Sorry this is so late; my summer is so busy right now! Dx

The next morning when Ban woke up she got out of bed and looked at the time,

"I still have another hour before I need to start getting ready," she said to herself. She put on a robe and shoes, and opened her window and jumped out. Her room was on the third floor, but she landed on her feet easily. She started walking deeper into the woods.

Megami walked into the kitchen where her sister was cooking breakfast for everyone and her new boyfriend was sitting at the table, listening to his IPOD. There was a knock on the kitchen door and all three teens yelled,

"Come in Akuma!" The said boy walked in and went over to Hime, and leaned on the counter next to the stove.

"Good morning, Love," he said in a crappy fake British accent, Hime rolled her eyes,

"How are you today, Aki?" she asked as she put some pieces of bacon on each plate,

"Good, thanks for asking," he said and kissed her on the cheek. Hime blushes a bit but hid it behind her long auburn hair.

"Hey Uchiah (1)!" Okane said as he got up from his chair, "Come with me to wake the kids up," he said and Akuma nodded and followed him upstairs.

"You get the girls and I'll get the boys?" The raven haired boy asked,

"Sure," Okane said and he headed down the hallway to his sister's room. Akuma went the opposite direction and found his way to Mizu's room.

"Rise and shine little blue!" he said in a cheerful voice, like he did every morning. Akuma heard a quiet snore coming from the dark room and walked over to the 7 year olds' bed and threw the covers off,

"UGH! WHAT?" The little boy complained and glared up at the young teen,

"Come on Kiddo, breakfast is almost ready," Akuma said in a cheerful voice. Mizu threw the covers over himself again,

"Wake me up when it is actually ready," he said and shut his eyes again. Akuma, who was starting to get annoyed, decided it was time for plan B.

The raven haired teen threw the covers off the younger Uchiah and picked him up,

"AKUMA!" he complained as he was carried out of his room. Akuma carried Mizu all the way to the kitchen and set the tired boy at the table.

"Thank you Aki," Hime said cheerfully and put a plate in front of Mizu. Akuma nodded and left to go get Yahiko.

After Yahiko, Mizu, and Kokoro were all in the kitchen, Okane walked in.

"Ummm, Ban's gone," he said and everyone dropped what they were doing. Megami was the first to speak,
"What do you mean she's gone?" She said in a demanding tone to her boyfriend.

"I mean she wasn't in her room," he said and the worried teen was about to run out the back door when it opened.

They all saw Ban walk through it and she saw everyone starring at her,

"Ban, where have you been?" Megami asked as she hugged the little girl,

"On a walk," she said in a confused tone, "why, un?"

"Banny, you can't just leave like that, it's dangerous!" Megami said and Ban looked down,

"I'm sorry," she said in a sad tone. She knew that the day would come when Megami would start hating her,

"…It's okay," the auburn haired girl said with a sigh, "just don't leave without telling me first, okay?" she said and Ban nodded and went to join the other four kids at the table.

The day was rolling along fast for Megami and soon it was lunch time. She walked to her table with her tray of food, but before she could get there, the cheerleaders surrounded her.

"Hey look, it's the loser!" Hoshi said,

Hoshi was the head cheerleader and bossed everyone around, but what she loved to do most was make Hime work like a dog. Just because she shared the last name as Megami and looked a lot like her, even if their attitudes where completely different, Hoshi saw the resemblance.

"What do you sluts want?" Megami asked, she meant all of them except Hime of course; she just had to keep up the act.

"Your one to talk, did Okane get into your pants yet? Since you two ARE dating!" A different girl said, word spreads fast in a village like this.

"Actually unlike you guys, I have some dignity and I don't do things like that!" She said and this displeased them.

Suddenly Hoshi turned to Hime,

"Hime, be a doll and knock that tray out of her hands," she said and Hime went wide eyed,

"W-What?" she said in a shocked tone,

"Did I stutter? Just do it!" Hoshi yelled and Hime turned her gaze to her sister, "or are you hiding a 'secret friendship' or something to us and are too afraid to hurt your 'buddy'?" she asked with a laugh,

"N-No! I am not!" she said and Megami glared at Hoshi. How DARE her make Hime do something uncomfortable that she doesn't want to do! She turned her gaze back to her sister who was looking at her with a 'help me' expression. Megami sighed and nodded and watched as Hime looked down and walk over to her.

All of the cheerleaders watched as Hime knocked the tray out of her sister's hands. Hime mouthed 'Sorry' to her as the cheerleaders burst into laughed. Megami mouthed back 'Don't mention it' before pretending to storm off to her table.

-x-

"Megi, I am so so so so SO sorry!" Hime said for the 18th time on the way home. She wanted to make it up to her sister, so she left right when the last bell rang and ran ahead so she could wait for Megami, Okane, and the kids to pass her on their way home.

"For the last Hime, I am fine. They forced you to do it, so it's not your fault," Megami reassured her,

"B-But I just feel so awful for what I've done, I can never forgive myself!" Hime said,

"Hime, it was just a tray of food! I wasn't even hungry because of that delicious breakfast you made this morning!" Megami reassured and her sister sighed. She knew she was annoying her sister and just decided to shut up and drop it.

When they got home they were surprised to see it unlocked. That was weird; no one was ever home at this time.

"You four stay here," Okane whispered to the kids as he took out Wanshotto. Hime was ready to activate her Rinnegan and Megami made her arm to paper, ready to attack.

"On three we charge in," Hime whispered, "One…"

"Two…" Megami said,

"THREE!" Okane yelled as he slammed the door open and the three teenagers jumped inside their home.

They instantly saw two figures and were about to attack, but they suddenly stopped.

"Honestly, can't you control them?" One of the intruders asked,

"Not my fault, I didn't think school would be over this soon," the other one said.

Ban, Yahiko, Kokoro, and Mizu went inside to see what was going on and they all gasped,

"Dad!" Yahiko yelled and ran over and hugged his father,

"Hey Bud," Pein said and patted his son's head. Pein's companion starred at his daughter,

"D-D-Daddy?" Ban said in shock as she starred right into Sasori's eyes. The redhead dropped to his knees and extended his arms,

"Come here, Ban," he said with a smile. Ban started to tear up and was about to run to him when all of a sudden Megami yelled,

"NO!" Everyone looked at her; she was glaring at the redhead.

"Megami?" Pein asked his daughter, but she just ignored him,

"Ban, don't you dare go to him, he's a monster!" she said in a threatening voice. Ban looked from Sasori to Megami, who was she going to listen to?

"Ban…come to Daddy…I promise, I won't hurt you again," Sasori said,

"He's lying Ban! Don't listen to him! Remember what he put your mother threw! Remember what he made your bother do!" Megami yelled as she tried to break free of the chakra strings that trapped her (when they walked in Sasori used his chakra strings to stop them from attacking him and Pein).

Ban just stood there, she was so confused. Suddenly a little girl, who couldn't be any older than three years old, with red hair and green eyes skipped in the room,

"Daddy! Kagayaku is hunwy!" the little girl said to Sasori. The said redhead wrapped his arms around her,

"Kagay, I want you to meet your sister, Ban," He said in a soft voice and pointed to his daughter. Kagayaku's eyes lit up as she ran to her sister. Ban looked at the strange girl.

"Who are you, un?" She asked curiously,

"My name is Kagayaku, and you awe my sissy!" The baby said with a huge smile on her face. Ban looked up at Sasori,

"She needed me," He said, "I had to leave for her sake, Banny, just like I came home for your sake," Ban nodded and turned to her new sister,

"Hi Kagayaku, my name is Ban, un," she said and wrapped her arms around the baby and pulled her in for a hug, "I am so glad to meet you, un, you know, you are very lucky to have a Daddy like ours," she whispered in her hair,

"Kagayaku knows, Daddy is the best Daddy in the whole wide wowld!" she said and ran to her Daddy's arms, she was soon followed by Ban. Sasori was so happy to have BOTH of his daughters in his arms right now. He released the teenagers and they went over to Pein,

"So how did this happen?" Okane asked and Pein smirked,

"I have been looking for Sasori's location ever since Dei died and Ato left… I thought he deserved to know…and when I told him he wanted to come home and be there for Ban, but he couldn't leave Kagayaku there by herself, so he decided to bring her along," they all nodded as they watched the reunion between Sasori and Ban.

Hime was in her room, getting ready for bed. She looked in the mirror at the broses all over her face and ran a hand across them, 'Just a little while longer…Then he will tell me-' her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on her door. She quickly turned the lights off and jumped into bed. The door opened and her father walked in,

"Hime, are you awake?" He asked with a bit of annoyance in his voice,

"Yeah?" she said in a sort of tired, confused voice. Pein didn't bother turning the lights on, and just came in and sat on the foot of her bed,

"Listen, I overheard Okane and Megami talking, and I heard what you did at lunch today," he said in a sort of angry tone. Hime looked away,

"I told her I was sorry," she said,

"Well Hime, sorry doesn't cut it! Ever since I allowed you to become a cheerleader…" he stopped dead sentence, "ever since your mother allowed you to become a cheerleader," he corrected, "I have been hearing nothing but complaints from your school that you have done to your sister," Hime grew silent, "Look Hime, I know times have been hard, with us not really having a leader anymore, and all the members we are losing…but you have to understand, Megami is suffering too, and you can't go around bullying your own sister!" he said and Hime just looked away,

"I-I'm sorry," she said as she started to tear up. Pein sighed; nothing hurt him more than somebody crying,

"Hime, it's okay, I know life is hard for you too right now, come here," he turned the lamp on her bed side table on and was about to pull her into a hug when he noticed her face. "Hime!" He practically yelled, "What happened to you?" he asked in horror.

Hime looked away,

"It's nothing," she said,

"Nothing my ass! Who did this to you!"

"Nobody! Just leave it alone!" she yelled. Hime wasn't the type to yell at anyone, especially not her father. This worried Pein. He griped her shoulders and pulled her up,

"Hime Nagato, you tell me who did this right now!" He demanded and his daughter cried out in pain. He looked at her shoulders (that were covered in a blanket before he pulled her up) and saw they were badly bruised as well. This made Pein angrier and he stood up,

"P-Please, d-don't hurt me!" She screamed as tears fell from her eyes. Pein's expression softened,

"Why would I hurt you?" he asked and gently pushed her hair out of her face. She flinched back,

"P-Please, just leave me alone!" she begged. Pein thought for a moment before tucking his daughter in, kissing her head, and turning the lamp off. Before he walked out he stopped at the door and saw she was still crying.

With a sigh he walked out, 'Hime, what happened to you?' He asked in his head as he walked downstairs.

Uh-oh, Pein is mad 0_o

For those of you who don't get it. This whole time Hime has been hiding the bruises with a lot pf make-up and when Pein saw her, she wasn't wearing any.

Anyways I again I am so sorry this is so late, my summer has been really busy, and plus, I have been working on a lot of different stories that I am not putting up on FanFiction till they are finished (I might put one up called 'Kiss from a rose' since I am done with that, but only when I find the time to do it).

(1)He is not Itachi's son…
