He looked at her, Then he walked over and sat in a chair at the corner of the room.
" Your going to loose her if you ceep this up Itachi," came a voice.
Itachi noticed Sasori at the door.
"hn I do not care for this girlSasori." He said.
" You cant fool me Itachi," Sasori said, He had come to like Shizen and well She was the future leader as well. He had seen teh way they had looked at eachother befor.
" I do not care for this stupid girl Sasori! She is nothing at all, nothing." Itachi growled and walked off.
Sasori sighed then looked at Shizen." Shizen-chan I know your awake."

Late that night a figure had snuck inside the base and went twards Shizen, He grabed her and the dog next to her befor dissapearing.
" You all try my patience! Did I not instruct that you were supposed to watch her?" Pein growled.
Itachi frowned. He had been watching her and left only for a while to use the bathroom when he returned she was gone." I am sorry I only went itno the next room and Kisame was watching the door. She could not have escaped." Itachi said,
" Noo I suppose not...............Ah! I remember! there is only one who could sneak into my base withought anyones notice." Pein said,
The group leand close and listend,
" Gaara of the dessert!"
Gaara had Shizen in his arms and Sesshomaru was held by his sand.
"G...Garra?" Shizen said.
"hn. How did you get yourself into this mess?"He asked,
"oh, I am their leaders daughter. He wants to make me the next leader but I dont wanna be." She said befor slipping back into darkness.
Shizen spent time with Gaara for a while and was able to return she enterd the village she saw Naruto and Orashi.
" NARUOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She yeled takling him.
" SHIZEN!" He said happily.
Then she takled Orashi." I missed you guys!" She said. Sesshomaru just sat there boardly.

Many people dressed in fine cloths dancing, This was a spetial occation! It was The Sakura blossom festible! Many spun, twirled and moved across the floor. All stopped however when three figures stepped out into the room. There stood Orashi, Shizen adn Sesshomaru. Shizen had on a blood red strapples dress that showed her curves nicley and it flared out at the bottom. She smiled and walked down to the floor. All the males had masks on.
" Shizen!!!!!!!" a voice called.
