Third Person

"We have to do something about this kid," Pein said in his emotionless stat he belonged in so well and most of his team mates had their hands in their hair, wishing the new colour would just vanish under their touch.

"Right… I HAVE FUCKING GREEN HAIR!" Hidan growled and for once no one hit him about swearing as the child wasn't there.

"Indeed Hidan. But there is nothing we can do. She seems to know a lot about us and could be useful… though…" Pein started and looked around the room, face not changing until Konan butted in and he seemed to lighten lightly.

"I will not allow any of you to kill her," Konan spoke just a little louder than normal and she seemed to relax when Pein shook his head and speak words of how that will not be the case.

Then everything was stopped but Itachi as he hushed them all as his eyes seemed to glow a little more red then that had once before and he looked from the hideout and everyone followed his eyes before Hidan growled slightly, "WHOS THERE!"

"Hidan!" All the other members chorused at his loud yell before they seemed to of been attacked.


Kaori's POV.

I heard the thumps from down stairs and I scurried down the find the 10, even Zetsu, Duck taped the chairs all around the sitting room.

I looked at them all and found the source of the duck tape and I huffed with laughter, "I should have guessed when the room was turned Silver."

"KAORI! My sweetie!" I heard a familiar voice and I flinched slightly at her now laughter tone, "Why are you like that?"

"Fuck It," I muttered under my breath and I felt most of the Akatsuki had their eyes on me and I sighed, "Undo them, Mek."

"But…" I gave her a growl and she whined, "Fine!" Before she started untying them and cutting the duck tape from around their mouths. Before I saw it coming, Pein had the girl in his grips and she was crying in slight pain while swearing her little head off.

"Pein! Let her go!" I growled at him and he looked taken back by my sudden attitude toward him and he followed my orders now and let her go as I sighed and held my head. "Now… Meko… why are you here?"

"Looking for you!" she smiled and I growled at her and the Akatsuki stilled looked at me, Deidara and Itachi's stare digging into me more than the rest them. They were use to my childish act that they hadn't heard my growl… I thought it was vicious but after spending all this time with these members I learnt it wasn't nearly as bad as it took be.

"Well I didn't wanna be found," I huffed and looked at them all and sighed slightly, "Sorry, Guys. Ameko just barged in here and attacked you all."

Pein watched him and I tilted my head at him and sighed, "Meko… you suck." My defence had slipped. My temper had been lost. My young appearance vanishing with them. They now saw me how I was. Not young nor Helpless. Not weak nor vulnerable. I was me again.

"Aww! You didn't tell your new Criminals about yourself," She teased me and I stepped with a growl before I felt a hand on my arm as someone held me back. I still had to lift my head to him as I looked up into small blue eyes as the blonde didn't move.

I moved away from him though and looked at the rest of them, unbothered by Ameko anymore, "I thank you for taking me in and I will leave as you all wished me to from the start." I didn't care about any looks they gave me as I just looked at Ameko with eyes.

"If you return now they may not kill you…" She said with a laugh and I sighed simply and turned to walk away before being stopped and as I turned around to face a smile from the emotionless Pein and I nearly fell over.

His mouth twitched but he said nothing as I pulled from him and shook my shoulder of his grip, "Thank you again, Leader-Sama."

I spoke his name and turned and walked from the hideout, looking 18… not 6.


Ok… yes Kaori can change her appearance age. Ameko was only briefly met and in the next few chapter you will get a large description of her looks.

Also… I may be unable to post for a bit as My little Rat, Mariana, has give birth and her Sister, Ratatina is due in the next few days.

But here is a small update. The queen of Duck Tape has Arrived!
