Sasori and Deidara made it to the hideout silently, both thinking about the call and texts that appeared on the girl's phone.
Sasori, who is with you? Leader contacted Sasori. This girl, we found her in the desert and she has information that could put all of us in danger. Sasori replied through his own thoughts. Bring her in. Sasori and Deidara did the usual hand seals to release the barrier on the hideout. They walked in and walked through the hideout. When they reached the living room they caught some attention.
"Oi! Blondie! Who's the chick?" Hidan asked as he approached the two redheads, he poked the female of the two.
"Lets go, Brat. Leader needs to see us." They walked through the winding hallways you would get lost in if you didn't live there. They finally reached the doors to Leader's office. Sasori knocked once and loud.
"Come in, Sasori, Deidara." Leader's voice echoed through the hall. Sasori opened the door and walked in, Deidara following. Sasori just held the girl on his shoulder and handed a folder to their leader, the report for their mission. "Thank you, Sasori. Please tell me more about this girl." Deidara was the one to step up, since he was the one who knew the most.
"Well, un, I found her after some sort of training with her grandmother. She collapsed and said something about that she couldn't sleep, not now, un. She looked like she had been up for days. I appeared and she jumped back to her feet and we talked for about a minute until she passed out. I caught her and when Sasori came up to me we saw a little bracelet-locket thing and opened it. We found a paper that had instructions to a summoning jutsu and it summoned up a case full of info on all of us, un." Deidara left out The Great Case-o-Poisons because it didn't really matter to Leader.
"Thank you, Deidara. Sasori, this is the girl, correct?" Sasori nodded his head once. "You may put her down now." Sasori laid the girl on the ground and Leader walked over to her. She stirred in her sleep and began to whimper and shake. The three Akatsuki men watched in interest. She panted heavily and began to thrash violently.
"No…don't do this…to yourself -something unintelligible-…san…" She woke with a jolt and hugged her knees to her body. "Never…sleeping…again…" She mumbled to herself. She hadn't even noticed that she was in the Akatsuki hideout, in extreme danger.
"Nice of you to join us." She looked up and saw an orange haired man.
"Um, hello?" She knew where she was now, and freaking out on the inside.
"How did you get all of the information on us?" The man asked.
"Years of spying, high-jacking files from other countries in my own time…Uh, interviews…" The man nodded his head. How had they over looked her? Never noticed her work?
"State your name."
"Arixious. If it's easier for you, Rix is fine."
"Okay, Rix, do you have a surname?"
"Yes, I do. My past is held in that name so, no, I do not want to share." The left over insomnia was kicking her in the gut again. She struggled to keep her eyes open. She then had an idea and quickly reached to her ninja pack and as she did that they all went into defense mode. She slowly pulled out five food pills and showed them to the Akatsuki men with an open hand. "I wasn't going to do anything stupid." Rix said as she popped the five pills in her mouth.
"You can't live forever on those things, un." Rix looked over to Deidara.
Hey, guess what? Shut the fuck up! "Yes, I'm aware." Rix answered calmly. Do you want me to pass out again?
"Rix," The said redhead turned back to the Akatsuki's leader. "We need that information." When Rix heard that she seemed crestfallen. She did the necessary hand seals and the case appeared. The leader searched through it.
"I'm missing a file, my friend was supposed to meet me today for it. The ninth member, I don't know who, though, that's why I needed it…" The orange haired man nodded his head and closed the case. Rix hugged her knees closer to herself and hid her face in the space between her legs and body.
Unbeknownst to her Sasori had asked his leader to give her a try in the organization and had been reasoning with him. The leader of the Akatsuki consented and actually agreed that she could be of some help, if not, they'd kill her. Easy as that.
"Rix," She looked back up to the man. "You are being given a chance in the Akatsuki." The man left his sentence hanging like that so Rix thought it was a 'yes or no' type of thing. Or maybe it wasn't…she decided just to nod, as in 'Yes, I understand.' or 'Yes, I accept.'. Rix nodded.
"Speak up." The man commanded.
"Yes, Sir." Rix said confidently. She heard a door click and snapped her head around to see nothing but a closed door.
"It was just the members that brought you here. Stand up." Rix complied.
"Members? I thought only the blonde took me here." The man shook his head.
"Never mind that. We will have a room ready for you by tomorrow morning, the latest."
"Thank you, Sir." The man turned around.
"You are dismissed. The door over there will lead you out into the hideout." He pointed to the door she just heard click. She made her way to the door and hoped that the blonde was still around so that he could help her around. She opened the door and she was lucky. Two men, one blonde, one redhead were still walking down the amazingly long hallway.
"Hey! Guys!" Rix shouted, trying to get their attention while running up to them. They stopped and turned around. She skidded to halt and faced Deidara, totally ignoring Sasori. Well, not really ignoring, but she wanted to sorta stick with Deidara for a while. "I never caught your name, I'm sorry."
He smiled. "I'm Deidara, un. Um…Ari-Arix…"
"Arixious, Rix is fine." Rix turned on her heels to face Sasori. "I was told you brought me here as well." Rix eyed the other redhead. "I'm Rix, your name is…?"
"Sasori." Rix's breath hitched. She had this weird feeling but brushed it off. She let out a breath she didn't know she had held.
