Hmm, almost fifty reviews already… I thank all of you readers. Reviews usually make me write faster by the way… (Hint) However, you people don't want to listen to my rambling; on with show.
…...
Sakura opened her eyes expecting the white ceiling of her room inside the Uchiha mansion. She, however, was stunned to silent panic when she found a pair of violet eyes bearing down on her own emerald pools.
"…!"
They we're gone however when the owner was violently thrown across the room and blond hair replaced them in her vision.
"You're awake!"
She found her waist captured by two strong arms and she begun to twitch.
"I thought you'd never wake up!"
She begun to hyperventilate as a blue-haired woman and an orange-haired male entered the room.
"I warned you against you're stupidity."
"What the hell are you doing to her?"
Before either of them could follow through with the obvious fury in their voices however, Deidara was sent flying by a sharp right hook. Sakura sat, trembling in fear and embarrassment, with her shaking fist still extended. This brought many different emotions to surface in the small space. Deidara was in pain, Hidan held amusement, Konan felt a surge of pride, and Pein felt both anger at her fear and satisfaction at her defending herself.
"Whe-Where am I?"
Konan was the first to speak, moving to the side of the bed.
"It's alright; no one here would hurt you…"
She visibly relaxed, slightly calming.
"Where am I?' She repeated, "Why am I here?"
"You saved someone in my organization; you were injured so you were brought here."
It was Pein that had answered stepping to the front of the slowly gathering group around her bed. He smiled down at her; it was laced with gentleness and something else she couldn't place.
"I'm afraid you cannot leave until we complete our mission, I'm terribly sorry, but until it is over we cannot risk it."
He paused and frowned as if remembering something unpleasant.
"Both you and my organization could be in danger if that snake of a man Orochimaru got a hold of you."
"You're going against Orochimaru?"
The man nodded distractedly.
'I may only be a monster, but I know that Orochimaru has to be stopped and I want….I want to…'
"I want to help."
Shock flooded his face for a moment before a sly smile slid in place.
"Welcome to the Akatsuki-"
He made a jester to her person, and after a moment she spoke.
"Sakura."
His smile grew and he moved in closer.
"Welcome to the Akatsuki, Sakura."
…...
They were shouting again. It was a small group, consisting of Sasuke, Neji, and Sasori. It was a recipe for disaster. Currently they were lost, and it was Sasuke's fault. That man could get lost in a paper bag. Sasori was sure his head would explode soon and if it wasn't for the fact that he was so damn curious about the pink-haired girl he would have already left.
Itachi and Madara were lucky bastards… They had sprinted ahead of the group leaving them behind to eat their dust. He regretted not going after them.
"You're a fucking idiot! Why in the hell did you go this way?"
"Nobody told you to follow me!"
"You said you knew where you were going!"
Sasori clenched his fists.
"Well, you're the moron who followed me!"
"You were leading us!"
"Well-"
That's when Sasori snapped.
"Shut up!"
He pointed at the suddenly startled, normally stoic, boys.
"Can neither of you remember why we're out here?"
He didn't give them a chance to answer.
"If you don't get it together I'm going to rip out your bones and replace them with wood!"
It was relatively silent after that.
…...
They were moving fast, they had covered plenty of ground and by now any normal person, shinobi or not, would have given up. They however, were Uchihas, and they were currently closing in.
'Hang on, Sakura.'
…...
That takes care of that. Itachi and Madara are closing in and Sakura has joined the Akatsuki! The main plot is being brought to light. Ooh, I'm writing it and I can't wait! Anyway, review. (I am writing longer chapters little by little.) Tah Tah
