W00T!! I just came back from a field trip to the amusement park!! It took over six hours to get there, and some other things, but it was still awesome!!

"Itachi?" Konan asked, walking into the hotel room. After knocking her unconscious, Itachi and Konan transported Autumn to the heart of Iwagakure without complaint nor hassle. (Via ninja airlines) As soon as they got their, Itachi rented a few rooms in a hotel, and enjoyed some free time. (As if he did anything anyway) But there was a problem, Autumn didn't wake us as she should've.

"Hn?"

"She's been asleep for almost three days now,"

"Hn,"

"What exactly did you do to her? Last time the sharingan's effects only too about an hour to wear off, and that was before she aquired it for herself,"

"Hn,"

"And now that she has it, she should be able to recover faster, or even repel the effects,"

"Hn,"

"That means that she should have recovered within the first few minutes,"

"Hn,"

"Or it shouldn't have effected her at all,"

"Hn,"

"What do you think?"

"Hn,"

"Is that all that you can say?"

"Hn,"

"Itachi..." Konan warned, as she was preparing herself to give him one heck of a paper cut.

"... She didn't have her sharingan activated at the time," he said simply.

"But according to her reactions, she knew that it was coming!"

"Autumn has had her sharingan activated for two weeks straight without fainting, and she has only just learned to deactivate it, and even after she did, it took her a while to be able to do it. I can only imagine how long it will take her before she is able to freely activate, and deactivate her sharingan without having to stop and concentrate," he explained.

"Aa, but you never answered my question, what exactly did you do to her, she should still be awake by now," Itachi paused and thought over his words before replying.

"The actual effects of tsukuyomi last for a very long period of time,"

"But, last time-!"

"Last time I didn't hit her as hard, also she closed her eyes halfway before she took the full effect,"

"So that means-!"

"That she won't wake up for..."

"For?"

"I don't know, but the effects of tsukuyomi could become fatal if not treated properly,"

"So what you're saying is that she could die?"

"If not treated," Konan took a minute to let this information sink in,

"YOU MEAN THAT YOU KILLED HER!?"

"No, she's still currently unconscious. Please take into account that I have done this before,"

"YOU'VE SENT HER NEAR DEATH BEFORE!?" she knew the he used sharingan, but she didn't know that there were risks.

"Twice, but then she was treated,"

"Who treated her then?"

"... Tobi,"

"But he's not here, so that means..."

"There's no one to treat her..."

"YOU PHYCOPATH!! IF SHE DIES, THEN WE'RE AS GOOD AS DEAD ALREADY!!"

"...Hn,"

"AAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!"

"WILL YOU TWO JUST SHUT UP!!"

"You knew that she was awake the whole time, didn't you?"

"Hn,"

After being tsukuyomi'ed twice already, Autumn's body was starting to get used to the effects. Also having the sharingan helped a lot too. Konan sighed and left the room, Itachi following her. Autumn sighed herself, she hadn't actually been asleep, she had just been resting. The long walk, and the tsukuyomi both took a lot out of her. Sitting up, Autumn looked around, she had been conscious five minutes after Itachi had tsukuyomi'ed her, but of course, she didn't object to being carried.

The room was plain. The walls were white, and the floor was just wood. The bed she was in was basically a hospital bed, it even included the plain white sheets! There was another outfit that Autumn assumed came from her house since it looked like something she would wear back home.

Showering and getting dressed, Autumn walked across the hallway to where Itachi was staying. She knocked on the door, and waited. Both Itachi and Konan came out, only they were using henge to disguise themselves.

"Are you ready?" Itachi asked, he had changed his hair so that it was blonde, and it looked untamed. Also he wasn't wearing his Akatsuki cloak anymore. Konan had changed her hair so that it was brown, and she was wearing a kimono now.

"I guess," Autumn had the strange feeling that she should have stayed in bed.

As the trio walked down the streets of Iwagakure, Autumn was shocked at how lively the place was! There were children playing in the streets, and the people were so friendly! Itachi, who was leading the way, grabbed Autumn's arm, and pushed her into a shop that she was just about to walk past.

The place was wall to wall covered in pink. Itachi pulled out a random shirt and told Autumn to try it on... Sadly for her, it fit.

"Do you like it?" Autumn forced herself to smile,

"Sure, just I don't want to be selfish, it's the last one on the rack, I'd want someone more deserving to have it," and with that, Autumn ripped off the shirt and fled the store before she could die from pink overdose.

"I don't think she liked it," Konan said, leaving. Itachi shrugged, and followed.

Quickly taking the lead, Itachi took them to another store, and this one was just as bad as the last.

"Umm... Itachi?" Konan started, but he just shushed her, and ushered Autumn into the store. Said girl who wasn't paying attention, followed him without protest. She didn't see the problem until it was too late.

"Aniki? she mentally questioned his judgement. It was a kimono shop, and Itachi was currently browsing the shelves, looking for something in particular. Truthfully, Autumn didn't have a problem with wearing kimonos, but she couldn't move in them. Finally Itachi found something and brought it over to her, and Konan. Now this Autumn had a problem with, it was pink.

"What about this?" Autumn, not wanting to answer the question, hide behind Konan. Instead, Itachi looked to Konan for a sigh of approval.

"It looks nice," shrugged Konan, she turned to face Autumn with a smirk on her face, apparently, she was still sore about that morning. Luckily, Autumn knew something like this was coming, and she had already thought of the perfect excuse for it,

"Aniki, Leader-sama said that I was going to be attending the academy, right?" she asked innocently.

"Hn," (He says that way too much)

"If I'm going to train at the academy, I might need something that I can move around in," Thankfully Itachi understood, (still not catching the hint, but getting the point) she was right. But he bought the kimono anyway, because Konan said it was nice. Also, Leader said to buy anything to keep her busy, waisting time in a store counted as keeping her busy, so.

Calmly walking (Running as fast as she could) out of the store, Autumn, Itachi, and Konan proceeded to another store, this one (hopefully) had what Autumn would need to become a ninja.

And it did. Walking into another store, Autumn frowned. EVERYTHING was either pink, purple, or yellow. The sad part was that it had everything she would need, from katanas, to shuriken, the place had it all.

'Note to self: NEVER let Itachi pick the store,'

"Nii-san? I'll probably need clothes that'll blend in. Just in case," Itachi went deep into thought for a moment and then nodded. She was right (again). Konan dragged Itachi out of the store and followed Autumn, who had already found another store.

This one was one heck of a lot better then the ones Itachi picked out. It had a lot of camo, and plain colors as well. everything was dark, and there was (little to no) pink. With Konan's help, Autumn picked out a few good outfits she could wear to the academy. She knew enough so that she would graduate very quickly, and as soon as she did, she would be officially accepted into the akatsuki (once again against her will). She picked out some tank tops (red, black, orange, green) and a few pairs of shorts (burgundy, black, red, kaki, brown) and a pair of capris (black). She had told Itachi that she was going to do something with her clothes after she became an official member so she bought some sewing supplies too. Just as Autumn finished her small shopping spree, Itachi walked over to her, holding a t-shirt. From the way that he was holding it, it looked normal enough, but when he held it up, Autumn immediately saw what was wrong with it, ithe front side was covered with PINK flowers.

"... No" Autumn said taking the bag with her clothes from Konan, and walked out of the store, and back to the hotel.

About an hour later...

Autumn was currently in the process of banging her head against the wall. Why? Because she had just gotten through with a long and tedious conversation with Itachi and Konan about his obsession with pink.

Flashback: Fifteen Minutes Earlier

"What is you're problem!? Everywhere we went today had PINK! I was ready to die of pink overdose!"

"It's just the way he is, I remember one time-" he cut her off,

"If you dare finish that sentence, I will kill you where you stand," Konan separated herself into random sheets of paper, and left the room.

"... What happened?"

"Hn,"

"You're no fun," trying to get off that topic, Itachi tried to answer her previous question,

"When I was younger, I was always followed around by girls in my fan club, most girls I saw wore a lot of pink, so I thought that it was just natural for girls to wear pink," Autumn twitched,

"You've obviously never dealt with a tomboy before have you?"

"... Hn,"

"SHUT UP!! You've been living with me for MONTHS! You should know by now that I DON"T LIKE PINK!! PINK IS MY ENEMY!!"

"... Hn,"

"ARGH!!"

End Flashback...

After that, he and Konan left for a side mission that they had just received, leaving Autumn to bang her head against the wall.

"Baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, baka, ba-" Autumnn chanted, until someone cut her off.

"Could you please stop that?" a voice said from the door. Hearing this Autumn froze, that voice was awfully familiar. Looking through the peep hole on the door, she saw the owner of the unusually polite voice. Staggering back in shock, Autumn hid under the bed. That was why Itachi and Konan had left in the first place! After the hawk that delivered the message had left, Itachi read the message out loud, it said that Kabuto was sighted near the border of Stone, and Waterfall about a week ago, who knew how far he could've traveled in that amount of time!

"Thank you," he said, leaving. Autumn listened to the footsteps fade and let out her held breath, that was close. For about a week, Autumn was going to be all alone, because Konan and Itachi were going to complete their mission no matter what, but in her mind, they had already failed. Their enemy was right under their noses, and now Autumn was in trouble.

-does a little dance- It's finally done!! even though it's not as funny as I thought it would be, Kabuto's back! Wait until next time!!
