The two of us walked around the library looking for Itachi. Kakuzu didn't seem to mind looking for him also. I didn't feel that comfortable around him, he had a cold aura coming from him. Just then I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned back to him.
"Is that who your looking for?" His hand moves slowly toward the second floor. Itachi was looking at each book on the shelves.
"Hai, thats him." In a flash (1) I was next to him.
"Come on Itachi, I found him." He made no response, turned, and calmly made his way down the stairs. He walked toward the dark skinned man and made a bow.
"Uchiha Itachi."
"Kakuzu." He returned the bow and we left the library.

Itachi and I placed our cloaks back on to show Kakuzu we were actual members. When we took breaks he told up what he did: Like killing bountys', getting info, and commiting murders. And each story ended with one word. Money. But beside his greediness he was definitly Akatsuki material. It had become dark and we stopped for a break and rested in a far clearing from neighboring villages.
We all watched the fire as it flickered and spat peices of burned wood. The silence and motionless event made me drowzy.
"Hey, you." I look up to see Kakuzu staring at me.
"What?" I was hoping he wasn't a gay also, at least toward me.
"I never got to hear your name."
"Hmmm? Oh It's-"
"He's Hoshigaki Kisame." Both our heads turned to the silent Uchiha. He stared sorrowfully into the fire. Kakuzu nodded and looked back at me.
"Well, its nice to meet you, Kisame." He stood up and walked toward a tree and fell asleep against it. I looked toward Itachi who was staring at me with his usual stare. But the only difference with it was a small blush across his face. He turned away from me then placed his head against the ground. I did the same.
Kakuzu was the first to wake apparently because me a Itachi were woken by him. Samehada was moving on my back slowly back and forth hungry for chakra. Itachi predicted we will be there in a few hours. I was hoping we would get there sooner though, my back ached from sleeping on the floor and eating the salted meat. Then I remembered the rice cakes and dumplings. Shuffling through my bag I found the bag and took them out to inspect them. They survived most of the journey, atleast the rice did. The dumplings didn't look to hot so I grabbed the rice cakes and placed the rest in my bag.
Only 5 remained. The Waterfall-Nin turned his head and stopped in his tracks. He sighs and reaches his hand toward me. I sigh also and throw him a rice cake. I turn to Itachi who gives me a cold glare than continues walking.
The three of us finally arrived at Base and directed Kakuzu to Leader's office. Kakuzu thanked us and walked in, which left me and Itachi standing in the hall way. He turned away and started walking back toward our room. I followed him until he slammed the door on my face. Falling on my ass I hear foot steps stop behind me.
"Well, well, well. It seems someone has their hands full." I turned around with my hand rubbing my nose. Orochimaru, Sasori's partner. He was a complete freak that needed to cut his hair.
"We dont really see eye to eye." I responed blankly. The sides of him mouth curled which always made my stomache churn. He took a step closer.
"If he were my partner..." He bent down to get closer to my ear. "I'd give him the right treatment." The snake pulled away and walked toward the kitchen. I watched him disapear around the corner with total disguist. I looked around to see if anyone heard the conversation and there Itachi was. Standing with the expression of pity.
(1) In a flash- You know when they teleport to there destinations...nvm. :D
OhNOES Orochimaru is now in the picture...ew.:(
