Naruto and Characters belong to Masashi Kishimoto (I didnt realised I wasn't doing this on every chapter.)

The next morning I was plagued with the feeling of emptiness but I thought it was because I'm hungry. It was more than that. Itachi had left some time ago, probably went to get something to eat. And knowing what happened yeterday, I have a feeling he wont bring me something back.

So I heaved my heavy body up and grabbed some clothes then walked into the bathroom. When I had finished up I heard Itachi had returned to the apartment and hesistated when reaching the door knob. The door swung open and Itachi didnt even look up from his food to see who it was. He concentrated on his dango and rice. Looking for something else to stare at I notice it was 6:45. We would have to leave in 30 minutes. So I grabbed my sandals and walked out the door.

My stomache whimpered as I walked through each street looking for a store that was opened. Ramen didn't seem great today so I found a rice cake shop and ordered a dozen of dumplings and rice cakes. Not the greatest breakfast but it would have to do. I decided to walk around town and see what else there was than restraurants. It had little to offer so I started for the hotel. But I stopped in my tracks to see ANBU searching the area for any wanted criminals. I stuffed what was left of my food in my bag and swiftly fell into a bookstore. The old owner graffawled at my action and welcomed me in.

Looking out the window I saw the ANBU making there way toward the row of stores. So I bowwed to the old man and began to look around. There were some diaries, cook books, calanders, cards and so on. But what caught my attention were the romance books. They had "Are you in love?" shit, and "Show your affection". I scoffed at the books and thought of Itachi. My face began to turn a light purple from the thought. The old man walked up beside me looked where I was staring and nudged me with a synister smile. I turned at him with a curious look then looked at where he was looking. P0rn. My face lit up and I assured him I was thinking about something else. I grabbed the two love bookes ( "Are you in love?" and "Show your affection".) The owner nodded and I paid for the two items. Walking out I realized that the books were a bright pink with hearts and girly crap all over it. I wasn't sure if I got the wrong gender one or if it was trying to make me look gay. But none the less I had to know if I was.

The ANBU were no where in sight and started for the hotel. When I reached our room Itachi had left but he left a note.

Kisame

Get your ass in gear and meet me at the gates.

Itachi

-Sigh- So I quickly grabbed Samehada and the note and dashed out the door. I could see Itachi already there looking from the gates into the forest. When I finally got to him he jumped from his place into the trees.

The trek to Takigakure was painfully quiet. Itachi didn't even bother to help me when there was an enemy nin stopping me from going on. But when we got there, we both saw how bigger it was from our last village. It of course wasn't as big as Konoha so we didn't have trouble finding the Library. We entered the building to find it 2 stories. So the two of us split up.

The small chattering of voices, echoing through the halls and book cases was starting to get on my nerves and fastened my pace. There was so many aisles to go through. I wasn;t sure if the Nin knew I was Akatsuki. (Since we didn't wear the cloaks around public that much) But as I was looking through the Industry (Money) aisle I saw a shady man wear the cloak.

He was a little bit taller than me, had dark skin. I couldn't help but notice that his hand was marked with stitches. And he must have heard my appearance and turned to look at me. His eyes were an emerald green. I showed him the back of my hand to have a better look of my ring.

"You must be the Nin, Pein sent." His voice was cold and of course suited his appearance. He placed the book where he probably found and made his way toward me. I grinned at him.

"Nice to meet you too, Kakuzu."

YAY! Hope you like I already wrote up to chapter 18. So, please R&R
