Chapter 3

Hinata blinked and stared at the young Uchiha in disbelief. Hinata had always despised the younger Uchiha. Sure, she'd never admit it since she didn't have the heart to tell someone that she hated them but Sasuke truly made Hinata sick to her stomach. He always thought that he could get everything he wanted, including girl's. Of course, Hinata had never been wanted by Sasuke because of her shy, dorky appearance but now that her appearance has changed completely and the Uchiha wanted her… She had the upper hand in this "Battle" And she would surely get back at him.

"Belongs to you? I don't think so, Uchiha, un!"

Hidan and Deidara glared darkly at the Young Uchiha while Hinata's mind began to build her devious attitude slowly. Smiling innocently, Hinata leaned over to Tobi and whispered something into his ear. At first, Tobi was surprised that the Shy Hyuuga wanted her to do this sort of thing but once Hinata told her reason, he understood completely. Tobi quickly whispered something into Deidara and Hidan's ear. Both boy's looked over to Hinata and she smiled innocently at them. They both smirked and shrugged while Tobi picked her. At first Hinata was a bit doubtful of this idea but she pushed her thoughts away and let the three boy's carry on.

"Sorry but Hina-chan belongs to the Akatsuki now," Hidan smirked, looking over to Sasuke. Deidara quickly moved beside Tobi and cupped Hinata's face, slowly moving forward and planting a sweet tender kiss on her lips. At first, Hinata blushed red, realizing that her first kiss was taken by Deidara but when she saw Sasuke's face… It pleased her completely.

Sasuke's eyes narrowed as he glared at Deidara who had been the one to take Hinata's first kiss. Sasuke wanted to be the one to take her first kiss! Well he decided that when he saw Hinata's first appearance and he also knew that little Hinata didn't have the guts to kiss any boy; but maybe she changed during the time that they haven't seen each other… Maybe Hinata was finally learning to be a tease with her wonderful body. Right when Sasuke was about to lunge forward, the bell rang, signaling that the students needed to be in class. Sasuke had gotten numerous detentions but this time, he couldn't get another one.

"Go on, Sasuke-kun~ Don't want another detention for being late," Hidan remarked, having a pleased grin. Honestly, Hidan wanted to be the one to have Hinata's lips against his but Deidara got there first… Made him a bit envious of Deidara… Surprising on how he could possibly feel that way. Deidara slowly pulled his lips away, making Hinata feeling a bit sad about her lips now being lonely. During the kiss, Hinata had felt like she was melting away… She also felt the warmth and happiness of the kiss… What a wonderful feeling…

"You lips are Delicious, Hina-hime. Were you wearing… Vanilla lip gloss…?

Hinata face blushed a darker red when she saw Deidara licking his lips. Deidara chuckled warmly as Hidan sighed and swung his arm around Hinata's shoulder, replying, "No more kissing for you two… And apparently… We're gonna have to get you into the Akatsuki in order for Sasuke to believe you…"

Hinata had obviously already found out that Hidan, Tobi, and Deidara were member's of the Akatsuki. Hinata may be shy and unconfident of herself but she is surely not stupid. That made it even better for Hinata. The Akatsuki could teach her how to properly be tough and she already had friends that were part of the group. The only thing that she needed to do was to be friends with the rest of the group. Wouldn't be too hard… Right?

"Ok then… Well, we should get to class before we get yelled at… again."

Hinata's face fell when she realized that she would be late… For the first time in her entire life. Quickly, Hinata took out her schedule and quickly checked for what she had for second period. Language Arts with Yuuhi Kurenai. Hinata looked around hurriedly, seeing if the class had hopefully been down the hallway they were in at the moment. Hidan took the time to peer over Hinata's shoulder and saw her next class. Smiling, Hidan picked her up, looking at Deidara and Tobi.

"Her next class is with me so I'll be taking her. Go on and check with Pein and Konan about Hinata joining the Akatsuki."

With that, Hidan ran down the hallway with a blushing Hinata in his arms. Deidara was about to protest but kept his mouth shut and walked with the loud Tobi down a hallway. Hidan stopped in front of a classroom and pulled it open, walking inside with the uncomfortable Hyuuga in his arms.

"Oh? You finally decided to join us, Hidan-kun? And who is this…? Another trouble maker?"

Kurenai studied Hinata's red face as Hidan shook his head and let Hinata onto the floor. Again, another classes attention was directed to Hinata but she was able to see her best friend, Temari, sitting in the back with a shocked expression.

"No, No… Hina-chan isn't anything like me… I just happened to pick her up when she was looking around for this class… right Hina-chan?"

Hidan looked over to Hinata and she nodded quickly. Kurenai sighed, thinking that Hidan had threatened Hinata or something because of her nervous behavior. Hinata gulped a bit and Kurenai looked at both Hidan and Hinata. "Hidan, Go on and sit down. Hina-chan, why don't you introduce yourself?"

Hinata nodded and introduced herself like she did in the previous class. Once she was finished, Kurenai let her sit wherever she liked. She looked up and noticed that Hidan had sat on the left side of the room while Temari sat on the right side. Hinata wanted to sit next to both of them but she noticed the dirty looks the two were sending each other. Not wanting to choose between the two, Hinata sat in the middle of the room in the back, by herself. Temari and Hidan were both shocked and sad about Hinata not sitting next to them.

"Alright then… Class, We'll be doing group work so find yourself two other buddies to work with. Write a two paged report on some articles that you find inside the Newspaper."

As the chairs around the classroom began to shuffle, Hinata went to the front and took out about two Newspaper's. Hinata turned over to see both Temari and Hidan walking toward her. They eyed each other suspiciously as Temari called over to her, "Oi, Hina-chan! You doing the work again?"

Hinata nodded as Hidan pushed himself between the two, looping an arm around Hinata. "So…? Your friends with this bitch, Hinata-chan?" Temari grit her teeth, glaring darkly as Hinata frowned at Hidan.

"That's n-not nice, H-Hidan-san… T-Temari-chan h-has always's t-taken c-c-care of me…"

Hidan's magenta eyes traveled over to Temari, staring at her boredly. Of course, Hidan didn't believe Hinata's words… How could a hot-headed tom boy have the patience to deal with shy little Hinata? Hidan was surprised that he could do it himself but he remembered Hinata's cute, innocent face. That was enough to calm Hidan's nerves about the common stuttering and blushing…

"Hina-chan! Why're you hanging out with this bastard?! He's apart of the Akatsuki and you should know better!"

Hinata shrunk beneath Temari's lecturing stare as Hidan seemed to stand in front of her, looking down to Temari with an annoyed look. Temari glared up at him, not liking the idea of Hinata hanging out with a criminal such as Hidan. You see, Temari has known Hinata for a very long time… When Temari first met Hinata, Hinata was being bullied once again by a small gang of girl's. Temari took the role to look after Hinata in the outside world. Surely, Hinata's father wouldn't do that for her and Neji wasn't always with his younger cousin since he was moved down to a different house. Also, Hinata already had the responsibility to take care of her sister, Hanabi. Temari has always stuck up for Hinata and always made sure that she was safe. It was no surprise that Temari was so protective over Hinata.

"Calm the fuck down, Sabaku. Hinata-chan doesn't need to listen to a bitch like you. Leave her be."

"Shut the fuck up! You have no idea who Hinata is so you better shut the hell up! I'm the only one who has taken care of her so Fuck off!!"

"G-Guy's…? E-Everyone I-is staring…"

"Not now Hinata! Now listen here, Hidan. You stay away from Hinata or I'll personally make you stay away from her!"

"G-Guy's!"

"We'll see, Bitch. Hinata is her own person so don't try acting so high and mighty!"

"STOP ARGUING!! EVERYONE IS STARING AND I AM BOTH OF YOUR FRIENDS!"

Hidan and Temari turned and looked at Hinata in shock. She didn't stutter AND she yelled at them. Wow. Hinata smiled, taking a deep breath. "I-I'm sorry for y-y-yelling but I-I needed t-to tell y-you guy's that I-I am both your friends."

"B-But Hina-chan! How could you be friends with him?"

"Is there something wrong with me?" Hidan barked, glaring at Temari.

Before the two started yet another argument, Hinata quickly pushed herself between the two. "L-Look… Hidan I-is one of my n-n-new friends. He h-helped me get n-n-new friends to, s-so it's no p-p-problem…"

Temari looked over to Hidan suspiciously while Hidan just wore a smirk. Temari sighed and wrapped her arms around Hinata, pulling her into a hug. "Fiiine, Hina-chan~ Just don't get into too much trouble." Hidan glared at Temari while Hinata easily slipped out of Temari's hug. She sighed softly and pushed three desks together while Temari and Hidan were 'Apologizing.' The three sat down and Hinata studied the newspaper's, already making mental notes for a few of the topic's. Hidan and Temari didn't bother, being used to having failing grades or just pushing them up at the last minute.

As the two began to either chat aimlessly or throw insults at each other, Hinata found a peculiar looking article. A murder had recently happened… The night before to be exact… They found a body with all four limbs chopped off. It was a bit odd because the killer nailed each of the limbs to the wall in a row and above the four limbs was a bloody symbol of the word, Love. The Kanji of Love had reminded her too much of her red haired friend, Gaara. But Hinata was certain that the murder and Gaara were not related at all.

Hinata began to write the two paged report while Hidan and Temari continued to chat. It seemed rather odd that a cold-hearted killer would use the Kanji symbol: "Love" as a sign… It also seemed odd at how Gaara had the exact same symbol tattooed to the left side of his forehead… Hinata shook the thought's of Gaara being a serial killer out of her head. It would be wrong to accuse your Best friends brother and your own friend for being a serial killer just because of a minor coincidence.

"Eh? Hinata-chan…? You ok…? You look a bit… troubled…," Hidan replied, noticing the pressure that Hinata was putting on the pencil she was using.

Hinata nodded, smiling sheepishly at the dark pencil marks in the paper. She neatly held both of the paper's and signed her name as well as putting both of Hidan and Temari's name. Hinata quietly stood up and walked toward the front of the room, placing the paper's on the desk of the Teacher, Kurenai. Hinata smiled when she noticed how messy Kurenai's desk was. Paper's scattered all across the desk, cute little knickknack's almost piling off the desk, picture's of different students on the wall and computer. Oddly… Kurenai reminded Hinata a lot of her mother…

"Hmmm? Your finished with your report already…?"

"H-Hai…"

"Kinda odd," Kurenai murmured, looking over Hinata's writing. "Usually… I'd expect a lazy worker since your friends with Hidan and Temari. Neither of the two do anything and their grades are horrible…"

Hinata frowned, hearing Kurenai's words about both her friends' grades. Hinata would tutor Temari and possibly if Hidan accepted it… She would tutor him too. Kurenai quickly wrote down the grade, which was an obvious A, and handed Hinata back the paper, smiling.

"Keep up the good work, Ms. Hyuuga."

Hinata smiled sweetly and bowed before walking back to her friends. She explained to her friends that they got a passing grade for the assignment and were allowed to do as they pleased, which they were already doing. Hinata silently pulled out her schedule and checked her next period. Lunch. Hinata smiled and slid her schedule back inside the book bag. She packed up all her stuff and waited for the Bell to ring.

"Even if I don't trust you or any of your comrades… You'll take care of Hinata… Right?" Temari had asked, looking over to Hidan. Hidan smirked at Temari's pouting and defeated expression.

"Of course I will… She'll be in the Akatsuki soon so it's better treating her as if she's already in the Akatsuki."

Temari's eyes widened and right when she was about to say something, she was silenced by the bell. Sighing, Temari stood and began to bid her farewells to the two. Once Temari left, Hidan turned to Hinata and grinned, replying "Shall we get over to the cafeteria? It would probably be best if you met the rest of the Akatsuki." Hinata nodded and stood up, walking out the door with Hidan. The two walked down the Hallway as a question suddenly formed in Hinata's mind. She looked up to Hidan and shyly asked, "A-Ano… Hidan… Is getting into the Akatsuki hard…?"

"Depends on the person… Our Leader, Pein, Get's to the person's personal information and switches around the person's weaknesses so that he can see whether the person really wants to get into the Akatsuki… Or if the person's nothing special."

Hinata's eyes widened when she realized just what Hidan had said. The leader would look through the personal information of her. What if he found out about the Hospital and The Asylum? That would ruin Hinata's life if anyone except for Temari knew about those two things. It wasn't her fault… was it…? There was no way that Pein would find out about Hinata's past. She burned it all with the hospital. Pein would have nothing to use against her. Right?

"Hinata…? You ok…? You seem a little… sick."

"I-I'm fine," Hinata reassured with a bright smile. "Let's j-just m-m-meet the o-other member's."

Hidan nodded, staring at Hinata with curious eyes. Deciding it was nothing, He shrugged and walked inside the cafeteria with Hinata behind him. Everyone stared at the two… Especially Sasuke. Hidan stopped when he reached a table that was pressed against the lower left corner of the cafeteria. There, Hinata saw Deidara chatting with a nice looking red head and Tobi was hanging around an odd-looking boy. She also noticed that Kisame was chatting with a boy who had several tattoo's of stitches on his face. Kinda odd but… Hinata could put up with it.

"Oi Hidan, you caught yourself another bitch?"

That nickname was too familiar for Hinata… Brings back some of those cold memories from her middle school years… Hidan glared darkly at the boy who had the stitch tattoo's while Hinata averted her eyes to the floor and grew a bit sad. "Hinata-sama…?"

Hinata turned to meet the eyes of her friend, Itachi Uchiha. "O-Onii-sama!" Hinata ran over to Itachi and hugged him, Itachi chuckling warmly and hugging back.

"Onii-sama?!" All the Akatsuki member's yelled except for Sasori, Kakuzu, and Zetsu.

It was very confusing on how Hinata called Itachi 'Onii-sama' when it's true that the two come from a different family. Uchiha Itachi and Hinata Hyuuga. Hinata call's Itachi "Onii-sama" Because Itachi has always been there for Hinata in her life. Sure, Hinata had Temari but Hinata first met Itachi when she was five. While little Sasuke treated her like she wasn't human… Itachi treated her life a fragile flower in need of care. Ever since that day, Itachi and Hinata had been very good friends but the only problem was that their two families would have an on and off good relationship. One day they would be fighting. The other they'd be perfectly fine.

"I didn't know that you'd be entering this school…" Itachi replied, studying Hinata's new appearance. She smiled up to him and nodded cutely while the Akatsuki stared at the two. It seemed that the two 'Siblings' didn't explain why they were siblings when they were nothing alike. Itachi sighed and explained to the Akatsuki, and a few of the nosy fan girl's that heard that Itachi had a sister, of the relationship between himself and Hinata. Not real siblings but close enough to be real siblings.

"Oh… That would've been a bit weird, un. By the way, Hina-hime, Me and Tobi were able to come in contact with Pein. It seems that he wants to meet you first before he can decide whether you'll be suited for the Akatsuki."

Itachi, Sasori, Kakuzu, and Zetsu looked over to Hinata in slight interest. Itachi was a bit surprised that Hinata would want to become a member of their group. It was a bit odd for someone as delicate as Hinata to want to be in a group as ruthless as the Akatsuki. She smiled and nodded as Sasori, Zetsu and Kakuzu stared at her, not knowing who she was.

Seeing that it was proper manner's, Hinata bowed and softly introduced herself, "M-My name I-I-is Hyuuga H-Hinata. I-It is nice t-t-to meet you a-all."

Hinata looked up and smiled at the three, taking the time to study the three. The red head had warm amber eyes that seemed to be wonderfully calm. His skin was lighter than Deidara's tan skin but not as pale as Hinata's own skin. His crimson hair held a few black strips of hair that looked natural but she wasn't too sure. The odd-looking fellow had a very odd skin tone. One side was a ghastly pale white while the other was darker. Not dark brown but almost seemed like his skin was shifting to an inky black. On top of that, His eyes were a piercing yellow that sent shiver's down Hinata's back. Zetsu's hair however wasn't yellow, black, nor white. It was a forest green that shined proudly in the light. Now onto the last, there was the boy with odd tattoo's. His skin was darker than the rest of the member's that she had met. On his arms were the tattoo's of different looking stitches that covered his arms, legs, neck, and face. His face was kind of odd since the stitches ran around his mouth, looking like he didn't have a mouth at all, just a stitch that formed a mouth. But Hinata could easily see his lips so he wasn't sewed up or anything. His eyes were a luminescent green and his hair was fairly long, the color black.

"Hello… I am Akasuna Sasori. Very nice to meet you, Hinata-san." Spoke the red head who charmingly introduced himself.

"Mmhmm. Very nice to meet you, Hinata. I am Kakuzu."

"Right, nice to meet you Hinata-chan. What freakish eyes. Be nice. Hmph. And I am… Zet- Su."

What an odd man. Split personalities… Interesting but very Peculiar. Hinata bit her bottom lip, looking deep into her mind. Could these boy's possibly accept her as a friend…? Would she be able to become a member of the Akatsuki and row tougher, showing up that pitiful prick… Uchiha Sasuke? These people looked at her as a sweet girl who couldn't cause her any harm in any way. Well sadly… They were wrong… Hinata could be able to do more than damage… She just needed something… Or someone to awaken the darkness that lived deeply in Hinata. Could the Akatsuki make her tougher… and give her the love that she needed…?
