"Itachi, you may enter." Leader's voice echoed through the hallway. The said man walked into the room and came back out only five minutes later.

"You, Rix, are going to be on Kakuzu's and Hidan's team." Rix smiled.

"That's great! So, I'll help you guys move the bed and things into the room, if you'd like…" Itachi shook his head.

"Well, we never had an extra bed in the first place…you'd have to share a bed with Kakuzu or Hidan." Rix nodded in understanding. This was an S-rank criminal organization for Christ's sake! Of course they wouldn't have a ton of extra stuff. "Are you hungry? You slept all day."

"Yeah, I'm a little hungry…" Itachi, for the first time, actually looked over Rix. She was tiny and did need more weight on her body.

"You need to eat more, you're so small." Rix looked down at her body.

"Yeah…" Rix shrugged.

"We're having dinner, you can talk to the other members at the table." Itachi said while walking ahead of Rix. She ended up sitting next to Kisame and Hidan at dinner.

"So, Rix, un, you have a good hit. Danna had to fix some cracks you made in his face, un." Deidara was the first to try to start a conversation.

"Brat! Shut your mo-" Sasori started.

"Deidara, maybe that wasn't a very good topic. I didn't mean to start anything but, I did anyways." Rix turned her head to Sasori. "I'm sorry, Sasori. I hope you forgive me." Sasori nodded his head once and Rix sighed. "Good. So, Itachi, you said that I will have training with everybody…when will that be?" Itachi was sitting directly across from Rix.

"Well, tomorrow would be best but it might not work out that way." Itachi's crimson eyes drifted to Deidara. "If Deidara would clean up the mess he made of the training grounds, it will be tomorrow."

"Hey! I did clea-" Sasori apparently kicked Deidara under the table.

"Brat, don't argue!" Sasori shouted.

"Danna! I wish you wouldn't shout in my ear, un." Deidara rubbed his ear. Rix shook her head and sighed.

Shut up! God! Do you have to be annoying? "Hey, guys? How about not shouting at the table?" Rix suggested.

"Thank you. Rix is right. Shut up." Kakuzu agreed and glared at Sasori and Deidara.

"Rix, would you mind not butting in?" Sasori asked sarcastically.

"Sasori, I was just trying to bring some peace for dinner."

"We don't need you here, you're just going to die the first mission anyways." Rix's heart clenched. There it was…the Sasori that left fifteen years ago…

"Fine, you can think that but you're wrong, I will not die on the first mission. I can take care of myself. How about learning kindness? Maybe?" Rix smirked but that soon faded when a kunai was whizzing through the air towards her. She felt herself being pulled to the side and hugged close.

"What the fuck was that for? She was just dishing some of what you give Blondie back to you! Back off, fucker!" Hidan yelled at Sasori. Rix's body was pushed up against Hidan's. He was fast. He had literally jerked her out of the way in an instant.

"Uh, Hidan? You can let go now…" Hidan did so "Sasori wasn't in the wrong, I was pushing him." Rix stated as she took a deep breath.

"No. Rix, he was in the wrong. He has no right whatsoever to attack you for pushing his buttons. Whatever happened when you were kids is in the past, but you will not be his punching bag." Rix smiled and nodded.

"Thank you, Hidan." Sasori stood from his chair.

"Screw this!" He shouted as he walked down the hall.

Screw yourself, puppet boy! Rix took the last bite of the boneless ribs Hidan made and stood up to wash her plate. Once she had finished she walked back over to the table. "So, Hidan, Kakuzu, since I'm going to be on your team…Itachi said…I'm going to have to share a room with you guys… Will that be a problem? If it is…I could sleep in the living room or something…" Kakuzu shook his head.

"Oi! We won't kick you out." Hidan smiled at her.

"We'll work out that stuff later." Kakuzu added. Rix nodded and eventually everyone moved to the living room and I sat on the floor, by myself, because the couch was full. Hidan soon popped a horror movie in the DVD player. Once the bloodshed and murder started Hidan and Rix busted out laughing while Kakuzu and Itachi remained stoic but Kisame yelped and covered his eyes at all of the 'scary' parts.

A woman just got thrown into a wood chipper and Rix watched the spray of blood, bones, and flesh shoot out of the machine. At this part even the two stoic people cringed and made a face of disgust and Rix laughed.

"HA! Did you see that? That was frickin' gnarly, man!" She laughed some more.

"That…was hilarious!" Hidan managed to get out between laughs. By this time in the movie Rix was lying on her stomach with her chin in her hands. The movie ended with sappiness and morning over dead people and she had fallen asleep during the ending. Kakuzu stood up to get the movie out of the DVD player and noticed Rix had fallen asleep.
