A/N: Yo people. It's been a little over half a year isn't it? Am in the midst of having examination. Though Deidara's birthday is tomorrow so I'll update as promised! Well, if my writing style changed… Meh, it's probably life.

Disclaimer: Kouga Ogen was modelled after Yashamaru from Basilisk.

Tsuki's POV

The mission was accomplished, and all that's left was a job for Deidara. "Get away, up into the sky." Simultaneously, all of us disappeared. Glancing down from my bird's eye view, all I could see was corpse and dilapidated buildings.

Smirking, the ninja from Iwagakure dropped off a doll-shaped bomb.

It was all bright, and the village was no more. From then on, Iwagakure disappeared off the map of the Country of Fire. No doubt the country will be in chaos. Turning away, we head back to the hideout.

(Akatsuki Lair, Pein's office)

"No survivors?" "Nah, all of them went up in a bang, un." Pein waved his hand, and there goes the signal for dismissal. The day after today, Akatsuki will be even more infamous than ever…

The water ran down my body, as I thought about the previous action of Itachi's.

Dawn broke, and I was up. The kitchen seems tempting, and I did what my mind wanted. Upon arrival, Sasori was there on a chair. It was more confidential, but I was on equal terms with Sasori as with Deidara. "Tsuki," I stared. "What's the matter?" The puppet master inquired quietly, most probably sensing my distress.

"…It's probably nothing. Just my imagination." Just as I turn to reach for a cup, Sasori grabbed my shoulder. On instinct, I swept his hand off and got into a defensive position. "Ah," He lifted his cup, "It's the weasel, isn't it?"

"… Hn." Grabbing my cup, I filled it with water. "Silence means consent." I had a feeling he was smirking behind my back, and resisted the urge to affirm my doubt. "He said something to you?" I frowned, and I could feel him getting closer due to his chakra spike. Was he… angry? I turned to him, and asked in a monotonous tone. "Are you angry?"

He just smiled, and unzipped his jacket. My frown deepened, first Itachi, now him? Damn males, do they not know what sexual harassment is? However, the redhead caught me off guard when he slid his jacket off his shoulders.

"You… Sasori," my widen eyes moved towards his face; he was still smiling. "A puppet feels nothing, my dear Tsuki-hime." Closing my eyes due to that mocking remark, I glared at him. "You still have a heart, don't you?" I exerted enough force to break the cup that I held in my hand, successfully giving myself a bloodied palm. When I was about to swarm back to my room, he caught my shoulder with his strong hand. This time, even though my instinct kicked in, I subdued it with all my might.

Turning my head to the side, I caught a glimpse of Sasori's hair, and soon my actions were constricted.

Narrative

Sasori hugged Tsuki from the back, and held her left wrist with his left hand, and right hand in his right. Gently flipping her hand that was painted in red upwards, he raised it to his lips and licked the blood off. Tsuki stiffened, and tried to break free from his grasp. However, she was reminded of the fact that males are physically stronger than females due to the unfairness of the world; Sasori's grip on her other arm was firm but gentle.

The girl could only lower her head in embarrassment and wait for it to be over. No one had ever been so gentle with her before. In her life, everyone was rough towards her. Even her first kiss was taken from her forcefully! She will allow herself this happiness, just once.

After his ministrations stopped and he was sure that she won't struggle, he let go of her hands and hugged her like a protective lover – Hands over the shoulder and waist. "Thank you." He mumbled, burying his face in her shoulder. "If you need someone, I'll be here."

"I will need you to eliminate an enemy. It seems that he's going around gathering information of Akatsuki, eliminate him and bring him back to Kakuzu." Tsuki bowed, and once again prepare to carry out the mission.

'Kouga Ogen… The Black Restrictor. This battle will be slightly tougher than usual.' With the blink of an eye, she disappeared from her spot.

She had reached the village an hour later. Though it didn't seem like a village, as the entrance was hidden from naked eyes. In the entrance's place stood a magnificent waterfall. Suddenly, Tsuki moved her head to the side. There was a low whistle and the kunai that whizzed through the air – barely missing her head - embedded itself into the tree behind her.

Tsuki narrowed her eyes, "Come out." A few ANBUs appeared in front of her, all in a fighting stance. "What does an Akatsuki want with us?" The woman merely glanced at them, and deciding against killing uninvolved people, spoke. "Hand over Kouga Ogen." The ANBUs bared weapons, and attacked in an instant.

"So the answer is no, huh?" Dodging left and right, she withdrew her katanas, and slashed through the air. Within one minute, all the ANBUs lay dead at her feet, except for one.

"Where, is Kouga Ogen?" The ANBU shuddered, but remained silent. Raising her red katana, she brought it down.

"Stop." A male appeared from within the waterfall, "Let him go. I'm the one you're looking for, right?" The katana stopped a hair's breadth from the ANBU's chest, and was lowered. The ANBU immediately disappeared, presumably to report to their leader.

The man stood his ground. Taking a few shurikens, she threw it in his directions. He extended his hand, and the wires wrapped around his wrist sprung out and the shurikens were deflected.

'Kekkai genkai: dokushinjutsu.' She used her ability, trying to read his next step. His mind was calm, and all his thoughts were to kill his enemy to survive. Tsuki, realizing that could not gain any information from him, released the concentration. He ran towards the Akatsuki who did a back flip, and tried to slit him with her katana. Blocking with his arms covered in wire, no damage were inflicted.

Leaping up into the air, the Black Restrictor unleashed a school of wires, successfully wrapping around Tsuki's ankle, dragging her towards the ground. Immediately sensing the hostility, Tsuki grabbed her sash that was wrapped around her torso and tangled one end to the nearby tree and held onto the other end.

The woman was suspended in air by her left ankle and right hand. Glancing at her bleeding ankle, the beauty came to the conclusion that the hair was made of women's hair coated in beast oil. Sheathing her blue katana, she used her left hand to use a fire technique, followed by water technique: Spiral Wave. With a thug of her leg, the wire snapped, and Tsuki swung towards the tree, and perched on a branch.

Kouga attacked, and his wind blades cut the tree, and Tsuki disappeared. However, the crescent boomerang that Tsuki had thrown at the last moment caught his left ear by surprise, and blood was spilled. She appeared behind him, the katana aimed towards his right side, which he blocked. Lifting her left hand, she used the blue katana to attack him, which he jumped out of the way. Once again catching him by surprise, the boomerang plunged itself deep into his shoulder.

Without a word, the man was caught in a tornado of water, and laid on the ground several moments later. Bringing her blade down, Kouga Ogen was no more.

By giving him a quick death, was Tsuki's own way of paying him respect for being a worthy opponent.

However, the fight had taken long, and the reinforcement that the escaped ANBU had gathered appeared. Deciding that the fight have to continue for a while longer before she can return, she unsheathe her katanas again.

-Page Break-

It was around 6 in the evening when the lone Akatsuki got back to the base, with red spots covering her coat and hair.

After reporting, she took a shower.

Tsuki's POV

My senses are tingling, though I wonder why. My body was telling me that something will happen soon. As I turned off the water and grabbed the towel by the rack, my instinct flared and I covered myself with the towel, preparing for whatever was about to come. In a millisecond, I was pinned against the wall, my arms restricted and brought above my head.

Meeting red eyes, I stopped breathing.

Just what the hell is Itachi doing here?! Then again, this is convenient for me – Minus the fact that I'm in the most vulnerable position a woman can be in – for I wanted to speak to him about the incident. "What is it?" Hm. I'm glad my voice didn't falter, since his eyes were bearing into my soul, making me supremely uncomfortable.

"You asked 'why' then." I narrowed my eyes, but didn't say anything. "You are a strong woman, and I need you to bear my children."

"Hn. At least you're honest." Red met red, and I stared into his eyes intensely in order to convey my message that I didn't like his idea at all, and that I am not intimidated by this man.

I didn't even have time to register before he made his move. I could feel his breath on my ear as he whispered, "Though, as a woman, you're not bad too." His hands moved.

Now, with his left hand restraining both my wrist over my head, his right hand did quick work and the towel that I had on was on the ground pooling around my feet.

Narrative

Itachi caught her luscious lips with his own again, and his right hand roamed her body. The Amemiya struggled; unexpectedly head butting him, hard. Itachi stopped and moved away, while the woman covered herself with the towel once again and teleported out of the bathroom, since Itachi was blocking the way out.

Itachi sighed, and teleported back to his own room

No longer sensing his chakra, Tsuki put on her clothes and slipped under her comforter, still pissed at Itachi for pulling that act.

'To be honest… After Itachi had kissed me for the first time, I had felt a spark in me. Maybe I had grown to like him as a person after our multiple missions. Shit.' She cussed, a very rare action from the young lady.

She was emotionally tormented, since Itachi had professed his interest in her, while the artistic duo had mentioned that they will be there for her. She held different kind of emotions for each of them. The blunt and mysterious Itachi; The calm and understanding Sasori; The helpful and considerate Deidara.

All three of them were so different, yet so similar. Though, that's not the main problem now. She had a personal matter to settle. She had to find her sister, Amemiya Yume.

A/N: I know this is very short compared to the others, it's 2200+ words off. So sorry.
