-Akatsuki Hideout-

"What the fuck did she say?" Hidan gasped as Kisame told everyone except Pein and Konan who were talking to Chii and Samuru at the moment. "That little bitch! She'd rather be killed gruesomely than be offered to Jashin?"

"Keep your voice down, your hurting my head," Deidera whined as he played with his clay.

"Go play with your dolls in another room, bitch!" Hidan snapped.

"Be nice to Dei!" Tobi whined. "Tobi is good boy."

"Yes, Tobi is god boy, now go get me some fucking water!" Kakazu snapped.

"Wahh!" Tobi cried and dashed out of the room.

"You didn't have to be so mean," Deidera sighed and walked out after Tobi.

"Back to the matter at hand, the Abare siblings," Hidan snapped.

"They are just children who were desperate for food and a place to stay," Kisame muttered. "She had a valid point on that. If it were me, I would have let them go after wiping out all memories of Akatsuki if they thought they were ready to try being on their own again."

"But it's not up to you, Kisame. Its as if you actually care about the fucking brat," Hidan smirked.

"Don't even start accusing others until you confess what you are accusing others of," Kisame snapped.

"You are such a mother-fucking brain dead piece of shit corps!" Chii's voice echoed through the hideout.

"Guess she isn't getting what she wants," Deidera smirked as he came back into the room.

"Where's your fucking partner?" Hidan growled.

"He was sleep..."

A scream echoed through the tunnels as well as the sound of a whip meeting flesh.

"And there's the music," Itachi spoke then left the room.

"Chi-chi is getting hurt!" Tobi cried as he came into the room. "Tobi good boy..."

"Tobi shut up!" several people snapped and Tobi crawled into a corner and whimpered as Deidera handed him a handful of clay to entertain himself with.

Samuru came into the room and his face gave nothing away. He ignored everyone as he got a glass of water and disappeared from the room as the screams died down. The Akatsuki members looked at each other for several minutes before deciding to head to their rooms before anymore fighting and screams occurred.


-With Sand Siblings and Hyuuga Cousins-

"It's just a mountain, how could those two be inside it?" Kankuro whined as the sat down and rested near where the trail practically ended.

"Hyuugas, what do you thing?" Gaara asked.

"Secret entrance," Neji spoke calmly. "There are 11 chakra flows in there, nine of them are strong while the other two are weaker. One chakra flow is moving as if the person is critically injured."

"How would we get in?" Temari asked.

"Two flows are headed towards where your sand had stopped," Hinata whispered and everyone jumped into the trees.

Part of the mountain shifted and two Akatsuki cloaked members came out. Gaara acted quickly and lined the cave entrance with his sand so that it didn't close all the way but seemed closed to others.

"That fucking bitch hurt my ears with her screaming," one whined as they walked closer to the trees.

"That's what you get when you get some indecisive teenager arguing with leader," the other spoke.

"Damn, why wont Chii let me sacrifice her beautiful body?"

"Cause she would castrate you before you got close enough to touch her."

"I feel fucking bad for the bitch's brother, watching her get punished for asking to leave Akatsuki."

"So you do care," the taller one snorted.

"We've watched over them for two years. Kisame has a point, they joined out of desperation to live, not to be looked at like evil like the nations act," the one with the scythe mutters then they were out of hearing.

"Well then..." Kankuro sighed. "The Abare are Akatsuki, time to head home..."

"H-he mentioned that she asked to leave the organization," Hinata stammered poking her fingers.

"Wonder how Akatsuki punishes someone." Neji frowned slightly at Temari's comment. "What...? Tsunade said she had been tortured before, I am slightly concerned."

"We're going in," Gaara growled.

"You should wait for them to fall asleep," Neji spoke. "Five are still awake, including the two weaker. Those two are together everyone else are all separate."

Gaara internally visualized strangling Neji and his 'I'm-better-than-everyone-so-I-get-to-be-in-charge' attitude but knew that it would be better to go in when there were the least alert personnel. Gaara got his frustration out by just imagining the ways to kill the older Hyuuga instead of pacing or actually attacking him. When Neji gave the go, Gaara used his sand to open the entrance then he, Neji and Temari snuck into the hide out towards the two weak chakra flows.

"Damn it Chii, why didn't you retaliate," a male growled when the three got past five closed doors.

"He would have won using his Rinnegan and I would have been killed on the spot," a female whispered weakly then coughed. "Samuru, it's fine..."

"No it's not Chikia! You could have died from the extent of these wounds!" the male snapped.

"Haven't heard you say that name in a while," Chii muttered.

Gaara opened the door silently and looked into the room. A man was kneeling in front of a bed with his back to the door and he saw Chii's emerald eyes staring at her brother. Her eyes moved and locked onto Gaara's teal ones and she gasped quietly. Her brother spun around with a kunai in hand then froze.

"What are you doing here?" Chii whispered and Gaara could now see the extent of her damage. Her whole torso was bandaged and several lines of blood were visible as it seeped through the white gauze.

"We came to figure out who you two really are," Gaara spoke quietly. "We heard from two Akatsuki who are leaving that you are injured because you asked to leave the Akatsuki, is this true?"

"So what if it is? It is no concern of shinobi who's people once hurt and tried to kill us," Samuru growled.

"Samuru..." Chii frowned. "We only came into the organization because we were starved and had no place to go. Going to Suna was our first and only mission and it was just intel on your bond with the Kyuubi host. I never wanted to be considered a criminal or a bad person."

"We should get them out of here Lord Gaara," Neji whispered. "The girl needs healing fast then we can interrogate them in Konoha."

"Alright," Gaara whispered and the man before us hurried to the closet and pulled out a bag and grabbed cloths and weapons and shoved them into it as Gaara used his sand to put pressure on Chii's wounds and pulled her into his arms. "Let's go before someone wakes up."

"Too late..." Neji muttered as he peeked out of the room. "Someone in an orange mask."

"Samuru, you know how to deal with Tobi," Chii whispered then started coughing, making Gaara shake with the strength of her coughs.

"Muru, is Chi-chi alright? Tobi good boy so why did she get hurt?" a whinny voice spoke and Gaara saw Chii smirk.

"Tobi is a good boy and she will get better," Samuru spoke coldly. "Go back to bed before Samuru gets angry!"

"The poor thing, he always acts like a child," Chii whispered weakly. "He'll listen to Samuru, get out while you can."

Gaara dashed out with Neji and Temari on his heels and they dashed quietly to the entrance. They saw Hinata and Kankuro in the tree line. As soon as they hit the trees, they all started running towards Konoha until Chii started spasming in Gaara's arms.

"Her wounds are worse than you would think," Samuru muttered as Gaara laid her on the ground and pinned her limbs so she wouldn't hurt herself. "Have the girls stay but you males leave the clearing."

"What about you?" Kankuro growled.

"I am the only one who can heal my sister properly," Samuru snapped and Gaara used his sand to push the boys out of the clearing and off a ways.

"Why did she get hurt?" Temari asked as he started to unbandage her torso.

"She defied Leader with practically begging him to let us leave. He told her to stop but she didn't so he pulled out a whip," Samuru muttered as he held his hands inches from her burning skin and let his chakra flow over her. "Damn it, she is already running a high fever from infection."

"Is there anyway to speed the healing?" Hinata stammered as she poked her fingers.

"If I had more chakra yes, but I'm already running low from healing her before."

"What about using chakra from other people," Temari asked, understanding what the blushing hyuuga was implying. "Naruto Uzamaki did that to help bring Gaara back after your people killed him..."

"We were not in the organization when the Shukaku was extracted!" Chii snapped but then started coughing and her back arched in pain.

"Chii shut your damn mouth before you cough up a lung or something. I believe that could work but I'm not sure how to do it..."

"I remember Lady Chiyo saying something about it," the voice of Neji came into the clearing. "She just had Naruto place his hands on top of hers and direct his chakra into her hands and she was able to do the rest. If you are going to do such thing with those wounds then two other chakra sources will not be sufficient to fully heal her."

"What are you doing in the clearing?" Temari snapped as Hinata placed her hands on top of his and Temari did the same.

"Her dignity is covered so there's no point in running off to far," Neji spoke pompously. "The sooner she is healed, the sooner we can do interrogations."

"If your going to help then help, but don't just stand there acting arrogant!" Samuru snapped and he came into view and knelt to his right and placed his hands on top of Temari's.

Gaara and Kankuro came into view and Kankuro came over to Samuru's left and added his hands to the stack. Gaara stayed near the trees and watched her wounds nit up and leave barely a trace of there ever being a scar. Soon Samuru pulled back, breathing hard and sat on his butt next to Chii. If anyone paid attention, they could see him shaking from the exertion.

"H-here," Hinata stammered and handed him her water flask. "She is healed, right?"

"Yes, now it's all up to her to heal her mental self from the punishment," Samuru sighed as Gaara came over and covered her before pulling her into his arms again.

"Let's get going, I don't want to be anywhere near the hideout if those two come back," Gaara snapped and everyone stood except Samuru. "You want to be caught or do you really wish an escape from the Akatsuki?"

"I can't..." Hinata came to him and slung one of his arms over her shoulder and pulled him to his feet. "Thanks..."

"Let's get out of here," Neji spoke quickly and everyone dashed into the trees.
