in a world of hurt. Specifically seventy two hours of pain in one second. By the way, how much will you pay me to not spill to Hidan that you just called Itachi your friend."
"I'll tell you what I will not do, rip out your heart." The immortal answered with a glare that confirmed that he wasn't joking.
"Fair enough. Anyway do you guys even want to find her? After all she is a Fanus and might have ties with the white fang, which you made very clear that you detest them Weiss." Kisame answered with a smile.
"Of course I want to find her, I'm just worried what she will say when we find her. The innocent never run." Weiss said defensively.
Kisame could only chuckle. "That's true, but shame makes chases of the most innocent of lambs. In fact, we did probably worse then the white fang to this point."
Yang looked at them confused. "What do you mean?"
"Maybe you will one day see." Kakuzu answered bluntly and continued to walk.
The group remained silent as they continued to walk.
In a other part of town Hidan was utterly annoyed with the avalanche of questions that rolled out of Penny's mouth. Why this? Why that? It was truly annoying.
The moon already hung high above there heads. Suddenly there was a explosion far away in by the docks. The immortal sprang immediately into action and urged the girls to check it out. "Please, come one I hadn't had a good amount of carnage in so long."
The two girls didn't really understand what the immortal was talking about but this could actually be something. Maybe even Blake and Itachi.
Some time before the explosion Blake and the monkey boy silently sat down on the roof that overlooked the docks filled with containers of the Schnee dust company. "Want a bite?" The monkey offered her a apple.
"Do you always break the law without a second thought Sun?" Blake answered weakly.
"I don't think theft is on your top ten list of concerns at the moment." Itachi said as he suddenly appeared standing next to Blake all of the sudden.
Naturally the two Fanus were surprised at the sudden appearance of Itachi and jumped on there feet. "What are you?! A ninja?!"
"Shinobi." Itachi answered as his eyes remained on the docks.
Blake looked at him with anger. "Itachi, how did you find us."
"Didn't have to. I have been with you the moment you started to get into a fight with Weiss." Itachi bluntly said.
"W-wait that was over twenty four hours ago. Have you been stalking me this entire time?!" Blake said completely surprised.
The uchiha simply nodded. "Yup, I also eavesdrop on all of your conversations so I am up to date about your whole white fang adventure."
Sun was slowly turned to Blake. "Don't tell me that this is the kind of company you keep?"
Before however she could answer the other Fanus a Bullhead flew to the docks. Out of it Jumped a bunch of white fang members and one Roman Torchwick. "Come one people, we aren't really sneaky hear!"
Blake clenched her fist at what she saw how the white fang seemingly workt together with a human, which didn't make any sense to her. "We have to figure out what is happening."
With that she jumped down from the roof and sneaked through the container closer to her target. Sun followed her while Itachi remained put and observed everything.
He watched as Blake sneaked up behind Roman and placed the sharp part of the back of her blade to his neck while aiming its pistol toward the White Fang members. When she asks them why they are working for him, Roman smiled as he said it was something like a business venture. Soon, more Bullheads appear, distracting Blake and allowing Roman to escape her grasp by firing a shot from His cane near her feet, wich caused her to fly back. He then proceeds to fire more shots at her, while she gymnastically dodges every blast before retreating. As Roman went after her, Sun came out to distract him and took out several White Fang warriors in the process with his staff.
Itachi only watched as he shook his head. The white fang grunts obviously didn't know how to fight as they swung around there blades and guns like amateurs. He questioned however why Blake or Sun didn't go for any kills. Didn't they want to?
Whatever the case he had enough of this show and jumped down right in the middle of the battlefield. One of the grunts pointed there gun at him to which he reacted naturally. He closed his eyes, drew his sword, ran up to him and easily cut of both of the Fanus's arms.
The intense scream of the white fang member stopped the entire battle as everyone now looked with horror at the armless Fanus cowering at Itachi's feet in pain. Itachi eyes remained close as he ended the screaming by piercing him through the skull with one of his blades.
"You fuckin human!" One of the white fang members screamed as two pointed there guns at him. Before they could fire however Itachi simply threw both of his blades at the white fang members. The blades pierced there throats and returned just as fast into Itachi's hand thanks to the magnets in Itachi's gloves. He definitely needed to thank Sasori later for this.
The area remained silent as everyone was horrified at Itachi. No one dared to move a muscle, fearing that they might be the next one to die. "What kind of monster are you?" Roman asked with complete fear in his voice.
Itachi body turned towards him, his face, cloth and weapons covered in blood while his eyes remained shut. "Monster? I have heard that, time and time again. However you only know somebody if you look into there soul and as everyone knows the eyes are the window to ones soul. Tell me, how dose my soul look like?" With that he opened his eyes and started directly into Roman's eyes.
Roman fell instantly to the ground as he had been through one hour of torturing in Itachi's illusion world. He didn't want to use his Mangeko on him so that's why he did a smaller version of the Tsukojome. "Pritt terrifying right?" He asked.
Roman breathed heavily as he looked over to Itachi. He had been through torture but he also had a little chat with Itachi. After a certain name escaped Roman's lips the uchiha was more then willing to plan something with him.
"Retreat!" Roman ordered as everyone started to running to the Bullhead's, Itachi calmly let everyone run as Blake and Sun were still stunned as to what they saw. one of the members of the white fang felt a extreme pain in his back as he slumped over and died. The other members saw Hidan retrieving his scythe from his first victim, ripping out the Fanuses spine in the process and continued to run towards them with a twisted grin. "I have waited to long! All will be sacrificed!" He roared.
"HIDAN STOP!"
The immortal turned around to see Ruby looking at him with tears in her eyes. I was clear that she had never seen a dead person before, let alone see somebody die.
Meanwhile the bullheads flew of into the distance and Hidan grunted with frustration. "WHAT RUBY?! I had only one kill in this entire fucking fight while Itachi had the most fun. I could have easily boarded at least one ship."
Ruby shook her head and slowly backed off. "Fun? Only one kill? What Is wrong with you?"
"Ruby l-" Hidan said before he saw that Blake and Sun moved next to her. All three of them looked frightened at the immortal and the uchiha, Blake and sun even continued to clench there weapons. Sirens could be heard and only moments later they were confronted by police officers.
It ended quite simply, everyone was asked what had happened and everyone gave there answers. The two Akatsuki members were seated father away from Ruby, Blake an Sun and as Kakuzu and Kisame came they were seated with there teammates.
"You guys look like you had fun." Kisame said with a smile.
Itachi nodded. "Yeah, fun. I believe however we might have burned some bridges in the process."
Kakuzu looked over to the now reunited team RWBY who seemed to come to an agreement. He also noticed that everyone looked worried over to the now covered up corpses of the white fang members and then over to the Akatsuki members. He could here whisper. "It was only a matter of time. Anything else interesting?"
Hidan didn't say a word, he only continued to look at his bloodied hands. The image of Ruby didn't leave his mind, how disappointed she looked, how disgusted and terrified, but why? Killing is naturally, shouldn't it be for someone who wants to become a hunter? A hunter kills, so what if the prey was a bit different. So why did he feel so dam guilty?
"We have a appointment tomorrow." Itachi simply said. It would take a while until the police would release them but the uchiha wanted to be done with it as quickly as possible. He yearned for his bead.
The next evening Roman entered a abandoned warehouse. During his touring in Itachi's illusion it turned out that they had a common enemy, so they agreed to meet hear if he really wanted revenge. "Anybody here?" He called.
"Your late."
Roman jumped and turned around to see Nagato standing there. The Akatsuki leader wore his Akatsuki robe since this was business with the Akatsuki.
Roman regained himself and stood proud in a professional manner. "I'm sorry but I had to make sure I wasn't followed. I take it you are a member of the Akatsuki. Were might the others be?"
"I am Nagato, the leader of the Akatsuki. You will talk to me, as for the others." Nagato looked up. Roman followed his gaze to see the outlines of the Akatsuki in the moonlight above them.
"Nice entrance, but let's get down to the important part. Sadly I don't have much time but I will assure you all that I will cooperate with you fully." Roman simply said as his gaze returned to Nagato.
Nagato looked him in the eyes. "You will inform us on all important activities of the white fang and in exchange we will help you in a personal matter?"
Roman nodded. "I had a partner called Neo, we were the best duo you could imagine. That stupid girl decided to sacrifice herself to that snake basterd only to save me. I'm sure he threatened to take my life otherwise, but I know that she is still alive. I only want her back, whatever the kost."
Nagato nodded and gave Roman a scroll. "This device has been modified by our puppet master, its a save way to communicate to its counterpart which we have. Now that the basic stuff is out of the way could we now use the rest of the time to talk about a certain Orochimaru?"
"Yes, but first I need to tell you about the woman who walks with him. A woman named Cinder."
