Disclaimer: Out of all the things I own,Naruto sadly isn't on the list.

The Nine Tailed Foxes Sister

Chapter Three: The Akatsuki

"So there's no plans today?" Konan asked when Kaname closed her locker.

"Nope. Lets go." She smiled. Kaname led the way as she walked in the halls. She was a fast walker and Kaname found herself walking quickly behind her to catch up. After countless turns here and there,Kaname realized that she hadn't been in that part of the school. Her classes were all convinently placed around the heart of the school. This was one of the outer parts of the school that she was going to now.

"Here we are." Konan said stoping in front of a door that read "No Students Allowed" in fading letters. The class number was covered with some kind of substance that made anyone who wanted to know what room it was change their mind in a heart beat. Konan took off her shoe and a key fell to the floor. She unlocked it and looked at Kaname.

"Don't worry,you'll get a key." She smirked. After opening the door and looking into the somewhat abandoned room,Kaname was somewhat nervous. Then she saw several people sitting down.

"Welcome to the Akatsuki."

"No gentle fist Neji!" Shikamaru shouted somewhere in the trees.

"No rules randomly in the middle of training." Sasuke said. Naruto stood in his spot out of breath and filled with cuts and bruises. He proclaimed himself tired and made a hand seal to make a shadow clone appear next to him.

"Play along with these guys. You can leave if they realize I'm gone which I highly doubt." He said leaving his shadow clone behind as he rushed down to the street. He purchased a bottle of iced tea and walked to a small park around his house. He was about to sit under a tree but he noticed a familiar person. Hinata was sitting by the pond and she had a notebook and pen in hand. Naruto crept over to her and put both hands on her shoulders.

"Hey Hinata!" He said making her jump. He noticed that she was kneeling by a family of ducks.

"Oh! Hi Naruto."

"I didn't mean to scare you." she disagreed with him by shaking her head no.

"So whacha doing?" he asked looking over her shoulder to the book.

"No." She said. He smiled.

"So that's how you roll." he said. He wound his arms around her waist and reached for the book. "Lemme seee".

"Naruto stop!" She said. He then began tickling her. She laughed. It was music to his ears. He loved laughter as much as he loved ramen.

"No."

"Okay okay!" she said giving up. He took the notebook and looked at the first page. He saw a carefully sketched out picture of his friend Neji. It was almost like he was standing next to him. The next one was the family of ducks. He looked up to Hinata who was looking at him curiously.

"I'm not so good..."

"Yeah, you're right. You're amazing." He said making her flush. "Is this a hobby?"

"Not really. I've been doing it for a little while."

"Yup that's a hobby. Ever thought about going pro?" he smiled.

"Once or twice." She said feeling comfortable around him.

"You should."

"I'll take it into consideration." she smiled. She looked around the pond aimlessly to see if she would find the family of ducks.

"So why you here?" Naruto asked handing her the notebook.

"Just getting some fresh air. You?"

"Waiting for time to pass. I live right over there." He said pointing to his building. Hinata looked over curiously.

"Kaname does all the cooking?"

"Crap. I have to get home." He said after slapping his palm to his face. He looked at the unopened bottle and tossed it to her. "Keep it."

"T-thanks." She smiled. He grinned once before jogging out of the park.

"Kaname. That's a nice name." Said dark haired Tobi. He had a dark pair of aviators on and a smile that lit up the room.

"Don't mind him. Hes like a little kid." Konan said while she filed her nails.

"Thank you Tobi. What are your names?" Kaname asked the two other members. The one with spiky blue hair looked up.

"I'm Kisame. Thats Itachi Uchia." he said pointing to the other boy who seemed to be in his own thoughts.

"Uchia? So your brother is Sasuke?" Kaname asked remembering Narutos friend.

"Yeah. Naruto's your brother right?" He asked. She nodded once.

"I love my bro."

"Okay,lets give her a decent introduction at least people." Konan said making everyone shit their attention to her. "Here are some of the most...peculiar people you will probably ever meet in this school. We are unique and as cliche as it may sound, different isn't good with most people."

"So here, we come to just talk and and hang. Oh! And we bring snacks!!" Said Tobi.

"But...this is a pretty small group." Kaname said hearing her voice echo in the room.

"We had others. But they graduated a year before us." Kisame said almost unsure.

"Aw, they were probably cool people."

"We have another member that's in his senior year with us. But he had to go work today. Which reminds me that work is out topic today." Kaname said looking over to Itachi for it was his turn to speak.

"So work...do you have a job Kaname?" he asked as unenthusiastic as possible.

"No, I should get one though."

"Theres an opening at the restaurant i work at. You can be a waitress there if you want." Kisame insisted. Kaname thought this was great for her seeing that her missions so far don't grant her much cash.

The rest of the afternoon was filled with laughs, smiles, and a new job. Kaname felt as though she found some decent people to call friends. When she got home she found Naruto lounging on the couch with his friends. There were several empty pizza boxes and soda cans all over.

"Busted." Neji laughed. Naruto stood up and dusted himself off.

"Sorry about the mess sis. We can pick it up if you want. It's just that Shikamaru wanted to try some of your food so I said yeah but we were sitting in here for ever and then-"

"That's okay. You can pick up if you want. I'm beat. Sasuke,I met your brother today." Kaname said. Sasuke coughed on his soda then looked at her in bewilderment.

"Where?"

"At the Green Toad Coffee Shop. I got a job there today." She smiled. Naruto punched his fist in the air.

"Alright we're taking in some cash soon!"

"Idiot. Lets just pick up the mess and we'll head out." Shikamaru said picking up a half eated pizza crust. Kaname took a shower and went to say goodbye to her brother friends when she ran into Shikamaru on her way to the kitchen.

"Oh, hey Shikamaru." she smiled. His eyes went wide and he coughed.

"Hey."

"So you wanted some of my food?"

"No. Naruto was just lying. Heat of the moment I guess."

"Okay. If you want some anytime just let me know okay?"

"Whatever." He said. She pouted,she almost felt insulted.

"Nara! You better not be making out with my sister or I'll shove a knife up your ass!" Shikamaru looked at her once before nodding a silent goodbye.

"See ya." Kaname said walking over to the now clean couch. After the door shut Naruto jumped to the open space next to her.

"You have a thing for Nara?!" he asked. She laughed.

"Hell no. He's so rude,no girl will ever want him."

"Okay...just thinking of my friends dating my sister is plain weird."

In the dark cave sat a group of people. In the middle of them sat a person in a massive chair.

"So you spoke to her today?" The person on the seat asked darkly.

"Yes, but she didn't say much about him." Itachi said.

"You all know we need as much imformation as possible right?"

"Yessir." Everyone said at once.

"Good. We need the help of the Nine-Tailed-Foxes sister to eliminate him." he said.
