Sasori's POV
"I want to return to Lord Orochimaru." After Maro said those words,I froze. "But why?" Ino asked recovering from shock first. Maro sighed. "That's where I feel I belong. Don't take it personally. I just can't feel at home here." she replied. Konan stood up and walked over to Maro. We all expected her to glare Maro down so we were shocked when she placed her hands on Maro's shoulders. "Alright. If that's what you want." she said. Maro nodded. "It is." she declared. And like that it was set in stone.
Maro's POV
Pein walked me to Orochimaru's territory. I had expected him to dump me on Sasori or Hidan. "Pein-sama. Why did you insists on taking me here?" I asked. Pein glanced back at me and then he sat on a fallen tree. "Sit." he ordered. I obeyed sitting next to him. "Did anyone tell you about Ino?" he asked. I shook my head. "Ino is a Konoha ninja. She and Tsunade,the Hokage,made a bet. Ino won of course but along the way she met Deidara. The way Akatsuki was back then was horrible. But Ino came in and changed us for the better. And even though I knew that. I saw it. I was still cold to Ino before I even knew her. And I was cold to you. So I'm sorry Maro." Pein admitted. I smiled. "That's okay Pein-sama." I assured him. We both turned at the rustling behind us. Kabuto emerged from the bushes. "Hello Maro." he greeted. I turned to Pein. He sadly closed his eyes and looked away as I reached out,taking the hand Kabuto had extended. "Goodbye Pein." I whispered as Kabuto and I merged with the forest around us.
Regular POV
Orochimaru smiled as the once blonde now black haired girl stepped through the doorway. "Welcome back Maro." he said as Maro fell to her knee. "Did you get the information?" Orochimaru asked. Maro smiled a bit and held up a stack of cards. "Right here m'lord." she said. Orochimaru smiled again as he took the cards. "A sob story like yours can touch anyone's heart it seems." he laughed flipping over the first card and adding chakra. Konan's information stared back at him. "Good girl Maro. This will satisfy me. For now."
Sasori's POV
I looked out the window as Pein gave us our missions. "Wait. Didn't Konoha help us in our time of need?" I asked. "Yes. And now we need Kyuubi." Pein shot back. "Tch. I don't see why." Hidan mumbled. "Oh don't get soft on me." Pein ordered. He turned to Deidara and me. "You two will head to the Land of Wind and retrieve Shukaku. That should bring Kyuubi out of Konoha and then we won't have to attack them. Happy? Good. I'll get it all set up and we'll start preparations." Pein announced clapping his hands together. I stormed out of the office before anyone could stop me. "Donna!!" Deidara whined. I spun around angrily. "DON'T CALL ME THAT!!" I yelled. Deidara froze and I kept walking.
Maro's POV
I stared down at Akatsuki. Beside me Shinari sniffed. "Hard to believe Orochimaru actually made you live there for these last few weeks." she remarked. I shrugged. "It wasn't so bad." I admitted. "That's Maro for you. Always sticking up for losers." Tatski remarked. He and his brother Ario laughed. Shaking my head ,I sighed. "Just be ready." I ordered,waving my hand. All three vanished. Kimimaro came up behind me. "The screaming will start in a second." he whispered. And it did. First Ario and then Tatski. "Why did the girl not scream?" he asked. I swallowed a lump in my throat. "Because Shinari is too strong to scream. And too tough to cry." I replied,walking away.
Sasori's POV
"Who are you?" I asked the wolf dancing around me. She smiled. "I am in many ways Maro. And in other ways I am not. Just call me Naru." she replied. "Maro?" I asked. Naru nodded sitting across from me. "But I thought." "Information can be false. Or created. I assure you though I am 100% Jinchuuriki. Maro's body was altered to be what Orochimaru considered a suitable host." Naru put in. "Why are you telling me this?" I asked. Naru smiled. "Maro may need help now more than ever. She's decided to end Orochimaru's life and I can't convince her otherwise. Sasori help her." Naru ordered. "How long do I have?" I asked. "She will spend a month only earning his trust. I have convinced her to do that. I suggest you convince Pein to stop preparing to infultrate Suna and make him infultrate Orochimaru's territory." Naru said. She chuckled to herself for a minute as if remembering a private joke. "I'm sure if you merely mention this has something to do with Maro , he'll be won over." she said,starting to fade. I knew I was waking up. "Wait Naru!" I yelled. Naru's body faded but I heard her chuckle. "Sweet dream Sasori." she whispered fading at last.
