There weren't many people in the atrium. Nami spotted the scythe man talking to a person with a black mask covering his mouth and nose. She had never seen him before. His eyes seemed to have a silver shine to them. They would have been pretty if it weren't for the fact that he didn't have pupils. He wore an anti-waterfall village headband on top of a white hood that covered the top of his head. The Akatsuki cloak covered up his body pretty well, so Nami couldn't see anything else to describe him with… until Hidan made him mad. Out from under his cloak, these strange black tentacles wrapped themselves around Hidan and lifted him about two feet of the ground. The man raised his arm and more ejected themselves. The tentacles strangled Hidan. Although anyone who was watching would think that was painful, Hidan started laughing.

"Ha! You can't kill me, Kakuzu! Jashin-sama has given me the power of immortality!"

"So, Kakuzu is that guy's name." Nami said quietly to herself. Kakuzu relinquished his grip and let Hidan fall. Nami watched Kakuzu left. Fortunately for her, he didn't notice her there. But someone else did. Nami felt a cold, wooden hand hit the back of her neck… and that was all she felt.

Nami lifted her head up and looked around. There was something pulling on her arms, they were metal chains. Two metal latches kept her ankles on the wall. The room was dark, except for a few candles that were on small shelves against the walls. Footsteps approached her. One of the people was Sasori but the other Nami didn't recognize. From what she could see in the dark, he had long black hair and seemed emotionless. His eyes stood out the most. They were a deep red. When Nami looked at them, she noticed that they were slightly hypnotic. She was snapped back into reality by Sasori's voice," How did you get out of your room?"

"The door opened." she explained. Sasori exhaled sharply," Of course the door opened, that's how you get out!"

"No! The door opened by itself!"

"Door's don't open magically by themselves!" he yelled.

"We can use magic, but doors can't? I think that's a little unfair, don't you?!" Sasori sighed and put his head in his hands," Itachi, take care of her. Would you?" Itachi… this was it. Nami was paralyzed with fear. She wasn't even sure if she was breathing. The dreaded Itachi stepped forward and looked at her in the eyes. Everything went dark.

"Shit…" Nami sighed to herself. Nothing seemed to change except for Sasori disappearing. For some reason she felt somewhat tired. She looked at Itachi," So… what's gonna happen?" He returned her gaze with emotionless eyes," Your worst nightmare." he snapped his fingers and a high pitched screeching followed. It was completely unbearable. After a few seconds, blood started running down her jaw. It was coming from her ears. The noise was breaking her eardrums little by little. Itachi snapped again and the noise stopped. Nami struggled to overcome the pain in her ears. She had never felt anything like this before. For the first time, Nami thought she might actually die.
