Autumn, being the true friend that she was, stayed with May until all feelings were resolved. This included hearing May rant and rave about Harry Potter, for an extra hour after she felt better. Only after she felt May was going to be okay for the next year or so, did Autumn leave. She conveniently forgot to tell May that she was leaving, but she thought that it would be for the best. Sometimes goodbyes were unnecessary. As she walked away from May's house, and the small quiet neighborhood that she lived in, Autumn began to feel uneasy. She knew that she had no real choice in the matter. It was either leave or die. (More lose-lose situations) As she kept on her lonely road, she started to think about a few things, what was going to happen to her? She didn't want to go off to anime land. Even though they were being nice to her, she had to remember, they were all S-class criminals. They had killed hundreds of people in the past.

Before she went back to the mansion, Autumn took a detour in the tunnels, taking her to the shopping district. She had packed her money before, and was currently carrying it. A little shopping wouldn't hurt. Right? As Autumn walked toward the mall, she suddenly felt as if she was being watched. Turning around, Autumn quickly scanned the trees, seeing nothing, she brushed it off as paranoia.

Once again unknown to her, Autumn really was being watched. For she had missed the small speck of gleaming silver in the trees.

After Autumn's extremely short shopping spree...

It was about noon, and she hadn't even bought anything of importance. She still had almost all of her money, and there wasn't much to do now, but go home and face her destiny. According to Itachi, she didn't have to pack that much of her stuff, because she would have to change it all once she got there. She wouldn't be able to wear her old clothes or anything! She was going to renew her wardrobe, go through actual training at an academy, and then she would be forced to join the akatsuki. Also Itachi said that since he was originally he was sent to kill her, no one knew that she was stil alive, so it would take a long time for all of this to officially be arranged. Meaning that she would have to live with them for a while before they sent her off to an academy in another village. They had breifly discussed the matter, and it was already decided that she wasn't going to the academy in Konoha, Oto, or Suna. Probably not Mist either. Itachi seemed to have talked to Kabuto about it too, because he was worried about her chances of escaping and making her way to Konoha without them knowing. Walking above ground, Autumn stopped walking, and quickly threw a shuriken at the tree behind her. Apparently it hit something, because as soon as it went up, it came back down. But this time it was aimed at her.

Instead of doing the whole "ninja" thing, she just side stepped it, and watched it plant itself into the hollow ground.

"Come out Kabuto!" she shouted at the tree. Just now taking a look at her surroundings, Autumn realized that she had walked far enough as the cemetery. Not good. This area was between the shopping district, and the rest of town. It was basically a wide open space, with a lot of trees. To the side there was a fence, marking the borders of the cemetery. There were three different cemeteries that Autumn knew of in the area. East, West, and South. Each one was fairly large, but the most noticeable thing was the fact that if you looked around, and away from it, there was nothing but one two-way road separating the cemetery, from the wide empty field across from it. No people, and hardly any cars. What could happen between a mildly confused child, and a trained ninja spy? Pain.

Kabuto jumped to the ground, smirking.

"What are you smirking at?" Autumn asked angrily, "You could have killed me!" She really didn't care about that, she was mad that he could have been spying on her and May. If anyone knew too much about her personal life, her friends could be in trouble.

"Well then, I guess I'm lucky you dodged that then, aren't I?" Autumn twitched, Kabuto really pissed her off sometimes. Autumn sighed,

"Are you going to tell me, or are you going to actually make me ask?"

"Ask what?" He watched as Autumn twitched for a second time,

"Listen, that stupid innocent act may have worked on the rookie nine, but not on me, so cut it out!" She yelled, something was up.

"You're obviously not here to congratulate me!"

"Very clever. If you must know, I am actually here to take you back to Orochimaru-sama, before Itachi-san gets a chance to take you out of our range," Autumn twitched again.

"You people have issues," she said, still twitching. Kabuto, just adjusted his glasses, and took advantage of her momentary weakness, he grabbed her, and dragged her off to god-knows-where.

Actually the place where he took her was a crypt in the cemetery next to them.

"Why am I here with a bunch of dead people?" she asked, staring at a spider that was hovering above Kabuto's head.

"Oh, no, there aren't any dead people here at the moment. You see the people previously in the crypt were used in a few of my projects," Autumn twitched, she could not believe that he just stood there, and openly admitted that! Yep, these people had serious issues. Autumn watched as Kabuto opened a scroll, and looked at it for a minute. She took this as her chance to escape! Autumn slowly started to creep away, but before she got very far, she was caught by a clone.

"I'm sorry, but were you going somewhere?" the clone asked, as a few more started to appear.

"Yes. Well I was until you got in my way," The clone smiled, and hit a pressure point in her arm.

"Ow!" Autumn rubbed the sore spot, until she realized that her arm felt numb.

"What did you do!?" she tried to move her arm, but it wouldn't respond.

"Don't worry, it will repair itself later," The newly formed army of Kabuto clones attacked her limbs until she fell to the ground, unable to move.

"I'm really sorry, but we can't have you moving around," the real Kabuto said from across the room. Still on the ground, Autumn heard a few "Clapping" sounds, and then the room, in her line of vision, slowly started to disappear, and instead of the world going black, it went white...

I FINALLY DID IT!!

I found the directions on how to make an origami shuriken! And it works!

Okay, real news My band won first place it our contest this morning, and I'm happy because I had to play four solos in the stupid song, and my clarinet kept trying to squeak, but I wouldn't let it!

The part that actually matters:

This chapter doesn't serve much purpose but to tell ya what's happening, I KNEW HE WASN'T TO BE TRUSTED!!

Please Review! (Also, If you haven't read my new story "Wealel Boi" read it it's funny! It's not really a story, it's a parody of "Skater Boi" except connected to this story.)

Please don't forget to take my new poll, even though I'm sure of the outcome already.
